Zhang Yuanmin provided suggestions for the rise of the Zhao Family Gang. Zhao Jun and Wang Meilan were very interested in the part about spring hunting.
The issue of stockpiling guns and ammunition was unanimously rejected by Zhao Jun and Wang Meilan.
Yes, as Zhang Yuanmin said, that stuff is not expensive, only three or four hundred yuan per ton.
But because of this, its profit is also low. In other words, it is easy to lose money if it is not done well.
These days, rural people buy things on credit at small shops. They have to wait until the autumn harvest to sell grain and then they have money in their hands before settling the bill.
The Zhao Jun family really had a ton of gunpowder, and they all came on credit when the time came. Some of them were able to repay the debt, some were unable to pay it back, and some deliberately refused to pay it back.
Because of that eighty cents, Zhao Jun and Wang Meilan can still ask for accounts every day in the village?
Seeing Zhao Jun, Wang Meilan disagreed, and Zhang Yuanmin did not try to persuade him. He also made a summary after reading "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms". The counselor only had to make suggestions, and it was the Lord's business to adopt them or not.
"Grand nephew, eat this cake quickly, it will get cold in a while." Wang Qiang called Zhao Jun to eat, and said: "Our village is different from others' brigade. We have to pass the forest farm meeting before the spring hunting can start. By then the farm will be open
If you don’t agree, aren’t we thinking about it in vain?”
Zhao Jun and Wang Meilan were startled, it was indeed true. For such a big matter, the forestry farm would have to hold a meeting to study it, and if it was not corrected, it would have to report it to the Forestry Bureau. No matter where it got stuck, the spring hunting would not be possible.
If it can't be done, then the excitement will be in vain.
Thinking of this, Zhao Jun took the bowl and took a sip of the tofu puffs, then picked up the fried cake and took a bite, then ordered a piece of cucumber with chopsticks and stuffed it into his mouth.
"Hahaha..." Before Zhao Jun could swallow the mouthful of food, Zhang Yuanmin laughed again.
When everyone looked at him, Zhang Yuanmin said to Wang Meilan and Zhao Jun: "Auntie, brother, if this plan doesn't work, Yuanmin has another plan, which can also help my Zhao family to take off."
"Yuanmin, tell me!" Wang Meilan became interested. She felt that Zhang Yuanmin had a very good mind.
"It's best if we can organize spring hunting in our forest area." Zhang Yuanmin said, "If we can't do it, we will go to Yongxing to collect mountain products!"
As soon as Zhang Yuanmin said this, Zhao Jun, Wang Meilan, Wang Qiang, and Jie Chen were all startled, and all looked at Zhang Yuanmin.
This is OK.
The spring hunting horoscope in Yongxing forest area has not been revealed yet, but people in the Yongxing brigade do spring hunting every year!
This year Zhao Jun went to Yongxing to participate in the spring hunt. During the celebration meeting, Yu Xuewen also gave a report.
Zhao Jun certainly couldn't remember the specific content of the report clearly, but he knew that in that spring hunting, dozens of bear gallbladders were killed. There were hundreds of bears with yellow leaves and gray skins.
These things belong to whoever hunts them. In the past, the hunters would find a place to sell them by themselves every year.
And after the spring hunting in Yongxing next year, if the Zhao family can collect all these things, they will definitely make a lot of money.
Zhao Jun has this confidence because he has connections. The manager of the first supply and marketing cooperative in Daohua County is a relative of his family, and the manager of the first supply and marketing cooperative in Shulan is Jiechen's second brother-in-law. He has mountain goods and can sell them at high prices wherever he goes.
.
"This is good!" Wang Meilan first gave Zhang Yuanmin an appreciative look, then turned to look at Zhao Jun and said, "Son, this is really good!"
"Yes!" Zhao Jun also nodded in approval and will go to Yongxing next spring to collect mountain goods and sell air guns.
"Grand nephew, my uncle will go with you next year!" Wang Qiang said, looked at the minister and said, "Little minister, let's all go."
