Tian Shao pulled Li Aihua and said in a low voice: "It's close to the sea over there, and seafood is much cheaper than here. Then you can buy dried goods such as scallops, isinglass, shark fins, and sea cucumbers and send them back. The more the better."
Kelp and seaweed are also popular, but the shipping cost is too expensive and the quantity is too large to be noticeable.
Li Aihua laughed and scolded: "The more, the better? I'll buy you a sack, do you want it?"
Seeing that she didn't understand, Tian Shao said: "Not to mention one sack, ten sacks are not too many. These are all rare things. When the time comes, we can make a lot of money by selling them."
Li Aihua was startled and said, "Isn't this speculation?"
Tian Shao smiled and said: "Bringing a few kilograms of seafood to relatives is nothing more than speculation. Let me tell you, if we sell it at twice the price, others will still think it's cheap."
The main reason is that the supply and marketing cooperatives don’t sell this stuff, but they do exist in the provincial capital. So even if you make twice as much money, others won’t think it’s expensive.
"so much?"
Tian Shao nodded and said: "Isinglass, shark's fin and sea cucumber are all nourishing foods, and they can be used whether they are given to the elderly at home or given as gifts. You are getting married soon, so you might as well save more money to prepare them."
"If someone finds out and reports it, it will be over."
Tian Shao smiled and scolded: "Do you think sea cucumber and fish maw is Chinese cabbage? You can buy it for twenty or thirty kilograms, which is a lot. Who would stare at it after eating this amount?"
Li Aihua felt that she could not hide what she did from her father and mother.
Tian Shao didn't expect her to hide it: "Just tell your uncle and aunt that I bought it for your family, and they won't say anything."
"Let me try."
Not long after Li Aihua's family went to Fujian, Tian Shao received saplings from the Academy of Agricultural Sciences in the provincial capital. There were 100 of each of these saplings, and they were all very small.
Tian Shao went to the Agriculture Bureau to find a technician named Tu, and told her about the saplings sent: "Technician Tu, now is the tree planting season. Can you go to Tianjia Village tomorrow to guide them in planting."
She has never planted fruit trees, but she knows that fertilizing and watering are very particular. And this is a new variety, so she cannot rely on experience alone.
Technician Tu smiled and said, "Okay, I'll be there tomorrow morning."
Tianjiacun is willing to plant fruit trees to develop agriculture, which is a good thing, and the leaders above him also strongly support it. Of course, he is also happy to do this, after all, it is his job.
When the second uncle saw the pile of saplings in Wuyangyang, he said happily: "Da Ya, I asked them to dig the tree hole a long time ago, and let them plant the saplings tomorrow morning."
Tian Shao hurriedly stopped and said that it is best to plant fruit trees under the guidance of technician Tu: "Uncle Tai, the damage rate of our own planting is too high. If technician Tu understands the technology, his survival rate will be much higher. Uncle Tai, that Tu
The technician promised to come over tomorrow morning."
The second uncle was very happy to see her doing things so thoughtfully, but he still asked: "Da Ya, besides planting fruit trees, is there any other way? Many people in our village still don't have enough to eat, and I hope they can."
You can dress warmly in winter.”
After all, it takes several years for fruit trees to bear fruit, and these few years are also difficult.
Tian Shao shook his head and said no. It's not that she is unwilling to contribute, but that Tianjia Village has no resources. It's hard for a clever woman to make a meal without rice, and there are so many people now that she doesn't dare to make big moves.
The second uncle hesitated and said, "Da Ya, what do you think we should build a brick factory here?"
Tian Shao rejected his proposal without thinking: "No, uncle, this brick factory will emit a lot of dust and smoke, which will cause great pollution. If a brick factory is built, it will destroy our environment here."
There are beautiful mountains and clear waters here, and she doesn't want anyone to damage the environment here.
The second uncle said: "What kind of environment are you destroying? There will be no more dust and smoke when it stops. Daya, I heard that the brick factory in Shuangqiao Town has hired a lot of people. Not only can they have enough to eat, but they can also eat twice a month.
A meal of meat.”
When Tian Shao heard this, he didn't stop him. He wanted to object with all his strength, thinking that he didn't want everyone to live a good life! She said: "Uncle, if you think the brick factory is good, then you can do it with the villagers! I'm not that capable."
The second uncle knew from her expression that he did not support her. He sighed and said, "Hey, uncle, I also hope that our Tian family can have enough food and clothing, and that our children can study."
While they were talking, Captain Tian came. He came over after hearing that the saplings had arrived. He looked at each sapling one by one. After reading it, he said: "Da Ya, if anyone in the village asks, just say I asked you to buy them."
If the fruit doesn't grow well or tastes wrong in the future, everyone will scold him and not Tian Shao.
Tian Shao knew that both of them wanted to lift the villagers out of poverty, but she really had no better way now. However, when the reform and opening up began, it would not be a problem to return to the village and set up a fruit processing factory.
After returning home, Li Guihua asked: "Da Ya, who paid for the saplings?"
Tian Shao smiled and said: "This is a sapling bought for the team. How can I be asked to pay for it? If so, who will dare to do things for the team in the future."
Although there is not much money, no matter what happens, there must be regulations.
Li Guihua felt relieved now. She was afraid that her daughter would take care of everything stupidly: "Da Ya, your father can already ride a bicycle. It will be more convenient for him to deliver firewood and vegetables to you in the future."
Tian Shao smiled and said: "Mom, you should learn it too! Once you learn it, it will be easier to go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy things."
Their Tianjiacun is also quite far away from the supply and marketing cooperative. It takes more than 40 minutes to walk back and forth! Riding a bicycle can save half the time.
In fact, Tian Dalin also said this, but Li Guihua refused to learn for fear of falling: "Why should I learn this? I will let your father buy things later. Okay, the food is ready, let's go in and eat!"
Under Tian Shao's guidance, Sanya's cooking skills have improved greatly. According to Siya, she is somewhat of a true inheritance of Tian Shao. This statement made Li Guihua scold her. What a true inheritance. She is clearly as prodigal as Tian Shao.
Already.
After the meal, Li Guihua and Tian Shao said something: "Yesterday, your aunt sent a message saying that Damei had an eye with a man named Quan Shui and wanted to set up two tables. This Luo Quan Shui is twenty-six years old this year.
, because she lives in the mountains and is poor, she has not yet married a wife. However, as a human being, her parents have passed away. If Damei marries her, she does not have to worry about being teased by her mother-in-law. The date is set at the end of the month, and I will meet her then.
Go have a wedding banquet with your father."
Tian Shao thought this was too fast, but his uncle and aunt agreed that the other party should be good: "Mom, I don't have time to go, you can give me a two-dollar red envelope when the time comes."
Li Guihua thought it was too much, but thinking about Damei's current situation, it was quite pitiful, so she thought it was this aunt who was supplementing the money: "Daya, I want to give you two kilograms of brown sugar, do you think it's okay?"
Tian Shao said with a smile: "As long as you are willing to do it, mother, I have no problem with pulling out a few feet of cloth to make clothes for my cousin."
Li Guihua thought about the cloth tickets in the cabinet, hesitated and said, "Da Ya, then I'm going to pull four feet of cloth to make new clothes for Da Mei."
The main reason is that Niu Damei doesn't have any new clothes, and she gave her the best two clothes. She is still wearing shabby clothes when she gets married, which is unbearable.
