Chapter 133 We Have Insiders

When I have something to do, I feel that the days go by so fast. It took us three days to open up four acres of land for my eldest brother-in-law’s family. During these three days, everyone also summed up the experience of opening up wasteland. Obviously improved.

It took us a few more days to open up 8 mu of land. Afraid of delaying the planting time, we continued to open up wasteland here, and my uncle took the rest of the people to plant corn on the open land, sweet potatoes in the greenhouse, Potatoes have just germinated, so if you want to pick seedlings and plant them, you have to wait for a few days.

I promised the children that I would buy some chickens and ducklings for them, so some afternoons, Jiang Zhi and I rode a tricycle out of the village towards the county town, and entered the space on the way. Take the small animals in the house home.

In this way, we moved hundreds of chickens, ducklings, and geese back to our home in Tashan Village in batches. , Auntie came to us.

It turned out that due to the snowstorm in the winter in Tashan Village, most people slaughtered the chickens and ducks that were wasting food at home. They all thought that after the spring, the weather would be better, and when there was food outside and no need to feed the food, they would catch some chickens and raise them. Everyone has the same idea. There are only a few old hens in the village, and these few old hens incubate eggs without rest all day, and the chicks hatched are not enough for the villagers.

So many villagers saw that our family bought chickens and ducklings from the county, and wanted to come to our house to ask where they bought these poultry, and they also wanted to buy some.My aunt was asked by them, so she came to ask as a representative.

After hearing what my aunt said, I secretly said something dangerous.Fortunately, we actually went to the county before and found a place that sold newly hatched poultry.

The family is a poultry farm, and most of the poultry are slaughtered in winter because there is not enough feed to feed them.In the beginning of spring, when the weather got warmer, they saw business opportunities, so they used machines to hatch chickens and ducklings.However, due to limited time and limited machines, the first batch of chicks has just been hatched, and the number is limited.

Scarcity is the most expensive thing, and its sales price is also relatively expensive. A chicken sells 2 catties of rice, a duckling sells 3 catties of rice, and a goose sells 5 catties of rice.If you go to buy it at this price, you may not be able to buy it. When we asked, the staff said that there is no more, and they are all sold out. If you want to buy it, wait for the next batch to hatch.

So my aunt asked me where I bought these poultry, and I didn't feel embarrassed, and told her the address directly.I told my aunt about the basic situation again, and asked her if she wanted these poultry. If she wanted it, we would ask her to get some of them for her.The aunt slapped her thigh and said, that's a good thing, she also wants to raise some chickens and ducks, and then the aunt happily went back to pass the news to those who were still waiting for the news.

The next day, we brought back another batch of chickens and ducks, and took out 10 chickens, ducks and geese from them, and sent them to my aunt.The little uncle said that we can't take it for nothing, and insisted on giving us food.Jiang Zhi was so angry that he said that if he gave food, he would sever ties with him. I also said beside him that our family can afford such a small amount of food. If we give something to my aunt and we still charge money, then we will all be successful. What's up.Seeing that we were all angry, my aunt hurriedly pushed my uncle aside and said, "This is my nephew and his wife. Why don't I accept something if you give me something? Go away, you bastard. My nephew is like your younger brother, who recognizes money but not people." Finally, these chickens, ducks and geese settled down in my aunt's house.

That night, my aunt went to our house to look for us again, and asked if we could still buy chickens, and if we could buy some chickens, could we buy some back.It turned out that a few people in the village went to the farm in the county after they got the address from us today, wanting to buy some poultry. The result was the same as what we said. They said that all the newly hatched chickens were sold out. , It is necessary to take the food in advance to reserve one and a half months later, because the next batch of chicks has already been pre-ordered.

After they came back dejectedly, they told the news to the villagers, but the villagers didn't believe it, saying that Lao Jiang's family brought back a box of chickens today, and sent many chickens to his aunt's house. Look at it.

When they went to my aunt's house to ask, my aunt bragged to us, saying that we got these through internal connections. Isn't it related now, can we buy such a commodity that is in short supply?
As a result, as soon as people heard that we were related and could buy chickens, they begged my aunt one after another, asking my aunt to talk about it, let us get some more of these poultry, even if it is more expensive, it doesn't matter.

My aunt was a little embarrassed when she told us that she knew it was not easy for us to beg for help once, but she was a little too loud. Folks, so it can only come to cause us trouble.

I laughed when I heard Puchi, and I was very happy that we could become the object of her bragging. In the past few years of getting along, I really treat her as our relatives.

