The early preparations for building Luo Xuan's house are in full swing.
For a while, Luo Xuan no longer cared about going out to catch eels, so he mainly focused on buying other people's eels for breeding.
During the day, I was busy taking care of the major and minor matters of building a house.
At night Luo Xuan would get into the space and water the corn seedlings and seedlings.
By the way, I used bamboo poles to build chicken coops for the big roosters, hens, and chicks I bought.
The rabbits and chickens are easy to handle, and the black goat I bought is also easy to raise.
As long as you feed them sweet potatoes, corn kernels and water, they won't cause trouble in the pen.
The main thing now is the 6 wild boar cubs, which make Luo Xuan feel a little bit dizzy!
The little piglets, which have long since recovered their vitality, are at the stage where Uncle Pig no longer loves them and Grandma Pig does not love them.
These wild little piglets spend their days scurrying around in the ground looking for those plump earthworms to eat.
By the way, it also killed a lot of corn seedlings and seedlings, which only made Luo Xuan so angry that his teeth itched!
Without a pigsty, it’s really impossible to contain these little wild boars.
But if you want to repair the pig pen, you have to use a lot of stone slabs.
Now Uncle Zhang has begun to send the stones he needs to build his house one after another.
But every time he sent over a number of stones and bluestones, Uncle Ding carefully recorded every stone and bluestone in a small book.
How many of them do you want to steal?
There is no way!
If he takes part of it, even if a piece is missing, the careful Uncle Ding and Uncle Zhang will notice it.
At that time, it would be bad if it arouses their suspicion.
There are basically no outsiders in the production team.
If there are fewer stones on the construction site, the first person that Uncle Ding and Uncle Zhang will suspect is definitely themselves!
Not to mention that there were no thieves in this period, even if there were thieves, who would come to Luo Xuan to steal stones?
If they don't doubt Luo Xuan, who else can they doubt?
Therefore, Luo Xuan, who looked at the pigs and sighed, could only use thick bamboo poles to temporarily build a temporary pigsty for these wild boar piglets that would not rest for a moment.
But as the wild boar cubs grow bigger and bigger, how can these pig pens made of bamboo poles be able to surround them in the future?
Luo Xuan pulled out some of the densely planted seedlings and corn seedlings to replenish the fields that had been destroyed by the wild boars.
At the same time, I thought to myself: It seems that I have to get some materials quickly and build a strong pig pen as soon as possible.
this day.
Luo Xuan set out early in the morning, planning to go to the county's machine-made brick factory to buy a few carts of red bricks.
When Luo Xuan walked to the streets of Hongxing Township and passed by Fatty Gu's catering service club, he happened to see Fatty Gu catching a glimpse of Luo Xuan passing by.
Fatty Gu jumped out from behind the counter with a whoosh!
I saw him taking three steps and two steps at a time, then ran to the edge of the street, stretched out his hand and grabbed Luo Xuan: "Come on, come on inside, I want to tell you something."
Luo Xuan went out very early in order to catch the bus.
It was around eight o'clock when I arrived at Fatty Gu's place.
And my old acquaintance Liu Fuguier happened to be having breakfast in the catering service club today.
When he saw Luo Xuan come in, Liu Fugui couldn't help but his eyes lit up, "Hey, what a coincidence! Luo Xuan, come on, come on, I'll treat you to a fried dough stick."
Fatty Gu slapped Liu Fugui's outstretched hand away and said, "Go, go, let's go. If you join my catering service company, do you need a fried dough stick from you as a favor?"
With that said, Fatty Gu pulled Luo Xuan directly into his office.
turn out to be,
The preparations for the Yongxing Reservoir are in a hurry these days, and a radio station is about to be built in the Hongxing Township Office.
This requires a lot of technical personnel to come and install and debug equipment, pull wires, and install telephone poles.
Therefore, in Fatty's catering service club, the reception tasks have been very heavy recently.
When Luo Xuan asked Fatty Gu about his intentions, he understood: it turned out that he wanted to buy some mushrooms and eels from him.
How much does he want?
During this time, the seedlings became taller and lusher.
In many sunny paddy fields, the rice has begun to bloom. So it is very difficult to catch eels now.
This makes eels very rare in the market.
I haven't gone out to fish for eels in a while. The more than ten kilograms of eels I bought from others were of varying sizes, ranging from large to small.
But fortunately, the small eels I raised in the space before have now grown to more than 3 taels, so I can take them out for a while.
As for mushrooms, it hasn't rained much in Hongxing Township recently, so the fresh mushrooms on the market are almost extinct.
Fatty Gu wanted mushrooms. He was looking for them in a hurry and needed a lot of them.
