Rebirth 1984 Wife and children are on the hot bed

The county medicinal company has been purchasing red ginseng one after another recently.

Xu Dahai planned to buy the red ginseng from some ginseng households before the medicinal company did.

If you don’t have enough money, just pay a deposit first. Anyway, you have to keep their red ginseng first.

Otherwise, if all the red ginseng goes into the pockets of the medicinal company, then there will be nothing he can do.

"It's okay for us in the village. The villagers in other villages don't know me. If I go and tell them, they might think I'm a liar.

Dad, you are different. Although your reputation is not very good, at least many people know you. "

Father Xu Houtian's face darkened instantly: "You brat, what are you talking about? I'll beat you up! What do you mean my reputation is not good?"

The sun's shadow is setting in the west, and the tired birds are returning to the woods.

After school, the children in the village began to run around and play. Some went to catch rabbits and pheasants with traps, and some went to play with pia and icebergs.

Playing small games can defeat the cold. Even if their hands and ears are covered with frostbite, they are still very enthusiastic.

Father Xu Houtian thought for a while and suddenly said: "Buy me a pack of good cigarettes. I haven't had a good cigarette for a long time."

"I...are you still bargaining with me?" Xu Dahai looked shocked.

"How about that? I'm your father, but you can't treat me like a free animal? I don't care how much money you make, just buy me a pack of good cigarettes, otherwise I won't go."

"Okay, okay, you cow. Come on, let's go buy it."

The father and son walked through the crunching snow to the canteen.

When passing near my grandfather's house, I happened to meet my grandfather's old comrade-in-arms, the neighbor "Master Liu".

He was tall, wearing a thick military green coat and a dog-skin hat, and carried a shotgun on his back.

He was also carrying two fat wild rabbits in his hands.

Behind him was a little black dog with a smile on his face and a wagging tail.

Seeing Xu Dahai and his son, the little black dog immediately ran to them, jumping around in circles and wagging its tail more cheerfully.

Xu Dahai bent down slightly and stroked the little black dog with a smile. The little guy bent down and stuck out his tongue to lick his hand.

"Master Liu, are you going hunting?"

"Just wandering around, Xiao Hei caught these two wild rabbits."

"Xiao Hei is so awesome!"

"Well, are you two going to have a good time?"

"Go to the canteen to buy something. Let's go, Mr. Liu."

After chatting with each other for a while with a smile, they separated. Father Xu Houtian didn't talk to him from the beginning to the end. He knew that Mr. Liu didn't like him, so he lazily put his hot face on his cold butt.

After arriving at the canteen.

Although there are more than ten kinds of cigarettes here, most of them are the cheapest.

This is also easy to understand. Villagers generally grow their own yellow tobacco, cut it into thin shreds, press it into tobacco bags and pots, or tear out calendar brand cigarettes.

Therefore, the cigarettes produced by the tobacco factory are not easy to sell.

"Can you tell me what cigarette you want?"

“Get a box of Harbin.”

The most expensive cigarette here is "Harbin", the name is the name of the capital of Heilongjiang Province, and the unit price is 1 yuan and 1 cents.

Xu Dahai didn't say anything and paid directly.

Father Xu Houtian got a cigarette, and instantly smiled brightly. He tore open the package and smoked a cigarette, slowly blowing out the smoke through his nose with a look of enjoyment on his face.

The canteen owner looked at the father and son curiously, wondering what kind of trouble they were having today.

"Let's go, let's go to Lianggou Village first. Is there anyone you know in Lianggou Village?"

"Should we go now? It's getting dark, so we can go tomorrow."

"That won't work. Let's go and stop inking."

……

Xu Dahai rode his [-]-meter pole and took his father to Lianggou Village next door.

Father Xu Houtian does know many more people than Xu Dahai. He has lived for decades and knows most of the people in Lianggou Village.

Even if you don’t know some young people, you can still know whose family they belong to through their parents, grandparents, etc.

The two first went to the village chief's house in Lianggou Village. The father reluctantly took out a Harbin and handed it over. After explaining his intention, the other party was very willing to help.

Because Xu Dahai is willing to pay 3 yuan more for every kilogram of red ginseng, this is really a great thing like pie in the sky for the hard-working folks.

"Come on, I'll take you two for a while."

The village chief also had more than 50 kilograms of red ginseng at home. After collecting the 10 yuan deposit from Xu Dahai, he inserted the big cigarette bag into his waist and walked outside with Xu Dahai and his son, hands behind his back.

Give the deposit now.

When Xu Dahai wants to take away their red ginseng, he must pay the full price. Credit is not an option, and the villagers will not agree.

With the endorsement of the old village chief, plus the fact that there was no risk, and he could make a lot more money, everyone who had red ginseng agreed to sell it to Xu Dahai.

He was also very enthusiastic and polite to the father and son. Some of them took out the fine wines they had collected and invited their ladies to cook some good dishes, asking them to sit down and have a drink together.

My father, Xu Houtian, originally felt a little lacking in confidence.

Because he thought this was speculation and illegal, but when he saw that the villagers in every household were so enthusiastic, some called him "Brother Houtian".

This made him feel that he had gained face, his chest became straighter, and his waist became straight.

"What a pity (liao), my second brother's red ginseng has been sold to a medicinal company."

After walking out of a villager's home that raised 4 to 5 big fat pigs, stepping on the thick snow, the old village chief of Lianggou Village sighed.

Some villagers have already sold their red ginseng to medicinal companies and drove ox carts to the county to sell it themselves.

In fact, even if they don't go to the county, people from the medicinal company will go to the countryside to buy red ginseng after a while.

As for why some villagers are so active - some are in urgent need of money and can't wait for the slow-moving uncles from the medicinal company; others are afraid of attracting thieves. Red ginseng is too valuable and is too easy to be targeted by thieves.

"Xiao Hai, we can't let the old village chief help us in vain this late at night, so we should give him 10 yuan for his hard work."

While walking back, dad Xu Houtian suddenly said.

It was dinner time now, and he couldn't resist the warm hospitality. He had drunk wine at many villagers' houses, and his face was red.

Mainly Xu Houtian felt that when others toasted him, they looked down on him, and he had to give others face.

If you don't drink, it will seem like you are a jerk and look down on others, which will make the villagers unable to stand up. This is not good.

Of course, he himself knows whether he really wants to take advantage of the villagers.

Xu Dahai obediently handed the old village chief a big solidarity card, but the big solidarity card seemed to be hot to the touch, and the latter repeatedly refused and didn't want it at all.

Lianggou Village and Xujia Village are next to each other.

The other party is the village chief of Lianggou Village, and he may have to deal with him in the future. Besides, the other party did help a lot tonight.

So Xu Dahai went to the canteen and bought 5 boxes of Harbin, 2 kilograms of rice cakes, and 2 bottles of cans, and brought them to the other party's home.

The old village chief had already taken off his shoes and got on the kang, and was chatting with his wife. He was startled when he saw what Xu Dahai had brought.

This is really a big deal for someone who is not related to relatives.

After refusing for a while, the other party refused to accept it. Xu Dahai almost couldn't stand it anymore, so he quickly put down his things and ran away.

When the old village chief chased him out with his cotton shoes and things, he found that Xu Dahai and his son had already left.

"This child is real and looks good. I wonder if he is married." The old village chief returned to the house slowly.

The village chief's wife said: "What? Who do you want to matchmaking with?"

"Isn't it true that the second daughter of the old Liu family who sells sesame cakes hasn't married into her husband's family yet?"
