To be precise, in 1906, Gaojiazhai, Nangong County, did not have an enterprise called "breeding farm".When Pang Zi went to look for Chen Tianhua, at the place collectively known as the "feeding farm", there was a sentence written on the hastily built wall, "The common people have the final say on the affairs of the common people." "Gaojiazhai Farmers Association".This is Chen Tianhua's handsome handwriting.

"Is the star station here?" Pang Zi shouted as soon as he entered the gate of the peasant association.

Jing Side was leading several members of the peasant association to tidy up the wheelbarrow and discuss the excavation work to be completed today.Seeing Pang Zi approaching, he hurriedly said, "Captain Pang, Mrs. Chen is in the earthworm field."

Although Fatty is known as the Great King to the outside world, in the peasant association, Pang Zi served as the captain of the "Transportation Brigade".In fact, it is the combination of the martial arts team and the caravan.The status is temporarily below the peasant association.Pang Zi was able to accept the "guidance" of the peasant association at least on the surface. Firstly, it was Chen Tianhua's hard work to persuade him. Second, one of the most important things Pang Zi learned from Uncle Jing Tingbin was that he wanted people to follow you. , you have to do things for others.

Although the status is under the so-called "peasant association", the peasant association is still an organization of the local people.Moreover, the farmers did not have the guts to really use the already famous "Popular King".

"I'll go and have a look now." Pang Zi said as he was about to leave, but suddenly stopped and smiled at a few people, "The chicken and duck taste really good, thanks to everyone."

"As long as it's delicious, as long as it's delicious." Jing Side also laughed.Seeing Pang Zi hurried to the earthworm field, Jing Side felt distressed when he thought of the large number of chickens, ducks and pigs that Pang Zi pulled away.Then Jing Side felt it was funny again, if someone had told Jing Side four months ago that he would live a brand new life with that barbarian Chen Tianhua, Jing Side would definitely fight that person desperately.

Nangong County has convenient transportation and a large number of merchants, so it is known as "Linqingshui Wharf, Nangong Dry Wharf".From the canal in Shandong to transport supplies to the Taihang Mountains, it is a major road to take Nangong County.Not to mention that in 1906, the Beijing-Hanzhou Railway was fully connected, and the convenient transportation drove the trade development of Nangong County.Especially the bazaar, which was only opened once every half a month, is now open every five days.

There are more and more commodities in the market, and there are more and more cheap gadgets, such as iron nails, iron wire, matches, and kerosene lamps.Everyone doesn't talk about it, but they all know psychologically that these gadgets are extremely convenient for life.

It is more than ten miles from Gaojiazhai to the market in Nangong County.

In the early morning of May, the market is lively. Folks from all over the world bring their own products, such as coarse cloth, some vegetables, and more chickens and ducks, or eggs and duck eggs carefully carried in baskets. .The street is a road that can accommodate five or six people walking side by side, and the people who buy and sell these poultry eggs basically gather together on the other side of the road.The early morning sun slanted down from among the branches and fell on the shoulders of Jing Side and several fellow villagers.Their women and children sat on the wheelbarrow, carefully carrying the baskets, while the chickens and ducks croaked occasionally at their feet.

Since the Beijing-Hanzhou Railway was completed, more and more business travelers traveled between the canal and the railway.The demand for poultry eggs has become greater, and even the scale of shops that specialize in purchasing poultry eggs has become much larger.In 1906, the livelihood of rural people was very simple. Chickens and ducks were raised at home, and some eggs and duck eggs were collected, or the chickens and ducks were raised and sold.As long as it is not a disaster year, the approximate price has a fixed number.A few eggs can be exchanged for a red-headed rope, a few chickens and ducks can be exchanged for a few feet of cloth, or some other daily necessities.Or simply how much it can be sold for, there is a definite number.Jing Side had already calculated how much the few chickens, ducks and twenty eggs he brought could be exchanged for.

"Eggs cost two coins, duck eggs cost two coins, and salted duck eggs cost three coins." The clerk reported a string of numbers.

"What?" Jing Side couldn't believe his ears.The good hopes suddenly sank, and he and several others were stunned.

"Isn't it still four pennies an egg in February?"

"Five Wen has also been sold, let alone Si Wen." The man replied.

"Then how could it be so cheap?" Jing Side couldn't help but asked scoldingly.

The man smiled and said, "Man, someone has been selling very well recently. Their products are really good, cheap, and in large quantities. These days, merchants who come here to buy their products can form a long queue. The price is as high as this point."

Jing Side drove the wheelbarrow early in the morning with his fellow countrymen.That's when things sell best.He worked hard all the way, but after hearing the news, he immediately relaxed. "Your price is too low. I will lose money if I sell it."

The man seemed to have seen people like Jing Side a lot, seeing Jing Side's gloomy and surprised expression, the man couldn't help persuading him, "Brother, I think you should sell it now. God has been saying, in a few days, should we simply stop accepting chickens, ducks and eggs from other houses?"

