Niu male

Chapter 152

After the matter of Luo Jingliang was over, Luo Meng thought, the weather this year is too dry, he needs to build the reservoir as soon as possible, even if it is not used this year, who knows if it will be used next year or the next year, he is such an idiot Wangzhuang has been contracted for 70 years, and it will not be used this time, and it will be used sooner or later.

However, Niuwangzhuang is still dominated by sloping land after all, and it is rare to find a few pieces of flat land. Whether this reservoir can be repaired, and how to repair it, you have to ask Zheng Bolun first.

"It can be repaired." Zheng Bolun's answer was concise.

"Then what are we going to do?" Romon asked him.

"It was excavated on the mountainside a little above the bayberry grove. The reservoir should be built longer and narrower, and built according to the shape of the mountain. Stones should be piled up around the reservoir to avoid collapse after a long time. If it is repaired well, it will be built with It won’t be a problem for hundreds of years.” Zheng Bolun’s eyes sparkled when he said this.

"That will cost a lot of money." Romon sighed, and it is estimated that the deal on rose seedlings that was agreed before will be carried out soon. It is not a small sum, plus this For the cost of the reservoir, the money on hand might not be enough for Romon.

"If you don't lay stones, you can only dig in low places, which is not convenient for irrigation, and secondly, it will be more dangerous in the event of prolonged rainfall." Although the foot of the mountain is better than the mountainside, it is still a slope after all. Digging a reservoir is inherently dangerous.

"I see, let me think again."

Luo Meng still believed in Zheng Bolun's ability. The cowshed built by the city people under his leadership was very sturdy and easy to use. After the cowshed was repaired, the quality of life of the buffaloes in Niuwangzhuang improved by more than one point. grade.

Under the walls around the cowshed, the area originally reserved for planting flowers and plants has been planted by Luo Meng with bergamot, loofah, bitter gourd and other crops, not only for viewing, but also for picking fruits when the season comes, which is more suitable Lao Zhou's aesthetics and values.

In fact, Luo Meng didn't hesitate for a long time. It's already summer now, and the crops in the field are about to mature one after another. Let alone the vegetables, the corn and soybeans will be harvested after a while. In autumn, his Niuwangzhuang will have With a large amount of income, as long as there are no accidents, he should not be unable to make ends meet.

In order to make more money, Romon has recently asked people to go up the mountain to peel tender corn and sell it. This year, in addition to the most common, highest-yielding and most affordable ordinary corn, Romon also planted some sweet corn. These corns brought them In this store, one sells for three yuan. Everyone in the town thinks it is expensive and everyone buys it. There is no way, it is really delicious.

What made Romon even more relieved was that the watermelons on his mountain were about to ripen. With the experience of last year, he would know what to plant this spring. For example, there must be many kinds of watermelons. Jin, if you sell it casually, it will be dozens of yuan more, and the market is not bad, and the money comes quickly.

And this spring, he also planted the watermelons on the mountain in several batches. When the time comes, these batches of watermelons will mature one after another, which will greatly lengthen the harvest period. Originally, Romon wanted to plant the watermelons earlier, but unfortunately the climate on their side does not allow it. The season has not arrived, and the melon seedlings are planted in the ground, and it is difficult to survive.

In the next year or two, Romon plans to choose a better batch of seeds, and try to see if he can mention the ripening time of the watermelon earlier, preferably before the Dragon Boat Festival.

Now that he decided to build the reservoir, he had to start recruiting people earlier. Luo Meng thought that summer jobs would be good, so he posted a job recruitment post on Tongcheng Forum, the content is as follows.

Niuwangzhuang plans to build a reservoir, and is now recruiting 200 summer workers. Teachers and students are welcome to sign up.

Requirements: 1. Over 2 years old (this time our labor intensity is relatively high, so children should not come here). [-]. Men (the reason is the same as the previous one).

Salary: 1. The salary is 1800 yuan per month. If you work for two months, you will get an additional 500 yuan bonus. If you work for less than one month, you will be calculated as 50 yuan per day. 2. Don't think the salary is low, our food and dormitory are quite good.

Remarks: Those who come to apply for the job, if they are physically unable to keep up, can be arranged to work in other positions later.

Unsurprisingly, Luo Meng's recruitment post was quickly popularized by enthusiastic forum friends.

"The salary of [-] yuan to build a reservoir in this hot summer is really a scam!"

