On the last day of the long holiday, early in the morning, Zhang Wenlin and his son rode the only valuable belongings of the family, the Phoenix brand bicycle, to the township.

This time I went to the township, not for anything else, but to contract other ponds in Baihu Bay, in addition to the 5,000 yuan paid to the civilized family, the family was full of calculations and there were about 40,000 yuan left to make up all that could be made, and if you want to contract it, there is still a lot of difference, but Zhang Chen gave the old man an idea.

"What? Contracting White Lake Bay? Wait, this matter is the responsibility of Deputy Township Chief Liu. ”

The father and son waited for less than a few minutes before they saw a young cadre with combed hair coming over, about thirty years old, looking a little younger than his own son.

"Are you Zhang Wenlin? Are you the Zhang Chen who rushed into the fire to save people? ”

Hearing this, Zhang Chen smiled, daring to love this father and son who still know them, acquaintances are easy to do, it seems that the time to go out today is a good choice.

"Who are you?"

"This is Deputy Township Chief Liu of the township."

"Hello, Township Chief Liu, I'm Zhang Wenlin, this is my son, this time I came to the township to contract Baihu Bay."

Liu Ming is only in his thirties, and it stands to reason that it is extremely rare to reach the level of deputy township chief at the grassroots level, but in Liu Ming's view, he still lacks a chance to turn over.

Although there are more than a dozen administrative villages in Batou Township, there are not many outside the village after all, and such a big thing naturally spreads quickly.

He also knew about Baihu Bay, and he had studied it, this place is definitely promising for breeding, but no matter how the township publicizes, no one dared to contract a few years ago, Zhang Wenlin of Baihe Village was the first person who dared to eat crabs, but the results have not yet come out, but he didn't expect that before the first crab could eat his mouth, the Zhang family father and son would come to ask for the remaining crabs.

Whether the crab can eat it is still a question, but in any case, it is better to have someone to contract than not at all, and no matter how low the contract fee is, it is also money, which is much better than abandoning the grass growing there.

"White Lake? I remember you've already contracted a piece, why do you want to come again? ”

"That's the case, Township Chief Liu, I plan to contract the rest of the ponds, and raise fish fry in the coming year, some plan to raise some aquatic plants for the fish to eat, and now the fish raised by feed are not easy to sell, or the fish that eat grass is better, the piece I contracted is too small, I think no one will contract anyway, fortunately, it will be contracted for a few years, and it is good to raise some grass."

Zhang Wenlin's words are not leaky, it is Zhang Chen's way to tell him, it is nothing more than to reduce the price, Baihuwan is valuable, but no one knows that it is valuable now, even if the price increase is a matter of the future, he will not take advantage of the township, first contract for three or five years, and then increase the price.

I have to say that this remark really came to Liu Ming's heart, this Baihu Bay has been there for some years, it's not that no one has contracted, in previous years, the contract has lost money, there is too much lake water, and the net is raised in the middle of the water, and the money is lost every year, and then no one does it.

It's been a few years to have a Zhang Wenlin, and he doesn't want to ruin the fun, less money is also meat, the township's finances are not rich, and no matter how bad this thing is, it can cost tens of thousands of yuan more. It's just that what Zhang Wenlin said made him a little embarrassed.

Baihuwan turned out to be contracted to grow grass, and if you don't have money and nowhere to spend it, your brain will burn out.

But this has nothing to do with him, people spend their own money, he does his own thing, takes his own political achievements, and invites the father and son to the office politely.

"If you contract it all, the cost is not low, how many years do you plan to take?"

Zhang Wenlin deliberately hesitated for a moment, and then said:

"If the price given by the township is good, then I will contract for three or five years, if it is too high, it will only be one or two years, I will continue to throw it into the fish pond, this contract is also borrowed from relatives and friends, if it is not for the pond of fish, I will not contract."

"That's it!"

Liu Ming also couldn't make up his mind when he heard this, let's say more, this Baihu Bay is all contracted out for 10,000 or 20,000 yuan a year, if it is more, people only contract for one year, then it will be 10,000 yuan in death.

"You see if this will work, the price in the township was originally at least 20,000 a year, since you think so, then we calculate it this way, if you contract for more than three years, then we will contract it to you at the price of 15,000 years."

"Fifteen thousand?"

Zhang Chen secretly read in his heart, this price is not high, at least not much worse than what he thought in advance, but this price is 40,000 for three years, and the old Zhang family only has 30,000 left, even if he wants to contract.

Sure enough, Zhang Wenlin showed a look of "It's come to this point, forget it", and at a glance, he knew that he couldn't afford this price.

Seeing this, Liu Ming knew in his heart that the other party couldn't afford it, and he also understood that who could come up with forty or fifty thousand yuan in cash from the countryside, and this matter could not be paid on credit, and Zhang Wenlin could spend tens of thousands of yuan to toss the fish pond It was already good.

"What? It's too much, so how much do you think you want? ”

"Ten thousand twelve!"

Before Zhang Wenlin could speak, he heard Zhang Chen, the half-eldest son on the side, suddenly say, Zhang Wenlin showed a look of surprise on his face when he heard this, as if he wanted to say something, where would Liu Ming give him a chance, and hurriedly said:

"12 thousand? Although the price is a bit low, it's not impossible, so let's do it, how many years do you want it? ”

He didn't snap others and said that he was taking advantage of children, but he didn't know that Zhang Wenlin and his son had already laughed in their hearts at this time, and the father and son sang really well in this double reed.

