Back to 1980: Please Love Me Again

Chapter 22 Mantis Catching Cicadas
Just as Zhao Wenmu and Li Guofu agreed on the next cooperation plan.

Sanlizhuang, Sun Guoqing's home.

Sun Guoqing broke up with his family a long time ago. He doesn't care about his relatives. Anyway, the whole family is poor. All the money of his parents has been emptied by himself to build a new house.

So the current situation is that he lives alone in the new house, and his parents and his elder brother's family are still crowded in the old house.

Both sides are indifferent to each other, as if the other does not exist.

"Brother Guoqing, ask clearly! Zhao Wenmu sells wild game to the state-run restaurant. The price is 2 yuan a catty for hare and pheasant, and 1 yuan and 2 catties for fish!"

Li Ergou managed to get these words from a waiter in the state-run restaurant.

Well, that "waiter" is Wang Youming.

"The waiter also said that the county state-run restaurant is still helping the city's state-run restaurant to buy game, and Zhao Wenmu's supply is simply not enough!"

"*Damn it! He can sell things for a few cents a catty for 2 yuan! No wonder he made a lot of money!"

"Then what shall we do?"

"Yes, what shall we do?"

Li Ergou and the other two who were in charge of following up couldn't hold back anymore, selling wild game was too profitable!

"Go, get Zhao Wenbao and the others, and let's catch rabbits too!"

Sun Guoqing gathered all his younger brothers.

A group of people marched into the mountain to catch rabbits.

At noon, Shanqian Village.

Zhao Wenmu came to Zhao Xuelei's house with two bottles of Laobaigan, a piece of pork, and two boxes of big chicken in his pocket.

"Auntie, where's my second uncle?"

"It's Xiaomu, come as soon as you come, why are you carrying so many things!"

Dong Wenhua, Zhao Xuelei's daughter-in-law, was all smiles and hurriedly welcomed Zhao Wenmu into the yard.

"Your second uncle went to feed the cows, and he will be back soon. You go in and sit down."

After she finished speaking, she entered the kitchen. She was preparing lunch when Zhao Wenmu entered.

At this moment, there are guests coming to the door, so naturally I have to cook a few more dishes.

Zhao Wenmu was not polite, so he sat in the room and waited for Zhao Xuelei.

Sure enough, Zhao Xuelei came back seven or eight minutes later.

Seeing what Zhao Wenmu brought, he asked with a straight face:
"There's nothing to be courteous about, what do you want to do, kid? Don't think I don't know you're secretly buying mountain goods."

Although his tone was serious, there was still a smile on his face.

When the second uncle of the family was really angry, he put one hand behind his back and waved Fang Qiu with the other, training the members of the commune to be as arrogant as his grandson. He has never seen it before.

Where is this now!
Zhao Xuelei's real idea is that it is a good thing for the members to use their slack time to increase their income, and he will not be a bad person!

But Zhao Wenmu came to the door with so many things, he must have some kind of ghost idea, thinking about it, his heart thumped.

"Look at what you said, can't I come and see my second uncle if it's okay?"

"Oh, that's fine, second uncle, you saw it too, hurry up and get out!"

"Farewell, Second Uncle, we haven't seen each other for so long, I have to have a drink with you no matter what."

Zhao Wenmu smiled hippiely, with a faceless look, and opened a bottle of Lao Baigan as he spoke, and poured a glass for Zhao Xuelei and himself.

"You boy!"

Zhao Xuelei pointed at Zhao Wenmu with a smile, picked up the wine glass and took a deep sip.

Dong Wenhua just brought food from the kitchen, and said with a smile:
"I'll cook another dish, you two have a good drink."

After a few mouthfuls of food and wine, Zhao Xuelei put away his smile and said seriously to Zhao Wenmu:
"Xiao Mu, what's the matter, don't hide it."

Zhao Wenmu took out the letter of introduction that Li Guofu had written to him from his pocket.

A letter of introduction for state-run restaurants to supply game and wild vegetables.

The cooperation agreement signed by the two parties involves transaction details, such as prices, etc., which are inconvenient for others to see, so Zhao Wenmu did not reveal them.

"Second Uncle, the state-run restaurant needs a batch of wild game. My little tricks alone are definitely not enough. This matter needs the assistance of the team."

"How much do you need?"

"Pheasant, hare, and wild boar weigh 340 catties a day, carp and crucian carp weigh 210 catties, and there will be more in the future."

Zhao Xuelei took a sip of his wine.

"What about the price?"

"Same as before, 7 cents for mountain goods and 5 cents for fish."

Zhao Xuelei simply put the cup to his mouth, sipping it lightly while thinking.

After a while, he put down his glass and said:
"Okay, you organize the purchase yourself, but there is one thing, you can't affect the production! In addition, for every catty purchased, you will hand over 1 cents to the production team."

