It was already dark, and the rice was brought to the table, that is, the rice brought by Wei Qianyang, and a few potatoes.

Looking at those potatoes, Guo Qianyang thought to himself that this village was said to be poor, but it was not complete, at least if there were potatoes to eat, he would not starve to death.

Compared with the villages in some places, it should be considered good, but if you eat this thing every day, you really can't stand it, and it is estimated that it is rare for people in this village to eat rice once.

In addition, although potatoes are delicious, they are still uncomfortable to eat if they lack oil and water.

"Eat, eat together. ”

"Hmm. The two girls were not polite, and picked up a bowl of rice in front of them and ate it.

In their cognition, since they are partners, they are a family, and there is nothing to be polite about.

Wei Qianyang finished eating, sat there and watched the last sun fall on the horizon, but there were too many emotions in his heart, from now on, his other life will be restarted.

What came to my ears was the sound of the mother and daughter taking a bath in the house, and this time the two girls were rarely washing seriously.

"I'll go to the village chief. After Wei Qianyang said to the house, he walked towards Zhou Zhongshi's house.

With things in mind, Wei Qianyang hoped that the backward situation here would be changed as soon as possible.

Zhou Zhongshi's home is some distance from where he lives, and it takes more than ten minutes to walk.

When Wei Qianyang came to the outside of the stone house in the middle of the week, he saw a big black dog rushing out from afar.

Fortunately, Zhou Zhongshi heard the movement at this time, walked out and called out to the black dog.

"Secretary Wei, why are you here?"

"Well, would like to know more about the situation. ”

In the courtyard, the two talked a lot about things in the village, and now Wei Qianyang can be regarded as having a clearer understanding of the situation in this village.

Poor, really too poor!

Although in later generations, Wei Qianyang also came here to help the poor, and he felt very poor at that time, but now it seems that the villagers at this time are even poorer.

"Village chief, I see rape planted in the village?"

"The requirements for the soil of this thing are not too high, it can be planted in the cracks of the stones, we can still grow it here, and the oil that everyone eats mainly depends on this. ”

Wei Qianyang nodded secretly, he just asked, he already knew about these things.

"Do you want to fry some potatoes or something?"

"Yes, if you want to eat it, I'll ask my family to fry some for you. ”

Wei Qianyang was not polite, and hurriedly said, "I really want to see your craftsmanship." ”

Zhou Zhongshi's cheeks twitched, this kind of oil can still be taken to the city for some money, and everyone is generally not willing to eat it.

However, if Wei Qianyang wants to eat today, he can only get some.

Soon, Zhou Zhongshi's wife was ready.

Looking at the bowl of fried potatoes that basically didn't put much oil, Wei Qianyang knew it in his heart.

"Village Chief Zhou, I have an idea this time, I need your support, you know, not far from our village, there is a small train station, every day after the car arrives here, I will add water or something. ”

"I know this, it's not far from us, there aren't many people getting on and off there, and I don't know what they think, so there's a small station there. ”

"My idea was to fry the potatoes and sell them. ”

"That's it, someone has done it, but it doesn't sell for much. Also, you will be caught for speculation. ”

"I've seen what you did, and I guess everyone is doing the same, right? As for the arrest, the country has gradually opened up, and you can do some small business, it's okay. ”

Zhou Zhongshi nodded and smiled, "Eat." ”

Wei Qianyang said: "The taste is not right, the oil is also less, you have to use a lot of oil to fry, at the same time, add some various ingredients, sour radish or something kimchi also add some, in short, it makes people want to eat it when they smell it, don't look at this thing, if you make it well, you can make money." ”

Zhou Zhongshi shook his head, sighed and said: "Anyway, I can't help it, I support whatever you want, as long as it doesn't break the law and people will be arrested." ”

"Now there is no oil and water in every house, as long as we use oil to fry, there will definitely be a market. ”

"Secretary Wei, we don't have any money!"

"Village Chief, I believe everyone knows that I am a public eater, and I have a monthly salary, so I plan to use my salary to buy some potatoes from each family and try it first. ”

"Aren't you afraid to arrest you as a speculator?" Zhou Zhongshi looked at Wei Qianyang in surprise, he felt that he couldn't understand the other party.

"Everyone is too poor, and we have to find a way to do it, and this time it's my personal behavior. If you want to catch me, it's just me, and it has nothing to do with everyone. ”

"No, you are thinking about the village, or the village is doing it together, if there is a problem, it is everyone's problem!" Zhou Zhongshi was a person who was dedicated to the public, thinking that Wei Qianyang was for the sake of the entire village, he still seriously expressed his opinion.

"You can't let everyone take out things and not get something in return, so let's do it, rapeseed oil is eight cents a pound, I will buy it for a pound, potatoes are now five cents a pound, I buy it with eight cents a pound, what do you think?"

Zhou Zhongshi shook his head and said: "No, you have lost too much, you are in order to let everyone have food, how can you lose like this, in the past, someone secretly came to buy, and the price was very low, and I didn't dare to sell it in the city."

I think so, you pay, everyone gets a benefit, no matter how much money you sell, it's yours, if you need someone, I'll find a few people to help you, and then you can give them some food. ”

"Village chief, I still have a puzzle, since rapeseed oil can be sold at such a high price, why don't there be more varieties in the village?"

"Although our village can grow live rapeseed, but the amount is still too small, besides, this price is the price sold by the public sales cooperative, they buy it from us at a discount, and it is only one or two cents a catty, and there are also regulations on planting rape, only if it does not affect grain planting, some can be planted. ”

Only then did Wei Qianyang come to his senses, thinking that there were really some practices in the era of planned economy that people couldn't understand, and that this kind of cash crop was strictly controlled, and he didn't know what the local leaders thought.

Fortunately, after understanding the situation, it is still no problem to get some rapeseed oil.

Zhou Zhongshi is even more of a character who does what he says, and immediately took Wei Qianyang to knock on the door and go in to purchase potatoes and rapeseed oil.

Wei Qianyang found a few more women and asked them to come to his residence tomorrow and teach them how to mix fried potatoes.

It was already late to finish these things, so Wei Qianyang walked towards where he lived.

Walking on the path, there are all kinds of insects and frogs in my ears, as well as the calls of some strange birds, and the whole mountain village is silent.

Wei Qianyang was also a person who had been helping the poor in the mountain village for a long time in his previous life, and he was not afraid of these things, but had a cordial feeling.

After a busy day, I was really tired, I walked into the dark room, thinking that the mother and daughter had already slept, and Wei Qianyang didn't want to wake them up, so he washed his face and feet casually in the courtyard under the moonlight, and entered the room where he lived.

With some light on the wall, seeing that the bedding had been laid on his bed, Wei Qianyang walked over to uncover the quilt, and without looking at the situation on the bed, he just lay down.
