Dashan Makes a Living 1984 - Chapter 212: 208: Difficult old lady
have no choice.
Wang Tianxiao had no choice but to continue to explain: “Anyway, it means that I will figure out a solution to the money problem. It can be regarded as an investment. When you make money, you can pay me back.”
Now, everyone understands.
But what followed was even greater worry, “Tianxiao, where did you borrow so much money? Besides, if we bought sheep, what if the sheep got sick and died? Wouldn’t it all be lost?” ?”
“That’s right, this is not a joke, Tianxiao.” Uncle Li Guanlin was also worried.
Li Guanping knew that his brother-in-law Wang Tianxiao was great, but Wang Tianxiao asked him not to talk too much at home, so he didn’t express his opinion.
Li Yaqin was very calm.
“Oh, mother, what are you worried about? Since my brother-in-law has already said that he wants to help you, why don’t you push and procrastinate? It makes people pay you and even speak good words to you. This is a big deal. ”
“Yaqin…” Qin Xiaoling was anxious.
“You guys, you don’t know how to be blessed even if you are in the midst of blessings. How come you don’t know how to be content when you have such a good son-in-law who is filial to you? Look at what my brother-in-law said, but you don’t know what to do.”
“Ha ha.”
Wang Tianxiao likes Li Yaqin’s temperament, she really can say anything, and she goes straight to the point.
He has a hearty personality that doesn’t look like a woman.
Li Yali saw that her sister had said this, so she helped her and said, “Mother, just listen to Tianxiao, you are not in good health, and you can’t run outside all the time. If you feel a little uncomfortable, you will have to wait for the hospitalization if you feel uncomfortable.” If you spend money, you will suffer yourself, and we will worry about it later, what do you think?”
It is also persuasion, Li Yaqin just speaks directly, but Li Yali speaks reason.
Briefly explain a few points.
Mother’s body is not suitable for continuing to herd sheep outside for a long time.
If herding sheep may cause physical discomfort, you will have to spend money in hospital if you feel uncomfortable.
If it is hospitalized, the children will feel distressed and worried.
After a set of comprehensive punches, Qin Xiaoling fell into deep thought.
At this time, Li Wanfu, who had been silent all this time, finally spoke: “Tianxiao, what kind of loan you mentioned just now, is it easy to get it, will it be troublesome?”
Men and women really have different concerns.
“It’s easy, as long as you agree to this matter, you don’t have to worry about the rest, I will help you solve everything, the only thing is to choose a place, I think the open space behind us is very good, close to home It is easy to take care of, and now the land is small, and it is difficult to cultivate the land.”
“In this case…” Li Wanfu looked at his wife and said in a deep voice: “Just listen to Tianxiao, the child is filial, so let’s not talk too much. Besides, what Lili said is right, you run outside all day , The body really can’t hold on, and I’m already sixty years old, it’s time to pay attention to my body.”
Qin Xiaoling saw that everyone persuaded her to accept, so she finally nodded.
“Then…or just listen to Tianxiao. Even I know how to do those things, what should I do?”
“Don’t worry, Auntie, I’ll let my elder brother come with you on this matter,” Wang Tianxiao looked at Li Guanlin, “I’ll help you implement the construction and lambs in the early stage, and you will be responsible for raising the sheep later. Brother, do you think it’s okay?”
“Okay, why not.” Li Guanlin was very happy.
No matter how you look at this kind of thing, it makes more money than him doing a small job.
The small workers in the early years were not as easy to make money as the small workers in later generations.
The wages are outrageously low, and because there are too many people working, you can’t find any decent work for a while, and you often just wait for a long time.
Wang Tianxiao invested in a sheepfold for them at this time, which was undoubtedly a great savior.
Can Li Guanlin be unhappy?
Even Gao Huanhuan rarely kept smiling without showing her mean face.
Then everyone discussed the specific details on how to implement it.
