Chapter 92 The Horn of Spring
"Here, it will be ours from now on!"

Liu Xianglan walked in and out of the shop, and said happily.

In the small alley to the south of the vegetable market, there is a hut along the street, which can accommodate so many flowers and plants, and there is also a bed.

There is also a stall in front.

As if in a dream, it belongs to Liu Xianglan.

"Yes, from now on this place will be ours."

While talking, Ji Yuanhai watered the flowers and plants indiscriminately.

As he watered them, the flowers and plants became more alive.

From Liu Xianglan's point of view, it was obvious that Gao Daming didn't water the flowers and plants, almost dying of thirst.

"This Gao Daming is too lazy...the flower shop doesn't even want to water it." Liu Xianglan was talking, helping Ji Yuanhai to water, busy tidying up the flowers and plants.

Some flowers and plants have indeed begun to turn yellow leaves, and they even seem to be unable to survive. Liu Xianglan was planning in her mind while tidying up.

She knew all the existing flowers and plants in her heart, and she probably knew the price at which they would be sold.

But after selling this batch, you have to restock or start raising seedlings yourself.

And winter is coming soon, and many flowers and plants cannot be kept alive.

In addition, in order to save money on hiring people, Liu Xianglan had to learn to read and write in addition to working.

Indeed, there are many things...

"The place is our own. In the future, you can live here if you want. You can also bring Xiaohong into the city to live. It will be more convenient to come and go."

Ji Yuanhai said.

Liu Xianglan was also taken aback when she heard the words, she didn't expect it to be like this.

That's right, no one is in charge now, she and Wang Xiaohong have both become household registrations in Qingshan County, of course, if they want to live here in the county, then live here in the county.

However, Liu Xianglan shook her head afterwards: "I'm afraid it's not right? How much does it cost to live in the county? You need money everywhere, so it's better to go home."

"Anyway, there are bicycles, so it will only take a while to go home."

"Wait for winter?" Ji Yuanhai reminded, "In winter, if some flowers and plants want to survive, they have to burn the stove all day long, so as not to catch the cold."

"Then let's talk about it at that time..." Liu Xianglan said, "I still have to learn to write and count, and learn to keep accounts clearly."

Ji Yuanhai also nodded after hearing this: "This time we took over, even Gao Daming had to take over the work that Gao Daming did before, it is indeed a bit busy - I have to help you for ten days and eight days, keep accounts, teach you how to keep accounts, There are other things that we all have to deal with."

Liu Xianglan didn't want to delay Ji Yuanhai's time at first, but now that the entire shop is overwhelmed by everything, she was only doing odd jobs, and she had to learn many things by hand, and she really couldn't do without Ji Yuanhai.

From this day on, Ji Yuanhai taught Liu Xianglan how to read, write, and count, while keeping accounts and taking care of the flowers and plants.

In just two days, all the flowers and plants have basically returned to life, and Liu Xianglan can start selling flowers again at the same price as before.

Because Gao Daming is gone, and the flowers and plants are fresh again, some familiar faces are willing to come and have a look, to pick and choose.

Liu Xianglan patiently introduced it to others. If there were any flaws, Ji Yuanhai would correct them.

In just a few days, this flower and plant shop can slowly open for business again, no longer just arranging flowers and plants.

Liu Xianglan also studied very seriously. Ji Yuanhai kept the accounts once, and next time she kept the accounts. Although it was stumbling and ugly, she got on the road slowly and could write and read.

She doesn't need to write anything else, she just writes in order, about what kind of flower or grass to sell a pot, and how much she charges.I really can't write, so I just wrote that I sold a pot of flowers, and I can keep accounts.

"Yuanhai, there are several companies that want plum blossoms recently, and some ask us if we sell narcissus roots. Are we going to buy them?"

"There are only two or three pots of plum blossoms in the store. In winter, pine trees, bamboos, and plum blossoms that can survive the winter must be better sold. Narcissus blooms in winter, and some people want to buy roots to grow daffodils at home..." Liu Xianglan and Ji Yuanhai said that day Let’s talk about the issue of purchasing.

"What's the price of the purchase?" Ji Yuanhai asked.

"I really don't know. I have to go to the place where Gao Daming went to Jinhua to ask." Liu Xianglan said, and rode out on the bicycle.

