Rebirth 1980: Marrying my sister’s best friend at the beginning

Chapter 64 Tang Xue’s request (please subscribe!)

Li Yi didn't know what happened in the county at all. After all, he only knew a rough idea of ​​Li Gang's affairs, but not the details. Naturally, he didn't expect that Li Gang would be in danger today.

After he and Tang Xue arrived at the back mountain, the children were already waiting at the reservoir dam.

Seeing the two coming, the children immediately gathered around and chirped to report today's results to Li Yi.

And Li Yi did not hesitate to praise, constantly praising the children for their hard work and ability.

Every child was very happy after receiving Li Yi's praise, and looked at him with eyes full of admiration!
Seeing Li Yi earnestly praising each child, being gentle and patient, Tang Xue suddenly felt that he had a special temperament.

Although she couldn't describe this kind of temperament, she felt really charming.

For a moment, Tang Xue couldn't help but be fascinated by it!

Li Yi didn't realize that Tang Xue was secretly observing him. At this time, he was busy instructing the children to clean up these wild beasts.

Since he came back early today and the sun has not set yet, Li Yi is not in a hurry to go back.

He asked the children to sort mushrooms and mountain products on the spot, and then made a preliminary selection.

Don't take away the ones that are too young or too old. Let the children take them back to make soups and stews.

Only those of the right size will be put into baskets and then sent to a state-run hotel the next day.

At seven o'clock in the evening, the sun finally went down, and all the mountain goods were processed and loaded into the car.

Later, Li Yi called the children together and gave them yesterday's reward.

"Dongzi, 5 yuan!"

"Xiao Jing, 3 yuan!"

"Stones, five!"

"Erya, 1 yuan!"

"Goudan, 1 yuan."

After distributing everyone's reward, Li Yi took Tang Xue and drove home.

On the way back, Tang Xue looked at Li Yi from time to time, as if she had something to say, but she seemed a little embarrassed.

"What's wrong, you're making me feel a little weird!" Li Yi asked with a smile.

Tang Xue thought for a while and said: "There is something I want to ask you, but I don't know whether I should ask or not!"

"What are you talking about? You are my wife, what are you embarrassed about?"

"I want to ask you to help Xinyao and the others!" Tang Xue said.

"Zhang Xinyao, what's wrong with her?"

"Not only Xinyao, but also Feng Qian, Zhong Na and Sun Lu. You also know that we are the only female educated youths left in the entire educated youth camp. The rest have either been transferred back to the city or passed the exam. And All we can do now is stay here for as long as we can!”

Then Tang Xue continued: "Life in the educated youth spots is really hard, and the conditions of most of the families left behind are not very good, such as Xinyao's."

"The conditions in her family are not very good. Her father is disabled and her mother is also ill. Her grandmother still despises her mother and doesn't like her, so there has been no effort to let her return to the city, and she is still allowed to come back to the city from time to time. Mom wrote to her asking for money!”

Zhang Xinyao has been joining the Nianzishan brigade for more than four years. Li Yi also knows her character. Apart from her straight personality, this girl really has nothing to say in other aspects.

Especially in terms of how he behaves, he is far ahead of Xu Hong, whose character is well-known in the entire brigade.

The most important thing is that this girl really didn't say anything to her wife.

Not just now, after Tang Xue committed suicide in her previous life, Zhang Xinyao was one of the few educated youths who remembered her.

Every one or two years, she would go to Tang Xue's grave to send some flowers and burn some paper money.

If he could help this girl a little in this life, Li Yi would be very happy!

"How do you want me to help them?" Li Yi said.Tang Xue thought for a while and said: "If possible, I would like to ask you to take them to pick some mushrooms to earn some money and improve their lives!"

"I know this is very difficult for you. After all, you don't even bring those people in the village with you! But the educated youth sisters are really suffering. It can be said that everyone who remains is tightening their belts. Hold on for dear life.”

"You don't need to explain, I know!"

Then Li Yi said again: "It's not impossible to take them to collect mountain goods to make money, but I can't come forward to do this, you have to do it!"

"I?"

"Yes, do you know why I don't let the adults in the village go pick mushrooms?"

"do not know!"

"On the one hand, it's because the sales volume of state-owned restaurants is limited, and they won't be able to eat if there are too many local products. On the other hand, I don't want to complicate the minds of the villagers because of this!"

Tang Xue understood that the sales volume of state-owned restaurants was limited. After all, it was just a small county-level restaurant. A few hundred kilograms of mountain food a day was indeed the limit.

But she didn't understand what happened next.

Thinking of this, Tang Xue looked at Li Yi with big beautiful eyes, puzzled.

Li Yi immediately explained: "You have seen how much money you can make selling mountain goods. If I just go to the city to deliver goods, I can earn someone else's income for several years. Even the children in the village can make it in one day." They earn more than their parents working in the fields!"

"If I lead them to specialize in mountain goods business, how many people in the village will be willing to work in the fields?"

Tang Xue seemed to understand somewhat. If she thought about it carefully, she could understand Li Yi's difficulties.

After all, a work point is only about three cents at the moment. Even if you get 12 cents for a full work day, it is equivalent to earning 3 to 4 cents a day.

And the little kids in the village, even the youngest ones, can earn one dollar a day.

The older ones can even earn 5 yuan a day!

Who can't be envious?

Tang Xue believed that if Li Yi said that he was willing to lead the village members in the mountain goods business, everyone in the Nianzishan brigade would be willing to put down their hoes and work with him.

In this case, who will plant the crops in the fields?

If you do anything wrong, you will be charged with sabotaging production!

If we only bring a few people, those who want this but not that will definitely offend others!

Rather than do this, it would be better not to have any.

"I'm sorry, I didn't think about it that much. How about letting this matter go?" Tang Xueyao said.

Li Yi smiled and said: "Since you want to help those little sisters, that's okay, as long as I don't come forward in person, it will be fine!"

"What if you don't come forward?"

Li Yi immediately said: "This is easy to handle. You ask those female educated youths to hand over the picked mushrooms to you. I will help you transport the mushrooms to the city and sell them for money. You can just give them the money!"

"Is this any different from taking them with you?"

"Of course. First of all, I don't contact them directly, and I don't give them the money. I just sell some mushrooms to my wife!" Li Yi said.

Tang Xue's eyes lit up and she said happily: "Okay, I'll go back and talk to them!"

Tang Xue felt happy from the bottom of her heart that she could help Zhang Xinyao and the others.

Several of them were female educated youths who came to join the team from other places. When they arrived, they were all alone and helpless.

Over the years, we have taken care of each other and helped each other, and we have survived the most difficult days.

Therefore, after Tang Xue saw that Li Yi could indeed make money selling mountain goods, she wondered if she could also help them. Unexpectedly, Li Yi actually agreed!
