Now there is smoke everywhere, and there is a pungent and pungent smell everywhere.
In the commune, a large number of locusts have been purchased.
All commune cadres were sent to various production teams to encourage commune members to actively catch insects and then sell them to the commune.
People are not afraid of the many locusts brought by the members!
On the desk at the entrance of the commune, there are piles of banknotes...
Among this money, the commune's accumulated withdrawals over the years were used as unified funds.
There are also temporary loans that the communes borrowed from credit unions. There is also the Red Star Commune, where employees of various enterprises, institutions, factories and mines donated money and misappropriated their working capital.
Among them, Hongxing Agricultural Machinery Factory is undoubtedly the leader.
As early as more than a month ago, Liu Fugui had already followed Luo Xuan's suggestion: to push out goods vigorously and then withdraw the funds as soon as possible.
It does not simply pursue efficiency, but focuses on the pursuit of cash as king.
Inside the commune, a large number of locusts were purchased.
The same goes for the Zhengxing Brigade.
The price they gave for purchasing locusts, even per catty, was 2 cents more expensive than in the commune.
However, due to geographical location, the commune purchased more locusts after all.
The members are not stupid.
In order to sell for an extra 2 cents a pound, I have to travel an extra ten or eight miles. This is unaffordable.
If you have that skill,
Go back quickly and catch more locusts. No matter how you calculate it, it is much more cost-effective than selling the locusts to the Zhengxing Brigade...
The locusts that everyone hates can now be sold for money? This makes the entire Red Star Commune members extremely happy!
Many people from other communes even came to Red Star Commune to catch insects and sell them for money.
this action,
The other commune cadres were so angry that they jumped up and cursed at the commune members who were greedy for money: Why don't you catch the locusts on your own land?
But he just went to Red Star Commune to do good things for others?!
What kind of behaviors are these?
What kind of nature is this?!
But the cadres got angry, but they couldn't stop their own members from sneaking to the Red Star Commune to make money...
no way,
After all, awareness cannot be bought in exchange for money.
And without money, you can’t buy food to take home and fill your family’s stomachs.
before,
Everyone saw that the locust plague was so severe this year, and all the members had a look of sorrow on their faces.
It's better now.
These locusts can actually increase the income of the family?
Even after catching locusts for a week, the income I earned was actually worth more than half a year's worth of work in the production team.
Even higher!
This time,
With the stimulation of a high income, the faces of the members not only lost the sad look before.
When everyone sees swarms of locusts, they even burst into laughter!
In their eyes, locusts flying in the air are nothing more than 2 cents or 5 cents coins...
one by one,.com
Regardless of men, women, old or young, everyone caught locusts with great enthusiasm!
All the members of Zhengxing Brigade worked hard to catch locusts in the fields day and night.
As for Takashi Zen and Takumi Rei, they are not suitable for frequent appearances.
so,
Tuo Haili spent the whole day hiding in Luo Xuan's yard, helping with cooking and so on, so that Aunt Zhang and the third sister-in-law could free their hands to catch locusts in the fields.
Now,
Luo Xuan's courtyard is closed all day long. Even the agency store is closed these days.
If you meet a member's house, you need to buy salt or headache powder urgently.
They can only tell what they need to buy outside the courtyard gate.
Then the Stone Exhibition Hall opened a small window across the courtyard door and handed the things out.
Get the money back at the same time.
Anyway, the members knew that there was someone in Luo Xuan's yard, but they never saw Tuo Shizhan's true face.
"Grandpa, Luo Xuan spent so much money to buy Locusts, he's not afraid of losing it all?"
Takumi used a huge broom to sweep away the locusts all over the yard.
While chatting with her grandfather, "I heard that Zhengxing Brigade has no money in its books now.
This time, all the money paid for the purchase of locusts by the brigade was paid by Luo Xuan personally.
In this case, the money he advanced is too much, right? How about we also take out the money from selling the house and give it to Luo Xuan first?"
Tuo Shizhan shook his head: "Don't worry, since Luo Xuan has not asked us to borrow money. I think he can still turn over the money on hand."
Tuo Haili stamped her feet and said: "Grandpa! How can we let Luo Xuan speak first about this kind of thing? If he is too embarrassed to open his mouth to borrow money from us.
And if the money Luo Xuan has on hand cannot be recycled, won't this make him lose face in the entire Zhengxing Brigade?
