424, returnee foursome
"Milk, I see a lot of willow fish here, I remember when I was a child, I went to the dam in the summer, and put some rice soaked in sesame oil with a sieve, which attracted a lot of willow fish? Although this wicker fish has no meat, as long as it is wrapped in flour and fried, it is crispy and crispy, and it is best to use it as a snack. Chen Yuezhi's palm was spread out with a few things that looked like withered willow leaves.
Wang Ruoyu asked curiously: "Hey, I thought this was a dead leaf just now, is it also a fish?" ”
"Yes, you should know the chameleon, it changes to protect itself with its natural color, we have this willow leaf fish here, it is also yes, when it is spring, its color becomes tender green, when people pick it up, it is like a dead willow leaf, this is also a way to save life. It's transparent when it's in the water. Chen Yuezhi put the wicker fish in his hand into the basin alone, and sure enough, the fish that had turned over its belly just now was swimming happily again at this moment.
And their bodies have changed from dry yellow to transparent, and even the fish bones in them can be seen clearly.
Everyone exclaimed, even a fish is so smart, is it really funny?
Here, Chen Yuezhi and others finally negotiated the names of all the dishes: steamed river crab, roasted radish with river shrimp, black fish soup with sauerkraut, braised grass carp segments, stewed tofu with bighead carp head, steamed farmhouse sausage, chestnut roast chicken, fried wicker fish, roasted pork with snow cabbage, stir-fried vegetables, and cold carrots, a total of 12 dishes.
Wang Jinhua and his wife, plus Qiao Mai's family of three and five people, Wang Ruoyu and Tian Mei and other five people, ten people eat twelve dishes is enough.
Because farmhouse food is not the kind of big restaurants that are served on small plates. Directly use the big bowl, that amount, let alone ten people. Even if there are ten more, it will be enough.
The staple food of the evening is dumplings, noodles, buns, steamed buns, anyway, there are all of them, and if you want to eat something, you can go to the pot and get it yourself.
Chen Yuezhi's sisters. After finishing the work for the old couple, they left, and they also entertained several tables of guests at their own house. Wang Jinhua hurriedly packed some vegetables, put them in the basket, and asked her to carry them back.
Chen Yuezhi was not polite, and said hello to Wang Ruoyu and the others. Just left.
The tourists had dinner at their farmhouses. I took a bath again, sat in the earthen fire barrel hotly, and listened to the old people talk about the ancients.
Some old people, although they have not been to many big cities, have heard a lot of strange stories because of their long lives, and they are even more wonderful than those described in the novel. Some of the girls were so timid that they covered their mouths and exclaimed again and again. I didn't even dare to go to the toilet.
In the middle of the night, there was a sound on the roof, Chen Yuezhi opened the window to see that it was snowing again, and the snowflakes were light, covering up the road that everyone had walked before.
The guests are all asleep, but the big guys can't sleep, Chen Weihe, the village head, and the people who are in charge of the fish pond, lotus pond and water chestnut field today, as well as a few people from the commissary, are seriously dialing the abacus beads, calculating today's income.
The big guy finished the calculation, looked at the dense calculations on the book, and then looked at the results, I couldn't believe it, this number is too amazing, right?
The Li family's water chestnuts are considered to have the least income, but today they also have an income of more than 500 yuan, and if the Chen family is not included, the three commissaries that get the most money are actually the three stores.
Jinlin Village was originally a small store, mainly selling daily necessities and miscellaneous things, but recently due to the reminder of the Chen family, two more companies have joined, one of which specializes in selling clothes, shoes, socks and other items, and the other sells cigarettes, alcohol, and children's plastic toys.
The most profitable is the tobacco and alcohol commissary, which has 1,600 yuan, the second is the one that sells clothes, and the second is the one that sells clothes, and there are also many shops that sell daily necessities, with more than 900 yuan.
"Oh my God, so much money, it's actually a day's income, after removing the cost and labor, we also make a lot of money, and we usually have to work for a month or two to have so much money?" Li Haoren was amazed again and again.
Chen Wei said with a smile: "Today is the first day, there are not too many people, and in a few days, there will be more people, and the business will be better. ”
Li Haoren hurriedly cooperated: "That's right, listen to Secretary Chen, if someone dares to ruin the reputation of our Jinlin Village, don't blame my old Li for not talking about his fellow villagers, and invite you out of Jinlin Village when the time comes." ”
"No, village chief, you can rest assured."