After this matter came to fruition, the atmosphere of the whole meal became much more active, and everyone unknowingly finished half of the food, and even the second plate of steamed buns was served.
Wang Tianxiao saw that Li Guanping was burying his head in eating, and suddenly smiled and said, “Apart from what I just said, the next big thing for us is about Guanping.”
“Huh?” Li Guanping didn’t swallow a mouthful of food, almost choked, and coughed frantically.
“What am I?”
He looked at Wang Tianxiao puzzled.
“Of course it’s a major event in your life.”
Wang Tianxiao said with a smile, “Look, this year has passed almost half a year. You are now nineteen years old, and you have reached the age where you can talk about marriage.”
“This…” Li Guanping didn’t expect Wang Tianxiao to eat melons all of a sudden.
I was a little shy for a while, and I froze stupidly, not knowing what to say.
However, this topic attracted everyone’s attention more than the topic just now. For a while, people stared at Wang Tianxiao with curious eyes.
“You and Xiaoqing have been together for so long, what is your impression of her girl?”
On the one hand, Wang Tianxiao is playing with Li Guanping, on the other hand, he still hopes that this matter can be implemented as soon as possible.
Get engaged, get married, and have a baby as soon as possible.
Late changes.
If something happens between them and Li Guanping marries the wife from his previous life, it will be really uncomfortable.
That almost sealed the fate of his miserable life.
“Brother-in-law…why are you talking about this?” Li Guanping was originally shy and honest, but now that he was placed on the chopping block, he really wanted to find a hole in the ground and crawl into it.
He didn’t know Wang Tianxiao’s painstaking efforts.
“Haha, aunt, uncle, didn’t I tell you about Xiaoqing before, Lili and I both thought that girl was nice and got along well with Guanping. That’s what I thought, find a good girl Days, let the two get engaged first, so as not to have long nights and dreams.”
“Well, what Tianxiao said is right, Guanping, the eldest sister also means the same thing, that girl Xiaoqing is so kind, if you can marry her, it will be a blessing accumulated over eight lifetimes.”
“Sister, why do you say that too?”
“Sister, brother-in-law, the Xiaoqing you mentioned is the one we saw last time?”
“Well, that’s the girl.”
“That’s okay, it’s really good.” Li Yaqin slapped her thigh and shouted to Li Guanping: “Li Guanping, such a good girl, you are not good enough, why are you so big-faced, are you a rich man or a prince?”
“Second Sister…”
Li Guanping didn’t know what to say.
He didn’t know why everyone suddenly turned their finger on him.
It made him want to defend for a while, but he didn’t know what to say.
Qin Xiaoling and Li Wanfu watched the children talk and were very curious, so Qin Xiaoling asked Li Guanping, “Son, don’t you like the girl your brother-in-law mentioned?”
“No.” Li Guanping replied immediately.
“Since you like it, why are you still hesitating?”
“I…” Li Guanping hesitated again and again, and said helplessly: “I’m still saving money. Even if she agrees to marry me, how can I support her? I don’t have a place to live, no savings, let the girl follow me Isn’t it a sin?”
After Li Guanping said this, the two old men immediately stopped talking.
The children don’t have the money to marry a wife. They say it’s the children’s problem, but in their hearts, it’s not that they don’t have the ability.
Wang Tianxiao took over the conversation and said with a smile: “Guan Ping, there is no need to worry about this matter at all, you are all working for me, and it is only a matter of time to earn these things.
However, what my brother-in-law means is that since Miss Xiaoqing didn’t look down on you because you were poor, and got along well with you, isn’t it worthwhile for you to set so many thresholds for yourself? ”
“Besides, whoever said that to get married, you must have everything before you get married. Take your time. You see, your sister and I were poor and had nothing when we got married. It’s getting better gradually. Days, Just go slowly, you are still young, don’t lock up the future.
