Rebirth 1983

Chapter 36
"Songwazi Songwazi!"

The old village head shouted loudly outside the courtyard of Chen Song's new house, knocking on the courtyard door with a cane.

Chen Song opened the door and welcomed the old village chief in.

In the yard were Wang Yao, Daniu and Chen Song sitting, and the little girl was playing on the swing under the newly built tree in Chen Song's yard.

The village head saw Daniu nodded, and Wang Yao was not surprised at all, and asked straight to the point: "I heard that you said in the ditch that you bought crayfish for fifty cents a catty. Is it true?"

"Third Master, you also know that it hasn't been long." Chen Song moved a chair and asked the old village chief to sit down.

The old village head was also polite, sat down, looked at Chen Song and said, "So, this matter is true? Do you really want to buy crayfish?"

"Of course it's true. How could I lie to everyone in the village?" Chen Song paused, then sat down, and looked at the old village chief: "Third Master, you probably heard some news. I set up a stall in the county and sold some lobsters I made to make some money. No, I don't know who spread the news. Now the whole village is catching lobsters in the ditch, so what should I do?"

"It's really difficult to handle, but this crayfish belongs to everyone in the village, so it's not illegal for everyone to catch it." The old village head was a little embarrassed. After all, he was the first to discover a way to make money, and now all the people in the village rushed to him. This is tantamount to cutting off his source of income.

"I don't blame everyone. I want to bring everyone to make money together. Money is something that everyone can earn together. So, I just want everyone to catch it, and I will buy it directly, so that the villagers can make some money, and I can save trouble."

Chen Song was serious and told the old village chief about this matter.

"That's a good relationship. I thought who was spreading the fake news. By the way, if you have money, you dare to make an acquisition. Don't be unable to get the money at that time, and everyone will not make it easier for you."

The old village chief kindly reminded Chen Song.

"Don't worry, Third Master, look." Chen Song took out a pile of ten-cent notes in his hand, reckoning that there was at least more than 200 yuan in a thick stack.

Seeing the money, the old village chief's eyes straightened, and he stomped his cane a few times: "Okay, okay, I'll broadcast it for you, and let everyone catch lobsters for you."

After finishing speaking, the old village chief didn't stay for a while, and went back in a hurry.

Chen Song sent him outside the door, watching his hunched body trot back quickly, a little amazed.

Not long after, the village chief's voice sounded from the loudspeakers at the head and tail of the village.

"Fathers and folks, Chen Aiguo's third son, Chen Song, who lives in the pig shed near the back mountain, has bought crayfish from our village. He charges fifty cents a catty, whatever he can get."

The village chief's voice was broadcast three times on the radio, and everyone in the village heard it immediately.

Brother's house.

When the radio rang, it woke up Chen Song's little nephew, the son of his elder brother Chen Mo.

The sister-in-law hugged her son and coaxed her to sleep, and then called Chen Mo out: "Your brother has too much money and nowhere to spend it. Buying crayfish, how much money has he earned these days?"

Chen Mo is a shy man, and when faced with his wife's sudden questioning, he couldn't explain why: "Mother, I don't know. The third child goes out early and comes back late these days. I haven't seen him a few times. How could I know what he did and how much money he made?"

"You useless thing, he is your younger brother, and you don't pay attention to it." The sister-in-law cursed bitterly: "Why don't you go and ask now, if he can take you with him for business, and he will share half of the money he earns with you."

"This..." Chen Mo was stunned, and he didn't know how to reject his wife: "This is Song Wazi's own source of income. As the eldest brother, how can I not help, but instead go to grab money? This is not possible!"

Chen Mo sternly refused, and wanted to turn around and leave, but was held back by his wife.

"You know that you need to help your brother, so you have to help. Who do you think your brother is doing business with? Da Niu, that stupid big man, has only one strength and no brains. And the widow of the king, that is a widow, your brother is full of blood, how can this work? No wonder I went to matchmaker this morning, and he didn't want to. Maybe what's wrong with the two of you?"

