Chapter 9 Finding a way to make a fortune
After dinner in the evening, Chen Xia ran to the nearest Chen Guolin's house with a piece of meat.
The two families are relatives and have good relationships in normal times. This time, the "Chen Xia's fall into the water incident" was a blessing for Chen Guolin and his wife to save their lives.
Chen Guolin has a son and a daughter. His son Chen Zheng just returned from the army and looked powerful as Kong Wu, but he was relatively simple in his mind. Therefore, after he was discharged from the army, he only worked as a temporary worker in the commune police station.
Daughters Chen Juan and Chen Qiu are classmates and are studying junior high school in the commune together.
Seeing Chen Xia coming in with a piece of meat, Guo Lin's wife's eyes lit up and she hurriedly welcomed him in.
Rural people were reluctant to light the lights at night, and the whole family sat at the door to enjoy the cool air. When Chen Zheng saw Chen Xia coming in, he immediately stood up:
"Xiao Xia, I heard that you jumped into the river and committed suicide yesterday. How is it now?"
Seeing Chen Zheng's sincere expression, Chen Xia's mouth twitched, saying that he would not open the pot of the pot.
It is indeed a legendary product with developed limbs and simple minds.
After hearing this, Guolin's wife was embarrassed and was about to cause cancer, so she quickly opened the topic:
"Chen Xia, you are here, what meat should you bring?"
"Uncle, aunt, I haven't thanked you for what happened yesterday. I'm here today. I still have something to discuss with you."
Chen Guolin: "What's the matter? I'm so polite with my uncle."
Chen Xia sat down on a bamboo chair.
"That's right. Today the captain took me to the Fourth Hospital. The hospital agreed to let me work in the Fourth Hospital for the top job and no longer work in farming. The third and fourth brothers are still young, so I want Uncle Guolin to help us farm."
"Okay, this is a good thing, and it's hard for your three students to do farm work."
Seeing that Chen Guolin agreed to help farming, and even without asking about the conditions for compensation, Chen Xia couldn't help but feel a little respect for him.
People are generous, and they can't pretend to be stupid.
"That's right. Uncle Guolin, please help us farm. We will pay the agricultural tax ourselves. We have half of the remaining grain in our family. Do you think this is OK?"
Chen Guolin agreed without thinking, "Okay, just do what you said. In fact, it should be that uncle got the advantage of you."
This year is the first year of the joint contract responsibility system. Farmers regard the land they are allocated as more expensive than gold. After all, for them, the family's food, clothing, housing and transportation costs can be entirely relied on the output of those acres of land.
Although the land in Yuezhou is fertile, but there are many people and few lands, each person can get about 4 parts of the land. Now two acres of good paddy fields have been added at once. Even if you can only get half of the harvest, it is also a surprise for Chen Guolin's family.
As for the labor required for two acres of paddy fields, what is this? Their family of three adults can solve it in one day.
In fact, according to Chen Xia’s own opinion, he doesn’t want these two acres of land anymore. How much does it cost to work hard all year round?
But he didn't dare to say it. He dared to say no, and the fourth grandfather dared to beat him to death, so contracting it to others is the best way.
The two companies reached an agreement like this.
A few days later, after Chen Guolin and several other villagers finished their own farm work, they helped Chen Xia’s two acres of rice harvested, and helped thresh and dried until several bags of rice piled up to Chen’s firewood room.
During this period, Chen Xia had to go to the field with her. The villagers couldn't help her enthusiastically, but she was idle, right?
In the evening, Chen Qiu was told to cook all the meat and fish, and asked the villagers who helped to have a meal.
After handing over the responsibility field to the Chen Guolin family, Chen Xia never wants to farm again and will never think about it in her life.
Others have helped to do farm work, but they still have to pay the agricultural tax by themselves.
Chen Xia borrowed a trolley from the team and loaded several bags of rice into the cart. He pulled the cart in front, Chen Qiu and Chen Dong pushed it behind, and his uncle Chen Yi followed behind, shaking his head and tail.
The four people walked towards the commune grain station under the scorching sun.
Chen Yize's group is a bit weird. His grandfather gave birth to his father in his 40s, and his father also gave birth to a boy in his 40s.
This led to others having 4 generations, and only 2 generations were passed down in his family. Although he was young, he had a very high seniority in the village.
The advantage of being a high seniority is that he almost walked sideways in the village, who dares to bully him?
He is a grandfather. Do you want to respect your old age? Do you want to be the rule of your ancestors? Do you want to keep going in the village?
In addition, this guy is also a greedy person. In that difficult era, no one had much food.
But he doesn't care. He will take the initiative to come to the door if there is something delicious at home. After the meal, he will leave happily. No one dares to say he is not. What's wrong with the elders eating a meal at your house?
