Rebirth to create happiness

Chapter 16 18 Cooperation
After Cui Jinfeng disappeared in a flash, Zhao Zhizhi took out 50 yuan from his pocket and handed it to Wang Tiezhu.Wang Tiezhu stood in embarrassment, without reaching out to pick it up.

When Grandma Zhizhi saw her, she hurriedly made a rescue and said, "Tie Zhu, the corn in your field is almost broken. The child was doing business for the first time last time. He didn't know what to do, so he didn't dare to give a high price. Now the corn is sold. It's almost there, the child has earned some money. I feel uncomfortable, and I want to make up for you, don't feel too little."

"No, no, no!" Wang Tiezhu waved his hands repeatedly and said, "Zhizhi's [-] was already too much last time, so I can't ask for any more money."

"Uncle Tie Zhu, I didn't recognize you last time, and I hope you don't take offense!" Zhao Zhizhi said sincerely, "We really made money from the corn this time, so you can keep it!" This Wang Tiezhu is really an honest man, he will not accept money delivered to his door.It may also be that most people in this era are simple!Zhizhi sighed.

"Zhizhi! When you gave me the money last time, I thought it was too much. The corn in my field was sold for up to 70 yuan in previous years after it matured. The hard work of dry threshing should not be worth 70 yuan!" Wang Tiezhu was a little embarrassed when he thought about it, he touched his head and continued: "It's just that I took your 100 yuan last time because I was waiting for money at home. Yuan. My child, I really can’t ask for any more money today, so just put it away! I already charged a high price when I sold the corn to you, and how much money you make after buying the corn has nothing to do with me.”

Zhao Zhizhi glanced at her grandmother for help, this Wang Tiezhu was really stubborn, she didn't know what to do.

Grandma Zhizhi saw that Wang Tiezhu was determined not to accept the 50 yuan, so she had to help Zhizhi out: "Zhizhi, Uncle Tiezhu is a real person, so you can keep this money! Remember if there is something good next time, remember Your Uncle Tie Zhu!"

Zhao Zhizhi heard her grandmother's words, and a thought flashed in her mind.She plans to engage in the production of corn oil in the future. With her small body and going to school, she must find someone she can trust to cooperate.This Wang Tiezhu has been in contact with him twice, and he seems to be a good character. He also runs an oil mill at home, so he should have some experience, and he should be trustworthy to cooperate with.

Thinking of this, Zhao Zhizhi didn't go around in circles, and asked directly: "Uncle Tie Zhu, has your oil mill squeezed corn oil?
"Corn oil?" Wang Tiezhu felt very strange. His family's oil mill was passed down from his grandfather. It used to be used by the village when eating big pot rice, and the village returned it to him after the land was divided into households.Wang Tiezhu's family also has decades of experience in oil extraction. Folks from all over the world also like to send their own crops to their homes for oil extraction. They have extracted rapeseed oil, peanut oil, and tea tree seed oil. I have never heard of it. Corn can also be used for oil extraction.It's a pity that the big guys have some money in the past few years, and they like to buy some lard and cook it by themselves, so the business of extracting oil is not good.

"Yes, it's corn oil." Zhao Zhizhi said seriously: "One of our classmates is from the provincial capital. He said that he had eaten corn oil at home. It was very fragrant and clear, and its nutritional value was particularly high. Western countries are now admiring it. Eat corn oil!" Zhao Zhizhi was afraid that Wang Tiezhu would not believe her, so she had to drag Liao Qing out again as a shield, plus the Chinese people are a little bit foreign, and it would be more acceptable to the Chinese people to make an unfounded favorite of foreigners.

"Zhizhi, is that the classmate who told you about selling green corn last time?" Grandma Zhizhi said pleasantly, "The children in the provincial capital are very good and understand everything. Tie Zhu, if your oil mill can Squeezing corn oil, the prospect is..." Grandma Zhizhi was so excited that she didn't know how to describe it.Guangyushan County harvests at least hundreds of thousands of catties of corn a year. In recent years, the big guys don’t like to eat cornmeal, and they almost use it to feed pigs. If corn can be squeezed into oil, at least you don’t have to worry about raw materials, right?

