"Dad, I admit that what you said makes sense, and there was nothing wrong with Bai Yi doing this at the beginning.
But Bai Yi has already established a very good reputation. Is it necessary to continue investing like this?
The key is that Bai Yi gave too much. This is meat, not to mention in the countryside, even in the city it is the most scarce commodity! "
This was already Xiao Fuxing's second winter in Chenjiatun. He had heard about his nephew's deeds countless times from Chen Baiwang and Chen Dahe.
Whether it was wild boars or wild wolves, they were sent out in batches.
"Fuxing, in this world, there is nothing absolutely precious. Whether something is precious or not is different for everyone.
Of course, these meats are extremely precious to most people, but what about your nephew?
Did he buy the meat? Or did he raise it with great effort? No, he hunted it.
You might say that hunting is hard work, but you have also been to the mountains with Bai Yi, and you know how easy hunting is for Bai Yi.
For the white-clad people, this meat was obtained at almost zero cost, but look at what we got.
We have lived in Chenjiatun for two winters. Look at Bai Yi's prestige in Chenjiatun.
From the elderly in their sixties and seventies to toddlers, including the brigade leaders of the production teams, who didn't praise the white-clad workers? Wherever they went, weren't they greeted with smiles?
You may say that these are just empty names, then let me tell you about the actual benefits.
Our family has lived here for two winters without even a letter of introduction. Members often come here to get medicine or see a doctor. Has anyone ever raised any questions? Have the brigade cadres ever inquired about the situation?
Have you ever thought about why this is the case? Is it because you look energetic, or because I am old?
Neither. It is because everyone has benefited from Baiyi and because Baiyi has established a good reputation.
This is the return on investment, do you think it is worth it? "
Xiao Qingyang took the opportunity to educate his son.
In the past, at Red Star Farm, filling one’s stomach was a luxury, and the only goal was to survive.
When food and clothing are a problem, how can we have the time to talk about the overall situation?
Everything is fine now. I have such an outstanding grandson by my side. He can be a role model and a benchmark for my son.
"Dad, you are right. I am too petty. I won't go to Ru Baiyi."
Xiao Qingyang's teachings made Xiao Fuxing suddenly enlightened.
Yes! I'm not from Chenjiatun, so how could I have lived here for so long without anyone asking about me? Why do people always greet me with smiles?
Why did my father work in the office on the farm, and why did my mother work in the cafeteria?
It’s all because of his eldest nephew Yang Baiyi. Everyone is doing this for Yang Baiyi’s sake.
It's really funny that I was enjoying the benefits of free meat, but I didn't understand why my nephew gave me the meat.
"Uncle, you are already very good. After going through so much hardship, you can still remain optimistic. The adversity did not knock you down, but will eventually become a stepping stone to your success.
We grew up in different environments, came into contact with different people and things, so we look at problems from different perspectives.
Actually, I just benefited from my hunting skills. If I didn't know hunting and medicine, I might not be as good as you."
If Xiao Qingyang's words were guidance, then Yang Baiyi's words were recognition and encouragement.
Xiao Fuxing should grow with encouragement and transform with praise, because he has suffered too many setbacks and hardships in recent years.
"Especially after Dahuang and the others grew up, hunting became easier for my brother.
In the past, my brother had to go hunting in the mountains to feed the dogs, but now the dogs can even support the family."
The little girl's words made everyone laugh.
Xiao Fuxing no longer worried about this issue. After lunch, he took the little girl to the brigade headquarters to watch the pig slaughtering.
Yang Baiyi took out a wild boar and planned to send it to the educated youth compound.
We will definitely have a dinner together at the end of the year. If we arrange it at home, it will be troublesome for grandma and Wanru, so let's just arrange it at the educated youth compound.
Just deliver the meat yourself and don’t worry about anything else. Just wait and eat it.
Just like what my grandfather said, meat that is scarce and precious in the eyes of others is almost zero cost for me.
The young people all went out to play, leaving only the old couple at home.
A pot of fine black tea was brewed, various snacks and nuts were placed on the table, and the old couple held newspapers in their hands, enjoying the quiet afternoon.
"Old Xiao, have you noticed that our son is much more cheerful than before?
In the past, he would only go out if his eldest grandson or granddaughter dragged him along, but today he took the initiative to take his granddaughter to the brigade headquarters to watch the pig being slaughtered."
Mu Xue was very happy about the changes in her son. It was not a good thing for a grown man to stay at home every day.
"Once he figured it out, he naturally became cheerful. He used to be at odds with himself.
My eldest grandson hunted and gave it to the members of the cooperative. My son was so heartbroken that his blood was flowing. Killing the pig was even more painful than killing him. How could he take the initiative to join in the fun?
Xiao Qingyang took a sip of tea and said with a smile.
"My son has suffered so much with us and gone hungry so much, so it's normal for him to value things more.
Fortunately, my eldest grandson is here, and he serves as a role model for my son. He has a subtle influence on him, and he will gradually get better."
When she was on the farm, every day was torment for Mu Xue. She missed her daughter and worried about her son at the same time.
When their son followed them to the farm, he was only fourteen or fifteen years old, which was the time when his values and character were being formed.
Mu Xue was afraid that her son would feel inferior, give up on himself, and become paranoid. Fortunately, her son was very hardworking and did not grow up in a bad way. The old couple is still very proud of this.
Until Yang Baiyi and Lin Wanru returned from the educated youth compound, Xiao Fuxing and Yang Xiaoxiao had not returned home yet.
"Grandma, don't cook tonight. Let's go to the cafeteria and join in the fun."
Yang Baiyi suggested.
"Okay, whether it tastes good or not is secondary. The main thing is the atmosphere."
The old couple put on more clothes, hats and scarves. Lin Wanru went to the kitchen to get a large basin and followed Yang Baiyi out.
At this time, the yard of the brigade headquarters was already crowded and bustling.
Including the two pigs from the production team, eight pigs were slaughtered at once today.
Unlike last year, when there were only two big wild boars and the others were small, this year all the pigs are big, and the smallest one weighs more than 200 kilograms.
The team leader said that meat is now available. As long as you are willing to pay, you can buy as much pork as you want.
The members have worked hard for a year and plan to treat themselves well during the New Year to replenish their bodies.