"You don't accept it? You don't accept it and I sell it on the street." Jing Side lost his temper.

Seeing that several people were in the same mood, the guy just smiled, but didn't say anything else.

But it's just an angry word that he wants to sell on the street, what Jing Side will do today has already been arranged.If you can't go back early, many things will be delayed.While he was hesitating, he saw several people coming over with their own poultry eggs.Got the same disappointing answer soon after.

"Let's go to Gaojiazhai to sell things." The next few people were obviously not from Gaojiazhai, they discussed and said.

"The market in Gaojiazhai is closed. I'm in Gaojiazhai." Jing Side couldn't help but said.

The few people were startled, but lost their minds. Finally, they couldn't help but pleaded with the waiter, "Brother, you don't have to earn so hard. The price is really too low. The eggs are still sold at four cents apiece."

"Yeah, you don't need this little money. We can't sell a few eggs, so you can help."

The guy smiled wryly, "That's not okay. This business is all for the boss to save money, so it's useless for you to tell me."

Everyone knew that the owner of the poultry and egg business was a penny-pinching rooster, and it was useless to ask him to negotiate the price.And the so-called going to other places to sell is just an angry talk.Not to mention whether you can go there, everyone is actually not familiar with the markets in other places.When I went to other markets, I didn't know if there were chickens and ducks.In fact they only have this store to sell it.

The joy of going out early in the morning dissipated, and the few people looked at the pitifully few copper coins in their hands, and didn't know what to say.While he was silent, he suddenly saw a large group of people coming from the side of the road.They used carts drawn by mules.Not long after, the car stopped in front of the store.There are layers of cages on the car, and chickens and ducks are bought inside.When the cages were being unloaded from the car, the chickens and ducks were crowing.For a while, it really boiled over.Not only chickens and ducks, but more than a dozen baskets of eggs were transported from the car.There are at least a thousand.

Jing Side and the others took these into their eyes, and only then did they realize that what the buddy said was not nonsense.Moreover, many of the duck eggs turned out to be cyan, and one of the duck eggs fell to the ground during the transportation, but it didn't break into pieces as expected, but rolled over with a gululu.This turned out to be salted duck eggs.

Jing Side brought his own child over this time, and when the child saw the duck egg coming straight towards him, he happily stepped forward to grab it and picked it up.The man who carried it was known to Jing Side, and he was also a fellow of Gaojiapu.When it was reduced to an acquaintance, the man smiled friendly and stopped asking about duck eggs.This clearly implied that the duck eggs were given to Jing Side.

Just not knowing what to say, Jing Side's baby had already started to peel the duck eggs.Bai Shengsheng's egg whites make people like it just by looking at them, "Mom, you eat first." The doll is very filial.Jing Side's wife laughed out loud when she heard what her son said.The mother gave way, and the mother took a small bite, revealing the greasy dark golden egg yolk inside.A faint fragrance followed.Jing Side only took one look, and he knew that the duck eggs of others were really much better than his own.No matter how my own duck eggs are marinated, it is impossible for them to be so oily.

It looks like this is something raised in Chen Tianhua's farm.It's not that Jing Side has never heard of Chen Tianhua and the others making that farm, but since he didn't come to provoke him, Jing Side is also unwilling to cause trouble for nothing.But he really didn't expect that some things are simply not impossible to encounter.

In the days that followed, fundamental changes took place in the egg market in Nangong County.In the face of the overwhelming product quality and overwhelming sales price of the farm, various merchants are not saturated with fixed purchases.Now that Chen Tianhua's farm can deliver a large amount of goods stably, it becomes unprofitable to buy them in small quantities.For those poultry eggs whose quality has obviously fallen, if you don’t buy them, you will save a lot of trouble in negotiating prices.

As a result, farmers in Nangong County discovered that their eggs, duck eggs, and chickens and ducks were not only far from being sold at the previous price, but even when they couldn't even be sold, the rules they had been able to maintain for generations collapsed in an instant. up.This kind of chaos lasted for less than a month, and the people have become angry.

Chen Tianhua still remembered the first time someone blocked the door, seven or eight farmers, including women among them, stood in front of the farm and started cursing.The content of the scolding is actually various, and it seems to have nothing to do with the farm.But every word has the same meaning, Chen Tianhua is rich and unkind.Don't let everyone have a good time.

Chen Tianhua is a real intellectual who is concerned about the country and the people, and a revolutionary who sincerely hopes that the people can live a better life.Therefore, Chen Tianhua really felt aggrieved when he was scolded for being rich and unkind.If it wasn't for the fact that Chen Ke had taught Chen Tianhua a lesson before he left, and had left a special manuscript.I'm afraid that Chen Tianhua might not be able to hold back his tears.
