Reborn in the 60s and adopted

"Then what should we do? Does it cost a lot of money?" Wan Zhonghua's old face wrinkled when he talked about money.

"Hey, Secretary Xiao Tang, to be honest, although our village has a good harvest this year, the taxes are heavy. After paying the taxes,

The remaining food can only feed the members until next year. I really want to support you, but our team can't afford the extra money now." Wan Zhonghua looked guilty. He had just promised Secretary Tang to support him, but now he had to break his promise.

The light in the eyes of the scorer standing by also dimmed as their captain spoke, and he became dejected.

Tang Mei frowned. Why hadn't she heard Uncle Wang say that there would be a tax increase this year?

Forget it, let’s put the tax issue aside for now. Never mind, let’s first motivate the Shuangjing Brigade.

"You don't have to worry about the money, the commune will pay for it, but your team will have to provide the manpower," said Tang Mei.

As Tang Mei finished speaking, Wan Zhonghua and the scorekeeper's eyes lit up. "There's no problem with manpower. What our village lacks the least is people. Is this true?"

"Really? I've already asked someone to buy the film. Also, when the vegetables in your village are ripe, our commune will buy them at the market price. My main goal is to generate income for your village."

Tang Mei planned that when the villagers have money, they can each contribute some money to repair the road in front of them. Although it is just a small road, it can also make it more convenient for the villagers to travel. As for the other roads in the village, they can take their time. As long as everyone works together, there will always be a day when they can be repaired.

Of course, the money Tang Mei had could only build a main road, and the team did not have enough funds for the time being.

Moreover, she also has to consider the development of other areas and cannot spend all the money on road construction.

Therefore, for now, we can only find ways to make money, and then come back to build roads when we have made enough money.

After hearing her words, Wan Zhonghua was very happy and excited.

As he walked, he clapped his hands and stamped his feet, muttering, "Good, good, really good."

He knew what this meant to the village, not only increasing income but also improving living conditions.

The scorer saw how excited the captain was and became happy too.

"But specifically, what can we do to ensure that the vegetables can be grown well?" Wan Zhonghua suddenly had another worry.

Tang Mei patiently replied: "Don't worry about the book. I will contact some agricultural experts to provide detailed planting guidance and regularly let everyone master scientific planting methods. As long as everyone studies hard and practices actively, they will definitely succeed."

Wan Zhonghua nodded repeatedly to show his agreement: "Okay, then let's do as you say. With your help, we can definitely get this done. By the way, I also want to ask, will the vegetables made in this greenhouse be more expensive than those sold outside?"

Tang Mei smiled and shook her head: "If it's just for our own people in the commune, then the price will definitely not be very high, but if we want to go to the county, we will need manpower and vehicles, but you don't need to worry about this, as long as our vegetables are of high quality and taste fresh, they will definitely sell well."

"Oh, I can imagine how popular the vegetables will be after they mature." The statistician laughed excitedly.

However, he still reminded rationally: "Secretary Tang, why don't you take us to see the place where you plan to plant vegetables? This way we can prepare in advance."

Tang Mei nodded: "Okay, implement it as soon as possible, and you can start your work earlier."

The scorer led the excited team leader Wan Zhonghua in front, with Tang Mei and Luo Xiuyun following behind.

Soon, the group of four arrived at a large sandy area where Tang Yongli had brought a few people last time.

"Here?" The scorekeeper looked at Tang Mei anxiously. This place was prone to flooding, and now that autumn has arrived, it is covered with grass. It doesn't look like a place to grow vegetables.

Tang Mei looked at the sandy land covered with grass and nodded with satisfaction: "This is where we came last time. Captain, when will you arrange for people to clean up this place? I want to build 100 greenhouses here."

"How much?" Wan Zhonghua's lips were shaking as he spoke.

He thought he had heard wrongly. A greenhouse costs a lot of money! How much would 100 of them cost?

“I still think 100 is too few, but I have other plans for my money, otherwise I would have built more.”

Tang Mei still felt regretful because only half of the money she got last time was left, and she had to leave it for her father to build the road, otherwise the transportation of the vegetables would be a problem.

Wan Zhonghua took a deep breath in his heart. Fortunately, only their village needed to provide people. Otherwise, the money from selling these 100 greenhouses would not be enough to fill the gap even if he sold them several times.

"So we're going to start working on it today?"

"Yes, the old, weak, women and children in the team can come and help pick vegetables. It will also be convenient for you to water the vegetables. When the time comes, I will get you a generator at the machinery factory to pump water." Tang Mei said as she walked towards the river.

"Okay, Wanxun, go and gather some people. Don't let the strong laborers move yet. Call more diligent women to pull the grass and level the ground first." Wan Zhonghua was also very efficient and immediately gave instructions to the scorekeeper.

