Start as a farmer from an ordinary world

Chapter 201 Wang Manyin's Income

Fortunately, Rhubarb's sense of smell is very keen, and he soon found the woolly fox again.

Chasing and stopping all the way, finally drove this guy to the edge of the pond.

I probably saw rhubarb chasing its prey, and the peregrine falcon hovering high in space also swooped down.

"Zhizhi..." Maogeli let out a hasty scream and ran even faster.

The situation encountered by peregrine falcons is similar to that of dogs, surrounded by dense grass.It kept flapping its wings, watching the little guy fleeing close at hand, but it couldn't get close at all.

Chased by a dog and a falcon, the raccoon escaped quite gracefully, and finally jumped up and down on the reed pole.

This peregrine falcon is more restricted and can only circle around the periphery.

Rhubarb followed closely behind, constantly throwing down the reeds in front of him.

Wang Manyin looked a little speechless. Facing a small chipmunk, the hunting skills that the two guys were proud of seemed to be completely useless.

In this environment, those who are restrained to death, Kong has all the abilities he can't use.

Unless the woolly raccoons are now running to the open area to die, their busy work will be completely useless.

Wang Manyin was not prepared to let this thing continue to survive in the space.If you can't catch it as soon as possible, the food you have stored will be ruined.

It would be nice to lay out a trap... the idea sounds good, but the chances of it happening are slim.

There is too much food for Mao Geli in the main space: currently there are hundreds of catties of potatoes and sweet potatoes, as well as corn, wheat, soybeans, etc., and various vegetables.

Unless I move all these outside and come to a firm clear wall.

The point is to catch a chipmunk, and it's really not worth the fuss.

And even so, it may not be effective.The guy's diet also includes grass seeds, moss, and even various insects.

If you want to set up traps, you need at least hundreds of them to be effective.

If you really do this, it's too frustrating.

Seeing that the two guys were constantly deflated, Wang Manyin had no choice but to end it himself.He took the net bag and walked quickly to the reeds, preparing to encircle him on three sides.

In the end, before he got close, the little guy had already noticed the danger, and jumped into the water directly.

It saw its two little paws paddling water quickly, and then disappeared into the reeds on the other side in an instant.After Rhubarb and Peregrine Falcon reacted, they continued to repeat the previous actions...

Similar to bamboo, reeds can be reproduced by rhizome divisions, and the speed is very fast.Wang Manyin only introduced a dozen plants into the space, and in just over a year, the original pond has been completely surrounded.

He didn't expect this guy to be so difficult.

Go on like this, unless you cut off all the reed stubble yourself.

Forget it... it's just a chipmunk, and it can't eat much.Maybe one day he will be hunted by a peregrine falcon, why continue to toss about it.

In addition, next time you can bring two cats in for a try.

After thinking about it for a long time, Wang Manyin decided to let the other party go for the time being. It's more important to catch fish for dinner. Lanhua should be back soon.

After catching a grass carp weighing four to five catties, he returned to the outside world with rhubarb.After a while, he didn't hear the dog barking, and then walked out from the pigsty.

The grass carp was cleaned up and a large bowl was filled. Wang Manyin estimated that the couple would be full by only drinking fish soup and eating nests, so they decided not to cook dinner.

As for the grass carp given to the old father-in-law's house, when Shaoan passed by the door, let the other party take it home directly.In addition, they also got a lot of small crucian carp.

He waited until it was dark outside to make sure no one would come to the door before he started to light the fire.

Heat up the pan, first pour half a spoonful of peanut oil, then fry the marinated fish pieces, add water...

In just half an hour, the fish soup is ready.

Wang Manyin felt that his craftsmanship was getting better and better. The fish soup had almost no fishy smell, but had a unique fragrance.

Especially the fish, very fresh and tender.

He made a good guess, each drank two big bowls before scooping up the pot.

After dinner, take a walk along the village road as usual.

But it was too cold at night, fearing that the orchids would be frozen, so they didn't dare to walk for too long before returning.

The oil lamps were lit, and the kang was burned, and the whole cave dwelling was warm.

Lanhua was reading, while Wang Manyin practiced calligraphy with a brush and copybook.

The husband and wife do not interfere with each other.

The brightness of a kerosene lamp is too low, and reading is too taxing for the eyes.

Wang Manyin was not short of money, so he lit another lamp to brighten up the cave dwelling.

He misses the days when there will be electricity in future generations, but it is estimated that this wish will take at least ten years to come true.

Lan Hua has long been used to her husband's wasteful behavior, and she would not listen to persuasion, so she simply stopped talking.

It is said that Wang Manyin only practiced calligraphy at first to pass the time, but after a few months, he also found some feelings.The calligraphy I write now is not artistic, but at least it is barely readable.

