The reborn me has no pattern

Chapter 753 This New Year is not peaceful

The characteristic of the first day of the Lunar New Year is that you don’t have to do anything and just wait to eat leftovers.

Men, women, young and old were all wrapped in old cotton-padded jacket-style pajamas, and then they found a place to play cards.

As they passed the small river in the village, the sound of mahjong could be heard in the ears. Boss Zhang had nothing to do so she took Hu Hu for a walk. Zhang Ling sat on her neck and pointed at the ice flowers and fireworks along the way and kept shouting.

There are not many dogs left that can go out for a walk. Any dogs that show their teeth at people have been tied up early. If they bite someone, they will be dead.

There are only about twenty smart and free-range dogs like Huhu in the whole village, which is far less than the average number of guard dogs per household a dozen years ago.

There are more and more outsiders, so Boss Zhang always brings a leash when he goes out of the yard just in case. The dog has no resistance, after all, it is not as strong as him, and it can be easily pulled forward.

Wu Taian did not go home for the New Year. He brought his girlfriend over, but her name was not Jinlian. This disappointed Boss Zhang, so he arranged a job for her in the archives room with a sense of loss.

After arriving here and hearing about the "God of Wealth Recipe", this woman had nothing to do so she started copying it down in the archives. Because she could deal with all kinds of people in the "Shashi System", she was able to compile different recipes, which were actually richer than those printed internally.

Recently, "Da Lang" has also been studying recipes with his girlfriend, but there are too many leftovers from Chinese New Year, so they can't put it into practice until at least the middle of the first lunar month.

The "miracle" of the twins continues. The bellies of sisters Fan Susu, Zhou Yan and Zhou Shu are also incredibly big, and the news has spread a long time ago that they have registered six babies this year.

When Ding Yong heard about it, he wondered if there were really so many superstitious things involved. His wife was an elderly mother, and in this situation he was thinking about trying harder with the old man, asking Zhang Haonan to write a calligraphy piece, and then going to Qinglong Temple to ask for a peach charm or something, and then preparing to get pregnant before trying again.

The eldest sister of the Miao family plans to import a pair of shoes for the Ding family.

"Zhang Nan, can Zhiqin return in the middle of the first lunar month?"

"It should be too busy, at least until Labor Day."

Across the small river in the village, an old man on the other side of the river greeted Zhang Haonan. He was Zhang Zhiqin's father. Actually, he was not that old and his hair was still black, which was different from the other people of the Gang generation.

While chewing sugarcane, the sugarcane residue is caught with the hands. The fish and meat smoked with the sugarcane residue are more fragrant than those smoked with wood. Therefore, men and women who have a lot of free time and have a coal stove will smoke a little to satisfy their hunger.

This is not a local practice in Shacheng, but something the older generation learned from their "cousins" in Jiangyou when they went there to buy bamboo for rafting.

At that time, life in Jiangyou Province was much better than in Shacheng, so many of the things planted in Shacheng's private plots were different from those in surrounding areas in the early years. For example, sugarcane was transplanted from Jiangyou Province.

Later, reed millet or sweet millet once again became the mainstream food for satisfying cravings in private plots. In some places, it was called sweet stalks or sweet sorghum.

Although they both eat sugarcane, the local historical customs are actually completely different from those in the more prosperous Yushan and Chengjiang in Dongxiang and Xixiang.

“It takes so long.”

"The task is heavy now, and I don't trust others."

Hearing this, Zhang Zhiqin's father's chest straightened up. He had originally just asked his son when he would be back after the Chinese New Year, but when he heard that he was a "pillar of the family", he immediately changed his tone, "My career is more important. I can't let it delay your business..."

At this moment, the conversation with Zhang Haonan is no longer important.

This old man with black hair now just wants to show off in front of his father-in-law.

I was too lazy to move on the first day of the New Year. Tomorrow is the second day, so it would be a good time to show off and visit relatives.

Zhong Xiaohui's family is now very obedient. Zhang Zhiqin has made clear arrangements for his brother-in-law. His father-in-law has also completely changed his temperament and has achieved internal "harmony and unity" with the Zhong family. In order to further consolidate the hard-earned "social status", Old Man Zhong also communicated with Zhang Zhiqin's father and planned to let one of his nieces be Fan Zhenhua's wife.

It just so happens that he is from the second village of my home, which is very suitable.

It is not known whether it will succeed or not, but Lao Fan asked Ding Yong for advice several times, and he was too embarrassed to ask Zhang Haonan.

But for the time being, the woman from Wujia Village 2 still likes Fan Zhenhua very much.

Although she is not young anymore, she is well educated and a college student. Her niece is also Zhang Haonan's concubine, which is a good relationship.

When Zhong Xiaohui's mother helped to mediate, she made a very apt analogy, saying that although Fan Zhenhua was not the father-in-law of the "Queen's family", he was at least from the "Imperial Concubine's family".