Moreover, it also delayed the members from selling locusts!
You know, when encountering such a big natural disaster, at this time, everyone can only boost their energy, but must not let it go."
Tuo Shizhan laughed: "Don't worry, my good granddaughter. Luo Xuan is not as simple as you think!
The commune members took the locusts to the production team to exchange for money, and when the time came, Luo Xuan would get all the money back."
When Takumi heard it,
He was so surprised that he even stopped waving the broom in his hand, "How is this possible, Grandpa? How can Luo Xuan get his money back?"
"food!"
Tuo Shizhan said, "What will the members do when they have money? Buy food!"
Takumi asked: "In this consignment store, we sell hundreds of kilograms of grain and dozens of kilograms of vermicelli every month. How much money can we get back?"
"Haili, you think things are too simple."
Tuo Shizhan smiled and said: "Let's not ignore the mysterious big grain merchant, who is he? Let's just say that only Luo Xuan has a single line of contact with him.
If Luo Xuan bought a pound of sweet potatoes for 1 cents and 2 cents, he would then sell them to another production team for 1 cents for 1 cents.
Others have to rush to say it, but in the end, I have to say thank you to him!"
"ah?"
Tuo Haili was shocked: "No way, Luo Xuan, will he make money in these aspects?"
Tuo Shizhan said: "I think it is entirely possible. At the frog market, a pound of sweet potatoes in good storage condition can already be sold for 19 cents.
Last time, Luo Xuan sold 20,000 catties at a price of 1.5 cents per catty.
Haili, think about it, if Luo Xuan raises the price to 2 cents, all the big teams will rush to get it.
Otherwise, who in the frog market can produce such a large amount of grain?"
Tuo Shizhan and them only thought that there was a real and mysterious grain merchant.
only,
That person seemed to only have one-way contact with Luo Xuan, and would never take advantage of others.
Tuo Shizhan and the others have this understanding, which is actually normal: based on his understanding of Luo Xuan.

If there wasn't a real big grain merchant, how could Luo Xuan have so much grain on hand?
Tuo Haili still couldn't figure it out, so she asked, "Grandpa, since there are so many people rushing to get sweet potatoes that cost 2 cents a pound. Why doesn't that big grain merchant sell them himself?
?”
Tuo Shizhan smiled slightly: "A dragon crossing a river must also be afraid of local snakes.
Think about it, Luo Xuan is so well-known in Hongxing Commune. What if the grain merchant did not entrust Luo Xuan to help him sell the grain, but did it himself.
I dare say that within three days, he will be arrested! Then he will be beaten and beaten, and he will not get a penny.
If it doesn't work well, this big grain merchant will be knocked out of his jar."
Takumi pondered for a while,
Then he shook his head: "It's a good thing that a grain merchant came to the Red Star Commune and sold the precious grain to the members.
Regardless of whether the price is high or low, the members will always have food to eat. In my opinion, Luo Xuan will not stand in the way."
Tuo Shizhan thought for a while,
I think what my granddaughter said makes sense.
In the end, Tuo Shizhan shook his head. Since he couldn't understand the key, he stopped thinking about it!
"Forget it, maybe the grain merchant is scaring himself for fear of being unsafe, so he doesn't dare to sell grain himself?"
Tuo Shizhan said: "Let's not think so much about Luo Xuan, but it is better to analyze less and fight less.
Otherwise, if we offend him and bury our grandfather and grandson on this piece of red earth, we will be in trouble..."
"Then let's not mess with him!"
Tuo Haili smiled and said, "I also want you, grandpa, to enjoy your old age here."
Tuo Shizhan gave a wry smile: "If you want to enjoy your old age in peace, you must first be able to feel at ease, then you can do it!"
Takumi Rei is ice and smart.
Hearing the words,
She blushed and muttered in a low voice, "It's not that I don't want to. I can't see that Luo Xuan has that kind of thoughts about me. Grandpa, what can I do?
Woolen cloth?"
Tuo Shizhan said: "Didn't Luo Xuan often say that as long as the spirit does not decline, there are always more solutions than difficulties?
If you have a goal, then try your best to try it! If you don’t work hard, how will you know the result?"
The grandfather and grandson were talking.
Suddenly I felt a gust of wind blowing.
