A powerful country in scientific research

Jiang Fusheng and his son Jiang Yunhai cut the wooden planks to the size of the kang and put them on top. Grandpa Jiang took over the small stove outside the house and finished it by then.

Su Ran took a look and nodded with satisfaction, "I think there's nothing wrong with it. Let's give it a try."

Jiang Fusheng and Jiang Yunhai nodded excitedly, and Grandpa Jiang also looked excited.

It's already past five o'clock. Jiang Fusheng and his son have been busy here all afternoon. They must keep them at home for dinner, so Grandma Jiang just went to the kitchen to prepare dinner and is not here at the moment.

Su Ran went to the stove next to him, lit a fire, and added a lot of firewood.

She turned to Grandpa Jiang, Jiang Fusheng, and Jiang Yunhai and said, "Grandpa, Uncle, Brother Yunhai, this kang doesn't heat up that quickly. We have to wait for a while. Let's go to the main hall first and come back after dinner."

Grandpa Jiang nodded and said, "Okay, Fusheng, it's been a while since we've had a drink together. Hongmei brought me some white wine last time. How about we have a drink together?"

Jiang Fusheng smiled and said, "Then I'll have a drink with my uncle. Yunhai, go tell your mom that we'll have dinner at your uncle's house today."

Jiang Yunhai: “Hey.”

Su Ran went to the kitchen with a smile on her face and helped Grandma Jiang prepare dinner. Of course, she did not forget to add firewood to the stove so as not to let it go out.

The two of them worked quickly, and half an hour later, six dishes were served on the table. At this time, Jiang Yunhai, who had just returned home, also came back, but he did not come empty-handed. He was holding two plates of dumplings made by his mother.

Grandma Jiang wanted to refuse but couldn't. After all, they had already been brought home, and it would be impolite to send them back. She put the dumplings on a plate with a smile and brought it to the table.

Everyone sat down at the table and started eating.

Grandpa Jiang and Jiang Fusheng said they wanted to drink, but they didn't drink too much. They each drank a small cup. After all, they still had to see the effect of the kang later, so they couldn't get drunk.

Everyone was thinking about the result, so they ate much faster than usual. They all put down their chopsticks in less than half an hour.

Jiang Yunhai was itching to eat because of the kang. He was the first one to finish eating. If his father, master and grandmother were not still eating and it would be impolite for him to leave alone, he would have rushed over to take a look.

Now that everyone has finally finished eating, he can finally go and see, Jiang Yunhai thought excitedly.

Su Ran saw his reaction and said with a smile: "The room should be warmer now, let's go take a look."

Grandpa Jiang: "Well, let's go and take a look."

So the five of them walked towards Su Ran's bedroom. When they left, in order to prevent the heat from escaping, Su Ran closed the door deliberately, so there was no difference between the outside and usual.

Su Ran opened the door, and a gust of warm air gushed out. Except for Su Ran, the others were stunned for a moment, and then walked into the house excitedly.

They stood beside the kang, feeling the warmth, their hearts full of emotion. Especially Jiang Yunhai, he leaned almost his whole body on the kang, looking very enjoyable, and kept shouting, "Dad, this is too warm!"

Jiang Fusheng smiled and nodded.

Grandpa Jiang and Grandma Jiang also looked surprised. They couldn't help but put their hands on the kang, feeling the warmth from the wooden boards, as if they were unwilling to leave.

Seeing everyone's satisfied look, Su Ran was also very happy. In her previous life, she had lived in the north since she was a child, and she knew how terrible the winter cold was. Now that she had a kang, she could bring some warmth to these people, and she felt that she had done something meaningful.

After Jiang Yunhai finished being excited, he looked at Su Ran with burning eyes: "Ran Ran, can you help us build two too?"

Su Ran smiled and said, "Brother Yunhai, you and your uncle did all this just now, you can just go back and build it yourself."

Jiang Yunhai said embarrassedly: "I didn't understand when you were laying the foundation."

Su Ran: "After I get this done, I want to make one for my grandparents. I'll teach you then."

Jiang Yunhai: "Really, Ranran, you want to teach me?"

Su Ran nodded, and then said to Jiang Fusheng: "Uncle, I think this kang is a good thing. I think everyone in our team should build one. After I finish teaching Brother Yunhai, I will let Brother Yunhai take charge of this matter."

Jiang Yunhai's face turned red with excitement. He looked at his father eagerly, waiting for his father to nod.

Jiang Fusheng sighed, "Of course, this is indeed a good thing, but there is a very realistic problem. The cost is too high. It needs bricks, chimneys, and barbed wire. There are too many things in our team that we can't afford."

Su Ran thought for a moment and said, "Uncle, this brick can actually be replaced. In addition to bricks, adobe can also be used for the kang, and adobe has a better heating effect and heats up faster. However, adobe cannot be used for a long time, it is too easy to crack, and it is not beautiful enough, so I used bricks this time. If you don't have enough funds, you can choose adobe, but cement, wire mesh, brine and other things are really not worth saving."

Jiang Fusheng asked excitedly: "Can you teach us this?"

Su Ran looked at Grandpa Jiang and said, "Grandpa, how about we build a brick bed in our wing room?"

Grandpa Jiang smiled and nodded.

Su Ran said to Jiang Fusheng, "Uncle, I will be back early tomorrow afternoon. Can we try the adobe kang in that room?"

Jiang Fusheng quickly said, "Okay, okay."

Su Ran: "Brother Yunhai, come with me tomorrow and learn both methods."

Jiang Yunhai nodded excitedly, "Okay!"

When Jiang Fusheng returned home in the evening, he quickly told his father, mother and daughter-in-law the good news.

Jiang Dahai's blood immediately boiled, "This is a great thing."

Jiang Fusheng smiled and nodded when he heard his father's words. "Yes, if the adobe kang that Ranran mentioned can really be built, our team should be able to survive this winter."

Jiangshui Brigade is located in the far north of the south. It has the temperature of the north, but does not have the heating methods of the north. Every winter is the most difficult time of the year, especially for the elderly with poor health. It is too difficult to bear.

Jiang Dahai sighed, "Yeah, is this kang really as good as you said?"

Before Jiang Fusheng could say anything, Jiang Yunhai said excitedly: "Yes, Grandpa, it is very warm. It only burned for an hour and the whole house was warm. It is much warmer than the stove in our house."

Jiang Fusheng smiled and nodded.

Jiang Dahai laughed twice, "Ranran is a good kid, she's promising and capable. When this is over, we'll have to reward her. Although she's not a member of our team, she's done something good for the team, so she should be rewarded."

Jiang Fusheng smiled and said, "Dad, I know this. She's my own niece, how can I treat her badly?"
