"You coward, just talk about things, how can you pick and choose at every turn." Before his nephew could finish speaking, Wang Manchu had already reprimanded him.

"That is, everyone will control the electricity in the future." Wang Xiuzeng followed suit.

After a pause, he said to everyone again: "Let's say that the electricity bill has been increasing in the past few months, which is caused by some people unconsciously. Haven't you ever thought that wool is on sheep? When you use electricity, you don't say anything, and you pay too much for electricity...... And the face is noisy? ”

Things hadn't been clarified before, and he was afraid of being besieged, so he didn't dare to express his opinion.

"I wonder if Haitao has overcharged for electricity...... It's very simple, let's wait and look at the numbers on the meter, and wait for tomorrow morning to count again, and we will probably know how much electricity is used in a month. ”

"That's a good idea, I agree." Wang Haitao immediately said.

He was not afraid of crooked shadows, and he really didn't deduct anything from the electricity bill...... Even if you want to adjust the meter secretly, you have to be able to.

"That's it, let's all disperse, and the workshop will be ready to work in half an hour." Wang Manchu said to everyone.

"Slow down, don't panic, listen to me about something." At this time, Wang Haitao shouted again to stop everyone.

"Someone in the village asked if I could put on the TV, but I refused. After all, the monthly electricity bill has to be shared equally among each family...... A few days ago, I just asked the township electricity management office, and now individual users can also install electricity meters for 50 yuan a piece. Whoever has installed an electricity meter can use electricity casually at that time, and there is no need to be afraid of overcharging for electricity. ”

If you want to say that there is no TV in the whole village, everyone has lived like this, and it is good to have a radio to listen to.

Later, Wang Manyin's family bought a TV, and many people felt that the radio was not fragrant.

If you don't watch it for a day, you always feel that something is missing in your heart.

Especially the broken babies in the village are even more fascinated by this one. Often before it gets dark, they start urging Maodan to put on the TV.

At night, the dirt road at the entrance of the village was full of people, and there were at least two or three hundred spectators.

Even if it is minus seven or eight degrees in winter, everyone's enthusiasm is still undiminished.

With so many people watching TV, it is inevitable that something will go wrong.

Those broken babies often sit in front and make trouble, which makes the adults very annoyed. In addition, some people sit too far back and look at the screen very blurry, which is naturally a little uninteresting.

So not long after Wang Manyin's house bought a TV, some people in the village moved their minds. It's just that because of the problem with the meter, they didn't do it for a long time.

In fact, if you want to buy a TV, many families in Jar Village can afford it now.

This is also related to Wang Manyin.

Like Mao Danxiao, the couple both work in the workshop, and their monthly salary adds up to more than 100 yuan. Save for three or four months and easily buy a TV.

If you change it to other people in the workshop, it will be more than half a year's salary.

Now when I heard Wang Haitao say that everyone can install an electric meter, some people are immediately tempted.

The increase in the number of TV sets in the village is also a good thing for Wang Manyin, and he can watch TV at home in the future.

In addition, after a while, it is likely that the Jar Village will be electrified during the day.

As the number of roasting machines continues to increase, the batteries originally prepared by the workshop are no longer enough. Wang Manyin could only buy a new walk-behind tractor, and the two burned diesel fuel together to generate electricity during the day.

This is not the way to go.

Not long ago, he applied through the township, hoping that the county power plant would be able to supply electricity to the village during the day.

No accurate reply has been received from the county power plant, but it should not be a big problem.

The matter was settled, and Wang Manyin took his mother-in-law home.

As a result, they didn't walk a few steps before they were stopped by Wang Haijun.

"Uncle Man Yin, Aunt Orchid, is there still a shortage of manpower in your factory now?"

"There is no shortage for the time being, but the next step will be to recruit people. What's the matter, do you have relatives who want to come over? Wang Manyin asked the other party. For the sake of Wang Manho's face, he will definitely give a place.

"It's not a relative, Xiaoqin wants to go ......," Wang Haijun replied a little embarrassed.

He is the principal of the primary school in Jar Village, and the "Xiaoqin" in his mouth is his mother-in-law, who is also a teacher in the school.

Orchid was surprised and said, "What do you two think...... Being a primary school teacher is quite leisurely, and you don't have to be exposed to the wind and sun every day, how can you suddenly want to quit it? ”

You know, the rest of the village doesn't have a chance to do it yet.

"The key is not to make money...... Auntie, you know, Xiaoqin and I are both private teachers, and the monthly salary is too low. I'm a little better a month, I can have fifty dollars. The violin is only twenty-eight pieces of six. The key salary is not paid in time, and it is owed for three or four months ......"

In the end, Wang Haijun was helpless.

Wang Manyin didn't expect that he would bring such unexpected results to the high wages he gave to the workers.

