After my aunt left, my sister stayed at my house. Usually go to and from school with me.
Not far from the school, there is an iron factory that strikes iron every day. The discarded iron slag and coal residue were all dumped on the road and spread several layers thickly. From the iron factory to the gate of the school.
After school every day, most of us will take this road home. The road is not wide, about 3 meters, and we can pass cars. We had to go through the yard until the main road turned a corner before we left the place covered with iron slag.
Of course, you can also go all the way to the iron factory and go home from the side road, but it takes a few minutes to go around.
After school, I waited for my sister at the door. It seems that she is later in the lower grades? I don't understand.
"Brother~ I'm here~" After waiting for about five minutes, my sister walked out of the school.
"Well, let's go home. Why is it so late today!" I was concerned.
"The teacher is procrastinating again. A few students are so stupid. They can't understand what was just said in class, and we are all kept together." According to my sister, she is studying well?
Alas, although I don't want to admit it, her academic performance is really not as good as I imagined. She is usually quite good, and she makes some low-level mistakes when she comes to the exam. Is this the legendary exam syndrome?
"You're the smart one! Let's go home!" I took my sister with me and drove home on the path.
"Brother, what are you pinching?"
"This is a magnet. I borrowed it specially for my grandfather. Let's walk on the path and pick up iron."
"Is it so easy to pick it up? I feel like it's all coal!" The younger sister kicked the coal on the road as she walked.
"You can't see the iron like this. You have to look carefully to find it."
"Then why don't you start looking for it? Didn't you say you want to pick up iron?"
"Don't worry, it's all been picked up here. Go ahead and pick it up closer to the iron factory. The dross there is freshly poured out, and no one has picked it up yet. There is a lot of iron."
"Why do you have to pick up iron?" My sister didn't quite understand my original intention.
"Picking iron can be sold for money. A catty is worth 20 cents! We pick up a little every day when we come home from school and save it. When we are on vacation, we have to save at least a few dozen catties! Then sell it for a few yuan. To grandma, will you be praised for being sensible?"
"That makes sense! Then grandma must be very happy~" After listening to my description, my sister seems to have felt the benefits of picking up iron, and looks forward to picking up more later.
Together with my sister, I talked about some happy things while walking, and after a while, I have passed through the bamboo forest.
"Brother, there are a lot of cinders here. Is it fresh?"
The coal slag in front is one floor higher than the area we walked through. The thick carbon slag is relatively new in color and there are no traces of trampling.
"Well, it shouldn't be long, and it's still steaming!" I grabbed a handful of carbon slag and felt the temperature coming from it. 1 hour.
"Go, let's go a few steps forward, and we will start picking up iron." After walking a few more steps, it was obvious that the carbon slag was very thick, so I squatted down with my sister and carefully looked for the iron in the carbon slag .
"Brother, why don't you just use a magnet to absorb it?"
"There are a lot of iron filings in the carbon slag, and the magnet is not very effective, all the iron filings are sucked up, and the big ones can't be sucked up at all. You still need to find it yourself"
"Come on, follow me, and I'll teach you how to find it." With my sister, I walked in front, half arched.
"When searching, don't stay in one place all the time, like me, bow your body, stare at the carbon residue, first look at the shape."
"The shape of iron is generally long, not as big as carbon slag, and it is more prominent than pebbles, so it is easy to identify"
"The color of iron is darker, unlike carbon slag, colorful and reflective."
"Oh, so wordy~" My sister seemed to understand my explanation, and began to try the method I said.
The entire carbon slag road is estimated to be 300 meters long, and the fresh carbon slag section is only about one-third of the length.
Although there are many carbon slags, there are not many real iron nuggets. After all, the iron factory is specialized in making iron, and others have already screened it before throwing it away, so there are only a few fish that slipped through the net.
After slowly searching for more than ten meters, I found a screw the size of a fingernail, an iron rod as thick as a little finger, and nothing else.
"Leidan, did you find it?" I asked curiously.
"Brother, I only found one~ Let's see if it's right." My sister handed me a small piece of iron. Although it's thin, it's better than nothing.
"Let's go, let's go home, grandma will be worried when it's late. I didn't get anything today, and I'll come back tomorrow." Looking at the three small iron bars in his hand, I was speechless for a while, so little, what can I do? Hey~
"Brother, look, there are crabs crawling in the river~" As soon as I reached the upper reaches of the new ditch, my sister pointed to a place at the bottom of the river.
I took a closer look, hey~ the crab crawled out of the hole! They must be looking for food, right?
"Come on, help me hold my clothes and schoolbag, I'll go down and catch them!" Handing the schoolbag and clothes to my sister, I shuttled down the river.
"Don't dirty my clothes. My mother bought them for me," I told my sister again.
"Got it! Don't worry, I won't dirty the new clothes for you," the younger sister reassured.
As soon as I went down, the crab quickly crawled towards the entrance of the cave. I quickly rushed up and pinched it in my hand! Got it!
"Look! What a big crab!" I held up the crab in my hand and showed it to my sister.
"Wow~ brother, quickly find a bag and put it in a bag~ grab a few more and go home! Call grandma to fry them for us!" Seeing the crabs, the younger sister on the shore was so happy, but this idea of ??frying the crabs , doesn't seem very good?
After searching around for a while, I found an old plastic bag and threw the crab into the bag.
There is no water at the bottom of the river, and it has long since dried up. Those plastic bags, bottles, rotten bowls, everywhere.
?As I moved forward, I caught three or four crabs one after another. It seems that I have gained a lot today!
"Leidan! Come and get the crabs, I'm coming up!" I felt that I was about to reach the deep water area, so I decided to give up. Come back another day.
After handing the crab to my sister, I climbed up.
"Give me my schoolbag and clothes"
"Brother, I put my schoolbag and clothes at the place where I went down to catch crabs, let's get them together"
Carrying the crab, he ran to the place where he just started going down the river. That's about a hundred meters away.
"Where are my clothes?" Looking at the schoolbag on the ground, the clothes were gone.
"It was here just now. I put it here with my schoolbag!" My sister didn't believe in evil, and rushed to me out of breath. When she saw that there was indeed only the schoolbag on the ground, and the clothes were gone, she was also at a loss. . (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
