Zhou Qiang's combat ability was very valiant, but it would be too tiring to travel to Peng City.
Fortunately, Sun Jingmo brought a letter of recommendation, along with a national food ticket and train ticket. He took the train directly and came to Peng City. Actually, he could have taken a plane, but that would be too ostentatious.
Zhou Qiang came to Pengcheng and thought of a way to find the right place. Then, he put on a rubber band and swam directly to Xiangjiang. After sharing Chen Ze's physique, Zhou Qiang was like a white dragon in the waves. He reached Xiangjiang easily.
By the time Chen Ze read Zhou Qiang's memory again, he had already gone ashore.
However, when they arrived in Xiangjiang, they didn't recognize food stamps or money from the mainland. Therefore, Zhou Qiang found a few hooligans according to the memory given by Chen Ze. After beating them up, he easily solved the problem of money.
After Zhou Qiang shared Chen Ze's physique, all the gangsters in Xiangjiang City were no match for him.
In the next few days, Zhou Qiang had a firm foothold in Xiangjiang City. This was all thanks to Chen Ze's Cantonese. Chen Ze had learned Cantonese because some of his clients came from Xiangjiang City. Of course, he was also influenced by Hong Kong films and translated Hong Kong music in the 1980s and 1990s.
Therefore, Zhou Qiang automatically learned Cantonese and easily gained a foothold here.
Chen Ze basically checked on his post every two days, and all of this was thanks to the Jia family.
Without the energy provided by the Jia family, Chen Ze would not have been able to share it with Zhou Qiang for so long.
The Jia family hated Chen Ze to death, but they could do nothing to him.
Chen Ze would happily hang around in front of their house every day. He had to hang around because Chen Ze's energy would not increase!
In the middle of October, the weather began to change. The originally autumn tiger really began to become the autumn tiger. The temperature dropped from 20 degrees Celsius to more than 10 degrees Celsius. People started to wear extra clothes.
Chen Ze had a lot of firepower and was not afraid of the cold weather. However, he still thought about whether he should add a boiler to his house.
Ordinary siheyuan houses didn't have a boiler. This thing was too coal consuming.
However, Chen Ze wanted to add one more person. Although he was strong, it did not mean that he was not afraid of the cold. On the contrary, Chen Ze was a southerner. Last year, he had been frozen half to death. He was a person who was especially afraid of the cold. He was afraid of the cold in his bones.
Let's put it this way. Chen Ze always switched on the air-conditioning during the summer, and he always slept at 27 degrees Celsius. Unless it was extremely hot, the air-conditioning temperature would not go down to 24 degrees Celsius.
When winter came, Chen Ze yearned for the south the most. It was warm and warm. It didn't matter even if it was so dry that he had nosebleeds every day. It was good as long as it was warm.
"Why don't you install one?"
The floor heating was not troublesome. It was just boiling water. If it was a small room like Chen Ze's, it would be even simpler. He could add a few water pipes on the wall. There was no need to boil water. He could just let the steam run around.
With just this small area, the room was warm all of a sudden.
The only drawback was the waste water and coal.
"Pretend!"
Since the weather had not turned cold yet, Chen Ze planned to get someone to make one. It was winter, and Chen Ze could not stand more than a meter of snow.
The snow in the 1960s could indeed reach this level. Before 2008, the snow in Beijing was half a meter thick.
This would cost a lot of money. The principle of the entire equipment was very simple. There was a pressure cooker outside that was used to boil water. The steam that was boiled would flow through the pipe and continuously return. The pipe would pass through the house, and the steam would heat the pipe, allowing the heat to be transferred to the pipe. Then, the heat would spread into the house, warming the house.
The best material was copper.
Copper was not cheap these days.
He had to look for Zhao Weiguo for this matter. Zhao Weiguo was a welder. Actually, Chen Ze could do this job himself, but he was lazy…
There was no need to use a Level 8 Welder, so why did he have to do it himself? Moreover, Chen Ze could not buy many materials. He still needed Zhao Weiguo's help.
Chen Ze made some slight modifications to the kitchen and used it to store coal. There was no need to install a heater in the kitchen. There was no need. There was an old stove over there, the kind with a big pot. Once the fire was turned on, the room would need to be equipped with air-conditioning instead of heating.
In the following days, Chen Ze bought all kinds of materials and worked with Zhao Weiguo to assemble the boiler. In fact, such a boiler had been around for a long time. However, the cost was relatively high for ordinary people, so they rarely used it in their homes.
However, in rich families, this thing was not uncommon.
Chen Ze and Zhao Weiguo tested it and finally confirmed that the bed was the warmest place in the entire room. The other places did not matter. Anyway, it was winter, and Chen Ze only wanted to lie on the bed!
Next, Chen Ze cracked open the floor under the dining table and buried the copper pipes in it. Then, he used bricks to separate it, leaving a space with air.
They were not afraid of snakes, insects, rats, and ants inside because once they were heated up, considering the heat dissipation of the floor tiles, the space reserved below would actually become very, very hot. No creature could survive here.
Snakes, insects, rats, and ants?
If he went in, he would probably be roasted overnight.
Moreover, Chen Ze was not a fool. It must have been sealed.
In less than half a month, everything was done. The boiler was placed between Chen Ze's and Grandpa Mu's houses. This location was originally shared by both families, but Chen Ze paid the price of a rabbit and an old hen to store the boiler here.
Moreover, Chen Ze had also pulled a water pipe over. After all, the water consumption would definitely soar in winter. Chen Ze was also embarrassed to share it with everyone. However, Chen Ze did not care about this. He even agreed to let the old man's house use the boiling water for free when the boiler started to boil water.
Chen Ze also changed the side of the room next to it to make a place for bathing. He connected the tap water pipe and the hot water pipe together.
In winter, he could take a hot bath at home.
A 300-liter water tank was enough.
Water bill?
It did not matter. Compared to the quality of life, Chen Ze really did not care about the water and coal bills.
However, when Chen Ze wanted to buy coal, he was rejected. He thought that in this day and age, buying a small amount of coal required a coal ticket, but buying a large amount required a purchase certificate.
According to the regulations, the monthly quota of coal for each household was 75 kilograms (different regions, some regions were calculated by the head, about 20 kilograms of coal per person).
However, Chen Ze had connections. Li Jixiang's purchasing ability easily solved the problem for Chen Ze.
Li Jixiang directly brought two tons of coal. One ton was 15 yuan, only 30 yuan. After buying it, he put it all in the space. This bit of money was really nothing to him.
Then, there was a ton of firewood and a ton of wood powder.
Wood powder was the powder left behind by sawnwood, and it had a very strong ignition ability.
After settling everything, Chen Ze heaved a sigh of relief. He did not have to be afraid of winter anymore.