"I'm going too!" Zhang Yuanmin asked for help. Zhao Jun and the other four glanced at him, and Zhao Jun said, "Okay, brother, you can take good care of him. Once he's taken care of, I'll let you go."
"When the time comes, Ruhai will also take the lead." Wang Meilan said with a smile: "The child's mouth is not free."
"Yeah, but I won't give it to you for free." Wang Qiang continued, "I don't even want to give it to you."
"Huh?" Wang Meilan was startled and said, "What?"
"Ah, it's okay, Mom." Zhao Jun stopped and asked Wang Meilan, "Mom, is Ruhai working with you too?"
"No." Wang Meilan said, "He went to school."
"Going to school?" Zhao Jun was stunned and said in surprise: "My aunt asked him to go out?"
"Yeah." Wang Meilan said mysteriously: "He went to organize a program for your forest farm."
"Organizing a program? Him?" Zhao Jun frowned, and then Wang Meilan continued: "Well, I shouldn't say anything this time, that kid is quite decent."
"Aunt Zhao, what did he do?" Jie Chen asked curiously.
…
The small restaurant behind the Forestry Bureau has the only private room.
Chu Anmin and Zhao Weipeng were drinking wine and eating vegetables.
Zhao Weipeng came down in the morning, went to the Public Security Bureau to finish his work, and then came to see Chu Anmin.
Hearing that Zhao Weipeng would be leaving tomorrow, Chu Anmin specially served wine to see off his old comrade.
Chu Anmin didn't even bring his secretary, and he was the only one in the small private room, but he ordered a total of eight dishes. Some butchered pig dishes, pot-wrapped pork, braised crucian carp with soy sauce... They were all hard dishes, and what Chu Anmin arranged was definitely
It's in place.
"Hey?" Chu Anmin threw two peanuts into his mouth and asked Zhao Weipeng: "I see why you have gained weight again?"
"Oh!" Zhao Weipeng sighed and said, "Zhao Jun's food is too good, will I get fat again?"
Chu Anmin had heard Zhou Chunming say that Zhao Jun's food was good before, and when he heard Zhao Weipeng say this again, Chu Anmin couldn't help but curiously asked: "They all say that his food is good, so why is it so good?"
As he spoke, Chu Anmin swept his chopsticks around the table and asked, "No matter how good his family's food is, can I arrange this meal for you?"
"Ha!" Zhao Weipeng curled his lips slightly and sneered, making Chu Anmin feel very unhappy.
Before Chu Anmin could question his guilt, Zhao Weipeng asked: "I came out in a hurry today, and I didn't even try to eat the delicious food they have."
"What does his family eat today?" Chu Anmin was very curious, and then he heard Zhao Weipeng say: "His family eats tofu today."
Chu Anmin was startled, and then said angrily: "Go to hell!"
…
Zhao Jun's family is having trouble with tofu today.
I eat tofu nao and small tofu at noon, and big tofu at night.
The tofu is modified with a knife, cut into mahjong pieces, fried first and then rolled. This is called fried tofu puffs locally, and it is called homemade tofu outside.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Frozen tofu stewed with kelp, with wild boar meat and meatballs in it.
Chicken shaved tofu is a stir-fry, which is fried tofu with eggs.
At the end of the meal, every burp left me with a beany smell.
After having enough wine and food, the diners went back to their homes.
But at this time, Zhao Youcai hasn't come back yet. He went to Wynn today to make a banquet for the Xing family, and he had to eat there after finishing the meal.
But Zhao Jun and Wang Meilan were not worried about Zhao Youcai, because among the people who went to eat, there must be people from Yong'an Tun, and Zhao Youcai would come back with them by then.
"Son, you've been tired for a long day. Just warm your feet and go to bed. You don't have to wait for your dad, I'll wait for him." Wang Meilan carried a thermos bottle in one hand and a foot towel in the other to Zhao Jun's room and placed the towel on the edge of the kang.
. Then he took out the footbath from under the table against the wall, and while pouring water into the basin, he said, "Mom mixed this water for you. It's just right warm."
"Hey!" Zhao Jun responded, rolling up his trousers and saying, "Mom, I'll go up the mountain tomorrow."
