Lin Chaosheng paused for a moment and then said, "Then shall I tell you both about my plan?"
The brigade leader, Village Chief Lü, originally thought that a meeting would be held to discuss the plan to raise Angora rabbits, but it turned out that Lin Chaosheng already had a plan. This was like a pie falling from the sky!
"You already have a plan?" Village Chief Lü and the brigade leader exchanged a glance and said cheerfully, "That's wonderful! Tell us about it!"
"My plan is to first find a few elderly women in the village to take care of these Angora rabbits. Then, we'll take a longer-term view and sell the rabbit fur in Huadu or Longcheng!" Lin Chaosheng said, becoming more and more excited.
Village Chief Lü and the brigade leader exchanged glances. Village Chief Li asked uncertainly, "Take it to Huadu or Longcheng to sell? This... isn't this a bit too unrealistic?"
Lin Chao slammed his hand on the table, startling Village Chief Li and the brigade leader, who leaned back. "We only live once, shouldn't we give it our all? Are we just going to live this impoverished life forever?"
Upon hearing this, Village Chief Li and the brigade leader immediately stood in awe and applauded Lin Chaosheng, saying, "Well said! We can't let our village remain like this! Not only for our own sake, but also for the sake of our future generations, we can't stay this poor!"
"Moreover, I am very confident that our Angora rabbit fur will sell very well!" Lin Chaosheng said, patting his chest.
After hearing this, Village Chief Lü and the brigade leader nodded happily. "We believe in you, Chaosheng. You are the most capable person in this village. We will unconditionally support whatever you do in the future!"
Lin Chaosheng bowed gratefully to Village Chief Lü and the brigade leader, saying, "I am truly grateful for your support. I would like to trouble you two to help me find a few elderly women to manage the Angora rabbits."
When Village Chief Lü and the brigade leader saw Lin Chaosheng bowing to them, they quickly stepped forward and each took one of his hands. "No need to be so polite. We'll go find you some helpers in a bit. If you need anything else in the future, just come to us."
"You two have really gone to so much trouble!" Lin Chaosheng was very grateful to Village Chief Lü and the brigade leader.
"Let's start first thing tomorrow morning. I'll go to the broadcasting station now and send out a notice so we can select people to manage these Angora rabbits later." Village Chief Lü got up to prepare for action.
"Yes, yes, go and announce this notice to everyone now, so that some people won't be out of bed early tomorrow morning," the captain said.
When Village Chief Lü arrived at the broadcasting room, he skillfully turned on the speakers. "Now, we're broadcasting a notice: we need to select ten women aged between thirty-five and fifty to manage the breeding farm. They must be hardworking and able to endure hardship. Two meals a day will be provided. The registration location is at the entrance of the production brigade. You can register at eight o'clock tomorrow morning."
A group of elderly women were chatting at the village entrance, and they immediately started discussing it after hearing the broadcast.
"A livestock farm? Our village could afford to open a livestock farm?"
"Who knows if there will be any wages? It's just two meals a day."
"Let's go check it out first, just in case it's really good news."
Seeing that Village Chief Lü had already informed everyone, Lin Chaosheng bid them farewell and went home to rest.
That night, Liang Mei lay in bed and asked Lin Chaosheng what he had gone out to do that night.
Lin Chaosheng gently touched Liang Mei's cheek, "Take a guess?"
Liang Mei knew that Lin Chaosheng was trying to tease her again, so she said, "Tell me if you want, or I'm going to sleep if you don't."
Then she turned her back to Lin Chaosheng, closed her eyes, and prepared to sleep.
Lin Chaosheng quickly put his arm around Liang Mei's waist and said, "I'll talk, I'll talk. I plan to ask Village Chief Lü and the brigade leader to help me find some capable women to manage the Angora rabbit breeding. In the future, I will sell the Angora rabbit fur to Huadu or Longcheng."
Upon hearing that the goods were to be sold to Huadu Longcheng, Liang Mei immediately became excited: "Can we really sell things in such a high-class place?"
Lin Chaosheng smiled and said, "People have to be bold. Besides, if we can't sell them in Huadu or Longcheng, we can have the old lady make all sorts of gloves and hats out of the rabbit fur and sell them at the supply and marketing cooperative."
Listening to Lin Chaosheng's grand plan, Liang Mei felt extremely admiring. "Chaosheng is so lucky not to marry you!"
Seeing that it was getting late, Lin Chaosheng gently patted Liang Mei's shoulder. "It's the luckiest thing that I was able to marry you. Okay, let's go to sleep first, otherwise you'll be sleeping in again tomorrow."
Liang Mei gave a shy but angry rebuke, then closed her eyes and went to sleep.
The next morning, Village Chief Lü announced over the loudspeaker: "Fellow villagers, you can now go to the entrance of the production brigade to register for jobs at the livestock farm!"
Upon hearing this, everyone flocked to the entrance of the production team, eager to see what kind of farm it was.
Lin Chaosheng was seen shouting at the entrance of the production team with a large microphone: "Our village is about to open a Angora rabbit farm. We will sell the Angora rabbit wool. Everyone will be provided with two meals a day and a monthly salary of 1.5 yuan."
After hearing what Lin Chaosheng said, everyone burst into surprised discussions.
"What the heck? One dollar and fifty cents a month?!"
"And they even provide two meals a day!"
"But who can afford to raise rabbits? We humans are already struggling to get enough to eat, let alone raise rabbits?"
"Yeah, Lin Chaosheng is a real braggart!"
"I think you're just jealous of him. What hasn't Lin Chaosheng accomplished?"
"That's right, none of you should report it, let me report it. When you see me getting paid, you'll be green with envy!"
"Who the hell is jealous of you guys? Don't let me end up working for free and then not even know where to complain!"
"Never mind them, Chaosheng, give me a name first!"
"Hey, sign me up too!"
Some older women rushed to sign up, while others stood aside with their arms crossed, watching disdainfully.
"Don't rush, don't rush, let's register names one by one!" Lin Chaosheng busied himself as he saw the elderly women swarming around him.
"Choose me first, Chaosheng. I used to raise hens, so raising this little rabbit will be a piece of cake for me!"
"Pick me! Pick me! I'm the most hardworking person, and I don't eat much anyway!"
"Can you leave me a name too, Chaosheng? I raised several kids in my family all by myself, so raising rabbits would definitely be easier for me!"
Lin Chaosheng, standing in front, was dizzy from their noise. "Can you all line up and speak one at a time? I really can't keep up!"
