Start as a farmer from an ordinary world

Chapter 108

When Wang Manyin returned to Yangweigou, he only called out: "Good guy!"

It's just outrageous to open the door to outrageous - outrageous home!

I far underestimated the boldness of Wang Manjun.This person not only called all the male laborers in a team to dig the keel, but even many women and aunts joined in.

Fortunately, Wang Lianshun had the foresight to occupy the cliff ditch with the most abundant resources first.Otherwise, there is really no way to reason with such a large group of people rushing forward.

Today's harvest is also not small. When I go home at night, I loaded two donkey carts full of earth keels.

On the third day, people from Shuangshui Village also came after hearing the news.Wang Manyin also saw the figure of the old father-in-law in it, waving the hammer head very vigorously.

In the afternoon, the left-behind members of Shichuan Village also got the news.They walked for more than ten miles and joined the keel digging team with their heads on their shoulders.

Of course, these people came too late, and the good places have been occupied long ago, so they can only search around the corners.

In addition, there are people from Shigejie Village...

In short, the entire Yagou has completely become a large construction site.

There was a lot of people's voices and heat everywhere, and piles of red clay were splashed on the bottom of the cliff ditch.It saves the second team the effort of digging, and they can directly carry it up with a shoulder pole later.

Two or three hundred people dug the cave together, and the scene was almost chaotic.Wang Manyin was worried throughout the whole process, for fear that someone would accidentally dig up the mountain and it would be a big accident.

Fortunately, not all the red clay layers have fossil distribution. If everyone can't dig the earth keel, they will keep changing their positions.

Therefore, most of the caves were not dug too deep, and nothing happened.

The second team of Guanzi Village was the first to strike, and occupied an area with the richest resources, so of course they gained the most.In one week, the entire fossil layer was almost completely excavated, with a full excavation of more than 3000 catties.

Mainly in the first two days, the harvest is big.

As more and more people came to dig the keel from the surrounding villages, the number was much smaller in the next few days, and only more than 1000 catties were dug.

In the end, dozens of people were busy for a long time, but they could only dig a few pieces.

Seeing this, Wang Lianshun decisively ended the operation.

The team over there probably dug more than 1000 catties, and the rest of Shuangshui Village and Shichuan Village did not harvest much, at most a few hundred catties.

Rao is so, for these laborers, it is not a small gain.

Wang Lianshun originally planned to use the village donkey cart to transport the earth keel to the supply and marketing cooperative for sale, but after Wang Manyin contacted, things became easier.

The other party directly sent a few horse-drawn carriages to the door for service, and weighed and issued tickets on the spot.

In fact, the operation mode of supply and marketing cooperatives is quite flexible now, and many times they will organize people to serve in the villages.

The price is the same as mentioned before, and the earth keel is divided into several grades.Keels with teeth are the most expensive, followed by others...

More than 3000 catties, and finally sold for more than 560 yuan.For the second team, it is a huge sum of money.

The other team also sold a few hundred yuan.

In fact, strictly speaking, their actions this time can be regarded as sideline business.However, the nature of this collective behavior is somewhat vague, and the duration is short, so it was not stopped by relevant personnel.

After the money arrived in the account, Wang Lianshun did not make people wait for it.With a big wave of his hand, all the laborers participating in the excavation of earth keels will be paid one yuan and fifty cents per day, and another seventy work points will be counted.

Even though each person only got [-] yuan, it made everyone very excited... At least there is no shortage of money to buy kerosene this year.

After the chicken plague, most of the dark clouds hanging over Guanzi Village finally dissipated.

***
After dinner in the evening, Wang Manyin said hello to Lanhua, and then swayed towards Wang Lianshun's house.

When the construction site finished in the afternoon, the other party specifically explained that they would hold a small meeting with a few people in the evening.

After so many things, Wang Manyin is definitely a figure in the second team now, and he is naturally indispensable in the meeting.

When Wang Lianshun visited Wang Manyin's house, Wang Manyin found that Xie Gong was also there.

It seems that the meeting tonight is still related to the construction of the earth dam.

Sure enough, when everyone arrived, Wang Lianshun cleared his throat and went straight to the point.

"The earth-rock dam of our second team is about to be built, and now we have a new problem, that is how to store water. The first idea is to wait for the summer flood to break out, and we will just stop the water and check the dam. If that is the case, there will be no other way To grow rice, we can only grow winter wheat in autumn. In addition, there is fish farming, so I’m afraid we have to put it back. The new year is only a few months away, and the fish grow slowly in cold weather, so we can only wait for the next spring to make plans.”

Hearing the other party's narration, many people fell into a state of contemplation.

Growing rice was a new thing, and they were thinking a little too simplisticly in advance.An irrigation problem alone is a big problem.

Wang Manyin had considered this matter thoroughly in advance.However, he didn't speak out immediately, but wanted to see what other ideas everyone had.

"My idea is to plant rice early and get an early harvest, so I can't hope for the harvest and wait for autumn.

Later, I asked the village party secretary to go to the commune to make connections and borrow a water pump for us.By the way, you can check if there is any problem with the newly built dam..."

