Chapter 25: Spring Breeze and Rain (1)

Dachengzi's father, Wang Shichuan, bought the first means of transportation in his life, which was a two-wheeled frame car.

In the autumn of that year, when the land was handed over, he and his two nephews, Wang Jiajun and Wang Jiabing, let go of their hands and feet to start a timber trafficking business.

It turned out that the two-day trip to carry the tree was too hard and tiring to earn a few hard-earned money.

Wang Shichuan simply raised the strength of his whole family, went to the county to buy back tires, and asked the old carpenter to tailor a wide wooden car.

This kind of transportation costing about 300 yuan, in the countryside in 1979, can be regarded as a large piece that pressed all the net worth into it.

Many of the farmers and entrepreneurs of that year started from pulling a cart and embarked on the golden road to make a fortune.

Sun Shaoan in "Ordinary World" relied on a mule cart to earn the first pot of gold in his life.

After having a rack car, the timber business of the Wang family's uncle and nephew has been changed from one to another, and the transportation capacity of dozens of sticks and more than a dozen square cedars per trip has also made money as fast as a stream.

Therefore, the greatest historical significance of the household responsibility system is that it has liberated the productive forces.

Peasant uncles like Wang Shichuan no longer have to go to work every day to work in inefficient farmland.

In the off-season, they have plenty of time and personal freedom to go out to work and do business, engage in special breeding at home, or regain various ancestral old crafts.

Each showed its ability to make a fortune, and began to become the main theme of rural life during this period.

If a farmer's family does not have children who go out to work, nor does it engage in any side jobs, and only lives on a few acres of land, it is still difficult to survive in that era when agricultural taxes are very heavy.

And with the full opening of society, the daily expenses of rural life are also increasing.

Weddings and funerals, personal exchanges, and more pursuits in material and cultural life all require a certain income base as a guarantee.

According to the recollections of some veteran peasants, two or three years after the land was handed over to households, the gap between the rich and the poor in the rural areas began to appear.

The days of some farmers are not as good as in the era of Dahulong and self-cultivation.

The success of a business often depends on three factors: capital, supply and buyers.

The phenomenon of a lack of supply and capital input due to a broad market demand is a seller's market and capital shortage as defined in economics.

The supply of goods is seriously insufficient, and buyers can only buy goods by ticket, relationship, and plan, and there is no room for bargaining, and such a market is a seller's market.

The era when people can get rich as long as they have savings, can raise funds, get bank loans, dare to invest and start a business, and set up a stall is the era of capital shortage.

In the early days of reform and opening up, China's society had both a seller's market environment and a shortage of capital.

At that time, the success rate of grassroots entrepreneurs could reach 99%, and examples of illiterate farmers like Wang Shichuan who made a fortune abounded.

At that time, although it was still very poor, there was almost nothing in the market.

Chemical fertilizers and pesticides, steel and cement, household appliances, foreign exchange books, are all in demand.

At that time, the manufacturer basically did not have the concept of marketing, and the core of enterprise management was how to organize production and expand production capacity.

Today, in the 21 st century, the smoke cloud of capital shortage has long since dissipated, and China has entered an era of comprehensive capital surplus.

The rate of return on capital cannot outperform bank wealth management, and the risk of personal venture capital has increased unprecedentedly.

The wealthy class is reluctant to invest in the real economy when they buy real estate and cabbage.

In some industries, the return on investment cannot even cope with inflation.

All these are concrete manifestations of excess capital.

Real estate bubbles, stock market bubbles, commodity bubbles, currency idling, etc., will all consume in vain the precious wealth accumulated by generations of hard work.

Therefore, there is a great "One Belt, One Road" strategy, which escorts the export of private capital, and introduces China's excess capital and production capacity to other developing countries to achieve win-win cooperation.

Through the "supply side" reform, we will vigorously cultivate and develop new basic economies such as 5G, artificial intelligence, and new energy, so as to create new social demand, break through the bottleneck of the buyer's market, and maintain the basic plate of employment and development in our society.

In the winter of 1979, Wang Shichuan's uncle and nephew's timber business was going smoothly, precisely because they had the three elements of capital, supply and buyers.

Raising a huge amount of 300 yuan to invest in a rack car for transporting goods, other villagers did not have the strength and courage, and they did it.

In the past few years, when they secretly went into the mountains to carry trees, they formed a deep friendship with the mountain people, so that their timber supply was fully guaranteed.

There were no less than 100 carpenters with whom they traded, and the trade in the timber strip market was booming, and the fir wood they brought back was not worried.

Therefore, when the other old and young masters of the oil mill production team were still intoxicated with the free carnival of land to households, sleeping lazily in the middle of winter, watching rural dramas day and night, or visiting relatives and friends with nothing to do, Wang Shichuan's uncle and nephew had completed their primitive accumulation.

At the end of the year, the three uncles and nephews each received a dividend of 2,000 yuan.