"Son, you don't go to work?" Wang Meilan remembered that Zhao Jun said that he would go to work tomorrow, but then Wang Meilan said again: "If you don't go to work, you can rest at home. You have been going up the mountain for three days.
Mom is afraid that you will be tired."
With that said, Wang Meilan stopped the thermos and continued: "We have all kinds of meat at home and we have enough money to spend. Don't be too tired."
Zhao Jun felt warm in his heart, but the scene of Zhao Youcai handing roe deer meat to Cui Yulan suddenly appeared in his mind.
Zhao Jun's cheeks tensed up and he said: "I won't get the dog tomorrow. My uncle, my uncle, and my minister, the three of us, will fight and surround us. Let's see how many roe deer we have. After that, won't my dad say he wants roe deer?"
Zhao Jun clearly made an appointment with Wang Qiang and the others to hunt squirrels tomorrow, and he said this just to give Zhao Youcai some eye drops.
"Ah?" Wang Meilan was startled and asked, "How do you know your father wants roe deer?"
In the morning, when Zhao Youcai said he wanted roe deer thighs, Zhao Jun was still awake. Apart from the two of them, only Xing San heard it.
"My third uncle said so." Zhao Jun said: "Before we came back, we sent the old man to Lengchang. After that, he said that my father wanted a roe deer. There was one behind his shack. He asked me to bring it back to my father. I didn't.
want."
"It's okay if you don't want it." Wang Meilan waved her hand out the window and said: "Roe deer, your dad took them all and put them at your Uncle Li's house."
"Ah..." Zhao Jun nodded slightly and asked: "Mom, did my dad say who he gave the roe deer to?"
"That's not mentioned." Wang Meilan was also startled. She was in a hurry to make dumplings when she got up early and didn't bother to ask.
At this moment, the dog outside the house barked twice.
"Is your dad back?" Hearing the barking of the dog, it seemed that it was not a stranger, so Wang Meilan guessed that Zhao Youcai was back.
Zhao Jun sat on the edge of the kang, scalding his feet and unable to move, so Wang Meilan went to the outhouse.
After a while, Zhao Youcai entered the room. As soon as he entered the door, Zhao Youcai took out a bottle of Xifeng wine from the pocket of his cotton-padded jacket and placed it on the stove. Then he waved his hand to Wang Meilan and said, "Lan, put it up for me.
Guests come to drink from heaven."
"Are there any visitors?" Wang Meilan took the wine bottle and said with a smile, "Maybe one day you will drink it."
Although Zhao Jun could not get up at this time, his father was back and he had to say something.
So, Zhao Jun asked loudly: "Dad, how did you come back?"
"Feng Wuzi rode a bicycle, and I came back on his back seat." Zhao Youcai answered as he walked towards the east room.
After entering the east room, Zhao Youcai took off his clothes and sat on the edge of the kang to warm himself.
It was quite cold outside, and Zhao Youcai was frozen to the bone all the way back by bicycle.
Wang Meilan thoughtfully brought him a teapot and filled it with water, and then brought him a footbath and filled it with water.
Zhao Youcai drank water, washed his feet, got on the kang, and got into bed. By this time, he had warmed up, and the two little girls at the head of the kang had already fallen asleep.
Before going to bed at night, it was the purest time of the day for Wang Meilan. She was sitting on the edge of the kang, washing her feet. Suddenly something occurred to her, and she asked Zhao Youcai, "Hey? Dad, who did you give that roe deer to today?"
"Ah, give it to someone, give it to them..." Zhao Youcai suddenly stopped in the middle of his words. He thought of his son and Zhao Jun's scary laughter.
"Both Dayong and Brother Xing know about this." Zhao Youcai did not evade, but directly replied: "That roe deer was given to a man named Cui Yulan."
"Cui Yulan?" Wang Meilan's eyes widened when she heard this, and she shouted: "Why did you have contact with her again?"
Wang Meilan's shout alerted Zhao Jun in the opposite room, woke up Zhao Hong and Zhao Na who were sleeping, and shocked Zhao Youcai to sit up from the bed.