"Ah!" The scorekeeper's voice was so excited that it changed into a different tone. He was just like a big rooster, with his face flushed with excitement. He jumped three feet high, as if his butt was on fire, and with a whoosh, he rushed out like an arrow from a bow. Now he was so excited that he began to imagine how spectacular their 100 greenhouses were.

"Secretary Tang, what do you do after you clean up the lawn?" Wan Zhonghua looked like a good student and asked Tang Mei seriously.

“Well… dig a ditch, 2 meters wide, for easy drainage, and then cut bamboo, cut more bamboo, and use it to arch the film when the film comes back.

We should also make use of this year's rice straw and make it like the straw on the roof. Make more and use it as a quilt when the frost comes." Tang Mei said what she could think of first.

Wan Zhonghua listened carefully and remembered everything in his mind, "Anything else?"

The two discussed for a while and decided to adapt to the local conditions. Wan Zhonghua thought about where the fertilizer for the more than 100 sheds would come from.

"You have already fermented fertilizer. This year, ferment more green materials. Forget it, just buy fertilizer." Tang Mei thought about it and felt that the bean stalks and corn stalks were now used to feed pigs and cows, so it would be a bit of a waste to use them to ferment fertilizer.

"Then the quota for buying fertilizer is too difficult to get. Can you really buy it?" Wan Zhonghua looked at Tang Mei and asked with some doubt. He thought to himself: So many brigades and communes want fertilizer, how can it be bought easily? He couldn't help but start to doubt Tang Mei.

After hearing this, Tang Mei smiled nonchalantly and said, "What's so difficult about this? If I really can't buy it, the worst that can happen is that I can go to Baozhu Brigade and carry back chicken manure. It's the same thing." She felt that this method was very feasible and it was not a difficult task for her. She just needed to provide a few tractors.

"When did Baozhu Brigade have so much chicken shit?" Wan Zhonghua muttered to himself. As he thought about it, he felt that Tang Mei's idea was a bit naive. After all, it was not easy to find enough fertilizer.

At this moment, there was a sudden roar from the front, as if something was approaching quickly.

Tang Mei, Wan Zhonghua and others looked curiously in the direction where the sound came from, only to see a cloud of dust rising up, forming a gray mist.

After a while, the dust and fog quickly came in front of Tang Mei and the other two.

"This... cough cough..." As soon as Tang Mei opened her mouth, a strong smell of dust hit her in the face, making her cough uncontrollably.

She tried to cover her mouth with her hands, but to no avail. The dust continued to enter her respiratory tract, making her feel very uncomfortable.

The other two were not much better. By the time they had finished coughing, the dust around them gradually dissipated.

Tang Mei and Wan Zhonghua looked closely and found dozens of dusty aunts appearing in front of them.

These aunts looked like they had just experienced a fierce battle. Each of their faces was covered with dust and their hair was messed up by the wind. It was obvious that they had come running here immediately after hearing the news.

The aunts all stared at Tang Mei with sparkling eyes, as if they were staring at a piece of fat meat, which made Tang Mei feel creepy.

One of the ladies shook Tang Mei's hand enthusiastically and said, "Hey, this is Secretary Tang from the commune. Hello, hello. I heard that you want to build 100 greenhouses for our village. That's amazing. Now tell me what you need me to do. I'll do whatever you tell me to do."

Tang Mei was stunned by her enthusiasm.

Seeing this, Wan Zhonghua quickly scolded, "Wan Liang's wife, you scared Secretary Xiao Tang. Hurry up and arrange for someone to pull up all the grass on the sand."

Wan Liang's wife took a look at Tang Mei, and her heart was filled with love for this golden child. She immediately agreed, "Sisters, let's get started."

After she finished speaking, she swung the sickle in her hand, and the people behind her rushed down. Soon a large area of ​​grass was pulled clean by them while they were talking and laughing.

"Uncle Wan, your village is moving so fast." Tang Mei exclaimed.

"I'm not bragging, but the girls and wives in our village are the most hardworking." Wan Zhonghua said proudly.

Seeing that they were working quite fast, Tang Mei felt relieved. As long as she worked diligently, she could complete her greenhouse task.

"Uncle, Luo Wenshu and I will go back to the commune first. You just need to do it according to my requirements." Tang Mei began to say goodbye to Wan Zhonghua.

"Secretary Tang, you agreed to come to my house for dinner. I'll ask your sister-in-law to go back and prepare it." Wan Zhonghua hurried to call someone.

"Uncle, no, no, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future. I will come here often. Seeing that your village is so active, I have to get more seeds now so that I can grow seedlings when the time comes." Tang Mei was not just talking nonsense, but she really wanted to arrange someone to buy seeds.

"Okay, that business is more important. Don't refuse me next time I come." Wan Zhonghua invited enthusiastically.

Tang Mei nodded and took Luo Xiuyun back to the commune’s staff quarters.
