Chapter 848: An artifact for sweeping snow
In the evening, the Jones brothers lived in. The room where they slept was the guest room on the first floor, and Yang Jing's bedroom was on the second floor.
Perhaps because of the change of places, Yang Jing, who doesn't usually recognize the bed very much, rarely can't sleep tonight. I didn't fall asleep until more than two o'clock in a daze, and I didn't sleep well.
In the middle of the night, Yang Jing even heard that the Jones brothers got up twice, both of them went out to observe if there was any problem with the house.
The snow was too big, and in the words of Brother Jones, even they rarely saw such a snow. In order to prevent the thick snow from overwhelming the house, they even stepped on a ladder to scrape the snow off the roof once at night, tossing for nearly an hour.
In this regard, Yang Jing is also very satisfied. In modern society, there are really not many young Americans who have such commitments and are willing to endure hardships, but the Jones brothers still maintain that relatively simple style, which is really rare.
When I got up the next morning, the snow was much smaller, but I still insisted. I stood in front of the bedroom window on the second floor and looked out. There is still a green farm, and no other colors can be seen at this time, and the farther city of Great Falls is not visible at all in this kind of weather.
In such heavy snow, one kilometer at most is considered good. Except for the Missouri River, which has not been frozen, and is still flowing unwashed and steaming outward, it is almost impossible to see the world. Other colors.
Yang Jing put on the clothes and walked slowly downstairs. Maybe it was because I got up twice last night, and one of them was still busy scraping the snow off the roof. Brother Jones did not get up and was still asleep.
Yang Jing opened the door, and the cold wind rushing in his face made him shiver involuntarily.
However, this kind of wind is not the same as the knife-like wind of yesterday evening. Although the wind is very cold, it is abnormally moist. After taking a breath, the whole lungs feel very comfortable.
The Missouri River, which is about fifty meters away from the door of the house, is like a fairy river. The whole river is bubbling up with steaming water vapor. This is a unique view of a river that has not yet frozen in the cold winter area.
Looking up at the sky, the sky is still overcast. Just as Michael Jones judged yesterday, this snow does not seem to be able to fall in one day.
The snow on the ground is already nearly half a meter deep, if it weren't for the porch at the door, I am afraid that even the door of the house would not be able to be opened at this time. But even if there is a porch, there is still 20 to 30 centimeters of snow on the side of the porch near the outside.
Yesterday the Jones brothers’ Ford pickup didn’t drive into the garage, but stopped outside. At this time, the pickup was completely indistinguishable. It was just a raised snow bag in the gate...
With such a thick snow, Yang Jing didn’t even bother to go out and take a walk. After sweeping the snow in the porch with the broom at the door, he moved around under the porch, and then walked into the house and started making breakfast. .
Breakfast is very simple, oatmeal rice porridge, plus a few cold dishes and a few fried eggs, the bread only needs to be heated in the microwave for a little bit.
Just after frying the eggs, Yang Jing heard the faint cell phone ringing, touched his trouser pocket, and found that it was not his cell phone, then looked up, Roy looked as though he was not awake, holding a cell phone in pajamas while answering One side walked out.
"Um... uh... Michael and I will go back before noon, don't worry... love you..."
After hanging up the phone, Roy's nose moved, and then he saw the breakfast on the table and said with a smile: "Good morning Albert, you woke up so early, even breakfast is ready."
Yang Jing smiled and asked: "It's not that I got up early, but that you two were too busy last night, so it's normal to sleep a little longer in the morning."
As he was talking, Michael also yawned and walked out of the guest room. It seemed that not only his brother Roy was awakened by the call just now, but even Michael couldn't escape.
"Hurry up and wash and eat, otherwise the meal will be cold in a while."
The brothers walked into the bathroom and started to wash, and walked out full of energy after a while.
The three of them sat in front of the dining table and started to communicate while eating.
"This snow is too big. Michael and I were worried about the roof of the house. So we got up at four o'clock in the morning to clear the snow on the roof. This way, even if it continues to snow, it will not cause any danger to the house. NS."
Michael ate an omelette in one bite, took a sip of white water and said: "I just looked outside, the snow is a lot smaller, and it's daytime, the safety of the house is basically no problem. Albert , Your omelette is delicious."
