Era: Started from raising livestock in the mountains

In the evening, Wang Jie, the boss of the Tuanjie Brick Factory, came to his grandfather's house with the plan written by Lin Heng. His grandfather is a retired cadre in the town.

"Grandpa, how are you doing recently?" Wang Jie came to the door with a bottle of wine and a roast chicken.

"Of course I'm fine. I can drink wine and eat chicken." The old man took a look at the gifts Wang Jie brought and smiled, "What do you want to see me this time? Tell me."

"What you said, I just came to see you." Wang Jie smiled.

The old man glanced at him and said, "If you don't say it, I will go into the house."

"Don't, grandpa, there is indeed something. I have been busy these days and I didn't come to see you. It's my fault. I will take some time to accompany you another day." Wang Jie said with a smile.

"I don't count on it. You just have a drink with me today." The old man shook his head and looked at Wang Jie and said, "But you should talk about the matter first. I'm afraid I can't provide advice if I'm drunk."

Wang Jie quickly took out the plan he had read many times and gave it to his grandfather: "Grandpa, do you think this plan is worth the money?"

The old man went into the house and took a pair of glasses. After putting them on, he carefully read it for more than ten minutes under the setting sun.

Wang Jie saw that his grandfather had finished reading it, and quickly asked, "How is it, Grandpa?"

"Who gave it to you?" The old man looked at him.

Wang Jie was stunned: "What's wrong?"

"Do you value the brick-making technology mentioned in this plan?" The old man looked at him and said.

"Yes, I need this." Wang Jie nodded, "I offered 500 yuan, and the man said something profound that I didn't understand."

"You really didn't understand." The old man shook his head and continued: "Technology is important, but what is more important is the part of this person's view of the future trend in this plan. Don't think it's just a pie in the sky, but this person has seen the future development trend clearly. This person is not simple."

Hearing this, Wang Jie was even more surprised: "But this person is an out-and-out farmer."

Is this plan really as good as grandpa said? He was a little skeptical. After all, grandpa was just a small official before, and he probably hadn't seen much of the world.

If it was really a retired official, his brick factory wouldn't have been so difficult to operate.

"What's wrong with farmers? Can't they get advice from masters?" The old man glanced at him, "I don't think this is a scam. If there is such a person leading the way, your career path will be much smoother. But how to decide specifically is your own business."

Wang Jie looked at the plan and thought about it, and immediately made a decision.

…

It was also sunset at dusk. Lin Heng’s family, his parents, his elder brother and sister-in-law, his younger sister and nephew were all present. None of them could help drooling at the golden crispy pig on the table.

“This is so fragrant and beautiful. I can’t even dream of this. You are so handsome, second father.” Lin Wei wiped his saliva and said.

Lin Wei’s words expressed the common voice of everyone. In this era, it is impossible to dream of eating golden crispy roasted suckling pig.

For rural people, eating rice and flour every day and having meat every meal is just a dream, and golden crispy pig is even more unthinkable.

“So handsome!” The other two nephews also cheered.

“Don’t say, this is fragrant enough.” Lin’s father couldn’t help swallowing his saliva.

“I’m lucky today. I can taste what roasted suckling pig tastes like.” Lin’s mother said with a smile.

“That’s right, it’s really lucky.” Sister-in-law Liu Juan also smiled. She was glad that she didn’t offend Lin Heng too much at the beginning.

Look at Lin Heng's aunt and father, it's really miserable. Until now, Lin Heng has not sent a pound of meat. But his parents have sent a lot.

"Haha, everyone can eat in a while." Lin Heng said with a smile.

"I'll help." Lin Yue came over and said, taking a breath of fragrance.

Take a knife to cut the roasted suckling pig. The pig skin makes a crisp snapping sound when the knife is cut. You know how crispy it is before you eat it.

Cut the crispy pig into small strips one by one, and then put it in the bamboo sieve as it is.

After cutting, the fragrance becomes more intense. Not only people swallow their saliva when they smell the fragrance, but Xiongba also turns around to please Lin Heng and wants to share a bone to eat.

"Let's eat, I've prepared the cold dishes." Xiulan brought out the cold dishes. Three cold dishes and pickled bamboo shoots are today's side dishes, and the main dish is this dozen pounds of golden crispy honey roasted suckling pig.

"Come on, sit down, let's eat." Lin Heng looked at everyone and said with a smile.

Today, everyone sat down very quickly. In less than half a minute, everyone was seated.

"Come, let's eat!" Lin Heng first took two pork ribs with skin for his parents.

"I want pork ribs!"

"I want pig ears!" Several nephews had already started to fight for them, but were stopped by his father.

