Hello 1983

"The superiors called for the implementation of family planning and resolutely eliminated mistresses. From tomorrow onwards, every man in every household must go to the commune health center to wear rings and have them vasectomyed!"

This almost scared the old men in the village to death, Da Zhang Luo was puzzled, and couldn't help shouting:

"Isn't it just old women who wear rings? Where do you wear rings when this man wears them?"

Captain Zhang yelled at him angrily: "Wherever you take it, put it on the side of the thing you caused trouble, and tie it firmly for you, so as not to be blind!"

It was only later that I figured out that the little people drawn in the captain's notebook had forgotten to mark men and women, which resulted in confusion.

During dinner, there were indeed two plates of braised soft-shelled turtles on the table.

The soft-shelled turtle was slaughtered by Liu Qingshan at noon, and the soft-shelled turtle and the surrounding skirt were carefully cleaned with a brush.

Then cut into small pieces and blanch in water. When the water was blanching, there was no cooking wine at home, so I added half a spoonful of white wine to remove the fishy smell, and the rest was simmered in a pot over low heat.

The soft-shelled turtle is very nutritious, and it is the best for people with weak health, so Liu Qingshan tasted a piece of it symbolically, and gave the rest to his family and Grandpa Wang.

The best thing was the soft-shelled turtle skirt. I got a piece for each of the fourth and fifth children, and the two little guys ate happily.

Liu Qingshan felt that in the next ten and a half months, he would get a soft-shelled turtle for his family.

Especially mothers and grandparents, make up for what they owe. As the family's conditions get better and better, prolonging life should not be a problem in the long run.

Especially my mother, she can't be overworked and exhausted like in her previous life.

In the morning of the next day, Liu Qingshan drove the jeep, took the captain's uncle and the branch secretary's grandfather to the commune for a meeting.

In the crude meeting room of the commune, there were hundreds of people in the dark. In addition to the representatives from the various brigades, there were also the heads of the various units of the commune and all the commune cadres. It was very grand.

At [-] o'clock in the morning, the meeting officially started. First, a document was distributed to each brigade, and then Secretary Sun Hongtao took the lead in speaking.

The old branch secretary even told Liu Qingshan in a low voice, telling him to take good records.

Liu Qingshan also nodded with a smile, but never started to write, because there was no need to write, what Secretary Sun conveyed was the "Mountain Wild Vegetables Plan" drafted by him.

It is now mid-April, and with the return of spring to the earth, wild vegetables are about to emerge one after another.

Therefore, from the county to the commune, they all attach great importance to this work involving export and earning foreign exchange, and make urgent deployments.

Before starting, Secretary Sun reported a piece of good news: the county has reached an agreement with foreign businessmen to purchase wild vegetables.

Everyone didn't pay much attention at first, but when they heard that the most common bracken can be sold for nearly one yuan a catty, they immediately widened their eyes.

Not only bracken, but some wild vegetables they are familiar with are not cheap. A catty of wild dried black fungus can be sold for 15 yuan.

My mother, this is not pie in the sky, it is money in the sky.

Everyone was so excited that they were gearing up, wishing they could dive into the woods now.

As a result, Secretary Sun's speech was interrupted several times by excited people.

This made Secretary Sun knock on the table: "Comrades, be quiet, don't get excited, this is the source of income that the higher-ups won for us. I heard that when negotiating with foreign businessmen, there was almost no fight. Everyone must cherish this opportunity." Not an easy opportunity."

"The most important thing is that we used to regard wild vegetables as grass, but now we have suddenly turned into Bao'er and become a hot commodity. Then when harvesting, we must strictly abide by the county's regulations. Anyone who dares to violate It must be dealt with seriously!"

The village secretary and captain below calmed down a little and listened attentively to Secretary Sun's speech:

"In order to avoid disputes, our commune divides the mountain land and forest land it belongs to. When the time comes, we can collect our own, and no one is allowed to fish beyond the boundary."

This is a must. Now that wild vegetables are valuable, why not grab the attention?

The local folk customs are tough, and robbing wild vegetables is robbing money, so it would be strange not to fight.

Then I started to explain the plan. In the plan, when picking all kinds of wild vegetables, what precautions should be taken to ensure sustainable development, and there are detailed introductions.

For example, when picking old thorn buds, you must not break off the lower branches;

When picking bracken and other ferns, it is good to break them gently, so as not to damage the roots below;

For day lily, just pick the buds on the top, and don’t damage the branches and leaves below...

For all kinds of wild vegetables and fungi, remember not to be greedy, to wipe them all out, and to leave time and space for them to grow and multiply. According to the proposal in the plan: pick the big and let go of the small, pick ten and keep one.

