slack farmer in the wasteland

Chapter 241 Small Harvest
Standing on the field stalk, Hu Shijie watched Wei Wenkui adjust the position of the harvester, while chatting casually with Cang Hai.

"Wait until the wheat is harvested and you go out for a walk, don't stay in the village, or wait for Secretary Qiao to come, maybe I will kill you again," Hu Shijie said.

Cang Hai hummed to express that he understood, of course he knew that he had become a favorite of those who cared about him, not to mention anything else, he could roughly figure it out just by looking at the taxes he had just paid to the county, Cang Hai only How much income can be earned from watermelons.Although Secretary Qiao is not necessarily such a person, he still needs to guard against it.

"Then I'll go to the magic city tomorrow, and I'll be with my uncle and aunt's family, and I'll go see my teacher and godmother along the way," Cang Hai said.

Li Liren next to him also said: "Well, you spend some of the money, so that you can have an excuse when you encounter such things in the future."

Cang Hai scratched his head after hearing this: "I don't have much money to spend, I almost have everything I should have in a house and a car."

Cang Hai is telling the truth, he really doesn’t have anything special to spend money on, and it’s not like other people like luxury cars and luxury houses. He’s not too interested in these things. Can't earn it?
For Canghai, a small Mercedes-Benz and a big house in Mingzhu are enough. The kilns in my hometown are also comfortable enough. What kind of swimming pool and the like can be found downhill. It is natural and pollution-free and does not need to change the water. I am enjoying it. Shanghai Canghai doesn't have any big pursuits at all.

After hearing this, Hu Shijie gave Cang Hai a look, and opened his mouth and said, "You won't buy some shopfronts in the county town, whether you rent them out or start a small business."

Hearing that Cang Hai said that there was nothing to spend money on, both Hu Shijie and Li Liren wanted to reach out and beat this idiot.

"Shop? What do I want that thing for?" Cang Hai replied after listening.

"You coward!" Hu Shijie stretched out his hand and pointed at Cang Hai. He didn't know what to say to him: "Otherwise, what is the money doing in the bank? Earning that little interest is not enough to depreciate, and now the money is worth less day by day Let’s take a look at what 100 yuan could buy ten years ago, and look at it now? You can only make more money if you put it in the bank for a month. What was the price of 2000 yuan 20 years ago, and how much can you buy now?”

Li Liren said: "Yes, 15 years ago, a boxed meal in the county town was only five yuan, but now there is no fifteen yuan, and the boxed meal has tripled, which means that the same 100 yuan is enough to buy one-third of the purchasing power. It is a little bit of money." It’s better to take it out and buy some paving or something else, just a store of value is enough.”

"Yo, I never thought that you two are financial experts," Cang Hai said jokingly.

"Be serious, let me tell you something serious," Hu Shijie said.

Cang Hai put away the smile on his face, and said solemnly: "Okay, when I leave, I will stop by the county town, buy a suitable shop, and spend some money to go out."

"Well, in this case, if someone asks someone to donate some money in the future, you will have an excuse. Otherwise, when they see you have so much money lying in the bank, they will naturally plan to borrow it for use. By then, you will not offend others by borrowing it. Asking for money will offend people even more, and if you spend all the money on the surface, you will be famous and poor," Hu Shijie said.

Cang Hai smiled and asked: "Then next year the village will have money, and others will ask you to pick some out to support something, what do you say?"

"The money in the village is the public property of the village. Who would dare to make such an idea? If he dares to hit me, I will dare him to take out the mortgage," Hu Shijie said confidently.

Hu Shijie has naturally thought about this issue, let alone next year, when the Japanese money arrives in a few days, he may have to face the autumn wind in the county. Hu Shijie is not afraid, because he is a village director and lost money. It was lost, and anyone who wanted to touch the money would have trouble with everyone in the village.

Even if anyone else came over to be the village director, he would definitely not be willing to give up this benefit for nothing, and it would be even more difficult to please someone from outside. If the villagers' money was used, it would be considered as a way to save face for him. .

"Hey! There are quails in your field!"

Wei Wenkui, who was driving the harvester, said loudly.

After hearing this, several people hurried over, stretched their heads to look, and as expected, they found a nest of quail eggs in the field, which looked like a dozen or so. Unfortunately, they were run over by the harvester, and the nest of quail eggs became quail eggs. None of the flowers are perfect.

The three of them were looking at the quail eggs, when suddenly a hare jumped up again, flashed in front of the three of them quickly, and got into the depths of the wheat field.

"Why do you have everything in this field? Others' fields have harvested several pieces, but here you have quails and hares," Hu Shijie said.

