Chapter 21: Someone's Eyes Are Red
"Tractor driver!"
Father Luo rummaged through the small red book handed over by his son, which clearly read the driving certificate of the agricultural tractor, and the title page was engraved with the famous words of the instructor - the fundamental way out of agriculture lies in mechanization.
He couldn't understand these words, but he could recognize the black and white photos of his son, and the three words Luo Xueyun of Douda, with a smile blooming on his dark face, and said happily: "Our old Luo family can also have a tractor driver, and the ancestral tomb is smoking." ”
Luo Xueyun was a little embarrassed: "The tractor driver is not an official, and he is worthy of the ancestors." ”
The old man glared at him fiercely and said, "Do you know what it means to be a member of the Eighth Congress, who in the brigade doesn't know that it is difficult to get a driver's license, and you have to have cultural knowledge. ”
The Eight Officers are said to be a popular saying during the Anti-Japanese Period, and in the seventies and eighties there was a new interpretation, and the driver was one of them, not only a representative of professional skills, but also a symbol of status.
But what Dad didn't know was that the era of the Eight Masters had changed.
"Second brother, my second brother, why do you know how to drive a tractor!"
Luo Xueyun looked up and saw his younger brother rushing over.
This baby is a tired character, he can get money for helping Luo Xueyun pick vegetables and work, and he can do three days of fishing, two days of drying nets, and now he hears that Luo Xueyun can drive a tractor, but he is crazy about being courteous, and he can run away with a fifty-pound sack of vegetables.
"What are you doing here?" Luo Xueyun looked at his younger brother's performance, "It's coming out of the west today." ”
Luo Xuelei squirmed for a long time and refused to speak.
When the eldest sister, the second sister, the younger sister, and the eldest brother all came to see the freshness, the mystery was broken by a word.
"Second brother, why are you so capable, you can drive a tractor." Ignoring her image, she climbed into the car and said loudly, "Will you be able to take us into the city in the future?" ”
Luo Xuelei nodded violently on the side.
Luo Xueyun smiled dumbly: "It turns out that you are planning to do this, I thought you were really here to help the second brother." ”
"It's really helpful." The younger brother hurriedly said.
Many rural people, especially the older generation in mountain villages, have really lived in the ravines and ravines for most of their lives, and the county seat may have been the farthest and most prosperous place to go.
Not to mention the younger brothers and sisters, even the eldest sister and the second sister are very tempting.
Luo Xueyun agreed very simply: "Zhou Tian has little goods, let's go into the city together, set off at seven o'clock, play for half a day, and come back at noon." ”
He patted the body of the tractor and said with a smile: "Luo Lao Er's car picks up the car and sends it." ”
"Very good."
The younger brother and sister cheered directly.
Seeing this situation, Luo Xueyun couldn't help but smile, since this month, he has expanded the planting of cabbage, divided more than four acres of land into two rotations, and vigorously cultivated and harvested and recultivated.
Pay hard work, the harvest is also gratifying, the average daily sales of Xingui Nancheng Bazaar reached more than 600 catties, many individual restaurants have begun to purchase 30 catties and 40 catties a day, and even fried tofu with cabbage has become a fixed menu, called "Qingyun Baiyu." ”
Aside from the unsettled payment of the meat factory, the capital saved by Big Retail for Luo Xueyun alone is close to 500 yuan, which is still the removal of tractor fuel costs, the benefits to Huang Yulin, the meat, eggs and milk that are often bought home, and the jade waste transactions with Li Jiangbo from time to time.
Luo Xueyun himself is also after the food has improved, his cheeks are fleshy, his body is well-proportioned, and his size has grown, if he changes into bright clothes, no one will guess that he is a farmer.
He doesn't have wealth and doesn't return to his hometown, he still walks at night in brocade clothes, who knows who has low-level tastes, and has never boasted about how he is in the village, but he also doesn't intend to be rich, but deliberately pretend to be poor.
Facing the loess with his back to the sky, working hard and sweating, what is the picture, isn't it just that life is more comfortable, and the monastic life should be smooth.
In this case, what is it to drive a tractor to take your siblings into the city?
A few brothers and sisters, watching Luo Xueyun drive away on a tractor, their hearts fluctuated, and they didn't calm down for a long time.