Just because Hongxing Township is building a radio station this time, the manufacturer needs to send technicians to help install and debug the equipment.
These technicians, including Qi Yong and Zhang Wei whom Luo Xuan met on the frame truck last time, are all from coastal provinces.
Zhang Wei and others traveled thousands of miles to the remote Bashu Province to support the construction of the literary and artistic propaganda front in brother provinces.
How can we neglect them in Hongxing Township?
But here there is no seafood, no old wine, and there is no braised pork with pig hair, sweet and greasy, and a palm-sized piece that Zhang Wei and the others are used to...
Therefore, Zhang Wei and the others had only been in Hongxing Township for a few days.
Because of the acclimatization and the huge difference in eating habits, I became mentally depressed.
The leaders of the township office saw it and were anxious in their hearts. It made them extremely anxious!
If the difficulties in their lives are not solved, where will the fighting power come from?
Therefore, the leaders of the township office instructed Fatty Gu: Be sure to make some meals that suit the taste of technicians like Zhang Wei and others!
After receiving the instructions from the leader, Fatty Gu immediately became extremely anxious.
What is common in the market now are just a few local vegetables, and you can eat them here and there.
In this era of inconvenient transportation, don't expect to be able to buy things along the coast.
In Hongxing Township, or even in the county, things like kelp, dried cuttlefish and the like can barely be considered "seafood"...
Since there is no seafood, Fatty Gu can only make up for it with river fresh food and mountain products.
Fatty Gu needed to buy eels, especially mushrooms, so Luo Xuan nodded and agreed.
Originally, the eels and mushrooms were in their own space.
But in order not to arouse Fatty Gu's suspicion, Luo Xuan used the excuse that the mushrooms were still in a certain mountain in the countryside and that he needed to go home to pick them.
After leaving the office, Luo Xuan greeted Liu Fugui and then hurried towards home.
Out of the catering service agency.
At this time, the non-staple food store of the supply and marketing cooperative was open, and Luo Xuan ran into the store to buy some starch.
Then he went home, handed the starch to Aunt Zhang and the others, and then turned back to Hongxing Township.
Running around like this is really hard.
But the mushrooms in your own space can basically be picked every two days.
If they don't sell them and turn them into money, these mushrooms will just stay in the ground and remain the same: they won't get bad, but they won't get bigger either.
It will only be a waste of resources.
There are no mushrooms on the market now. Since I can sell them at a good price, I feel very happy no matter how hard I work.
As long as you make money, you can run for three days and three nights!

p; Wait until the eel mushrooms are sold out.
By this time, it was getting late.
By the time Luo Xuan hurried to the simple bus station in Hongxing Township, the shuttle bus had already started and was about to leave.
Luo Xuan, who was sweating profusely and panting from running, finally squeezed into the car, only to find that the car was already packed!
Many two-person seats are crowded with three or even four passengers.
Luo Xuan was about to squeeze in with the chickens, ducks, geese, and piglets in the aisle.
At this moment,
But he saw Liu Fugui sitting in his seat, waving to him, "Come, come, come and squeeze in here."
So Luo Xuan moved with difficulty from the aisle and squeezed into the same seat as Liu Fugui.
This Liu Fugui, don't think he is just doing odd jobs in the frog market.
But his well-informed and contemptuous demeanor made many members of the production team in the carriage afraid to go over and sit with him.
Wait until the car staggers onto the road.
The passengers in the car began to chatter about the fact that Hongxing Township would soon have electricity and radio.
I just heard someone boasting in excitement: "Do you know how powerful that broadcast is?
Cadres in the provincial capital are meeting, and we will know at noon what new policies have been introduced.
Also, if the yield of this crop of corn in other brother provinces thousands of miles away is 3,000 kilograms per mu, they will finish harvesting the corn in the morning and we will receive the news in the afternoon.
Do you think this broadcast is great?"
Some people are not convinced.
He opened his mouth and said: "What is radio? There is a man in our production who bought a radio box. He can listen to the news at any time by turning the switch on it.
Moreover, if you want to listen to Sichuan opera, you can listen to Sichuan opera, and if you want to listen to Peking opera, you can listen to Peking opera! That’s great.”
Hearing this, Liu Fugui nudged Luo Xuan with his elbow: "Have I heard that you are preparing to build a house? Luo Xuan, why don't you also buy a radio box? If you have that guy in your house, I guarantee you. Let your house be crowded and lively every day!"
Luo Xuan shook his head: "I just built a house, and I don't know how many years of famine I will endure! How can I have any spare money to buy a radio box? It's so expensive."
Buy a radio?
This amount of money does not put much pressure on me.
But buying that thing will definitely get you into big trouble!
