Chapter 274: Time is Money

"Time is money, efficiency is life"

When he saw that this sentence caused a heated discussion in the newspapers, Wang Manyin knew that the cold winter of the Loess Plateau had passed.

Spring is coming quietly.

Time is like flowing water, in the blink of an eye at the beginning of the eighty-third year, just after the fifteenth day of the first month (there were changes in the chapter the day before yesterday, after thinking about it, let's skip another time period).

Although the weather is still cold and swishing, Wang Manyin already plans to drive a four-wheeled tractor to the county seat to pull goods as soon as possible.

However, Orchid was a little worried: "Full of silver, we can only make a lot of money by selling melon seeds in Yuanxi County." There is no need to go to Huangyuan City to toss at all! ”

For more than two years, her mood has been up and down like a roller coaster.

On New Year's Day of the previous year, Yuanxi County asked each commune to elect "high-end households", and the standard was an annual income of 10,000 catties of grain or 5,000 yuan. In addition to wearing red flowers and "parading the streets", each household will also be rewarded with a "flying man" sewing machine.

Wang Manyin's five-spiced melon seed business was so big that he became the representative of the Shibi Festival Commune.

The process of parading the streets is very beautiful.

Gongs and drums are noisy, and firecrackers are ringing in unison. The red flag is displayed, and the crowd is crowded.

One by one, the "top households" rode high-headed horses and accepted the onlookers of the citizens. Their horses are led by county staff.

Among them, Wang Manyin received the most attention. After all, now "Lao Wang five-spiced melon seeds" has been regarded as a well-known trademark of the original West County, and almost everyone has eaten it.

Seeing her husband so beautiful, Orchid was equally happy. And you can get a sewing machine for nothing...... After learning the craft of tailoring, she always wanted a sewing machine. In order to keep a low profile a few years ago, the family has not bought it.

However, after just a year of glory, he was hit by a stick again.

When someone showed up at home with their papers, Orchid almost scared silly.

Fortunately, there was Runye's second father to say hello, and his man didn't have anything to do, but he was just notified and criticized.

Others, however, were not so lucky.

The vendor named Hou Si, who had been stealing the name of "Lao Wang Five-spiced Melon Seeds", was sentenced to five years.

In addition, in the past few months, various news in the newspaper has also made Orchid worry every day.

It wasn't until the end of the year that it gradually subsided.

She is really scared now, and she prefers to see her husband be safe.

It doesn't matter if you make less money...... In the past few years, his family has earned 30,000 or 40,000 yuan intermittently. Although some of them have to pay taxes, there are also a lot of them in their hands.

"It's okay, don't worry, I didn't analyze it for you. There will inevitably be twists and turns, but overall on the bright side! Wang Manyin could only comfort again.

He didn't rush to make a decision, but read the information in the newspaper before making a decision.

A few days ago, an article clearly stated, "Farmers are allowed to engage in long-distance trafficking by individuals or in partnerships," and "individual businesses and experts in planting and breeding in rural areas can hire helpers and bring apprentices."

To put it bluntly, things are back on track, not only are peasants allowed to do business everywhere, but they are officially allowed to hire laborers. Of course, there is a limit to the number of employees you can hire. Wang Manyin was able to return safely last year because the number of employees was within a reasonable range.

It was after reading the newspaper that Wang Manyin planned to expand the scale.

Anyway, he has been waiting for this day for several years, how could he be willing to miss the outlet.

After a few words of comfort, Wang Manyin bent over to decompress, gritted his teeth and began to turn the handle.

Burst, burst, burst...... I heard the sound of the machine, but I didn't see black smoke.

No way, this is a common problem with diesel engines.

In winter, the oil becomes viscous when it cools down, so you need to burn firewood to heat it before starting, and then add hot water to the car...... Even so, it often takes a few shakes to kick it in.

If you don't warm up well, half an hour may not work.

Wang Manyin had great strength, shook it more than a dozen times, and finally saw the chimney suddenly pulling black smoke.

Then, he cautiously drove onto the dirt road.

At this time, Mao Dan heard a voice coming. The other party grabbed the car and jumped and landed firmly in the car body.

A few years of driving career has turned Wang Manyin into an old driver who drives a tractor. If you encounter any small problems, you can fix them easily.

However, he was not in a hurry, and he was steady throughout the whole process, and he did not dare to be careless.

Four-wheeled tractors look convenient, but in fact they are more dangerous. If you're not careful, I'll give you some color and take a look.

In later life, Wang Manyin witnessed an uncle on the door almost lose his life. The other party has played with the machine all his life and has more than 20 years of driving experience, but he was not careful and lay in bed for more than half a year.

So not only did he pay attention to his own driving, but he also repeatedly told Mao Dan and Lai Baozi to be careful.

Almost an hour and a half, the two successfully arrived at the former West County seat.

Compared with two years ago, there are more small buildings built on both sides of the main street of the original West County. The clothes of the pedestrians on the street are also slowly changing, and the colors of their clothes are starting to become brighter.