This wind, carrying a pungent smell, filled with withered grass and locusts, became stronger and stronger.
In the blink of an eye, there was flying sand and rocks, making the sky dark and the earth dark!
The grandfather and grandson were in a state of astonishment.
Then I heard bursts of muffled thunder coming from the sky! When I looked up, I saw countless black clouds rolling in with the strong wind...
The land that had been sunny and sunny just a moment ago suddenly became covered with dark clouds.
It was so dark that it felt like night had fallen early.
"Is it going to rain heavily?"
Tuo Shizhan closed his eyes tightly, listening attentively to all the sounds coming from the sky, and murmured to himself: "During a long drought, we encountered such a strong wind? Why did I suddenly feel this in my heart?
What about the one that’s a little dangling?”
"Grandpa, are you worried about hail?"
Seeing the sudden change in weather,
Tuo Haili quickly found a dustpan and a sack, and put the locusts she had swept into them one by one.
Locusts put in sacks like this cannot be sold, but at least they can prevent these locusts from flying outside to harm crops.
Tuohaili was going to pack the locusts like this first.
Then they were beaten to death on the ground and thrown into the fire to dry at night.
Thus,
Not only can a sack of locusts be eliminated, but more or less, it can also be sold for a few dollars to supplement household income.
This time,
Takumi Rei and his grandson saw many people coming here to eat and drink Luo Xuan all day long.
After returning to the Zhengxing brigade, the members were busy going out to eliminate locusts, and they basically couldn't care about cooking.
so,
Every night, Uncle Ding, Third Sister-in-law and others, after working in the fields all day, would come to Luo Xuan's house to eat and chat.
Plus Aunt Zhang, Uncle Zhang's family, Xiaocao, and Zhou Laosan.
Every night when dinner time comes, there are one or two tables full of people eating...
The two grandsons of Tuo Haili were so frightened by the food!
Both grandfather and grandson were secretly worried about Luo Xuan: Why does Luo Xuan have to support so many people?
How much will it cost and how much food will it cost?
Although a sack of locusts can't be sold for much, it can at least lighten a little burden on Luo Xuan's shoulders.
Takumi put all the locusts that were cleaned up in the yard into sacks.
At this time, there was still thunder rolling in the sky!
But after all, it was just thunder and no rain.
However, the strong wind has subsided.
All around, there was only the muffled sound of thunder and...
A row with a mother-in-law?
"Luo Xuan! I know you are at home, please open the door! I have something to discuss with you."
outside the yard,
Wang's unique sharp voice came, like a shovel hanging from the bottom of a pot, "Luo Xuan, if you have meat tickets on hand, just give me 3 or 2 kilograms."
"You often eat and drink a lot. But you don't know, your father and two younger brothers are so greedy... ugh!"
Tuo Haili heard that someone was looking for Luo Xuan.
And the man outside the courtyard seemed to be from the same family as Luo Xuan?
Tuo Haili and Toshi Zhan knew that Luo Xuan had a stepmother, but their relationship was very tense.
Now Tuo Haili heard about Wang and came to Luo Xuan to discuss the matter.
even though,
She knew that Luo Xuan didn't like Wang, and even hated Wang.
But from Takumi Rei's perspective, as an outsider, she couldn't get involved in these things.
Because in rural areas, it is really difficult for outsiders to comment on such matters.
It's like seeing a man from a commune member's family beating a woman.
If anyone rushes to hit her man, he will often not only end up in a bad situation. If he doesn't stand up for that guy, he will also have to suffer a mixed doubles fight...
therefore,
Tuo Haili, who also had the same worry, felt that if she was evil to the Wang family, she would be afraid of making Luo Xuan unhappy.
And if I try to please the Wang family, I'm afraid it will make Luo Xuan even more unhappy!
It's difficult to deal with on either side.
So Tuo Haili had no choice but to look out of the yard and replied politely, "Luo Xuan is not at home, so you should go back first! When he comes back, you can come and find him."
When Mrs. Wang outside the courtyard heard this,
He immediately snorted: "Who is a good man if he hides his head and shows his tail? And he uses a wild woman who came from nowhere to use her as a shield?
Luo Xuan, you are the emperor in the palace, is it so difficult to meet you?"
Tuo Haili was inexplicably scolded by Wang, and her chest suddenly heaved with anger!
I saw her throwing away the big broom in her hand!