"Yes, we are not so stupid to lose a hundred or even a thousand dollars in the future for the sake of a dollar."
Everyone had a smile of joy on their faces and expressed their attitudes.
It was already the second half of the night after the account was settled, but everyone was excited, and where they could sleep, they sat and talked for a while, until two or three o'clock, and then they dispersed and went home.
The next day, a new commotion began, and the tourists, who were close to their homes, went back in the evening, and those who were far away naturally stayed, and the next morning, when they ate the breakfast of the farmhouse, they were all very close to their peers.
Some people put forward opinions to each family, hoping that there would be some entertainment in the village at night, otherwise it would be too monotonous. Because the stories of the old people, that's all there is to say, they are novel at first, and then they are boring when they hear them.
The village chief naturally accepted their idea, and immediately convened a meeting of the village cadres, so that everyone could work together, and some people said that it was better to pool money to buy a color TV, and I heard that thing, the people who came out were grass, and it looked much better than in reality.
But there are also people who object, saying that those guests are all from rich families, all from big cities, if they want to watch color TV, why should they come to the countryside?
They definitely want to see, something raw.
Li Haoren invited the old people in the village, who were highly respected, to ask for their thoughts.
Some people said that they could sing shadow puppet plays, some people said that they could play erhu, some people said they could play big plays, some people said they could play big plays, some people said they could pick high warps, and some people said that they could advance the dragon lantern that danced in the first lunar month.
There was also an old man when he was young. has been to the Northeast, and even proposed that he can play the Northeast two-person turn. Bao Zhun is very funny.
Li Haoren discussed with the village and decided that the money for this musical instrument tool would be paid by the village, and everyone would perform it for free first, and then charge it when it became famous.
But with so many projects, it is impossible to do them at the same time, so that's it. A total of seven items were scheduled, one each night, and so on until next week. Repeat, so that the guests want to see, which one day, wouldn't it be great?
Wait until it gets bigger. I also put some clothes and so on. Make it a little more professional and look better.
Shangguan Lei took full charge of this advertisement, and newspapers, television, and various channels were all placed, and it was famous all over the country.
Tourists walked in waves until a few days before the Chinese New Year. It's a little bit of a stop.
Everyone was busy and tired, but they were very happy. I'm happiest when I close the door at night and count the money.
According to Li Haoren's statistics, in less than two months, all the villagers in Jinlin Village have at least an average daily income of more than 100, and that is even more than thousands.
Originally thought that when the New Year was over, it would be easy to relax and be happy, who expected that they could still receive orders, and someone actually asked, do they provide Chinese New Year's Eve dinner?
They really haven't taken in outsiders for Chinese New Year's Eve?
After all, the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner is a very sacred thing, the big guy is a little hesitant, who expected that the guest was also stubborn, saying that he just wanted to come here for the New Year, and said that money is not a problem.
Chen Wei inquired about their thoughts, and it turned out that they were several successful returnees who went abroad with their parents when they were very young, and they didn't come back for many years, and they had no relatives in China.
They really want to experience the atmosphere of the Chinese New Year in rural China, not the nature of visiting, but as if they are celebrating the New Year in their own home.
It just so happened that some of them had friends who had just come back from Jinlin travel, and immediately recommended this place when they heard their ideas, and said that the price here is cheap, the villagers are very simple and natural, and the hospitality is warm and thoughtful, and the key is that the craftsmanship is not bad.
Seeing that Chen Wei had been very hesitant, the other party simply offered an offer: "We want to fully experience the feeling of the New Year in the countryside, so we will probably live from the 25th day of the lunar month to the end of the 15th day of the first lunar month, and give you 10,000 yuan, do you think it is feasible?" ”
"I don't know what kind of consumption your 10,000 yuan includes?" Chen Wei put the phone on the hands-free, but everyone heard it, and immediately gasped, and gave 10,000 yuan for half a month, this business can be done.
They all wanted to agree quickly, as if they were afraid that people would regret it, but when they heard Chen Wei's words, they all held their breath.
"Oh, don't worry, this 10,000 yuan is just the money for accommodation and food, and we will pay for the rest of our own expenses, and we will pay for it separately, and we won't let you afford it."
Li Haoren's face was full of excitement, and he couldn't wait to directly agree to it.
