Chapter 255: Factory belonging to the educated youth
Since then, Qinling has become more proactive and is ready to squeeze Qin Hao dry. Fortunately, Qin Hao will go to other villages from time to time to provide technical guidance, otherwise this life will be difficult.
Busy days always pass by very quickly, and in a blink of an eye, winter has entered. The soybeans in the educated youth spots in each village have also entered the harvest season, and the golden soybeans are piled up in the small courtyards of the educated youth.
Big barrels of soybean oil from Datong were booked as soon as they were squeezed out. Seeing that the new year was approaching, soybean oil was becoming more and more popular. After a month of busy work, Qin Hao had more than five figures in cash. This was because he took the initiative to pay taxes.
The balance was left after that.
What’s more interesting is that the small courtyard for educated youth began to press oil like crazy, and the livestock in Yangshu Village became fat and strong. The old donkey gained ten pounds. Many villagers said that the soybean cake was originally very popular.
If you eat it, you will be injured, and this thing cannot be stored for a long time, so you have no choice but to feed it to livestock.
The educated youths in each village can also live a prosperous year. Qin Hao buys soybeans from them for one penny more than the grain station. At the same time, he also gives five kilograms of soybean oil. After excluding the money for buying grain seeds next year, he can still
There is a lot of surplus, which is much better than working part-time in the production team, and the educated youth are also very motivated.
Even the educated youth spot where Zhong Yuemin was located was no exception. At first, Zheng Tong and others were not willing to follow Qin Hao, but seeing the educated youth in other villages planting soybeans in full swing, they immediately panicked. Zhong Yuemin couldn't help but feel embarrassed.
Zheng Tong could only ask Qin Hao for guidance.
Qin Hao didn't treat him differently. After all, he was helping himself make money. However, Zhong Yuemin and the others started late, and there were always cheaters in the team. The harvest was not as good as other educated youth spots, but it was enough for them to live a decent Spring Festival.
.
It was already the day before New Year's Eve when I finished crushing the last batch of soybeans.
After eating delicious roasted pork with tofu that night, everyone sat on the fire bed that Qin Hao had set up a month ago and chatted animatedly.
"Hey, Brother Hao, how much money did we make?" Ning Yu asked curiously.
Qin Hao put the account book on the table, and everyone's eyes almost fell off when they saw it.
"Dear me, how about so much money?"
"Ten hundred thousand...More than twelve thousand, am I not dreaming? Is this all our money?"
From having nothing to nothing, to now having a huge four-digit fortune, all the educated youths have expressions of great excitement, even Qinling is no exception.
Qin Hao laughed and scolded: "How can I scare you with such a small amount of money?"
"That's not much. After all, each of us can share more than a thousand." Ning Yu smacked his tongue. Although he is also a big brother, he is still a child after all. The most money he usually comes into contact with is tens of dollars.
, I have never seen hundreds of them, let alone thousands.
Qin Hao said seriously: "What nonsense are you talking about? This is collective property. How can you put it in your own pocket? Isn't it speculation?"
This money must not be divided. Once it is divided, the composition will change. If any jealous person reports it, they will all get in.
Only then did the youngest Zhong Ling react. He said with a smile, "Even if we can't separate, that's great. We won't have to worry about starving anymore in the future."
"That's right, we can eat whatever we want from now on. Tomorrow isn't New Year's Eve. Let's make two chickens and braised pork. No tofu, let's just eat meat!" Ning Yu was so proud!
road.
Qin Hao laughed and scolded: "Looking at your potential, you know how to eat."
"Haha~~~" Everyone burst into laughter.
After the joke, Qin Hao pressed his hand to signal everyone to quiet down, and said seriously: "Have you ever thought about what to do in the future?"
"What else can we do? Let's just do this now. This thing will make a lot of money!" A male educated youth said nonchalantly.
Qin Hao asked unhurriedly: "Then have you ever thought that there is no airtight wall in the world? What if others extract oil like us? What if there is a policy from above that prevents us from doing this?"
In the final analysis, what Qin Hao is doing now is considered a side project and carries great policy risks. Without a legal identity, he can easily be reported by envious people.
In this world, it is perfectly normal to hate others and hate yourself.
Everyone looked at each other in shock when they heard this. Ning Yu asked directly: "Brother Hao, what do you say we should do? We all listen to you."
"Yes, without Brother Hao we wouldn't have the good life we have today. Whatever you say, we will do it."
