Chapter 3 makes a small profit
At the time of breaking the old four, a leader stood up and said: "Everyone's enthusiasm is worth encouraging, but the direction is wrong. Why do you just stare at the small bottle and smash it, but let go of the big guy who has been pressing on everyone's heads all day?"
As soon as everyone saw this, not only did they do revolutionary work, but they could also move the bricks of the city to build houses, and under the general mobilization of the whole city, the city walls became many houses.
After the city wall was gone, the artificial boundary between the city and the countryside disappeared, and Chengguan Town came into being. It's just that the original city people still call this a suburban village, for fear of tarnishing their identity as city people.
Zhao Lin wanted to send the patients at home to the hospital, but it was not possible to rely on sweat and hard work, and this matter had to fall on the name of the suburbs and villages.
Although the suburbs and suburbs have urban hukou, there are still a considerable number of people in them who rely on farmland for food, which is also the reason why they are called villagers by real urban people. Fortunately, agricultural production here is under the nose of the government, so whatever you have is distributed to the fields here.
The fertilizer plant is still under construction and will not be put into operation until winter, and for some time before that, the entire region will not have enough fertilizer.
Although Zhao Lin's family does not have land, according to the county documents, he is qualified to buy fertilizer, or the kind that is on demand, and there is no limit.
There are not a few people who have the intention to make a fortune on it, but the power of speculation has not faded, and it is bold to secretly help relatives in the countryside buy a few bags, but it is really not daring to resell this.
Zhao Lin is naturally not afraid of putting this hat on his head.
"Dad, I want to pour some fertilizer and go to the countryside. Zhao Lin hesitated for a moment but brought this matter up.
Zhao Hongyang waved the notebook in his hand and said, "You are in charge of your business, don't delay the college entrance examination." If something happens, say I asked you to do it, and I don't have many days left anyway. ”
It feels so good to be protected.
Go out and turn right and turn a corner is the second confused house, bicycles are not a rare object, but there are not many to buy as decorations. Everyone has to go to work, and no one's bicycle is idle except for his house.
"Auntie, borrow me your bicycle. Zhao Lin was not polite when he entered the second confused house, and he opened his mouth to borrow a car. They are all old neighbors for decades, so there is no need to say much polite words, not to mention that Zhao Lin is still a "child" now.
The second confused mother is called Li Yingxia, one of the few housewives in this area, may be afraid of being gossiped about when she doesn't work at home, and she is willing to help anyone with anything, and she is a non-named director of the neighborhood committee.
"Okay, why didn't Xiao Linzi go to work today?" Li Yingxia was picking up the acacia flowers, and agreed without any hesitation.
It's called Xiaolinzi again, no one can bear Jin Yong's fans, what is the name of that tragic character, it's called Lin Pingzhi!
Zhao Lin pushed out the bicycle in the corner and said, "I have to go to my second uncle's house to do something, do you have anything you want me to help you carry it?"
Li Yingxia and Zhao Lin's mother are from the same village, they are about the same age, and they married in the city at the same time, and they went back to visit relatives during the New Year.
"Don't say that I really have something I want to send to my hometown, you wait for me. Li Yingxia shook the water in her hand and turned into the house.
The things that helped bring back to my hometown were nothing more than old clothes and shoes, and the factory director's family had no surplus food these days, so it would be considered the Gu family if they could help with a few pieces of clothing.
Walk thirty miles south along the moat, cross two bridges, get off the highway and walk fifteen miles on a country road, which is not too far if you have a car.
Zhao Lin, who has to carry a ton or two of things every day, is tortured by this road full of rural fun and wants to vomit, but you can imagine how boring those writers who describe rural wilderness are.
"Xiao Linzi, why are you here, look at this sweaty, wipe it quickly. The second uncle happened to come back from the field, and the two met before they entered the house.
Zhao Lin thanked the towel handed over by his second uncle, he had just come back from the field, and the towel he took off his shoulder could be wrung into the water.
In order to cover up the embarrassment and get down to business, Zhao Lin didn't take the towel and said directly, "Second uncle, is there a shortage of chemical fertilizer this year?"