More importantly, if you keep procrastinating, if the girl falls in love with someone else, you will lose everything. Let me tell you, with the experience and identity of a person who has been there, the relationship between young men and women is like a force. If you keep pulling, you can get food and shelter, but if this force is exhausted, it will really be gone.
Miss Xiaoqing has a very lively temperament, you have to grasp it, if the enthusiasm of others cannot be reciprocated by you, then…”
Wang Tianxiao gave Li Guanping a look that he could understand.
What Wang Tianxiao said made everyone stunned.
Even Li Yali looked at him curiously.
I think about myself as a man again, when did I study the relationship between men and women so clearly.
“Guan Ping, what brother-in-law said is right, you have to seize the opportunity. As for the things for the wedding, let’s say, let’s make it together for you. As long as you live a good life, we brothers and sisters, don’t worry. Don’t worry, don’t you think you are the eldest sister?”
Li Yaqin is a ghost, she was talking about her elder brother and sister, but the concluding remarks fell on the elder sister.
Because I know that my eldest brother is an iron cock, he doesn’t pull out a penny.
Talking to him is useless.
“Well, let’s find a way together. I have a good relationship with Xiaoqing, and I can intercede with you in front of her. If not, there will be your brother-in-law.” Li Yaqin laughed.
“Are you really in such a hurry?”
“Just tell me, do you like other girls?”
“Of course I like it.”
“Do you want to marry?”
“Yes I do.”
“That’s it,” Li Yaqin made the decision for him, “That’s it, mother, you can find Yin Yang to show Guanping a date, and make an appointment early… If you don’t want to make an appointment, you can just get married.”
“Guanping, is this okay?” Qin Xiaoling looked at Li Guanping.
Li Guanping thought for a while, and finally nodded with a smile: “OK.”
“Haha~”
Everyone laughed.
Have fun
Li Yali pinched her husband’s waist lightly under the table without using any force.
Wang Tianxiao turned to look at her, and saw his wife smiling like a flower.
She was really, really happy.
.
The next day, Wang Tianxiao brought Qin Shou back to the station.
Give it to Wu Wenhua to take it to work in the field.
Worried that this guy would rely on his old man for his old age, and would be picky eaters if he didn’t work hard, Wang Tianxiao arranged for a few dogs to watch by his side, and told him that if he didn’t work hard, the dogs would teach him how to behave.
Of course he didn’t believe that Qin Shou would suddenly become hardworking.
Dogs can’t change eating shit, it’s a person, and they won’t change at will.
It must take a long time.
Before returning yesterday, his mother-in-law specially called him in and asked him about Qin Shou. He was very helpless to hear him talk about the next plan.
Finally, I told him to be tolerant, and if something happens, don’t take it too seriously.
Wang Tianxiao responded with a smile and said that he did not want to worry his mother-in-law when he took in that guy, so there is no need to worry about it in the future. He will make all arrangements to ensure that Qin Shou will not cause trouble again.
Wang Tianxiao’s thoughts on Qin Shou have not yet fully formed, it all depends on how he behaves.
If the performance is okay, then let him live in the station for the sake of his wife and uncle.
But if he doesn’t know how to advance and retreat, there is a way, let him eat a pot.
After making arrangements for Qin Shou, Wang Tianxiao went to find Wu Ping and asked him to find a familiar construction team to help the mother-in-law’s family build the sheep pen as quickly as possible.
As for the cost, he will just come and pay.
Wang Tianxiao had never asked Wu Ping what to do, so Wu Ping got the information and attached great importance to it. He quickly arranged a team, Wang Tianxiao took him back, and made a match with Li Guanlin.
Because the prefabrication factory has ready-made prefabricated panels, they don’t need to be very complete. Anyway, it is to build a sheepfold, and it can be done well with some scraps. The only thing used is some red bricks and cement, which are provided by the construction team. Responsible for the purchase, keep every receipt well, and just settle the payment when the time comes.