He has a clear understanding of the situation of the teachers in the primary school in Jar Village.

In the early years, there was also a public teacher teaching in the village, and later he was transferred to other places because of his connections. Now there are seven or eight teachers in the school, all of whom are private.

Of course, there are two types of private teachers. In the case of one system, two-thirds of the salary is paid by the county and one-third is settled by the village.

The other is a substitute teacher, a salary that can only be borne by the village.

It's better to be like Jar Village, where the substitute teacher is the same as twenty-eight yuan a month. In other villages, the conditions are poor, and only 20 yuan is paid.

This treatment is actually quite good.

He can earn more than 300 yuan a year, which is much better than digging food in the soil of the sufferers.

However, the exception is the village of cans, where the salaries of primary school teachers are almost half lower than those of workshop workers. No wonder Aunt Wang Haijun wants to come to work in the workshop.

This is certainly not normal.

Wang Manyin is clear: children are the future of Jar Village.

In this era, school is not so much, as long as you are admitted to university, you should be able to find a good job.

If the teachers in Jar Village quit picking their ropes, the children in the village will have a fart future.

With great power comes great responsibility.

Wang Manyin has always kept this sentence firmly in mind.

Otherwise, he would not have built a bridge for the village, built a library for the school, and even paid for eggs, so that the broken babies in the village could eat one boiled egg every day.

In this case, it is better to donate some money every year, and by the way, improve the treatment of the teachers of the primary school in Jar Village.

It's not much, even if it is a salary increase of ten yuan a month, it is also my own heart.

"Okay, we'll talk about it then." Wang Manyin gave an ambiguous answer.

The matter of donating money needs to be discussed with Orchid when he returns home.

Wang Manyin has always been like this, but whenever it comes to major matters, he has never made decisions alone.

After such a toss, it is almost time for the workers to go to work.

Now Mao Dan helps manage the workshop, and Orchid is mainly responsible for the accounts.

Wang Manyin is much more relaxed, and he can be a shopkeeper.

He checked a few bags of packaged products, made sure there were no problems, and turned back home.

Soon, Wang Manyin carried a large wattle basket on his back and led the rhubarb into the Dongshan Pass.

After more than ten years of growth, the forest of the second team of Jar Village has now completely become a climate. Acacia elm trees with thick bowls can be found everywhere, and various shrubs almost fill the cliffs and ditches.

As a result, the entire Higashiyama Pass became a paradise for wild beasts.

The animals wander around almost every day, bringing back their prey from time to time to show off to their owners.

When the package was delivered to the household, except for the pepper tree, the rest of the trees were not divided into individuals. When Wang Jinjun became the new captain of the second team, some people muttered that they wanted to divide the tree, but they were rejected when they reported to the township.

So at present, this forest still belongs to the collective property of the production team, and is temporarily guarded by Wang Yanqiang. Usually, families can cut grass and shrubs, pick up some branches and burn fires, but they can't cut the roots.

In addition, Wang Yanqiang's management is relatively strict, and no one dares to destroy forests and steal trees.

In fact, not only this forest, but also some of the land in the production team is also relatively vague...... For example, self-reserved land and pig feed land. This is a product of more than ten years ago, and it stands to reason that after the package is delivered to the households, it should be taken back from the village for redistribution.

However, since the township did not mention it, the villages also chose to ignore it.

The reason is simple: self-reserved land does not need to pay public grain.

Wang Manyin did not come to Dongshan Pass to hang out, but planned to cut grass and feed the forest musk deer.

Now his family raises six forest musk deer, three males and three females.

The latest three were not caught from the wild, but bought by Wang Manyin from the Provincial Institute of Zoology. He learned a few years later that as early as more than ten years ago, the Provincial Institute of Zoology had begun to try to breed forest musk deer in captivity.

In recent years, the breeding technology has gradually matured and officially promoted to the province.

Wang Manyin was in a hurry...... By the way, I also bought a few related breeding books, planning to pretend. There is space for water, and forest musk deer are generally not likely to get sick.

He was going to wait another half a year, and after the autumn, he would build a few sheds in the pimple ridge, and then move all the forest musk deer over to breed.

Thinking about things in his heart, Wang Manyin entered a cliff ditch. Shielded by bushes, it disappeared directly with rhubarb in situ.

Immediately, a man and a dog appeared in the space.

Over the years, rhubarb has come and gone to the space I don't know how many times, and it has become very indifferent.

Surrounded by lush greenery.

Wang Manyin stood at the edge of the woods and looked out, and the whole person was completely blocked.

There was no way, since he was no longer in charge of the space, the grass and trees near the spring had risen wildly. A lot of artemisia grass and thatch can be as tall as a person, which is simply difficult to walk.

