Love in the Siheyuan: Starting from Jia Dongxu

"I will go back to the city tomorrow to make arrangements. When I deliver the vegetables the day after tomorrow, follow them to the factory. I will take them to the pig farm."

Jia Dongxu smiled. These young people are now learning how to raise pigs, although it has only been two days. But it is a good thing that they are obedient, willing to learn, study and work hard, so they must be supported and encouraged.

He really didn't expect that these people dug seven silage pits in just two days and even figured out how to seal them.

These young people did not have extra land for them to farm, and they did not have enough food to eat at home. All they did all day long was set traps in the mountains and catch wild rabbits.

Most of the rabbits that Jia Dongxu had collected before were caught by these people.

The boys were better off, but the girls couldn't even catch hares, and had to work under the scolding of adults every day.

"Uncle, give them some cornmeal to take home every day. You can't make money from raising pigs now, but now is the time to eat, so give them some." Jia Dongxu said with a smile.

"Okay, I'll arrange these. I've also told the families of the people who raise pigs that their hours will be counted towards the hours they spend growing vegetables. I'll be raising them first, and their families won't have any objections."

Jia Zhenye said, "We are about to see the money! I dare not think about it, it will only take a few weeks."

"Haha, second uncle, you make decisions quickly. If it were someone else, he would probably still be hesitating now." Jia Dongxu gave Jia Zhenye a thumbs up.

"You're right. For us country folk, the only loss is a loss of labor, which is not a big loss. If it succeeds, we will be lifted out of poverty and become rich."

Jia Zhenye laughed, "We are farmers. This kind of business of digging for food from the land is a sure profit, and even a fool can know how to do it."

"You didn't see Qin Dahe, he is obedient to me now, isn't it that the food is about to be served?"

"If you ask me, the next step is to buy some farming tools so that everyone can farm faster."

"Well, Uncle, you take care of the arrangements. Let everyone see the money first. The ground is frozen hard in winter and it's hard to work. Wait until winter is almost over and then go buy tools."

Jia Zhenye's wife looked at her son, then looked at him again. The envious Jia Zhang said, "Sister-in-law, you really know how to raise a son. Look at Dongxu, he is really capable."

"I haven't taught him anything. He worries all day long about how to feed my mother and me. Even though our family is poor, he still likes to think about it. Now that he has the ability, he helps everyone." What Jia Zhang meant was that no one cared about us when we were suffering.

Jia Zhenye's wife didn't seem to understand what he meant. She smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, your land and house are ready. Come back and stay more often when you have time. Let us compensate you."

"I'm afraid I won't have time in the future. When Huairu gives birth to the baby, I'm afraid I won't be able to handle it." said Jia Zhang.

He didn't even have time to eat and followed Qin Huairu to see the land allocated for his family.

"Huai Ru, if this yard is covered, it will be quite large. Wait until you have more children, otherwise the yard will be too empty." Jia Zhang looked at it and pointed to a few places, "Plant jujube trees and persimmon trees here, so that we can have fruits to eat."

Qin Huairu blushed as she listened to Jia Zhang saying, "It's a pity to leave such a large area empty. Let's grow some vegetables or something."

"Well, it is a bit big. It's just that the land is too big and it's all rocks. It's hard to level it." Jia Zhang's face was as smiling as a flower. She took a look and found that her land was the biggest.

After the house is built, I will come back to live here for a while. I also need to find a way to buy furniture and other things, otherwise it will be inconvenient.

……

After they finished their meal, Jia Dongxu went to sleep in the greenhouse.

This is very simple. When you sleep, put a bench on the vegetable garden, lay wooden boards on it as a bed, hang cloth on both sides to separate them, and then sleep like that.

Because the old houses were demolished, many families moved directly into the greenhouse to sleep.

It looks like they are really planning to spend the winter in the greenhouse.

Jia Dongxu had been traveling all day and was extremely tired. He fell asleep right on the bed.

The next day, no one who came to work in the greenhouse woke him up.

When he was woken up, Yu Yan watched from the side in the dark, "Dongxu, are you going to sleep in like this?"

"Well, I walked all day yesterday and I couldn't stand it anymore."

Jia Dongxu quickly got up and walked two steps, then frowned, "Oh no, my legs hurt!"

"Sit down, let me massage you!" Yu Yan said, and asked Jia Dongxu to sit on the bed and massage his legs.

"Political Commissar Yu, can you let the villagers come to the farm to help build dormitories and greenhouses? Everyone feels bad about this." Jia Dongxu asked after thinking for a while.

At this time, Yu Yan took out a piece of paper from his pocket and handed it over, then continued to pinch it.

When Jia Dongxu opened it, he saw three large handwritten words: Letter of Appointment.

After carefully looking at the content below, I saw that the person named Jia Dongxu was the consultant of the farm, and the person who signed below was Chen.

"Wow, the level of this farm is quite high, and it still needs this person's signature." Jia Dongxu said with a smile.

Yu Yan smiled as he pinched it, "Haha, it's good that you know. We are a confidential unit, so it's impossible to get in, but we can learn outside."

Jia Dongxu was delighted when he heard this. He was just worrying about the lack of manpower. "Okay, I know. Just continue to work for us for a month and learn it well."

"Let's learn one thing at a time, starting from building houses, clearing land, planting crops, harvesting, digging canals, raising pigs and chickens," Jia Dongxu said with a smile.

"I think you did it on purpose!" Yu Yan said, "Okay, just consider it as our support for the construction, and we will work for you."

"Haha, just think of it as prepayment for winter housing!" Jia Dongxu pointed at the greenhouse and smiled. "See? In the winter, you can live in that 10-acre greenhouse. I guarantee you won't freeze. If you live in a cave, you'll probably freeze to death."

"Well, that's a problem. It's not possible to live here. How about we build a few greenhouses first?" Yu Yan asked thoughtfully.

"Then you should check if there is any glass first. It's too expensive. You can't grow crops in a greenhouse without it."

"Well, this is a problem!" Yu Yan shook his head. He had asked for too many things from his superiors. If he wanted to wait for approval, he would have to wait for a while.

Yu Yan thought about it and rolled his eyes. Since Jia Dongxu raised the question, it was impossible not to ask him to come up with a solution.

"Dongxu, you are our consultant now, how do you think we can solve this problem?"

"Buying glass requires real money, Political Commissar Yu, but I can't make any money." Jia Dongxu said quickly.

"Well, you see we have cows that can be rented. Do you want to rent them?" Yu Yan said with a smile.

Jia Dongxu rubbed his head and said, "Let's talk about whether to rent it or not later. I'll go back to the factory today and see if I can get the money."

"I'm going to discuss the pig farm with my second uncle first. I won't say hello to you when I get back."
