Chapter 231 Small Generator
Chapter 231 Small Generator
After everyone left, Lin Panpan returned to the study and began drawing the blueprints.
On the drawing spread out in front of her was the design of a small generator that she had sketched out stroke by stroke.
This was in 1973. Although industrial technology had developed, electricity was still a scarce resource in rural areas, and Linjia Village still had no electricity.
The small generator in the drawing has a simple appearance. It is a rectangular block with a shell made of thick cast iron.
On the front is a simple operation panel with a small voltage adjustment knob that can fine-tune the output voltage according to the needs of different electrical appliances.
For Linjia Village, the role of this small generator is beyond imagination.
With it, the electrical appliances in villagers' homes are no longer just decorations.
At night, dim light bulbs can replace dim kerosene lamps to illuminate children's homework books, allowing them to study seriously under bright light.
In summer, electric fans can rotate slowly to dispel the sultry summer heat and allow villagers to sleep well.
During the busy farming season, electric threshers and small irrigation pumps can also come in handy, greatly improving labor efficiency and reducing the burden on villagers.
The second drawing is a hand tractor, which is small in size and easy to operate, and farmers can easily control it.
The main body of the vehicle is a sturdy metal frame, equipped with a powerful single-cylinder engine to provide power to the entire machine.
A plow with adjustable depth is connected to the back, which can easily turn over thick soil for tillage operations.
The driver's seat is simple but practical. Farmers can sit comfortably on it and flexibly control the tractor's forward, reverse and steering through the joystick.
This is much more practical than a tractor, and farms really need such a tractor.
The farm in Eagle's Beak Peak is so huge and so hidden that no one would notice if you were farming there.
Now the villagers rely on the land here to make a living, but now Lin Panpan can do more things, and there is no problem in leading the entire village to become rich.
Now Lin Panpan mainly makes money by making banquets, but now she has a machinery factory.
A machinery factory can also employ a lot of people. The banquet needs people, and the machinery factory also needs people.
She planned to let the abducted women in the village come over first and try it out.
Early the next morning, Lin Panpan returned home and began to select people.
Lin Dashan smiled widely and gathered all the villagers together, saying, "Panpan, take a look at whichever one you like and take it away..."
Lin Panpan looked at her father speechlessly and said, "Dad, why are you making such a fuss?"
"Hey! Isn't this for your own good? Take away whoever you like. The children in our village are all very good." Lin Dashan was really happy in her heart. Whose daughter could be as promising as hers?
Didn’t Zhou Erpao want to kill them?
Unfortunately, there was nothing he could do. He didn't know where Lin Panpan got the food from, but she was so capable that she could really feed every household.
Lin Panpan smiled and said, "I came back this time because I just bought a machinery factory, so I'm selecting a group of people to work there. I plan to bring all the people I kidnapped last time with me."
"Ah? Then why not bring people from our village with you?"
Lin Panpan looked at Lin Dashan helplessly and said:
"Dad, I want to take them all with me too! We still have to farm the land at home.
What's more, we also need manpower to prepare for the banquet, so how can we spare anyone to go to the machinery factory?
But there are a dozen or so good people, I'll take them with me!"
Lin Dashan smiled and said:
"I don't have any other thoughts. I just think that promoting others is not as good as promoting our own people.
The children in our village are all quite good. They can learn skills in the machinery factory, which is also a way out for the children in our village."
In fact, Lin Dashan is also very uncomfortable with the current situation.
Originally, everyone could get work points, but now they are gone, and he always feels that he owes the village."
Lin Panpan looked at Lin Dashan and said:
“Dad, I actually think working in the fields all your life is not the only way out.
There are many career options in the future, such as business and labor, and there are top talents in every field."
Lin Dashan said calmly: "We have been eliminated by the times. We just think that we can just dig for food in the fields all our lives and eat our fill."
"Yes! Times are changing, and we must change too.
"Dad, I'll take them to the factory to get used to it first. When all the machines in the factory are ready, you can come and take a look!" Lin Panpan said.
Lin Dashan nodded and said, "Okay..."
Just as he finished speaking, he saw Chen Tao coming over and said, "Panpan..."
Lin Panpan looked at him with a smile and said, "Isn't this the commune secretary?"
Chen Tao sighed and said, "Don't mention whether I'm the secretary or not. I'm afraid I can't do a stable job as the secretary."
Lin Panpan looked at him and asked, "What do you mean?"
"Hey! Zhou Erpao is always making trouble, talking about the last time the commune distributed supplies.
I didn't even see the shadow of so many fertilizers and new seeds. He took them all away and sent them to his own trusted team.
And all those tractors were also seized by him and distributed among his own people."
Lin Panpan frowned and looked at Chen Tao: "Then you have to report this to the higher-ups!"
Chen Tao smiled bitterly and shook his head slowly:
"Do you think I didn't go? But the higher-ups said that as the commune secretary, these matters had to be resolved internally.
I always report this to them, and they find it annoying. Zhou Erpao has a strange relationship with his superiors.
Those people are on his side, deliberately distributing all the supplies to him. Now I am passive everywhere and cannot move."
Lin Panpan was speechless: "Don't you have anyone above you?"
"No one. Last time I invited their superiors to dinner, but no one paid any attention to me. Now one of my team leaders has also defected to Zhou Erpao." To be honest, Chen Tao felt very uncomfortable. It was not easy to be the secretary of the commune. Sometimes he didn't even want to do it anymore.
Lin Panpan looked at him and said, "Don't be discouraged. This is because Zhou Sanpao has already set up the attack."
Chen Tao took a puff of his cigarette and said, "Actually, I understand the logic, but if I don't take this position, Zhou Erpao will definitely become lawless, and then the people will suffer."
"Yes, that's the truth. What do you think?"
Chen Tao looked at her and said, "Panpan, you are more decisive than me. What do you think we should do about this?"
Lin Panpan smiled and said, "Well... let's do it the old way! You don't have to show up. I'll help you with it when the time comes. We can split the fertilizers and other things in half, how about that?"
Chen Tao thought about it and nodded, "Okay, it all depends on you. I'll stay at home and let a few of my men help you when the time comes."
