Chapter 32
Until it was completely dark, Wang Manyin's house finally completely quieted down.

He let go of the rhubarb first, and then he was ready to make dinner.

With this guy guarding the goal, we can have a good meal at night.Eating two corn nests at noon is not very hungry at all, and my stomach is growling early.

Not to mention, catch two crucian carps and steam them, then fry a plate of soft eggs, stew some white rice, and have a delicious meal.

There is no pressure cooker or rice cooker these days, so if you want to eat rice, you can only stew it in an iron pot.

At the beginning, Wang Manyin couldn't control the stewed rice, either the bottom of the pot was mushy, or it was half-cooked.

Later, I found a trick, mainly to put more water.Wait until the rice is almost simmered, then scoop out the excess water.

I bought ten catties of rice before, but I didn't dare to eat it at all, and now there is not much left.

But don't worry, the experiment of cultivating rice seedlings has been successful.

Practice has proved that rice grains can really germinate, and the germination rate is not particularly low.According to Wang Manyin's speculation, the rice he bought from the black market is likely to be threshed by farmers using local methods, so the germ retention rate is relatively high.

For this reason, he deliberately divided the space into several parts for rice cultivation.

If there are no accidents, space brand rice will be available in a few months.

After filling his stomach and cleaning up the pots and bowls, Wang Manyin began to settle accounts under the kerosene lamp.

I don't know, I was taken aback.

In one day, the consignment point earned nearly 20 yuan, plus more than 50 eggs.Calculated, it can be commissioned more than one yuan.

Of course, this is the reason for the opening on the first day, and it is estimated that there will not be so many in the future.

I was too tired today, so Wang Manyin went straight to the kang to sleep after finishing the bills.

Recently, the production team has finished cleaning up the soil and dung, so there is no early work to earn, and they can get up later tomorrow.

Wang Manyin thought well, but at dawn, he heard rhubarb barking.

Then a voice came: "Man Yin, open the door, I want to buy something."

"Wait, open the door right away." Wang Manyin put on his clothes speechlessly, opened the cave door, and suddenly a gust of cold air rushed over his face.

No way, the customer is Jade Emperor!

The person who came was the aunt of Wang Yungang's family. She said that there was no salt when cooking in the morning, so she exchanged two eggs for half a catty of salt.

After sending the other party away, he lost sleepiness and simply lit a fire to cook.

Breakfast is still simple, just steam a few nests.

As a result, as soon as the fire was lit, villagers from Shichuan Village came to buy farm tools.

Wang Manyin could only add a few handfuls of firewood to the stove in a hurry, and then fetch things for the other party.

In short, during the breakfast time, four or five groups of people came.

After breakfast, Wang Manyin left rhubarb to look after the house as usual, while he went to the production team to earn work points.

When I came back from work, there were already a few people waiting to buy things on the side of the road below, and there were a group of children beside me to join in the fun.

They were afraid of rhubarb and did not dare to wait outside the house.

Wang Manyin hurriedly tied the dog to the dung pile, and opened the door to let everyone in.

Similar to the situation in the morning, people kept calling at the door at noon.

Some people did not buy things directly after entering the cave, but went to the pots and stoves to see what Wang Manyin was cooking.

It made him so depressed that he couldn't do it. Fortunately, he didn't plan to do anything delicious.

They were all villagers from the same village, so he didn't have the nerve to stop them.

Even more speechless, some old men and women seem to really regard the consignment point as a meeting place.They don't buy anything, and they don't leave.

Seven or eight people leaned against the wall to bask in the sun, chatting and talking about ancient times together.

Wang Manyin did not expect this situation at all.

In the evening, just as Wang Manyin picked up his rice bowl, the horn in the village rang.No need to guess, there will be another meeting.

He hastily drank a bowl of corn grits, then locked the door of the kiln, leaving rhubarb to look after the house, while he grabbed a corn cob and ate while walking.

Turning over the deep ditch, I happened to meet Wang Qiusheng and his wife.

After saying hello, the three of them walked towards the breeding room compound together.

