Chapter 10: If you want to get rich, you must first pick up trees

The next day, the sky was clear.

Accustomed to the biological clock of his military career, Ye Rong got up at dawn, ran five laps in the village to warm up in the morning, and then sweated profusely at the sunrise and came to the door of Ye Yu's villa.

Unexpectedly, there were already many villagers waiting at the door of Ye Yu's house, and some villagers were still driving agricultural tricycles. What's even more shocking is that many villagers are still holding long wooden sticks in their hands, is this the rhythm of group fighting?

These are all strange villagers, Ye Rong didn't come forward to say hello for a while, but listened to what they said?

"Yo, Uncle Qin, you take a long wooden stick and go to the back mountain to hunt walnuts?"

"Yes! There is just free time in the past two days, no, a few days ago, I sold the acacia rice, and the pepper was also sold, and yesterday I cut off the bupleurum seeds, and the farm work at home was finished, and there were about ten days and a half months before the corn matured, and I just had my leisure time to pick walnuts for Ye Guangda's boss to earn some pocket money. ”

"Uncle Qin, you're joking, do you still need pocket money? I think yours has the most locust rice in the whole village, and you bought a few thousand yuan, right? ”

"There are not so many, I only bought more than 2,700, and the price of acacia rice is not good this year...... This year's pepper market is good, the granules of large peppercorns are sold for 40 yuan a catty, and the small peppercorns are also 30 pounds, and your Uncle Wang's peppercorns are sold for more than 10,000 yuan! Boy! ”

"Let's not talk about peppercorns, Uncle Ye Guang's walnuts, we helped pick them this year, how much money is a pound of hard work for us?"

"It's still the old price, two yuan a catty, right?"

"Hey, two yuan a catty, we will make a hard money, Uncle Ye Guang is making a lot of money, we picked it from the tree, and he gave us two yuan a catty to recycle. When he turned around, he sold it to big customers, at least a dozen yuan a catty......"

"Who makes the family the boss? Who let the walnut trees in the back mountain be planted when his family returned farmland to forest? Two yuan a pound is not bad, a young man who can climb trees, who doesn't pick a few hundred catties of walnuts a day? It's half a thousand dollars a day, which is much better than a part-time job. ”

"Indeed...... This kind of earning opportunity is also hard to come by. ”

“……”

Ye Rong probably understood, this group of people was holding a long stick, not a group fight!

Instead, I went to beat the peach tree for Ye Yu's family!

Walnut picking!

In the 300 acres of mountainous land that has been returned to forest in the back mountain of Ye Yujia, there is a piece of land planted with walnut trees, and now it is also the season of walnut ripening.

The villagers sold locust rice and peppercorns, and after finishing their farm work, they happened to catch up with the corn before it was ripe, and when they had free time, many villagers helped to pick walnuts.

Picked from the tree, two yuan a pound is considered hard money to pay the villagers.

If you want to get rich, you must first pick up trees!

Ye Rong's two short-term goals, one of which is to make money and get rich, and today's work seems to be to follow the walnut tree......

Picking walnut leaves is quite familiar!

For a stout walnut tree, you definitely need to climb the tree, and after climbing up, use a long wooden stick to pick off the walnuts on the tree, and then someone will pick them up underneath.

Two dollars a pound of hard-earned money?

Ye Rong suddenly felt that it was very easy to make this money!

He came over during the Anti-Japanese War, what kind of suffering has he not suffered? How difficult was it to make some money back then? How is it so easy to make money now? He felt that he could make at least 2,000 pounds a day, which was 4,000 yuan! Of course, Ye Rong has no problem picking up 2,000 catties of walnuts on the tree a day, provided that the walnut tree is full of fruits, don't sparsely pull a few fruits on a tree, then it's a fart, just climbing the tree!