Liu Xianglan came back not long after, with an angry expression on her face: "They bully students!"

"I feel like I just took over Gao Daming's shop and I don't know anything about it. He offered me such a high price."

"According to the price they gave, let's buy a pot of plum blossoms, luckily cultivate them well, and finally sell them for fifty cents!"

"How can this be called making money? This is called making money for his family. All the money is spent on buying goods, so how can we do business!"

Ji Yuanhai smiled: "If this is the case, we don't need to buy from him, we grow it ourselves."

"Grow it yourself?" Liu Xianglan was surprised, "How long will it take?"

"It won't take long."

Ji Yuanhai asked Liu Xianglan to prepare flower pots and soil, cut off some branches from several pots of plum blossoms in the store, and insert them directly.

"After a while, when they grow about the same, you can prune them and propagate them again."

"So are pine trees, and so are bamboos. As long as other flowers and plants are out of stock, we will come here."

Liu Xianglan nodded, overjoyed: "If we can do this, we won't have to pay for anything!"

"Some flowers still need money..."

Ji Yuanhai thought that the flowers and plants planted by Mr. Wang were not low-grade, maybe he should find a chance to get some branches and leaves, and get a few treasures for his small shop, such as precious orchids, let alone a few dozen, more Say two or three hundred, even if it can't be sold, it can still attract some people to watch it.

"By the way, bring the bill and write down the five pots of plum blossoms purchased today."

Ji Yuanhai said to Liu Xianglan.

If the increase in assets that I have made by myself is included in the profit and distributed to Director Bai, it is not appropriate, and the cost should be deducted.

Director Bai received [-]% of the profit from the revenue, which was enough reward from Era Hai.

Liu Xianglan nodded, and wrote down how much it cost to buy five pots of plum blossoms.

After several days of busy work, the cut plum blossoms took root and grew very well.

Liu Xianglan has learned almost the same, and Ji Yuanhai no longer comes to the county every day, but resumes the rule of visiting the flower shop once every three days.

As for Mr. Wang's house, although Ji Yuanhai said he would visit him again during the Chinese New Year, he still took a chance to visit, show him the flowers and plants, and cut some branches and leaves by the way.

Mr. Wang was very pleasantly surprised by Ji Yuanhai's visit, and dragged Ji Yuanhai to talk a lot.

Some of them were trivial things like planting flowers and grass, and asked a few more questions about Ji Yuanhai's current situation.

Ji Yuanhai didn't say anything else, just told Mr. Wang that his study and work would continue as usual.

Mr. Wang also gave some words of encouragement, and by the way, he told Ji Yuanhai that his son Wang Wenbo came a few days ago and asked a few questions about Bai Shouyan. His words were neither beginning nor end. Know what it means.

Ji Yuanhai told the story of Bai Shouyan who was almost overthrown.

This matter was not done by Wang Wenbo, but by some big local snake run by the street.

After hearing this, Mr. Wang was very satisfied: "Wen Bo, this kid, I didn't mess around this time, I feel relieved... If it were eight years ago, this kid would be so reckless, he would offend others first without seeing the consequences! "

"This time, if he takes action and takes away your job...then I will really feel sorry for you and I won't know how to deal with it."

"Old Wang, what you said is too serious, really too serious!"

Ji Yuanhai said: "Based on our friendship, even if Brother Wang really did it, it must have affected me unintentionally. Is there anything else I can do to you?"

After hearing this, Mr. Wang still shook his head and said, "Fortunately, he didn't do it. If he did, I couldn't spare him."

It is true that every family has its own scriptures that are difficult to recite. The knot between Mr. Wang and his son Wang Wenbo cannot be opened in a short time.

Before I knew it, another month had passed. Director Bai passed by one day and took a look at the ledger. He found that although Liu Xianglan's handwriting was ugly, every single transaction was recorded in a down-to-earth manner, which felt good.

Looking at the flowers and plants for sale, there are pine trees, plum blossoms, green bamboos, and a bunch of narcissus root balls, as well as other flowers and plants, all of which are growing well, Director Bai is even more satisfied.

"Xiao Ji is such a talent..." Director Bai sighed and looked at Liu Xianglan, "Tell Xiao Ji and settle the payment."

"At that time, I will come over and buy a pot of plum blossoms."