The sister-in-law paused, seeing that her man was a little moved, and quickly added to the flames: "When the time comes, you can help out, you can earn some money to honor your parents-in-law, and you can also save some property for your children."

Speaking of this, Chen Mo's thoughts were shaken.

After his mother-in-law separated the family forcefully, Chen Mo always felt sorry for his parents, and always felt that it was not filial to drive them to demolish the house, so he always wanted to compensate his parents, but they were all digging out food, so there was no extra money.

If you can start a small business with Songwazi and get some money, wouldn't you be able to compensate your parents?

Chen Mo completely forgot that he did this to compensate his parents, but he cut his own brother's flesh to compensate.

What's more, you can save some money for your children.

Looking at his sleeping son, Chen Mo finally made up his mind.

"Come on, then I'll ask." Chen Mo nodded to his mother-in-law, glanced at his son, and left the house to find Chen Song.

The sister-in-law watched her man go further and further away, and the joyful smile on her face became strange: "Okay, Chen Song, I knew you were lying to me this morning, and you said you have no money, no money, how can you make an acquisition without money, and when your brother finds out how you make money, I will ask your brother to do one too, and we will see who earns more."

The sister-in-law twisted her waist and walked towards Chen Aiguo and Huangqin's house, planning to order tonight's dishes. I have to say that the dishes made by Huangqin are not bad, at least the sister-in-law can't make this taste by herself.

……

"Uncle Twelfth, your lobsters are pretty good." Chen Song weighed the lobsters of the elders in the village: "Twenty-two for seven catties, three yuan and six cents. Sister Wang Yao, give it to Uncle Twelfth. Daniel brings the lobsters in."

Outside Chen Song's yard, there was a line of folks from the village who came to deliver lobsters, each carrying bamboo baskets filled with mighty crayfish.

As for why not get Wang Yao's house?

The first is that so many people came to give crayfish to a widow's house, not to mention the gossip of the villagers in secret, even if Wang Yao and Chen Song didn't care, but Xiao Yaoyao was at a sensitive time, so she couldn't be bullied because of this in the village.

The second is that the yard of Wang Yao's house is not as big as that of Chen Song's new house. As long as a new earthen stove is built here, lobster can be cooked here. It will not affect at all, but it will be much more convenient.

"Songwazi, when do you plan to receive your lobster?"

Some folks came forward to ask, and looked at Chen Song.

"Uncle, this crayfish, you can deliver them any time during the day for these two months, and we will collect them. After two months, the lobsters will be gone, so we will not accept them."

Chen Song took the lobster brought by the uncle in front, answered the questions, weighed it skillfully, and calculated the price in his head.

"Third Uncle, this is our lobster, do you want it?"

The little dolls in the village also brought a box to Chen Song. Chen Song saw that he was a good guy, weighing at least ten catties, and asked them curiously: "You guys, how did you catch so many?"

"We went to Xiaohu's pond to catch them. Third Uncle, let's see how much we can give us with so many lobsters."

"That's right, third uncle, quickly calculate the money, we are still waiting."

The little carrot heads talked in a hurry.

Chen Song was taken aback, Xiaohu is Chen Zhiguo's son, isn't he against him?How do you get the kids to bring lobsters?Did the kids catch these things themselves?

"You caught this lobster yourself? Did you catch it in someone else's pond?" Chen Song's face changed slightly.

He didn't care where the lobster came from, but that this group of radish heads went into the pond.

The pond in the countryside is not deep for adults, but it is still a bit deep for children. These children are not tall. If something happens to the pond, Chen Song will feel sorry for it.

"You guys, don't go into the pond, it's too dangerous! From now on, you can only catch it in the ditch, otherwise, even if you send it over, I don't want it." Chen Song warned them seriously.

Frightened by Chen Song's face, a few little radishes vowed not to go to the pond in the future, only then did Chen Song let them go, and then weighed the lobster, which turned out to be five dollars and five dollars.

The children got the money and ran away laughing.

Chen Song was busy weighing everyone's lobsters, but saw his elder brother Chen Mo walking into the yard and walking towards him.

"Third brother."
