With the help of Wang Qiusheng's father and son, Wang Manyin was much more relaxed next, and he no longer had to rotate all day and night.

The countryside can't hide things.

Soon, another villager came to the door, and the meaning of the words was obvious, and they also wanted to inquire about coming over to earn a few cents.

Wang Manyin did not refuse directly, but just told the other party that he did not need manpower for the time being, and he would talk about it later.

Now the consumption of spiced melon seeds in the county is in a stable state for a short time, and it can sell more than 100 catties a day, and it is enough to have the help of Wang Qiusheng and his son.

As for expanding the business to other surrounding counties, he felt that the time was not yet ripe, and planned to wait for a while before considering it.

Again, safety is the most important thing.

It's better to walk slowly than to speed up.

In addition, as the road is familiar, Wang Manyin has to bring hundreds of catties of goods every time he goes to the county seat, which is enough for those vendors to sell for a few days.

In this way, I also save a lot of time and don't have to take the car every day.

Taking advantage of the fact that the morning was fine, he began to continue to level the yard of his house.

At the beginning of spring, Wang Manyin cut a lot of horsetail branches on the steep slope at the edge of the field, and sprinkled a lot of grass seeds, and then watered them with space water.

In just three or four months, the stadium has been surrounded by a green barrier. Among them, there are a few pink, snow-white, and pale yellow flowers, and the bees and butterflies dance on it, which is full of lively atmosphere.

Relying on the location of the pigsty, Wang Manyin opened up a vegetable field, in which all kinds of vegetables grew very vigorously, which made his family eat vegetables and save a lot of trouble, and did not have to run to his own field every time.

In another corner, he also weaves a fence with wattle cuttings, surrounded by more than a dozen newly hatched chicks and wild duck seedlings.

The eggs are laid by the hens, and the duck eggs come from the space.

Of course, Wang Manyin's external rhetoric was discovered by rhubarb from the bushes of the East Mountain Pass.

After all these years, the people in the village have long been accustomed to the magic of rhubarb. So except for a boast of good luck, no one will doubt it.

In fact, not only rhubarb, but even two cats are also the object of envy.

It's normal for cats to catch a bird, and it's not uncommon for someone else to raise it, and it's not uncommon to occasionally climb a wall branch to catch a sparrow dove or something.

But cats that can hunt pheasants are rare...... The two raised by Wang Manyin's family have such ability.

It's just that the two guys are more happy to go out hunting at night, so they are far less well-known than rhubarb.

When the people in the village saw that Wang Manyin raised a large number of chickens and ducks, they immediately followed suit. Seeing that Wang Manchu and others did not come forward to stop it, there were more and more people who hatched eggs for hens.

During this time, Wang Manyin went around the village, and he could often see hens leading a group of chicks chirping and gouging.

This kind of breath of life is rarely seen in the past decade.

As the days passed, Wang Manyin always paid attention to all kinds of information in the newspaper.

In this era, there are few channels for people to understand information, and newspapers are one of the most important ones. In the eyes of those who care, you can interpret a lot of things with just one article.

For example, the "Huangyuan Daily" published a speech by Director Tian Fujun, in which he talked about agricultural work at great length.

Wang Manyin immediately realized that his long-awaited tide of package production to households was finally coming.

In the evening, when Wang Qiusheng and Mao Dan finished their work and were about to leave, Wang Manyin stopped the two and asked if his family was willing to take over the consignment point.

Hearing this, Wang Qiusheng and his son were naturally surprised, and hurriedly asked why.

Although the bazaar has been opened, the consignment point is not open if anyone wants to. Everyone in the village knows that Wang Manyin has a good relationship with the family of Director Guo of the supply and marketing cooperative, so he can open a sales point for more than ten years.

Such a good errand, I don't know how many people envy it behind their backs.

How can it be cold, Wang Manyin doesn't plan to open a sales agency.

"Brother Qiusheng, you see the current situation of my family, every day when I open my eyes, I am busy without touching my feet, and I have to run to the county every three or five days, and the consignment point really can't greet me. Sometimes people in the village come to buy things, but they also have to go back and forth, so they want to give up the consignment point...... You go back and discuss it with your sister-in-law, if you want to, I will find the supply and marketing cooperative, it shouldn't be a big problem. ”

Wang Manyin recounted what he had said to his father-in-law before.

The reason why he wanted to give up to Wang Qiusheng's family was because of the close relationship between the two families. On the other hand, Wang Qiusheng and his son have been working for themselves for a long time, and they are willing to work hard.

There is a good opportunity, of course he thinks about his own people.

"Manyin, why don't you let your father-in-law open it?" Wang Qiusheng asked puzzled.

"My father-in-law will also open a sales agency in Shuangshui Village," Wang Manyin did not hide.

