Chapter 30: Excited
After sharing the money and preparing the money for clothes and liberation shoes, Hao Jiali couldn't remember what she was going to do with the rest of the money.
So much money will not be used up in the countryside at the end of the seventies.
Hao Jiali compared, remembering that her mother had gone to the city to get the money given by her father and talked about her father's salary, and her father only had a salary of twenty or thirty yuan a month, Hao Jiali calculated that the money she made selling loaches in a month was really twice as high as the monthly salary of her father, who was a worker in the city, Hao Jiali was excited.
Hao Jiali felt that the loach was no longer a loach in her eyes, but a life-saving grass, money, rice, and the source of all the materials that Hao Jiali relied on to survive.
This source is also the three people in Hao Jiali's family, just like the heart needs blood and the lungs need oxygen, they need it and can't do without it.
understood the importance of loaches to his family of three, so Hao Jiali began to frequently appear on the paddy field ridges of the production team.
Hao Jiali has to carefully observe and then analyze what feasible ways the paddy fields of the production team want to go down, instead of relying on her own blind and impulsive methods at the beginning.
Of course, Hao Jiali still has to calculate the life span of making money from paddy fields to make loaches, and Hao Jiali hopes that selling loaches will no longer be like selling snails in three or two months, and the road will be cut off by the season.
Hao Jiali has calculated, from September to April next year, the farmland of the production team has been in a state of rest for seven months, even if the spring equinox next spring to plant seedlings, it will also occupy part of the farmland, and in the middle of seven months, Hao Jiali can wantonly catch loaches and sell them in these fields without interference.
However, there is one point, Hao Jiali has never had a bottom in her heart.
Hao Jiali felt that she was not real yet, and went down to walk freely and rummaged through the entire farmland to find loaches, and the fact that there were loaches in the paddy fields has been seen to be true, but how many of them are all a mystery, Hao Jiali can only guess that she can get a pound ashore in an afternoon according to the minimum standard, if she can't get it? Hao Jiali is equal to another empty joy, so Hao Jiali must start with the number of paddy fields.
Hao Jiali took a two-choice approach.
Hao Jiali chose like this: if there are no loaches in this hill farmland, then it is impossible to have no loaches in the next hill farmland, if there are only a few loaches in this hill farmland, maybe there will be countless hills of farmland and not necessarily, Hao Jiali thinks that with such a mentality in the number of acres of farmland to make a fuss, so that their grasp will be greater, and the disappointment will be smaller, and despair will not come again and again to hit the hearts of the three people in this family.
With such a steady idea, Hao Jiali immediately spent an afternoon counting all the farmland of the production team.
Excluding the production team, except for the paddy fields where rape flowers are planted and the dry fields that are irrigated by water in the middle of the mountainside, Hao Jiali cannot be allowed to go to the fields, and the remaining production teams can let Hao Jiali go down to catch loaches in the paddy fields, which account for almost 60 percent of the entire production team's paddy fields, and the production team has a total of more than 100 acres of farmland, so that more than 60 acres of land will be all stopped for cultivation in winter, so that all the money spent by Hao Jiali's family will come from these 60 acres of farmland.
"Sixty acres! What a concept! ”
Hao Jiali couldn't believe her eyes and said to herself.
"From this winter, I, Hao Jiali, will finally be freed from the days of poverty."
Hao Jiali told herself over and over again.
In addition to being excited, Hao Jiali was still a little dissatisfied, and she was afraid that she would go on the road of selling snails again.
Then, Hao Jiali touched the same method as using mathematical formulas to draw inferences from one application problem, and Hao Jiali deliberately drew a bright morning, Hao Jiali counted the rice fields that were not planted with rape flowers from the first production team of the Wech Brigade of SJ Commune, and counted until the last production team, a total of thirteen production teams, stopped cultivating the rice fields.
These fields, plus the 60 acres of farmland of Hao Jiali's own production team, are almost thousands of acres of farmland, and this 1,000 acres of farmland is all bare in winter, and they are all open and waiting for Hao Jiali's input.
