Yesterday, reader Mr. Wang’s exclusive remarks to the newspaper stated that in the courtyard of the northern section of Qinling Road in Zhengzhou City, every day during leisure time, the 64-year-old Chen New Year will bring a miner's lamp, a helmet, and a camouflage uniform. , basin, into the excavated roadway, dig forward.

In order to dig his wife and daughter into the underground living room, the old man said that he had dug for a full four years. He has already excavated 50 square meters of space and initially realized the idea of ​​living.

In the underground room, he danced and sang with his wife. He was very happy and the daughters competed to live down. "My design can resist the magnitude 8 earthquake." The old man cheerfully said that because there is cool in winter and cool in summer, the family does not have any concerns.

Dream: Let your wife and daughter have a good place to live

The house where Chen New Year lived belonged to a shanty town, with dozens of low-rise houses joined together. Every household was behind the room and circled some public space to store debris. Different from neighbors, Chen’s New Year’s residence occupied 4 points, which provided space for him to excavate the basement in the courtyard.

After walking down the steps of the cement repair, the reporter felt very cool. He walked about two meters and a residence of about 10 square meters appeared before him. The room was white and white, and the bedding on the bed was clean. The sound and bookshelves were placed in front of the bed. At the two ends of the bed, excavate the roadway that is 2 meters high and 70 centimeters wide. Under the dim lighting, it is quiet and warm. On the wall of the tunnel, several platforms were dug, and cantaloupe, beer and cucumber were placed on it. "The basement is 19 degrees Celsius. Putting the food here is like putting it in the refrigerator." Chen New Year said.

“To dig a good house for my wife and daughter has always been my dream.” Chen New Year said that his ancestral hometown was Zhoukou Taikang and he was working in the Pingdingshan coal mine before retiring. When working, it is conceived that if there is an opportunity, we must use our experience as a miner to dig out an underground room for the family. After retiring, he and his wife settled in Zhengzhou. Because the yard they lived in was relatively large, he planned to make the plan for many years to come true.

After his wife Liu Shula knew what he was thinking, he felt "too dangerous" and did not agree. But Chen New Year verbally promised not to dig, quietly launched an action in private - will grab the hook, miner's lamp, helmet and other equipment to purchase complete, began to dig. Seeing her husband was so persistent, Liu Shula did not object again and later began assisting her husband.

Don't want to be a room slave

Liu Shula said that their family house can accommodate the next family before her daughter has yet to marry. Now that she has a son-in-law and a nephew, she has been asked to come back and her house has become a problem. "The price of nearby houses is more than 5,000 yuan per square meter, so we can't afford it at all." Chen New Year said that this has strengthened his determination to dig. "Engineering" started four years ago. “When you want to do it, do it and work four or five hours a day.” The light walkway is 6 meters deep. He said that the soil dug out of the ground was not discarded but was piled around the house to grow vegetables and flowers. “In the past two years, I heard that the house had to be demolished. I slowed down the progress of the project.” According to his plan, if the house is not in the demolition area, he will dig out three bedrooms and one hall underground. “I am ready to move the kitchen down. His wife is too hot to be guilty of cooking."

Chen New Year said that when he was a miner, he received technical paces many times and he had a lot of experience in designing underground roadways. He designed it according to coal mine standards and reserved two ventilation channels to facilitate air circulation in the corners and load-bearing parts. Water cement coagulation. "Excavating the basement without drawings is based on my own sketch. Its design standards can resist the magnitude 8 earthquake."

Underground room where he and his wife dance

In the past four years since the construction, the demolition information has not been eliminated, and Chen’s New Year’s “wish” has been temporarily suspended. Although the project has not yet been completed, this does not affect the happiness that he and his wife and daughter enjoy in the basement.

"We love to dance and jump for a while when it's all right." During the interview, this old man, who had passed half a century, stepped up and danced in the basement on a rousing drum. When the daughters returned home, the basement became the first choice for them to escape the hot summer. Liu Shula said that the temperature in the basement is low at night, like the current season needs to cover two quilts to keep warm.

Neighbor Yan Xizhong said that the neighbours had long known what Lao Chen was doing. Because his house was far away from everyone, there was no need to worry about everyone. "I've seen it many times and I feel like I've done a good job."
