This trip turned slowly and leisurely, and the afternoon time was almost over.

Before going home, Zhang Xiaodong went to Tailor Feng's house in the village and spent 60 yuan to buy several sets of women's cotton clothes and pants to wear outside.

Yan Ruohua was brought back from the outside, and she didn't have any other clothes and dowry, except for the red wedding dress when she got married yesterday, the aunts only prepared a few close-fitting linings, and there were no particularly thick clothes.

After all, I haven't experienced much of the cold on the mountain, and after going out like this morning, the tip of the little girl's nose is frozen red. couldn't bear to watch such a clean and beautiful little face freeze out, Zhang Xiaodong didn't care if he looked good or not, he took the warmest clothes.

When he rode a tricycle into the yard, Xiao Nizi was directly stunned.

She swears she's lived so long and hasn't seen so many ...... Potatoes with sprouts.

"That, I've made mashed potatoes, but I've never made so many of them......" Yan Ruohua said weakly. But she didn't dare to say that the potatoes had sprouted and could not be eaten.

Maybe in the mountain villages, these potatoes are cheaper and can be eaten. If she says she won't eat, will she seem too pampered?

"Who said to do so much? You can eat better than a pig. Zhang Xiaodong joked, "And you can't eat these sprouts, the potatoes made at night are in the cabinet, could it be that you love to eat potatoes with sprouts in the city?" ”

"Phew." Xiao Nizi chirped, "Then what are you doing with this cart of potatoes?" ”

"This is for planting, the field of wild grass you cut this morning is used to grow potatoes."

Zhang Xiaodong replied while spreading out a few woven bags on the ground and putting all the potato seedlings on them.

Hey?

Yan Ruohua tilted her head, digesting the answer. Suddenly, she thought of something, and hurriedly went into the house to get a pen and a small notebook and came out, as if she wanted to remember something seriously, but Zhang Xiaodong was stunned for a moment.

"What are you doing here?"

"Ah, I'm not an accountant, seeing that you bought so many potatoes and came back, I'll keep our company's accounts." Xiao Nizi said decently.

"Oh, that's right. That, spend 60 dollars today. Zhang Xiaodong said casually.

"Hmm...... 60 bucks. Xiao Nizi remembered, "The project is...... Potato seed ......"

"Hey, don't be mistaken, 60 yuan is the money to buy clothes, and these potatoes don't cost money." Zhang Xiaodong interrupted with a smile.

"No...... Don't want money? ”

Xiao Nizi was a little surprised, and couldn't imagine how Zhang Xiaodong did it.

However, when she saw the bag of clothes in the tricycle compartment and knew that the 60 yuan was not spent on the purpose of starting a business, but to buy clothes for herself, she felt a little painful.

I spent 40 yuan to buy noodles this morning, and now I have spent another 60 yuan to buy her clothes, and the family has spent 100 yuan at once, and they only have 665 yuan in total.

Xiao Nizi couldn't sit still all of a sudden.

"Oh, if you buy it, just buy one, why do you buy so much, go and return it, we still have to do big things!"

Looking at Yan Ruohua's image of a thrifty housekeeper who does not match the image of a girl in the city, he felt a little cute, and he said righteously: "As a founding member of the company, your welfare is the top priority of the company's corporate culture.

Moreover, as the saying goes, if you don't spend money, you won't make money, this boss has already planned, compared to this money, you are still ready to create greater value for the company! ”

Looking at Zhang Xiaodong's serious appearance, Yan Ruohua thought so.

For dinner, although Zhang Xiaodong was teaching him by hand, Yan Ruohua, a newcomer to the earthen stove, was still full of loopholes, and his face was stained with a layer of black ash. But in the end, a complete mashed potato was made, and the two of them ate it with a little pickle, and they also ate it with relish.

……

Early the next morning, Zhang Xiaodong went to borrow Zhang Teng's tricycle as usual, and then returned home to load all the potatoes, and then put Xiao Nizi on top of the potato pile, and set off to farm.

At the same time, according to Zhang Xiaodong's plan, Gong Xia also took the opportunity to sell herbs in the village and embarked on the road to Shetang Village on the other side of the mountain.

This is also the reason why Zhang Xiaodong must pull Xiao Gong's sister-in-law into the gang.

Because she had reached an agreement with the village chief Wang Shan before, the land was confiscated, so although she returned to the village, she could still freely enter and leave the town, and no one would stop her, and there were not many people who could do this. However, the people in the village will not envy her, because the life of Sister-in-law Gong is the most bitter one.

Therefore, if she can go out to match, Zhang Xiaodong's plan really won't work.

In the morning, Zhang Xiaodong and Yan Ruohua were busy in the field for a long time, Yan Ruohua was responsible for cutting down the remaining weeds, and Zhang Xiaodong was responsible for plowing the ground and turning the soil.

Zhang Xiaodong was afraid that Yan Ruohua would be really tired, and he was afraid that she would be uncomfortable, so he only let her work for half a day, and she was not allowed to come with her in the afternoon.

At noon, he sent Xiao Nizi back to the house, lit the fire and cooked, and made a little more by the way. Then he went to Zhang Xiaohu's house and changed to his family's three wheels, and on the way out of the village, he secretly went around to Xiao Gong's sister-in-law's house, left some food for the bedridden Daqing brother and uncle, and then went to the field alone to continue working.

In the evening, Xiao Gong's sister-in-law hadn't come back yet, so Zhang Xiaodong did the same and went to take care of Brother Daqing and Uncle Daqing and settle them properly.

When he did this, he actually agreed with Xiao Gong's sister-in-law in advance. Because a trip to Shetang Village opposite, the journey is indeed a bit far, and no one can say when they will be able to come back.

……

And just like that, another two days passed.

In the past two days, Zhang Xiaodong still repeated the same rhythm every day as he went to open up the wasteland on the first day.

From the very beginning, every time Zhang Xiaodong left the village, he would come to watch and drink the lottery, but they gradually lost interest and began not to pay attention to this matter.

After all, fools really can't move every day, they are too persevering, and they can't understand their cool words, and they don't mean anything to play the piano to the cow.

And Zhang Xiaodong is also satisfied with their progress, after three or four days of combing, the two and a half acres of flat land on the slope are finally beginning to bear fruit.

The sprouted potatoes have been put aside for a few days, and they have gradually reached a state where they can be sown. Zhang Xiaodong also cut the potatoes and prepared to go into the soil.

However, at this moment, with the sound of Wulong Wulong, a small tractor drove directly into the wasteland below the Beishan Col!

This sudden sound really startled the little girl who was engrossed in digging the potato nest!

On the tractor sat a middle-aged man he didn't know, and Xiao Gong's sister-in-law who was waving to him. And in the body pulled behind the tractor, there are a number of gastrodia larvae!

This is also what the two of them said at the beginning, due to the large range of slopes, the number of gastrodia seeds needed is also large, in order not to let the villagers find out, when the time comes, Xiao Gong's sister-in-law will directly pull the seeds into this field.

Looking at the excited appearance of Xiao Gong's sister-in-law, and the surprised expression of Xiao Nizi who stood up, even after experiencing the more important moment of the company's listing, Zhang Xiaodong also had an indescribable excitement in his heart.

Now, it's basically done!

Zhang Xiaodong knew that in the upcoming wave of the times that swept their mountain village, he had at least got this ticket to get on the bus.