Wang Manyin drove the tractor to stop in front of the warehouse door and honked the horn a few times.

Hearing the voice, Guo Weidong hurriedly walked out of the warehouse: "Brother Wang, you are here!" ”

Immediately, the three of them began to move goods into the warehouse.

After finishing his work, Guo Weidong spoke: "Brother Wang, there is a whereabouts of the small motor that asked me to ask." I specially contacted a friend who works in Wujiaohua, and if I don't have an industrial ticket, I will ask for a hundred dollars. ”

"Okay, give him ......" Wang Manyin agreed. Wujiaohua Wholesale Department is also a good unit, and now everything needs an industrial ticket. If you don't have a ticket, you can only find acquaintances to entrust you.

The hairy egg next to him was a little strange and asked, "Uncle Man Yin, what are you buying a motor for?" ”

"Didn't I tell you a few days ago, I plan to expand the scale of fried melon seeds and sell the goods to all counties and cities in the Huangyuan region...... In this way, you and Lai Baozi alone can't be busy at all. So I'm going to make a machine for frying melon seeds, and you guys will have it easy in the future! ”

"Stir-fry melon seeds machine, melon seeds can still be fried by machine?"

"Brother Wang, it's really fake, you can make a machine......"

Hearing this, Guo Weidong and Mao Dan were surprised.

"I'm capable of it, you'll know later." Wang Manyin had an unfathomable smile on his face.

The fried melon seed machine is definitely tall in the eyes of many people in this era. However, in Wang Manyin's opinion, this thing is no different from "one plus one equals two".

Now there is no electricity in the jar village, and Wang Manyin can't use electricity to heat the fried goods, so the structure of the fried melon seed machine to make is very simple.

Buy a large battery and install a small motor to connect the belt so that it can turn the drum.

As for the method of heating and frying, it is the same as before, and the coal is burned directly.

Once the fried melon seeds machine is made, Mao Dan and Lai Baozi only need to check the temperature of the melon seeds in the drum from time to time, and the workload is greatly reduced compared to before.

In addition, in addition to stir-frying melon seeds, you can also fry peanuts, chestnuts, walnuts and so on.

What's more important is that the efficiency is greatly improved, two machines, a day can easily fry thousands of catties. This allows you to increase production and keep yourself from having to hire more employees for a while.

After all, the eighty-two years have just passed, and the number of hired workers is still widely discussed.

After the discussion, Wang Manyin drove the four-wheeled car into the compound of the county supply and marketing cooperative, and followed Guo Weidong to his friend's house.

Just after two streets, the hairy egg at the end suddenly pointed to an alley and said, "Uncle Man Yin, look, is that person Wang Haiyang!?" ”

Wang Manyin turned his head to look and saw a group of young people standing more than 100 meters away.

They gathered together to smoke cigarettes, pointing at girls who passed by not far away, and whistling twice from time to time.

Among them, there is a young man wearing a dark green cotton jacket and an angry hood, which is Wang Haiyang, the second eldest of Wang Manho's family, who is currently working in the county fertilizer factory.

In the crowd, Wang Manyin also saw Jin Fu in Shuangshui Village.

What kind of thing is Jin Fu, Wang Manyin knows it too well...... Proper Shuangshui Village thief saint.

A few years ago, when I went to Huangyuan City to buy condiments, I happened to encounter Jin Fu and was arrested for stealing. This guy was tied to a telephone pole, his nose was bruised and his face was swollen, and he cried and called his mother.

Afterwards, Jin Fu still did not change, but when he returned to the village, he performed a stunt of stealing saints in front of many people: easily opening the door of someone else's house with a thin wire.

Since then, Shuangshui Village has only known where the money earned by Jin Fu comes from, and he is usually far away from this family. However, when Jin Fu's parents learned what their son had done, they were not ashamed but proud.

The two set up a stall in the Shibi Festival Bazaar, specializing in selling all kinds of new ready-to-wear clothes that their son "took" from other places, and the business has been very hot recently.

Wang Manyin never expected that Wang Haiyang would be mixed up with such a bastard thing. It's like an old birthday star hanged himself, and he was impatient.

I had the impression that it wouldn't take long for Jin Fu and his parents to be arrested.

Wang Manyin can also be regarded as watching Wang Haiyang grow up, since he has encountered it, of course he will not care.

He immediately turned his head and rushed to Mao Dan and Guo Weidong beside him: "Let's go, let's go over and have a look!" ”

The three of them walked towards Jin Fu and the others with a big grin, and as soon as they walked forty or fifty meters away, they immediately aroused the other party's idea.

A young man with a sharp beak and monkey cheeks opened his mouth to remind: "Brother Jin, someone is coming!?" ”

"Who......" Jin Fu turned his head, his face changed slightly.

As for Wang Haiyang next to him, he shrank his head even more, wanting to hide behind others.

