Start as a farmer from an ordinary world

Chapter 68 The matter of Shao'an is over!

The reason why Wang Manyin chose to stock fish in the Dongla River was another layer of consideration.

That is to do what we can for the villagers of Guanzi Village without exposing the space.

When spring is lean, I don't know how many people in the village will run out of food.

Although fish such as crucian carp and wheat ears have many spines, they are more or less meat, which is more nutritious than eating wild vegetables.

After seeing the current condition of the pond, Wang Manyin got some grass and earthworms.

After feeding all the animals in the space, I started to get down to business.

Before, he was thinking about making some vermicelli with the yams and sweet potatoes produced in the space, but he was so entangled with miscellaneous things during the year and year that he couldn't spare time.

These two days happen to be free, so I can dispose of the yams and sweet potatoes.

It is not a problem to keep it in the space for a long time. It is easy to sprout and mold after a long time.

In fact, the process of making vermicelli is very simple. It is nothing more than crushing yams and sweet potatoes, filtering and precipitating starch, and then drying them.Of course, it is easier said than done. In the age without machinery, everything is done by hand, but it is quite troublesome, time-consuming and labor-intensive.

The two most critical steps are crushing and precipitation.

There is a stone mill for making tofu in the village, which can be used to crush yams and sweet potatoes.But Wang Manyin has no way to borrow it, so he can only use an older and stupid method.

When he went to Mijia Town some time ago, he saw that some people were selling Vitex baskets at the market very cheaply, so he bought two and put them in the space, and now they just come in handy.

There are always more ways than difficulties.

Wang Manyin got a lot of potatoes and sweet potatoes, washed them, put them in a thorn basket and hung them up.A shallow pit was dug below, and plastic sheeting was spread inside.

He went to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy salt, and each time he bought a whole bag. In the past few months, he also saved a lot of snakeskin bags and plastic sheets, which can be cut out to make sedimentation tanks and filters.

After working for almost an hour, I finally smashed two baskets of sweet potatoes and yams into pieces.

Next is filtering.

Lift the cut snakeskin bag, put the powder residue in it, shake it constantly, add water continuously, and wait for the starch slurry inside to flow out completely.

Wang Manyin was busy here for two or three hours, and only stopped when he felt that the time was almost up.

I haven't eaten meat for a few days, and I don't feel much taste in my mouth.

He thought for a while, turned his head and caught a pheasant in the pit, smashed its head, and walked back.The rhubarb dog set up at home has already been set up, even if someone sees the pheasant, they don't feel awkward, and they will only praise the dog as a good one.

When I got home, Lanhua had already lit a fire to cook.

Seeing the man returning with a pheasant, she was of course very happy, and immediately began to boil hot water to shed its feathers.

As for Wang Manyin, he grabbed the shovel and continued to clear the snow on the side of the field, all piled up around the acacia tree.

While I was busy, I saw three broken children appearing on the dirt road.

They were whispering, as if they were plotting something.

Two of them are Shanwa and Pingwa from the carpenter Wang Shuhai's family, and the other is Wang Mangu's son named Xiaogousheng.

There are three Gousheng in Guanzi Village. The old Gousheng is Wang Guifa, a shepherd in the village, and the big Gousheng is Wang Funian.

"Uncle Manyin, let's go shopping." Shanwa shouted loudly.Afraid of Wang Manyin's family rhubarb, this guy didn't dare to go directly to the door.

"You three little kids, haven't you used up all the lucky money yet?" Wang Manyin asked as he put down the firewood.

They visit relatives during the Chinese New Year, and it is estimated that they only earn a few cents of New Year's money.With the character of these children burning buns, they should be gone long ago.

"We don't buy it with money, we use scrap copper for it. Can you weigh it and see how much it is worth?" As he spoke, Shanwa took out a shiny object from the pocket of his ragged cotton jacket.

"This is scrap copper... where did you pick it up?" Wang Manyin looked at the little guys speechlessly.

Really think that I am blind!

This thing has nothing to do with scrap copper at all. It is a rectangular copper lock that is common in rural areas, also known as a horizontal copper lock.

It is a real old object, at least four or fifty years old, and it is no longer produced.

And the surface is shiny and shiny, obviously it has been used.Nine out of ten it was a few broken babies who dismantled it from their own wardrobe or somewhere else.

