Chapter 43: The Villagers' Surprise
The next day, just after lunchtime, Zhang Youlong drove to Lotus Village, followed by a group of little children.
Crunch~
Waiting for the car to stop, Zhang Youlong opened the car door with a big belly and shouted, "Xiao Su, are you ready?" ”
Qingli saw the anxious Zhang Youlong and smiled, "Uncle Zhang, you are too anxious, everyone has to work in the morning, and there is no time to help me fish, you rest first, and I will go to find someone to help." ”
Wiping the sweat from his forehead, Zhang Youlong sat on the stone bench and looked at Qingli embarrassedly, "That, can we eat dinner at your house?" Seeing Qingli raise his eyebrows, Zhang Youlong hurriedly said, "Don't worry, we pay per capitation, and we won't let you suffer." ”
"What kind of money is not money, why did you come to my house to take care of a meal, and still pay? It's true that we're rednecks, but we're not stingy! Holding a fruit teacup, Grandpa shouted loudly.
Seeing the old man coming out with something, Zhang Youlong hurriedly trotted over and took the plate in his grandfather's hand, "Look at what you always say, I didn't mean that." There are several of us, and Xiao Su is tired of cooking, so he should give some hard-earned money. The most important thing is to eat the food she cooked, and then eat someone else's cooking, and always feel that something is missing. ”
"Haha, my granddaughter is delicious!" Hearing Zhang Youlong praise his granddaughter, his grandfather was overjoyed, even happier than he praised himself.
"That's, I'll tell you..." Seeing the two of them praising each other, Qingli shook her head helplessly, walked out of the courtyard gate and walked to the field west of the village.
Far away, I saw people busy in the fields, Qingli opened his voice and shouted, "Uncle Ping'an, Uncle Jianjian, don't turn over the ground first, help me." ”
Throwing down the shovel in his hand, he straightened up and beckoned to a few people next to him, "Let's go, help Lili." "Light a cigarette and walk towards the path at the edge of the field.
"Uncle, you help me go to the lake to fish out the cage for raising loaches and yellow eels, as well as soft-shelled turtles, my family will take care of dinner, and give you one hundred, what do you think?"
"What, one hundred people are still in charge of food?" Ping An was shocked and dropped the cigarette in his mouth, thinking that he had misheard.
"yes, isn't there too much glass? How embarrassed you are to be a folk in such a big hometown!" Jianjian rubbed his hands, and his honest face was full of shame for taking advantage.
"That's right, you don't need so much glass, just a few dozen pieces."
"The rest of the people felt it was too much.
Carefully looked at the expressions on the faces of several people, and found that everyone really felt that 100 was a bit much.
Qingli sighed secretly: The villagers are honest and honest, there are still people in other villages who steal chickens and dogs, and there is no such person in Lotus Village, except for a few women whose mouths are broken, everyone keeps to themselves and lives a down-to-earth life.
Patting Jianjian's shoulder, Qingli nodded with a bright smile, "100 is not much, you don't look at what weather it is now, you want to go into the water." Don't think I'm giving less, just wait for me to accompany the guests, I don't have the right person to accompany the guests, I'll wait to call the village chief uncle, trouble the uncles. ”
"Okay, let's go home and change our clothes first, and then go straight to the lake." Extinguishing the cigarette butt with his foot, Jianshe hurried home with a few people to change clothes.
When she came to the village chief's house and found that there was no one in the yard, Qingli stared at the tall elm tree in the yard, thinking about the elm money rice.
"Want to eat Yuqian rice?" The voice from behind startled Qingli, and when she turned around, she saw the village chief pinching a handful of leeks in his hand, looking at her with a smile on his face.
Scratching his head, he saw that the village chief's eyes were clear and his face was red, and then he was not embarrassed when he thought about it, and nodded generously, "Yes, I haven't eaten for a long time." When you grow up, Uncle will have to give me some. ”
"If you want to eat, use a sickle to hook, do you have something to do?" Putting the leeks in the kitchen, the village chief's uncle asked while washing his hands while washing his hands with a basin of water.
"I'm here to find my uncle to help me accompany the guests." Seeing the village chief washing his hands, Qingli dragged people out and pulled them out.
"Got guests at home?"
