Koi benefit the whole village in modern times

Chapter 136 Acquisition (Part [-])
Xiao Jinli didn't care, because she bought earthworms, which caused a lot of discussion in the villages.

Her brother sent the news, and the next day, many people came to the door with earthworms.

Xiao Jinli looked at the densely packed earthworms in the bucket and in the plastic bag, and raised his eyebrows.

Sure enough, it is the first to strike first.

At first glance, no, in just one day, someone dug up several kilograms of earthworms.

Are earthworms so easy to dig?Xiao Jinli had some doubts in his heart.

The person who brought the earthworms to the door was from the village next door.

An old man in his 60s and [-]s, with a dark complexion, looked honest and honest, and a thin, four- or five-year-old child followed him.

He was carrying a bucket with wriggling earthworms in it. He looked at Xiao Wanshan and asked with a cautious expression on his face, "Is your family collecting earthworms?"

Xiao Wanshan knew this person from a poor family in Shigang Village next door.

This man has a disabled leg and lost his wife in his early years. He finally brought up his son and married him a wife. Who would have thought that both his son and his wife would have an accident, leaving behind a child waiting to be fed.

Because of the burden of children and disability, he can't do anything except farming at home.Therefore, his family lived in poverty.

Xiao Wanshan looked at the earthworms in his bucket and said with a smile, "We collect earthworms here. Come, let me take a look at your earthworms first."

Pity is pitiful, sympathy is sympathy, but quality must be grasped.

Shi Dajiang carried the bucket over and said, "Don't worry, I caught all these earthworms today, and all of them are alive. I'm afraid I'll be suffocated, so I'll hurry over here when it's getting dark. Well, you have a look."

Xiao Wanshan squatted down and pulled out his hand into the bucket. Apart from the coldness, it felt like the wriggling of earthworms.

He nodded and said, "Okay, let's weigh in quickly."

Take it out on the scale, a dozen weigh it, there are three catties and three liang.

Xiao Wanshan asked curiously, "How did you catch so many earthworms in just one day?"

Shi Dajiang said with a smile, "I have experience in finding earthworms. As soon as I heard that you would collect earthworms, I took my grandson and searched for a day!"

The other party didn't want to talk about it, and Xiao Wanshan didn't get to the bottom of it. He nodded and said, "Well, my house collects earthworms recently, and if you catch them, send them over."

After all, take out the money and pay the other party.

After Shi Dajiang took the money, he nodded and said, "Well, I know, I will."

If you can catch two or three catties every day, you can have thousands of dollars in a few days, and your life for half a year will not be too worrying.

Thinking of this, he saw the skinny grandson under his feet, and his eyes were red. Due to the poverty of life, the grandson has not eaten a few good meals since the death of his parents. The four or five-year-old child looks younger than his peers. , a head short.

Now that he has a little money, he plans to buy some egg ribs to make up for his grandson.

After Shi Dajiang left, Xiao Jinli looked at his back, and asked with some doubts, "Dad, do you know him?"

Xiao Wanshan nodded and said, "Yes, I know. There is a poor family in the next door village. He lost his wife in his early years, his son and his daughter-in-law in his middle age, and only one child is left behind. He has a disabled leg and has a child with him. No one wants him to work. I can only rely on one-third of an acre of land to support myself and my children, and I can’t eat well all the year round. It seems that what I feed myself and my children is a handful of bones.”

Listening to Xiao's father's words, Xiao Jinli's eyes flickered, and then she asked, "Then dad, how is his character?"

"Character?" Xiao Wanshan asked a little surprised, "As for character, it should be okay, neither stealing nor robbing, and not having grudges with others. Xiaobao, why do you ask such a question?"

Xiao Jinli said his plan, "Dad, I have to raise earthworms on such a large land, and I definitely need people to work. I need to guard it in the greenhouse every day."

Xiao Wanshan understood immediately, and he said, "So, Xiaobao, you pity him, do you want to give him a job?"

Xiao Jinli tilted his head slightly and said slyly, "Well, it can be said that way. But as long as his character passes the test, he can still give up his family's land. I don't need someone who runs home every day to farm."

Xiao Wanshan nodded and said, "Okay, I'll inquire again. If the character passes the test, I'll tell him about it."

As long as Shi Dajiang is not stupid, he will definitely agree to such a good thing.

Xiao Jinli nodded and said, "Okay, thank you Dad!"

That day, besides Shi Dajiang, there were three or four other people who also came over with earthworms.

However, their quantity is not as large as stones, just over a catty, but it is also a big income for the day.

However, a villager from Daxing Village came over with a bucket, which looked like it weighed three or four catties.

Xiao Jinli took the bucket and checked it. With his small hands in thin gloves, he flicked the inside of the bucket twice. Wen Changsheng next to him couldn't help showing some guilt on his face. He laughed twice and explained, "Little girl, These earthworms are all alive, they were dug out from the ground by our family today, so you can rest assured."

Unexpectedly, as soon as his words fell, the living things in Xiao Jinli's hands made his face change.

Xiao Jinli asked with a slightly serious expression, "Uncle, tell me, what are these things?"

"This... this..." Wen Changsheng explained anxiously and a little guilty, "Maybe the children accidentally caught a few and put them in the bucket, but I didn't notice. You can just pick them out now."

Xiao Siquan looked at the few leeches in Xiao Jinli's palm, and his face turned pale involuntarily.

He thought of a leech lying on his calf to suck blood on the day he planted rice seedlings.

He asked in a suspicious voice, "Your child went to the field to catch leeches and put them in this bucket? Uncle, how old is your child, isn't he afraid of leeches?"

Wen Changsheng said loudly, "Boys are afraid of leeches."

Xiao Jinli said in a cold voice, "So, uncle, your boys are not afraid of leeches, so they went down to catch leeches, mixed with the earthworm colony, and sold them to me together?"

Although it was true, Wen Changsheng was unwilling to admit it. He argued, "You misunderstood this. My child didn't do it on purpose. It was probably a prank, yes, it was put in this bucket as a prank. Don't worry, there are definitely not many leeches in this bucket. .”

Xiao Jinli sneered, instead put the leech in his hand directly aside, and stretched his hand in again.

Xiao Siquan looked at it, and his scalp felt a little numb.

He thought to himself, "Let's not talk about these cold and wriggling little things, which make people panic when touched, and this leech can obviously suck blood, which is very scary. But the little koi is like a toy."

After a while, Xiao Jinli had a few leeches in his hands.

Wen Changsheng, "..."