This era is not a time for people to show off wantonly.
Just like the radio with a "Panda Brand" wooden box casing that I saw in the hardware counter of the county department store last time.
It is decorated with velvet gold silk fabric, which looks antique and very beautiful.
At that time, Luo Xuan was also thinking about buying one.
With my current spending power, I can buy a single-speaker radio for 129 yuan without any financial pressure at all.
But Luo Xuan thought about it: If there was some limelight, and a hat of "eavesdropping on x channel" suddenly fell on his head...
Going to the northwest to plant trees and benefit mankind is an easy task!
If it doesn't work, it will just be two peanuts.
Therefore, apart from using the money I have to buy food and build houses, there is really nothing good to do with it.
Luo Xuan vaguely remembers: In the early 1980s, there seemed to be an accountant from a credit union who was eventually arrested for embezzling public funds.
It's because he has two bicycles and three watches at home.
This arouses suspicion in others.
Because according to their salary and income at that time, this accountant's family could not afford two bicycles and three watches!
From this point of view,
During this period, you really can’t be arrogant, you still have to be humble!
When the shuttle bus finally entered the county town after swaying for nearly two hours, Luo Xuan pulled Liu Fugui'er out of the bus.
The two of them went straight into the same restaurant as last time.
This time Luo Xuan learned the lesson and ordered a "high-quality twice-cooked pork" directly at the counter.
An extra 2 cents per serving is an extra 2 cents!
You work so hard to make money, isn’t it just for the sake of food and drink?
But Luo Xuan never expected that Liu Fuguier, who was used to eating, drinking, and using other people, would be very determined this time and pay for the food and food stamps for him first!
While waiting for the food to be served.
Liu Fugui put his head close to Luo Xuan and whispered: "You will need to spend a lot of money to build a house this time, right?
Why don't you hurry up and get some angler fish to sell?
Let me tell you, to make money, you have to make money from rich people, so that you can make money quickly!
If you go to the rice fields to dig for eels, you will be exhausted and you won't make much money! Even if you can occasionally get a few old turtles, so what?
After all, in Hongxing Township, only 'those people' have a grudge against the old turtle. When they see the big turtle, they want to pounce on it and take a few bites!
There are a lot of people selling old turtles in the county market. You can only sell them at a good price if you have a very rare one. If you have other ordinary items, they only cost 3 or 5 yuan at most.
"
Liu Fugui found it inconvenient to talk across the table, so he simply moved his butt next to Luo Xuan, "How about it? When can you get the angler fish again?"
Luo Xuan shook his head, "I'm too busy right now. I have to buy red bricks and wood. I really can't even bother to catch fish in the mountains."
Liu Fugui, who is well-informed, naturally knows that there are angler fish in the mountains where Xiao Laojun and Da Laojun meet.
actually.
Many people in Hongxing Township are vaguely aware of this matter.
It's just that most people in this era are very honest, even very cowardly and timid.
Their living circle is generally within 3 to 5 miles of the production team.
If you ask him to run dozens or hundreds of miles deep into the mountains and forests to catch fish, at least half of the members of the production team will not have the courage.
And the main reason is because it is difficult to feed angler fish.
Even if someone catches this kind of fish, he can't take the fish with all its beards and tails outside the mountain and turn it into money.
Seeing the fiery look in Liu Fugui'er's eyes, Luo Xuan said calmly: "Don't expect me to transfer the formula of the potion to you."
Liu Fugui chuckled: "How can that be possible? This formula is a unique skill that you will rely on to make a fortune in the future. I am not greedy enough to take away people's wealth."
Luo Xuan asked him, "Then you clearly know that I can't get away for a while. Now you specifically mention this, what do you mean?"
Liu Fugui said in a low voice: "It doesn't matter if you don't transfer the formula. But can you give me some of that secret potion?
From now on, if I go into the mountains to catch fish, I can do it myself, and you won’t have to run around so hard. How about that?"
Luo Xuan thought for a while.
I think Liu Fugui’s proposal is very promising!
I only give him a large bamboo tube of water every time, and the capacity of the bamboo tube is in my hands.
Even if Liu Fugui went into the mountains, he wouldn't be able to catch many fish.
Since the capacity of the bamboo tube is limited, it goes without saying that he will only pick larger fish to catch, so there is no need to worry about Liu Fugui catching small fish.
In this way, it will not pose too great a threat to the angler fish in the mountains.
Anyway, only I have the spring water in the space, and this is my family, there is no other semicolon.
Luo Xuan wasn't worried about him copying it.
If we all make money together, the road will become wider and wider.
Moreover, Liu Fugui will take care of everything, so he doesn’t have to worry about being “cut off” by the township government in the future...