"Then the production team also gave me a letter of introduction to prove that I followed the instructions of the production team!"

"No! This is absolutely not possible!"

Zhao Xuelei was very resolute in his refusal. The team could acquiesce to Zhao Wenmu's purchase of wild game, but they could not endorse him. These are two different things.

"Second Uncle, Captain Zhao, pay more than 50 yuan a day to the team, can't the team do nothing?"

"How much is 50 a day, a month, a year, do the math yourself?"

This figure will be several times the total income of the current Shanqian Village production team!
But the letter of introduction had such an impact that it was equivalent to shifting all the responsibility to the production team.

Zhao Xuelei picked up the wine glass and sipped lightly, his expression kept changing, and he didn't notice when the wine in the glass was finished.

"Second Uncle, don't worry, I want a letter of introduction to deal with the team members. The higher-level department has a letter of introduction from a state-run hotel! I'm sure I won't cheat you, will I?"

Zhao Xuelei thought about it, and it was indeed the case.

The letter of introduction from the state-run hotel is Zhao Wenmu's trump card.

And this money is too important to the village. With this money, many things in the village can be carried out.

"Okay! I'll get you the letter of introduction!"

Once the production team is settled, the rest will be easy to handle.

That night, Zhao Wenmu asked his father Zhao Xuehai to find a few old people in the village. There are only a few surnames in the village.

"Grandpas, grandpas, and uncles, this is what happened. Tell your family when you go back. If anyone is willing to do it, just go to my elder brother's orchard at five o'clock every night to deliver the goods!"

Zhao Wenmu said while raising the letter of introduction in his hand.

Then hand over the letter of introduction issued by the production team and the letter of introduction from the state-run hotel to an old man and let them check it in turn.

If you don't do this, many people will not dare to catch game and sell it.

Some people even went to the commune to report him!

In this simple and lovely age, anything is possible.

"One thing must be made clear in advance. Agricultural production must not be delayed. If anyone misses the task of farming and production teams because of hunting, his family will not want any prey in the future!"

"What's more, each family can purchase up to ten catties a day!"

Five or six hundred catties may seem like a lot, but if the whole village went hunting, even one thousand or eight hundred catties a day would be no problem.

After the news was conveyed, Zhao Wenmu felt relieved.

These elderly people were very excited, and repeatedly checked with him whether the price was wrong.

In their view, the temptation of mountain products at 7 cents per catty and fish at 5 cents per catty is too great!
Ten catties a day can earn five or six yuan!
Several old people will go home immediately to convey the good news and call their families to go hunting in the mountains.

When Zhao Wenmu saw this situation, cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

He forgot how attractive this income is to the villagers!

In case someone blindly goes hunting in the mountains, the problem will be serious if something happens!

What he didn't know was that Sun Guoqing and his group went up the mountain to catch rabbits, but not only did they not catch a few, they almost broke their legs.

He hurriedly stopped the crowd, emphasizing again and again that safety must be taken into account, and children were absolutely not allowed to go up the mountain, and large animal traps and poisons were not allowed, and one had to be careful with guns to avoid accidental injury.

Several old people have lived their whole lives and seen too many things, so they naturally understand the importance of safety.

They calmed down quickly and discussed on the spot how to ensure safety.

Early the next morning, many villagers went up the mountain to set up traps and lassoes. For the large traps that could trap wild boars, everyone tacitly put a very conspicuous mark on them to prevent anyone from getting into them by mistake.

This day was a day when countless beasts around Shanqian Village were terrified and shocked!
This day is a day for hundreds of villagers in Shanqian Village to lead a happy life!
The time soon came to evening.

Before four o'clock in the afternoon, the outside of Zhao Wenlin's orchard was already surrounded by villagers.

Sun Guoqing, Li Ergou and others were also mixed in.

Li Ergou was downcast, and the others were also haggard.

They tossed for more than a day, only tossing themselves into a mess, but they didn't catch a few rabbits.

"Brother Guoqing, we only caught a few rabbits, how much can we sell them for?"

Zhao Wenbao couldn't help complaining, last night he thought he could harvest countless wild rabbits today, and get rich in the same place!

Even if he is rich, he has already thought about which girl to marry!

As a result, a pot of cold water was poured down in reality, which made everyone feel chilled.

Sun Guoqing looked at the dense crowd. The villagers more or less brought some prey, and some even picked up a long string of rabbits with bamboo poles.

He stomped his feet hard, with sternness written all over his face.

"If we can't catch it, we'll buy it! Didn't you hear everyone saying that Zhao Wenmu buys it for 7 cents a catty, and we'll just pay you a dollar, so I don't believe we won't get it!"

Several people looked at each other and thought for a while.

this is a good idea!