When she returned home, Huang Xiu was still in bed and had not gotten up, and when she saw her husband coming back, she asked, "What's wrong, it's so lively." ”
Luo Xuefeng said impatiently: "The second child quietly got his driver's license and drove the tractor back. ”
Huang Xiu was shocked: "He can afford a tractor!" ”
", the tractor of the brigade, he can drive it himself."
Huang Xiu's eyes rolled: "These days, he runs to the county every morning, and he doesn't know how much money he makes selling vegetables?" ”
Luo Xuefeng frowned: "The second thief is very good, and he never pays in front of outsiders, but watching him cut meat and buy eggs home twice in three days, he should have made a lot of money." ”
"How does it compare to Cao Guoliang?"
"It shouldn't be as good as it, Uncle Guoliang is so shrewd, he has been doing this business for a long time, and he knows more people, and his family is the first to buy a bicycle in our brigade."
Seeing that the child seemed to be about to be woken up, Huang Xiu hurriedly lowered her voice and said, "Let's talk to your mother secretly, let her find out how much money the second child makes, if it is really profitable to grow vegetables and sell vegetables, our family can grow without two buckets of land." ”
Luo Xuefeng said: "How to sell it after planting, do you want me to run to the county seat in the dark every day, begging grandpa to sue grandma?" ”
Huang Xiu scolded: "Are you a donkey head, as the saying goes, fight tiger brothers, go into battle father and son soldiers, what do you and the second child say, a mother's womb comes out, for the sake of your father's mother, can you not pull the real brother if you are shaking?" ”
Luo Xuefeng scratched his head anxiously: "Didn't we rob Luo Wei's field and ruin his marriage, how could the second child's stubborn temper help me, staring at me at the dinner table was like watching a thief, and he didn't let me eat a bite of what he bought." ”
"Stupid and hopeless." Huang Xiu couldn't help but point, "You just whispered to your mother, the child sees that he is weaned, he wants to eat, he wants clothes, he wants to build a new house and divide the family, and he wants firewood, rice, oil, salt, pots and pans, you have a headache and you can't sleep well......"
Luo Xuefeng's eyes lit up and nodded solemnly.
……
After Luo Xueyun mastered the tractor by himself, he moved much more freely, and when he didn't need the tractor, he could even directly pick a place where no one was there and put the tractor into the storage space.
There is no way, the space of Jade Jian is too vast, with his shallow cultivation now, Shen Nian can't find the boundary at all, but it has become his exclusive warehouse, all treasures are hidden in it, take it and use it at will, and he is not afraid of being stolen when he walks on the road.
"Qingyun white jade vegetables are very hot in Nancheng, and in the past two days, many big restaurants and canteens have come to touch the situation, and it is possible to buy a large number of them."
The vegetable market is very busy, Xin Gui can't greet him alone, and his daughter-in-law Li Yuan often brings her son over to help in the middle of the morning.
Luo Xueyun did not easily increase the share, especially when the market for cabbage was not completely finalized, otherwise the sales volume would have been expanding in the future, and there would be no room for discussion on the distribution of benefits.
But he will not turn a blind eye to the efforts of Xin Gui's whole family, and often carry out double subsidies in cash and in kind in the name of rewards, so that Xin Gui can sell more and earn more, no worse than ordinary workers.
Luo Xueyun said with a smile: "If a single order exceeds two hundred catties, don't sell it to them directly, record their requirements first, and wait for me to decide." ”
The troubles of happiness, Luo Xueyun not only sighed.
It is true that the price of jade is relatively cheap, but Li Jiangbo can't get it every day, and it takes time for the jade spirit gathering array to produce spirit gathering liquid, and after a series of dynamic adjustments, Luo Xueyun can only shorten the cabbage cycle to ten days at the earliest.
The monthly output of more than four acres of land is about 48,000 catties, and it can be sold around 1,600 catties per day.
Luo Xueyun didn't want the popularity of Qingyun cabbage to decrease, so he had to ensure that new dishes were on the market every day, and he had to do what he could for large orders.
Xin Gui nodded and smiled: "I understand, we can't let the restaurant buy all our dishes, so that the vegetable stall can't be put on the table." ”