Wang Tiezhu was not dazzled by the good news. Although corn oil is good, what's the use if he doesn't know how to squeeze it?

"Uncle Tie Zhu, can you tell me how the oil in your oil press is extracted?" Zhao Zhizhi wanted to know the difference between the traditional oil extraction method and the cold leaching method mentioned by Penguin. , can't you save the cost of buying machines?
The penguin in his head wanted to jump out and knock her on the head when he heard Zhao Zhizhi's stingy thoughts.Its owner is good at everything, but he is too stingy, not to mention the hundreds of dollars he earned from selling corn last week, and the money penguins made from buying lottery tickets for her is still in her bag!No matter what stage of social development, money begets money is the last word. Letting money grow moldy in passbooks is too wasteful, okay?

Zhao Zhizhi didn't know about Penguin's complaints, so naturally she wouldn't be angry.She thought that the penguin would obediently stop using mind reading on her after listening to her words.It may be that Zhao Zhizhi in the previous life was too embarrassed, so he has an extremely stubborn hobby for money, and only likes to earn money in his pocket, it is best not to take it out.Zhao Zhizhi's idea of ​​a small farmer hides the penguin in a corner angrily and draws a circle. How did it find such an unreliable owner?
When Zhao Zhizhi asked about the oil press Wang Tiezhu was most proud of, Wang Tiezhu grinned happily.It just so happened that there was nothing wrong with the oil mill, only the fifty catties of rapeseed sent by the family for him to process.Taking advantage of the time when the rapeseed was steamed in the steamer, Wang Tiezhu enthusiastically took Zhao Zhizhi to visit.

The ancient method of oil extraction basically relies on the power of manpower and water flow.Only after Zhao Zhizhi visited did he know why the oil press was built by the river.The crushing and beating machines in the oil mill are basically driven by the power of water flow.

The wisdom of the ancients is really infinite!Zhao Zhizhi was amazed, no wonder there were already oil presses in ancient times when there was no electricity.

After watching the whole process of oil extraction in the oil mill, Zhizhi was a little excited and a little disappointed.Wang Tiezhu's skills can definitely extract new corn oil, but the tools in the oil mill are too simple, and the ancient oil extraction method is not suitable for extracting corn oil.The ancient method of oil extraction generally uses heating, crushing, and pressing to produce oil, while corn oil is fermented and belongs to cold extraction.It seems that she still has to spend money to buy a more modern machine.

"Uncle Tie Zhu, my classmate said that he wants to find someone to cooperate in extracting corn oil. I wonder if you are interested?" Zhao Zhizhi dragged Liao Qing out again as an excuse.

"Really?" Wang Tiezhu was very happy in his heart, but when he thought that corn oil is a new thing, there must be some secret recipe or something. He has nothing but a dilapidated oil press handed down from his ancestors. Will Zhizhi's classmates ask him to cooperate? ?

"Xiaozhi, this is a big deal, why don't you tell your classmates first." Grandma Zhizhi disagreed with Zhizhi making such a casual promise.

"Yes, yes!" Wang Tiezhu also echoed Grandma Zhizhi's statement: "Dajiao is right, you see my oil press is old, and your uncle Tiezhu is incompetent, so he can't take it out at all. Money comes to renovate, did your classmate talk about the cooperation method?" Wang Tiezhu asked later, feeling a little reconciled.

"Uncle Tie Zhu, my classmate said that he came up with the method and machine of oil extraction, and asked me to find someone familiar with the production and management to help him produce and manage it. He doesn't have time himself, and he only cares about sales and year-end dividends, nothing else. It doesn't matter."

