The Age of Rebirth: Winning since the educated youth went to the countryside

Because Zhou Ziwen had to go to the post office to send a letter, the three decided to split up.

The Chen sisters went to buy some things they needed first, and Zhou Ziwen went to send letters. After they finished their work, they gathered together at the supply and marketing cooperative.

Sending the letter didn't take much time, and Zhou Ziwen came out of the post office quickly.

When he arrived at the supply and marketing cooperative, the Chen sisters had just finished shopping.

"You're here at the right time. We've already chosen the water tank and bucket. A water tank costs eight yuan, and a pair of buckets costs five yuan." Chen Shiying said.

"We'll come back later to buy water tanks and buckets. Now let's go to the food station to buy chickens!" Zhou Ziwen nodded.

I definitely have to buy water tanks and buckets, and the supply and marketing cooperative doesn't bargain on price, so I won't buy them if I like them.

"Do you really want to buy chicken?" Chen Shiying looked at Zhou Ziwen, as if to confirm the authenticity of what he said.

"Of course it's true. After raising chickens, we eat eggs." Zhou Ziwen recalled the taste of eggs.

The eggs of this era are not chickens fed in cages in later generations. These are authentic local eggs. Fry an egg and it will fill the house with fragrance!

"Then go and have a look!" Seeing that Zhou Ziwen was determined to buy it, Chen Shiying did not refuse.

She is also interested in raising chickens to eat eggs, but she doesn't know if it can be done.

The three of them went all the way to the food station, where all the pork was sold out.

There are still a few chickens, but they are all quite thin. At first glance, they are free-range chickens that have not been fed much food.

Think about it, in this era of scarcity of food and clothing, people don’t have enough to eat, so how can there be any extra to feed the animals?

At most, you can feed it some rotten vegetable leaves that are inedible in the field, and let it go out to find food on its own.

"Young men, are you educated youths who came to the countryside?" Upon hearing that Zhou Ziwen wanted to buy chickens to lay eggs, the staff at the food station instantly guessed their identities.

"Yes, you saw it?" Zhou Ziwen was not surprised when someone recognized him as an educated youth.

After all, they have only been in the countryside for a short time, so their temperament and clothing are different from the people here.

"Yes, you educated youths are easy to identify. I recognized them at a glance." The uncle at the food station said with a smile.

"But I advise you not to think about buying chickens to lay eggs. The chickens here don't lay eggs. If they could lay eggs, who would be willing to sell them!"

"So that's it. Thank you uncle for reminding me." After hearing this, Zhou Ziwen understood instantly.

Think about it, if hens can still lay eggs, who will sell them? Even if they are sold, they are selling eggs.

"If you really want to raise chickens, you can go to the countryside. Some people's homes will hatch chickens." The uncle at the food station ordered.

In this era, doing business is all about speculation, but raising chickens requires chickens.

The villagers hatched chicks and sold them to others, but even the authorities turned a blind eye to the matter.

What's more, selling chicks is not selling, it's exchanging.

Villagers exchange a few things with each other, and this is within the allowed range.

"Okay, thank you uncle for reminding me." Zhou Ziwen thanked him again.

"It's okay, you're welcome." The uncle waved his hand with a hearty smile on his face.

"It seems that our plan to raise chickens can only be postponed temporarily. When I get back, I will go find out if there is anyone in our village who is hatching chicks."

After leaving the food station, Zhou Ziwen said to the Chen sisters.

"If you really can't buy it, forget it, we won't raise it." Chen Shiying was afraid that Zhou Ziwen would be disappointed, so she comforted her.

"Well, it's getting late, let's go get something to eat first!" It was a rare trip to the county town, and Zhou Ziwen was ready to have a meal before going back.

The only places to eat here are state-owned restaurants.

"I'm treating you today. Can you order whatever you want?" Zhou Ziwen said generously.

"Show off!" Chen Shiying's eyes wandered and she glared at him gently, but she did not refuse.

After all, he and Chen Qiaoyi were in a relationship, so it was not too much to give him a meal.

"Okay, okay, I want to eat fish-flavored shredded pork." Chen Qiaoyi happily ordered a dish.

"Then let me order some shredded potatoes!" Chen Shiying said.

Both sisters knew that Zhou Ziwen was not short of money, and they were not polite when ordering. Each of them ordered the dish they liked.

"Let's add some braised pork! I heard the braised pork here tastes good." Zhou Ziwen also ordered a dish himself.

The portions of the dishes in the state-owned restaurant are very generous, and three dishes are enough for three people.

After paying the money and the ticket, it didn't take long for the dishes to be served.

Compared with noodles, their stir-fries taste better.

Especially the braised pork, which is fat but not greasy, glutinous and flavorful, and I still want to eat it after eating a piece.

The Chen sisters don't eat meat every day at home, and they have to work in the countryside for the next few days, which consumes a lot of energy every day, so they have long been craving for meat.

After the meal, the three of them were full.

Especially Chen Qiaoyi, who could hardly walk even if she touched her round belly.

"Sister, Brother Ziwen, please walk slower and let me eat." Chen Qiaoyi took small steps, fearing that she would shake out the food she ate if she didn't pay attention.

"You, if you can't eat, don't eat so much. Be careful if you get a stomachache when you get home." Chen Shiying glared at her sister angrily.

"The main thing is that the food in the state-owned restaurant is so delicious that I can't help it!" Chen Qiaoyi stuck out her tongue in embarrassment.

In fact, Zhou Ziwen didn't think the food in the state-owned restaurant was very delicious. The taste could only be said to be passable.

The only explanation why everyone eats so well is that they are too greedy for meat.

Thinking of this, Zhou Ziwen felt that the problem of eating meat should be solved as soon as possible.

This is not the past life. In the past life, he was tired of eating meat and felt tired when he saw fat meat.

This era is different. Now he can't help but salivate when he sees fat meat.

No one cares about things like three highs.

Because they were very full, the three of them walked slowly, just like walking, chatting along the way to the supply and marketing cooperative.

At the supply and marketing cooperative, the three started purchasing mode again.

In addition to the necessary items such as water tanks, buckets, hoes, and sickles, Zhou Ziwen also bought fish hooks, pliers, maces, and nails.

Fish hooks are naturally used for fishing.

As for things like pliers and hammers, they are mainly for preparedness. After all, in a family, there will inevitably be times when there is knocking.

Especially since his house is newly built, nails and hammers will be needed soon.

Since I came to the county town once, it would be best to buy back the things I use frequently.

So that when you need it urgently later, you don’t have it at home.

Zhou Ziwen came from a later generation and spent money lavishly without any thought of saving money.

In his opinion, if the money is gone before we make money, we must first improve the quality of life.

Of course, spending money is money spent, and it is not a waste of money, but relatively speaking, I don’t care that much about money.

When they came out of the supply and marketing cooperative, there was already a pile of things in front of them.