The woman agreed with that.

I also heard that "Fan Guozhang" had no other bad habits except smoking two packs of cigarettes, which made me even more satisfied.

There are very few old workshop directors who have been promoted without any rumors like Fan Zhenhua.

If the top beam is crooked, the bottom beams will be crooked too. The big boss likes this. No matter how upright his subordinates are, there are still many bees and butterflies that flock to them.

It is quite rare for Lao Fan to have a good reputation among middle-level management.

In the past two years, there have been many "Shashi" managements that have fallen into the hands of women. Fan Zhenhua is really as steady as an old dog. Various commercial bribes have failed. Even Wu Taian finds it unbelievable.

Now that Fan Susu is about to give birth, Fan Zhenhua's status will be further improved as soon as the baby is born.

Therefore, it is not only Zhong Xiaohui's family who have their eyes on Fan Zhenhua, a man in his forties. As the saying goes, "A man is in his prime at 41," but one has to consider his ability.

Fan Zhenhua is now in charge of the Ganhe branch of "Wujia Agricultural Machinery" and is one of the 18 factory directors and deputy directors. Because he is a decent person, leaving aside the special factor of Fan Susu, there are at least 800 female workers who like him.

He has a house, a car, and savings, and he has no parents and no children. It may be a bit of an exaggeration to call him a "diamond bachelor", but he is indeed a "golden bachelor".

The Fan family, which was once in a very bad state, became friendly and respectful to each other because of Fan Zhenhua.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, Fan Zhenhua did not dare to stay at home, but went shopping with his co-workers.

Because some enthusiastic female workers who stayed in Shacheng were thinking of asking him to go to Shacheng's pedestrian street on New Year's Day to see the excitement.

Also because of the planning of Zhong Xiaohui's mother's family, there is a "Second Boss Lady Faction" here in "My Family Agricultural Machinery", which has a greater influence mainly among the workers, team leaders, and workshop directors.

In addition, Fan Susu herself is also an administrative secretary, and she is not just a pretty face but has real talent and skills. This leads to a lot of talk among the employees, who are very optimistic about the rise of the "Fan Guifei Group".

Only people in the family knew the truth, that Fan Susu was just a maid that came with Zhao Feiyan as a dowry.

But this still can't stop the gossip of various big bosses.

Even the charlatans would invite the workers to dinner in order to gain experience, and then supplement their own rhetoric based on what happened on that date.

"Dad, big goldfish~~"

Zhang Ling rode on the fish's neck and saw the fish lying motionless at the bottom of the clear river. She immediately became excited.

It was a big golden carp that Zhang Haonan threw in two years ago.

People in the village will throw the fish back after fishing them. The river is shallow in winter, so even with a thin layer of ice, you can still see it.

It is more eye-catching than those red carps, and it sparkles brightly under the midday sun.

"Come on~~"

Then I heard Zhang Jin's voice coming from behind. She was sitting in an electric toy car, which was a new product line developed by "Zijin Technology", specializing in children's toys for export.

Even if some of them are exported and sold domestically, they cost more than 10,000 yuan each, which is much more expensive than electric bicycles.

There were more than a dozen little kids in the group, and old man Ding Yong followed them on a low-speed tricycle, fearing that his kids would be "injured".

The small square was soon filled with all kinds of "luxury cars". Zhao Feiyan was wearing a large flowered jacket from Northeast China, but the fabric was different. It cost a lot of money to dye the cashmere she was wearing into a large flowered jacket.

Her pocket was big enough to hold three pounds of peanuts and melon seeds, and she just kept eating them along the way.

Another fun thing on the first day of the Lunar New Year is "running for wealth", which is called "saying lucky money" in some places. People go from house to house in groups and pretend to be begging, which is actually to ask for good luck.

Today Zhang Jin took a group of kindergarten children and headed east along the village river.

It is magnificent and spectacular.

The harvest was very considerable. Everyone knew that she was Zhang Haonan's eldest daughter, so precious things such as chocolate and hazelnuts were loaded into the truck bed.

What Zhao Feiyan ate were the melon seeds and peanuts that her daughter begged for.

After running for a whole morning, the battery was all used up. I went home to charge it and then came to the small square to "divide the loot".

Zhang Haonan was walking his dog on the side of the road. His daughter glanced at him, waved, and then continued her work of "sitting in a row and sharing fruits".

Continuing to stroll around, Zhang Haocheng was supposed to go out on the first day of the new year, but ended up staying at home waiting for guests. Like Fan Zhenhua, he is now also a "bachelor", and his rank is probably above gold but below diamond.

The reason why the market is like this is that the innocent people have no idea that this guy is not innocent at all.

