Qin Jianye analyzed the matter from his own perspective: "Uncle, think about it, if that person wanted to cheat you, he could have asked for a high price for the grain.
We are busy farming now, and even if the price of food doubles, we have to grit our teeth and make money."
Qin Baogen thought it made sense and nodded.
"And that person said that after the seeds come down, they can be exchanged for money. I think this is reliable."
Qin Baogen was puzzled, and Qin Jianye explained: "On the one hand, they are in this kind of business. Buying at a low price and selling at a high price is better than a one-time deal.
On the other hand, even if we were fooled, we still had the land to plant. With food shortages everywhere these days, if we could sell those seeds, we might even get our money back.
We just need to be careful not to be passed off as good quality products."
The more Qin Baogen listened, the brighter his eyes became. He patted Qin Jianye on the shoulder and said, "Good boy, you are becoming more and more capable!"
Qin Jianye chuckled and was dragged to the brigade headquarters by Qin Baogen for a meeting.
This matter could not be made public, so after several brigade cadres discussed it, they decided to send the younger generation of the family to do the transaction.
Three carts were prepared and they set off at midnight.
Qin Baogen was holding the 1,350 yuan he had taken out of the account, feeling both excited and nervous.
By the time he arrived at the transaction location, people from other production teams had already arrived.
A group of people were waiting outside in an orderly manner, whispering and gossiping to each other.
Qin Jianye looked up and didn't see his wife, feeling a little anxious.
After pacing for a while, a round figure appeared, looked around at the traders, and pointed at one of them.
"You, come with me!" Chen Yunwei didn't say anything, but the voice of the man who discussed the transaction with them that day came from her.
Xu Qianjin was stunned for a moment, then hurried forward.
He walked cautiously to Chen Yunwei, but she pointed at him and sent him somewhere else.
Xu Qianjin walked forward for a while and saw a dozen sacks behind the bushes.
Qin Siyue operated the recorder with his fingers: "Where's the money? Take it out and let me count it!"
The man's rough voice left Xu Qianjin stunned.
He subconsciously took out the big unity in his arms and handed it to Qin Siyue.
Qin Siyue pinched the thickness and roughly estimated the value. Thinking it was about right, he patted the sack beside him and motioned Xu Qianjin to come forward and count it.
Xu Qianjin was a little scared, but he still stepped forward bravely.
Use your fingers to pry open the sack and you will see the plump and shiny wheat grains inside.
Xu Qianjin exclaimed in surprise, and was glared at by Qin Siyue. He then smiled awkwardly and tried to pick up a sack.
Qin Siyue didn't leave until he had checked everything and was sure there was no problem.
Xu Qianjin didn't care where she went. He ran back to call the strong guys who came with him to trade.
The group was overjoyed when they saw the sacks piled up like a mountain.
Captain Xu carefully checked again to make sure that nothing had been switched before he told the young man to put the sacks on the cart and quickly return to the team.
While we were busy here, the second transaction had already started over there.
When the other captains saw Xu Qianjin so happy, they knew that the man from the black market had not cheated them and was doing business with them sincerely.
So everyone relaxed.
The second person named by Chen Yunwei was Qin Baogen.
Qin Baogen was ordered to run a mile before he saw piles of sacks.
He was in no mood to check the identities of the people. He opened the sack and made sure that the food was fine, then handed the money to Qin Siyue.
He called his son, the son of the accountant, the son of the branch secretary, and Qin Jianye to help him load the sacks onto the truck. He didn't even go back the way he came, but pushed the sacks away.
Qin Jianye was a little worried, so he turned his head to look, but saw that Qin Siyue had already run away.
I took a deep breath, suppressed my feet, and said to myself, "It's okay, my wife is amazing!"
There really wasn't anything wrong with Chen Yunwei.
Pointing here and there, he made everyone feel that there were so many of them, scattered in different places.
No one dared to cause trouble, and the transaction was completed smoothly.
Chen Yunwei saw the last wave of people loading the food onto the cart, and they pulled Qin Siyue along and ran away.
Soon, the sound of a cart was heard. Looking closely, I saw several dark figures in the darkness.
Chen Yunwei felt at ease, slowed down her pace, and always kept a certain distance from the captain and his men.
Qin Jianye noticed the movement behind him and breathed a sigh of relief. No one in the group spoke a word, and as quickly as possible, they pulled the grain back to the production team and delivered it to the warehouse.
Fearing something might happen, Qin Baogen didn't go home. He called a few young people to stay with him and guard the place.
Qin Jianye said, "Uncle, I'm worried about my wife, so I'll go back first."
Qin Baogen didn't force him. After thanking him, he asked him to be careful on the road.
Qin Jianye nodded and strode away. He ran into Chen Yunwei and her daughter near the old house and gave them a thumbs-up.
Chen Yun rolled her eyes slightly, and after they returned to the house, lay on the kang, and entered the space, she complained: "Look at you, why are you meddling in other people's business? It's tiring and you don't make any money."
Qin Siyue also felt that this was very different from her father's style of doing things: "Dad, don't you love to stock up on goods? Why are you willing to sell the seeds?"
Although these seeds are not all high-yield seeds, and there are a lot of ordinary grains mixed in, but after all, they took a lot of effort to stockpile. Is it really worth it if it is exchanged for money?
Unexpectedly, Qin Jianye didn't care at all: "I just want to help you because you're all struggling. Besides, I won't lose anything. After a few days, the seed problem will be solved, and I can exchange it for a batch of native seeds."
Qin Siyue rolled his eyes at his father and thought, "You're just pretending. Let's see how long you can keep this up."
Qin Jianye knew he couldn't hide it from these two cunning men, so he smiled and said, "Well, it was just a spur of the moment action. Seeing the captain in a difficult situation, I thought of giving him a little help. Who would have thought that it would go so wrong?"
How can we get so much grain from this kind of land? It’s almost emptying my small treasury.”
Qin Siyue didn't say anything, and neither did Chen Yunwei.
It’s not that the two of them were reluctant to leave, they were just tired, extremely tired, and they didn’t even bother to count the money.
Qin Jianye didn't count. He rested on the sofa for a while, had some midnight snacks, and then went back to his room to sleep.
The next morning, at dawn, the gong sounded again.
Qin Jianye woke up from his sleep with a start, feeling that this life was not a life for a human being.
But he didn't get angry and followed the old lady to work obediently.
Qin Baogen gathered everyone for a meeting and implicitly told everyone that the grain seeds had been changed last night.
When the members heard this, they were excited and praised the captain highly.
After that, they worked very hard on farming, and in just a few days, all the land was turned over.
If there is not enough seeds, I will plant what I have first. Besides that, I will tend to my own plot.
If you can't grow grain, you plant vegetables. Every household saved some seeds, and thanks to the rain the previous two days, small seedlings have already sprouted.
Normally, the seedlings would have been thinned out, but the members of the Qingshan Brigade were reluctant to remove the weak and sick ones.
The team leader suggested: "You can plant the ones you don't want in the team's fields first, and then pull them out when the seeds from the Agricultural Bureau arrive."
