…
After coming back from the beach, Qiao Qingqing said she had a headache.
At first I thought it was nothing and that it would be fine after a short rest.
But in the afternoon, Qiao Qingqing's headache became more severe, so she had to ask Yao Xiaoman to buy medicine for her.
The village pedicurist asked her to get a packet of headache powder, saying that taking it would relieve her headache.
At that time, drug control was not strict, and there were not many concerns even about administering medication to pregnant women. The public had not yet formed the perception that pregnant women needed to use medication with caution and avoid using medication as much as possible.
Qiao Qingqing took advantage of this opportunity and easily got the headache powder.
In the winter, when the weather was cold, Qiao Qingqing said she wanted to go to the county town for an inspection and buy a quilt for making medicine, so she took the team's ox cart to the county town.
On the way, I chatted with the deputy captain and Accountant Zhou about the brigade's sideline business operations in the past two months.
"Now every household can earn dozens of yuan, and everyone is happy! Qiao Zhiqing, this is all thanks to you. Although they don't say it, everyone remembers it in their hearts!"
There are currently three fishing teams in the fishing village, each with ten boats. You can imagine how much they catch.
Once upon a time, the whole village could live a good life by fishing, but later private trade was prohibited and it became difficult to make money.
Qiao Qingqing took bold action and got in touch with Liao Yifan. For example, the supply and marketing cooperative in the county town purchased seafood from Heyu Village and then sold it to the whole county, and even supplied the supply and marketing cooperatives in the city. So everyone's life improved at a speed visible to the naked eye.
This has led to the current prosperous spirit and optimism in the entire fishing village.
However, Qiao Qingqing poured cold water on them at this time.
"There are so many villages along the coast. Our village can fish, and so can others. Accountant Zhou, deputy captain, now we should think about how to develop sales channels."
But her words were a little difficult for the two of them to understand.
From their perspective, it is very difficult to get in touch with the supply and marketing cooperative. If people from other villages can do it, they will not let Qiao Qingqing be the first person to try it.
Especially the deputy captain, he is about the same age as Zhou Aiguo. People of this age are more inclined to play it safe, fearing that after making a mess, not only will they not gain anything, but they will also lose their current way of making money.
So the deputy captain tried to comfort him, "Qiao Zhiqing, are you overthinking it? The only fishing village near us is Hele Village, and further away are other small towns. Fishing there is not as convenient as ours, and their reputation for fishing was not as great as ours. Besides, we have a good cooperation with the supply and marketing cooperative, so there is no need for the supply and marketing cooperative to change its partner."
"No, I think what Qiao Zhiqing said is very right." Zhou Jianbin was the most educated young man in the village after all. Although he didn't understand at first, after thinking for a while, he vaguely understood.
Qiao Qingqing nodded at Zhou Jianbin. "Accountant Zhou, you should remember that before I went to Beijing last time, I told you that if you don't find more sales channels, Hongsheng Seafood will face problems such as price cuts and squeezed living space in the future. And my trip to Beijing also proved that there is a chance to sell Hongsheng Seafood to other places."
Zhou Jianbin praised: "I think we should try more."
"But the cost of transportation..." the deputy captain frowned.
Qiao Qingqing smiled and said, "That's what I wanted to say. I know a few friends whose situations are similar to ours. They also have to travel occasionally. As the deputy captain, I can't usually help with anything. It just so happens that I have the conditions for transportation, so I will be responsible for this in the future. However, it may take three to five months or even half a day to travel out. After all, they can't travel out of town often."
As soon as these words came out, the deputy captain immediately said gratefully: "If you can really help me, Qiao Zhiqing, then everyone in our team will owe you a favor!"
Although Accountant Zhou, who was driving the ox cart, did not raise his head and his expression could not be seen, his tone was full of excitement and gratitude.
"Qiao Zhiqing, my father is right, you are the lucky star of our team!"
Qiao Qingqing hurriedly said that she was not worthy of it.
"I'll discuss this with the captain later. If he agrees, we'll have to do it as soon as possible. I'll have to go out of town in the spring at the latest. Otherwise, my belly will get bigger and I won't be able to walk."
The deputy captain thought for a moment and said, "Qiao Zhiqing, where are these friends of yours from? Can you introduce them to us? It's not convenient for a woman like you to travel far away. It's better to let Jianbin deal with them."
Qiao Qingqing is less than two months pregnant. She has to carry the baby for ten months and then breastfeed the baby. It is not suitable for her to travel far for at least one or two months, so the deputy captain suggested that Zhou Jianbin be responsible for this matter.
"Alas, I want to, too." Qiao Qingqing smiled bitterly, "I'm not afraid of you knowing that these friends of mine... are people I met in the black market."
I thought both of them would have strange reactions, but to their surprise, they looked calm.
It seems that these honest-looking villagers have also been to the black market.
Well, life has to go on. If you have no money, you can only sell eggs and seafood on the black market.
Even if the country doesn't allow it, you can't starve or freeze yourself to death just to obey the law!
"These friends have been fooled before, so they are very cautious. I have mentioned what you said before, but they are very determined and don't trust anyone except me. Even during this period, I have talked to them, but they never gave in and even seemed a little angry with me. That's why I had no choice but to tell you that I should do this."