The second problem is that Ye Rong is only responsible for picking up walnuts on the tree, and someone under the walnut tree must help pick up walnuts. If Ye Rong is allowed to finish masturbating on the tree, and after climbing down the tree, he has to pick it up under the tree and put it in a bag, it will be too wasteful of time, and he will definitely not be able to produce the yield in a day.

Cooperate!

Ye Rong felt that it seemed that he had to find someone to work with......

One person may not be enough...... Must be two people...... Ye Rong has discovered that in the new century in today's affluent environment, the toiling masses no longer have the enthusiasm for labor they had in the past, they have no motivation, they are grinding and grinding when they get to work, and they are reluctant to work in the fields at noon because of the sun! I want to cut wheat in the middle of the night, and a farm work lasts at least a month! Nowadays, it is said that with machinery, the harvest of wheat ends in two days......

Inertia! The toiling masses under high technology are dependent on machinery and lazy! I can't stand that pain anymore!

Ye Rong must find a collaborator who can suffer and minimize the number of collaborators, otherwise it will be easy for more people to work, but he will definitely be dumbfounded when he divides the money.

Then!

Ye Rong saw the poor grandson Ye Fu and his wife in the crowd.

Ye Fu drove his own agricultural tricycle, this tricycle Ye Rong knew, and it was parked downstairs in his house yesterday, Ye Fu's daughter-in-law sat in the car, and it was estimated that she was also going to pick walnuts for his eldest brother Ye Guang. After all, two yuan a pound of hard-earned money is still quite attractive, and green-skinned walnuts are still quite weighty, just one or two pounds casually, that's all money!

Although it is the walnut of the eldest brother Ye Guang, this poor little brother Ye Fu also wants to make this money!

Ye Rong's gaze finally fell on Ye Fu's daughter-in-law......

Although this granddaughter-in-law is not tall, she is also over half a hundred years old, and she is a little old, but Ye Rong can see that she is definitely a person who is willing to endure hardships! This granddaughter-in-law in a poor life is definitely a doer! It's a good partner to work with!

And this leaf is ......

Ye Rong shook his head secretly, no wonder his family is poor, this little grandson of Ye Rong ...... Not in good health! It can't be said that he is lazy, but he is not in good health. From the shorts he was wearing, his bare calves could be seen to be bad, and there were a few large bumps on his calves.

It's not something else, it's varicose veins. This disease is still relatively common in middle-aged people who are a little older, so Ye Rong knows it. With a pair of legs like this, the legs don't have much strength and are prone to sleepiness. He couldn't run back and forth or climb trees.

He is definitely not a suitable collaborator!

That's it!

Ye Rong found a collaborator, that is, Ye Fu's daughter-in-law, his granddaughter-in-law. The so-called fertilizer water does not flow into the fields of outsiders, and Ye Rong doesn't want to find others. And then there's ...... I had a meal at her house last night, I ate too much, and I didn't seem to be treated well, Ye Rong wanted to improve the relationship between them, after all, they were relatives, although she didn't know Ye Rong's relative......

Ye Rong walked over.

Politely, smiling, and greeted kindly, "Hello." ”

"Is that you?" Ye Fu and his wife, with a glance at their eyes, seemed to not want to deal with Ye Rong, a foodie.

"Are you going to pick walnuts too?" Ye Rong asked.

"Yes."

Ye Fu is still a good person, Ye Rong greeted him with a smile, he didn't like to be cold-faced, so he passively greeted him, "What, you go too?" ”

"Hmm!" Ye Rong nodded, and then began to rip his skin, "It seems that your peppercorns have not been confiscated, right?" Didn't you finish cutting it yesterday? Ye Rong wanted to drive Ye Fu home to cut peppercorns, leaving only his granddaughter-in-law as a partner.