Although he told his parents that he would not look for a new one for the time being, he still couldn't change his mind. He still hasn't revealed what he did with Zhang Haonan and Zhang Haodong, but his grandfather Zhang Gangpeng noticed it.

But after all, it is a major event in his grandson's life, so it is not convenient for him to say too much. Zhang Haocheng also has parents, so he would not express his opinion unless he was asked.

Of course, seeing Zhang Haonan, Zhang Gangpeng still came over and whispered, "Zhang Nan, what Cheng Cheng is doing now...do you think you should get married soon?"

"It's better to get married early and keep two young prostitutes at home."

"..."

Zhang Haonan's frankness made Zhang Gangpeng stunned. He was not as ruthless as Zhang Gangqian and the others, and was more honest. But after all, he was old and had seen a lot following Zhang Haonan's old grandfather.

"So is the menu you are eating now effective?"

"..."

Zhang Haonan was quite speechless, "Grandpa, what I eat is not special, I eat the same thing as my brothers..."

"Then others say that you will have to add three doubles and six numbers to your household registration this year? Is that true or not?"

"That's true..."

"The spirit?"

"..."

This kind of mystical question really annoyed Zhang Haonan, and he couldn't give an answer. God knows why. Maybe it has something to do with his rebirth?
It's really weird that they are twins now.

After fooling Zhang Gangpeng away, Zhang Haonan suddenly didn't want to take a walk anymore, so he took his daughter and the dog back and lay down.

"You're turning back now?"

Zhao Dai, who was playing games, was a little surprised to see Zhang Haonan go upstairs.

"If someone comes to talk to you after every two steps, why are you still walking?"

Zhang Ling ran to the pile of toys and started playing. Zhang Long, who was watching cartoons, also climbed down from the sofa and went over to play with her.

Fan Susu, who was pregnant, was peeling an orange and asked, "Brother-in-law, why did you ask Xiao Jiang to go to Mayor Wei to wish him a happy new year so early in the morning?"

"What are you doing at home if you don't want to pay New Year's greetings?"

Zhang Haonan sat down on the ground, his back against the sofa, and crossed his legs, peeling oranges for the three pregnant women.

"Brother-in-law, you are such a fool. What's wrong with Xiao Jiang? Is it wrong for her to like you?"

With orange slices stuffed in her mouth, Fan Susu seemed to be in a good mood while eating, as if she had eaten something sweet.

"No feelings, I just treat her as my sister."

"Take your time."

"Tsk, seeing that you have a big belly, I won't bother with you."

Upon hearing this, Fan Susu immediately covered her mouth and laughed. She naturally knew that Zhang Haonan really treated Su Jiang as his sister. If he really had the feeling, he would have stripped her naked and had sex with her to his heart's content. There was no way he would have fooled around with Hua Ruirui first.

He continued to eat the orange peeled by Zhang Haonan and didn't watch TV seriously. Instead, he was thinking about Su Jiang's matter.

This orange is actually not a sugar orange, it is not that sweet. It is just an ordinary Kecheng orange, also known as Lugan. However, it is a special variety. It is very crisp and juicy, and the granular texture of the flesh is very obvious.

The only drawback is that it is not sweet enough. "Dao Ji" has now received funding from the Liangzhe Academy of Agricultural Sciences to help cultivate it. If it is made a little sweeter, it will definitely sell well.

It is difficult to describe an orange as crisp, but it has a special texture that is a little bit sandy when eaten. This was the main fruit in last year's "Sandy" New Year's goods.

"Banana Apple" or yellow apple is the second most common. The high-yield "Red Fuji" is used to make apple crisps, which are all collected from Haidai Province.

This year, this type of dried fruits and vegetables are hot-selling items in Europe and the United States in the spring. Many supermarket chains have commissioned OEM contracts. "Wal-Mart" also cooperated with "Shashi Group" for the first time to OEM "Wal-Mart's" own products, one in bag packaging and the other in cans.

If Zhang Haonan had not obtained mature packaging technology in Northeast China, this cooperation would not have been possible. At least an additional packaging inspection step would have been required.

Because of the orders for apple crisps, the price of fresh apples has risen slightly this year. "Banana apples" have never sold well. If they are not crispy enough, they cannot survive in the Yangtze River Delta. That kind of apple with a nice texture is a very niche variety.

However, prices have generally gone up this year. Because of the aggressive expansion of the "Shashi Group", fruit farmers in Haidai Province did not have a good year, but it was still a bumper year, mainly because they had no debts, although the inspection requirements of the "Shashi Group" were very abnormal.

In short, it's a love-hate relationship, but during the first month of the year, small fruit farmers and farmers in natural villages and established villages who have just come into contact with the "Rural Supply and Marketing Cooperatives" have heard a lot of information and are considering whether to grow apples or contract an orchard next year.

