Reborn in Changbai Mountain, I rely on my divine eyes to dig ginseng and hunt

Liu Xia Lian was not surprised by her cousin's decision. It was expected. With elderly parents and young children to take care of, it takes courage to leave home.

"Brother Hong, these are two different things. You should go home for the New Year, and come back after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. The elderly and children are waiting for you."

"Okay then, I'll go back tonight and discuss it with your sister-in-law and then decide."

"Ok."

In the evening, Lijiatun.

The geese at the goose farm had their fill and finally calmed down. They hid in the warm shed and lay down to take a nap.

Liu Fuhong drove a light truck back from the forest farm this evening and brought back three thousand kilograms of rice bran. This amount is not enough for the geese to eat for a week.

Liu Fuhong and his man walked around the goose farm with a hunting rifle and found no danger, so they returned to the house with peace of mind.

My daughter-in-law is preparing the meal. This kind of food is unimaginable in my hometown, but here you can eat whatever you want, such as fish head stewed with vermicelli and sweet white rice.

Liu Fuhong pulled a bench and sat down, then said to his wife: "Xia Lian came to see me today and asked me if I would go home for the New Year. I said we would quit our job and go home next summer, so we won't go back for the New Year."

The wife was a little worried: "We make a lot of money here, eat well, and drink well, but will it be possible when we go back?"

"I've been thinking a lot recently. Sister Xia Lian started from scratch and built such a big business by digging ginseng and picking mushrooms in just over a year. Let's go back to our hometown and start a business. We are both in our thirties. If we don't do it now, we will get old."

"Old?" The wife was stunned, and touched her cheek. She was indeed old. Although she often put on the vanishing cream bought from the supply and marketing cooperative for a few yuan a bag, it still couldn't withstand the vicissitudes of time.

"Master, you should think about it carefully. I am a woman with little experience. What are you going to do when we go back next summer? Honeysuckle, Salvia miltiorrhiza, and Xia Lian are all in the hands of Uncle Wu. I won't give them to you."

"Of course. First of all, we sent ten female donkeys some time ago, two of which are from our family. We don't have to worry about pulling carts and plowing the land. We can give birth to a mule every year. Our big livestock are very expensive, and a young mule can be sold for fifteen or sixteen thousand yuan. We don't have to worry about daily expenses. The problem is the sales of our geese. The sales are not as wide as here. We should follow Zhao Daxi's way, raise sows, sell piglets, collect big pigs, cooperate with the meat processing factory, and comply with the government's strategy."

Because with the development of society and the improvement of economy, people's consumption of pork has greatly increased, while backward pig farming technology has restricted the development of pig farming.

The wife pondered for a while and said, "Raising pigs is definitely better than raising geese. At least pigs are not so noisy. But during the training, I heard from Supervisor Guilan that raising pigs requires science and technology. It would be very risky for us to learn how to raise pigs without knowing anything. After all, we need to raise at least dozens of sows, not just a few sows."

Liu Fuhong nodded: "Technology is not a problem. When you come back next year, I will tell my sister to transfer you to the pig farm to learn something. I have been with Xia Lian for so long, and I have learned something from her. I am not afraid of anything. As long as you dare to do something, you are halfway to success. Let's go home for the New Year tomorrow."

"Okay, let's go home for the New Year." The daughter-in-law suddenly thought of her children in her hometown and her father and brothers in her mother's family.

Missing someone is like holding your urine. If you can’t see the toilet, you can hold on for a while, but if you see it, you have to do it immediately.

The couple counted their money until midnight. The wages, the money from collecting mountain products, the money from Liu Fuhong's following Liu Xialian to dig ginseng and fight monsters, all added up to 9,860 yuan. In fact, the two of them had never spent much. When Liu Xialian got married some time ago, she gave 500 yuan to her father, remitted a few hundred yuan to her children, and gave gifts of dozens of yuan when relatives got married. They usually had meals and drinks provided, and they just bought two leather pants and leather jackets. After all, the weather in Northeast China is really hard to survive without a few furs.

The wife looked at the pile of money and was worried: "What should I do with so much money? It's so worrying. The handling fee for sending the remittance slip back is more than 90 yuan, and I'm afraid I'll encounter thieves if I take it back."

"Is there any need to think about this? When Fourth Uncle was at the police station at the railway station, he caught hundreds of thieves. There was also a thief called the Thief King, who had dozens of disciples and were very good at stealing money. I will go to find Xia Lian tomorrow morning. You tell Aunt to hand over the work at the goose farm. Then we will take our luggage and go to the county town to remit money and take the train home."

"Well, it's getting late, let's go to bed."

Nothing happened that night. Liu Fuhong got up early the next morning and drove to the kimchi factory to hand over his work. All matters concerning the fleet were handed over to the deputy team leader Li Dazhuang. This guy was about 27 or 28 years old and from Mang Village. He had good driving skills and was born to be a driver. He used to drive a horse-drawn carriage, but later he learned to drive from Liu Daqiang. After only a few months, he could drive tractors, light trucks and large trucks.

"During this period, the transportation volume is very small, only seafood, grain, feed, pickles, etc. that are not afraid of freezing."

"Okay, captain, don't worry, we will make sure the transportation is done well. When we are not busy, we will go to the assembly line to help."

Liu Xia Lian had just finished inspecting the warehouse. There were enough pickles and kimchi in the warehouse to fill fifty carloads. They could be shipped to the Big Bear Country as soon as the temperature got a little higher after the New Year. The ten canning factories in the provincial capital had also produced more than a hundred carloads of the goods. Once the goods arrived, the remaining two planes would arrive. Once the two planes arrived, her profits would be secure.

"Sister Xia Lian, I have made up my mind. We will go back home today to celebrate the New Year." Liu Fuhong came over and said to Liu Xia Lian.

"So fast, what's going on?"

"I hadn't thought about going home yet, but when I went back yesterday and told your sister-in-law about it, she missed both home and her children."

"Okay, no problem. There's not a lot of work these days, so we can make do with the turnover. Let's drive a jeep back and bring some local specialties back to our family."

Liu Fuhong waved his hands repeatedly: "It's too painful. It will take two or three days to drive in this cold weather. If it snows heavily, we won't be able to leave. It will be so frustrating. Let's buy a hard sleeper ticket and sleep comfortably until we reach Teng County. How nice it would be."

"Okay, I'll go prepare some holiday gifts for you. I'll ask Xiao Dong to book a sleeper ticket for you from the provincial capital."

"Okay, that's great. I was just worried that it would be hard to buy a sleeper ticket."

In fact, the wave of migrant workers had not yet emerged in those days, and there was no such thing as the Spring Festival travel rush. It’s just that there were relatively few trains in operation, and most of the lines were still real trains, spewing thick smoke and speeding on the railway.

Liu Xia Lian took four gift boxes, one box each for the wild vegetables that are not available in Shandong, such as prickly ash, hazel mushrooms, pine mushrooms, and American ginseng.

In the afternoon, they completed the work handover, and Liu Xia Lian drove them to the county town.
