It wasn't until it was completely dark that Wang Manyin's house finally fell silent.

He let go of the rhubarb before he was ready to make dinner.

With this guy guarding the door, you can make a good meal at night. At noon, I gnawed two corn nests and was not hungry at all, and my stomach was rumbling early.

I didn't say anything, catch two crucian carp and steam them, then fry a plate of eggs to be soft, stew some white rice, and eat a delicious meal.

In those days, there was no pressure cooker or rice cooker, so if you wanted to eat rice, you had to simmer it in an iron pot.

At first, Wang Manyin couldn't control the stewed rice, either the bottom of the pot was battered, or it was half-cooked.

Later, I found a trick, mainly to put more water. Wait until the rice is almost simmering, then scoop out the excess water.

I bought ten catties of rice before, but I didn't dare to eat it at all, and now there is not much left.

But don't worry, the experiment of cultivating rice seedlings has been successful.

Practice has proved that rice grains can really germinate, and the germination rate is not particularly low. According to Wang Manyin's speculation, the rice he bought from the black market was probably threshed by the farmer's soil method, so the germ retention rate was relatively high.

To this end, he deliberately divided a few points of land in the space to grow rice.

If nothing else, you'll be able to eat space brand rice in a few months.

After filling his stomach and cleaning up the pots and pans, Wang Manyin began to settle accounts under the kerosene lamp.

It's not that I don't know, but I'm shocked.

In one day, the consignment point earned nearly 20 yuan, plus more than 50 eggs. Calculate it, and it can be paid more than a dollar.

Of course, this is the reason for the first day of opening, and then it is estimated that there will not be so much.

I was too tired today, and after finishing the account, Wang Manyin went directly to the kang to sleep.

Recently, the production team has cleaned up the manure, and there is no early work to earn, so I can get up later tomorrow.

Wang Manyin thought it was very good, but as soon as the sky was bright, he heard the rhubarb screaming.

Then a voice came: "Full silver, open the door, I want to buy something." ”

"Wait, open the door right away." Wang Manyin got dressed speechlessly, opened the door of the cave, and suddenly a cold air rushed to his face.

No way, the customer is the Jade Emperor!

The person who came was Wang Yungang's mother-in-law, who said that she found that there was no salt when she was cooking in the morning, so she exchanged two eggs for half a catty of salt.

sent the other party away, and he lost his sleepiness, so he simply lit a fire to cook.

Breakfast is still simple, steaming a few nests.

As a result, as soon as the fire was lit, another villager from Ishikawa Village came to buy farm tools.

Wang Manyin could only hurriedly add a few handfuls of firewood to the stove, and then bring something to the other party.

In short, after having breakfast, four or five groups of people came.

After breakfast, Wang Manyin stayed with rhubarb as usual, and went to the production team to earn work.

When I came back from work, there were already a few people waiting on the side of the road below to buy something, and there was a group of children next to him.

They were afraid of rhubarb and did not dare to wait at the door of their homes.

Wang Manyin hurriedly bolted the earth dog to the dung heap and opened the door for everyone to come in.

Similar to the situation in the morning, there were constant calls at the door at noon.

There are also people who enter the cave and do not buy things directly, but come to the pot stove to see what Wang Manyin cooks.

He couldn't do it when he was depressed, but fortunately he didn't plan to do anything delicious.

They are all villagers in the same village, and he is not embarrassed to stop each other.

What's even more speechless, some old men and old ladies seem to really use the consignment point as a meeting place. They don't buy things and they don't leave.

Seven or eight people bask in the sun against the wall, and get together to chat about the ancients.

Wang Manyin didn't expect this situation at all.

In the evening, as soon as Wang Manyin picked up the rice bowl, the village horn sounded. Don't guess, there will be another conference.

He hastily drank a bowl of corn grits, then locked the door of the kiln, leaving the rhubarb to watch the house, and he grabbed a corn nest and walked while eating.

Turning over the deep ditch, I happened to meet Wang Qiusheng and his family.

After saying hello, the three of them walked towards the breeding room compound together.

After more than a dozen meetings, Wang Manyin already had experience. didn't move forward, but found a squatting in the back, chatting with the people next to him.

