Rebirth in 88 starts as a carpenter

After two lifetimes, Wu Yuan understood many things.

But there are also many things that I still don’t understand.

Friendship between women is one of them.

Obviously they are two women who should least interact with each other, but they can get along like sisters.

Even be honest with each other in the room.

Listening to the chirping sounds coming from the room, Wu Yuan licked the porridge in the bowl faster.

After finishing the meal three times, five times, five times, and two times, he put the bowls and chopsticks into the pool.

He wiped his mouth and walked out the door.

When I walked to the village road behind my house, I met many old ladies from the village, riding their noisy bicycles to the mulberry fields to pick mulberry leaves.

Only then did Wu Yuan realize that the autumn silkworms in the village were beginning to eat mulberry leaves.

A single silkworm needs at least a tight pocket of mulberry leaves.

In ten days and a half, we will have to pull a flatbed truck to pick mulberry leaves. Without ten or eight bags of mulberry leaves, we can't cope with it in one day.

According to this cycle, this year's autumn silkworms should be sent up the mountain before the rice harvest.

Then he turned around and got into the busy work of harvesting and threshing rice.

It can be seen that farmers are really suffering.

Wu Yuan exchanged pleasantries from time to time along the way. When he reached the village, he met Xu Zhaodi driving over.

It was said that Yang Luoyan called me.

It seems that he agreed to Teacher Song's request and took the two children to play at Erdaogenzi's house for a day.

As long as his wife Yang Luoyan agrees to this matter, Wu Yuan has no objection.

It would be nice to let the two children experience the real pastoral life.

After all, the vegetable garden, grape trellis, loofah seedlings and even pumpkin vines in Teacher Song’s home are all taken care of with unique artistry.

Wu Yuan had seen it before.

In comparison, my own vegetable garden is too wild and too wild to be used.

Seeing the big car passing by, Wu Yuan turned around and entered the village compound.

Strangely, there were many people gathered in the village courtyard, and their faces looked a little strange.

But Wu Yuan looked at this group of people, and these people looked at Wu Yuan, but they didn't feel like they were divided.

Some even nodded and smiled with good intentions.

Wu Yuan walked straight in and didn't understand until he saw Old Mao Li and Wang Wufu sitting in the village office.

I bet these are people from Shangwei Village and Xiawei Village.

When the village chiefs of the two villages saw Wu Yuan arriving, they all stood up and started to disperse their cigarettes.

Don’t look at the monk’s face but look at the Buddha’s face.

After all, many of the strong laborers in the two villages were working for others.

Wu Yuan picked up a plum from Village Chief Wang who was sitting near the door, and sat down at the other end of the big bench where Village Chief Wang was sitting.

Being closer to the door, the air is relatively fresh.

After nodding at the plum blossoms, I heard two village chiefs who had come from afar talk to the three elders in the village about purchasing mulberry leaves.

The purchase of mulberry leaves has also been mentioned in the village before.

After all, the size of the sericulture households in Liyuan Village is not up to standard, and the mulberry fields of each family are actually of high quality.

There will definitely be more mulberry leaves in the future.

But the village didn't expect that before the demand for mulberry leaves was at its peak, the village chiefs of the two villages would bring people over.

At this time, there is not much demand for mulberry leaves.

Moreover, the mulberry leaves of the mulberry tree have not grown to their best yet, so there is some caution when picking up the mulberry leaves.

Leave the young leaves at the top and the small leaves at the bottom unpicked, and only pick the few leaves in the middle.

After waiting for a period of time, there is still a possibility that the mulberry branch will sprout, and the mulberry tree will be more vigorous and grow more leaves next year.

But in this way, the matter of picking mulberry leaves is obviously more complicated.

If my family had collected their own mulberry leaves, I would still be able to have such patience.

But if you let outsiders spend money to buy mulberry leaves and pick them yourself, you are afraid that in order to save trouble, you will just pick one branch to the end.

In this case, the subsequent growth and branching of the mulberry tree will become a big problem.

Everyone was arguing.

Wu Yuan could vaguely understand, but couldn't get a word in.

Rural people have always been very cunning.

Since Party Secretary Yang and Lao Xu are concerned about this issue, it means that it is inevitable.

After all, these two have been working at the grassroots level for many years, and they are very knowledgeable about this matter in the village.

But the right to speak on this matter does not entirely lie with Liyuan Village.

Because when the cocoons come out, the village still hopes to receive some goods from nearby villages so that they can deliver missions to the countryside and complete the task.

Therefore, the relationship should not be too tense.

However, when Wu Yuan appeared, both Village Chief Wang and Village Chief Li seemed to restrain themselves.

The three parties discussed the matter and soon came to an acceptable result.

That is, Liyuan Village is responsible for picking mulberry leaves and bagging them, and the other two villages send people to take them away directly.

It not only ensures the normal growth and management of mulberry trees in the village, but also solves the problem of difficulty in supervising the collection of mulberry leaves.

In the end, the three parties went directly to the village to weigh the mulberry leaves.

Pay the money with one hand and deliver the goods with the other hand.

easy to understand.

In this way, Village Chief Wang and Village Chief Li, as well as some people from the two villages, were sent away.

The village immediately became quiet.

The next step is to discuss how to mobilize the unemployed old women in the village and allocate the work of picking mulberry leaves every day.

It is necessary to deduct part of the cost of purchasing mulberry leaves from the two villages as wages for picking mulberry leaves, and set aside part as the start-up capital for subsequent cocooning.

But generally speaking, if you dump silkworm cocoons, the village can't get much money.

Therefore, most of the mulberry leaves from the two villages can be used as wages for the ladies in the village to generate income.

Of course, this part of the money itself is not much.

After discussing this, Lao Xutou said with a smile: "Compared with the things in your factory, these things in the village are too trivial, right?"

Wu Yuan did not take him lightly. He laughed loudly and said, "Uncle Xu, if it was really a trivial matter, I would have left a long time ago. How can I still hear you now?"

The three elders showed interested expressions.

Just listen to Wu Yuan continue: "In fact, in the final analysis, it is a matter of balancing the interests of all parties. If we get this right, there is hope that things can be done."

Accountant Li immediately slapped the table and said, "Look at the big boss, it's different when he opens his mouth. He's so lofty and lofty. It makes me feel that all his thinking just now was not in vain."

Yang Zhishu took out a piece of Huazi from his cigarette case and distributed it to several people, saying: "Actually, with this year's situation and a good harvest of rice, I'm already half-hearted. Planting mulberry and raising silkworms is a trivial matter. What's wrong?

It can be done, but it can’t be changed at all.”

"...In years like these, which one didn't cost a few lives?"

Old Xu Tou and Accountant Li both stopped talking.

He just nodded silently and smoked silently.

It wasn't until almost all the money was spent that Old Xu Tou suddenly said: "After all, it's all thanks to Xiao Yuan."

Wu Yuan hurriedly stood up and gave the elders more money and said: "Uncle Xu, please don't wear a high hat on me. If you wear it again, I will have to treat you to a drink."

Accountant Li grabbed the opportunity and said, "If you want to invite me, it's us who invite you!"
