Chapter 508 Chapter 508, First Acquisition

In late February, Baiyun Village.

During this week, the whole village was busy for a while. It can be said that all the men, women and children in the village were busy.

Men with strong bodies have joined the construction team, building houses one after another in full swing. Now that the population of the village has exploded, the speed of building houses has also greatly accelerated.

Today's Baiyun Village has a total of 120 households. This number of households is definitely considered a relatively prosperous village among the surrounding villages. You must know that there were only a few households in Baiyun Village before, and now it has grown dozens of times in less than half a year.

There are an average of ten people in each family, and the minimum number of people in the village is more than 1000 to 2000 people. If you add the [-] or so prisoners who have been recruited, the total number of people in Baiyun Village is almost [-] people.

Among them, young and middle-aged men between the ages of 16 and 40 accounted for at least half of the number, and Song Shaoqin mobilized 200 reform-through-labour prisoners to dig coal on the mountain, and the rest of his strength was allocated to infrastructure in the village.

Therefore, the speed of this infrastructure construction is not uncommon.

More than 1000 people started construction at the same time, and several bungalows could be built in almost a few days. The progress that had fallen before was not only successfully completed, but even surpassed the previous estimated progress.

Now based on the number of households, each registered household already has their own new house, but the work of the construction team has not stopped, and they are still building houses non-stop.

However, the building facilities built now are no longer a single bungalow, but there are basic places such as schools, textile workshops, food processing workshops, clinics, and canteens.

At the same time, the engineering department also assigned a team to start building cement roads in the village. In this way, there is no need to worry about the bumpy ground on rainy days, and it is also convenient for daily walking.

In short, today's Baiyun Village has fully started infrastructure construction.

Some of the women in the village are learning weaving, and some are cooking in the big cafeteria. As for the younger girls, they attend classes on time every day, and the older girls and daughters-in-law learn to embroider.

Even the old people in the family are not idle. The old lady is responsible for growing and looking after the mushrooms, and the old men are also taking care of their own vegetable fields. In this season, some small vegetables can still be grown.

Therefore, if you walk in the village during this time, you will see the busy figures of the villagers.

And today is the day when the first batch of artificially cultivated mushrooms are harvested!

Early in the morning, the village became lively. Every family carefully picked the grown mushrooms and put them into clean bamboo baskets.

Afterwards, everyone joyfully came to the compound of the village committee with bamboo baskets on their hands.

"How is it? How many mushrooms did your family collect?"

"Not bad, the two kinds of mushrooms add up to more than three catties."

"Hehe, the mushrooms in your house grow really well."

"Hahaha~ My mother is more attentive in serving you."

Everyone stood in the compound and began to inquire about each other, wanting to see how the mushroom harvest of other families was.

"Okay, everyone, make a good team, come one by one."

Village head Li shouted with a small trumpet while directing the team.

At this time, in the center of the compound, five tables were placed side by side, and five staff members were responsible for collecting mushrooms for everyone. The villagers were divided into five teams in an orderly manner.

Even though the queue was long, everyone was smiling and waiting patiently in line.

"Li Dashuang, qualified, two and a half catties."

"Zhang Laoshuan, qualified, three catties."

"Zhao Dafu, qualified, four catties."

"Cheng Changfu, qualified, five catties."

"Liu is honest, qualified, two catties."

The sound of singing and newspapers echoed in the compound, and every family that passed the inspection would sign the registration form or press a fingerprint after receiving the mushrooms.

In order to encourage and mobilize everyone's enthusiasm, Xia Ning adopted the method of on-site settlement, directly paying the money and delivering the goods on the spot.

Therefore, when the villagers received a large amount of copper coins, the smiles on their faces became even brighter.

At this moment, the feeling of holding the money in your hand is simply extremely comfortable, and all the worries and assumptions in everyone's hearts before that have disappeared.

The cooperation method proposed by Ms. Xia is better!

It's so convenient.

How good it is that one kind of good mushroom at home can be exchanged for money immediately, without any troubles or worries.

Before everyone heard Ms. Xia say that mushrooms can be bought for 25 Wen, but if they were sold to her, [-] Wen per catty would be deducted. At first, everyone felt a little distressed. After all, [-] catty is [-] Wen, and [-] catties would cost [-] Wen.

This amount of money is not too little for the country people.

At first everyone was still thinking to themselves, if they sold it in the town by themselves, wouldn't they be able to earn an extra five cents per catty?

It can be seen that other people chose to cooperate with Miss Xia, even those who were a little cautious did not dare to speak up.

But now the villagers who were eager to try to buy mushrooms by themselves immediately gave up all their thoughts and thoughts.

Because they found it very comfortable to get the money immediately in this way. If they were really asked to sell it themselves, they might not be able to sell it for thirty cents.

Therefore, these country people should farm the land honestly and obey the arrangements and instructions of the village committee.

After all, the 25 coins were originally earned extra.

In one morning, the Ministry of Agriculture received a total of more than 250 kilograms of mushrooms, which directly filled the entire truck.

In the afternoon, Xia Ning took people to Pingsha Town with the mushrooms that the villagers planted with care.

Of course, it was still the previous operation method, Bai Po and Hu Zi stayed outside the town and waited, while Xia Ning brought Jing Ze into the town as a sister and brother.

Xia Ning didn't bring Qiaoxin this time, because the car was full of goods and couldn't fit so many people, so she left her in the village to do other work.

As soon as she entered the town, Xia Ning immediately felt that the atmosphere was not very good. The whole street felt lifeless, and there was an inexplicable sense of decay that the vitality was gradually disappearing.

"Ozawa, do you feel that the whole town feels a little different?"

"Well, it's more depressed than last time." Song Jingze nodded secretly, and subconsciously touched the saber hidden in his waist.

Xia Ning whispered, "Let's be careful."

The two walked quickly through the main street of the town, and found that there were more and more closed shops on both sides, and there were not many people on the whole street, and even the residential houses in the alley were closed.

The town, which was not very bustling and lively before, is now even more deserted and lonely. If not for seeing a few figures from time to time, Xia Ning would have thought they had entered a ghost town.

It's a bit scary to be empty!
