Brother Li Carpenter left happily. Before Lin Lan entered the house, Li Guizhi came: "Xiao Lin, Zhang Yazhen said that it is your turn to raise cattle today."
Lin Lan looked at Li Guizhi in surprise: "I said that day that I would not raise cattle, and I will not use cattle in the future. You can't find me about raising cattle, so why are you asking me to raise cattle again?"
After the brigade divided the fields, the plowing oxen in the brigade were also drawn by lot according to the households. Each oxen was raised by about ten families in turn, and would be used in turn for plowing the fields in the future.
Jin Hui calculated the heads and called people from each group together. Lin Lan's group included Li Guizhi, He Cuicui, and several other family members in the back.
Lin Lan stated at that time that she did not know how to plow fields, she did not raise cattle, and she would not use cattle in the future. Li Guizhi and He Cuicui all agreed.
Xiong Jianjun and his wife didn't say anything at that time. Lin Lan thought they agreed. Today she even said it was her turn to raise cattle. The couple must be mentally ill!
Li Guizhi curled her lips: "We also said that if one less household is used, there will be one less person using cattle. But Zhang Yazhen said that the brigade will allocate the cattle to our group to feed them together.
If one household is missing, the other households will have to feed more days than other groups. If the cows get sick, everyone will have to pay more equally, and she will not allow you to withdraw."
Li Guizhi sent the cow to Zhang Guizhi's house today, but they didn't accept it, saying that she had passed by Lin Lan's house. Li Guizhi felt that Zhang Yazhen was deliberately making trouble, so she argued with her for a few words, but they didn't accept the cow, and now she is in a dilemma.
"When Accountant Jin came to have a meeting with us, they didn't bring their ears with them?" Lin Lan saw Li Guizhi's embarrassed look, thought for a moment and said, "If he doesn't agree, he will go to the brigade to find the brigade cadres."
Li Guizhi felt that the only option was this: "I'll go find the brigade cadres and re-distribute them."
"Okay, if you need me, just call me."
"Yeah!" Li Guizhi nodded, frowned and went back to find several other families to discuss finding brigade cadres.
Lin Lan took inventory of the dry goods at home and prepared to find a rack truck to take the dry goods to the upstairs next door to Zhou Xiaohong.
Li Xiangyang entered the yard and saw Qiaohui hanging clothes: "Qiaohui, where is your cousin?"
Qiao Hui pointed to the room where the goods were stored: "My cousin is cleaning out the goods in the room."
Lin Lan and Lin Yuezhen came out carrying a bag of fungus: "You're here!"
"What are you moving out for?" Li Xiangyang hurriedly stepped forward to lift the sack and put it away.
Lin Lan wiped his sweat and said, "It's very damp when I put it on the ground. I want to send the dry goods upstairs to avoid getting wet."
Li Xiangyang thought the same thing: "Tie the back seat of the car and pull it over, or use a frame car to pull it over?"
"I'm going to borrow a truck from Sister Meihua, and we can pull it over as soon as we get there."
"I'll go pull it with you."
"I'll just go by myself. You can take out the sacks inside."
"That's fine!" Li Xiangyang took off his coat and walked towards the house.
Lin Lan went to Yang Meihua's house and saw the couple sitting on a small bench scraping potatoes. She asked with a smile: "Sister Meihua, are you open yet?"
"It's open." Yang Meihua stood up with a smile and wiped her hands with her apron. "It's been open for two days. There weren't many people on the first day. Yesterday there were more people coming to eat. The girls at the silk factory said they wanted to buy a few.
I’m full of potatoes. That’s more than ten yuan a day.”
She felt exhausted after working for two days, but when she saw the money in her pocket, she felt that she still had to do business, and digging for food in the dirt could only fill her stomach, but it was not a long-term solution.
Lin Lan thought it was good to be able to sell so many in one day at the beginning: "Take your time, more and more people will know about it. Let me borrow your frame truck."
He Xianghua stood up with a smile: "You talk, I will pull you away."
Yang Meihua brought out a chair, asked her to sit down, looked at her and asked: "Lin Lan, besides fried potatoes, what else can be fried?"
Lin Lan thought for a while: "Dried tofu, stinky tofu, or leeks are all fine. You need to skewer the leeks with bamboo skewers and fry them."
"Leeks are not simple!" Yang Meihua pointed to the vegetable patch, "That ridge is full of leeks, and there are still some in the vegetable patch given to me by my uncle."
Lin Lan smiled and said: "You can make dozens of skewers and try them."
Yang Meihua nodded repeatedly: "Okay, I'll try fried leeks and then go to Liying's to buy tofu and stinky tofu."
He Xianghua pulled the frame truck into the courtyard and said to Lin Lan: "I have fully inflated the pneumatic tires. It will be easier to pull."
"Thank you, brother-in-law He." Lin Lan took it, thought for a moment and said, "Sister Li came to me just now and said that Zhang Yazhen disagreed with my family not raising cattle. I asked them to find the brigade cadres to resolve the matter."
He Xianghua thought for a moment: "I remember Accountant Jin said you quit your group, and they all agreed!"
"Yes! Zhang Yazhen and his wife didn't say anything at that time. Now it's their turn. He said it's not his turn, but my family's turn to raise cattle."
"Don't worry about them, wait until they find the brigade."
"Okay, I'll go back first."
Lin Lan pulled the cart out and walked out. Yang Meihua walked her to the entrance of the hospital before turning around.
Lin Lan returned home, moved the goods to the rack truck, took the key and said to Qiaohui: "Carpenter Li will come later, and you ask them to come to us at Chengnan Gate Market."
"Hey!" Qiao Hui responded.
Lin Lan and Li Xiangyang pulled the rack truck to the store on Limin Road. As soon as they opened the door and carried a bag of goods in, Chen Dongming heard the noise next door and came out.
Seeing Lin Lan and Li Xiangyang carrying things, they also ran over to help.
After the goods were moved upstairs and put away, the two thanked Chen Dongming. Li Xiangyang looked at the store and said, "Xiaolan, where do you plan to open the clothing store?"
Lin Lan smiled and said: "The clothing store won't open next to Sister Zhou. Let's open the shop you bought from. We'll sell cakes in the other room here, and the other two rooms will be used to sell small household appliances. What do you think?"
Li Xiangyang nodded: "It's okay, Dongzi said it's better not to open too much at the beginning. Some people oppose the new policy and some support it. In the end of the struggle between the two parties, either the east wind will overwhelm the west wind, or the west wind will overwhelm the east wind."
Lin Lan said: "Be careful with the ten thousand-year-old boat. One bite will not make you fat. Let's make it smaller first, and then expand it when the policy is stable." She knew the outcome, and the policy of reform and opening up would only get better and better.
In the first few years, she was still young, and her family's business was a small business, so she was not affected. She vaguely remembers her parents saying that those who opened shops had to stop because the taxes and fees were too heavy, and the money they earned was not enough to pay the taxes.
closed.
Li Xiangyang thought the same thing: "The pastry shop is in the city. It is inconvenient to prepare it in Lexing and send it to the city. What are your plans?"
"The pastry shop is located in the Chengnan Vegetable Market. I want to ask the uncle who built the stove to help me build a bigger stove. This time I went to Yangcheng to buy two thermometers to better control the time."
"Don't you want to use the oven? The oven will be here in two weeks!"
"The oven is useful for baking pumpkin cakes and bread, but you still need to use an oven to bake mooncakes." Lin Lan paused, "Carpenter Li and the others will come later. You can take them to buy glass."