"However, Xie Gong and Liu Xiangyang have different opinions. They said that the rice needs a lot of water during the grain filling period. We can't always borrow the commune's water pump. It's better for the second team to buy a set of water pumping equipment."

"How much is a set of water pumping equipment?" Wang Manyin pointed to the source of the matter.

As an expert in water conservancy, Xie Shouzheng is very familiar with these things.He immediately replied: "The water pump is not expensive, it only costs a few hundred yuan. But the water pump alone is not enough. It must have related supporting facilities, such as diesel engines and generator sets... After calculating these, it costs 4000 yuan."

"What? Three 4000 yuan! Xie Gong, how dare you say that the dividends of our second team were not so much last year... What can we buy it with?" After listening to Wang Fugui, he shook his head again and again, and the whole person almost jumped out of the kang. jump up.

A few days ago, he earned more than 1000 yuan from selling earth keels. He originally thought that the second team would finally have a prosperous year this year, and the work points might reach [-] to [-] cents. .

As a result, the money has not yet warmed up, and it has to be spent again.And according to Xie Gong's plan, the holes they will create will be even bigger in the future.

"Uncle Fugui, you can't just do economic calculations, you should also consider the benefits of the water pump. When there is a drought, you can also irrigate other crops. Our climate on the Loess Plateau has droughts in nine out of ten years. In previous years, the Dongla River has experienced droughts. Water can only be drained for nothing... If there is a water pump, it will definitely come in handy." At this time, Liu Xiangyang retorted loudly.

Hearing this, Wang Fugui hesitated.

Let's just say, this water pump is really a good thing.Due to the lack of manpower for the second team, when there was drought in previous years, those plots on the Taiwan plateau had to be abandoned.

There are only a few irrigated fields in the Chuan Dao that are relatively close to the Dongla River, so members of the commune can be organized to carry water to fight the drought, and they can barely harvest some crops.

If there is a water pump, it will definitely be able to distribute more food to the villagers in the event of a severe drought.

"I admit that the water pump is a good thing. The key is that we are still short of 3000 yuan. Where can we find it? Now there is no earth keel to dig."

"Then take a loan!" Wang Manyin directly expressed the thought that had been hidden in his heart.

He had known about relevant policies long ago. In this era, people are very good and rural cooperative credit cooperatives can provide loans to rural areas.

Moreover, the loan conditions are particularly loose, not only for large groups, but also for individuals.

In this era, farmers do not have commercial housing, so the mortgage conditions required for loans are very simple: "All the members of the cooperative can benefit from the farmland as a guarantee, and if necessary, the production team they belong to can also guarantee it."

Read the terms carefully and you'll be able to figure out the twists and turns... To put it bluntly, this is actually an unsecured loan.

The so-called "income from farmland as a guarantee" refers to the rations allocated to the farmers in the production team for one year.This process of distributing grain does not need to go through the credit union at all, so it can be safely collected in the granary of the family.

As for the year-end dividends...the production team has a lot of overspending households.

But what surprised Wang Manyin was that many farmers on the Loess Plateau would rather go hungry and have no money at home than ask for a loan from the bank.

Their idea is very simple, they have no money, and they will not be able to repay the loan.

Wang Manyin has seen too many old Lai of all kinds in later generations.

Many of these old Lai believe in "the one who owes the money is the uncle", even if they have money, they are unwilling to pay it back.

On the other hand, farmers in this era can only be said to be too honest, and dare not take advantage of the opportunity.

If you really can't get it... then you can't get it, and it's impossible to get your credit.

Few people know that in this era, banks have a hidden welfare provision: every few years, they will take the initiative to clean up some old loans that cannot be repaid, and perform loan forgiveness (the loss of exemption is subsidized by the bank policy).

To put it simply, if the farmers don't pay, the bank won't want the money.

Even so, few farmers on the Loess Plateau are willing to take out loans.

Wang Manyin has read relevant materials in later generations. In this regard, southerners are more courageous.

According to the materials, the credit union of a certain commune alone exempted nearly 17 farmers from the Poor Peasant Cooperation Fund loan of 100 yuan in one year.Among them, more than [-] million yuan of collective agriculture and fishery loans were exempted, and tens of thousands of yuan of social enterprise loans were exempted...

After more than ten years, the large group disbanded, and many production teams left a lot of bad debts to the bank.In the end, it's the same thing...

In other words, if the second team of Guanzi Village sincerely wants to be an old Lai, this debt can be dragged on forever, and it will not be paid back if it rots.

But this was too much of a mistake, Wang Manyin didn't dare to tell Wang Lianshun and the others.

"How can we repay the loan? Besides, is the credit union willing to lend?" Wang Fugui began to pour cold water on it again.I always feel that if I borrow thousands of yuan at a time, I will definitely not be able to get it.

"How do you know if you don't try it? What if it works." Liu Xiangyang also said without waiting for Wang Manyin to speak.Young people are bold and more willing to fight.What's more, he still wants to take advantage of this matter to go further.

"Then let's send someone to ask tomorrow?" Wang Lianshun hesitated and asked.

He also felt a little guilty about taking a loan of several thousand yuan at a time, and didn't know when he would be able to repay it.