Liu Xianglan nodded, indicating that she remembered.

When I went home that night, I told Ji Yuanhai Director Bai's request.

Ji Yuanhai consolidated the revenue and profit the next day, made a general summary, copied another copy, and prepared it for Director Bai along with the money.

Because of the cooler weather, even if the flower and plant shop has a good reputation and the quality of flowers and plants is good, this month is still not considered the peak season.After deducting the cost, the profit is divided into half, and Director Bai can only get more than 100 yuan.

Ji Yuanhai and Liu Xianglan were profit, plus the purchase price that should have been deducted, they could get 200 yuan.

After dividing, Liu Xianglan's hands trembled when she heard the number Ji Yuanhai said.

Even though she usually sells a pot of flowers for a few dollars, she knows that she will definitely make money in the end, which is much more than farming, but she never expected to make so much money in the end.

"Yuan Hai... We really made a lot of money!"

Liu Xianglan said tremblingly.

Ji Yuanhai reminded her: "Think about why our profits are so high."

"The flowers and plants in our shop are better. This is one thing. You should also notice that Zhao's shop is almost red with business being robbed. If we weren't afraid that someone was behind us, we would definitely take action again."

"Also, our shop doesn't hire any extra people. If we both need wages, it will cost another five or sixty yuan..."

Liu Xianglan counted with her fingers and nodded: "It's true, save a little here and a little more there, and this is how to make money."

"If the business is not close, if we split the money with others, no matter how high the cost is, our small business can barely make ends meet."

"Speaking of which, Yuan Hai, you are good at planting flowers and plants, so you can earn so much money."

"With so much money, what are we going to do next?"

"What can I do, I can't do anything for a while..." Ji Yuanhai said, "Eat, drink and dress first, that's it."

"This is also very good!" Liu Xianglan said with satisfaction.

There were no outsiders in the shop, so she couldn't help stretching out her arms to hug Ji Yuanhai: "Yuanhai, I feel like the past six months have been like a dream..."

"Yuanhai, if it weren't for you, Xiaohong and I might have starved to death by now. I'm so happy..."

Ji Yuanhai turned his head and looked at her, his eyes met.

Liu Xianglan hugged him tightly, buried her face in his chest, and pressed her closer and tighter.

It seems that he wants to stuff him into his heart, and it seems that he wants to let himself live in his heart.

Two days later, Director Bai came and bought a pot of plum blossoms.

Under the premise of safety, he is quite satisfied with the harvest.

The flower shop is back to normal, and Era Sea has resumed its original activities.

I go to the county town once every two or three days, and study at home the rest of the time. Occasionally I catch some fish to improve the food for the Ji family, and sometimes I give it to Uncle Qi and Captain Ge to try.

After a long time, even Captain Ge has tasted it—Ji Yuanhai's daughter-in-law is temporarily acting as an accountant while preparing for the college entrance examination, and does not seek to become a formal accountant.

Captain Ge didn't want to get involved in this matter at first, but after eating six or seven of the fish Yuan Hai sent, Captain Ge followed Ji Baotian and Ji Yuanhai's advice even more.

Time hurried forward for more than a month, and it was the twelfth lunar month, and it was not long before the Chinese New Year.

On this day, when Ji Yuanhai entered the city, Liu Xianglan mentioned something.

"I heard that the higher-ups just held a meeting, and you don't need a bicycle ticket to buy a bicycle?"

There was a meeting above...

Ji Yuanhai was taken aback when he heard this, it turned out that the spring breeze had started to blow unknowingly.

That is to say, individual business licenses, educated youth returning to the city, these things will also start.

Including land contracting, it has also begun to advocate, advocate, and replace the current model of rural collective production brigades in a few years.

After that, I went to work in the city, went to sea to do business, ten thousand yuan households, migrant workers...

These familiar words are about to make their debut.

After recovering, Ji Yuanhai said, "Sister Liu, since there is no restriction on bicycle tickets, why don't you just buy a bicycle?"

"We share a bicycle, which is sometimes inconvenient."

Liu Xianglan shook her head: "Don't spend this money, it's cold now, I have to burn the stove every day to keep some flowers and plants from dying; there are few when I go home, and I don't need a bicycle."

