"Is it Qin Xiaochuan?"

Deng Xiaoyi hurriedly picked up the phone, and before she could speak, an eager voice floated into her ears, she thought it was her business phone, she was obviously stunned for a moment, and asked casually: "Who are you? What are you looking for Xiaochuan?"

"My name is Li Da. Did Qin Xiaochuan use this landline to make a call just now?"

"Yes, that's right. Wait a minute. Deng Xiaoyi understood, turned around and shouted to Qin Xiaochuan, who was holding a bundle of money and was still stunned in the injection room: "Xiaochuan, a boss named Li Da called you." ”

As soon as Qin Xiaochuan heard that it was Li Da's call, he hurriedly rushed out, stuffed the money into Deng Xiaoyi's hand, then took the phone, looked into the microphone, and said tremblingly: "I'm Qin Xiaochuan, are you Li Da's boss?"

"I'm Li Da. Hearing Qin Xiaochuan's voice, Li Da breathed a sigh of relief and explained: "Qin Xiaochuan, I'm sorry, my wife answered the phone just now, she didn't know about my purchase of corn, how offended ha." ”

Qin Xiaochuan smiled and said, "It's okay. Boss Li, my corn is about more than 800 catties ripe, will you come and harvest it today?"

"Come, come right away. Li Da agreed without hesitation.

After Qin Xiaochuan told Li Da the specific address, he easily put down the microphone.

The drought in the cornfield has been alleviated, and Lin Yan seems to have nothing to do, and the whole person is loose, frowning and thinking about things while doing housework.

The loan shark of 50,000 yuan was like a big mountain, which weighed her breathlessly.

At the beginning, before borrowing usury, she had found all the people she should be looking for, and she had thought of all the ways she should have thought of, but she was really desperate, otherwise she would not have borrowed usury.

Now, her only hope is pinned on her brother-in-law Qin Xiaochuan. A child who is not yet seventeen years old should be studying in peace, but now he has to take on the heavy responsibility of supporting this family, Lin Yan feels sad and guilty when he thinks of this.

Qin Xiaochuan ran home excitedly, saw his sister-in-law Lin Yan washing clothes, and said excitedly: "Sister-in-law, Boss Li has promised to come to harvest corn, I will go to the field to break corn." ”

He had to break the cobs from the field before Li Da arrived, and carry them to the head of the village, because the simple road in the village was only built there.

Lin Yan was stunned for a moment, stopped what she was doing, raised her good-looking face, and looked at her brother-in-law Qin Xiaochuan in surprise, "The corn is not ripe, where are you going to break the corn?"

Qin Xiaochuan said with a smile: "I went to the field in the morning to take a look, and found that some corn was ripe again. ”

"Xiao Chuan, what you said is true?" Lin Yan's eyes widened.

"Sister-in-law, when did I lie to you?" Qin Xiaochuan grinned, carrying a bucket and about to go out.

"Xiaochuan, wait for me!" Lin Yan got up and shook the water droplets on her hand, "I'll go with you to break corn." ”

Qin Xiaochuan dissuaded her and said, "Sister-in-law, you better not go." These days, you carry water to water the ground, and when you come back, you have to do housework, and you are tired enough, so just take a good rest at home, I can do it alone. ”

"I'm not tired, let's go!" Lin Yan said very resolutely, but there was a warm current in her heart, everything she did, this little uncle saw it in his eyes, and it felt very warm.

Qin Xiaochuan shook his head helplessly and followed Lin Yan out the door.

The corn seedlings that had withered were rejuvenated overnight after being moistened by the rain.

However, in the midst of the verdant greenery, there was a small area where the corn seedlings had turned yellow, and the corn cobs growing on the stalks were plump and large, which was very eye-catching.

There really is corn ripening again!

Lin Yan was so shocked that she couldn't speak for a long time, her eyes widened, and her face was incredible.

"Sister-in-law, I didn't lie to you!" Qin Xiaochuan said with a smile.

Lin Yan came back to her senses and remembered that Qin Xiaochuan had said something like "find a way to make the corn ripen as soon as possible" yesterday, and she understood a little in her heart, it is impossible for the corn to mature early for no reason, this matter must have been made up by the little uncle.

"Xiaochuan, you tell your sister-in-law, how did you do it?"

Qin Xiaochuan knew that this matter must be to give his sister-in-law a reasonable explanation, and he had already figured out how to fool her.

He broke off a corn cob and threw it into the bucket, and said casually: "Sister-in-law, I read this method from a book, saying that there is a super fertilizer that can make crops ripen quickly. When I had no choice, I rushed to the doctor, but I didn't expect it to be. ”

Perhaps he didn't believe it, or maybe it was out of surprise, Lin Yan stared at Qin Xiaochuan with burning eyes and asked, "What book?" Take it out and let your sister-in-law take a look at it." ”

In fact, Qin Xiaochuan was also telling the truth, and he didn't have the intention of fooling Lin Yan, the book he said was "Five Elements Divine Formula", but this book was imprinted in his mind, and he couldn't take it out for Lin Yan to see.

"I saw it a long time ago, and at the time I thought it was a fool, and I didn't care, but now I don't know where it went. Qin Xiaochuan replied freely, and immediately changed the topic, "Sister-in-law, do you know how much our corn cob sells for a catty?"

Sure enough, Lin Yan was attracted by the topic behind Qin Xiaochuan, looked at the little uncle's mysterious expression, and smiled, "Isn't the purchase price of corn in the market eight cents?" However, I remember you said yesterday that someone bought our family's corn cob at a high price, I guess at most five yuan." ”

"Three yuan a catty!" Qin Xiaochuan stretched out three fingers to Lin Yan and smiled proudly, "Hehe, sister-in-law, at this price, corn cobs don't need to be air-dried." ”

"What?" Lin Yan was shocked.

The corn purchased in the market needs to be air-dried or sun-dried first, and then threshed to remove the corn cob. After this whole process, the weight is only about 70% of the original weight.

In this way, the purchase price of corn is only eight cents a pound. Qin Xiaochuan said that his corn cob does not need to be dried or threshed, and it can be sold for three yuan.

How could this not shock Lin Yan?

The corn on the cob is full, it looks good, it tastes good, and the price is reasonable, but the price is ridiculously high!

Although the price was incredible, seeing Qin Xiaochuan's smug look, she believed that the little uncle would not lie to her.

"Sister-in-law, hurry up, the grain collection truck is coming soon!"

There were only more than 100 corns, and the two of them were full of energy, and they all broke it in less than half an hour. Then the two of them picked up all the corn cobs to the head of the village after a few trips back and forth.

Li Da arrived as scheduled in a pickup truck.

"Little brother, it's really hard to find you here, and it's really hard to walk. Li Da jumped out of the car, and the first thing he said when he saw Qin Xiaochuan was to complain, looking tired.

"Boss Li, you have worked hard. Qin Xiaochuan looked at him with apologetic eyes, with a smile on his face.

No matter what Li Da says, Qin Xiaochuan won't mind, as long as others come. Moreover, what Li Da said is also true, the road leading to the county seat has always been potholed, usually dusty, and muddy when it rains.