Cang Hai replied: "How would I know!"

"Okay, don't talk about such useless things, let's turn around and see if there are any quail eggs or something. It's better to look for them than to be run over by the harvester," Li Liren said.

The three of them started to line up while chatting, and walked in the field to look for quail eggs.

After a while, Cang Jing and Lin Zhijing came over hand in hand, saw the appearance of the three of them, and asked curiously, "What are you doing?"

Cang Hai casually replied, "Look for quail eggs!"

When Cang Jing heard this, she immediately regained her spirits: "Are there quail eggs in the field?"

After Cang Jing came back, she nestled in the kiln, waiting for Lin Lijing to stick together again. She didn't have time to understand the changes in the village, so she didn't know how good the natural conditions in the village are now.

"Well, a nest has just been run over in your second brother Hai's field, let's find out if there are others." Before Li Liren finished speaking, he heard him laughing: "Here! There is one here! "

While talking, he bent down, pulled his skirt with one hand, and picked up the quail eggs on the ground with the other.

Cang Jing let go of Lin Zhijing's hand as soon as she heard this, and quickly ran to Li Liren's side, stretched her head and yelled: "There are really quail eggs, and there are quite a few, there are seven or eight."

Lin Zhijing has never seen quail eggs in the fields. Although they are all children from the countryside, there are very few such things in the southern countryside. Because of the use of chemical fertilizers and other chemical preparations in the fields, leeches are not common. How can there be? There are things like quail, not to mention quail, and even sparrows are not as many as before.Hearing this, he immediately ran to Li Liren's side, and stretched out his head to look.

Cang Hai and Hu Shijie continued to search forward, and Hu Shijie quickly found a nest of wild eggs, not many in number, only five, a bunch of wild eggs with green shells, not big, a little smaller than ordinary grass eggs Number.

"Wait, I'll go back and get a basket. There are two nests of quail eggs and one nest of wild eggs in such a small place. There must be a lot left." Cang Jing cheered, turned her head and took Xiao Pao back to the village to get the basket up.

The rest of the people continued to search along the wheat field with their eggs in their bags.

"There is also a nest here." Lin Zhijing found a nest of wild eggs for the first time, and immediately shouted loudly at the crowd, and at the same time picked up an egg and pointed it at Cang Hai.

Li Liren, who was closer to Lin Zhijing, looked up and said, "Your eggs are not wild eggs, but grass eggs."

"What? Isn't this a wild egg?" Lin Zhijing was disappointed when he heard that, he put the egg in front of his eyes, and asked after looking at it carefully.

Li Liren said affirmatively: "It's not wild eggs, it's grass eggs. I don't know whose chickens laid the eggs here. It is estimated that they are also Canghai's chickens. The whole village doesn't care about his chickens."

This is true. Other chickens have been trained and lay eggs in the coop. Cang Hai’s chickens are left alone to lay wild eggs. From time to time, you can see an old hen leading a group of chicks from the chicken coop. The chickens in the chicken coop of Cang Hai's house are all different sizes, they are completely miscellaneous, and from time to time there are some pheasants who come to Cang Hai's house to eat and drink, Cang Hai doesn't care .

Seeing that Lin Zhijing didn't believe it, Li Liren took a wild egg and put it together with the grass egg in Lin Lijing's hand and explained it to him.

In the past, there were few pheasants in the village, and Li Liren couldn't tell them apart, but since the natural conditions around the village improved, pheasants are also common. Come out the difference.

After hearing this, Lin Lijing realized that the eggs in his hands were indeed grass eggs, not wild eggs.

When Cang Jing ran back with the basket, even Cang Hai had a nest of quail eggs in his pocket, and everyone put the eggs in the basket and continued to search.

Wei Wenkui is a little anxious now, because everyone is looking for eggs in the field, which invisibly slows down the work efficiency of the harvester.

"Hey, can you please hurry up, I have to wait for a while to collect a ridge here, and collecting this piece of land is more tiring than collecting three yuan from other fields. The machine starts and stops and starts again, what a waste of time" Wei Wenkui Said.

Cang Hai raised his head and said, "Old Uncle Wei, why don't you collect yours first, and we'll look for them here. It's a pity that your eggs are crushed so quickly."

"Okay, then take my side first, and wait for your side to take it."

Speaking of which, Wei Wenkui drove the harvester to the nearby field and began to harvest his own wheat.

Four or five people lined up in the field and started a carpet-like search. After sweeping a wheat field, everyone actually harvested a basket full of eggs.