"Then I'll go back and discuss it with my aunt," Wang Qiusheng replied with some excitement.

Wang Manyin believed that the two of them would agree, but only told them not to spread the matter.

Although I can't look down on the profit of a few cents a day at the consignment point, it is still very tempting for others. If the news spreads in the village, it is estimated that the threshold of the house will be broken tomorrow, and it will be a trouble at that time.

As expected, as soon as the orchid was cooking on the fire in the early morning, Xie Dongmei came over to ask.

After receiving an affirmative answer, she immediately agreed.

I don't have to go to the city to deliver today, it's rare to rest.

After breakfast, Wang Manyin sent the orchid and the three children away, and then took the rhubarb into the mountains for a walk. When he reached the ditch where no one was around, he first released the two peregrine falcons, and then began to get busy in the space.

In fact, as the difficult days have passed, and various materials on the market have become more and more abundant, Wang Manyin's dependence on space has been greatly reduced.

So now there are very few crops in the space, and the only large area planted is cumin, which is one of the important raw materials for making spiced melon seeds.

As for peppercorns and star anise, Wang Manyin has no plans to increase the scale of planting. Mainly they grow from trees, and it takes many years to see benefits after planting, and it is too troublesome to pick.

In particular, the pepper tree is covered with thorns, and it will be pricked if you are not careful.

Cumin, on the other hand, can harvest seeds that year. And it's easy to collect fennel seeds, harvest the plants, dry them, and knock them a few times before they fall.

At present, Wang Manyin has four or five acres of planting in the space, and it is estimated that he can produce eight or nine hundred catties of cumin after one harvest, which is enough for a year.

It was almost two hours before he stopped to rest.

After taking a bath in the pool, he went into the scorpion pool to check on the inside.

As soon as I stepped into it, I saw the guys fleeing in panic. In the past ten years, the scorpions in it have been caught one after another, but the number has never decreased.

Now it is conservatively estimated that there will be tens of thousands.

After selling these scorpions, Wang Manyin planned to reduce the scale as much as possible in the next step.

In fact, this is also one of the reasons why he plans to give up the consignment point as soon as possible. With the arrival of summer, there is an endless stream of people selling scorpions every day.

Wang Manyin was busy frying melon seeds, and he didn't have time to greet people. Instead of occupying the pit and not, it is better to abdicate earlier and make way for Xian.

Seeing that the time was approaching noon, he didn't dare to delay, and hurriedly got up and returned outside.

When he returned home, he carried a hare with him as usual.

When I arrived at the door, I saw that the three children had already eaten a pack of biscuits.

He shook his head speechlessly, and didn't say much.

Compared with other children in the village, the three of them can be said to be born in a blessed nest. There is a consignment point at home, and the snacks have basically not been broken. But such a good day is coming to an end, and after the outlet is let out, they are not so comfortable.

Wang Manyin washed his hands, and Lisuo disposed of the hare. First put it in boiling water to remove the blood and remove it, then pour hot oil and ingredients into the pot, then stir-fry and pour in the hare meat......

After making braised hare for so many years, he is now quite good at cooking. A set of actions is like a cloud of flowing water, very much the style of a master.

Soon, the scent began to spread through the cave.

When the hare was almost stewed, the rice in the other pot was also simmered. Braised hare with rice, a beautiful wife eaten by a family of four.

In the afternoon, Wang Manyin took a snakeskin bag and spread it on the ground, and began to carefully select sunflower seeds.

***

Wang Qiusheng followed the fried melon seeds for more than ten days, and the basic heat has been mastered.

So when the father and son came over in the evening, Wang Manyin asked them to start work directly, and he carried a dried hare and rode towards the Shibijie Commune.

As soon as I arrived at the door of Director Guo's house, I heard the sound of quarrels in the house. Especially Aunt Guo, her voice is very loud.

Wang Manyin hesitated for a moment, and finally coughed twice and shouted loudly: "Uncle Guo, auntie, are you at home?" ”

The quarrel came to an abrupt end.

Immediately, the courtyard door was opened.

A young man wearing a bell-bottomed shirt walked out of it and said awkwardly, "Brother Wang, it's here!" ”

He is the second eldest member of Guo Chaowang's family, named Guo Weidong, and he is also considered to have grown up with Wang Manyin. After graduating from junior high school a few years ago, this guy refused to go to high school again.

At first, Guo Chaowang wanted to let his son go to college under the guise of a relationship. It's just that the number of places allocated in the county is too small every time, and he can't compete with others at all.

When the college entrance examination resumed the year before last, the recommendation to go to university became history.

Guo Weidong had no chance at all, so he was idle at home, and went to live at his grandmother's house in the county every once in a while. But although this guy is a little lazy, he is still a good person, and he has been running around in the county for all these years, and I haven't heard of poking any baskets.