"It's okay, everyone can eat as much as they want. There are so many. It tastes better with this dipping sauce." Lin Heng said with a smile, while taking a pork rib for everyone.

A pig has 28 pork ribs. There are only eleven people in the family, which is enough to share.

Lin Heng took a bite with the dipping sauce. The pig skin was crispy and fragrant, with a hint of honey sweetness, and the pig ribs were crispy, easy to chew, and the more you eat, the more delicious it is.

It's just a pity for Xiongba. He waited for a long time but no one spit out the bones. He was still chewing and making a loud noise. He was so angry that he lay on the ground and looked at Lin Heng with resentment.

"Well, this roast suckling pig is really delicious. I got it from Lin Heng this time." Lin's mother said with a smile.

Father Lin praised while eating: "Dip it in this chili powder, it's so delicious, son, your cooking skills are amazing."

"The pig skin is crispy and the pork is fragrant. This is the most delicious thing I have ever eaten in my life." Lin Yue gave a very high evaluation.

"It is also the most delicious thing I have ever eaten in my life, second father, let's eat it again next time, okay." Lin Wei said with bulging cheeks.

While feeding his daughter some lean meat, Lin Heng nodded and smiled: "Next time, I will treat you to roast whole lamb, which is more delicious than this."

Lin Heng was happy to see the family eating roast suckling pig and couldn't stop. He didn't have the ability in his previous life, so he must let his family live a good life in this life.

"Good!!" The three nephews cheered together.

"Come on, drink!" Father Lin took the initiative to pick up the wine. Tonight he drank rice wine.

"Come on!" Lin Heng Xiulan also raised it, a mouthful of wine and a mouthful of meat, it was so refreshing.

Especially the rice wine has a dense taste with sweetness, not as strong as white wine, and it tastes better when eaten with meat.

The children today were also happy. They not only had meat, but also honey water to drink.

After eating the ribs, everyone started to eat other parts.

Lin Heng brought the pig's head to the front and cut it. The pig's head was already fully roasted. He tore off the pig's skin and a lot of meat with a light tear.

"Come, Lin Wei, I'll give you the pig's ears." He gave the pig's ears to Lin Wei.

The remaining part was torn into two halves and given to Xiulan and Caiyun, and the pig's mouth was given to the eldest brother and sister-in-law.

"Xiongba, this is yours." The pork was almost eaten, and Lin Heng handed the pig's head to Xiongba.

"Awoo~"

Xiongba, who had been waiting for a long time, rushed over and bit the pig's head, took it out and gnawed it under the eaves, and broke the pig's head in a few bites.

At such a feast, everyone talked less because they were busy eating.

But even if they were all eating, they could see the warmth of this family.

Lin's father and mother took the ones with more bones. Lin's father would give Xiaoxia a piece of hot lean meat from time to time, and Lin's mother would tear off the meaty parts and hand them to Xiulan and her three grandchildren.

Lin Heng and his eldest brother forced their parents to take the ones with more meat, and the family was happy.

Rural families are like this. There are not many good things, and everyone is used to giving the nutritious ones to children and people who do manual labor.

Even if life gets better later, the older generation will still treat the younger generation like this, but this behavior is very annoying for the younger generations who were born later.

But often when you grow up, you will understand that you may never meet an outsider who loves you like your elders and parents in your life.

"This pickled bamboo shoot is also delicious, with a unique taste. Xiulan, did you make it?"

After eating a bamboo shoot, Lin's mother immediately showed a surprised expression. It tasted different from the pickled bamboo shoots in the sour jar, and it was much more delicious and crisper.

"In fact, I wanted to ask a long time ago, this pickled bamboo shoot is really delicious." Liu Juan also said with a smile.

"Lin Heng taught me. I'll teach you how to make it some other day." Xiulan said with a smile.

Lin's mother was stunned and didn't believe it at all: "My lazy son can make these things? Xiulan, are you trying to flatter him again?"

Lin Heng was speechless: "Mom, you are too prejudiced against me. I won't learn from others."

"Really, I'm not lying." Xiulan said with a smile.

Lin's mother glanced at him: "For today's roast suckling pig, I believe you."

Lin Heng: "..."

After nearly an hour of dry rice, the roast suckling pig was all finished, and pickled bamboo shoots and other cold dishes were also eaten up.

"How much noodles do you all eat? I'll go to serve them." Xiulan stood up and said.

"Don't serve them. No one can eat them." Lin's mother shook her head.

"Yes, no one eats. The meat is full." Lin's father shook his head.

"I'll help clean up the table." Sister-in-law Liu Juan said with a smile.

