Alpine Orchard - Chapter 268
[Chapter 268 I have to eat, there is no way]
divide some people to go home and cook.
The people left behind hastened their movements.
Some people picked watermelons, and some helped to load them.
Ripe watermelons are basically picked out, and the workers who transport watermelons are still transporting watermelons.
The watermelon picked today is estimated to be seventy or eighty tons. Thirty or forty people is still not an easy job.
“Boss Ye, I’m a little dizzy.” Ji Zhicai’s wife’s face was flushed, and her clothes were already soaked in sweat.
Seeing that she was not in good condition, Ye Mo quickly brought a chair: “Take a break. Besides dizziness, do you have any other symptoms?”
“Dizziness, weakness.”
“Sit and rest…” Ye Mo brought her salt tea : “Drink less. Master Ji…” Ye Mo shouted.
“Hey.” Ji Zhicai ran over.
“Big Sister Liang must be suffering from heat stroke.” Ye Mo said, “Just wait a moment. If Aunt Liang feels uncomfortable, please tell us.”
“I’m fine, it’s just heat stroke.”
“Heat stroke is a serious matter .” Little girl, don’t hold on.” Li Xuebin came over and said, “If you want to vomit, you need to be sent to the hospital.”
“It’s just dizziness and weakness in the limbs. It’s nothing serious…” Sister Liang looked at Ji Zhicai : “Go to work, I’ll take a break.”
“If you feel particularly uncomfortable, tell me quickly, don’t procrastinate.” Ji Zhicai said.
“Don’t worry, I know.”
Ji Zhicai said: “It should be fine, I’ll continue to work. She’ll just rest here for a while.”
Ye Mo took a look, came to the side of the female worker who helped pack the watermelons, and said : “Sister Liang has some heatstroke. If you feel uncomfortable, go to rest, don’t hold on.”
“We’re fine.”
It is not the first time that workers suffer from heat stroke.
The temperature is too high. Doing heavy work in the open air can easily lead to heat stroke. Some time ago, several people suffered from heatstroke.
Ye Mo looked at Sister Zhou, who had glanced at herself just now…
“Sister Zhou, are you feeling unwell?” Ye Mo said.
“A little bit.”
“Go to rest, everyone go to rest. Rest for a while, go home and help make dinner.” Ye Mo waved his hand and said.
“Go and rest. We men will do the rest of the work.” Master Liu said.
“Don’t hold on anymore.” Ye Mo shouted.
Everyone quit work.
Ye Mo also called Zhou Yue and the others: “Go and rest for a while and eat some watermelon.”
The high temperature is really exhausting.
People like Tang Xun’s father and father-in-law have long gone to sit and rest.
Ye Mo went over and gave each of them a Huoxiang Zhengqi Water. After everyone drank it, they began to eat watermelon.
“This terrible weather…” Li Xuebin walked over with a watermelon in his arms.
Ye Mo was looking at the weather forecast, and said, “The weather forecast says that there will be rain tomorrow.”
“Really?”
“I saw the forecast from the weather station in Dongmen Town.”
“This…” Li Xuebin hesitated, and said: ” Then these watermelons have to be loaded overnight.”
“It’s best to pretend to leave overnight .” “Okay
, I’ll call Lao Zhou.”
It was almost eight o’clock, and the watermelon truck was finally loaded.
There are still a lot of watermelons in the field that have not been delivered…
“Master Liu, Master Zhang… have to work overtime today to load all the watermelons away.” Ye Mo said, “The weather forecast says it will rain in the
evening .” It was past twelve o’clock.
In summer, it is very normal to rain at night.
The rain is concentrated after nine o’clock in the evening…or it is midnight.
Master Liu and the others nodded.
Back in the dormitory building, dinner has been prepared, and there are still crayfish left.
“Save the crayfish for supper.” Ye Mo said, “Eat first, after dinner… I have to work overtime at night.”
“Have you finished moving the watermelons?” Lin Xiaomian said.
“There is still a little left. Then there is loading…” Ye Mo looked at Sister Liang, and Sister Zhou said, “Sister Liang, are you feeling better?”
“Much better.” Sister Liang said, “Today’s temperature is too high I ca n’t bear it anymore.”
Seeing that Sister Liang could make jokes, Ye Mo felt relieved, and said, “Work overtime at night… If you feel unwell, you can rest at home. Like overtime pay, high temperature subsidies, etc., Let’s count.”
Zhou Yue laughed and said: “There is also a high temperature subsidy.”
“I will give you a salary increase, and I will give you a little more foreign name.” In the
evening, there will be mung bean and millet porridge, pig’s trotters, braised pork ribs, and roast chicken with potatoes. , pork belly, and bacon. These cured meats were contributed by Second Uncle Xiao Mian…
“Don’t drink too much alcohol, after working overtime at night, eat supper before drinking.” Lin Shan said.
“Don’t worry, don’t delay your work.”
Sitting next to Ye Mo, Li Xuebin also poured beer into a bowl: “It’s like this in agriculture. As long as it’s a ripe season, no matter how hot it is, you have to grit your teeth and finish the work. Otherwise, when the time passes, The previous hard work will be in vain…”
Watermelons are sold to other places, and they need to be transported long distances, so they need to be picked carefully.
Someone once said such a sentence: Farmers… just compete with God for food.
“The temperature is a little higher today. But when it comes to hard work, it’s really nothing.” Father Ye said, “Mangoes are grown in our hometown, and a lot of mangoes are grown on steep hillsides. In some remote mango orchards, the mangoes have to be carried To get to the side of the main road, you have to climb hundreds of meters or even kilometers of steep slopes…”
“Climbing steep slopes with your back on your back is not something ordinary people can bear.” Zhou Yue said.
“Wow, there is no way to eat.”
Everyone smiled. To eat, no matter how hard and tiring the work, you still have to do it.
“This damn weather has never been so hot in our hometown, Chuncheng.” Zhou Yue said, “How long will this high temperature last?”
“Who knows.”
A few days ago, the highest temperature exceeded 40 degrees Celsius of.
Fortunately, it didn’t exceed forty degrees Celsius today, otherwise, it would be really annoying.
“The temperature is high. If any body is uncomfortable, don’t carry it hard.” Ye Mo said: “I read on the news that a few days ago, it was extremely hot in Huacheng.”
High temperature summer, especially some extreme heat The weather is so hot, it’s really not a joke, nor is it an adjective.
After drinking a bottle of beer and eating some food to rest his belly on, Ye Mo went to the melon field to set up lights.
It was not yet dark.
It was completely dark when the lights were installed.
Li Xuebin’s car also came over.
It is estimated that there are still four or five acres of watermelons that have not been moved here, and the rest of the watermelons are in the melon shed…
a large truck can hold 23 tons.
Because there is no weighing and it is loaded directly into the truck, it looks like loading… 212 tons, it is almost the same. Don’t dare to install too much, for fear of overloading.
Three female workers were not feeling well and were resting in the dormitory. The rest of the people all came over.
More than a dozen people helped to load the car, plus the people from Li Xuebin’s side, there were twenty people who loaded the car.
There are eight people on Ye Mo’s side, carrying watermelons.
it’s dark.
It was still a bit stuffy, but it was much better than in the afternoon.
A truck weighs more than 20 tons. There are many people loading the truck and the speed is fast. A truck can be filled in less than an hour.
I was busy until after twelve o’clock before I finished packing the watermelon.
A total of three and a half cars were loaded today.
The last half of the car was estimated to be more than ten tons. These were sent back to the company, and another car was shipped.
