The Age of Rebirth: Winning since the educated youth went to the countryside

The next morning, Zhou Ziwen woke up from his sleep.

After waking up, he opened the hang-up panel and took a look.

【Carpentry LV10】(7/1000)

In the panel, the carpentry skill has reached level ten.

After this skill reached level ten, Zhou Ziwen felt that his understanding and mastery of carpentry had reached a whole new level.

He can use a variety of wood to make extremely exquisite furniture and handicrafts, and can easily complete complex carvings and delicate mortise and tenon structures.

Since he had nothing to do at home during this period, he decided to replace all the furniture in his house.

Especially the tables and chairs at home, they are a bit worn out because they have been used for so long.

It just so happened that when he made the crib last time, he also bought a set of woodworking tools, which made it convenient for him to make furniture.

But he had no wood, so he needed to go find some.

It was different from when we were in the countryside. In the countryside, if we wanted wood, we would just go to the mountains and cut it. We could use any tree we wanted. As long as it was for our own use, the production team wouldn't say anything.

But it’s different in the city, where you have to pay for wood.

But this amount of money is nothing to Zhou Ziwen.

After breakfast, Zhou Ziwen said hello to his family and went out to buy wood.

In the city, if you want to buy wood, you can go to the lumber mill, but you also need a ticket to buy wood from the lumber mill.

Zhou Ziwen didn't have any timber ticket, so he could only buy it at the scrap recycling station.

There is everything in the recycling station, including some old furniture.

Zhou Ziwen planned to get some old furniture, then dismantle it and modify it into the wood he needed.

He came to the scrap recycling station, which was filled with all kinds of debris and exuded a stale smell.

He searched carefully in the recycling bin and finally found some old furniture that seemed to be still usable.

He picked out a few worn-out tables and chairs, which, though somewhat worn on the surface, were still structurally intact.

After Zhou Ziwen negotiated the price with the staff at the recycling station, he paid the money and started moving the old furniture back home.

Along the way, he attracted the attention of many passers-by, and everyone was curious about how he was moving these shabby furniture.

After returning home, Zhou Ziwen immediately began to dismantle the old furniture.

He skillfully used tools to disassemble tables and chairs and pick out useful wood.

During the dismantling process, Zhou Ziwen found that the quality of some of the wood was still good, but some parts were damaged due to long-term use.

He decided to save the good wood and use it to make new furniture.

Next, Zhou Ziwen began to process the wood according to his own design.

He used a saw to cut the wood into the right size, a plane to smooth the surface, and a chisel and hammer to create the mortise and tenon structure.

Seeing Zhou Ziwen busy in the yard alone, the neighbors around were very curious and came over to ask questions.

"Ziwen, what are you doing?" asked neighbor Uncle Li curiously.

Zhou Ziwen smiled and replied, "Uncle Li, I plan to use the wood from these old furniture to make some new furniture. The tables and chairs at home are all old and it's time to replace them."

"Wow, you can also make furniture? That's amazing!" neighbor Aunt Zhang praised.

"Yes, Ziwen's craftsmanship is no worse than that of the carpenters outside." Another neighbor nodded.

They were all amazed at Zhou Ziwen's skillful movements.

I remember that Zhou Ziwen would never do these things in the past.

Zhou Ziwen chatted with his neighbors while he was busy.

"Haha, I learned these skills in the countryside, so I just make do with them." Zhou Ziwen said modestly.

"Ziwen, you are too modest. Your craftsmanship is better than that of professional carpenters." Uncle Li said with a thumbs up.

"That's right. If my family needs any carpentry work in the future, I'll have to ask you for help." Aunt Zhang said with a smile.

Zhou Ziwen readily agreed: "No problem, Uncle Li, Aunt Zhang, we are neighbors, I will definitely help if I can."

It was really difficult for Zhou Ziwen to refuse this, and there was no need to refuse.

In this day and age, people are very humane and distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors. This is exactly what they are like.

Everyone chatted while watching Zhou Ziwen busying himself. After a while, Zhou Ziwen had almost finished processing the wood.

"Ziwen, you are really fast. At this rate, the new furniture will be ready soon, right?" asked a neighbor.

Zhou Ziwen wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "Well, it will take a few more days to finish the furniture."

The neighbors nodded one after another and praised Zhou Ziwen's abilities.

In the next few days, Zhou Ziwen continued to focus on making furniture. He carefully carved every detail, striving to make the furniture both beautiful and practical.

Finally, all the new furniture was completed. Zhou Ziwen placed them in his home, which instantly gave it a brand new look.

Mother Zhou and her sisters were very happy to see the new furniture.

"Ziwen, your furniture is so well made, it looks like new." Zhou Ma said with satisfaction.

"Little brother, you are amazing. These furniture are much better than what we had before." Second sister Zhou Yaqin also praised.

Zhou Ziwen smiled and said, "As long as you like it, I'll do it if you need anything in the future."

"That's enough, that's enough, why do so much!"

Mother Zhou loves her son dearly and doesn't want him to be too tired.

Looking at his son's busy figure, Dad Zhou couldn't help feeling a little emotional.

He knew that Zhou Ziwen must have suffered a lot during his time in the countryside, otherwise he would not be so skilled.

Dad Zhou walked up to Zhou Ziwen, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Ziwen, you have grown up and become sensible. Dad is proud of you."

Zhou Ziwen smiled and said, "Dad, this is what I should do."

In fact, he didn't really suffer much. After all, everything he has today is thanks to the auto-switch panel.

"Brother, can you help me make a dressing table? My table is too old."

Zhou Xiaomei came over attentively.

"Of course, little sister, just tell me what kind of dressing table you want." Zhou Ziwen nodded with a smile.

"I want one with a mirror, preferably a bigger one." Zhou Xiaomei said hurriedly.

"Okay, I'll make it for you tomorrow."

Zhou Ziwen nodded readily.

He only has this one sister, if he doesn't love her, who will?

"Thank you, brother!" Zhou Xiaomei thanked him happily.

"Haha, what are you thanking me for!" Zhou Ziwen waved his hand indifferently.

It's just a dressing table, and it only takes an hour or two to do.

There happens to be some waste at home, so I can just pick it out tomorrow.

The next day, Zhou Ziwen got up early. He glanced at Chen Qiaoyi who was sleeping soundly beside him, and a smile appeared on his face unconsciously.

As Chen Qiaoyi's belly grew bigger, the due date was getting closer.

He calculated the time and found that his daughter would be born in half a month.
