Chapter 414 Opening a Farm



Spent some more money.

The photos were developed in three days.

It took another day to deliver it to Erya.

The village chief used a loudspeaker to make an announcement, asking the villagers to come and get the photos.

The scene was a sensation.

There were huge crowds of people.

The huge drying yard was completely surrounded by people.

Because Erya couldn't recognize all the people, the job of posting the photos fell to Maodan.

Under the leadership of the village chief, Maodan has already shown the demeanor of a small leader.

"Xiaoqing, thank you so much. I... I have never been so worthy of this life... I..." The village chief spoke in a rare tearful voice, "I have lived for seventy or eighty years, and I have been the one who raised my grandson since he was little, from this little kid to the time he could walk and run. I tell him every day to remember grandpa, remember what grandpa looks like. I'm afraid that in the blink of an eye, no one will remember me.

Now it’s good, I have the photos, and even if I lose them in the future, I can hang them there and make things look more respectful.”

The village chief was both crying and laughing.

Su Qing couldn't empathize with him, but he could understand his concerns.

"Let's take a picture together."

The village elders and their husband took a photo with the Su family.

The person who pressed the shutter button was the village chief's grandson.

When he was in elementary school, he was very studious.

Erya taught him twice and he got the hang of it.

The photos were average, but the village chief liked them very much.

"Let's go to my house. Xiao Cheng and I will have a drink at noon."

The village chief hasn't been so happy in a long time.

He took Su Qing and a few others and walked home.

The road is still the same road.

The stones on the roadside are still in their original positions.

Ducks in groups of three or two were playing in the water, quacking from time to time.

The village chief would scold them like an old child.

"The policy has changed now. There's no limit on the number of poultry you can raise. Families with a little money can bring home eighteen or nineteen ducks. Look, these ducks with red strings tied to their feet are from your Aunt Xiulan's family."

Su Qing smiled and said, "It's better to raise more, so that we can have more meat. If we can't finish it, we can sell it to supplement the family income.

Hey, Village Chief, I see that we have many rivers and large riverbanks here, which is very suitable for raising ducks and chickens. Has anyone in the village ever considered opening a farm or something?"

Farm?

Oh my god?

The village chief didn't even dare to think about it.

Even though the policies have changed, their pockets haven't gotten fatter.

Raising a few more is at most for self-sufficiency.

Who would have thought that you could make a lot of money from this?

The village chief sighed, "You know what the situation is like in our village. We are broke. To open a breeding farm, let's say chicken and ducklings, it would cost a lot of money.

What about daily food? The fields only produce so little, not enough, so we have to buy more. If the chickens and ducks get sick, we have to see a veterinarian. Everything costs money, and no one in our village can afford such a large sum.

And after they grow up, who will they be sold to?"

The village chief's concerns are not without reason.

They spend their days at home and in the fields, and only go to town on market day. Naturally, they have no idea how the outside world is developing.

But Su Qing knew.

She was used to eating chicken, duck, fish and meat from the water village.

Su Qing was still a little uncomfortable eating food produced in Beijing all of a sudden.

The poultry from the two places has a different taste.

The water village's water chestnuts are sweet and refreshing, and are very suitable for boiled meat and soup.

This advantage can occupy a large part of the market.

Su Qing calmed down and analyzed the situation with the village chief: "The policy says that private transactions are allowed, and small vendors can set up stalls to do business, including but not limited to private individuals.

You say you don't have the capital, so let's all pool our resources. Let's set up a village cooperative, with the entire village supporting it together and then distributing the profits according to their investment. Young people in the village can work without leaving home, balancing work and family.

If you're worried about not being able to sell your products, that's even easier. Xiao Cheng knows a lot of friends who own restaurants, so you can ask him to promote them. Plus, there are so many small vendors in the city right now, so you could drive a tractor and haul chickens, ducks, and fish to the city to sell them, which would also be a source of income.

Uncle, if you want to live a good life, it's hard to rely on just one acre of land. Our water village has this inherent advantage. If we take advantage of it, it will only be a matter of time before every household has a bicycle or motorcycle.

The conditions in the water village are not bad.

Developing these breeding industries will not pollute the environment and will increase income and production.

The village chief hesitated.

This is too risky.

He pondered for a moment and said, "I'll ask Maodan some other day. The younger generation is in charge of the world now, and we old folks don't have the final say anymore."

"Okay, if you ask, if everyone really has this idea, Xiao Cheng and I have some ideas and can help you, but whether it will succeed or not depends on you.

But uncle, do you know how many restaurants there are out there now? Tens of thousands.”

Just click.

Everything that needs to be said has been said, and it is up to them to decide.

But I have to say that the village chief is a man of action.

As soon as the dinner party ended, he called Maodan over.

Upon hearing this, Maodan slapped his thigh and said, "Come on, Uncle. I was just thinking a few days ago about what we can do to improve our family's life. You're really just asking for trouble. Wait, while everyone is still drying their clothes in the sun, I'll go and mobilize everyone on this matter."

The progress is rapid.

Within two or three days, Maodan compiled a list of people involved in the breeding.

A total of twenty-three households contributed capital.

Maodan calculated the dividend ratio with them on the spot.

The agreement was signed only after there were no objections.

After finishing these, Maodan immediately started to prepare these things for the staff on site.

Whenever he encountered something he didn't understand, he would come to the Su family to find Cheng Fangyi.

After a few interactions, he and Cheng Fangyi became familiar with each other and called him Brother Cheng all the time.

Su Qing and Cheng Fangyi also intended to pull everyone together, and did not waste any of their connections.

Will minimize their costs as much as possible.

The old lady Li who lived next door to the Su family started spreading rumors everywhere after she learned that the Su family was also involved in this matter.

"I think she just wants to make life difficult for everyone. Raising chickens and ducks is so easy. If you don't keep an eye on one and it gets infected with chicken plague, I don't think she'll make any money."

But not everyone is Old Lady Li.

Not only does he get the Su family's favor, he also wants to destroy them.

Enthusiastic citizen number one: "I told you your mouth is worthless, but you still don't believe me. They just bought the chicks and ducklings, and you're cursing them with plague. You deserve to never get rich."

Enthusiastic No. 2: "The Su family owes you two dollars and thirty-eight cents. They're running around helping Maodan and the others contact some technical personnel just to get the two dollars and thirty-eight cents in your pocket. So, forget it."

Enthusiastic citizen number three: "If I were from the Su family, I wouldn't bother taking pictures of your family. Good intentions don't go unrewarded."

Mrs. Li was furious and blurted out, "Did I let them take the photo? Did I beg them? Now that you remind me, I remember that they took the photo of me and I haven't collected any money from them yet."

Old Lady Li's words successfully angered many young men.

In the next few days, someone threw feces into her house every day.