In addition to the eggs, there are also a few silly quails, the kind that no one knows how to run when they meet them, and now they have been caught obediently, with cloth strips tied to their feet and threaded into a string.

Hu Shijie looked at the basket full of eggs and said, "You coward, haven't you been to the wheat field a few times?"

Although the wheat fields of other people's homes are not fattened, they will go in and weed if they have nothing to do. Naturally, pheasants and quails will not choose this kind of place to make their nests. Only Cang Hai's wheat field has no one at all, and the wheat The growth is good, the waist-deep wheat becomes a natural cover, and the wheat grains grow so big that there is also food, and there are no humans to disturb it, so it has become a paradise for these small animals.

Cang Hai said with a smile: "Isn't it just to eat some food, don't you see that the eggs in this basket make up for the loss of food?"

After hearing this, Hu Shijie stretched out his hand and tapped Cang Hai, not knowing what to say.

There are so many quails and pheasants nesting in the field, this kid is ashamed to say that he has made up for the loss. Adding these goods together, as well as hares and so on, according to Hu Shijie's estimate, the wheat field has been reduced by at least [-]%. Fortunately, I am ashamed to say that a basket of eggs will make up for it.

"Okay, this basket of eggs will belong to you, anyway, you are going to see your teacher or something, so let this basket of eggs be a gift," Hu Shijie said.

Cang Hai was not polite either, and said with a smile, "I'm just thinking about it."

Cang Jing listened and looked at the basket bluntly: "Second brother, do you want to save some, hatch the eggs, and wait for next year to have quail and pheasant to eat."

Li Liren listened and said with a smile: "Girl Jing, if you want to eat, you can go to the grass and grab it yourself. From the bamboo forest in the west of the village, there are many quail eggs in the small bushes between the pine forests. You If you are not afraid of being pricked, you can find half a basket of eggs in at most half an hour."

"So much?" Cang Jing was stunned for a moment, then opened her mouth and asked, "Then why don't I see people from the village pick it up?"

"What did you pick it up for?"

"Sell money, no one eats quail eggs?" Cang Jing asked.

Li Liren said: "Selling money can sell money, but have you ever thought about how much money you can sell after picking up all these eggs? After all, God gave me a face. There are trees and grass growing around our village, but we I can only hope to catch these wild animals and sell them for money, and if they sell them all, only the forest will be left.

The folks have all suffered from the poor environment, the kind that hurts your heart!I used to walk dozens of miles without seeing a forest, not a single wild animal, and nothing but wild mice in the wild. Now that the environment is better and there are more wild animals, I naturally have a simple sense of protection. .

From their point of view, these things are now living on the land where their ancestors lived, and if they have the opportunity, their children and grandchildren should also be able to watch these things grow up. Simple sense of protection.

After hearing this, Hu Shijie opened his mouth and said to Cang Jing: "We have to establish a rule after this matter. It doesn't matter if we eat these wild animals around the village and get some gifts as gifts. If anyone calls out to buy them and expect them to make money, There are national laws above, and village rules below, even if the national laws cannot rule people, but the rules of the village will, don't expect to get a penny from the village!"

Cang Hai couldn't help giving Hu Shijie a thumbs up after hearing this.It has to be said that the village has made a lot of progress, and Hu Shijie has become more assertive in his words, directly stating the horses and horses, and if you expect to destroy the environment of the village, he will have the confidence to drive people away.

Cang Hai is in favor of protecting the environment. Otherwise, he will have a good life in Shanghai, but what will he do when he returns to the countryside? Isn't he hoping to change the environment in the village and help the villagers live a better life?How about Cang Hai squatting in the magic city, doing things that the rich second generation can do when his eggs are hurting, holding his nose, making a supercar, pulling it out from time to time and blasting the street, and getting envious eyes from some little girls!
After harvesting a basket of eggs, Wei Wenkui returned to the field to continue harvesting wheat. Even though Cang Hai and the others searched for a crop, some still slipped through the net. The harvester still crushed two or three nests of eggs. It can be seen that Cang Hai's wheat field has directly become chickens. Wozi, there are still wild rabbits, but it's a pity that the rabbits run too fast and the tiger's head is not there, so I didn't catch a single rabbit, otherwise I could eat rabbit meat at noon.

The wheat was harvested and the husks were removed, and the rest was to be dried. The open space in front of Cang Hai’s house was directly spread out, and it was used as a wheat drying field. The freshly harvested wheat was enjoying the greetings of the sun. Finalist.But Cang Hai couldn't wait anymore, he had to go out to avoid Secretary Qiao's limelight.