Another big aspect is that if there is harvest, there must be seed.

You can't just ask for it, but also pay attention to reasonable transplanting to ensure that every kind of wild vegetable resources can be used sustainably.

Let’s still take the old thorn buds as an example: this thing is also easy to work, and villagers can be organized every year to plant more branches in the open space in the forest, so that the output will gradually increase.

You must not hold the idea of ​​​​changing a place with a single shot, and destroy all the resources. Wouldn't you be blind in the next year?

This plan is written in plain language, easy to understand, highly operable, and free of empty words.

In previous meetings, everyone was drowsy, but today they are very energetic, and they listened with gusto, and learned a lot of the tricks mentioned above.

Secretary Sun finally said: "As farmers, we must also learn to take a long-term view. I will end with a sentence in this plan, that is, to leave some wealth for future generations!"

Most of the people present here are farmers who cultivate the land. After hearing this, they all trembled in their hearts: That's right, if we are all harmed, the future generations will not be able to lift our coffin boards?

Be sure to leave something for future generations!

Chapter 186 Here Comes a Big Deal

On the way back from the commune, Liu Qingshan was in a good mood.

If it can be picked reasonably from the beginning, the resources of wild vegetables and fungi in the forest will not be exhausted. This is also the most meaningful thing he has done.

It's relatively easy to earn a little money for yourself or your family.

Things like this are not up to him, and they are out of his ability, so he has to work hard to win the support of the above.

The old branch secretary and Captain Zhang were also very excited. They also did not expect that the mountain wild vegetables that were originally like wild grasses turned into gold.

Along the way, Captain Zhang never closed his big mouth, and kept saying:

"Qingshan, thanks to you, you led the group to pick a lot of mushrooms and fungus last fall. It's all money. We'll go to the supply and marketing cooperative in two days and sell them all!"

Then he continued to grumble: "If I knew this, last year at the beginning of spring, I organized everyone to pick more bracken and so on. It cost one yuan a catty."

While talking about it, he slapped his thigh in regret.

Although the old branch secretary was also excited, he was still calm after all, and asked Liu Qingshan: "Qingshan, I see that you didn't memorize a single word during the meeting, can your mind remember everything?"

"Haha, Grandpa Party Secretary, that plan was researched by me and the county magistrate together."

Only then did Liu Qingshan give them the real bottom.

Those two were overjoyed after hearing this: "Haha, our Qingshan is the best!"

In the evening of that day, a village meeting was held in the yard, and naturally Liu Qingshan was the keynote speaker.

When it was mentioned that the supply and marketing cooperatives were buying mountain wild vegetables and mushrooms and fungus at high prices, I saw Zhang Dashuai jumped up from the small bench and ran home in a hurry.

"It's a meeting, what are you doing, handsome, you're a shitty asshole?"

Captain Zhang yelled.

Dashuai Zhang yelled without turning his head: "I'll go home quickly and have a look. My wife said that the two bags of dried mushrooms I picked last year were in the way in the barn. In the summer, bugs are easy to grow. I have to fill the stove pit and burn the kang. This prodigal girl..."

Everyone laughed for a while, but looking back, no one took this as a good thing.

Last autumn, I picked it up with great effort, but I never sold it. I thought it was a throwaway.

As a result, according to the price announced just now, black fungus costs 15 yuan a catty; dried hazel mushrooms cost 30 or [-] yuan a catty; dried frozen mushrooms cost [-] yuan a catty; , Scared me to death.

While everyone was discussing, they heard a crackling sound, they all looked over and saw Zhang Shuzi's father, scratching his ear, muttering:

"I knew the monkey head was so valuable. During the Chinese New Year, I would never be willing to use it to stew chicken!"

The people around quickly grabbed him, and then pulled him down, his face was swollen.

When the excitement gradually calmed down, people turned their eyes to Liu Qingshan one after another, their eyes were extremely eager.

It's this boy who led the group to pick mountain products last year. Whose wood ear mushrooms are now worth a few hundred dollars?

This kind of vision, this kind of knowledge, and most importantly, this kind of sincerity to the folks, is rare.

With such a leader, it is difficult to think of a good life!

"Qing Shan, you are benevolent!"

Grandpa Kidnapper stood up tremblingly, hitting the ground hard with the crutch in his hand.

The old man's words also represented the aspirations of all the villagers, and everyone nodded along.

This made Liu Qingshan excited too: If people change their hearts, if they can get the approval of the villagers, everything he has done is worth it.

Next, he began to explain the plan. Liu Qingshan said it in combination with the actual situation, and it was more operable. Even Zhang Ganzi, who was not well educated, said he understood and knew what to do.

