Everyone in Shengli Brigade knew that the educated youth Xiao Jiang wanted to build a fish pond and raise fish at his own expense, so as to lead his fellow villagers to become rich together.

Some people think she is stupid for not holding on to her money but giving it away.

Some people also thought that Jiang Yan was smart. They didn't know where they got the news from, but they knew that not all the income from the fish pond belonged to the production team, and a portion of it had to be allocated to Jiang Yan.

As for the money for building the fish pond and purchasing equipment, it was all borrowed from the brigade and Jiang Yan, and it would be repaid when the fish pond made money in the future.

No one knows whether there will be interest or not, but the members have different opinions on building the fish pond.

Some people don't believe that they can make money at all, while others are taking a wait-and-see attitude.

Even the leaders of the commune came, which shows that they take this matter very seriously. Maybe, the educated youth Xiao Jiang can really help everyone live a prosperous life.

After all, he is an educated person, his family was rich before, he is knowledgeable and capable!

It was for this reason that Dong Shuang asked Jiang Yan whether the money in the pond belonged to the team or to her personally.

"The fish pond is not mine. I just lent money to the brigade. If that's the case, everyone should have a share of the fish in the pond."

Chang Li felt that there were not many fish in the puddle. "I went to the countryside early, and heard from the old people in the village that during the famine a few years ago, the bark of the trees on the mountain was almost eaten up. They did not let this puddle go either, and they caught and ate the small fish as long as a finger. I am afraid it has dried up now."

"Ah, that's it."

Jiang Yan smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'll discuss it with the captain later. If there are really fish, I'll buy you two."

Dong Shuang shook his head, "I can't let you spend money, I'll buy it myself."

"Okay, okay, I'll listen to you. I'll go to the team compound now, so you don't have to cook for me in the evening."

"Okay, got it."

Jiang Yan went directly to the production team compound. Only Accountant Ma was there. No one knew where the team leader and Li Changsheng were.

Accountant Ma asked Jiang Yan to sit down and wait for a while, and poured her some water.

"Uncle Ma, stop busying yourself. I have some water here." Jiang Yan shook his military green kettle, opened it and took a sip.

She didn't dare to use the cups of the rough men in the production team, so she was used to bringing her own kettle when she went out.

After waiting for a few minutes, footsteps were heard in the yard.

The people who came were none other than Bao Zhiguo, Li Changsheng and Si Lu. They were followed by several young men who carried the water pump, accessories, pipes and other things into the yard.

When the water pump was first delivered to the village, it caused quite a stir. With this thing, people can pump river water for irrigation, which can save a lot of effort when watering in the summer.

They have been learning how to use water pumps, including some maintenance techniques, from technicians at Hexian Machinery Factory.

After the water pump was installed and debugged, the staff of the county machinery factory went back. Bao Zhiguo liked this big treasure more and more, so he simply asked someone to carry the thing to the production team.

"Be careful." Bao Zhiguo opened the door of the warehouse, asked someone to carry the water pump in, and found a piece of tarpaulin to cover it carefully. Then he locked the door and hung the key back on his waist.

"Captain, when can we eat fish?"

"You haven't even built the fish pond yet, and you're already thinking about eating fish, kid." Bao Zhiguo cursed with a smile, "Get lost, build the fish pond first."

"I know, let's go."

"Captain, we're going back first."

"Go back!"

Bao Zhiguo smiled and waved, then patted Si Lu on the shoulder, "Come on, let's go in!"

While the two were talking, Jiang Yan had already stood up and walked to the door.

"Xiao Jiang, the educated youth, is here. It's just right." Bao Zhiguo said, "Your aunt has already prepared the meal. She will bring it to us soon. Don't leave. Let's eat here today and discuss the matter of building the fish pond while we eat. How about that?"

"Okay." What opinion could Jiang Yan have? Besides, Bao Zhiguo might have other intentions in doing this.

Although the matter of Su Yun was not mentioned explicitly, Bao Zhiguo had talked with Si Lu for a long time before, so he must have told him everything. This meal was also meant as an apology.

In any case, the divorce of Bao Shengli and Su Yun also proved the character of the Bao family from another perspective. Jiang Yan accepted all their goodwill.

When Bao Zhiguo saw that Jiang Yan agreed, the smile in his eyes became even more obvious.

"Okay, everyone, sit down and talk."

Jiang Yan sat inside, Si Lu sat next to her. Li Changsheng and Accountant Ma sat opposite them respectively, only Bao Zhiguo moved a stool and sat aside.

At this time of year, Melbourne is already very cold, especially the temperature difference between morning and evening is huge.

When Jiang Yan came, she was carrying a green military backpack, inside which was a thin cotton vest. It was made of dark blue fabric, a nostalgic style, and had no labels, so it was just the right size to wear.

The original owner was in a frail body. Even though she had been taking care of herself for such a long time and her health had improved a lot, she was still a little afraid of the cold.

Putting on the vest, I feel warm all over.

Bao Zhiguo said, "We need to install this stove quickly. It's so cold in the morning that we can't even stretch out our hands."

Li Changsheng nodded immediately, "It will be fine tomorrow."

"Xiao Jiang, the weather is getting cold. When will the fish pond construction start?"

"In my opinion, the sooner the better." Jiang Yan said: "With a pump, the puddle can be drained in half a day. The silt inside must also be cleared and covered with an anti-seepage soil membrane..."

Bao Zhiguo was puzzled. "Where can I get the anti-seepage soil membrane? I've heard that it's used in building reservoirs. It's a high-end product."

"I'll find a way, Captain. Just send someone to drain the puddle. I don't know if there are any fish in it."

"Maybe we can get some! When we catch them, we can share them among us." Bao Zhiguo just said, "Whoever helps clean the fish pond can get the fish."

He had no intention of giving work points, but to see the members' attitude towards fish farming. Those who supported and contributed would naturally receive benefits in the future. On the other hand, those who just wanted to take advantage could just stay where they wanted!

Bao Zhiguo is a man who knows how to identify and use people. He already has a suitable candidate in mind, but he still needs to wait and see.

"Will it take a long time to use that membrane?"

"Don't worry, Captain. I called my uncle last time and he will be here in a few days."

Bao Zhiguo felt relieved, "Okay, okay, the matter of the fish fry..."

He felt a little embarrassed. He let Xiao Jiang, the educated youth, take care of everything. They seemed like they were just there to do nothing.

"It's all arranged. All we have to do is wait! Let's get the infrastructure ready first. We need to build a house next to the puddle."

Jiang Yan's eyes lit up. That's right! Why can't we just build a house?