Lin's mother Caiyun and others soon cleaned up the table and helped wash the dishes.

After everyone left, Xiulan looked at Lin Heng and asked with concern: "Are you full? If not, I'll give you food."

"I'm full, no need to do it." Lin Heng shook his head.

"Then take your daughter for a walk to digest the food, I'll go feed some chickens and ducks. She eats a lot of meat, I'm afraid she'll get sick." Xiulan nodded and said.

"Okay." Lin Heng took Xiaoxia and Xiongba to play games in the yard.

"Dad, I want to listen to fairy tales."

After playing for a while, Xiaoxia was tired and didn't want to move, and kept throwing herself into Lin Heng's arms.

"Okay, okay, I'll tell you a fairy tale." Lin Heng carried her back to the house, took off her shoes, lit a candle, and sat by the bed to tell stories.

The daughter obviously didn't understand, but she asked him to read fairy tales, maybe just to listen to him talk.

"Dad, what is Little Red Riding Hood?"

"Dad, what is the Big Bad Wolf?"

While talking, Xiaoxia asked, and Lin Heng had to explain to her.

"Little Red Riding Hood is Xiaoxia wearing a red hat, and the Big Bad Wolf is a wolf that eats people."

In less than half an hour, she fell asleep, with a smile on her face and her mouth smacking from time to time.

Lin Heng looked at her. Fortunately, his daughter didn't have the habit of breathing through her mouth, otherwise her teeth would grow crooked easily, and he would have to find a way to glue her mouth shut.

"My daughter is growing up soon. Let's see if there are any cows in the city in a few days and buy two."

Lin Heng said to himself while looking at his sleeping daughter.

In this era, all walks of life in China are seriously shoddy. Sanlu milk powder happened to be produced this year. He didn't dare let his daughter drink milk powder bought outside.

Without grassland, it is not suitable for large-scale milk farming, but it is not a problem to raise a few for the family to drink milk.

If he wants his children to be smart in the future, they must first keep up with nutrition when they grow and develop.

That night, Xiulan taught Lin Heng a lesson as promised, and did not let him eat soup dumplings.

The next morning, she got up early and did not give Lin Heng a chance.

"The fry grows so fast."

Walking to the backyard, Lin Heng admired the scenery and sighed at the small grass carp in the fish pond that were already two or three centimeters long.

There are still seven or eight thousand alive now. Thanks to frequent feeding, they grow much faster than grass carp fry in natural waters.

Without predators, the number of them that survived is far beyond the normal level.

After spreading a few more handfuls of wheat bran, Lin Heng looked at the turtles that were still alive in the bucket and threw two of the stream groupers he caught yesterday into it.

Under the eaves, the silly little golden cat tied with a rope looked at the stream grouper struggling in his hand.

Lin Heng glanced at it and threw one over: "I'll feed you one for Xiaoxia's sake."

"Hoohoo!!"

With a whoosh, the little golden cat grabbed the grouper and took it to the corner, where it began to eat it.

"Dongdongdong!"

At about six o'clock, Xiulan had just put the noodles into the pot when the door was knocked.

Lin Heng walked over to open it, and a young man in black clothes with several patches appeared outside the door.

This was none other than Liu Ciwen, the young man Lin Heng had met before in Hongfeng Mountain.

"Brother Lin Heng, I'm passing by here while herding cattle, and I want to come over to exchange two books. I've finished reading the two books you asked Lin Caiyun to bring last time."

He spoke in a friendly tone, with a shy smile on his face, and the pair of Liberation shoes on his feet were already exposed to the toes.

"Of course, no problem, come in quickly." Lin Heng smiled and pulled him into the house.

"Xiulan, add one more person's noodles." Lin Heng shouted to the house again.

"Brother Lin, I'm going to eat. Don't let me do it for you. I'll change a book and leave." Liu Ciwen waved his hands repeatedly. Borrowing books was already a great favor, and he really didn't dare to eat anymore.

"Oh, just eat if I ask you to." Lin Heng smiled and pulled him into the house to sit down. This young boy was too polite.

Liu Ciwen had no choice but to sit down, looking a little embarrassed.

Lin Heng poured him a glass of water, and he quickly stood up and took it, saying thank you all the time.

Soon Xiulan scooped out a bowl of pickled cabbage noodles and put it in front of Liu Ciwen, smiling and saying, "Eat quickly, there's more in the pot after you finish eating."

This was pure white noodles, and Liu Ciwen was a little flattered. He waved his hands and said, "I can't finish so much, really."

"Eat yours, don't be polite, I'll get you a book after you finish eating." Lin Heng pressed him on the bench.

