The leisurely life of farmers in mountain villages

Chapter 61 Documents
The quicksand river in the north of Taohualing Village began to flood with the arrival of the rainy season, and bathing in the river became a luxury.

After Wang Shaodong made an appointment with Li Hong to import [-] chicks the day after tomorrow, then Wang Fumin invited three poultry farmers, Ma Zhentang, He Jiaqing and He Jiaxiang, to his home.

The three of them didn't know what the Wang family had to invite them to come over. Seeing the sumptuous dishes on the table, they murmured in their hearts.

Wang Shaodong took the seat, while Wang Fumin sat on the host's seat.

"Brother Wang, if you have anything to say, just ask, there's no need to be so polite."

Among the four farmers, Wang Fumin is the oldest, so everyone calls him Old Brother Wang.He Jiaqing looked at Wang Fumin and asked straightforwardly.

Wang Fumin sighed, looked at his son, and said, "You are greedy and reckless, please tell your uncles."

Because the father and son had discussed in advance that the lease of the other three chicken farms must not be high-profile, but must be low-key, so Wang Shaodong also had a sad expression on his face.

"Uncle Jiaqing, Uncle Zhentang, Uncle Jiaxiang, that's what happened. My dad and I called everyone over for a drink today because our family has encountered some trouble."

Seeing what Wang Shaodong said, He Jiaxiang hurriedly said: "My eldest nephew, just say what you want. We are fellow villagers in our village, and we are also neighbors who came to do farming together. We will not be vague about what we should help."

Wang Shaodong looked at He Jiaxiang and nodded and said: "Uncle Jiaxiang, I feel at ease with your words. Then I will be straightforward. Didn't I contact Li Hong, a chicken seedling dealer of Hongyu chicken some time ago? Now everyone We all know that because of the avian flu, the chicks cannot be sold at all. Li Hong called me last night and asked me to do him a favor, saying what if we could help him with this matter? , In the future, we will give us the greatest discount in terms of chicklings. I thought it was the first time we had to deal with them, and we couldn’t do nothing. So, I promised to take their chicklings. Then...hey..."

When everyone heard it, they knew that the Wang family might have bought a lot of chicklings in order to build a good relationship with other chicken chick dealers, and they were afraid that the big guys would discuss how to divide these chicklings.

When He Jiaqing heard this, he patted his chest and said, "What am I supposed to be doing? It's easy to say. You just give us the chicklings."

However, Ma Zhentang and He Jiaxiang remained silent.

When Wang Fumin saw that the dishes were ready and the wine was full, he hurriedly said, "Talk while eating, let's talk while eating."

The big guy took a sip of wine, and then Ma Zhentang asked cautiously: "Dongzi, how many chicks did you promise to ask for?"

Wang Shaodong said anxiously, "Twenty-four thousand."

Puff, cough, cough.

It is estimated that He Jiaxiang was frightened by Wang Shaodong's words, so he choked on his wine and coughed continuously.

He Jiaxiang frowned, then coughed, pointed at Wang Shaodong and said, "I'm talking about Dongzi, you, cough cough, what are you doing? You, hey..."

There are [-] chicks, and the average family needs [-] chicks. There is still one chicken shed left in each family, which simply cannot hold so many chicks.

Wang Shaodong glanced at the expressions of the three neighbors around him, and he could tell that although He Jiaqing was not usually close to his family, he was more righteous, and if he was in trouble, he might help; He Jiaxiang was timid, He usually seems to be more enthusiastic when he speaks, but if something happens, he is more likely to retreat; Ma Zhentang has a complicated expression on his face, and it is hard to tell whether he intends to help or not.However, the relationship between Ma Zhentang and his father is usually the best. If his father asked, Ma Zhentang would not be ashamed to refuse.

"Dongzi, this matter is too risky for you. I can help you, but my chicken coop can only hold 2000 chicks..." He Jiaqing said regretfully.

Wang Shaodong glanced at He Jiaxiang, and he could tell that this guy wouldn't even help with two thousand chicken seedlings.

Everyone's worries are very reasonable. The live chicken market is so bad now, not to mention the new chicks, even if the two thousand chickens in hand are now, it will not be known whether it is the mother or the grandpa.

Seeing that the time was right, Wang Shaodong looked at He Jiaqing and said, "Uncle Jiaqing, if you can help me raise two thousand chicks, I would be very grateful to you. Moreover, these chickens are not for you to take over and raise them yourself, but You help us raise the chicks, the feed money, and the vaccine money, all of which are paid by our family, and our family will bear all the losses. After the slaughter, we will give you two yuan for the hard work of a chicken. What do you think?"

Last night, Wang Shaodong discussed with his father. After Wang Shaodong's analysis, Wang Fumin is also optimistic about the market at the end of the year. A chicken can be expected to make a profit of ten yuan.The profit of two yuan per chicken was counted as rent for renting other farmers' greenhouses, which was already very high at the time.

Calculated in this way, the labor cost of two yuan per chicken is 2000 yuan for 4000 chickens.And everyone has a certain amount of experience in raising chickens, knowing that raising chickens is a little more difficult in the first two weeks, and it will be much easier in the future.

The money for chicklings, feed, and vaccines are all paid by the Wang family, and I just contribute a little bit of effort. I can get 4000 yuan at the end of the year. Such a good thing is rare these days.

When He Jiaxiang heard it, he was happy.

"I said, Brother Wang, what kind of medicine are you selling in this gourd?"

Ma Zhentang frowned and looked at Wang Fumin: "Brother Wang, are you optimistic about the market at the end of the year?"

Wang Shaodong was shocked. In his previous life, Ma Zhentang was also optimistic about the market at the end of the year, so he bought 30 chicks in one go, and earned [-] at the end of the year.

Wang Fumin waved his hand and said, "Hey, who can be sure about the market?"

This rhetorical question to Ma Zhentang made Wang Shaodong very satisfied, and Ma Zhentang had to weigh this sentence.

"Uncle Jiaxiang, are you going to help our family with this favor?"

As soon as Wang Shaodong threw out the words, He Jiaxiang immediately patted his chest and said: "Dongzi, of course I, He Jiaxiang, will help you with your help, but the hard work you said about 2 yuan per chicken..."

Hearing this, Wang Shaodong hurriedly took out the documents he had prepared a long time ago, and said with a smile: "Uncle Jia Xiang, my brother is still clear about the accounts, I have a document here, black and white, let's sign it, you I'm busy, but I have to help our Wang family."

He Jiaxiang looked at the document and found that it was very simple. He took out a chicken shed to help the Wang family raise 2000 chickens. In five months, one chicken paid 2 yuan for hard work. There was no problem at all, so he signed his name immediately. .

He Jiaqing glanced sadly, frowned, and placed the documents in front of him.

"Brother, sign it, don't worry if you don't sign it, Brother Wang."

He Jiaxiang urged He Jiaqing to sign the paperwork, but Wang Shaodong did not give Ma Zhentang the paperwork, which made Ma Zhentang feel something was wrong.