However, Chen Wei still had something to ask: "I don't know how many of you have in total, what kind of requirements do you have?" ”
"Oh, that's right, there are four of us in total, and our requirements are, one, try to arrange the household with a large number of family members, preferably both parents, and at least two brothers and sisters. Second, even the housing conditions should not be too bad, and third, the character of the head of the household should be honest, and the brothers and sisters in the family should be very harmonious with each other. Because I heard our elders say that in the countryside, the more crowded the home, the more lively the Chinese New Year will be, and there will be many programs and arrangements, we just want to experience it. ”
The other party is still a little inflexible in speaking Chinese, and from time to time he will turn a corner, and even come out with half a foreign language.
Chen Wei said that they should think about it, after all, putting Chinese New Year's Eve into the business, such a thing has never happened before, and they have to be cautious.
And Chen Wei also has a requirement, that is, the guests and residents are two-way, and they also hope that the guests' conduct is good and not too picky.
As soon as the other party heard that they had to think about it, they were very happy, and they also reassured Chen Wei that they would never provoke indiscriminately, because they really wanted to experience such a life, and they didn't come to find a fork.
Chen Wei said that he had to think about it, but in fact, he had to discuss with the village chief, whether there were such people in the village who met the requirements, and whether those people were willing or not, they had to be discussed.
As a result, according to the conditions proposed by the other party, the village screened and selected about eight households, including Chen Yue's family, a total of eight.
It's just that only three are willing to entertain guests, and the other five are not very willing to celebrate the New Year, and there are outsiders stranded, they are worried about the whereabouts of the guests, what if it is a bad person?
The money they earned this winter has been a net income for several years, and there is no need to expose the safety of the whole family for 10,000 yuan.
Among them, the hostess of one of the Meng family was willing, but the male owner was unwilling, because his family had three daughters, the youngest was fourteen years old, and the oldest was twenty-one years old, all of whom had not yet married.
The other four families simply refused, their elders were very old-fashioned, and they would never allow inexplicable people to appear when their families worshiped their ancestors during the New Year.
Chen Wei could only tell the other party about the situation, but the other party laughed briskly: "There are four of us this time, and there is a lady among them, we still thought that we would like to ask you to find a more suitable family for her." I also want to ask Mr. Chen to help ask, if it is a lady, can I stay at their house, we can give more money. ”
Chen Wei went to discuss with the Meng family again, and when the men of the Meng family heard that the guest who came to stay was a girl, and she was also very young, about the same age as their daughter, he nodded and agreed.
Finally got together enough four, the big guy discussed again, although it is a good thing to say that there is more money, but it can't be too slaughtering, and finally discussed, and determined that the price is set at four eight, trying to be auspicious.
Chen Wei replied to them again, and hoped that they could pay a deposit of 1,000 in advance, and they would now start to prepare all kinds of food, clothing, housing, and transportation that one more person needed.
The other party claimed to be Tang Wenhua, asked Chen Wei to report the account, and soon the deposit of 4,000 yuan came over, which was very simple and did not drag the mud at all.
Tang Wenhua said that they are still meeting friends in the capital and will leave for the train tonight, so they hope that someone can go to the county train station to pick them up.
There is no problem with this, of course.
The four families selected to receive guests are Chen Yue's house, Yao Liuguo's house, Meng Yanyan's house, and Yu Xiaoyu's house.
Two people from each family, an elder and a child, took the Chen family's truck together the next day and went to the county seat to pick up people.
There have always been people who have been in touch with Tang Culture in the middle, and Chen Yuezhi and they specially made a big solitaire, which was held up by Shangguan Lei, which was particularly conspicuous in the crowd.
Not long after the train arrived at the station, as soon as the door opened, there was a crowd of people pouring out, Chen Yuezhi and others tiptoed around to look around, suddenly Yu Xiaoyu felt that someone had been patted on the shoulder, she quickly turned around, only to see a girl with slightly curly hair, wearing a crystal bow, big eyes, and as cute as a doll, wearing an orange woolen suit, stuck out her tongue and smiled: "May I ask if you came from Jinlin Village to pick up people?" ”
Everyone had already learned about the information of these four people in advance, and they had also seen the photos, so Meng Yanyan recognized her at a glance: "I have seen your photo, you are Alice, right?" You're so cute, like a princess. It's beautiful! (To be continued.) )