In the era when the production team earned work points, the work of a strong laborer for fifteen years was discounted, and there was not so much!

Mother Wei Lan held this huge amount of money in her hand and panicked for a while.

"Shichuan, all this money is coming from the right way, right?"

"Every penny is smashed by sweat, you can spend it with confidence!

Wang Shichuan happily took off his hard padded jacket and picked up the Wang child in the cradle.

Liuchong in the hinterland of Dabie Mountain connects the fifty-mile rugged mountain road outside the mountain, and the manpower-pulled pallet truck walks on it, and it is also a peeling skin!

His cold jacket has been soaked with sweat countless times.

"1,000 yuan a month, 12,000 yuan a year, how can you spend so much money? Shichuan, there won't be any more exercise, right?"

Wei Lan had never seen so much money, and she didn't have the concept of saving money in bank and credit unions, so she could only count the stack of banknotes repeatedly, racking her brains to plan how to use this huge amount of money and where to hide it. The pillows are still underneath the wooden cabinets, or sewn into the futons.

It's already winter vacation, and Wang Jiacheng is raiding his winter vacation homework at this time.

The production team of the trough workshop next door will sing "River God" for three days and three nights after the new year, and he has already made an appointment with Gangzi and Goudan, and they will go over to play together when the time comes.

The lines of the flower drum opera "River God" these babies couldn't understand a word, they were interested in the liveliness of the crowd and the various snacks around the stage.

Sugarcane, melon seeds, peanut candy, popcorn dumplings, brown sugar baked cakes, these rural snacks that have not been seen for many years, like the long-extinct flower drum opera, are like new shoots that break through the soil after the spring rains, and once again appear in people's eyes with a festive face.

On the stage, the 60-year-old male Dan October Hong was complaining crookedly, and his mother Wei Lan and the grandmothers and aunts of the Wang family were drunk and obsessed.

Dachengzi will always squat in front of Liu Mazi's baked cake stall like a greedy cat, watching the whole process of a pot of burnt baked cakes from the pot to the pot and then to the sell-out.

Five cents a piece, no one has calculated how many pieces of baked cakes Liu Mazi and his daughter sold in a day and a night, it should be a very staggering number.

Although his cake stall in the theater is inconspicuous, he may be able to earn a "10,000 yuan household" in less than two years.

"The insight of the woman's family, hehe. This amount of money to buy a tractor will be gone! I will have to earn at least three years to tear down our adobe house and build a big house with four brick walls and a courtyard wall!"

Wang Shichuan took the new padded jacket handed by his daughter-in-law and put it on his body, and happily turned behind his eldest son to watch him do his homework, while planning the use of the money.

After his calculations, the money really couldn't help but be spent.

"It's not against the policy to build a tiled house like the public house now, right?" Wei Lan asked her husband happily, still a little skeptical.

Women are born to count money, and she has counted the two thousand ten, five, and two dollar bills three or four times.

"No, our country's policy in the future is to let the common people make a fortune and live a good life! In Feixi, houses are being renovated everywhere this year, and the 100 cedar trees we put back a few days ago were all bought by a family in Guanting!"

"It seems that the world has really changed! Our family is happy this year, and there is finally hope for the future!"

Mother Wei Lan sighed with tears in her eyes, and another happy event she said was the family's major event of the "rightist" rehabilitation of Chengzi's father.

"Chengzi, how many points did you score in the final exam?"

Wang Shichuan no longer greeted Wei Lan and cared about his son's final grades.

"85 in Chinese and 80 in math, all passed!"

Dachengzi confidently handed the report card to his father, passed all two courses, and the level of the middle and upper reaches of the class has far exceeded the self-expectations of this elementary school scumbag.

"Yes, yes, my son has opened up! Hahaha!"

After listening to his son's achievements, Wang Shichuan was really happier than earning a huge sum of 2,000 yuan.

He deeply knows that he can't go far in his life without culture.

Only by studying hard can the children of peasant families finally change their fate.

"Dad, as you said, there are rewards for passing both subjects!"

Dachengzi stared directly at his mother Wei Lan's money bag, missing a good opportunity to ask for rewards today, and it would be difficult to ask her mother for banknotes.

"There is a reward, of course there is a reward! Is ten dollars enough?"

Dad Wang Shichuan smiled and freed his hand, picked up two five-yuan bills from his mother's money pile, and threw them to Da'er.

"Shichuan, do you spoon it? Give the child so much money? Chengzi quickly bring it!

Wei Lan looked at her husband in astonishment, she didn't expect him to be so generous with his son's reward.

Daddy's reward has already arrived, how can he take it back!

Dachengzi ignored his mother's angry shouts and rushed out of the door with the banknotes.

Two days later, the big drama of the production team of the trough workshop opened, Liu Mazi's baked cake stall, ten yuan can buy 200 baked cakes, that is a real hunger!
