Chapter nine hundred and eighteenth will not let you lose
The news of Yang Lina's pregnancy quietly spread throughout the village yesterday afternoon.
Zhu Xiumei originally planned to come to see Yang Lina yesterday afternoon. She heard that Tian Li's family was killing pigs and was going to treat Yang Lina and her family to dinner in the evening, so she didn't come.
Looking at Yang Lina's belly now, Zhu Xiumei remembered that when the village was building a school and a bridge some time ago, Yang Lina was just too sleepy.
"Sister Yang, your belly looks so big, is it already seven months old?"
Yang Lina took several water glasses and poured tea for everyone.
Zhu Xiumei said, taking the water glass from Yang Lina's hand.
"No, it's almost six months now."
"This belly looks really big."
After Zhu Xiumei finished chanting, she then added: "I brought you more than twenty eggs, don't dislike it."
"Sister Zhu, look at what you said, how could I dislike you? You always give me things every time I come back. I'm so thick-skinned that I'm almost up to the city wall."
Yang Lina's words made everyone laugh.
"Sister Lina, your belly looks so sharp, it must be a son."
said a woman in the village.
"It's the same whether you have a child or a daughter, as long as the child is healthy."
Yang Lina just smiled and did not tell them that she was pregnant with twins.
"Lina, actually I brought these villagers here just to discuss with you about planting peppers next year.
The families we visited today are all people who have already agreed to grow peppers with you next year.
We thought about mobilizing other people in the village privately.
I just don’t know if there is any good method on your side.”
Zhu Xiumei is the leader of these women. When others see her growing chili peppers to feed a large family in the past two years, they look envious and naturally want to follow suit.
Yang Lina took a deep breath. With just such a few families, they really couldn't reach the capacity to set up a factory in the village.
She will give birth to a baby next year, so she will definitely not focus on chili peppers. Besides, after the New Year, she also plans to open a department store in the county town.
"Sister Zhu, to be honest, you see my belly is so big, my thoughts will definitely be on my child in the coming year.
I don't know how to grow peppers, but you are good at it.
You can teach these people your methods, let’s take it step by step, slowly, do you think that’s okay?”
"Yes, as long as the peppers can be sold, we will grow them."
Zhu Xiumei knows that thanks to Yang Lina's help in the past two years, more peppers will be planted next year, and Yang Lina may not be able to do it all by herself. They have all thought of this.
But you always have to give it a try. How will you know if it doesn’t work if you don’t try?
"I originally planned to set up a factory in the village to make chili sauce if there were more chili growers in the village. I would also be able to sign a contract with you to ensure that you would not lose money. But with just a few households like you,
It is simply impossible to mobilize the whole village.
So let's not rush and take our time.
As for the sales of chili peppers, since I can talk to you, I won’t let you lose.
If you really decide, go for it.
But one thing I want to explain is that I am not forcing any of you, and I will not interfere in the profit process, so no matter what the price of peppers is in the coming year, you can’t blame me."
After all, it's hard to be a good person.
She also saw that everyone's life was too hard, and wanted to find a new way out for everyone.
Zhu Xiumei almost burst into joy when she heard this, but for the sake of Yang Lina, she decided to tell the people around her what needed to be said first.
"Sister Yang, you have already said this, how can we still not believe you?
Although this idea came from you, you also did it for our own good. Those of us here have already discussed it in private. We have to follow you to plant peppers and have nothing to do with anyone else.
Don't worry, no one will let the peppers rot in the ground next year. It's our own choice.
Sisters, do you think this is true?"
"Yes, that's right.
"We don't blame you."
Seeing that the person in front of her was in high spirits, Yang Lina raised the corner of her mouth.
Not everyone in this village thinks so hopelessly.
"Then you wait until spring starts and plant what needs to be planted. I don't have any requirements here. The only requirement is that the peppers must be red enough and spicy enough."
"Don't worry, Sister Yang, you know the peppers I grow are red and spicy."
After Zhu Xiumei finished speaking, everyone laughed again.
The group of people sat there for a while and then left.

Brick and tile factory.
Li Jingming came here after waiting for his young wife to have breakfast.
He hadn't been here for more than half a year, and he didn't take care of the accounts of the brick and tile factory. He stopped by in the early morning to see Zhao Wenhu during his break, and then looked through the account books for a while.
There is basically nothing wrong with the account book, except that there is a large amount of debt in it.
This man was introduced by Song Siyang. Within half a year, he already owed the brick and tile factory hundreds of thousands of bricks.
Li Jingming looked doubtful and frowned.
"When will this debt be due? Take the time to find Boss Sun and ask him to settle part of it before the end of the year."
After Li Jingming finished speaking, Li Jingcheng and Zhang Kaikai came to the brick and tile factory.
Li Jingcheng saw his brother looking through the account book, and it happened that the account belonged to Boss Sun. The smile on Li Jingcheng's face slowly condensed and disappeared.
"Brother, that boss Sun always says that the project funds have not been paid every time he comes, so I..."
Li Jingcheng wanted to explain that he had urged her several times, but every time Boss Sun said that the project funds had not been received yet.
"It's okay, just watch and deal with it.
After the dividends are distributed in the account this time, how much money is left?”
Li Jingming had never asked these questions before. Today he suddenly remembered and asked.
"50,000 yuan. After we pay dividends every quarter, we will leave 50,000 yuan in the card to pay workers."
Li Jingming knew that he would not be able to pay for these wages in one quarter, but he kept a little more to prepare for emergencies.
"Business in the brick and tile factory is very good. Did Sun Jian and others give them red envelopes before they left this year?"
Last year, the weather was warm, so everyone left late, and he handed out the red envelopes himself. But this year, he was too busy, and the cold weather gave them a holiday, so he didn't bother to come back to give them away.
"It's guaranteed, one hundred per person."
Li Jingcheng answered truthfully, and put it aside with a puzzled look on his face. He thought there was something wrong with the account book, but at this moment he was still thinking, what exactly was the problem with?
"That's good, it's the end of the year soon. You go to the town tomorrow, take out some money, and give each household in the village a bag of rice and noodles, and thank the elders and elders for taking care of them."
After Li Jingming finished speaking, he closed the ledgers in his hands.