After almost a year of getting along, everyone is very convinced of Qin Hao.
Qin Hao glanced at everyone, without being polite, and said in a serious tone: "We can't just live a good life ourselves, we have to lead all the educated youth and fellow villagers to live a good life."
"Well, that makes sense!" No one had any objection to this. The education they received since childhood gave this generation a strong sense of mission.
Qin Hao added: "The plateau in northern Shaanxi is poor. We can't lead so many fellow villagers to live a good life just by growing soybeans. We will have to expand our business in the future, so I plan to apply to the county to set up a factory. One belongs to us."
A factory for educated youth!”
"Educated youth's own factory?" Everyone's eyes gradually became hot.
Working in a factory as a worker is simply a dream for people of this era, and employment priority is even higher than joining the army. Now Qin Hao says that he wants to build his own factory, which sounds a bit fanciful, but it deeply touches everyone.
of nerves.
If it could really be done, what kind of innovation would it be?
"But, can the county agree?" Qin Ling was a little worried.
This sentence is like a basin of cold water to cool everyone down quickly.
Qin Hao nodded: "It is indeed not easy, but it is not completely hopeless. Don't forget, our county is now a pilot county. In the future, this model of self-sufficiency for educated youth may be extended to the whole country."
"I plan to write a letter to my superiors."
Qin Hao knew very well that the county would not easily agree to this kind of thing. The risk was too great, and they would only dare to give out policies with approval from higher-level departments.
Everyone looked extremely shocked after hearing this. After all, the superior leaders...
"I also plan to invite the educated youth to sign together, so that superior leaders can see the voices of all our educated youth."
For a long time, Qin Ling looked at Qin Hao with admiring eyes: "You write it, I will be the first to sign."
"Count me in."
"Brother Hao, count me in!"
A single spark can start a prairie fire. Qin Hao looked at the fiery eyes and felt so heroic that he wrote a letter to his superiors on the stationery.
The letter elaborated on the previous difficulties of the educated youth, the current situation, and prospects for the future, and finally wrote his name.
Qin Ling followed closely and signed his name, followed by Ning Yu, Zhong Ling...
It snowed heavily on New Year's Eve, but Yangshu Village seemed particularly lively. Pig slaughtering began in the village early in the morning. Two fat, white pigs were driven out of the pig pen, and several big men with cigarettes in their mouths drove them away neatly.
Walk.
The onlookers' mouths were almost drooling. They were all holding basins and meat tickets in their hands, waiting to share the meat.
Hundreds of people in the village were counting on these two big fat pigs to satisfy their cravings.
The steaming pork was cut into pieces by the butcher. The villagers finally bought the pork they had been longing for, and they all smiled happily.
"Hey, isn't this Xiao Zhong? Are you here to buy pork too?" A villager spotted the educated youth queuing up.
"Well, isn't it the Chinese New Year?"
Zhong Ling licked his lips, but kept staring at the pork on the eucalyptus board.
Soon, I arrived at Zhong Ling to buy meat: "Bring me two elbows and ten pounds of pork."
Originally, Qin Hao planned to buy some pig meat, but the result was unanimously rejected by the educated youths. In their view, meat tickets were so valuable that buying pig meat was simply a crime.
There is no other way, Qin Hao can only obey the majority.
When they heard that the educated youth had bought so much meat, the villagers present were all furious: "How can you afford to buy so much?"
"That's right, do you have so many meat tickets?"
Zhong Ling handed over the meat ticket and the money unconvinced: "Here."
"Tsk, tsk, look at these young people who just don't know how to live, so they bought so much meat at once."
"Where did their educated youth get so many meat tickets? This issue needs to be investigated carefully!"
Zhong Ling's face changed slightly, and she couldn't help but admire Qin Hao's foresight. In this era of scarce supplies, many things cannot be hidden. If you eat an extra piece of meat, some people will be jealous.
After the educated youths who bought the meat went back, they told the story again, and the educated youths were a little aggrieved.
"What's going on with these people? We haven't eaten their meat. Besides, we gave them soybean oil and bean dregs before."
Qin Hao knew that this was human nature and it was difficult to explain clearly. It seemed that he had to send the letter as soon as possible after the new year, otherwise he would inevitably run into trouble.
At noon, the educated youths made dumplings with the pork they had just bought. Two old hens bought from the market and raised for half a month also died. The chicken feathers on the ground indicated that they had come to this world.
