Chapter 111 Wang Shunming
When Zhao Yi heard his mother say this, he nodded. This way he could earn a few dozen more yuan during the New Year, and also get a reward for feed.
When we raise piglets next year, they will also grow faster.
After dinner, Zhao Yi went to the pig pens of the Zhao brothers to take a look. He found that the pigs were well raised and were being raised exactly according to his instructions, which made him feel more relieved.
After giving a few instructions to Zhao Laowu, Zhao Yi walked towards Zhangjia Village.
Zhao Yi paused when passing by the lacquer tree forest.
We walked into the lacquer forest. There were very few children playing there because children with allergies would turn into pig heads the next day if they went home after playing in the lacquer forest for a while.
Zhao Yi walked around in the lacquer forest for a while and found that there were no new cuts in the forest, which meant that few people were mining lacquer there.
Shaking his head, Zhao Yi walked towards his father-in-law's house.
At this time, everyone in Zhangjia Village was still working in the fields. When Zhao Yi arrived at the end of the village, the fields were busy with work.
"Isn't this Zhang Fusheng's son-in-law?"
"I heard that he became a worker. My daughter also became a worker in the area."
"This blessed person is different. I heard that Zhang Jun was made a worker by him."
Everyone started talking about it.
Of course Zhao Yi heard it, but did not respond.
After standing on the roadside and waiting for a while, father-in-law Zhang Fusheng walked towards Zhao Yi.
"dad."
Zhao Yi shouted.
"Walk home and tell me if you have eaten yet."
Mother-in-law Wang Kaihui also rushed over after everyone passed the message.
"I came here this time to tell you something. The workers in our department store like to eat loaches, the kind you send to the supply and marketing cooperative, 40 cents a pound. Try to get as many as possible. You can go with my second brother this time.
Those are just greedy people, their families are not short of money. ”
Zhao Yi said with a smile.
There is no large-scale use of pesticides in the fields, and now there are many things like loaches and eels.
"Okay, I'll send it to you when I'm done. By the way, this is the honey your second brother got in the mountains. I was planning to send it to you in two days, but I didn't expect you to come here first."
Zhang Fusheng took out a sealed small earthen jar and handed it to Zhao Yi.
"Second brother also has this skill?"
Zhao Yi smiled.
"I have to go up the mountain to collect pig grass and chop firewood. I'll get some if I come across it. I don't go looking for it specifically."
Wang Kaihui boiled two sugar-water eggs and said.
"Oh, I was just talking to my second brother about something. The lacquer tree forest in front of us is covered with lacquer fruit that fell last year. Is there no one taking care of it?"
Zhao Yi looked at his father-in-law and asked.
"Since the Zhang family fell into decline, no one has taken care of it for many years. No one who knows this craft has passed it on to others, and we don't know how to do it either."
Zhang Fusheng shook his head.
The Zhang family that my father-in-law was talking about was naturally the wealthy family in Zhangjia Village at that time.
"It won't take long, so you can pick the fruits and sell them for money. The local department stores and supply and marketing cooperatives will accept them."
Zhao Yi reminded.
Sumac fruit can be used to make wood wax oil, which is very good for protecting furniture and preventing insect bites. Although it is not as good as paint in terms of the appearance of furniture, it is also very good.
As for lacquer making, Zhao Yi certainly didn't know how to do it. He could only make some simple things with bamboo.
"I'll try it this year after waiting for the results."
The father-in-law nodded.
But as long as someone picks it up, there will definitely be people following suit. Nowadays, people are no fools.
Just like Zhang Fusheng's family often prepare loaches, the villagers would follow suit, but they didn't know what to do with them after that. Seeing that Zhang Fusheng's family actually used loaches to feed pigs, few people followed suit.
However, the little ones in the village who were assigned to cut grass for pigs could get some loaches, fish and shrimps to the breeding farm after cutting the grass for the pigs.
As for buying bran and other things to feed them, no one in the village is willing to do so.
There is no income at home, how can we bear to spend money?
This money was earned from eggs grown at home.
The little income I have throughout the year depends entirely on the eggs at home.
Zhang Fusheng and Wang Kaihui, who used to have little presence in the village, have now become a household name. The eldest son in the family is a worker, and his daughter is also a worker. Naturally, many people in the village came forward and took the initiative to move around.
I'm just worried that I won't be able to pay for money if my family gets sick, so since we have such a close relationship, I'd be able to ask for money when the time comes.
After finishing the important matters, Zhao Yi didn't stay any longer and had to rush back to the area.
Zhang Fusheng and Wang Kaihui accompanied Zhao Yi all the way to the commune. They only returned after seeing Zhao Yi leave on a tractor.
After returning home, the two started to catch loaches again. This time they caught more than before. Everyone in the village was a little surprised. Could those two little piglets be so greedy?
Although the villagers were curious, they did not follow suit. They could not afford to buy piglets at home. As for taking on the task pigs, they could forget about it. They knew the condition of the pigs in the village farms.
It can't keep up with the growth of Zhang Fusheng's piglets at all. It's only over a month old and looks like it's two sizes bigger.
If they had not lived in the same village, the other villagers would have suspected that Zhang Fusheng had magical powers.
"Head of the family, the eldest daughter is about to give birth, and Xiaojing is about to give birth too. The eggs we have at home are not enough for them to take care of the confinement. Do we need to buy some eggs from the village and send them over?"
Wang Kaihui looked at his wife and asked.
Wang Kaihui and Zhang Fusheng were naturally very happy as they were going to have grandchildren soon.
But both sides had to recuperate after the baby was born, and Zhao Yi's help was all that was needed to support his family, so naturally Wang wanted to treat everyone equally when sending the gifts.
"It's still early. There's at least a month left. Didn't the eggs just get delivered? We'll think of a way after the baby is born. If that doesn't work, I'll buy some and deliver them to you as you said."
Zhang Fusheng nodded. At this moment, he just wanted to quickly prepare these loaches and send them to the city.
evening.
As soon as Zhao Yi returned home, he met Wang Shunming and his cousin Li Baoguo coming to his door.
"Master Wang, cousin, what's going on between you two?"
Zhao Yi was a little confused as to how these two people got together.
"Is this your cousin?"
Wang Shunming was a little surprised. He originally thought that he was just passing by, but he didn't expect that he was a relative of Zhao Yi.
"I'm my cousin. This is Master Wang, the man who recommended me to be a maintenance worker."
Zhao Yi introduced him to his cousin.
"Let's not talk about this. You can become a worker because of your strong skills. I just acted as a matchmaker."
Master Wang waved his hand. Zhao Yi had been in the area for so long and would send him things from time to time. He was a grateful person, so Master Wang naturally wanted to get closer to Zhao Yi.
But Zhao Yi still feels embarrassed when he sees himself sometimes.
"Without matchmaking, I wouldn't be where I am today. No matter what, Master Wang is my benefactor."
Zhao Yi smiled.
"I'll tell you tonight. Today I got a bottle of good wine, three yuan a bottle of Fenjiu, which is not available normally."
Wang Shunming smiled and took out a bottle of Fenjiu from his arms, indicating that he could enjoy it tonight.