Roy Jones said while eating, "Me and Michael are going back this morning. My mother called me just now and said that several houses on Alm's side were crushed. Michael and I need to go over and help. .So I will leave here with Michael in a while. You must pay attention to your safety here. If the snow continues to grow, Michael and I will come back in the evening to take a look and help you clean the snow on the roof. clean."
"Well, you go and do your job. Don't worry about me here. If the snow is large, I can also clean the snow on the roof. This kind of sloped roof is easy to clean. I am alone. It can be done."
"Well, if there is anything, you can call me directly. I will call Elvin and Oscar later and ask them to come over and do some work for you."
The Irwin and Oscars mentioned by Roy Jones are two other farmers hired by Zhao Meng. Irwin's name is Irvine Baldwin, and Oscar's name is Oscar Robertson. Both of them are farmers in this neighborhood. Like Brother Jones, they both work specifically for people to make money. It's just that they both got married, with a wife and children at home, so they couldn't spend the night outside like Brother Jones.
Breakfast was quickly finished. After eating, the Jones brothers entered the guest room and soon changed into warm work clothes.
"Albert, Bob has a snow plough here, which is installed in front of the tractor head. We often snow in winter, so almost every farm and ranch is equipped with such a snow plough. Now we have nothing to do on our farm, and we don’t need to clean up the snow on the farm, so I plan to drive this tractor out in a while while clearing the snow on the road to one side."
Yang Jing nodded and said, "It's okay, just do it."
The Americans have done a good job at this point, especially in such remote areas, where almost all the snow on the roads is cleaned spontaneously by local residents. The United States claims to be a country that lives on tires. Every household has a car. So once it snows, clearing the snow on the highway will become the top priority of the locals. Otherwise, even if you can’t even drive out, it’s really nothing. Can't do it anymore.
Michael Jones took a broom and began to sweep the snow around the pickup, while Roy Jones stepped on the snow that was not more than half of his thigh and walked to the farm machinery warehouse next to him.
Yang Jing did not follow, but after waiting for a while, he heard the roar of diesel engines in the warehouse. After waiting for a while, Yang Jing saw a big guy slowly drive out of the warehouse.
This is definitely a big guy, with a length of five and a half meters and a height of close to three meters. What surprised Yang Jing most was that this huge tractor head turned out to be rear four-wheel drive.
Michael, who has already cleaned the pickup truck out of the snow, said with a smile while cleaning the snow particles on his body, "This is a big guy, isn't it? This big guy was we asked Bob for advice last spring. , Bob paid for us to buy it. John Deere 6J-1654 tractor, a great guy, can make our work easier."
"John Deere is currently the most famous agricultural machinery manufacturer in the world. This 1654 tractor is also a very mature technology. Usually the tractor nose has four tires, but under heavy load or under special road conditions like today, the rear A pair of drive wheels can be added to keep the tires having enough grip. This big guy has 165 horsepower and can pull a maximum load of six tons, making it our farmer’s favorite agricultural machinery."
"Look at the snow plough installed by Roy. Put it on, and then use this big guy to push it along the road. The road is basically cleaned up, which is very convenient."
Yang Jing looked at this big guy also a little itchy, don't look at this is just a tractor, but more comfortable than most so-called luxury cars. Except for the top cover and bottom of the cab, the other four sides are closed with high-strength plexiglass, and the internal space is very spacious ~lightnovelpub.net~ and it also has its own heating and cooling air-conditioning.
Roy wanted Yang Jing to see the big guy’s ability to clean the snow, so he put down the steel plate in front of the snow plough, but it didn’t reach the bottom, it was still seven or eight centimeters from the ground, and stepped on it. At the accelerator, the exhaust pipe standing on the right side of the cab suddenly emitted a faint blue smoke, pushing the snow that was more than half a meter deep and walking forward easily.
Because the steel plate in front of the snow plough is more than five meters long and is inclined, the snow is pushed by the steel plate, and the snow in the area about five meters wide in front of the tractor will be ploughed to one side along the inclined steel plate. After the tractor came over, behind it was a clean ground five meters wide that was swept out.
If this thing is on the road, it can clean a five-meter-wide road at one time, because behind the tractor head, there are two constantly rotating sweepers that can directly remove the remaining snow on the road. Clean up.
This thing is really an artifact for sweeping snow on highways!