"This is going to be skinned again!"

"It's true that the food is good! Hahahaha!"

"Old Zhou! Will you kill the pig this time? If you want to kill the pig, I will go."

"If I can eat a few more pieces of pork from the old Zhou's family, I will admit to being skinned."

"This time, we are building a reservoir, so one layer may not be enough."

"I'll admit it even if I pick up a few more layers."

"Actually, even if you don't kill pigs, the food at Niuwangzhuang is pretty good. If only I had summer vacation."

"Unless you're a student, or a teacher."

"Is the principal okay?"

"Is the school cafeteria okay?"

"Can the school watch the gate?"

"It's definitely not good to watch the gate. In our school, that position is open all year round."

"Then what, the principal is definitely out of luck. Let's try it in the school cafeteria tomorrow, so we can spend a few months of vacation at least."

"I heard it was unpaid leave."

"Can't you still earn money from Lao Zhou?"

"Don't, brother, why do you do this just for one bite!"

Romon waited online for a long time. Seeing that these guys were talking nonsense, he couldn't help shouting again: "Is anyone here?"

"Are you going to kill the pig or not?" the foodies were very persistent.

"Kill me, when the time comes, you guys will all run away after eating a meal of slaughtering pigs. Who can I ask for reason?" Can Romon fall for their tricks?

There's no way, there's no rush to recruit a job. Romon already has experience. Back then, he posted a job recruitment post and a rental post on this forum, both of which were of the slow-fire type. In their forum, there was only content about eating. , everyone's response will be faster.

Luo Meng's recruitment has not progressed yet, but Xiao Shulin received a call for help from Wang Xiangyang.

This guy is also quite outrageous. He conceived with his girlfriend before marriage, because the woman's parents are more conservative. After the young couple discussed it, they decided not to tell the family about the pregnancy. After getting the license and drinking, the old people can go there if they want to beat or scold, anyway, it won't delay the business anyway.

As a result, I didn't hide it.The father-in-law and the mother-in-law knew it all, and the old couple jumped their feet in anger. Although the folk customs of Wang Xiangyang's village were tough, they were also conservative. Among other things, Wang Xiangyang couldn't even pass his own grandfather's test. They escorted him to the woman's house to make amends.

No, I called Xiao Shulin to ask for help, and said: "Boss, if you can help me pass this test, we will be the boss of the company in the future."

How else could Xiao Shulin help him?After discussing with Luo Meng, the two of them went down to the reservoir to catch some river clams and small river prawns. After thinking about it, they fished some loaches from the rice fields here, and picked a small basket of good-looking bayberries from the mountain. , I even caught a little rooster, and planned to bring it to Wang Xiangyang tomorrow. If the old couple had a good time eating, they might be able to hold their hands high.

If Wang Xiangyang can't pass the test smoothly this time, it's really hard to say whether he will be interested in going to work in the future. If the cadres he cultivated with great difficulty fail, Xiao Shulin will not know whether he can be as happy as he is now, so it has a lot to do with it. .

This morning, Luo Meng and Xiao Shulin carried a truckload of goods to the town to sell as usual. Originally, for the convenience of selling vegetables, Xiao Shulin planned to drive a truck from the company, but Aunt Ayun said that her small truck It is rusty even if it is left alone, let them drive it for use.

Aunt Ayun's car was really rusty. After the three of them drove to the blacksmith shop, they never drove the car again. It was left in the yard all the time, and went to the street to buy groceries or something. , It is not so exaggerated to drive a truck.

Later, when he married Boss Xiao and wanted to move to the town, the car could no longer be driven. Xiao Shulin asked Xiao Shulin to help him repair it, and it has been kept in the carport of Xiao Shulin's company since then.Now she asked Xiao Shulin and the others to use it, and Xiao Shulin was not too polite. His father said that sometimes being too polite would make you look alien.

"Romeng, where are the soybeans?" Arriving in front of their store, Luomeng and Xiao Shulin had just stopped their car to unload, when a large group of people immediately surrounded them, several of them clamoring for soybeans.

Recently, people in Buffalo Town eat pork knuckles and roasted soybeans. Chop the pigs knuckles into small pieces and fry them in a hot pan with a few slices of ginger and half a catty of soybeans until fragrant. Then add water and cook slowly to thoroughly cook the pork and soybeans. The soup is transparent, and the soup is thick. When eating, just pour a small spoonful of meat, beans and soup on top of the white rice. It is a beauty.