After breakfast the next day, each household gathered at the team headquarters with sacks and flour bags on their shoulders.

Inside the bag are all mountain products such as mushrooms and fungus. They Jiapigou are going to sell the first batch of mountain products today.

After the bags have been weighed, the boss uncle will mark the names of each family on the bags.

Because when buying, it is also divided into grades, and the prices of each grade are also different, so they cannot be mixed together.

A large truck and a small four-wheeler were fully installed, but I still haven't loaded it.

The main reason is that these dry goods are relatively light and not resistant to pressure, so they take up a lot of space.

In the end, two more carriages were set up, and all the things were taken away.

The three senior members of the village committee, together with Liu Qingshan, also took a few strong young men to work as loaders, and went straight to the commune.

The mountain products harvested last summer and autumn should also be distributed uniformly by the cooperative.

However, considering that there were no large-scale acquisitions at that time, it was unknown what the prospects would be. In the end, each family returned to each other, which was about the same anyway.

The carriage behind was too slow, so they gathered at the gate of the supply and marketing cooperative, and then entered the courtyard together.

The gate of the supply and marketing cooperative was not open, and vehicles couldn't get in, so everyone went in first with a few bags of more expensive monkey heads.

Although the mobilization meetings of the various brigades were just completed yesterday, some villagers have come here to sell some of their stocks, which can be regarded as exploring the way.

It's just that they don't collect on a large scale, they are all three catties and two catties, and they keep what they eat at home, and now they sell it.

The backyard of the supply and marketing cooperative is a big house, full of warehouses, and the temporary purchase point is set in front of a big warehouse.

According to the requirements of the county, multiple departments jointly carry out the purchase, so the local product department also sent two experienced masters to take care of it. After all, the purchase of mountain products also requires knowledgeable people.

There are also two younger staff members who are responsible for weighing the goods after the master inspects and orders them.

There are not many mountain goods, so I use a plate scale, and a large scale next to it is useless at all.

After weighing the weight, someone next to you is in charge of billing, and finally goes to collect the money.

When Liu Qingshan and the others arrived, they found five or six villagers happily waiting in line.

An old man in his 50s was happily carrying a noodle bag and chatting with the people he knew next to him: "Thanks to my hard work and diligence last autumn, I picked two crops of fungus."

It was his turn during the conversation. There were more than three catties of dried fungus, and the quality was also first-class. It cost nearly 50 yuan, which made the old man laugh from ear to ear.

The people next to him also complimented: "Old man Ding, you've made a fortune, treat me later!"

The old man was also happy with his goatee: "I didn't say anything, I'm going to buy a box of filter tips, and everyone can try it."

Turning around, I was about to go to the supply and marketing agency to buy cigarettes, but I saw the old branch secretary and immediately said hello:

"Brother Zhang, you are guarding the Mantou Mountain in Jiapigou, and you are also here to sell mountain products?"

The old branch secretary nodded, and then took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket: "Come on, Xiao Ding smokes one."

Passed it around to several other people and the staff, everyone lit their cigarettes and took a puff, and immediately asked in surprise: "Why is this smoke still blowing cold wind?"

The old party secretary smoked a small cigarette pouch: "I'm not used to smoking the little devil's cigarettes, but our dry tobacco is the best."

What, foreign cigarettes?

Everyone looked at the old party secretary with strange eyes, and Liu Qingshan who was next to him wanted to laugh. He had brought the cigarette back to the old party secretary from the county.

I don't know if the branch secretary's grandfather is really not used to smoking, or is he showing off here?

While smoking a cigarette, old man Ding chatted with the old party secretary: "Old Zhang, I heard that you did a good job in Jiapigou last year. You are building a greenhouse and raising pigs. It has become a thousand yuan village?"

Someone beside him also interjected: "That's right, our village party secretary and team leader came back from Jiapigou to learn scriptures, and this year they are also busy raising pigs and building greenhouses."

A person in front of the queue humbly said to the old party secretary: "Why don't you sell mountain products first, my family belongs to the commune, don't worry, you came here by walking, it's quite a long way."

The old party secretary waved his hands with a smile: "You come first, we have a little too much mountain goods, and it will take time."

The man looked at the bags in the hands of Liu Qingshan and the others, and thought to himself: It seems that there are not many?

Those who have sold the mountain goods are not in a hurry to leave, they are all talking here eagerly, thinking about the income of the mountain goods this year, as long as they run around the mountain frequently and get a 200 yuan, it should be very easy.

Finally it was almost Jiapigou's turn, and Captain Zhang said to a staff member, "Our cars are all outside, can you open the gate?"