"Township Chief Liu, do you think I can only rent for one year?"

Zhang Wenlin was afraid that Liu Ming would return, so he said with some trepidation, Zhang Chen had already stretched out three fingers.

"Dad, this price is exactly three years, and our family has a total of 36,000 yuan left, 12,000 yuan a year, and exactly 36,000 yuan in three years."

The young man's words are always very naïve, and Liu Ming is not funny when he hears it, but he knows in his heart that this is Zhang Wenlin's bottom line, if he doesn't say it in time, I'm afraid Zhang Wenlin will be a little less, and it will be impossible to use up all the family's savings.

Out of the township government, with a three-year contract, Zhang Wenlin smiled in his heart but also had a trace of apprehension, this time it is equivalent to blocking all his net worth, in case he does not succeed, he can only drink the northwest wind, fortunately, the family's money has been spent, and there is still a pond of fish in the pond.

Zhang Chen actually calculated an account in his heart, according to the general situation he remembered, the fish in this Baihu Bay is more than 100,000 catties, and the price of different fish species is also much different, but there are things in it that are absolutely valuable, such as Wang Ba and hairy crabs, as well as river shrimp and some precious fish species, the price is high and easy to sell.

Millions of accounts should be no problem, and in the coming year, he has already thought about it, and he wants to raise fish scientifically, and the aquaculture industry at this time is still very promising.

As soon as autumn begins, the days fly by, and in a blink of an eye, it is already November, Zhang Chen has fully adapted to the new life, and the old lady in the fish shed spends more and more time, because her body has been somewhat revealed.

The new house of the Hailin family was also built, and they moved in after a little decoration, and the new house was completed, and the people of the Hailin family were more and more grateful to Zhang Chen's family, but Zhang Wenlin's contracting of Baihu Bay was not known to many people in the entire Zhang Wan team, and only the old secretary and captain of the team knew about it.

During this time, they were busy circling around the fish pond, and the family had never been to Liuyang Village in Baihe Village, and Zhang Chen's grandmother's house was in the Taoyuan Brigade in Liuyang Village.

In Baihe Primary School, Zhang Chen's fifth grade is not interesting at all, and he also seems a little helpless to follow a group of teenage children all day long, and the teachers of Baihe Primary School are all acquaintances in front of and behind the house, and few don't know each other.

There are five classes in the fifth grade of Baihe Primary School, but there are seven or eight teachers, and there are nearly fifty people in the fifth grade of the 95th grade, the head teacher Duan Chunyuan is responsible for taking language and ideological character, and the mathematics teacher Wang Yueqiu is responsible for taking mathematics and nature, and the physical education and music classes are a young female teacher, and there are basically no activities in the countryside, nothing more than singing and playing table tennis.

"Zhang Chen, you go to the blackboard and do this question."

The spirit was wandering outside the world, Zhang Chen suddenly felt a pain in his head, and then saw the math teacher Wang Yueqiu looking at him with an unhappy face, just now it was the chalk head in his hand that smashed himself.

His eyes fell on the blackboard and looked at the question, which was quite difficult, for fifth-grade students, it is estimated that he would not do much, although the knowledge is simple, there are more twists and turns in the middle, Zhang Chen is not polite, he knows that if he does not do well, he is conservatively estimated that he will be pinched today.

Three or two strokes outlined a simple road map, the total distance, individual speed, individual distance, etc., and then listed the detailed steps to solve the problem on the blank blackboard on the side, Wang Yueqiu glanced at it, and was a little surprised in his heart.

After all, Zhang Chen's grades have never been very top-notch, and it is not easy to make this topic in such a short period of time, even if he has seen this topic in advance, it takes a certain amount of ability to do it so clearly.

"Teacher Wang, I'm done!"

"Well, let's go down, don't get distracted in class in the future!"

A math class passed so boringly, Zhang Chen fell asleep after class as always, the boys were playing marbles and table tennis in physical education class, and the girls were all skipping rope, but he ran circles around the dirty playground alone, and if he counted carefully, he could run for nearly half an hour.

Zhang Chen finished the midterm exam before the weekend in the fastest time, and then ran home, followed by Zhang Hailin, this kid's test paper was done quickly, and his grades were not bad, since Zhang Chen rescued him from the fire that time, it seems that he has become his follower.

"Chenzi, where are you going this afternoon?"

"Catch fish."

"Catching fish? Is your house open? ”

"Hmm!"

It turned out that the fish in Zhang Chen's pond had been raised for almost a year, and the old man wanted to try the net, but Zhang Chen did not agree with him to fish the first pond in his own house, but wanted to put the net in the rest of the pond.

The rest are all fish fry that have not been laid, and even if there are Chen fish, there will not be too many, but Zhang Chen knows that there is a lot of stock here, and now that the contract has been signed, he doesn't have to wait for next year, and he can clean those ponds this year.

This time, Zhang Chen didn't want the old man to alarm too many people, but planned to let Zhang Wenming and his wife go it alone with his old man, use a small net to pull, pull a batch and sell a batch, and make a name for himself first.

After experiencing the promotional methods of later generations, Zhang Chen naturally would not let his Lao Tzu carry the burden to sell fish all over the world.
