The next day, Zhao Tianyang did not sit at the table to draw the design drawings of light and heavy machine guns, but brought several soldiers to Chiyu Village.

The design drawings of light and heavy machine guns were too simple for him. It was just a matter of choosing a weapon and copying it.

If it wasn't for the purpose of training Liu Ding and others' creativity, he would have drawn the blueprints long ago and asked them to do it accordingly.

"Here you are, Chief. Here are the chicks you requested. There are thirty in total, and one hundred eggs."

The village chief pointed to the chicks in a cage not far away and the eggs in a bamboo basket next to them and said.

"Okay, how about I pay it back with two bottles of Fenjiu this time?"

Zhao Tianyang raised the Fenjiu in his hand and shook it, then asked.

"Fenjiu!"

The village chief took the bottle with a look of surprise and asked, "Is it produced in Xinghua Village?"

"what!"

Zhao Tianyang scratched his head in confusion: "Is there any difference?"

"Of course there is a difference."

The village chief patiently explained: "Fenjiu is divided into Laobai Fenjiu, Zhuyeqing Fenjiu, Rose Fenjiu, and Baiyu Fenjiu."

"Among them, Laobai Fenjiu, which is the Fenjiu produced in Xinghua Village, is the best tasting one. Of course, it is also the most expensive one!"

“There are so many details to consider!”

Zhao Tianyang looked like he had learned something: "But I'm not sure what brand of wine this is. I just know it tastes long and sweet."

"That should be Laobai Fenjiu!"

The village chief said a little uncertainly.

"You know so much about wine, just open it and smell it and you'll know!"

Zhao Tianyang suggested.

"Forget it, it's worthless if you open it!"

The village chief shook his head, picked up the bottle, looked at it carefully, then put it away carefully, preparing to sell it at the next market.

"By the way, how is the construction of the cement plant going?"

At this time, Zhao Tianyang asked about the other purpose of this visit.

"It should be almost finished. A few days ago, a young man in our village asked me when he could go to work at the cement factory!"

The village chief replied.

"Row."

Zhao Tianyang thought for a moment and said, "In a week at most, the cement factory will be able to start operations. However, you also know that our arsenal is not very well-off right now. Can we discuss the wages?"

Upon hearing this, the village chief's face froze, and he explained awkwardly: "Our village can now have enough food thanks to the Eighth Route Army. Logically speaking, if the arsenal is in trouble, we should all volunteer to help without any wages."

"But we also need to eat. If we work for the cement factory, we won't be able to take care of farming, so you should at least give us some money for food!"

"How about this, after the cement factory is built, you can ask everyone to do the work when there is work, and we will give you three pounds of corn flour a day."

"And normally, you can bring in your own work and use our cement factory to produce it yourself. How about we split the money we earn?"

"also."

The village chief thought for a moment and said, "If we can do the work ourselves and make money, I can let those young people help the arsenal produce cement for free!"

"Then it's a deal!"

Zhao Tianyang and the village chief touched their palms together and made a gentleman's agreement.

After discussing the cement factory, Zhao Tianyang returned to the arsenal with the chicks, eggs, and two hundred kilograms of river sand.

As soon as he came back, he first found Li Mutou and asked him to make a few large wooden boxes for eggs, and then called a security guard who was on patrol.

"What does the Section Chief want to talk to me about?"

Niu Erli asked while holding a Taihang Type 2 cavalry rifle.

"Please help me and call a few more people. I want to build a cement pool to raise some animals."

As for what it was, Zhao Tianyang didn't say, for fear that they would be disgusted.

"Oh, oh, okay!"

Niu Erli nodded, ran back and put his newly acquired beloved gun in the corner, then called four security guards to come to Zhao Tianyang.

"Niu Erli, you and Wang Sangui should level the land behind the toilet. It will only take about six square meters!"

"The rest of you follow me to mix cement."

"Yes."x5

This time, Zhao Tianyang chose earth cement to build the cement pool. It is made of clay, river sand, limestone, and coal powder, and then mixed with water.

Because the process was simple, Zhao Tianyang and three other security guards spent only three hours mixing the cement needed to build the cement pool.

Coincidentally, Niu Erli and Wang Sangui had also completed the land leveling work.

"Section Chief, why are you building a cement pool? You even have to build it behind the toilet. It stinks!"

Niu Erli complained with a bitter face as he touched the cement floor.

"what?"

Zhao Tianyang smiled evilly and said, "You will know later!"

Two hours later, a cement pool with an area of ​​six square meters and a depth of one meter appeared in front of Zhao Tianyang and others.

"Huh~~Finally done!"

Zhao Tianyang took off his cotton stuffy nose and said, "It's getting late, let's go eat!"

"Oh!"

A few people replied in a low voice, it’s not that they are not interested in eating, it’s just that they have just worked next to the toilet for most of the day and now have no appetite.

However, although they had no appetite, they still ate two large bowls of corn paste and five steamed buns when they arrived at the cafeteria.

"The wooden box you requested, Section Chief, has been made."

At this time, Li Mutou found Zhao Tianyang with four large wooden boxes.

"Okay, go eat first!"

Zhao Tianyang took the wooden box and stopped Niu Erli and his men who were about to run away: "Wait a moment, I need your help."

"I'm coming!"

Niu Erli could only run back with a few people.

Zhao Tianyang took a few people to the warehouse first, took out some cotton and hay, and then went to the tent to take out the eggs in his room.

"Hey, the section chief also raises chickens!"

Niu Erli asked with a smile as he looked at the chicks in six large cages outside the tent.

"Why, you want to raise one too?"

Zhao Tianyang glanced at him and said without hesitation: "Okay, I'll satisfy you. When you come back later, you can take all these chicks back. From now on, your security team will be responsible for raising these chicks. You can ask Comrade Liu Ransheng for food."

"what!"

Niu Erli was anxious. Why did he have to raise chickens just for asking one more question? "No, I... Chief, can you discuss this with me again?"

"No room for negotiation, this is an order!"

Zhao Tianyang said with a straight face.

"All right!"

Niu Erli felt like the sky was falling.

"Brother Niu, you are amazing. I want to see how you explain it to your brothers when you go back."

Wang Sangui on the side said in a low voice, gritting his teeth.

"I don't want this to happen!"

Niu Erli muttered.

"What are you talking about? Hurry up and catch up!"

At this time, Zhao Tianyang turned around and found that Niu Erli and Wang Sangui were lagging behind and had not caught up for a long time, so he couldn't help but urge them.

"I'm coming!"

In the blast furnace area, Zhao Tianyang felt the temperature from the blast furnace with his body, and then placed the large wooden box in an area with a temperature of 38 degrees.

Then he asked Niu Erli and others to put eggs and cotton into a wooden box and sprinkle some water on it. Finally, he covered the wooden box with a large amount of hay to keep it moist.

"That should be enough!"

Zhao Tianyang looked at the wooden box that was completely covered with hay and said a little uncertainly.

"Is the section chief hatching chicks?"

At this time Niu Erli couldn't help but ask.

"Why, you want to do it again?"

"No no!"

Niu Erli was so scared that he shook his head repeatedly: "Chief, please don't scare me. I know a little about raising chickens, but I don't know how to hatch chicks!"

"Okay, just kidding!"

Zhao Tianyang waved his hand: "You are tired after a day, go back and rest!"

"Yes, goodbye, Chief." x5

After saying that, the five security guards disappeared in a flash.
