Gao Mingcheng has not planted sugarcane since the separation of the family. His family has a small population, and later he contracted Xiaofushan. Based on this, he does not want to plant sugarcane, and the village committee members cannot force him to do so.
However, before the family split up, he helped his family grow sugarcane. It was a lot of work and very tiring, and his skin was easily cut by the sugarcane, so it was really not easy.
Gao Mingcheng said: "Instead of letting the sugarcane rot in the fields, it is better to sell it on credit to the sugar factory first. When the sugar factory has money, we can give the money to the villagers."
This is a workaround.
Some people are inflexible and end up driving themselves to death, but as long as they are flexible, they can always get a break.
Gao Mingcheng remembers that this year, many factories could no longer operate because of triangular debts, and were even on the verge of bankruptcy.
However, some factory leaders were incompetent and could only allow the factories to go bankrupt; some factory leaders dared to think and work hard, held meetings, and mobilized employees to donate money to help the factories temporarily overcome difficulties.
The factory overcame the difficulties and survived, which also ensured the workers' jobs and interests.
But a wave of layoffs is about to come.
Gao Mingcheng suggested buying sugarcane on credit and borrowing money from workers to help the factory overcome difficulties. Gao Guobing seemed to be thinking deeply after listening to it.
He said, "I will bring it up at the next executive meeting."
The triangular debt problem is a major issue that affects many people across the country, but Gao Mingcheng has not experienced it personally.
His small business had good financial management and he owed no one anything and no one else owed him anything.
After breakfast, Gao Mingcheng did not stay long. Gao Guobing and his wife had to go to work, and he also had to go back to the clothing store to pick up the Chen brothers and take them back to Gaojia Village.
When they returned to the clothing store, the Chen brothers had already woken up and were rushing to help clean the store.
Little Xuxu also got up and was sitting in the stroller playing with toys. When he saw Gao Mingcheng coming back, he immediately reached out to him, indicating that he wanted a hug.
"dad……"
As soon as the vague word "Dad" was uttered, Gao Mingcheng happily picked up Xiao Xuxu and kissed Xiao Xuxu on the face twice. As a result, the beard that had not been shaved for several days hurt Xiao Xuxu's delicate cheeks. Xiao Xuxu stretched out his hand without any hesitation, trying to stop Gao Mingcheng's kiss.
Noticing Xiao Xuxu's resistance, Gao Mingcheng smiled and touched his beard. It was not long, but it was quite prickly.
"Why do you come back so late? You must be hungry. Go have breakfast!" Xuanyuemei came over and took little Xuxu from his arms away.
Gao Mingcheng walked towards the backyard while saying, "I had breakfast at Uncle Guobing's house. Um, did you buy some buns and fried dough sticks? Then I'll have some more!"
Gao Mingcheng picked up a fried dough stick, crunched it, and bit off a piece.
"Have Duofu and Duoxi and the others eaten?" he asked while chewing.
"I've eaten, but maybe it's out of politeness, I didn't eat much." Xuanyuemei said.
After Gao Mingcheng ate a fried dough stick and a meat bun, he prepared to return to Gaojia Village.
Before leaving, he hugged Xiao Xuxu again, and then said to Xuanyuemei: "I will be back in the afternoon."
"Okay." Xuanyuemei took the child and watched him leave.
Gao Mingcheng called Chen Duofu and Chen Duoxi to get in the car, drove the jeep to Xiao Jinfeng's transportation company first, and then changed to his tractor.
Although tractors are not as luxurious as jeeps, they are much more capable of loading cargo.
This time Gao Mingcheng wanted to bring a lot of things from Gaojia Village to the county, but without a tractor, he would not be able to load them.
When they returned to the county, Gao Mingcheng dropped the Chen brothers off at Xiaopo.
The Chen brothers held the porcelain they bought and kept thanking Gao Mingcheng.
Gao Mingcheng laughed and said, "Why thank me? Just be more careful while working!"
"I will work hard!" Chen Duofu said as if to assure you.
Chen Duoxi also said: "Brother Mingcheng, I will also help you do things well."
"Haha, forget it. Just lend a hand when you're busy. Okay, go back and have a rest, talk to your family, and then go do your work."
Gao Mingcheng waved to the two brothers and continued to drive the tractor to Niuweiling and parked it under the shade of a tree.
Three dogs immediately came running over from a distance and circled around him enthusiastically. This time the big yellow dog didn't seem so shy and came closer.
"Ming Cheng is back? We picked up a lot of eggs today!" Chen Dasong walked over here carrying a box of eggs. He usually picked up eggs twice a day, morning and evening, and could pick up about fifty to eighty eggs a day.
Adult chickens lay eggs frequently in spring and autumn, generally laying one egg a day, but this also has a cycle. The hen will stop laying eggs for about twenty days, and then start laying eggs again after a few weeks.
So even though Gao Mingcheng has a hundred hens, he can't pick up a hundred eggs every day.
Chen Dasong moved the eggs he picked up into Gao Mingcheng's main room, where there were already three or four hundred eggs.
"By the way, Uncle Chen, when did that big yellow dog come? Whose dog is it?" Gao Mingcheng pointed at the big yellow dog following the elf and asked Chen Dasong.
He was not at home every day, but Chen Dasong managed the chicken coop and Xiao Fushan for him every day.
Chen Dasong glanced at the big yellow dog and said with a smile, "I don't know whose dog it is. It came here three days ago and refused to leave after it came."
"Ming Cheng, you don't know that your Black Tiger and Elf are both well-known good dogs in this area. Some people will bring their female dogs here on purpose, and then take them back after the female dogs are pregnant. This big yellow dog may have come this way as well."
Gao Mingcheng was quite surprised when he learned about this from Chen Dasong.
But then I thought about it and felt it was normal.
Nowadays in the countryside, few dogs are sterilized, because villagers raise dogs to guard their homes, and they are not afraid of female dogs giving birth to puppies. Some people will buy good puppies and raise them, while ordinary puppies will become food.
In Gao Mingcheng's memory, eating puppy meat was popular in Gaojia Village in the 1990s. During festivals, people liked to buy a puppy to eat, and when distinguished guests came to visit, they would also choose to use puppies to entertain them.
Although the custom of eating dog meat here is not as popular as in Yulin, it is also well-known.
It is worth mentioning that people here usually eat puppy meat, and rarely eat adult dog meat.
In his previous life, Gao Mingcheng had no objection to eating puppy meat, but after raising black tigers and elves in this life, he could hardly eat it.
It wasn't something he had to eat, so Gao Mingcheng easily gave up on this delicacy.
He tried to touch the big yellow dog's head. The big yellow dog retreated warily at first, but finally let Gao Mingcheng touch it.
The big yellow dog is a female dog. Maybe due to malnutrition during pregnancy, her hair is a little rough, not as shiny and smooth as the black tiger's.
Although the black tiger is black in color, when it stands under the sun, its fur shines brightly like a piece of fine silk.
"I'll go to the mountains to get a few rabbits to feed you today, Dahuang. Don't be greedy and steal my eggs!" Gao Mingcheng warned while stroking the big yellow dog's head.
Dogs are intelligent and can understand what humans say.
Pregnant snakes will swallow eggs to supplement their nutrition. In fact, dogs will do the same, especially pregnant female dogs.
But the rules have to be set at the beginning. Dahuang can only eat it if Gao Mingcheng is willing to give it to him. If Gao Mingcheng doesn't give it to him and Dahuang eats it privately, that won't be acceptable.
Gao Mingcheng didn't care what the big yellow dog was called at first, he just called it Da Huang, and after telling it the family rules, he accepted it as a member of the family. (End of this chapter)