"I haven't finished cutting, but my eldest brother's walnuts are starting to harvest, so I have no choice but to stop my farm work first and help my eldest brother's family." Ye Fu's face is quite thin, and he is embarrassed to say that he is going to make money, "I don't know what's going on?" The original walnut harvest time was set for four days later. After four days, my family was also free, and I don't know why it was suddenly advanced. ”

Ye Fu's daughter-in-law interjected: "I heard that the eldest brother's family found a coolie yesterday, and he couldn't let this coolie just eat but not work, so the time to pick walnuts was suddenly advanced." It's all this coolie and bad thing, so that my peppercorns haven't been cut......"

"Ugh!"

Ye Rong was speechless, he was this coolie! Unexpectedly, because of him, Ye Guang actually took a lot of trouble and started picking walnuts in advance.

This is Ye Guang's unwillingness to give Ye Rong more food, and he wants to frantically squeeze Ye Rong's cheap labor!

"After all, I am your ancestor, do you treat your ancestors like this?"

Ye Rong was furious.

"...... like this"

Ye Rong suggested to Ye Fu and his wife: "Your family's pepper can't be delayed, or ......" Ye Rong looked at Ye Fu, he really didn't know what to call it, Ye Fu was also old, from the age point of view, he was a generation older than Ye Guang, he should be called an uncle, but he was really a grandchild, the uncle couldn't be called, and it was really inappropriate to call him by name.

Ye Rong could only omit the title and said, "You go home and get busy with your peppercorns!" I ...... with her," and my granddaughter-in-law didn't know what to call her, so she omitted the title, "I cooperated with her to go and beat walnuts." ”

Ye Rong said the detailed plan, "I'll go up to the tree, and she will pick it up under the tree." ”

"That's not going to work!"

Granddaughter-in-law is a calculating person, "We were originally two people, and all the money we earned in a day was our own." I'll work with you, and I'll share half of the money I earn. And there are few people in my family, and we don't do it if we obviously make less money! ”

The granddaughter-in-law doesn't trust Ye Rong either!

Just yesterday's meal, Ye Rong's identity as a big liar who eats and drinks bastard!

Daughter-in-law Sun continued: "I don't want to cooperate with you, when the time comes, you are too lazy to work, you don't even climb the tree, you can't climb the tree, I can't climb the tree as a woman, I can't pick a few catties of walnuts in a day, and this day will be wasted by you!" ”

"What do you say? You say I can't climb the tree? What a joke! Hahahaha----"

Isn't Ye Rong arrogant, he grew up in a mountain village, he was a bandit, he was a soldier, he can't climb trees?

"Believe it or not, I'll crawl to show you now?"

Ye Rong searched left and right, but in the middle of the new alley, due to the new cement road, the once big trees were cut down, and there was no tree for Ye Rong to climb!

There is only one telephone pole and one street light......

Ye Rong suddenly pointed his fingers like a sword, pointing to the roof of Ye Yu's small third-floor villa, climbing street lamps or telephone poles or something, he always felt a little pediatric, it was a trick played by little children and monkeys, Ye Rong still felt that the cornices were more shocking, "That's it!" The roof of the villa on the third floor, do you think I can go up? ”

"Impossible!"

The granddaughter-in-law is determined!

Ye Fu saw Ye Rong pointing to the roof of a house that was at least ten meters high, and without the help of any tools, no one in the entire village could climb it! The fourth child of the Qin family, who is the most powerful tree climber in the village, can't climb the wall, let alone the roof!

Ye Fu also concluded, "Young man, don't laugh!" ”

The surrounding villagers also gradually discovered the movement here, and when they heard the homeless man brag that he could climb to the roof of the villa on the third floor, they exchanged heads and ears for a while, and laughed, "I said buddy, cowhide is not like that!" People who dare to stand here, dare to go to the walnut tree, who climbs the tree and climbs the height? I have never seen such an arrogant person who dares to say that he can climb to the roof of a house more than ten meters high without borrowing any tools? ”

"We don't believe it!"

"I don't think he can even climb the telephone pole and street lamp next to him......"

"Behold, there are oxen flying in the sky! Who's blowing? ”

"Hahaha-"
