Siheyuan: I tied a stick and went to the countryside

Chapter 25 Business Experience of the Brigade Department

I have rented a house, but there is nothing in it, and it costs tens of dollars to buy these things. Most people really can’t rent a house to live in.

But all of this is nothing to Huang Bin, he will go shopping tomorrow, and then gradually use all the things in the space.

After tidying up, Huang Bin came to the educated youth point, and just before leaving, he told the director that the brigade will provide food management for a meal tonight, which is considered a welcome.

When I got to the place, I found that the brigade was stingy enough. Each person had two buns, and then a bowl of stewed radish vermicelli. It really was a simple home-cooked meal.

Huang Bin took out a lunch box from his luggage to fill a portion of food, took two buns, squatted down in a corner, and started eating.

Wang Kaixuan, the person in charge of the educated youth, introduced the situation in Jinshantun.

Because it is in the Northeast, the planting starts in March and April every year, and the crops are harvested in autumn, and this crop is planted a year.

"Now you are here at the right time. Although it is very hot, the work is very easy. After you get used to it, it will be much easier in the autumn harvest. That is the most tiring time."

When everyone thought of working in the farmland under the sun, they all became sad.

Wang Kaixuan talked about the interesting story of renting a house, and then told why those houses only had doors, windows and no furniture, iron pots. In fact, they were all sold to the brigade by the former educated youth.

Those who rented houses went to the yard next to the brigade headquarters to find the old man who drove the car, Mr. Zhou, and bought second-hand goods from him.

After all, this kind of business can't be done in the brigade. Zhou Tui, a lonely old man with no children, is a suitable person to do this.

There are not only iron pots, but also some farming tools and furniture. Before the educated youth returns to the city, they can sell these things to Master Zhou.

In fact, these things have been sold in this way, and bought several times, which made the brigade a lot of money.

That being the case, what are you waiting for? Huang Bin quickly finished his meal and went to the livestock yard next to the brigade headquarters.

There are two old men here, one is Master Zhou and the other is Master Guan. They are usually responsible for taking care of the brigade's cattle, donkeys and mules, as well as raising sows and sheep.

When going to the market in the commune, they also drove people to the market in ox carts.

You can smell a strong smell without entering the yard. It seems that there are quite a few animals raised here.

This is the case in the countryside. Now every household raises pigs, and the temperature is very bad. As long as it takes a long time, you will get used to the smell.

After entering the courtyard, Su Meng and Cheng Jianjun were talking to Guan Sanye. Seeing Huang Bin, Su Meng snorted again, and walked into a room with her head held high.

On the road before, Su Meng didn't like Huang Bin, and she was always in an unfriendly state.

Cheng Jianjun smiled and said, "Are you here to buy things too?"

"That's right, there is nothing in that room except for a kang and stone slabs." Except for the doors and windows, the rest is empty.

"It's the same, and there is nothing in my house." Cheng Jianjun said.

Huang Bin greeted Guan Sanye, and entered the wing room with Cheng Jianjun, where various daily necessities were placed by category.

There are pots, pans, spoons, benches and boxes.

Huang Bin asked: "Master, can you give me the furniture I bought?"

Third Master Guan grinned, showing his big yellow teeth: "Yes, I will stay here, Second Master Ni has just sent away a bunch."

"Oh, thank you old."

No wonder I didn't see Lord Tuesday, it turned out that he was delivering goods in a bullock cart.

Since you can send it, then Huang Bin is not welcome, one Kang mat, one straw mat, one straw mat hanging on the door, two small benches, two high stools, one iron pot, one Kang table, two large wooden boxes, I bought a bellows for the fire, and bought some bowls and chopsticks.

Then there are buckets, shoulder poles, large wooden basins, ceramic basins and other supplies. Huang Bin also bought a sickle and a shovel. If he wants to grow a vegetable garden, he must have tools. The sickle can go up the mountain to mow grass. Huang Bin plans to raise two rabbits. Hen, it depends on which one you can buy.

These things were sold to the production team by the educated youths before, and all of them were second-hand goods, otherwise the price would be higher.

There are a lot of them, because I came earlier and I could pick out better-looking furniture, and it cost a total of 35 yuan.

It can be seen that the cost of living is high, and renting a house does not seem to be expensive, but buying these things is another big expense.

Huang Bin will live here for at least two and a half years. The money is also a necessary expenditure. He must make his own life better and make his life more comfortable.

Huang Bin paid the money and asked, "Third Master, where should I buy vegetables on weekdays?"

The production team can only get food on credit, but they don't sell vegetables.

Guan Sanye said: "Each family has its own vegetable garden, so you can buy the ones that are close to the house. The price is similar to the ones in the market. They are also willing to sell vegetables to educated youths."

Now the field is collectively owned, but each household will have some private land, the size of which varies according to the situation in different places, but the vegetables grown on it can solve the problem of eating vegetables, and selling some more to the educated youth is also an income.

Although the educated youth went to work with them in the fields, the educated youth could not share their private land, so they could grow some in the yard, but the fastest green vegetables would take half a month to eat, so they had to buy vegetables first.

"Okay, thank you." Huang Bin said politely.

Then I asked some other small questions, Guan Sanye also answered them all, and educated youths came to pick things one after another.

Su Meng and Cheng Jianjun also picked a lot. When Master Zhou came back, he would send theirs over first, and then come to fetch Huang Bin's items.

After sending it to the small courtyard to unload, Huang Bin returned to the educated youth courtyard to pick up the luggage.

The Educated Youth Court was also much calmer, only a few people were there, and everyone else went shopping.

Back in his yard, Huang Bin just spread the kang, released water from the space, and went to sleep on the kang after a simple wash.

I used to sleep on newspapers on the train, and I haven’t had a good rest, so I can finally fall asleep peacefully.

The next morning, Huang Bin was awakened by the ringing of the bell. He picked up his watch and saw that it was not yet 5 o'clock. He muttered, "Why does this country get up so early every day?"

I don't have to go to work today, so I turned around and went back to sleep.

Huang Bin didn't get up until eight o'clock, first went to fetch a load of water, and wiped down the furniture bought yesterday, so he could finally make breakfast, but he had nothing but stick noodles.

He took out the rabbit meat grown in the space and ate some, when suddenly there was a knock on the courtyard door, Huang Bin hurriedly sent the rabbit meat into the space, got up and opened the door.

Yan Jiedi came in and said, "Wenwu, let me see how your house is doing?"

"It's not packed yet."

Huang Bin said, and invited Yan Jiedi in.

Yan Jiedi went to the back room and took a look. Although the room size is not large, a room is only more than ten square meters, but this is enough for a family to live.

Some enviously said: "You still have a big place. There are more than 10 people sleeping on the two kangs in our house, and they are crowded to death."