During the construction process, everything else went smoothly, but when red bricks were used, it was discovered that the production capacity of the brick and tile factory in the town is relatively weak. .
Fortunately, it basically did not affect the overall process.
In the village, because the neighbors began to use electric lights one after another, the remaining people who did not have electricity were also envious. Gradually, most of them were willing to use electricity, and Wang Tianxiao’s original arrears were also collected.
Wang Tianxiao saw that the matter was going well, so he went to Wang Dabao to talk about the alfalfa field mentioned earlier.
The team went to the west side of the 50-60 mu of alfalfa land near Mijia Village, which had been left uncultivated. Wang Tianxiao originally wanted to contract it to raise sheep.
After building a sheepfold for his mother-in-law’s house this time, his interest in raising sheep has increased a bit.
Put this matter on the agenda again.
Wang Dabao had promised before that this land could be reserved for him. This time, he had nothing to say when facing the great hero who helped the team pull electricity.
One mu of land is ten yuan per year. According to the records measured by the village, the total is 60 mu.
Wang Tianxiao was also unambiguous, and directly paid the money for ten years in one go.
Originally, I wanted to pay for another 20 years, mainly because I have spent too much money recently, so I need to make some adjustments and slow down the pace.
After contracting the alfalfa field, Wang Tianxiao immediately made some chemical fertilizers to re-fertilize the alfalfa field to make the alfalfa grow better.
He is going to raise 500 sheep here, so he needs a lot of alfalfa, and he is also going to raise deer.
can be fed with alfalfa.
In addition, the mother-in-law’s family needs to raise 50 sheep, so it is estimated that they will also need a lot of alfalfa, which can also be supplied here.
Since relying on the mountains, Wang Tianxiao must develop the breeding industry, and in this era, the development speed of agriculture is faster than that of industry.
Aquaculture is an important part of agriculture.
There is a shortage of water in Qingcheng, and people here don’t like to eat fish very much, so there is basically no room for fish farming.
The rest is to raise chickens, pigs and sheep.
The benefits of raising chickens are too low. If you raise pigs, the living standards of ordinary people can’t keep up. It’s impossible to eat meat every day, so you can’t make much money.
And the cost of raising pigs is too high.
Pigs really need to be piled up with feed.
If feed prices and pork prices fluctuate, then raising pigs will not only make no money, but also lose money.
For many farmers who raise pigs, they don’t think about making money. They may have raised pigs for a year, only to find out that they didn’t make any money at all, and they just exchanged the money.
If it is said that what has fallen is a lot of pig manure.
By comparing, Wang Tianxiao set his goal on raising sheep.
Sheep are relatively easy to raise, they can be raised with feed and grass, and there is a custom in Qingcheng to eat mutton, so it is easier to sell.
In addition, Wang Tianxiao has a more important feeling.
He didn’t want to cause too much damage to the surrounding environment because of raising pigs.
Anyone who has raised pigs knows that pig excrement is fatal to environmental damage, not only water, but even air.
Every summer, countless bacteria will multiply in the pig manure, and the flies will block out the sky like mosquitoes. Looking at it from a distance, it is simply horrible and unbearable to look directly at.
That’s why the government gradually doesn’t allow many retail investors to raise pigs.
In recent years, the rural environment has gradually improved a lot.
Wang Tianxiao is a person who has experienced that kind of disgusting environment. Even if the government has not noticed the problem of environmental protection, he himself cannot pass this test.
Comprehensive comparison, raising sheep is the final choice.
The initial plan is to get alfalfa land, and the next step is to build a sheep house when the funds are in place. It is estimated that the building will be able to accommodate a thousand sheep at the same time.
And he also has his own ideas about the types of sheep.
At present, people who raise free-range sheep in the village are all sheep, because sheep can be eaten for meat, and can also be sheared for sale.
But Wang Tianxiao believes that the economic value of sheep is not as high as that of goats.