Then Lin Heng also brought a bowl of rice himself, eating while chatting with him.

From his eating movements, Lin Heng knew that he must have come out to herd cattle without eating in the morning.

"Brother Lin, Sister Xiulan, I'm done, you guys take your time."

After eating, Liu Ciwen went to the kitchen to scoop water to wash his bowl, and Xiulan couldn't stop him.

"The books are all here, you can pick whatever you want, it's okay to take a few."

Lin Heng brought out the books, looked at him and said with a smile.

Seeing the books, Liu Ciwen's shy and slightly timid eyes burst into a gleam of light, picked them up and flipped through, and finally chose a Jane Eyre and a Gorky's Childhood.

"Just these two, thank you Brother Lin." Liu Ciwen said with a shy smile.

"You're welcome." Lin Heng waved his hand.

"Then I'll leave after eating and drinking well, Brother Lin, Sister Xiulan, you must come to my house when you have time."

Liu Ciwen said again very politely, and then left.

Lin Heng didn't continue to keep him, and sent him out.

"This Liu Ciwen is only 15 years old, he is really sensible."

Seeing Lin Heng coming back, Xiulan commented.

In this era, it is not uncommon for rural children to start school late and go to the sixth grade of elementary school at the age of fifteen or sixteen.

"Yes, children from poor families have to take care of themselves early, there is nothing we can do about it, but I think he will definitely achieve something in the future."

Lin Heng said with a smile.

Xiulan was puzzled: "How did you see that?"

"I feel it." Lin Heng smiled.

"Are you going out in the morning?" Xiulan asked again.

"If I don't go out, I guess the owner of the brick factory will come to my door in a while." Lin Heng said.

Xiulan looked at him: "Do you want me to prepare meals?"

Lin Heng waved his hand, indicating that it was not necessary.

At about eight o'clock, the gate of the yard was knocked.

Lin Heng opened the door and saw that Wang Jie, the owner of the brick factory, smiled and said, "Brother Lin Heng, I am here to bother you today."

"What's the matter?" Lin Heng asked while inviting him in.

"Haha, of course it was yesterday. It was my fault yesterday. Brother Lin Heng, please don't be offended. I want us to talk about it again." Wang Jie said with a smile.

Lin Heng was not surprised by this. He left yesterday to give him time to think.

"So what do you think now?" Lin Heng asked slowly without any hurry.

Wang Jie took a sip of water to slow down, and said with a smile: "I want to buy this plan for one thousand yuan, what do you think?"

"One thousand?" Lin Heng smiled, "It seems that Boss Wang is here to entertain me, if you have nothing to do, you can go."

Wang Jie quickly replied: "Haha, just a joke, so, I will buy this plan for one thousand five hundred yuan.

I will pay a deposit of five hundred first, and I will give the remaining fifteen hundred yuan after you finish writing and verify it."

Last night, his grandfather suggested that this person should invest in the company. He would not pay the money, and he could have one more person to guide him.

He thought about it all night, but he still did not want anyone to invest in the company, so he decided to pay for it. He felt that as long as he had the relevant technology, he did not need anyone to guide him.

Lin Heng also saw that this person had no intention of letting him invest in the company, and he stopped arguing about it. He said, "The price is three thousand yuan, and you need to pay a deposit of one thousand first."

"This is too expensive. My brick factory does not make so much money now." Wang Jie shook his head hurriedly.

"With this plan, let alone three thousand, three million can be easily earned back. If you don't want to pay, I will find someone else." Lin Heng shook his head and said.

"Let's take a step back. Two thousand yuan is the limit I can accept at the moment. My small brick factory is really not profitable. Even if I have a plan, I still need money to renovate it." Wang Jie complained.

"Then you can pay two thousand first, and pay the remaining one thousand in an IOU within six months. Three thousand is the lowest price. Unless you let me invest in the technology, it is impossible to reduce it further." Lin Heng shook his head and said.

"This... let me think about it."

Wang Jie looked at the plan again, drank water for half an hour, and finally gritted his teeth and said: "We can do what you said, but the plan must be useful. If it is useless, a full refund will be given."

"Okay, don't worry, you've made a lot of money." Lin Heng nodded.

This technology is worth 10,000 yuan, but there is no suitable object at this stage, and he needs cash now.

"I hope so." Wang Jie breathed a sigh of relief. This is also a gamble for him. His income last year was less than 3,000 yuan.

Afterwards, Wang Jie asked Lin Heng to go to the town with him to write an agreement and get the money.

Lin Heng said something to Xiulan, comforted his daughter, took the passbook and ID card and left with Wang Jie.

Wang Jie came by carriage, and it was also convenient to go back.