However, the local "Rural Supply and Marketing Cooperative" has no useful information at all. During the spring plowing period, it is all in the agricultural guidance stage. Even if there are orders, rice, flour, grain, oil, and vegetables are given priority, and fruits have to be put aside.

Ordinary farmers were naturally worried because they couldn't get any news, but they were also jealous of others making money. As a result, on the first day of the Lunar New Year, the people under the Yishui Municipal Government had a good year, but the leadership team of the municipal government slept on New Year's Eve and went to the homes of many scholars from the Academy of Agricultural Sciences to pay New Year's greetings the next day.

I visited both retired and non-retired people.

There is no way. The weight of starting a project and not starting a project is different within the "Shashi System".

For example, a research project on soybeans was launched. The three expert groups in Haidai Province came from two colleges and a research institution. The three projects of high yield, high oil content and disease resistance were promoted simultaneously, and the start-up funds were 600,000 yuan.

Usually, the start-up capital of key universities is 200,000 to 300,000 yuan, and the more impressive ones are 500,000 yuan. If the school is to focus on training young scholars, the amount may be as high as 50,000 to 80,000 yuan.

In lower-level graduate schools, it is possible to publish a research topic for only a few thousand dollars.

One advantage of cooperating with local colleges and universities in the funding budget of the "Shashi System" is that it is not difficult to start a project and pass the review. However, if the mid-term review of the project fails, it will affect the in-depth cooperation between the "Shashi System" and the college.

Compared with the millions, tens of millions or even hundreds of millions in the future, the management team of the colleges and universities attaches great importance to it. It's not that they are aiming for the hundreds of thousands without nepotism, but as long as the school supervisors at the department level and above still have the need for advancement, they have to pick and choose behind closed doors to see who is the real deal and who is a slacker.

Money is important. Who doesn’t like millions, tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions of dollars in funding?
But the results are more important, which means it is feasible for a vice president to jump out of the school circle and become a deputy county magistrate or even a higher-level administrative bureaucrat.

In addition, the technical bureaucrats who were brought up by the "Shashi system" had terrible achievements, ranging from Niu Taiyuan in the capital to Wang Xi in Andong County. The rest, such as Liu Chen, He Chengdu, Xu Zhentao, etc., were all well-known figures.

Anyone who is a little bit informed can see from this that the spring of technocrats has basically arrived.

After all, paying taxes to the country and maintaining employment for the country are obvious to all.

Therefore, as long as the leadership of the Yishui Municipal Government is not stupid, they should take advantage of the fact that all the experts are celebrating the New Year at home and show their sincerity. If they wait until after the New Year when everyone is busy to make trouble, I am afraid the atmosphere will not be as harmonious as it is now.

Because it has been obstructing the "Golden Dragon Fish" for half a year, the tyranny of the "Sand Food Group" has been revealed. Now it is building and acquiring various grain and oil factories everywhere, and it is obvious that it also wants to launch its own product line.

The Yishui Municipal Government does not have much confidence in the planting and sales of apples, but is very confident in rapeseed oil and soybean oil.

In addition, the "Fen Yi Ru Shu" expansion project has already had a negotiation basis. The future vision for the canal is to either use the Grand Canal as a detour or to directly build an inland port terminal as a supplement to the Yuzhou Port Group.

As long as it can be transported by ship, given the current arable land area in Yishui and the quality of traditional oil crops, the cost can compete with edible oil from Bohai and northern Hebei provinces.

It is not without confidence that we can compete in the market with the "Shashi system" without relying on the unified price coordination of the state.

Although the term of office is approaching, a month or so of hard work, as long as the intention is confirmed, can change the fate of a large number of people.

In terms of overall thinking, the leadership team of the Yishui Municipal Government is also correct. The principle of "no industry, no prosperity" is definitely correct, but it cannot be rushed; the priority of work is "no agriculture, no stability."

Only when the rural market is stabilized can the surplus rural labor force be put into the labor market.

The "Rural Supply and Marketing Cooperative" has played a very important role. At least in connecting with the market in the Yangtze River Delta, it is much better than local cadres thinking about it on the spur of the moment, and it will not produce too many bad results if people just walk away.

Until the fifth day of the New Year when the God of Wealth is welcomed, the already lively home suddenly becomes bustling.

There were countless people who came to Zhang Haonan’s house to help arrange the tribute fruits and offerings.

The huge courtyard was made to look like a temple fair, filled with huge crowds of people.

Fortunately, Zhang Haonan had his wives go to "My Family Garden" in advance, otherwise they would have to say hello hundreds of times if they wanted to go out for a stroll.

Looking at the people everywhere from the yard to the main road, Zhang Haonan was speechless for a moment.

I don’t even know who the “tribute fruit” should be given to.

After all, when he went out to greet people, there were cheers all around, asking Boss Zhang to bless them with a prosperous business and a prosperous New Year...
