My 1995 Small Farm

  Chapter 481 The boy picking up the car

   Let alone Wang Jusheng, Chen Ling couldn't have imagined this situation.

  I am honest and honest, staying at home and not showing off.

  This... how come he looks like a big star all of a sudden, this is really life full of surprises, surprises without surprises.

   Fortunately, people nowadays just want to see the excitement, to see what he looks like, a young boy who has become famous in the past two years.

  It is completely different from the groupies of later generations.

   Not as crazy as groupies.

  In addition, the leaders of the village also knew him, so they shouted on the loudspeaker, and the crowd dispersed quickly.

  Chen Ling was ashamed, and really didn't want to be in the limelight.

   Secretly warned myself to be more low-key in the future.

  The weather today is fine.

  After leaving the township government and leaving Changle Township, there were not many pedestrians on the road.

  Riding a bicycle, riding a donkey, driving a cart...

   Scattered, you can meet one at a distance, and pass by Chen Ling's tractor.

  Mostly carry goods.

   It is past the busy season of farming.

  It is no longer necessary to guard the three-acre land all day long.

  Everyone is either making a small living, or finding a place to work for others, all for the sake of making money.

  Although many people have gone out to work this year, there are not a few people who are far away from their hometowns and are reluctant to go far.

  So in order to find something that can be done, the small business that makes money at the moment is running around.

   "Dad! Daddy!"

  It was getting farther and farther away from Changle Township, the commercial road was getting closer, and when the mountain road gradually became wider, Ruirui shouted while pulling his clothes.

   "What's wrong? Pee or stinky?"

   "That, that..."

  Rui Rui's chubby little hand pointed to the right.

"What?"

  Chen Ling thought that this stinky boy had found some other mountain bird and small beast, and he was going to chase after it.

   As a result, I turned my head to the back of the car, and just as I turned around, I heard someone shouting:

   "Er Heizi, what are you doing, stealing someone's car?"

   It turned out to be a big boy like a black skinny monkey, riding an old 28 big stick, holding the tractor in one hand and the handlebar of the bicycle in the other hand, walking forward with the tractor, hitchhiking.

   "Er Heizi, let go quickly."

  The other one was also riding a bicycle, but he was obviously a few years older, about the same age as Chen Ling.

  Both of them have two big bamboo baskets and a big net bag at the back of their cars.

   "Huh? Aren't you that who? From Si Nier's family?"

  Chen Ling glanced at the young man who was about the same age as himself, and felt that his face was very familiar. On second thought, this seemed to be the son-in-law of Sinier's family.

   "Uh, Fu, Uncle Fugui? It's you."

  The young man in Yangtougou also recognized Chen Ling instantly, and was immediately a little embarrassed.

   Then he yelled at the middle-aged man: "Er Heizi, let go of your mother's hand, this is Chen Wangzhuang's rich and noble uncle, if you dare to steal his car, be careful and I will beat you when you go back."

   "Brother, after riding so far, I'm so tired."

  The half-grown man who looked like a black and thin monkey suddenly groaned, and at the same time boldly looked at Chen Ling: "Well, uncle, are you from my sister-in-law's side? Can I pick up a section of the car? This section of the road is quite wide."

   "Hehe, ok, you can pick up a section, it's okay, I'll drive slower."

   Chen Ling nodded with a smile.

  Half-sized boy is really young, he was overjoyed when he heard the words, and shouted happily: "Brother, did you see that? This uncle asked me to pick up the car."

  Picking up cars means picking up goods on trains and cars.

  Picking up a car means climbing, and picking up a pickpocket means stealing.

  The car pick-up that is common in the countryside has no such meaning of stealing.

   It’s like hitchhiking along the way.

   Very common in this year and month.

  Even in the county, it is common in the city.

   Those who don’t have the money to buy a ticket to go home have to pick up buses, tractors, and large trucks. There are many people there.

  Some drivers will yell when they see this.

  But some drivers will not stop even if they know about it, they will acquiesce and take a ride with good intentions.

   And those who have more intentions will let people into the car, fearing that it will be dangerous to pick up the car outside.

  Chen Ling did this before.

  So he saw the behavior of this half-baby.

   Not only was there no anger and resistance, but my heart was full of memories.

  This year has the so-called "barbarism and backwardness" of this year, but it also has its unique innocence.

  Happiness seems very simple.

   "Huh? Where's the person?"

  Chen Ling was in a daze, and found that the two of them were gone behind him.

   Wouldn't something happen just after letting them pick up the car?

   It shouldn't be.

  The road is so wide.

  My own speed is not fast, how can something happen if I am steady?

   I was about to stop the tractor to have a look.

  Seeing Si Nier's son-in-law and half-children pedaling vigorously to follow.

  The half-sized man who looked like a thin black monkey took out two peaches out of nowhere, and made a gesture to hand them over, "Uncle, then, here you are, for the baby to eat."

   Then he said with a chuckle while talking: "At noon, I stole some peaches from someone else's peach orchard on the way, and they have been washed. These peaches are very sweet."

  Young people have no scheming, everything is written on their faces, even expressing gratitude is so simple and direct.

  Chen Ling would not refute his kindness, so he took it with his hand.

   Let his son hold one, and when he got it in his hand, he held the steering wheel with one hand, and gnawed on the peach with one hand.

  Beside, Si Nier's son-in-law was very helpless, and continued to remind him endlessly: "I told you that this is Uncle Chen Wangzhuang..."

   "Brother, what are you mumbling about?"

  The half-sized boy was holding the tractor with one hand, facing the mountain wind, turned around and smiled very chicly: "You also come to pick up the car together, it's exciting, and it's cool."