Fortunately, Wang Manyin knew that there were no large beasts in the space, otherwise he would be afraid to be afraid of being in such an environment.

After identifying the direction, he took out his machete, cut and cut, and quickly cleared a path.

Twenty meters away, a ditch appeared in front of him.

This ditch was dug intermittently by Wang Manyin in the early years, about three meters wide, half a meter deep, around the space for a week, there are about twenty or thirty acres of land in the center, which are connected by many small ditches.

This is also the heart of the space.

As the land continued to grow, Wang Manyin was no longer in the mood to dig trenches, so the peripheral plants grew naturally.

The water is clear and flows slowly, and many fish swim slowly.

Hearing movement on the shore, these guys panicked and fled not far away, causing a splash.

Wang Manyin had no interest in catching fish, and continued to swing his sickle to cut the road.

It wasn't until he walked forty or fifty meters away with the rhubarb that he felt his vision widen.

A variety of wildflowers bloom, during which bees and butterflies dance.

The knee-deep weeds stretched into the distance until they turned into yellow earth completely.

Wait a minute...... When did a pond appear here?

Seeing the pond that suddenly appeared in front of him, Wang Manyin was a little dazed. He remembered that he hadn't seen it when he entered the space some time ago.

The whole body of water is about four or five acres in size, with many fish swimming in the middle, and the surrounding shore is covered with moss and tender grass, and you can see the droppings left by hares.

The bottom of the water is clear, with only a few aquatic plants, which should have just formed.

Wang Manyin went to the water's edge to take a closer look, but found no new springs. By the time he walked around a bush, he finally found the cause of the pond...... The other end is connected to the main ditch.

It is believed that the new growth area is relatively low, and the ditches are burrowed by eels or crabs, which eventually causes water leakage and collapse, forming new ponds.

There is a new pond, and more than a dozen acres of green grassland can be added to the space.

However, this did not have much impact on Wang Manyin......

After mowing a large basket of grass, he was about to call rhubarb back.

Turning his head, he saw that this guy had quietly arrived near a bush, and suddenly jumped around.

Giggle......

Soon, a pheasant holding a nest was bitten to death.

***

Since Wang Haitao said it, in just half a month, the people of the jar village have installed more than a dozen watches. Obviously, these are all in mind.

Mao Dan came directly to the door and wanted Wang Manyin to help get a TV ticket.

In this regard, Wang Manyin did not refuse.

While you still need a ticket to buy a TV now, it's no longer in short supply this year. Two years ago, a TV ticket could be sold for hundreds of dollars. Since the beginning of the Chinese New Year, the price has shrunk rapidly, and one can only be sold for more than ten yuan.

If you have a way, you can get it without spending money.

Now the real sought-after is the color TV ticket, which can be sold for four or five hundred yuan each.

Wang Manyin found Liu Qingli, and it was easy to get a black-and-white TV ticket.

Two days after it was handed over to Mao Dan, the young couple bought back a TV.

Immediately afterwards, Wang Yanqiang's family also moved back to a 14-inch one. This guy opened a repair shop in the Shibi Festival Market, and his business has been booming, and he has saved a lot of money in his pocket.

In addition, Wang Laixi often goes to the county seat to buy parts, and it is normal to get tickets.

However, after the people in the village knew that Wang Manyin could get a TV ticket, some people came to ask for it.

In this regard, he could only refuse, and even said that there were no more votes.

In fact, with his relationship with Liu Qingli, it is nothing to get a few more tickets, the key is that this opening cannot be opened.

I also need to continue to give favors to others.

The reason why he got tickets for Mao Dan was mainly from the workshop to make fried goods, and people have been following him to do things, and he works hard every day. As a veteran-level employee, it is natural to receive preferential treatment.

In fact, if the people in the village really want to buy a TV, it is not difficult to get a ticket, it is nothing more than spending more than a dozen yuan.

Just like Wang Manyin thought.

Soon after, Wang Junxiang's family also bought a TV.

So far, the number of TVs owned by Jar Village has reached four.

When the people in the village learned about it, they all envied Wang Junxiang's good life.

Just like that gambler, it's strange to be able to save money. If it weren't for the rivalry between the mother-in-law and the son, the family might not be able to afford a TV in another ten years.

Liao Xiaokai can make so much effort to buy a TV, mainly for his son Wang Weihua.

The eldest son has reached the age of engagement, but his husband is famous for gambling. Now that I have a TV at home, I can also look wealthy, so it is better to find my mother-in-law.

There were a few more TVs in the village, and the number of people who came to Wang Manyin's house to watch TV immediately decreased by more than half.

After all, his family lives in the village, and it is not convenient to come and go.

Homeopathically, Wang Manyin finally moved the TV home.