The most wonderful thing is that it can still be stored. If you can’t finish eating that day, put it in the refrigerator. If you want to eat it tomorrow, it will be more delicious.This is what left the housewives in the town. As long as they have this dish and order some green vegetables and tofu, the whole family can still eat deliciously.

But for this soybean, it's best to buy it from Luo Meng's store. Although half a catty costs five yuan, the price is indeed a bit expensive, but it can improve the taste. It is soft and sweet when cooked, and it is delicious and can be eaten with rice.As for the pig's trotters, it would be even better if they could be bought from Dawan Village, but this one is really hard to find, and it would be good to buy it from the vegetable market in the town.

"Hey, Rang Rang, Rang Rang, let's move our things in first." Boss Xiao was wearing the dark blue apron made for him by Aunt Ayun, ready to face this day's battle in high spirits.

"Let's sell it outside, it's spacious outside." The men and women who bought vegetables gathered around the baskets and refused to move the floor, or else they bought things at this moment, and there will be crowds later.

"That's not going to work, the streets are blocked by us." Boss Xiao said, carrying a basket with both hands, and walked into the shop, and those people had no choice but to follow inside.

During the recent period, every day before Romon's and his cars arrived, there were many cars parked on the streets near them, most of which were driven by people who came to buy vegetables from Yongqing. Congestion, the road is already narrow, if you want to put the vegetable baskets outside to sell, it will be completely blocked.

"Boss! Boss! Where are my things?" Wang Xiangyang came over when the store was bustling.

"Yo, why are you here now?" Xiao Shulin gave an old lady some change, then dragged out a basket from the shelf next to it, thought for a while, and grabbed a few long and fat loofahs from the shelf. The basket was crossed, and then it was handed to Wang Xiangyang.

"Thank you, boss!" Wang Xiangyang said thanks and was about to leave.

"Oh! Small river prawns!" Even if Xiao Shulin did the cover, he still couldn't stop those sharp-eyed people. When he brought this basket in from the car just now, he didn't notice it because he stacked a vegetable basket on it. When this man shouted, many people in the store all looked at Wang Xiangyang in unison.

"Boss! I'm sorry! I'm leaving first!" Seeing that something was wrong, Wang Xiangyang ran with his basket in his arms, ran to the side of the road, put the basket into the truck, quickly got into the driver's seat, stepped on the gas pedal, The car disappeared in a flash of smoke.

"Why are you running, man!"

"Can we still go up and grab it? Really!"

"Hey, there's a bucket of small river prawns!"

"What else is in the basket?"

"I don't know, I can't see it."

"Ever since I ate their small river prawns on the day of the Dragon Boat Festival, our girl has been talking about it all day long."

"Let's not talk about children, adults are greedy, the taste is sweet and sweet."

Anyway, the small river prawns have already been driven away, and they have no chance to share a half a catty. Next, they have to buy vegetables, and when they go to Xiao Shulin to pay, some people I couldn't help but talk to him.

"Silve, do you think your shrimp is still for sale?"

"I'll sell it after another month of breeding." Xiao Shulin and Luo Meng had calculated before that if the small river prawns were raised in the reservoir for another month and then caught and sold, they could make a lot of money.

"You see it's going to be summer vacation, and my son will be back the day after tomorrow."

"Isn't summer vacation still two months away, what's the hurry?" Xiao Shulin lit a cigarette for himself, pretending to be a refrain from oil and salt, and planned to carry it to the end.

"Woods, my man will go out tomorrow, and he will go back to the south for two or three months."

"Tell him that there will be shrimps to eat when you come back." Xiao Shulin was holding a cigarette while looking for money while dealing with these soft and hard bubbles, steadily.

"Alas..." When it was an old man's turn, he first handed Xiao Shulin a 100 yuan bill, then sighed and said, "I'm already this age, and I don't know how many days I have left to live." Yes, I just want to eat shrimp again."

Xiao Shulin was looking down for change. Hearing what he said, he couldn't help but twitched the corner of his mouth. The cigarette wasn't in his mouth, and he rolled a few somersaults and fell to the ground. Xiao Shulin habitually lifted his foot and crushed him: " Uncle, just for a few shrimps, why don’t we do this?”
