Reborn 1980, Mountains Have Spirits, I Have Fields

Chapter 37 Entertaining Guests
Father's hearty laughter came from the main room.

Ling Mei heard Genbao say loudly, "Brother Xiao. Needless to say, I can recognize your vegetable field at a glance."

Manager Cui smiled and said, "That's right. Brother Xiao's vegetables are green and green, with two rows of red tomatoes in the middle. The growth is much better than other families."

"That's all my daughter's ability." Yue Shan was extremely proud. "Without her picking seedlings, our vegetables wouldn't grow so well."

Manager Cui has long been convinced by Xiao Jiacai.Today, let me tell you what to come and experience a new paradigm of "scientific vegetable growing".He laughed and praised repeatedly, "Blue comes out of blue, blue comes out of blue."

"Sit down first and drink some tea. The meal will be ready in a while. Our place is no different from the town. It's just a rough meal. Don't dislike it, both of you."

"Brother Xiao is so polite. I can already smell it. Your food, Ling!" Manager Cui poured Xie Genbao a cup of tea familiarly. "Today, let's try authentic farm dishes."

Genbao raised his eyes to see Lingmei, and said happily, "Student Xiao is back. Thank you for going up the mountain to help us find game."

Ling Mei greeted them generously, and asked Gen Bao with a smile: "Uncle Xie, why didn't you let Xie Hang come to play with you?"

Genbao laughed and said, "That brat, he refused to come when he heard that he was going to climb a mountain. Besides, we are doing business, and if he wants to come, I won't let him come."

Surprise flashed across Manager Cui's eyes.Unexpectedly, Yunlai Village still hides such a beautiful and charming girl as Lingmei.

"Xie Hang is a top student in our school. The principal thinks highly of him." Ling Mei naturally sat beside them and talked about interesting things that happened in school, which made Chef Xie and Manager Cui very happy.

Laughter came into Linghui's room, and he covered his ears irritatedly: Are you going to let me study again?
What does Xiao Lingmei look like as a girl, talking and laughing in front of outsiders?
Under the arrangement of her sister, Ling Yun has already started to draw red to read and do some simple addition and subtraction.As if he didn't hear the voice outside, he silently recited the multiplication formula.

Seeing his younger brother's serious appearance, Ling Hui sneered: "Pretending."He didn't know the multiplication formula by heart until he was in the second grade.

Today's lunch is a plate of stewed braised large intestine, fragrant Q bomb; a plate of stir-fried cabbage heart, sweet and crisp; a plate of fried morel mushrooms with green peppers, rare mushrooms such as morels surprise the guests when they are served on the table.Not to mention the strange aroma, the soup in the mushroom cap fills the mouth during chewing. It tastes like meat but not meat. It is chewy and crisp and refreshing.

Yueshan killed a chicken raised at home, and Guixiang made a chicken casserole.The last thing on the table was the long-awaited grass carp and fish sashimi by the Yuntao duo.

Manager Cui tasted the yusheng with wasabi puree and was amazed.Although the way of eating is novel, the taste is unique.He was full of emotions: "How long has it been since you have eaten such a good yusheng? Brother Xiao, I heard from Ling Ai that you want to raise rice flower fish?"

Yueshan only got the information yesterday, and he and Lingmei studied it until midnight.Experts are experts. They start from the selection and cultivation of fish fry, and even draw the distribution of the size of fish ponds.There are also very detailed records of how wide and deep the fish fry living area should be in the rice field, how deep the water should be, how many fish should be kept, and the feed that is usually fed.

As long as Xiao Yueshan followed suit, basically nothing would go wrong.

He smiled happily: "The preparations have already begun. The construction will officially start next month."

Manager Cui nodded frequently: "Okay. This rice flower fish has been a tribute since ancient times. It's just that it can't be raised very much and the income is small. If you can raise it well, we Yuntao Restaurant will make it round!"

Xie Genbao continued: "Don't worry about the price, our state-owned unit will never cheat you. It must be traded on the basis of quality, and there is no deception."

Xiao Yueshan held up the rice wine and said with a hearty smile: "Then here is a toast to the two of you, we have a happy cooperation."

Ling Yun hurriedly raised his own bowl and shouted: "Cheers, cheers." Everyone's glasses were touched, and then they buried their heads in eating.

Xie Genbao especially liked beautiful children, and praised: "The children in Brother Xiao's family are better than each other." He picked up a chicken wing for Ling Yun, "I will learn from your sister in the future. She is beautiful, has good grades, is smart and capable."

Ling Hui glanced at Ling Mei with heavy eyes, and felt a sense of something in his heart.

After the meal, Manager Xie and Yueshan signed a detailed contract on the prices of each dish.

Lingmei insisted on dividing her own dishes into two grades, high-grade and medium-grade, with different prices, and the dishes were delivered four times a week.Settlement is based on actual quantity every day.Yue Shan felt that his daughter had ideas and the ability to put them into practice, and he was happy to see them come to fruition.How did you know that it was the daughter's trick to cover up that the vegetables in the space are better than the vegetables in your own field?