"Man Yin is here, come into the house and sit!"

Seeing him, Guo Chaowang put a smile on his face. Liu Sufang hurriedly brought the tea box and poured tea.

"Uncle Guo, why did you and your aunt quarrel, I heard it outside." The two families have been friends for more than ten years, and Wang Manyin treats each other as elders, so he doesn't pay much attention to the questioning.

"It's a small thing, just don't talk about it." Guo Chaowang explained, and then changed the topic, "I heard recently that your fried melon seeds business is very good!" ”

"It's okay, I also watch others do small business, so I want to toss around."

"Your uncle is called blind tossing......" Liu Sufang immediately said.

Seeing her husband glaring at herself, she raised her voice and said, "What are you staring at me, Man Yin is not an outsider, what can't you say." Just give us an idea! ”

"Your uncle and I have been arguing for several days because of Dongzi's work. You know it's hard to find a job right now...... I just want Dongzi to take over his father's class, this old thing is dead and unwilling to quit! ”

In just a few words, Liu Sufang explained the reason for the quarrel clearly.

With the large-scale return of educated youths to the city in the past two years, jobs in various places have become very tight. Even with Guo Chaowang's ability, it is difficult to find a suitable job for his son.

Because of this, Liu Sufang thought about letting her husband retire early and replace her son to take over.

After hearing this, Wang Manyin shook his head again and again and said, "Aunt Guo, you made a mistake in this calculation. Uncle Guo is a cadre of the supply and marketing cooperative, and Dongzi can only be an ordinary worker when he takes over. The difference is too great, can it be the same? ”

At present, although children are allowed to take over their parents' classes in all aspects, if conditions permit, parents must be workers.

If the parents are cadres, they need to find a relationship to become a worker...... This is tantamount to lowering one's identity.

However, there are still many people who reluctantly turn into workers for the sake of their children.

Of course, decades later, most people who did so regretted it. Their pension alone is a lot smaller, not to mention other benefits.

On the other hand, the supply and marketing cooperatives will close down in a few years. Even if Guo Weidong participates in the work, it is estimated that he will be laid off.

It's not cost-effective to go back and forth like this.

After a pause, Wang Manyin said again: "Dongzi's work is not in a hurry, you can wait slowly." After two years of rest at home, maybe the policy will change again. At that time, even if Uncle Guo does not retire and find a relationship, he will definitely be able to enter the supply and marketing cooperatives as a worker. ”

Speaking of which, Guo Weidong is a little back.

In the early days, when management was lax, the supply and marketing cooperatives stipulated that each family could arrange one child as a temporary worker.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Guo Chaowang arranged his boss Guo Weihong to work in the county seat. As for his son, he originally wanted to find a relationship to fight for a university recommendation spot, but he didn't get his wish.

When I looked back and wanted this kid to enter the supply and marketing cooperative, the top began to be strict, and some places had even begun to remove temporary workers.

So Guo Weidong is now embarrassed. Unless he retires early, there is no way to arrange it.

"Man Yin, how can things be as simple as you think, originally you and Uncle Guo were not in a hurry. Two people in a family earn wages and can always support this unsuccessful. Not some time ago, there was a provision in our former West County that allowed each unit to report the situation of the children of its employees staying in the city, and then arrange to go to the countryside to become educated youths and settle in the queue. Our family has only one son, how can we bear to let him suffer......"

Although going to the mountains and going to the countryside has stopped last year, educated youth have begun to return to the city continuously.

However, the regulations are not the same in different places, and many places still follow the original set, because there are too many unemployed young people.

In addition, the return of educated youths to the city has caused more wolves and less meat in jobs.

The same is true in Yuanxi County, which constantly mobilizes the children of employees of various units to go to the countryside, and the county supply and marketing cooperatives have allocated a lot of places. Liu Sufang was afraid that once her son's identity was confirmed, he would no longer be able to be a worker, so he would be in a hurry.

In fact, it wasn't until two years later that such things stopped completely.

"Uncle Guo, I feel that you two take this matter too seriously. Now it is different from before, even if they go to the countryside, they should go through the motions, the management is very loose, and they will not really be allowed to participate in the production team. Uncle Guo should have read the newspaper, and now they are discussing the matter of dividing the fields into households...... As long as the fields are divided into households, there will definitely be changes. I can let Dongzi cut the queue in the Shibi Festival Commune, so that I can follow you by my side. ”

"If Dongzi doesn't want to stay in the countryside, he can follow me for a while."

Hearing this, Liu Sufang suddenly became interested: "Manyin, what are you letting Dongzi do with you, won't you also learn to fry melon seeds?" ”