"Yes, I'm here to buy loaches and yellow eels."
"Well, you have to bring more people from the village in the future, and you can't just care about making a fortune yourself."
"I will."
When I got home, I found that everyone was gone, and I asked Aunt Xia next door to find out that they had all gone to the lake.
When they came to the lake with the village chief, they found that the shore was crowded with people, and most of the people in the village came to see the excitement.
There are people in the lake who are fishing for cages, and people on the shore pour out the loaches and yellow eels in the cages, and put the small ones back. Squeezed along the crowd, Qingli patted Zhang Youlong, who was grinning, "Uncle Zhang, say that you can fish a thousand catties of each, don't you finish fishing for me, do you have an oxygen pump?" Otherwise, I won't be responsible for dying on the road. ”
Staring, Zhang Youlong found that the little girl was serious, patted her big belly, and said loudly, "Don't worry, everything is with you, it has nothing to do with you if you die on the road, you Uncle Zhang still knows this." ”
Looking at the tall and thin old man who followed, Zhang Youlong rubbed his shoulders and stared at the clear glass on the surface of the lake, and asked in a low voice, "Xiao Su, who is this person?" ”
Who? Qingli turned her head suspiciously, saw the village chief looking at her meaningfully, and hurriedly introduced, "This is our village Su Zhongyuan, uncle, this is Zhang Youlong, the owner of the Yuantong Hotel." ”
Hearing that it was the village chief, Zhang Youlong hurriedly stretched out his hand, "I'm really embarrassed, Village Chief Su, you see that I haven't visited you before, forgive me!" "The chubby face was full of smiles, and his eyes were out of sight.
The village chief shook Zhang Youlong's hand a few times, and said with a hearty smile, "What are you doing visiting my old guy, you are here to do business, you don't need to be so polite, but we should thank you, where did you know that these things were bought before, they were all wasted." Alas... "Remembering that the villagers didn't know what they could sell for money before, the village chief felt distressed and frustrated, it was all useless to be the village chief!"
"You're a great place! I think the water quality is good, the environment is good, and the large-scale breeding and planting of aquatic vegetables is very promising. Looking around at the green mountains and green waters, Zhang Youlong's eyes were full of envy.
"Boss, it's all done." A person who came with Zhang Youlong ran to speak.
Nodding, Zhang Youlong said that he knew, and patted Qingli, "Xiao Su, go back and collect the money!" ”
"Good" went home with a few people, followed by a large group of villagers.
Qingli took out a computer and a notebook, put them on the stone pier and began to calculate.
After a burst of crackling, Qingli looked at Zhang Youlong and said, "Uncle Zhang, the loach is 20,000, the yellow eel is 35,000, the soft-shelled turtle is 35,000 for more than one catty, and the one for more than two catties is 55,000, and the total is 145,000." ”
Boom~ Hearing the price quoted by Qingli, the villagers exploded all of a sudden, and no one could have imagined that the things that could be seen everywhere in the fields and rivers were so valuable, and even the grandfather was stunned with his mouth open.
Nodding, Zhang Youlong asked, "Do you want cash or transfer?" ”
After thinking about it, Qingli said, "45,000 in cash, and the remaining 100,000 will be transferred." After that, he signed up for an account.
Zhang Youlong picked up his mobile phone and dialed a call, and it didn't take long for Qingli's mobile phone to come with two beeps, click on the short message, and it was the arrival information.
After taking the remaining tens of thousands, Qingli handed it to his grandfather, got up and went to the kitchen to prepare dinner.
More than an hour later, a sumptuous dinner was ready, and the chicken, duck and fish were complete, and they clapped their hands with satisfaction.
Qingli called a few people to eat together, facing the dishes on the table, no one was polite, and they were full of wine and food, all of them patted their bulging bellies and took a long breath, their expressions were full of satisfaction and comfort.
Sending off the guests and giving away Uncle Jian's wages, he found that a few people and the village chief seemed very silent, and Qingli thought about it and understood why.
No one knew that these things could be sold for money before, and they weren't cheap, so I guess everyone won't be able to sleep tonight.
Hugging Xixi, Qingli fell into a sweet dream.
As for the villagers, most of them turned around until dawn.
