Chapter 418 Extra 1

Song Wei's menstruation stabilized, and Lin Zhen went to see the captain to talk about the pine nut processing.

The captain was a little skeptical: "If pine nuts aren't available everywhere and they're hard to chew, will anyone really buy them?"

Even their own people would just make some and fry them during the Chinese New Year.

Aren't pine trees everywhere? No matter how he thought about it, he felt that this was unreliable.

Lin Zhen: "But the pine nuts here are bigger, which is more advantageous than those in other places. Everyone wants to eat something good during the Chinese New Year, especially now that the country's economy has developed. Many city dwellers are willing to spend money to buy fresh food. Pine nuts are more fragrant than melon seeds, and it is also face-saving to serve them to guests during the Chinese New Year."

Listening to Lin Zhen's words, the captain gritted his teeth and said, "Then I'll go ask everyone. If everyone thinks it's okay, then let's do it!"

After all, the pine nuts are to be obtained in the form of a rural cooperative, so naturally everyone has to be notified.

Like the captain, many people think this matter is a bit unreliable.

"Pine nuts are so small, how many can you get from a pine cone? The pine cones are hanging high up, so it's dangerous to climb up the tree. How much do you have to sell per pound to make back your money?"

Lin Zhen: "It is definitely two or three times more expensive than melon seeds. Pine nuts can be sold in more affluent cities, such as Zhejiang Province and Beijing. I can help with the sales. You can give it a try.

If the result is good, after the sales channel is opened, everyone in our village will have an extra income. Maybe pine nuts will become our specialty. If the result is not good, it will just be a waste of manpower for a period of time. Pine nuts are free, but you have to be careful when climbing trees to pick pine nuts..."

After Lin Zhen expressed his thoughts, the captain also said.

"Lin Zhen is right. He does all this for our team even though he doesn't make any money. He does it for the sake of making our fellow villagers rich. Maybe we can give it a try!"

Someone raised his hand: "Captain, I'll follow this. I believe in Brother Lin Zhen. Even if we don't make any money, at most we'll lose some labor, but we'll get so many pine nuts for free. It's worth it!"

"I agree, too. Pine cones are readily available, and we country folk have plenty of strength."

More and more people are getting involved.

Afterwards, Lin Zhen handed over the home field to the team leader. He did not intend to participate in the production of pine nuts.

But he can cooperate with the brigade in the name of his own company and sell the pine nuts to other places.

Pine cones are picked in autumn.

The pine trees in the mountains near their brigade are all old and very tall. Some pine cones have fallen to the ground, but many have not.

Picking pine cones is still a bit dangerous. Not only do you have to climb very tall trees, but you also have to find a way to get the pine cones down.

It is also dangerous for people standing below. The pine cones falling from such a high place would be very painful.

Those in the village who are good at tree climbing have ropes hung around their waists. They climb up the trees with bamboo poles. After standing firmly, they tie ropes around their waists and tree trunks for safety, and then they use the bamboo poles to knock on the pine cones with confidence.

The people below put the backpack over their heads and listened to the banging sound of the pine cones falling and hitting the backpack. If it had hit their heads, it would have definitely broken open.

Song Wei also came, but watched from a distance.

Lin Zhen didn't let her go over there.

There were already two Lin Zhenkuans next to them. Xiongzai, who was much taller than Lin Zhen when he stood up, had a cloth bag hanging on his chest, which was filled with various foods.

It took out a big apple from the cloth bag with its claws, ate one and gave one to Song Wei.

Song Wei's legs were a little sore from standing, so Xiongzi climbed down sensibly and stretched out one leg and shook it to signal her to sit on it.

Song Wei touched the big fat bear.

"My legs are numb and I squeaked."

Then I sat on its lap with my back leaning against the bear's big, furry body.

She didn't do anything this time, she just came out for fun.

Her three-month-old belly had already bulged, and the whole family was very careful with her.

After all, I'm a little older now.

In just one morning, everyone's backpacks were almost full of pine cones.

There were no major accidents.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

There were some small ones, some of them were picking pine cones below, and some of them had their backpacks not worn properly and were hit.

Fortunately, it’s nothing serious.

Everyone returned with a basket full of pine cones, and everyone sat on the ground and started cracking the pine nuts.

They fry pine nuts every year. Some people fry them very well and control the heat well so that the pine nuts will not be burnt or undercooked.

They also know how to ask for pine nuts.

For several consecutive days, the entire Ping'an Brigade was busy.

When the finished product came out, the aroma of pine nuts lingered over the Ping An Brigade for a long time, and the children were so greedy.

After Lin Zhen settled Song Wei, he took Songzi away with the hopes of everyone in the Ping'an Brigade.

Before leaving, Song Wei went to see him off and put his hand on her slightly bulging belly.

"Come back soon. If you wait until I give birth before coming back, I'll beat you up."

"Don't worry."

Lin Zhen bent down and kissed her on the forehead, then left with the convoy.

This is Lin Zhen's fleet, and it is also the largest private transport team on their side. Most of the employees in the fleet are young people from their Ping'an Brigade, and they are also their pride.