The second uncle really forgot about the towel, wiped the sweat and threw it on his shoulders again, and said in a muffled voice, "Why is there no shortage, there is no shortage for a year." ”
Zhao Lin smiled, pushed the bicycle and followed the second uncle and said, "No, I didn't have chemical fertilizer before, so I didn't farm the land." ”
The second uncle didn't mean to joke at all, and was a little uneven, "How can it be the same, how can you not count how much grain you collect less than one acre of land, what do you know about those who eat commercial grain." ”
Those who eat commercial grain don't know how to do farm work, and there is no need to talk about this big hat, and it is the norm for urban and rural areas to hate each other.
"I have a place in my family, why don't I buy some for you?" Zhao Lin didn't know what to talk about, so he said his intention directly.
The second uncle was still silent, and walked for a while before asking, "No arrests in the city?"
Back then, the speculation was caught in the township, and now there is not even a single chicken farmer. Zhao Lin said that it seemed to be a good thing to help buy fertilizer, but in the eyes of the second uncle, it was a crime. Even if his family is short of chemical fertilizer, he can't let such a good nephew go down the wrong path.
The household responsibility contracting system has not yet been extended to this point, and it is not ordinarily difficult to explain what reform and opening up is, and as for the fact that the fertilizer plant can only be seen after a few months of operation, it is more like a fool's dream.
Zhao Lin hesitated for a moment and said, "My dad is dying, so I'll buy it in his name." It's all a death, it's better to make some money and send him to the hospital to see if he can be saved. ”
The second uncle's back was even hunched, one was distressed by his sister-in-law, and the other was distressed by his eldest nephew, and he walked a few hundred meters in a muffled voice, and neither of them spoke. When he was about to arrive at the door, the second uncle said, "In it, this matter is settled." ”
The two didn't enter the house, and went directly to Li Yingxia's mother's house.
In the village, Shen Li is the surname, the second uncle Shen Chong and the second confused uncle Li Meng grew up when they were young, and with these two people taking the lead, it became more than half of the matter.
It is himself who benefits from sprinkling fertilizer into the ground, and being caught is also the dead ghost man of the Shen family, such a good thing cannot be encountered every year.
The grandsons of the supply and marketing cooperatives will only pretend to be uncles, spend money to buy their things as if they are still asking them, go to say that there is no goods, and then go to them without goods, and it is not bad to disgust them this time.
Anything in the village can't be hidden, and whoever eats an egg in the morning can spread it all over the village before the evening, not to mention such a big event as someone pouring fertilizer into the village.
Afraid of being deceived? Even the village chief's family paid for four bags, and they couldn't catch up if they didn't pay for it!
Shen Chong and Li Meng, both of whom were about to become grandfathers, looked at the fertilizer money pre-collected on the table in the house, and their heels trembled. People with an income of less than 300 a year should be afraid of more than joy when they look at the small 8,000 yuan on the table.
If this is lost, the two families will not be able to calm the anger of the whole village, so when Zhao Lin came back, he became three people.
In '79, the system was reformed, and although it would take another four years for the dual-track system to be implemented, the prices of some commodities had already begun to differ.
At the supply and marketing cooperatives, the wholesale price of chemical fertilizer for the suburbs and townships is only 451 tons, while the wholesale price of the supply and marketing cooperatives in other places is almost 611 tons, and they have to sell at least 711 tons when they are sold out.
The fertilizer that Zhao Lin sold to the villagers was 30 yuan less than that of the supply and marketing cooperative, and the average was 2 yuan less than a bag.
Taking two dollars as hush money is really a lot.
Li Meng saw that the director of the machinery factory should call his brother-in-law, but he still had to buy cigarettes and alcohol, and at this time he didn't say anything, and the people below didn't take a look, even if the director nodded, the tractor couldn't be borrowed.
Take the factory director's strip and then use tobacco and alcohol to open the road, and the tractor will drive two at once, and how much fertilizer will be pulled.
It's not difficult to buy fertilizer, the household registration book is pressed on the counter, anyway, it's enough money, and it costs two more packs of cigarettes to pull away the fertilizer of two tractors from the warehouse, which smoothly makes Zhao Lin can't believe it.
It's no wonder that being a fallen master can make so much money, and he really supports the bold and starves the cowardly. After a few months, the fertilizer plant was built, and the problem of insufficient supply was no longer a problem, and the money was really not made in vain.
