Chapter 162 The teacher's position was taken away
"Uncle! Go to the village committee and use the loudspeaker to ask if anyone in the village has leftover radishes and cabbages and wants to buy some. Bring them over here and I'll take care of them!"
Li Meng called the captain over and told him what he thought.
"Girl! What are you doing again?" Captain Huang was confused and didn't know what this girl was thinking.
"Make money! Make a lot of money!" Li Meng said concisely.
Captain Huang didn't ask any more questions. It didn't matter anyway, as long as he could make money!
"What should I say about the price?" Captain Huang asked cautiously. He didn't dare to give any blind advice, so he could only ask Li Meng.
"20 cents per pound, take as many as you can! It can't be rotten or frozen." Li Meng instructed.
"Okay! Then I'll go first!" Captain Huang went directly to the village committee to publicize after receiving the task.
After a while, the sound of loudspeakers was heard in the village.
"Hey, hey, hey!!! Fellow villagers, fellow villagers, I have good news for you all. If you have any uneaten radishes and cabbages at home, you can take them to the processing plant to be weighed. They are 0.2 yuan per pound. Remember not to freeze or rot. Please check them carefully before taking them over!"
This news spread quickly throughout the village. Every household had some cabbage and radishes in their cellars, which were enough for their daily consumption. This price was much better than taking a ox cart to the town to sell them on the black market.
Everyone quickly started to get busy at home, happily preparing to take the cabbages and radishes to the processing plant to exchange for money.
Li Meng assigned the task of harvesting cabbages and radishes to the team leader, Liu Huan and Li Laidi.
He gave the task of supervising the production of soy products to Zhou Hui and Wu Ruirui, and drove his donkey cart to the town.
In fact, she was not going to town. If she didn't find an excuse to go to town, could she conjure up the seasoning for pickles out of thin air?
Of course I have to find an excuse! Li Meng gave Liu Huan the money for collecting radishes and cabbages and drove away.
Li Meng saved all the money received at the beginning in the space. Isn’t this much more convenient than putting it in the bank? You can take it out directly when you want to use it!
Li Meng was driving a donkey cart alone on a country road. When he arrived at a pine forest, he jumped out of the cart and looked around. It was not yet time to get off work, so not many people were going to or coming back from the town.
Li Meng drove the donkey cart around the back of the pine forest, called out Dandan and asked it to fly in the air as a scout. Seeing that there was no one around, Li Meng flashed into the space and loaded the salt, sugar, chili powder, and various spices that had been prepared long ago onto the donkey cart. He also put three large jars for pickling vegetables and six large wooden basins and drove the cart back.
Gu Yi drove back slowly, and before he reached the door, he saw a crowd of people gathered in front of the processing plant.
Li Meng noticed that the village chief of Sanhe Village, Wang Daguo, was also in the crowd, talking to Captain Huang.
Li Meng opened her voice and yelled to the crowd, "Make way, make way!"
Hearing Li Meng's voice, Captain Huang hurried over to help park the car.
"Uncle, call a few people to come and move things into the yard!" Li Meng parked the car and walked into the yard carrying a bag of chili powder.
As soon as he reached the door, he was stopped by Wang Daguo, who was smiling so hard that wrinkles appeared on his face.
"Hey, Li Zhiqing, I'm busy! I have something to tell you, is it convenient for you?"
Looking at the village chief Wang in front of her, Li Meng knew that this man must have something he was embarrassed to say to her, which was why he was smiling so flatteringly.
"Village Chief Wang, okay, wait for me to unload all the things, and then we'll go to the village committee to talk. Is that okay with you?" Li Meng also said to Village Chief Wang with a smile.
"Okay, okay, okay, you go ahead and do your work first!" Wang Daguo quickly stepped aside and watched Li Meng walk into the yard with a bag in one hand.
The remaining things were unloaded into the warehouse in the room by several aunts who heard the noise.
"Let's go! Village Chief Wang!" Li Meng washed his hands and walked out of the yard, calling Wang Daguo who was still standing at the door, and went to the village committee together.
Captain Huang also followed the two to the village committee.
"Village Chief Wang, tell me! What do you want to tell me? Just tell me directly." Li Meng pulled over a bench and motioned for Wang Daguo to sit down and talk slowly.
Wang Daguo rubbed his hands, not knowing how to start the conversation, for fear that the girl would jump up and hit him if he told her.
"It's like this. You see you are so busy now that you have to do the work of three people. So I want to discuss with you whether the teaching position in our village primary school can be freed up for someone else." Wang Daguo said it with trembling lips.
"Am I the only one who gives up the space? Or should Wu Ruirui and I give up the space together?" Li Meng asked coldly.
"You're alone, and I see that you're busy. So I wanted to ask you, and I'm also considering you. If you agree, then forget it!" Wang Daguo's voice became lower and lower as he spoke.
"Okay, no problem! Can I ask you one more question? Who are you going to give the position of teacher to?"
Wang Daguo was surprised to hear that Li Meng agreed immediately. But his expression changed when he heard what she said later. It seemed that she had guessed it.
"Tell me, who is it?" Captain Huang looked at Wang Daguo who had been silent for a long time and asked anxiously.
"Uncle, don't ask! You know this person too! If I'm not mistaken, it's Yao Yuan!"
"Okay, Village Chief Wang, since everything has been settled, I'll leave first."
"Uncle, when you're done with your work, come to the processing plant. I have something to tell you!" After saying that, Li Meng nodded to Wang Daguo and walked out of the village committee.
"I was so scared. I thought she would disagree and grab my hair and beat me up!" Wang Daguo patted his chest when he saw Li Meng walking out of the village committee.
"You! I don't know what to say to you. Yao Yuan's wife is your relative, right? It's something anyone can guess." Captain Huang looked at him with contempt.
"I haven't told you yet. You are really eating meat at the bottom of the bowl! When did you set up this processing plant? I have never heard of it. If I hadn't come here, I wouldn't know it."
"Let's all make money together. Brother Huang, you can't eat it all by yourself!" Wang Daguo walked up and patted Captain Huang on the shoulder.
Then Captain Huang glanced at him sideways and told him everything about his cooperation with Li Meng.
Wang Daguo slapped his thigh in anxiety. It would be great if their village had such a capable educated youth. Now they had offended her. It seemed that their village would not have a chance to make money in the future.
Li Meng ignored them and arrived at the gate of the processing plant. The cabbages and radishes had been almost harvested. Then Li Meng and a few aunts washed the cabbages and radishes several times with well water and hung them on the racks in the yard to dry.
Captain Huang also sent Wang Daguo away and came to the yard of the processing plant.
"Uncle, go ask the town government tomorrow when we can get some of these little pigs. Look at all the leftover bean dregs and vegetable leaves I have. If I don't feed them to the pigs, it will be wasted!"
"Okay, I'll go to town tomorrow and find out for you." Captain Huang promised.