In this way, Chen Yize became the only fat man in Qingfeng Village. Yes, the others were all yellow and hungry, and only he was white and fat.
His seniority and appearance as festive also made him a "group favorite" in Qingfeng Village.
However, there is a disadvantage to being older, and children of the same age don’t like to play with him.
Because he always acts like an elder to teach people a lesson, even if he plays a game, he often cheats. Over time, he really becomes a "lonely elder".
However, Chen Yi had a vision, so it would be fine if others didn't like to play with him, but he was willing to play with some children of "nephew" Chen Bingkun.
Because he felt that the children of the Bingkun family were sensible, educated, and were literate, so that they could be worthy of playing with his elders.
There is another little secret. He knew that Chen Bingkun was a doctor and his family was in good condition and had no shortage of food. He even occasionally had candy and pastries. This was very suitable for him, a little greedy cat, so he ran to Chen Xia's house every few days.
Now, I heard that Chen Xia took her family to the Kezhen guesthouse a few days ago. After he came back, he brought a large piece of pork, so he stared at Chen Xia.
Today, Chen Xia and his family were going to the commune, and he also followed him for nothing.
The sunshine at the end of July is the most poisonous time, which makes the four friends sweat and sweat.
In order to encourage morale, Chen Xia kept helping them recall the meal they had eaten in Ke Town a few days ago.
Chen Dong heard that the roundworms were about to come out and asked pitifully:
"Second, when will we go to Ke Town to have 5 meat dishes? I still want to drink soda."
Chen Yize's ears immediately stood up.
"Don't think about 5 meat and vegetables in a short time, but I can promise you to buy soda after you go to the commune."
"Really, second brother, you are so nice."
"There is no benefit, the second brother, if there is no benefit, you call me second brother. You are really OK with the fourth brother."
Chen Yize was anxious and said quickly: "Xiao Xiaxia, I and me, I want to drink soda."
"Okay, I'll treat you today and I'll have a full bouncy drink."
Chen Yi was so happy that he wanted to grow wings under his feet and immediately ran to the small supply and marketing cooperative of the commune to drink soda.
When the four people arrived in front of the commune grain station, there was already a crowd of people at the entrance. When Chen Xia saw the long queue, he took out one yuan and handed it to Chen Qiu, asking them to go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy food at will, and then find a cool place to wait for him.
The first time the three of them got such a huge sum of money, they all ran away excitedly.
Chen Xia was bored and wanted to find a crowded place to join in the fun, listen to the chat content of the people around him, and learn more about the thinking of people in this era and the major events that are happening now.
Not far away, a group of farmers were chatting. Chen Xia pulled the cart near them, and then sat in the car and pricked up his ears to listen.
"A Liutou, your family has a good harvest this year, right?"
"The harvest is good, the harvest is good. This field belongs to my own family. But I serve it more meticulous than serving my wife. How can I not produce a lot of money?"
"Hahaha, our family has a good harvest, mom, so much food is piled up at home, something I never dared to dream of in my dreams."
"Yes, yes, I wish I could sleep with rice every day these days. Thinking about the hard days, it was really not easy. After selling the grain this time, I will plant another season of late rice immediately. We can't finish the food in the future."
Chen Xia understood that the first year of family contract responsibility system had achieved great success. Every household had a large amount of grain surplus. It was not enough to eat before, but now it is too late to eat.
Chen Xia asked, "Brothers, this food is not enough to be eaten, you can take it out and sell it."
An old man next to him shouted quickly: "Stop, you little baby can't speak so loudly, how dare you sell the food? This is a speculation. If you are caught, you will be criticized and fought. What if you take our fields back?"
The person chatting next to him immediately agreed, "Yes, if you really want to sell it, you can only sell it to the grain station. The price is too low. Alas, the purchase price of a good pound of rice is only 7 cents, and it can't be sold for a few dollars."
Chen Xia was about to say that society has been open now, and it is okay for farmers to sell some food, but suddenly he thought of something and shut up immediately. Don’t his younger brother and sister want to eat 5 meat dishes every day?
He felt that he had found a good way to get rich.
Although the medicines in his space hospital cannot work for the time being, so many empty places in the hospital can be used.
These days he has tried it repeatedly at home. Things outside the space can be transferred into the space at any time. He has repeatedly entered and exited a large bag of rice N times, without failing once.
Moreover, the space hospital also has a special function, which is what kind of things are put in, what kind of state they are taken out or maintained.
For example, food is hot when put in, and no matter how long it takes to take out, it will be hot and will not rot.
This function is powerful, at least it will be too convenient to do some speculation and counter-attack in this era.
Every time he wants to sell, he can take out a small part of what he wants, and continue to take it out of the space after selling it.
Even if you are caught by the police, it will be fine. If you can’t find the goods sold, there will be no evidence. How can you characterize it as a speculative counter-attack?
There is no risk at all.