The freshly killed old hens were soaked in the boiling water of the casserole with fresh grass. The scent was so intoxicating that even Qin Hao swallowed his saliva.
Around five o'clock in the afternoon, the sky began to darken, the New Year's Eve dinner was served, and a group of educated youth gathered around a large table.
"It's a pity that there is no wine." Ning Yu took a bite of braised pork and smacked his lips, feeling a little unfinished.
Zhong Ling smiled and scolded: "Come on, it's good if you can eat meat. I also want wine."
Ning Yu chuckled and looked at Qin Hao: "Brother Hao, why don't you take out your bottle of Maotai? It's rare that you are so happy today."
Qin Hao glared at him, and seeing everyone looking forward to it, he couldn't help laughing and scolding: "You are all thinking about all my good things."
Qin Hao carried that bottle of Maotai from the capital and was reluctant to drink it. After opening the bottle cap, a strong aroma of wine filled the room.
It was quickly divided up, and even Zhong Ling wanted to have a taste.
Perhaps under the stimulation of alcohol, the emotions of the educated youth also exploded at this moment. Zhong Ling suddenly said with tears in his eyes: "I miss my mother."
For a moment, the room was silent, and some educated youths were already secretly wiping their tears.
They are all teenagers. In later generations, they are still in high school. Now they are far away from their hometown and come to this remote country. How can they miss home? They are just holding it in. Now under the influence of alcohol
Under stimulation, everyone vented their anger.
I don't know if they were too drunk or because of their mood. Soon, everyone was drunk. Even Zhong Ling was drunk. Only Qin Hao and Qin Ling were still sober, so they had no choice but to help them clean up the mess.
He carried them to the fire bed, took off their coats and covered them with quilts. After doing all this, Qin Hao was sweating slightly, and Qin Ling's drunkenness also started to take effect, and he threw himself into Qin Hao's arms.
Before Qin Hao could say anything, he kissed her directly. Qin Hao was confused for a moment and began to respond fiercely.
........
Until late in the night, just when Qin Hao and Qin Ling were about to get up and clean up, Zhong Ling suddenly stood up in confusion, startling Qin Ling, and quickly retracted his head into the bed.
"Are you awake?" Qin Hao smiled at Zhong Ling with a slightly embarrassed smile.
Zhong Ling nodded in confusion, glanced around the room, and suddenly said, "Where's Sister Qin Ling? Why isn't she here?"
Qin Hao said perfunctorily: "Oh, she just went to have a convenience."
"Oh." Zhong Ling shook his head: "Well, I'll go too."
After saying that, he opened the door and went out. Qin Ling quickly put on his clothes as quickly as possible and then chased after him.
A few minutes later, Qin Ling came back with Zhong Ling. The girl got into her bed and fell asleep again.
The period during the Chinese New Year should be regarded as a rare leisure time in rural areas. Even after three days of the New Year, the fields are still frozen and it is impossible to cultivate. We can only wait for the spring to go to the fields to work.
Qin Hao took advantage of this time to go to the county, but as he expected, both Director Ma of the Educated Youth Office and the county leaders were all procrastinating on his plans to set up a factory.
.
"Comrade Xiao Qin, your desire to do things is worthy of praise, but you should also pay attention to the impact. Now I have heard some rumors that you educated youths are eating and drinking and extravagant. This is not good."
Fortunately, Qin Hao didn't count on them. After coming out, he sent the letter he wrote to his superiors.
What followed was a long wait. Until the beginning of spring, Qin Hao did not wait for any response.
Instead, news came that Qin Yiming had been rehabilitated and not only was he released, he was also returned to his original post.
Qin Yiming called the county that day, and the county leaders sent someone to take Qin Hao from Yangshu Village to the county.
Qin Yiming on the other end of the phone was very excited and said that he had completed the procedures for Qin Hao and could let him enter the army immediately.
"Dad, forget about joining the army, I still have some unfinished business here."
Qin Yiming's tone was very sincere: "I've heard everything about you. It's amazing, but you should also understand that there is no future in staying in the countryside. You should follow my arrangement and join the army, even if you don't want to be a soldier in the future.
, after being discharged from the army and recovering, you can be assigned a job in the city."
"Dad, I know you are thinking about me, but I still want to give it a try." Qin Hao said firmly.
Qin Yiming was silent on the other end of the phone for a long time and sighed: "Okay, I respect your opinion, but I still hope you can consider it carefully."
