Chapter 566 Raise as many as you can

The group arrived at Wadi Village without incident, but stopped the car outside the village.

The roads here are difficult to navigate and quite narrow. For safety reasons, these people carried their belongings into the village.

Lu Qiaoge and Shao Le brought schoolbags, notebooks, pencils, daily necessities, new clothes and shoes, and 100 kilograms of rice, etc.

Not all of them are given to the full warehouse.

There are other families facing similar difficulties.

Lu Qiaoge and Director Du said, "This is a small token of our appreciation from the subdistrict office. We hope you won't find it offensive and will distribute it to those in need."

I might as well give you a heads-up: if conditions permit, your commune encourages unemployed laborers to raise chickens, ducks, and geese.

Keep as many as you can.

The county will also bring in a batch of chicks and ducklings from the farm to sell to you later.

If you don't have feed, apply to the county government. Based on your actual situation, the county government will definitely give priority to your commune in approving feed.

Actually, your village has incredibly favorable conditions; if things are managed properly, it might just be able to turn its fortunes around.

President Du's eyes widened in shock.

He had heard about this before.

But he never received any definite news, and he didn't really believe it was true. The cunning and treacherous Old Zhu also wouldn't tell him the truth.

Unexpectedly, this time I actually got a positive response from Director Lu.

As long as Director Lu is there, this matter will definitely succeed.

However, he still asked with some concern, "As you know, our Weidong Commune is very poor, and the living conditions of the members are not good. If we spend money to buy chicks and ducklings, it's fine if we make money, but if we lose money, then they really won't be able to make a living."

Lu Qiaoge said, "There are risks in everything you do in this world. It's just a matter of how big or small. And since the higher-ups are encouraging you to vigorously develop the aquaculture industry, there are sales channels available."

At the very least, we'll buy large quantities of duck and goose feathers; we'll take as many as you can get.

Furthermore, the county will provide technical guidance and even corresponding epidemic prevention measures.

As for the exact profit margin, and what you can earn from raising a duck, you'll naturally find out after you've raised a batch..."

President Du listened intently from the side.

He knew that Brother Lu Qiao wasn't just saying it casually.

His heart pounded with excitement; he never imagined he would find out about these things in advance.

Therefore, their Weidong Commune still has development prospects.

There definitely is!

Otherwise, Lu Qiaoge wouldn't have made this special trip.

Of course, they also benefited from the full warehouse.

President Du said excitedly, "I will find Mancang and have him thank you in person."

Lu Qiaoge waved her hand: "No need, President Du, you made excellent arrangements and handled things very promptly. We are at ease."

Children also have self-esteem.

There's no need to always expect children to live with a grateful heart.

Just let things take their natural course.

Lu Qiaoge said, "The reason I came here this time is actually to see in person just how barren this wasteland is, and whether it is suitable for raising livestock."

President Du quickly asked, "Director Lu, do you think this place is suitable?"

Lu Qiaoge nodded with a smile: "This place is indeed quite suitable, so the trip was worthwhile."

If this place isn't suitable, then there's no suitable place.

——

After dinner, Lu Qiaoge was pulled aside by Meng Xia, who quietly said to her, "Didn't I tell you a while ago that someone introduced your sister to a potential partner? It's Song Shaowen, the younger brother of Deputy Director Song of the Third Steel Plant. Have you inquired about him? What's he like? What's his family like?"

Lu Qiaoge then remembered that she hadn't had a chance to tell her family about this family yet.

The main problem is that my sister doesn't have a clear stance yet.

She stopped being in a hurry.

Anyway, they're still young.

Moreover, if you can get into university, you should go to university, which means there is a possibility of change. Dating now also means that you may face marriage.

Therefore, if Lu Qiaoling isn't in a hurry, she naturally won't be either.

So they didn't mention the Song family's affairs, worried that if they did, Meng Xia would definitely be tempted.

After all, it's quite suitable from any perspective.

Song Shaowen, in particular, was transferred from the military last year and assigned to the power department of a military factory. He not only does a good job, but he is also a very handsome man.

These conditions perfectly match Meng Xia's criteria for choosing a son-in-law.

Meng Xia never hoped to find someone similar to Qin Hengzhi, because that was impossible.

The second daughter's approach to dating is not applicable to the youngest daughter.

I've also talked to my little daughter about it privately many times.

Lu Qiaoge said, "I did inquire about it. His family is quite well-off, and his parents are very sensible. They are in good health now and didn't come to the military factory. They are farming in their hometown, which is in the next county. However, their family lives in the commune's location, so their life is definitely good. His older brother is the old Song you mentioned. He is the deputy head of the factory's security department. You already know about Song Shaowen's situation, so I won't go into details. He performed well in the army. Qin Hengzhi asked about this, and the other party also has this idea. If Qiao Ling agrees, we can meet him, but it depends on Qiao Ling's opinion."

Lu Qiaoge gave an extra word of advice.

Lu Qiaoge hasn't checked out what this person is like in private.

If Qiao Ling didn't have this idea, she wouldn't have been interested in meddling in other people's private affairs.

Meng Xia said, "I asked her, and she said it's fine whether I meet her or not."

So you're not very interested?

Lu Qiaoge found an opportunity to ask Lu Qiaoling, "What do you think about the matter about the Song family that Mom told you about?"

Lu Qiaoling was organizing the registration forms when she heard this and her face turned slightly red. However, she said with concern, "Second sister, the conditions are actually quite good. I never dared to dream of such conditions before, but I'm just worried and don't feel at ease."

Lu Qiaoge asked curiously, "Why are you so uneasy?"

Lu Qiaoling looked at Lu Qiaoge for a long time before saying, "Look at all the disputes you've handled. They were all fine when they were dating, but things went wrong as soon as they got married. There were all sorts of messy things like in-laws, housework, children, cooking, social obligations, and work."

If I don't get married now, at most people will talk behind my back about how I'm a grown woman and still not married, wondering what's going on. But if I do get married, like to that Song family, it will definitely involve my partner's parents, his older brother and sister-in-law, and his two older sisters.

Unwittingly, my social circle has expanded to include a whole bunch of strangers with whom I have to maintain good relationships. Even if everyone says they're nice, what if my temper just won't allow me to get along with them? Then I'll have made a few enemies for no reason. Second sister, just thinking about it makes me feel exhausted and it's all so pointless.

Lu Qiaoge: "..."

What kind of thinking is this?

If you say she's unreasonable, then there seems to be some truth to it, but if you say she's right, then that's not the right way to think about it either.

What should Lu Qiaoge say then?

All she could say was, "If you think like that, marrying anyone will bring all sorts of troubles..."

Moreover, Meng Xia made a very good point.

These days, there are very few good young men who are single, so it's definitely not a bad thing to make a move early.