Therefore, he will raise a quarter of the sheep, and the other three quarters will raise all the goats.
And it’s a female goat.
Breeding is his initial stage, and later he still wants to develop the dairy industry.
At this initial stage, he temporarily does not know which direction he can develop best, so he needs to take a few more paths.
Continuously accumulate experience and constantly adjust according to the results.
In this era full of opportunities, since others can develop, why not him.
He didn’t know if this was a dream, but anyway, he felt that he needed to work hard and do more things.
.
Because there are few people and households in Mijia Village, all the electricity is spread out very quickly.
After a few days of not paying attention, it was completely powered on.
According to the original plan, the next step is to install a power distribution station for Wang Tianxiao’s station near the edge of the mountain in Mijia Village.
This was originally a delineated thing.
Mijia Village promised him rice grains, and the stationmaster Li of the power supply station also agreed, but unexpectedly, when the time came, another moth appeared.
It turned out that everything was fine and everything was in place.
But when the workers were about to start construction, they were stopped by an old lady in Mijia Village.
Originally, the power supply station wanted to solve it by itself, but I didn’t expect that the old lady wouldn’t let in oil and salt, no matter what you said, she couldn’t do it. After a few days, she just refused to agree.
Wang Tianxiao recalled this matter, and found that the progress seemed to be a bit slow. When he ran over to check the progress, he happened to see several engineering personnel packing up their things.
Among them, there was a construction worker who was in charge of the construction work in Wangjia Village before. Wang Tianxiao asked him why, and the man explained the reason.
“Look, Brother Wang, the old lady insisted that her wife was buried nearby, and if the soil was disturbed, it would affect the feng shui of their house, so they were not allowed to dig. Just yesterday, we wanted to dig secretly, Mr. The wife rushed up to fight us desperately, and almost killed us.”
“Is this the case?” Wang Tianxiao looked around and said curiously, “I didn’t see any cemetery around here. What does the old lady mean?”
“Isn’t it? His wife’s cemetery was bulldozed when the ground was leveled. Now she can’t tell where it is. Anyway, she doesn’t want us to move. You said that we are just a construction worker and have a relationship with the old lady. What’s the matter of dispute, if we hurt someone, then we can’t afford to walk around.
We are going to pack up our things and go back to see how the station master handles this matter. If we don’t handle it well, we won’t be able to come again. So much delay for a day will take a lot of effort. ”
The construction captain was very dissatisfied.
Wang Tianxiao remembered that this person had a pretty good temper, probably because he was so angry with that old lady, otherwise he wouldn’t have reached this point.
He thought for a while, took out a few ten-yuan bills from his pocket, and gave one to each of the captain and several brothers: “Several brothers, thank you for your hard work, see if this works, you do the preparations first, I will go to the Let the old lady see what’s going on, and see if she can be persuaded to stop making trouble for no reason, do you think this will work?”
“This…” Several construction workers were favored by Wang Tianxiao when they were in Wangjia Village, and they had a good impression of him. Now that each of them received an extra payment of ten yuan, they were simply willing to give him face. After discussing, it was decided to let Wang Tianxiao try again.
“Thank you guys,” Wang Tianxiao thanked them gratefully, and then asked, “Then do you know where that old lady’s home is?”
“Go straight ahead on the road in front of you, turn left at the second turning, and then keep going forward. The one with a huge walnut tree in front of the door is their home,” the construction worker told Wang Tianxiao, adding:
“But you have to be mentally prepared. That person is really difficult to deal with. She is completely unreasonable. I have never met such an unreasonable old lady.”
“Haha, let me try it.”
Wang Tianxiao thought to himself, what kind of old lady is so difficult to talk to? All the old ladies he has met seem to be difficult to deal with, but mother-in-law Qin Xiaoling seems to have a better temper.
No matter what, I have to try it anyway, and it is useless to think so much.
If it doesn’t work, see if you can give me some money and let it go.
