Chu Xi was planning to help everyone improve their living conditions, so he took Xiao Shitou to find the team leader.
Now we must first discuss a set of rules with the team leader. We are all used to being poor, and now we suddenly have a profitable business. We should not let this damage the relationship. Besides, catching fish in the canals all the time is not a long-term solution.
"Uncle Shi, I'm at home. I have something to discuss with you." The team leader was squatting at the door smoking a pipe. The smell was so pungent that it could be smelled from a long distance away.
"Shi Peng's family, you say." Seeing that the person was with a child, he consciously knocked the pipe and put out the fire.
Soon, the captain couldn't help but scream, "That filthy thing is worth money?"
These things that are commonly found in ditches, river puddles and even sewers every day, things that everyone despises, are actually so valuable.
If this is true, then the Shi Peng family has done a great thing.
Captain Shi was really excited. After a winter, two more elderly people almost died. It was all because of lack of money, food and clothing, and warm clothes, so their bodies naturally had low resistance.
Fortunately, a doctor came to the village. One of the elderly people who came with the last group of educated youth was a doctor, and a particularly good doctor. By coincidence, he treated the elderly man on the spot and avoided a tragedy.
In this season of spring when there is not much food left, many families have no surplus food. Just now he was squatting at the door thinking about this matter. Now he is sleepy and someone gives him a pillow. It is like timely help, and it was done so quietly.
Just like that, Captain Shi took the note from the county purchasing station and started wiping his tears, and he could hardly speak clearly.
"The situation has started to improve now. Some communes have already established various mutual aid societies, and everyone is getting richer."
"Our fellow villagers work very hard, but they just don't make any money. The few work points they earn aren't even enough to eat, so we must change our mindset."
Chu Xi also had good intentions.
"Okay, I'll call everyone and ask them to come up with a charter together!" The captain said this in a firm tone.
"We all have to thank you for this! If you need anything in the future, just come to us. As long as I'm here, I'll do it for you!"
This is what Chu Xi loves to hear the most.
Wouldn't this make it more convenient to go to the county town, and also shut up some jealous and gossipy people in the village?
Soon, the yard of the brigade headquarters was full of people.
The brigade cadres, respected elders, representatives from each family and some children watching the fun.
The moment they heard the good news, everyone became excited, and all of them looked at Chu Xi who was standing next to the captain with all kinds of emotional eyes.
Most of them were grateful, but there were also some who were envious and jealous. As the saying goes, there are all kinds of birds in the forest. Only a few people pouted, and they didn't dare to act like a demon in this situation.
“We can make money too!”
"Everyone should be grateful to the Shi Peng family. If she hadn't found a way, we wouldn't have had this good thing."
"That's great! I'll start making some money soon. I'm also going to buy a bicycle for my child. It's time for him to find a husband..."
"I've been annoyed with Li San from the neighboring commune for a long time. He just keeps a rabbit, but he acts like he's eating royal food every day, making it seem like we can't do anything about it."
In fact, many people also became more excited. If loaches can be raised, then other animals can be raised as well. Their eyes, which are becoming brighter and brighter, finally see the hope of life.
Are better days coming?
During lunch time, the whole production team was in an uproar. The children didn't know why the adults were so happy, so they ran around happily.
In the afternoon, groups of people couldn't wait to start working. According to the plan in the meeting, half of the people went to dig loaches, mainly women and the elderly. The scene was as lively as the double harvest season, and children could also join in the fun.
I plan to gather enough for the first batch and test the waters at the same time. After all, it’s just a note, and some people may still worry about whether it’s real or fake.
The remaining half of the people were all strong laborers. They dug mud ponds, expanded the puddles by the river several times, built earth walls to block the river water, and raised loaches. They worked so enthusiastically that their excitement was comparable to getting married.
When Deputy Captain Shi Daxing returned successfully with the note from delivering the goods to the county on the third day, the entire Shijia Village Brigade was completely immersed in a sea of joy. Although it was only less than 200 yuan, it represented a steady flow of money.
As a result, everyone worked even harder. If it weren't for the team leader's supervision, I'm afraid some would have to work overtime at night.
Chu Xi was also happy to see this, but she just watched from the side with Xiao Shitou. She was not planning to get involved in this matter. After all, she didn't need the hard-earned money.
However, the entire winter in the village had a profound impact on Chu Xi. Although she came from the cannibalistic world of the apocalypse and had experienced too much intrigue, deception and betrayal, there was still a trace of kindness left in her heart.
In the end times, she adheres to the principle of "I will not deceive others, and others will not offend me", but if anyone offends me, I will kill him!
The title of Ghost Lord is not just boasting, it is earned through real fighting.
The legend of a thousand-mile chase also makes most people fearful.
Now that she has come to this world, this peaceful era, she also wants to change herself.
As long as I am not provoked, I will not bother to interfere with others.
After a winter of contact, the enthusiasm and kindness of the villagers touched her already soft and kind heart, and she wanted to integrate into them.
Seeing these kind people working all day but still struggling on the brink of starvation with disheveled hair and dirty faces, she felt the last bit of kindness left in her, which led to this plan. It was nothing more than a trip to the county town.
Seeing everyone's happiness, Chu Xi was also genuinely happy.
Now she felt a little integrated into this village, this collective, and this world. Before, she was just alone with Xiao Shitou, with the goal of living a good life and ignoring the outside world, as if she was surviving in the end of the world. But she found that she was wrong.
It turns out that being able to help others with my own meager strength is also a very happy thing.
Now she is more relaxed and feels more at ease.
The cold and unapproachable female educated youth from the big city gradually became the young wife of Shi Peng's family, who was loved by everyone for her down-to-earth style.
In the past, she would only work hard for a few work points or needs, but now she walks among the crowd with a smile on her face. She no longer closes her heart, but integrates into this group and becomes a part of it.