"Really?" Wang Tiezhu's eyes lit up, it was really hard to find such a talkative partner.Although he is a little older, it is still hard to see the difficulties at home.His grandson has good academic performance. If the family is rich, he might be able to enter university and jump out of the farm!
Zhao Zhizhi saw that Wang Tiezhu was moved, so she didn't say anything else. Anyway, there might not be a ready-made machine waiting for her to buy, and she still had to find someone to make a set of machines. The time was a bit tight.

Zhao Zhizhi thought for a while and then explained to Wang Tiezhu: "Uncle Tiezhu, don't tell me about the corn oil extraction. We will bring the machine over later and tell you the method of oil extraction. Then we will talk about how to extract the corn oil. problem of division."

"All right! All right!" Wang Tiezhu was so excited, he wished he could finish the work at hand and go up the mountain to tell the old woman lying there that the Wang family had a good time to meet a nobleman.

Zhao Zhizhi and her grandmother left Wang Tiezhu's oil mill and returned home, and Grandma Zhizhi was still a little angry.

"Grandmother! What's the matter with you?" Zhizhi vaguely guessed why grandma was angry, and hurriedly asked.

"You girl! You're so daring." Grandma Zhizhi scolded Zhizhi: "I'll pull your clothes from behind and ask you to tell me. Don't tell me if you are gone, you are not at all. listen."

"Grandma, I know you love me the most. But I can really decide this matter, and I won't lie." Zhao Zhizhi was a little moved, her grandmother is such a real person, she was afraid that she would agree to Wang Tiezhu's matter It can't be done, although Wang Tiezhu will be fine, but it's not easy to leave an impression of talking but not doing, isn't it?Hey. . .It's all to blame for this small body, you can't make people believe in everything you do!

"Grandmother, my grandfather used to be a brewer. I wonder if you can make wine?" Zhizhi remembered something and asked hastily.

"Yes!" Grandma Zhizhi thought of Grandpa Zhizhi, and said with a smile: "Your grandpa wanted to teach me how to make wine, but I didn't want to learn it, because the smell of wine was too strong. Fortunately, I learned it, otherwise. ..." Grandma Zhizhi stopped talking.

In those difficult times, Grandma Zhizhi was able to bring up her daughter and send her to school, relying on Grandpa Zhizhi's brewing skills.Because of her low profile, Grandma Zhizhi never makes wine in front of people, she only secretly makes some wine yeast and sells it to acquaintances behind her back.Distiller's yeast is an indispensable material for wine making, and it is the secret of every wine maker. Most people can't make it by themselves.If the koji is good, the wine produced will be more mellow, but if the koji is not good, sometimes a tank of wine will be ruined.Grandma Zhizhi improved her family's life by relying on her skill in making distiller's yeast.

"That's great." Zhao Zhizhi didn't expect her grandma to really know how to make wine. In this way, the method of extracting corn oil has added a layer of secrecy. Zhizhi said happily: "Grandma, there is a way to extract corn oil A process needs to be fermented, and you have to help me check it out!"

"You child, why are you so worried about other people's affairs?" Grandma Zhizhi was dissatisfied.

"Hey...hey...Zhao Zhizhi laughed dryly a few times, and finally confessed a part: "Mother, this oil mill is actually what I want to build. My classmate is just helping to provide information, and agreed to lend me money by the way." . "Zhao Zhizhi still lied, otherwise she would not be able to tell the source of the information and funds! The penguin is her trump card, and it cannot be exposed at any time.

"What?" Grandma Zhizhi was stunned: "How much should it cost? Zhizhi, you can't mess around!"

"Grandmother, don't worry!" Zhao Zhizhi encouraged her grandma: "Didn't you see that the corn worth tens of dollars was sold for hundreds of dollars in the hands of your granddaughter? This time, the corn oil will do!"

When talking about the green corn, Grandma Zhizhi was speechless.Maybe my granddaughter is really a very smart person!
