Love in the Siheyuan: Starting from Jia Dongxu

Chapter 165: 1 Jin of Vegetables per Person

"We still have a lot of haystacks we brought with us. Now the cows are lying down. We will use the hay to cover the carriage and then cover the cows with the haystacks to keep out the cold at night."

Hu Mingcheng thought for a while and said, it seems that Hu Mingcheng also knows something about raising cattle.

"Old Hu, if you had thought of this idea earlier, it would be great. Otherwise, even if one cow is saved, it would be a lot of money!" Jia Dongxu quickly asked Hu Mingcheng to stop the car, and then realized that he was a little impulsive, and said quickly, "Old Hu, I'm sorry, I was a little anxious, don't mind it."

Hu Mingcheng waved his hand. This young minister was a good man. He was worried about a few cows. He was not the kind of person who just wanted to go through the motions. A live cow was very valuable these days.

So he tried to test it out, "Minister Jia, just these cows and mutton are worth 1 yuan. This trip is totally worth it."

"Yes, it's worth it. This trip of meat is worth it. The factory can have meat for several months." Jia Dongxu said with a smile, "But these live cattle are even more worthwhile. Our factory is currently cooperating with several villages, and they are in urgent need of livestock. This can save a lot of manpower!"

After listening to Jia Dongxu's words, Hu Mingcheng realized that he had misunderstood. He had simply thought that Minister Jia was here to make money, but he didn't expect that he was considering the factory. This was much better than simple gilding, and he was really doing practical things for the factory.

Motioning the team to park slowly, Hu Mingcheng said, "The daytime temperature here is already quite high now, so we don't need to rush. Just drive slowly so that the cattle can recover."

"Okay, let's start!" Jia Dongxu got out of the car and started moving the haystack.

Hu Mingcheng quickly arranged for people to spread the haystack under the truck and then cover the cow with the haystack.

"Well, these cows look much better." Jia Dongxu said after he finished his work.

"It's a pity about these dead cows." Jia Dongxu looked at the mutton and dead cows in the third truck with heartache.

These cows were frozen on the grassland and are still hard, so there is no need to worry about the meat going bad.

"Captain Hu, take out a sheep and roast it for everyone to eat. We have been driving it for the past few days, so we can drive it slowly for the next two days!"

"Okay, it's getting dark now. Let's rest for a night after eating and continue our journey tomorrow." Hu Mingcheng smiled and called on his men to collect wood, then cut branches, cut mutton, skewer them and roast them.

After it is cooked, sprinkle some salt on it and it tastes quite good.

A few people built a few fires and sat around them roasting meat.

Jia Dongxu was very happy when he heard the cows on the truck mooing again.

"Captain Hu, the cow seems to have recovered a lot!"

"Yes, Minister Jia, the weather is warm now, and the cows are feeling comfortable. I'm sure they'll be full of energy again after tonight."

"We don't have to worry about the living cows, but we have to pay attention to the meat and the dead cows."

"We have to find a way to prevent the meat from going bad."

Jia Dongxu thought for a moment and said, "Captain Hu, can we return to the city in two days?"

"I'll try to speed up. Now that the weather is warmer, the cows should be able to handle it." Hu Mingcheng said after thinking for a while.

"Okay, then we'll have two days. Let's go to Changping Village first and put the live cattle down."

Jia Dongxu was worried that after these cows entered the factory, they would not be able to reach the village. Anyway, he had these 10 dead cows and half a truck of mutton, so he could already deliver the task.

The value of the output has far exceeded 500 yuan.

The few of them agreed to set out at daybreak, and arrive directly in Huailai at night. Without resting, they drove towards Changping while the road was still visible, and stopped only when they could no longer see the road.

"Minister Jia will arrive in Changping tomorrow morning, and we have saved two days compared to the time we came here."

Hu Mingcheng smiled and said that after two weeks of work, he had finally completed the task smoothly. He would get a lot of wages and could carry a sheep home. It was a wonderful thought.

"Team Leader Hu, I'm afraid we'll have to arrange a driver to run between Changping and the factory every day. Changping supplies a lot of vegetables to the factory every day!" Jia Dongxu smiled.

"Oh, is there a place specifically for growing vegetables in Changping?" Hu Mingcheng asked in confusion.

"Yes, the vegetables have started to be produced. If it can be delayed for ten or twenty days, it can produce more than 1 kilograms!" Jia Xu said while gesturing.

"More than 1 kilograms! No way, Minister Jia, aren't there no vegetables in winter? How come there are so many vegetables?" Hu Mingcheng was puzzled, "Could they be cabbages?"

"I didn't have time to plant cabbage this year, but I will plant cabbage next year." Jia Dongxu said that cabbage has a high yield and is durable in storage, so he can plant some, but the main thing is to grow other vegetables in the greenhouse to enrich the dishes.

"So the factory will have fresh vegetables to eat every day in the winter? The village is so wealthy that they use so much land to build so many greenhouses." Hu Mingcheng said with a smile, "We will have a good life this winter."

Jia Xu paused, smiled, and said, "Captain Hu, your car team is often out on the road, right? In winter, as long as you are out on the road, you can't eat vegetables very often."

"Tomorrow, I will give each of you 50 kilograms of vegetables, and you can take them home to eat."

"Really, Minister Jia?"

Hu Mingcheng said happily, "Minister Jia, this must cost a lot of money, right? Isn't this a big expense for you?"

"Haha, it's not expensive, not at all! I'm an advocate of building greenhouses. They were jointly built by the factory and the village, and the factory paid to buy back the vegetables grown in the greenhouses."

"No way, Minister Jia, how old are you? You have done such a big thing!" Hu Mingcheng was stunned. His eldest son was not much younger than Minister Jia, but he looked like a fool.

Minister Jia is so capable that he has done such a great thing for the factory.

No wonder he could become deputy minister, it seems he really has some abilities.

"Haha, your team of drivers have been following me to the grassland for so many days and have worked hard without complaint. I don't have any other rewards for you, so I can only give you these rewards."

Jia Xu said with a smile, watching Hu Mingcheng stand up and announce the rewards for the four people who delivered the food.

Getting a sheep was already a pleasant surprise, but I didn’t expect that each person would also get 50 kilograms of vegetables.

I can’t believe it! The new deputy minister is so generous.

Jia Dongxu's reward made everyone very excited. Vegetables are very expensive now, and they will have vegetables to eat at home in the next few days.

Everyone was eager to go home quickly, pick up the 50 kilograms of vegetables and send them home.

Some even suggested driving back slowly at night.

Hu Mingcheng cursed at the man, saying that he was an experienced driver but why didn't he pay attention to safety, and scolded him.