It wasn't until after nine o'clock that the two turned off the lights.

Wang Manyin put his arms around his mother-in-law and talked about his plan to go to Mijia Town to buy new year's goods.

"Go the day after tomorrow, so early?" Lan Hua asked in surprise.

"The main reason is that I am afraid that it will snow heavily in the twelfth lunar month, and I may not be able to go there then."

Judging from last year's situation, the next heavy snowfall may not be able to walk on the dirt roads in the country for at least ten days, so if you want to sell fish, you'd better do it as early as possible.

"Man Yin, our family has just distributed a few hundred catties of food, and there is no shortage for the time being. Or, why don't you go to Mijia Town?" Lan Hua pressed against her husband's body, and spoke worriedly.

"There is no shortage of food, but there is a shortage of rice and white noodles. Besides, our family does not have much oil, and we need to fry vegetables for the New Year..."

When Wang Manyin went to the county seat before, he bought dozens of catties of white noodles at home, but he ate them all in more than a month.

"Let's save some if you don't have one. I'll just eat sorghum buns, and you can eat white flour buns..." In the end, Lan Hua still didn't want her husband to take risks.

In fact, she is very content with her current life.Before I got married, I had passed through Dundun Vegetable Soup.

"Stupid words again, you have two bodies now, you must have sufficient nutrition."

Wang Manyin put his hands on his belly, feeling a little life beating inside.

"Then why don't you go to the Shige Festival black market to buy it." Knowing that she couldn't be persuaded, Lan Hua said hesitantly.

"The black market in Shige Festival is a bit big, there are too few things, what can you buy?"

To put it bluntly, Wang Manyin went to Mijia Town this time not only to sell fish, but also to take out the things in the space.Although Lanhua has never been to the Black Market in Shige Festival, she has heard people talk about it many times and knows the general situation there.

If she brings back too many things at once, she will definitely be suspicious.In Mijia Town, the sky is high and the emperor is far away. Lan Hua definitely doesn't know what's going on in Pigeon City.

"Don't worry, your husband does things with a sense of purpose. So many times, there has never been an accident. If the management of Mijia Town is strict, I will just make a trip for nothing."

"What if the village doesn't issue a letter of introduction? Now the management is getting stricter, and I heard that there are inspections in many places."

"Don't worry about this, I've already prepared it."

With the current relationship between Wang Manyin and the village party secretary, as long as you say something, the other party will definitely give you a letter of introduction.

It’s just that you don’t need to be so troublesome. When he went to find Hu Yongzhou last time, he specially asked Wang Mandun to give him a few more blank introduction letters with stamps, which are still stored in the space memory.

If necessary, just fill it out.

"It's okay. Now our family has a bicycle. I will go there on the same day and return on the same day. I don't need to stay overnight."

Hearing this, Lan Hua didn't say anything more.

She has always been like this, when it comes to a man's decision, she can persuade her if she can, and if she can't persuade her, she will follow the man's wishes.

***
With a bicycle, it is indeed much more convenient for Wang Manyin to do things now.

He had eaten and left home at dawn, and he had already ridden ten miles in an hour.The main problem is that the road between Shigejie Commune and Mijia Town is full of potholes. In some places, it is impossible to walk by bicycle, otherwise the speed will be faster.

However, Wang Manyin heard Guo Chaowang mention it last time, as if the county was planning to rebuild this dirt road.After a while, it should be much easier to go.

After a while, Wang Manyin had already arrived at the outskirts of Mijia Town.

He randomly found a remote Gelao, put his bicycle into the space, and then went straight to the Shikoma coal mine purchase point.

Not surprisingly, Wang Manyin met his old acquaintance Li Ping there.

After seeing him, the other party also seemed very enthusiastic.

"Brother Wang, you finally appeared. I've been looking forward to it for almost a year. A few days ago, I asked many times at the market, and I said that I didn't see any fish for sale. It won't be Chinese New Year soon, and all kinds of materials in the mine All nervous..."

Li Ping has a sharper vision than ordinary people when doing procurement work.

After not seeing him for a year, he felt that the young man in front of him seemed to have changed a lot, and there was an indescribable meaning in his gestures.

"Brother Li, raising fish takes time, not jumping out from the cracks in the rocks."

Wang Manyin took the cigarette and put it on his ear as usual.

"Brother Wang, can you get it today?"

"Of course I can, otherwise why would I ask you? I can get almost four hundred catties of carp, do you want all of them?"

This time Wang Manyin did not intend to sell Xiaoyu, mainly because it was too troublesome.

"Brother Wang, what you're talking about, we have such a big coal mine, let alone four hundred catties, even one thousand catties is fine." Hearing this, Li Ping was even happier.

Then, he asked again: "Is it still the price of last year?"

