Traveling through ancient times.

Chapter 133 It’s an Engineer

Zhang Danniu and Zhang Ni also feel a great sense of accomplishment. They are now respected in Yunshan.

When people see their parents, the first thing they think of is: You must be the father (mother) of Master Zhang, you are really amazing. By the way, my son (daughter) also likes to do carpentry work, can you tell Master Zhang...

Now, both parents are very proud.

Those matchmakers are about to break the door threshold.

In the past, girls like them who were willing to endure hardships and make trouble were very popular, but the matchmaking families were basically the kind that were very poor and just waited for them to give a dowry and provide free labor to start a new family.

Now, they are basically all the well-known and wealthy families in the local area, those who have businesses in the town.

Of course, they were also impressed by their carpentry skills.

However, both of them are not in a hurry to get married.

They love the sense of accomplishment of creation, just like this.

Besides, they have been staying in the farm for a long time, and their lives are fulfilling and simple every day. Just look at the head of the family and you will know how free and easy it is to be alone.

They saw many other women who came to the farm to work. Those who were married basically carried one child on their backs or in their arms. Sometimes the child cried, sometimes the child fell down... anyway, it was all women's business.

After finishing the work, she would receive her salary from the farm one moment and hand it over to her husband or parents-in-law the next.

When they saw this, they felt inexplicably frightened and subconsciously held their purses tightly.

They asked these women why they brought their children with them when they came to work, and why they didn't leave them to other people to help take care of them.

The woman said as a matter of course: This is our business.

They then asked why he didn't keep the money for himself.

The woman said: We all know how much they are paid every day. If we keep them, they will be unhappy...they will...

Zhang Ni and Zhang Danniu knew that many daughters-in-law were beaten and scolded at their husband’s homes, but after chatting with them in person, they realized that the reality was more cruel than they had imagined.

But these women are very happy, they say, now they can work on the farm, can also earn money. So although they still do a lot of work, but obviously, the parents-in-law and husbands treat them better, they will not beat them for no reason.

Zhang Ni and Zhang Danniu both felt inexplicable fear.

To use the words of Jiang Yizhou's own world: fear of marriage.

Of course, this is just a wave of weak temperament.

Some women have stronger personalities. After all, they can earn money, so naturally they want to fight for some say for themselves.

However, the process of striving for it in the early stages is still a bit difficult, and quarrels and fights are inevitable.

But once you have fought for the position you deserve and continue to work and earn money, you will naturally stand up straight.

However, in the eyes of Zhang Ni, one has to work hard to gain a little respect and freedom after getting married. If she doesn't get married, her money is hers, her freedom is hers, everything is hers...how great is that.

As soon as they said this, their parents immediately became anxious.

Although the two have now become serious female masters, women still have to get married and have children after all.

I'm already an older girl. If I continue like this, what will happen to me in the future?

Only with children can you have someone to rely on in the future, and only then can you...

Then, as soon as they said that, the two of them decisively returned to the farm and to their own woodworking workshops.

Therefore, the parents of these two girls are now happy and proud of their daughters' abilities, but they are also worried about their life-long affairs.

I was worried before, and I am still worried now.

… Zhang Ni and Zhang Da Nv are now running the woodworking studio very successfully.

They were basically separated from the ordinary work and handed it over to the new apprentices.

They spend all day thinking about new machines, improving some of the old machines, and so on.

The person they are most grateful to and admire the most is Jiang Yizhou.

When Jiang Yizhou was at Yunshan Farm, he often went to the carpentry workshop to discuss drawings with them.

But after the beginning of this year, Jiang Yizhou went back to his old house to deal with some things. It took him several months to come back, but he left again not long after staying.

This time they finally had the chance to stay with Jiang Yizhou legitimately, and they seemed very excited.

Especially Zhang Ni, she has a free and lively personality.

They told Jiang Yizhou everything they had encountered during this period, whether it was problems with machine drawings or trivialities in life.

Including the fact that their parents are urging them to get married.

Jiang Yizhou would not say much about this.

What conclusion you come to depends entirely on the perspective from which you view and understand it.

Whether it is Zhang Ni and Zhang Danniu, or their parents, they all make sense.

It is up to them to decide their lifelong affairs.

However, Jiang Yizhou can still express his own views on these overturned water trucks.

So he said: "This water wheel is pretty good, but it still takes up a lot of space. Only one can be placed in a well, and the water output is very limited. Can it be made smaller..."

Zhang Da Niu said: "These are all made of wood. We need to consider the degree of stress. This is the only way. If these core components are replaced with iron, it should be reduced by one third."

Zhang Ni took over the conversation: "As for iron tools, they can be made, but they will rust easily when placed in water."

Jiang Yizhou hummed and nodded. That's right, there is no stainless steel, special waterproof paint, lubricating oil, etc.

After thinking for a while, he said, "Is there anything more convenient and labor-saving?"

Zhang Daniu said: "In addition to using oxen to pull the water, there are also water-turning wheels that can be pedaled by humans. We will make them and send them to you when the time comes."

Jiang Yizhou nodded in agreement repeatedly, feeling very relieved.

She had decided to give them space to develop freely, and her decision was truly wise.

Xiao Tongzi: "..."

After ensuring that the water truck was in normal use and there was nothing wrong, Zhang Ni and Zhang Danv stayed here for another day. Without an excuse to stay any longer, they had to return to Yunshan Farm.

Jiang Yizhou instructed Liao Qi to escort them back well and not let anything go wrong.

After seeing off the two young engineers, Jiang Yizhou inspected the progress of the various projects on the wasteland and thought about the next plan:

With more convenient water-drawing tools, the progress of wasteland reclamation has been much faster.

After the house was repaired, the next step was to plan the irrigation canals. After all, the grass and trees needed to be watered frequently, and it was impossible to carry water from such a long distance manually every time. That would be too labor-intensive.

The planting work is left to Yunxin, and the water conservancy planning is left to Yucui.

Jiang Yizhou began to walk around the barren mountains, listening to Xiao Tongzi's analysis in his mind: Can we build a cement workshop here? !

Xiao Tongzi: “That’s right.”