"Okay, auntie, don't be embarrassed. Jiang Zhi knows the people inside the farm. They have reserved a batch of poultry just for these people who have connections. That's why we ordinary people go to buy it and it will be gone so soon. You ask everyone to count, whoever wants it and how much it is, we go to the county to get it back once, so it won’t be good to ask for help every time in the future.” I comforted my aunt who was a little embarrassed, and said.

"Then I'll let them report the number when I go back now, just this time, we don't care about it in the future." After the auntie finished speaking, she hurriedly raised her legs and was about to leave.

I hurriedly grabbed her and said, "Auntie, don't worry, you made an agreement with them when you counted, we will buy chickens, ducks and geese for everyone, just to help everyone, so we will accept whatever price they sell. What is the price, we will not sit on the ground and raise the price, so everyone can rest assured. Also, we just buy it, but we don’t guarantee the quality. Don’t let them die within a few days after taking it back. If they come to us, we are kind enough to help you. But don’t make yourself fishy in the end.”

I'm really afraid that some unreasonable people will come to our house to cause trouble in the future. We are so busy with the work in the field every day, how can we have the time to deal with these messy things.

"Okay, I got it. I have to make this clear to them. There is no reason for us to help you for nothing, and let them rely on you. Don't worry, my auntie understands this matter. Those rascals in the village Stand aside every time, we don't serve people like that." After making promises to us, my aunt left.

Early the next morning, my aunt came again and told us the quantity of poultry.We went out on a tricycle that afternoon, and when we got back, we told my aunt to come to my house to pick up chickens and ducks at night.

In the evening, a 100-watt light bulb was lit in our yard, and half of the village came to our house to fetch chickens. Every family didn’t want many chickens. After all, it’s really expensive to buy these now. At this time, it was the time when there were no pick-ups, so everyone didn’t buy much. A family ordered up to 10 chickens and 5 ducklings. Very few people asked for geese, because geese were too edible and it cost too much food to raise them. .

When everyone came, we would go to the box to pick out the amount we wanted with my aunt. We said, first come, first, and then there is nothing to pick. After they picked out what they wanted, they put the food they brought For us, Jiang Zhi didn't look at it and didn't weigh it. He just put the bag in the yard. He said that this matter should be based on conscience.

Later, some people who didn’t intend to raise chickens or ducks saw how energetic the chickens brought back by our family were, and saw that everyone was rushing to get them, and some people’s hearts were alive. These chicks are pretty spirited."

"It's okay, isn't it just for convenience and peace of mind when you spend money to find someone. They also selected them when they brought them to us." Jiang Zhi said without humility.

When people heard that we bought these chickens and ducks with our own money, they were a little embarrassed to continue.However, some people couldn't bear the joy and praise of other people who picked the satisfied chick, and asked Jiang Zhi flatteringly: "Big brother, look, my family didn't know when you counted last night, but I know today." It's a bit late, let's see when you're going to cook chickens and ducks again, and give us some."

After I heard it, I secretly complained in my heart. I don’t know when the statistics are. If I don’t know, why did I come to my house today? They started to think it was expensive or didn’t trust us, so they didn’t buy it. At this time, everyone bought it. The quality Not bad, I just want to join in the fun, really.

After Jiang Zhi heard this, he looked at the person and didn't know him, so he showed apology and said: "Oh, I'm really sorry, everyone was in a hurry yesterday, and because of our limited ability, there was no village-wide notification. .A few well-connected companies asked each other, and the person we were looking for brought the chicken back today. Didn’t expect that so many people would need us to buy it?

People in our village should also know that my ability is limited, and the people I am looking for are not major cadres, so it is already the limit to be able to produce so much. Now I have no choice but to ask for it again. The benefit fee paid by people is quite a lot. If you are not in a hurry, you should go to book it. There is no need to spend so much benefit fee for these few days in advance. It is not worth it, don’t you think? "

When that person heard Jiang Zhi say that if he wanted to buy another chicken, he would have to bear the bonus fee himself, he flinched. After all, the price of chickens is not cheap anymore. How many eggs does a chicken have to lay to get the chicken money?

Jiang Zhi didn't care about what those people who wanted to pick up ready-made chickens said, walked to my aunt, and chatted with the people who came to pick chickens with my aunt. This night, our family has received countless thanks, and I have gained countless villagers. Our goodwill, seeing the bags placed on the ground in the yard, is also a big harvest.