Jin Fu took a few steps forward and greeted with a smile: "Brother Wang, what a coincidence, I didn't expect to meet you in the county seat!" ”

For Shao'an, his brother-in-law, he knows too well.

They are really powerful, strong and strong, and have killed wild wolves with their bare hands. In particular, his family fed three earth dogs, and he is the nemesis of thieves.

There was an accomplice who targeted Wang Manyin's money, but as soon as he touched the door, he was bitten by three dogs and cried for his mother.

What's more, people know a lot of public people.

So Jin Fuming knew that Wang Manyin made a lot of money in the melon seed business, but he didn't dare to make up his mind.

"It's quite a coincidence," Wang Manyin responded with a smile, and shouted in the crowd: "What are you doing, see us hiding, come out quickly!" ”

"Uncle Man Yin, you have come to the county seat," Wang Haiyang knew that he couldn't hide, and walked out with a sad face.

Without waiting to ask, he took the initiative to explain: "I'm resting today and wandering around the county with my friends......"

"What is there to visit in the county, come with me, I have something to look for you!" Wang Manyin didn't wait for the other party to say more, pulled it up and turned around and left.

Jin Fu stood next to him and smiled, not daring to say more.

On the other hand, another young man felt offended, and immediately rushed out and said, "Cao, who are you, you are so bullish, I will go with you when I say I will go!" ”

Wang Manyin ignored the other party and turned his head to look at Jin Fu.

"Old five, don't say a word, people are the uncle of the ocean. It's normal for uncles and nephews to meet and catch up. Jin Fu was afraid of a conflict between the two sides, so he hurriedly stopped his companion from continuing to speak.

Seeing that the other party was so interested, Wang Manyin also saved face.

"That's right, our uncle and nephew finally met once, and we must whisper something. By the way, Jin Fu, I just remembered that I have something to look for you. Let's take a step to speak. ”

After walking out of a distance, without waiting for Wang Manyin to speak, Jin Fu had already taken the initiative to say: "Brother Wang, we won't look for Wang Haiyang again in the future!" ”

"Well, that's for the best." Wang Manyin nodded and watched the other party return.

Wang Manyin originally planned to go on errands, but after seeing Wang Haiyang, he changed his mind and decided to teach this bear child a good lesson.

Seeing noon, he simply took a few people to the restaurant to ask for a private room, and ordered a few meat dishes and a bottle of liquor.

After drinking two glasses, Wang Haiyang said: "Uncle Manyin, I just played with them, and I didn't do anything illegal......

"The phoenix does not enter the crow formation, and the cattle and sheep do not enter the fox herd. Learn from the good guys, and learn from the witches...... Don't you know what Jinfu is? ”

"All year round, I ran around outside, talking about doing business, doing business as a thief. This kind of person, do you think it can last a long time? Sooner or later, I'm going to have to eat in prison. If you're unlucky, it's possible to eat peanuts! ”

Wang Manyin is not to scare the other party, he remembers clearly that Yan Da (non-typo) will start this year.

"And you just whistled at the girl on the side of the road, that's hooliganism...... If you get serious, you will also be shot in jail. Afraid that the other party would not know the seriousness of the situation, Wang Manyin specially emphasized.

"Can't you? Uncle Manyin, let's whistle and dance together. Wang Haiyang replied in disbelief.

After listening to him, Wang Manyin felt more and more serious about the situation, and hurriedly asked: "Just dancing, didn't you do anything else?" ”

Now that the mouth has been opened, all kinds of unhealthy tendencies have become popular. In the name of dancing, many people secretly do all kinds of things. This wave of people is also the target of focus.

"I haven't been with them for long...... Someone wanted to open my eyes, I was scared, I didn't go! Wang Haiyang's face turned red and he stammered and replied.

Wang Manyin breathed a sigh of relief and said, "You'd better not go, otherwise it's too late to cry!" ”

"It's also illegal to dance?" Guo Weidong asked in surprise.

"There are some things that you can't say once you get involved. Like Hou Si and a group of people pretending to be us to sell melon seeds, do you say that it is a big deal? Wang Manyin asked rhetorically.

Hearing this, Guo Weidong understood.

There are many things to do for the four offenders, and there are more than 10 in total: shortages of catties and pounds, forgery of documents, cheating and abduction, illegal transportation, changing hands for profit, profit-seeking, soliciting relationships and giving gifts, and bribing and soliciting ......

Everything is afraid of seriousness!

Wang Haiyang also knew what happened to Hou Si, and immediately shuddered: "Uncle Man Yin, I really didn't do anything." You say, you won't really get into trouble then, right? ”

"You kid will go to work honestly in the future, stay away from those dog meat friends, and you can't follow the nonsense no matter how much you shout...... Think about your family when you encounter something. ”

It should be said that Wang Manyin feels that he is benevolent and righteous.

Looking back, this kid is really in trouble, and he can only blame himself for not being angry.