  At this time, Chen Ling finished eating the peaches in two mouthfuls, spat out the peach pits, and turned to them and said, "I pulled a cart today, and the back of the cart was piled high and full, otherwise I could just load you."

   "Wow, Uncle, you are so kind."

  The performance of the cousins ​​made Si Nier's son-in-law even more helpless: "...This is Uncle Fugui, the uncle Fugui from your sister-in-law's family, our own family, do you think it's okay?"

  He repeated it several times.

   Er Heizi finally came to his senses.

   paused, as if thinking about something.

  Then raised his head suddenly, and exclaimed: "Uncle Fugui from my sister-in-law's family? He is Chen Fugui from Chenwangzhuang? Why are you so young?"

  Then his eyes changed from simple kindness and enthusiasm to eager admiration.

   Wow, wow, yelled: "Uncle, I heard that you beat a tiger a while ago, didn't you?"

  Good guy, I started mentioning this matter again in one mouthful.

   It can be seen that Wu Song's fight against the tiger is more popular than anything else.

  If Wu Song really plays Wu Song and is on TV, then don’t go home at all.

  It's so boring to let people watch like monkeys when you go home.

  However, the enthusiastic admiration of the young people still made Chen Ling feel a little hot, and he was willing to say a few more words.

   Have a brief chat.

  Si Nier's son-in-law also gradually let go, and his serious expression turned into a smiling face.

  He also admired Chen Ling at the beginning, but since he knew the relationship between Chen Ling and the old man Wang Lixian's family, in fact, this admiration has become more of awe.

   Even in the past half a year, I haven't seen it a few times.

  Wang Lixian always saw Chen Ling when he was busy with the farm or had something to do.

   But it didn't hinder his respect for Chen Ling.

  That's why this meeting is taken seriously, and I don't want my little cousin to jump around in front of others.

   "What are you brothers doing? Yangtougou is not close here!"

   "We went to collect chickens on the mountain over there in Fenglei Town."

   "Accept the chicken?"

   "Yes, my brother and I collected the chickens and sold them on the same day. After collecting them, we went to the city by boat and sold them to the chicken shops in the city."

   "Oh? This deal sounds right!"

  Chen Ling frowned, thinking that apart from yellow beef, roast chicken is a major specialty of the local area.

  The yellow beef is gone in later generations, but the roast chicken is still there, and it has even been featured in food documentaries.

   It has a history of thousands of years.

   At this time, to be honest, the local roast chicken is more prosperous than later generations.

  The reason is also simple.

  Later generations are developing rapidly, with a variety of cuisines, and there are too many things for people to choose from.

  Now, the delicacy that many locals can think of at once is roast chicken.

   After earning money, I look forward to a roast chicken to satisfy my hunger.

   Can it not be booming?

"On the mountain in Fenglei Town, the chickens are very cheap, and the eggs are also cheap. Let me tell you the truth, uncle, once, my brother went around a few villages and collected a large basket of eggs, but accidentally fell down the mountain. I fell and broke half of the basket, but just like that, I still made money by dragging it to the city."

   Er Heizi laughed.

  Si Nier's son-in-law also said: "When I came home, my uncle's family had a lot of eggs. They fried them and steamed them. I made half of the pot and ate them for several meals."

   After all, even broken eggs are reluctant to throw away.

  The broken ones, the ones that didn’t leak out too much, the ones that can be taken back.

   All broken, baked and eaten on the spot.

   Nothing is wasted.

   "Eggs are not easy to handle now, but chickens are okay, and there is money to be made."

   "That's true, you are very good at collecting chickens. The roast chicken in our city is famous for its deliciousness, and the chickens collected from the mountains are also stable."

   "Wow, Uncle, you also think this business is OK, then we will have more confidence, and we will have to work hard in the future."

  In their minds, and in the rumors of the past two years, Chen Ling was the one who would make the most money.

  With his approval, their confidence grew even stronger.

   It's like being beaten with chicken blood.

   Traveling such a long distance, having a companion to talk on the road can also relieve the boredom and dullness of the journey.

  However, the two of them didn't take Chen Ling's car all the way to Fenglei Town. They stopped at the village below Fenglei Town, and started to turn from the mountain road into a small road, and went uphill and downhill to collect chickens in the village.

   Actually chatting with them all the way, Chen Ling also had some ideas about how to deal with his chickens and ducks in the future.

   But after careful consideration and careful measurement, for the time being, the chickens, ducks and geese in my family mainly rely on selling eggs. Although the quality of the meat is also high, there is no need to worry too much about selling it in large quantities.

   Just keep this matter in mind for the time being.

   At the same time, I also feel a little bit emotional. It is really not easy for people to make some money at this time.

  Like the former second uncle Wang Qingzhong, he also followed the pack horse team from village to village, trafficked and resold grain, how many roads he had to go around in a day, and how many mountains he had to climb, sometimes they couldn’t count it themselves.

  Si Nier’s son-in-law is also like this. After collecting chickens in the village, he will go to the city immediately when he has collected enough chickens.

   One collection and one sale, this trip will take at least three days to go back and forth.

certainly.

   Hard work returns to hard work, and it is faster than farming to make money.

  Due to underdeveloped information technology, information exchange is infrequent.

  Prices are very opaque.

  The price difference of goods can be widened.

  Things deep in the mountains are especially cheap, and once they are resold in the city, they can be easily doubled.

   Just like what Er Heizi said, his cousin smashed half a basket of eggs, and made a small fortune in the city.

so…

  If you work harder, you will work harder. If you can make money, you will be satisfied, willing, and even full of energy. You will not feel tired even if you work several times a month.

   "If I don't have a cave, and I don't have a dream to know my past life, will I be like this?"

  Looking at his son who was holding a small kettle and muttering non-stop, Chen Ling smiled.

  Why think so much, it's fine now.