Having held more than a dozen meetings, Wang Manyin already has experience.Instead of moving forward, I found a Gelao at the back and squatted down, chatting with the people next to me.

With the village cadre Zhao Jianhai and the village party secretary taking their seats on the stage, the meeting officially began.

Wang Manyin originally thought that tonight would be another study meeting, but Zhao Jianhai, after making some opening remarks, stated the main purpose of this meeting—to welcome young intellectuals to go to the countryside.

"According to the instructions of the commune, ten educated youths have been assigned to our Guanzi Village this time, and we need to send people to Yuanxi County to meet them. It is XX’s trust in us. We must take good care of their lives..."

Listening to the voice on the stage, Wang Manyin's memories of later generations came to life again.

is not that right?The booming era came, and it was the year when the educated youth went to the mountains and went to the countryside.

But it doesn't have much to do with him, just live your life well from now on.

After the meeting, Wang Manyin left with the crowd.

Together with Guanzi Village and Shuangshui Village, there are four production teams with about 1000 people.If you count Shichuan Village on the other side of the ridge, there are almost [-] people.

Looking at the large number of people, in fact, the consumption capacity is very limited.

Just as he thought, everyone was just new to the consignment point, and there were very few people who came to buy things the next day.I checked the accounts before going to bed at night, and only sold for ten yuan.

If things go on like this, after deducting the sideline money paid to the village, I won't earn any money at all after being busy for a month.

But Wang Manyin didn't care, he didn't open this agency to make money, he just wanted to have a proper job.

No one is better off than to be free.

The key is that the door is a meeting place, which is really a headache.

Sugarcane is not as sweet as the two ends, so let’s make it alive first.

After getting married, let Lanhua guard the shop at home.

Speaking of orchids, this consignment store has been open for two days, and she hasn't been here once, most likely because of embarrassment.

Wang Manyin originally thought that the young intellectuals jumping in the queue had nothing to do with him, but who knew that he had just fallen asleep when he heard rhubarb barking and shouted following Wang Lianshun's voice.

"Uncle Lian Shun, what are you doing, you can't wait until tomorrow to talk about something?" Wang Manyin had no choice but to get up, scolded Rhubarb, and then asked Wang Lianshun to come in and sit down.

"Man Yin, I just finished a meeting with the branch secretary and the others. I will send you a good job tomorrow. I will go to Yuanxi County with a team of Fu Chang to pick up educated youths. It counts as a day's work and ten work points."

"Uncle Lian Shun, why did you let me go? Why didn't you send someone else." Wang Manyin shook his head hurriedly.

What a joke, this is a good job.

Yuanxi County is sixty or seventy miles away from Guanzi Village, and the commute is 140 miles away.If you go back on the same day, you have to leave before dawn.

In addition, it is said that the donkey cart will drive the whole journey. It is easy to say when you go, and you have to pull the educated youths to salute when you come back, plus seven or eight people, and you may run as fast as you want.

In the weather of minus seven or eight degrees, he would rather lie in bed than earn ten work points.

Wang Lianshun also knew that this matter was a bit out of place: "Hey, there is no way, who told you that you are not married yet. Besides, you used to run around a lot. You have seen the world, and you can talk to educated young people. Now The certificates in the village have been opened, and you have to go if you don’t want to go.”

After speaking, he took out a piece of letter paper with the official seal of the brigade.

Wang Manyin took it over and took a few glances: "If the branch secretary doesn't follow, will it be just me and Uncle Fu?"

"The branch secretary and cadre Zhao will go to the commune for a meeting tomorrow, so why not..."

Now that the certificate has been opened, Wang Manyin has no way to refuse.What's more, because of opening a consignment point, I also accepted Wang Mandun's love.

Sending Wang Lianshun off, Wang Manyin hastened to sleep and got up early tomorrow.

***
Bad things happen and I might be tricked.Today, the fever suddenly reached more than 38 degrees, but unfortunately there is no testing reagent.

Take a vaccination first, and hope everyone will forgive me if the update is interrupted in the next few days.