In the end, there was only one big question left: "Manager Cui, how do you get this dish to the restaurant?" Ling Mei wanted to ask his father to borrow a tricycle, but the amount ordered by Yuntao Restaurant was twice as much as she thought.Two tricycles in the village are not enough.

"Leave this to us." Manager Cui said with a smile, "Our restaurant has a van, which is specially used to buy goods. You send the vegetables to the intersection at the foot of the mountain, and our car will pick them up."

"That's great." Xiao Yueshan smiled from ear to ear.This saves him a lot of effort, and he can concentrate on cultivating rice flower fish.

After seeing off the guests, Yueshan immediately called a family meeting.

"Starting tomorrow, our family will deliver food to Yuntao Restaurant." Father Xiao smiled seriously, "You should have heard the restaurant's request just now. We have to deliver at least three hundred catties of vegetables every day. We usually sell a la carte Well, Lingmei and I can harvest the harvest two nights ago. With the current supply, we need the whole family to go to the field to help."

Ling Hui frowned when he heard this, and before he could speak, he was called by his father: "Ling Hui, you are the eldest son of the family. It doesn't make sense for my sister and mother to work in the dark, and you stay in the room and read books to avoid trouble. Starting today, You go down to the field and cut vegetables together."

This time Guixiang didn't tell her son that this is a big deal to make money.There can be no gaps in signing a good contract.How can Ling Hui stay out of it?At most, when he was working, I would help him a little more.

Seeing his mother's expression of approval, Ling Hui had no choice but to reluctantly agree.

Yue Shan said with satisfaction: "Okay. There is great strength in numbers. Let's get all the dishes ready before the clouds set."

The parents of Yuefeng's family next door were overjoyed when they heard that the elder son's family had negotiated a big contract.In the evening, seeing their family even Ling Yun dispatched to the field to collect vegetables, Xiao Yuanliang couldn't sit still, and they went down to the field together.

Yue Shan hurriedly persuaded him: "Father, don't mess with your work. We can do it."

Xiao Yuanliang said with a smile: "I'll pick the tomatoes for you. Ah, the vegetables here grow really well."

Yue Shan had no choice but to tell his father to be careful.

Ling Mei took advantage of everyone's hard work, and unknowingly piled up the vegetables in the space in every corner.When the last piece was weighed, her grandfather was dumbfounded: "Yueshan, the yield in your field is so high?"

Lingmei turned her head away guiltily.

Yue Shan pointed at his daughter and said, "It's not Lingmei who responded to the country's call to use advanced pesticides and raise seedlings in advance. I didn't expect the effect to be so good."

Xiao Yuanliang couldn't help nodding his head, looking at Ling Mei with a loving face: "Okay, okay. My Lingmei has not read all these years in vain."

Yue Shan's heart moved, and he took the opportunity to say: "Father, I just wanted to tell you something. Ling Mei has good grades and is smart. After the family earns more money, if there is more money, I want Ling Mei to continue to study in high school."

Xiao Yuanliang's smile froze.

"Study high school? How much does that cost?" He looked at Ling Hui and Ling Yun, frowning like a caterpillar.He said earnestly, "If you have money, you can't waste it. You have to save it."

Yueshan's smile remained unchanged: "Father, you have already said that Lingmei has not read books in vain all these years. It would be even better if she could study more deeply, and then come back from a university. What do you think will be the scene at that time?"

Xiao Yuanliang was horrified: "University, University——"

Yue Shan took it for granted, "Isn't going to high school just to get into college?"

Xiao Yuanliang stomped his feet: "Nonsense. Is it so easy for a golden phoenix to fly out of the mountain nest? Wake up." After speaking, he shook his hand and left.

Yue Shan doesn't chase him, and Ling Mei doesn't care about Grandpa's attitude, and is diligently dividing the vegetables into two.

Yue Shan saw the two dishes clearly, and said in surprise, "Don't tell me, you are so divided, you really can tell the difference."

The best dishes are generally larger and more beautiful.

Ling Mei smiled and said, "It's not a loss, is it?"

"It's not a loss." Yueshan helped put the vegetables into the baskets, and the baskets were stacked on the edge of the field, which was quite spectacular.

Guixiang went home first to cook dinner.The men in the family need to eat more honest food to survive this busy meal.

The leftover fish head and fish tail soup at noon, tomato scrambled eggs, more eggs and more oil.The Chinese New Year's cured bacon was cut into small pieces and fried with Chinese cabbage, and two large plates of vegetarian dishes were fried, and a pot full of brown rice was steamed.

As a result, the people from Yueshan came back in good spirits.Even Ling Hui was surprised, tired, but not as unbearable as he imagined.After a full meal, everyone fell asleep.