And because it is winter, at this time each production team members have harvested the late rice of the production team and sown the crops for the winter, all the farmers are sitting at home like hibernating snakes and mice do not go out, they either sit around the stove to roast the fire, or play hand to pull the word card gambling money, Hao Jiali does not understand how to play these cards, only to hear these adults at the card table shouting: "Run, down, cage, fire." Hao Jiali didn't know what these terms meant, and Hao Jiali didn't want to understand them.
Hao Jiali only hopes that these people will gamble at home this winter as before, and will not go to the paddy field to grab the loaches with her, it is best to do that even if the loaches get out of the water and climb to the ridge, they are too lazy to catch them, so that the loaches from the first team to the thirteenth production team are Hao Jiali's.
"A thousand acres of farmland! Loaches from a thousand acres of farmland! Hao Jiali has thought about it, if this number of acres can't support this family in this winter, then fate and God are going to die for this family of three.
But on the other hand, Hao Jiali thought again, what kind of concept would it be if there were several loaches in a place like the one Hao Jiali saw in the paddy field last time?
Hao Jiali didn't dare to think about it.
Because every time I think about Hao Jiali, I am excited, I will not be able to sleep for several nights, and then I can't close my eyes when I look at the sky outside the window, although there are no stars and no moon in the winter sky, Hao Jiali is just looking at the haze of the night, listening to the tranquility of the night, Hao Jiali also has to see and hear the dawn until the daytime sunlight penetrates and dissolves the haze and tranquility of the night.
And no matter what Hao Jiali thinks, Hao Jiali used the farmland of the brigade to pave and extend the road for selling loaches throughout the winter and early spring, and then Hao Jiali just figured out how to get these loaches ashore.
It is the most practical thing to get these loaches ashore and sell them for money, but now none of them have been ashore, and Hao Jiali thinks that it is not that she has thought of a way, or found a way to make money to support her family.
But to get the loaches ashore, this problem really stumped Hao Jiali.
Catching loaches in the paddy field and picking snails in the paddy field are also involved in cold water and mud, Hao Jiali has been thinking about it for a few days, and she still hasn't thought of how to get this paddy field.
The fiber bag tried the well water, the water boots fell into the mud and took root as if it was so tight that it couldn't pull it out, Hao Jiali stood on the ridge with a hoe and her feet didn't go into the water, and then dug the mud of the paddy field to the ridge with a hoe, this method is okay, and a few loaches were dug out, but the hoe and hoe handle in Hao Jiali's hand were only so long, and they couldn't reach the middle of the field.
The widest area of the production team's field is two acres, three acres and a mound, Hao Jiali can dig the mud near the edge of the ridge can be easily dug, if Hao Jiali stretches out her hand and wants to dig farther, Hao Jiali will dig like a hoe.
This caused the hoe to swing out into the field as soon as it was forced, but if it wasn't for Hao Jiali grabbing the handle of the hoe tightly, the hoe would have been thrown out of Hao Jiali's hands more than ten meters away from her feet.
And if the hoe is not thrown, the edge of the hoe will be eaten deep into the mud.
That's not all, when Hao Jiali wanted to turn up the blade of the hoe that had been eaten in the mud and drag the mud under the hoe to her feet to look for the loach, because when she threw the hoe, the blade of the hoe ate the mud deeply and tightly, Hao Jiali tried hard to pull the hoe to her feet, but she dragged her body over to the mud, and dragged Hao Jiali's whole face and body into the water, making Hao Jiali's body wet like a chicken in soup in winter.
Moreover, Hao Jiali looked at the area of this hill field after digging with a hoe, the distance between the four ridges and the field added up to less than one-fiftieth of the area of a hill and three acres of fields, Hao Jiali shook her head and thought about going on like this, not to mention a pound of loaches a day, a few taels are not enough, Hao Jiali knows that she still has to use her body to pass the water.