With Zhao Jianhai, a cadre stationed in the village, and the village party secretary and others taking their seats on the stage, the meeting officially began.

Wang Manyin originally thought that tonight would be another study meeting, but he didn't expect that after Zhao Jianhai made a few opening remarks, he said that the main purpose of this meeting was to welcome young intellectuals to the mountains and countryside.

"According to the instructions of the commune, this time we have divided ten intellectual youths in Jarzi Village, and when the time comes, we need to send people to the original West County to meet them, and after the meeting, each team will send a donkey cart...... In addition, the intellectual youth came to our jar village to cut the queue, which is XX's trust in us. We must take care of their lives......"

Listening to the voice on the stage, Wang Manyin's memory of later generations awakened again.

Isn't it? With the arrival of the prosperous era, it was this year that the intellectual youth went to the mountains and went to the countryside.

But it doesn't have much to do with him, just live your life well.

After the meeting, Wang Manyin left with the crowd.

Jar Village and Shuangshui Village together, four production teams, about more than 1,000 people. If you count the Ishikawa village on the other side of the mountain, there are almost 2,000 people.

It looks like there are a lot of people, but in fact, the spending power is very limited.

Just like he thought, everyone is just a temporary novelty to the consignment point, and there are very few people who come to buy things the next day. At night, before going to bed, I took stock of the account and only sold it for ten yuan.

If it goes on like this, after deducting the sideline money paid to the village, he is busy and doesn't earn any money for a month.

But Wang Manyin didn't care, he didn't open this consignment to make money, he just wanted to have a proper career.

No one is better than to be idle.

The key is that the door is a meeting place, which is a real headache.

Sugar cane is not sweet at both ends, so let's make it alive first.

After getting married, let the orchid guard the store at home.

Speaking of orchids, it has been two days since this outlet opened, and she has never been here once, so nine times out of ten she is embarrassed.

Wang Manyin originally thought that the matter of the intellectual youth cutting in the queue had nothing to do with him, but who knew that as soon as he fell asleep, he heard the rhubarb and shouted with Wang Lianshun's voice.

"Uncle Lian Shun, what are you doing, you can't wait for tomorrow to say something?" Wang Manyin had to get up, scolded Rhubarb, and then asked Wang Lianshun to come into the house and sit down.

"Man Yin, I just finished a meeting with the branch secretary. Tomorrow, I will send you a good job, and I will go to the former West County to pick up the intellectual youth. Count as a day's work, and count ten points. ”

"Uncle Lian Shun, why did you let me go? Why don't you send someone else. Wang Manyin hurriedly shook his head and said.

What a joke, what kind of work is this.

Yuanxi County is sixty or seventy miles away from Jarzi Village, and it is one hundred and forty miles away. If you go on the same day and return on the same day, you will have to leave before dawn.

In addition, it is said that it is easy to drive the donkey cart all the way, and when you go, it is easy to say, and when you come back, you have to pull the young intellectuals to salute, plus seven or eight people, and you can't get it to run.

In the weather of minus seven or eight degrees, he would rather lie under the covers than earn ten points.

Wang Lianshun also knew that this matter was a bit inauthentic: "Hehe, no way, who let you not get married yet." Besides, you used to run outside, you have seen the world, and you can talk to young intellectuals. Now that the village certificate is open, you have to go if you don't go. ”

After speaking, he took out a piece of stationery stamped with the official seal of the brigade.

Wang Manyin took it and looked at it a few times: "If the branch secretary doesn't follow, just me and Uncle Fu?" ”

"The branch secretary and cadres Zhao will go to the commune for a meeting tomorrow, don't go ......"

Now that the certificate has been opened, Wang Manyin has no way to refuse. What's more, because of the opening of the consignment point, he also inherited Wang Manho's love.

Send Wang Lianshun away, Wang Manyin hurried to sleep, and he had to get up early tomorrow.

Something bad happens, and I may have been tricked. Today, the fever suddenly reached more than 38 degrees, but unfortunately there are no detection reagents.

Get a preventive shot first, and if you break the update in the next few days, I hope you will forgive me.