"What are you talking about?" It's a fatal thing for a married man to have contact with a widow. At this time, Zhao Youcai was confused and said hurriedly: "What are you talking about? I didn't know her before?"
"Don't you know her?" Wang Meilan stared at her and asked, "Didn't you tell me that her father went to your house with a matchmaker to propose marriage? You still don't know her?"
"Matchmaker? Ah..." Zhao Youcai suddenly realized, waved his hand at Wang Meilan and said: "That's Liu Yulan, this is Cui Yulan, they are not the same person."
Twenty-five or six years ago, a girl named Liu Yulan fell in love with Zhao Youcai. Her father asked a matchmaker to come to Zhao's house to arrange a marriage, but Zhao Jun's mother did not agree.
It was also by mistake that there was only one word difference between Liu Yulan and Cui Yulan, otherwise Wang Meilan would not be so excited.
In fact, Zhao Jun did not want to pick the old couple to fight.
As the saying goes: When two tigers fight, one of them will be injured.
This was his biological father and mother, and it wouldn't be good to hurt anyone. So, Zhao Jun simply nodded and asked Wang Meilan to interrogate Zhao Youcai.
Hearing what Zhao Youcai said, most of Wang Meilan's anger disappeared instantly, but she also rolled her eyes at Zhao Youcai and said, "Liu Yulan, you still remember it very clearly."
Zhao Youcai curled his lips and did not dare to dwell on this topic.
But he didn't say anything, and Wang Meilan asked again: "Hey? What is this magnolia for?"
"She is the one from Yongsheng." Zhao Youcai replied: "You all know her male, he is Wei Tie and his uncle Liu Laosan."
"Isn't Wei Tie's uncle dead?" Wang Meilan asked, "Is she a widow?"
"Ah." Zhao Youcai couldn't say anything else and responded dryly.
When Zhao Youcai said that Cui Yulan was a widow, Wang Meilan became excited, frowned and asked, "Why are you giving roe deer to the widow?"
There is a lot of trouble at the widow's door.
Serious men would be put down if they nodded to a widow, but rarely opened their mouths to say hello. They could say anything to the widow by giving her meat and letting people pass it around.
"Don't make any noise. You'll wake up the children." Zhao Youcai told him and Li Dayong exactly what happened when they went to trap Wang Dalong and met the Cui sisters.
At this time, not only Wang Meilan was listening, but Zhao Jun was also listening outside the door. He really didn't want to provoke his parents into a fight, he just wanted to hear what Zhao Youcai said to Wang Meilan.
Yes, when they met at noon, Zhao Youcai had already said it once. But doesn’t it always require prisoners to give their confessions twice and then compare them to find loopholes?
After listening to Zhao Youcai's words, Wang Meilan nodded, and Zhao Jun outside the door also nodded.
Zhao Youcai had passed this test, and Wang Meilan, who had finished wiping his feet, threw the towel at Zhao Youcai's face and said, "You can just squeak all day long!"
Wang Meilan said this. First, it was wrong for Zhao Youcai to trick Wang Dalong. Why did Wang Dalong call you uncle? No matter how wrong the younger generation is, it is also wrong for you to treat the elders as a trap.
Secondly, you shouldn't give meat to the widow like that. It would be hard to explain if people see it.
Wang Meilan tossed it casually, and just as Zhao Youcai opened his mouth to speak, the half-wet and half-dry towel was thrown onto his mouth.
"You tiger bitch!" Zhao Youcai yelled angrily: "You are slurping in my face, am I giving you a face?"
"Who are you talking about?" Wang Meilan also knew that what she did just now was wrong, so she threw the towel again and threw it on Zhao Youcai's arm.
Zhao Youcai cursed twice and his anger subsided. At this time, Wang Meilan threw the towel over, and Zhao Youcai snatched it away, shaking his hands and threatening: "I'll beat you up..."
The couple was just joking, and there was no way they would actually fight. At this moment, Zhao Jun, who heard the sound at the door, felt bad. He opened the door a little and saw Zhao Youcai holding up a towel. In desperation, he pushed the door open and shouted: "