Wang Manyin nodded, and said: "In addition to money, get me some tickets."

Although I don't lack living supplies now, I still need tickets sometimes, so there is no harm in having some on hand.

"Okay, according to Brother Wang, just ask for any ticket you want, and I'll let someone prepare it. But you know the current situation, I can't get too many tickets."

Li Ping will naturally try his best to be satisfied if he can get hundreds of catties of fish at a time by single-handedly punching the opponent.Coal mines are special supply units. Except for meat tickets, other tickets are not difficult.There is a shortage of major meat tickets everywhere, and even coal mines have a quota, otherwise they would not set up a purchase point in Mijia Town.

As for the fish sold by Brother Wang, Li Ping secretly guessed that it should be obtained from the south of Yuandong County.It is said that there are many fish farming villages there.Some production teams do not want to sell to supply and marketing cooperatives at a low price, so they will secretly send people to sell on the black market.

But if the other party didn't mention it, Li Ping naturally wouldn't go into it.

He didn't care where the fish came from, as long as he got them back to the mine.

Before coming to Mijia Town, Wang Manyin had already prepared the carp that needed to be sold, so it didn't take much.

Ten minutes later, he returned to the purchasing point with four snakeskin bags on his shoulder pole.The snakeskin bag was half full, and there were still living things bubbling inside, and water was dripping from the bottom.

Li Ping opened a bag and looked at it for a while, then began to arrange for people to weigh it.

These carp are very fresh and should have just come out of the water.After reading it, he was even more convinced of his judgment that there should be a production team secretly selling fish.

Four and a half carps in snakeskin bags, a total of [-] catties.

Then, Wang Manyin picked a second trip...a ​​total of 430 seven catties.

Li Ping readily gave 400 yuan, and exchanged the rest for tickets.

Then, he enthusiastically sent Wang Manyin outside the hospital.

When we parted, Li Ping asked again: "Brother Wang, did you come here a year ago?"

"I won't sell it anymore. The production team has already caught all the fish this year, and we will sell it again in the twelfth lunar month next year." Wang Manyin said casually, and set off with a shoulder pole.

After walking not far, he entered Pigeon City.

It was almost noon now, and the whole market was deserted, with only a few people selling green onions and farm tools sticking around.

After Wang Manyin took a few glances, he left in disappointment and turned into the state-run hotel.

With money in his pocket, he naturally wouldn't treat himself badly, so he immediately ordered a bowl of haggis soup and a few dried pancakes.After filling my stomach, I bought a few more catties of oily buns.

It wasn't until he was riding his bicycle on his way home that Wang Manyin completely relaxed.

This trip was full of rewards, and the money on hand once again exceeded [-].

When you go to Huangyuan City, you can continue to buy some cultural relics and antiques for storage.

Knowing that Lanhua was worried about him, Wang Manyin was eager to return and rode fast all the way.

Hurry up, he has already returned home before the other party gets off work.

Taking advantage of the fact that there was no one at home at the moment, Wang Manyin took twenty catties of flour, ten catties of rice, and half a can of rapeseed oil from the space...

When Lan Hua rushed to the door of the house and saw a familiar figure on the sidelines, her heart was at peace all day long.

After two heavy snowfalls, it was the twelfth lunar month in a blink of an eye.It is said that because the laborers of the second team were not in the village, the atmosphere of chasing hares was much cooler than last year.But with rhubarb on the horse, the harvest is not bad.

Twice in a row, more than ten hares were caught.This time Wang Lianshun did not stew the rabbit meat in the breeding room compound, but directly peeled the skin and distributed it to each family.

After the weather cleared up again, Wang Manyin started planning to go to the food station to hand in the task pigs again.

Some people like to feed the pigs until the end of the twelfth lunar month in order to allow them to gain a few more pounds of meat.Wang Manyin didn't have the patience, so he planned to sell it early, and it didn't make much sense to grow a few catties of meat by feeding him for ten days and a half months.

Before setting off, like everyone else, he also fed a pot full of feed to his fat pigs.

After queuing at the food station, he stuffed a pack of cigarettes for the staff early.In fact, with his current relationship at the food station, this step can be completely omitted.

But everyone else is in the same way, and Wang Manyin doesn't want to specialize.

In the end, it weighed 180 three catties, estimated to be 5 catties, and could be sold for 99 yuan and sixty-eight cents, with some whole and some zero.

This is the achievement of Wang Manyin and Lanhua for a year.

The other members of the pig selling club didn't say anything about the fact that the pig in his family could be rated as a special class.

On the one hand, Wang Manyin is quite a celebrity in Shigejie Commune.On the other hand, the main pig looks really good.The body is round and full of flesh.

It's not like other people who feed pigs like pigs, and only see their stomachs covered in feces.