"Especially those expensive pots of orchids you mentioned, which add up to almost 600 yuan. If a pot dies, it will make people feel distressed."

"Xiaohong misses you a lot sometimes, shall I send Xiaohong to accompany you?" Ji Yuanhai asked.

After Liu Xianglan thought about it, she shook her head.

"I feel safe when Xiaohong is in the village, but not in the city. If she gets lost accidentally, I don't know how to find her back."

Ji Yuanhai came back from the county and just entered Xiaoshantun when he saw seven educated youths whispering in front of the team headquarters, their faces couldn't hide their excitement.

After seeing Ji Yuanhai, the educated youths turned their faces away again.

When Ji Yuanhai was gone, the seven educated youths couldn't help laughing again.

"Lu Heling must be dumbfounded this time, we can go back to the city!" Cao Jianhong said with a smile, "She has only been married for half a year, and she has lost her status as an educated youth and has a rural household registration, so she can't go back to the city! We can all go back to the city and be urbanites." Already!"

"When she finds out, she will definitely cry!" Another educated youth also said with a smile.

Ma Bin snorted: "Just wait and regret it! Stay in the countryside for the rest of your life, and live for that rural commune member Ji Yuanhai! Work every day—"

Speaking of this, Ma Bin was a little bit at a loss. Lu Heling really didn't work every day. She was temporarily acting as an accountant in the production team, doing calculations every day. The rest of the time was studying with books to prepare for next year's college entrance examination.

After thinking about it, I had to add another sentence: "Whether she can pass the college entrance examination is hard to say!"

Several educated youths looked at each other in blank dismay, and they all knew that this was not necessarily the case.

The main reason is that Lu Heling has always been more knowledgeable than them, and now he is basically preparing for the college entrance examination with all his strength.

If Lu Heling failed the college entrance examination, then they would fail even more.

I can only hope in my heart that Lu Heling's academic performance is really bad, and she really can't get into college, and can't become a city dweller - thinking about this makes her feel a lot happy.

"Speaking of which, we have to be careful for a while!"

Cheng Weiguo said cautiously: "Don't offend the villagers, especially Secretary Ji, Ji Yuanhai, and Lu Heling. Otherwise, it's hard to say whether we can get the return certificate!"

He can be said to have gained a lot of wisdom from a pitfall, and he has remembered the lesson, so he must never make any more problems.

When the other six educated youth heard this, they all believed it.

When things have come to this point, don't let the problem arise again.

Cao Jianhong said: "Our problem is not too big, and Ji Yuanhai and the others don't seem to hold any grudges."

"Cheng Weiguo, Ma Bin, can you two do it?"

Cheng Weiguo almost made a mistake, and was specially reformed by the production team. In the past three months, his waist could hardly straighten up due to exhaustion, and his skin and palms had turned a reddish color. He looked more like a rural person than a rural member.

Not to mention Ma Bin, he really made a mistake and was detained for ten days, so he is a bad element.

I was also tortured a lot by the production team.

Will the production team let them go back to town now?Will they be picked up and stuck in the countryside?
Just thinking about it like this makes them feel that they have no bottom in their hearts.

The Chinese New Year is getting closer and closer, and some people have begun to be overwhelmed, suggesting that the production team kill pigs for the Chinese New Year.

Throughout the year, that is, during the few days of the Chinese New Year, every household can eat pork, adults can get two white flour steamed buns, and children can get one white flour steamed bun.

So everyone is looking forward to it.

In the anticipation of these commune members, Cao Jianhong, Zhu Weihua and other five educated youths approached the brigade secretary Ji Baotian one after another to receive their certificates of returning to the city.

After getting the certificate, they quickly packed their luggage, and left this remote mountain village forever as if they were running away, never daring to come back for the rest of their lives.

Ma Bin and Cheng Weiguo went to brigade secretary Ji Baotian several times, but were reprimanded each time.

People with problematic thinking like them still want to be the first batch to go back to the city?Stay in the countryside and make a good transformation.

Seeing that Ji Baotian didn't let go, Ma Bin and Cheng Weiguo really cried.

It's not fake crying, it's really crying while holding your head.

I regret that I was confused and made a mistake in the first place, and I regretted that I had nothing to do!
"Secretary Ji, please tell us a clear path, what should we do... We have to go home!"
