Mr. Zhou picked up a piece of mushroom with chopsticks, put it in his mouth and tasted it. He said in surprise: "This mushroom tastes good."
Zhou Yong immediately perked up: "Yeah, I think this mushroom tastes good too. I tried it at Comrade Jiang's house at noon, and it was really fresh and tender!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Hu Zi excitedly said: "Uncle Jiang's cooking is delicious, and there is meat!"
Zhou Yong followed up by saying, "Comrade Jiang is so polite! He even went out to buy meat just to entertain us."
Zhou Weiguo immediately glared at him: "It's good that you know it. Don't go there when you have nothing to do in the future. Don't cause trouble to others!"
The domestic economy is not good enough nowadays, and every household is living a tight life. Treating people to a meal costs a lot of money.
Comrade Jiang lives in the countryside, where conditions are much more difficult than theirs. How could he possibly grow old and cause trouble to others?
Zhou Yong nodded in shame: "I know, I definitely can't keep causing trouble for Comrade Jiang."
He doesn't have the nerve!
How ridiculous it is to always go to other people's homes for free meals?
Zhou Yong quickly added, "Today, the cadres from their commune visited their mushroom house. I see that they are quite satisfied. I guess it won't be long before Comrade Jiang and his team can get a loan to expand their cultivation.
I brought some mushrooms back today and sent some to the train station cafeteria. If they like them, they might come back to buy more."
Mr. Zhou nodded and said, "These mushrooms taste good. If the quality is good, it's also a good purchase."
Zhou Yong immediately said, "That's what I thought."
Meanwhile, in Red Star Village.
Jiang Shixun's family was also having dinner, but their meal was much more sumptuous than Zhou's.
After dinner, Tang Yulan excitedly asked Jiang Shixun, "Brother Jiang, will the loan be approved soon? If everyone in the village grows mushrooms, we'll definitely make a lot of money."
Jiang Shixun smiled and nodded: "Well, the loan will definitely be approved. When the time comes, we will pull the wires first, and then we can use the electric fan at home in the future."
The weather is getting hotter and hotter. Tang Yulan is quite fat, so she is particularly afraid of the heat. Sometimes she can't stand it when it's too hot. Unfortunately, there is no electricity at home, so she can't use an electric fan, so she can only use a hand fan.
When electricity is available in the future, we will be able to use electric fans and freezers at home.
When Tang Yulan heard this, she couldn't help but feel excited.
Sure enough, the next day, Tang Xinghua and Chen Jianshe obtained approval from the commune leaders and went to the bank to borrow money. Then they went to the power supply bureau and got electricity to the village.
People from the power supply bureau came to the village to investigate and came to help them lay the wires two days later.
Jiang Shixun was so excited that he ran to buy an electric fan and a freezer, so that he could use them as soon as the power was turned on.
He also wanted to buy a TV, but Tang Yulan wouldn't let him. She felt that buying too much at once would be too conspicuous and she was worried about being targeted. Compared to the fan and freezer, the TV seemed less important and could be bought later.
Jiang Shiyun and Jiang Shiyi also had the same idea, but Jiang Shixun didn't buy it.
With the electricity, the whole Red Star Village has become noticeably different.
On the night the electricity was connected, lights were turned on in every household, unlike before when it was pitch dark at night.
However, everyone was only excited for one day. By the second night, fewer lights were on, obviously because people were reluctant to use electricity.
Jiang Shixun didn't care. He believed that once the mushroom business took off, everyone wouldn't feel so bad.