"I picked it up from the field," Shanwa replied with a guilty conscience.

He continued to ask: "To be honest, where did I get it, otherwise I would have gone to the village to look for Wang Shuhai."

"I said, I said...it was removed from my wardrobe," Shanwa hurriedly told the truth without being scared.

"You guys are too courageous. You dare to sell a good copper lock. Let the adults in the family know, if you don't want to smash your ass. Get out!" Wang Manyin reprimanded angrily.

Of course, Wang Manyin didn't dare to take it... It's okay if an adult brings it, but children's things must be kept carefully, otherwise they will cause trouble.

After being reprimanded, a few broken children left in despair.

"Wait," Wang Manyin yelled again when he saw them walking off the stage.

He returned to the consignment point, grabbed a few candies and walked out, one for each of them.

After all, it's still poor.

After lunch, Wang Manyin asked Lan Hua to bring half a pheasant back to Shuangshui Village, to see if the old father-in-law's family was recovering.

***
After the fifteenth day, the cloud of disease hanging over the Shigejie Commune gradually subsided.

The notice to recruit new technology promoters from the supply and marketing cooperatives was finally distributed to all teams.

As soon as he got the news, Sun Shaoan went straight to Tian Futang's house with two boxes of snacks.

After being taught by his brother-in-law's words and deeds, he now also knows that it takes an attitude to ask for help, and he must not be empty-handed.

After hearing his explanation of his intentions, the other party did not refuse. After asking a few simple questions, he readily issued a letter of recommendation.

From Tian Futang's point of view, Sun Shaoan was completely blind.

I don't know where I got the news, trying to find black shit to eat.

The Quanshige Festival Commune has only two promoters, which seem to be recommended by the teams, but in fact it is just a process.

The real number of places is probably determined in advance, even if the recommendation letter is handed in, it will be in vain.

It's just that Tian Futang never expected that after only one week, the notice from the commune was sent to the brigade headquarters of Shuangshui Village again.

Sun Shaoan went to Yuanxi County to participate in the training of new bacterial fertilizer technology, and it was done!
There is something evil about this matter.

There are two places in the whole commune, even if Tian Futang wants to win one, it is impossible, how did the Sun family do it?
He is very familiar with the Sun family and knows that the whole family is honest and suffering people.Except for Sun Yuting, I don't know any "big shots" at all.

As for Sun Yuting, he is his follower, the best of both worlds.My own life is muddleheaded, and I don't have that much ability at all.

After all the calculations, Tian Futang remembered Sun Yuhou's second-rate son-in-law...

The other party opened a consignment store in Guanzi Village before, which shocked many people's jaws.There were also private discussions that Wang Manyin knew a big man in the supply and marketing cooperative.

At that time, Tian Futang still didn't believe it, but now it seems that he really underestimated the son-in-law of the Sun family.

The eldest daughter of Sun Yuhou's family has a vicious eye for picking people.

After getting the accurate information, Wang Manyin immediately took Shaoan to Director Guo's house to express his gratitude.

This time I still didn't empty my hands, and gave away thirty or forty eggs.

In his words, "It's all self-owned and worthless."

Director Guo instructed Shaoan to go to the county to study hard, and he could send a message to himself if there was anything wrong.

On the way back, Wang Manyin took out a roll of food stamps that he had prepared earlier and handed it over.

"Brother-in-law, what are you doing? I can't take any more of your things. If this goes on like this, what kind of person will I become..." Sun Shaoan refused to accept it.

"Take it, you go to the city to study, how can you eat without food stamps?"

"There are a few liters of wheat at home, let my dad go to the grain station to exchange for some food stamps." Sun Shaoan said hesitantly.

If it weren't for the constant help from his brother-in-law, how could his family save a few liters of wheat.

And if I exchange the wheat for food stamps, the rest of the family will have a hard time in the spring...

This bad day is too hard!
The more this was the case, the more Sun Shaoan realized that what his brother-in-law said earlier made sense.

Must get out!For myself, for my family.

"Shao'an, take it, treat it as a loan from me, and return it later when you have it."

"Okay then..." Shaoan took it hesitantly, counted and said again, "Brother-in-law, you gave too much, I can't eat that much."

This roll of food stamps weighs almost thirty catties.

"Poor family and rich road, I will take it if I give it to you. Don't starve yourself when you go out." Wang Manyin replied nonchalantly.
