Chapter 147 The Pretend Was Successful

Mrs. Song snorted coldly: "I haven't had time to ask you yet, what do you think you are the captain of the brigade?"

"The female educated youth started a tofu business in our team, so hurry up and arrest her and take her to the commune."

Old man Song, who was sitting cross-legged on the edge of the kang and smoking a pipe, suddenly choked on the smoke when his wife suddenly said this.

"Cough cough cough..."

Others in the room also looked at Mrs. Song suspiciously.

Mrs. Song was stared at by several pairs of eyes, she was a little confused, "Why are you all staring at me like this, I have flowers on my face?"

Immediately, the old eyes glared again, and the mouth curled up, "I'm not right? Doing business, buying and selling is a serious violation of the regulations. Don't forget how Youcheng got in."

Hmph, this time I finally caught the handle of that female educated youth, so you can't live without such a good house.

The team leader sighed helplessly, "Mother, are you confused? We countrymen do some traditional crafts in the team, such as carpentry, straw weaving, tofu, etc., to earn a little money. The country not only allows it but also encourages it. .”

"The high-educated youths are giving us food and welfare. You must not make trouble, or everyone will have opinions on you."

Mrs. Song was dumbfounded, what the hell?Is there another saying?

Old man Song knocked on the edge of the kang with a pipe, "Your third is right. I heard and saw it early in the morning. The tofu they make is big, and you can buy two for five cents."

"Based on the current price of soybeans, female educated youths don't earn much money at all. It's tantamount to helping big guys for nothing."

When Mrs. Song heard this, her expression immediately became unnatural. If she had known this was the case, she would have ordered to buy tofu as well, and she wanted to eat it too.

There are few brigades nearby that do not make tofu. I only go to the brigades in other communes to buy some frozen tofu a year, and each piece is not big.

The eyeballs rolled around: "Well, then I will go buy some tomorrow morning. There are quite a few neighbors who bought tofu this afternoon, and they are probably sold out by now."

The captain's daughter-in-law, Sun Lihua, really wanted to give her mother-in-law a big roll of her eyes, but she had heard in the afternoon that the tofu made by educated youths was always delicious, so there might be leftovers.

The captain's eldest son, Song Guoqiang, felt that he and the female educated youth surnamed Gao were very destined, and every time she came to look for his father, he would run into him.

No, it's just that I walked a little slower after returning from work, but I ran into it again.

"Father, the female educated youth is carrying a basket in the yard..."

"Thump, thump, thump..." The team leader hurried out of the room before he finished speaking.

Song Guoqiang was stunned for a moment, and then the corners of his mouth twitched wildly. It's really embarrassing, just to order something to eat...

As a result, as soon as he had this idea, the team leader came back with a large bowl of tofu, and quickly vacated the bowl and went out again.

At this moment, all the eyes in the room were fixed on the bowl of tofu on the table.

Old man Song and Mrs. Song: The white has a touch of yellow in it, so pretty.

Sun Lihua: Female educated youths are the best and most generous.

Song Guoqiang swallowed his saliva, thinking foolishly in his heart, if he married a female educated youth home as his wife, he would have tofu every day in the future.

Alas, it's just a fantasy, it must not be taken seriously.

"Little Gao educated youth, you won't lose money making tofu, right?"

The team leader was a little worried. It took a lot of work to make tofu. If he sold it at a loss, it would take a long time and who would be able to afford it.

Gao Yueyang smiled and shook her head: "No, it's just that I earn less."

"If enough tofu is sold in the past few months, the famine owed by building a house will be paid off soon."

The head of the team understood, that a small amount makes a lot.

However, at the beginning, everyone was curious and couldn't help being tempted to buy and try it, and the business would be better.

The members of the team are not rich, and after that effort, they will no longer be willing to spend money on buying them. Those who have soybeans at home may occasionally change them to tofu to eat, and forget about the rest.

However, what he didn't expect was that before the arrival of summer and the arrival of vegetables, the members of the commune would still buy tofu every ten days and a half months because it was delicious and affordable.

There are one or two hundred households in Dahewan, and each family buys tofu twice a month, so the sum of one month is not a small amount.

"Big Captain, I want to ask, since our brigade is powered on, why aren't the members' homes powered on?"

This made Gao Yueyang very surprised. The wires had already been connected to the village, so wouldn't it be easy to connect them to the members' homes?

The captain knew that people in the city used to use electricity at night, so he didn't find Gao Yueyang's question abrupt and strange.

Qing coughed and said: "Electricity also requires costs, such as wires and poles. Only when there are more than [-] households in the team willing to pull the wires, the commune will send people to install them."

"The reason is that as long as the electricity is connected, everyone can't help but use it frequently, and then pay the electricity bill."

Gao Yueyang understood, it turned out that everyone was reluctant to pay for the electricity bill, but he wanted to live a life with electricity at night.

Although the light bulb at this time is low, it is several times stronger than lighting a candle.

After pondering for a moment, he asked, "How many households were willing to connect to electricity before that?"

Captain: "Hachinohe."

Of course, these eight households include my own family and the old leader's family.

Gao Yueyang's eyes flickered, "I don't think it's difficult to persuade the members to get on the phone, captain, why don't you leave this matter to me."

"Before going to work tomorrow morning, I'll have a chat with the members at the threshing ground. Also, if you succeed then, don't think I'm stealing your limelight."

The team leader laughed: "Little high-educated youth, as long as you can get twenty households to nod and agree, it's too late for me to thank you."

Then the smiling face turned serious and said: "However, I have to tell you first, because of the electrification, I have been lobbying door to door, and the result is that I don't agree."

The implication is that if you speak tomorrow morning and everyone doesn't give you face, then don't feel ashamed and cry.

The corner of Gao Yueyang's mouth curled up: "Thank you for the reminder, captain, I still want to give it a try."

"Okay." The team leader nodded readily.

"By the way, you have to get up early every day to make tofu, can you still go to work normally?"

Selling tofu alone is not enough, earning too little, without earning work points, there will be no food distribution after the autumn harvest, and it will be worthwhile to use the money to buy it at the homes of commune members without work points.

Gao Yueyang smiled: "Don't worry, captain, I make less tofu every day, and the appointment will not delay work."

"If the commune members want to buy tofu, if they don't make it in the morning, they can come back to buy it after work at noon."

"With the current weather, the finished tofu can still be stored for two days."

The team leader felt relieved: "It's best for you to think this way. If you really don't go to work, when the new educated youth arrives, the appointment should make trouble with you."

Although, compared with the educated youths in the nearby brigades, the educated youths who came to the brigade these few times are quite peaceful and worry-free.

But it doesn't mean that you are lucky every time, just in case you get a thorn this time.
