Start being a Shennong today

After breakfast, the people of Nantian Village realized that something was wrong. The people of Taoyuan Village didn't sell vegetables in the village well, so they came to our village anyway.Not only people from Taoyuan Village, but also many tourists who went to Taoyuan Village to buy vegetables, heard that they wanted to buy lanterns, so they followed them to Nantian Village.

Many of these people have never been to Nantian Village. As soon as they entered the village, they were attracted by all kinds of bamboo weaving on the roadside.During these days, the people of Nantian Village have been constantly improving themselves, and the types of bamboo weaving have become more and more abundant, but there are no lanterns on the stalls. So where do so many people from Taoyuan Village go to buy them?

Two little girls who came to play from the city originally wanted to visit Taoyuan Village, but somehow followed others to Nantian Village.I was patronizing to look at the bamboo woven products, only to find that the big team that came to buy lanterns had disappeared. The eldest sister who looked at the stall where I stopped looked amiable and asked a question.

"To buy lanterns, it has to be old man Tian Siqi Tian's house. His craftsmanship is amazing. It's a pity that he is not at home. He and Aunt Tian went to play with the eldest daughter. If you want to find someone to make lanterns, you have to go to another house." When buying a lantern, the elder sister thought of Tao Ran's grandfather Tian Siqi, so she told the little girl.

"Sister, why don't you stalls sell lanterns?" The two little girls were very curious. There were many kinds of things on the stalls along the way, but there were no lanterns.

"In the past, no one came to our village. It was after Taoyuan Village started a vegetable selling business and brought customers to buy bamboo baskets that it gradually became lively. But no one really thought of selling lanterns. The main reason is that no one bought them. If no one buys, no one will make it. With so many people buying from you today, it is estimated that some of you will start making lanterns by now.” The eldest sister does not understand the relationship between supply and demand, and she also knows that only when someone buys, someone will sell.

"Then elder sister, do you know how to make lanterns at home?" I feel that this elder sister is very enthusiastic, and the two little girls want to buy from this elder sister.

"By the way, my children are all in elementary school. Don't call me big sister. You little girls are so polite. The one in my family can make simple lanterns, but he is not at home today. I don't know if you want to buy them or go. Let's take a look elsewhere."

The little girls don't understand these things, so ask her to help introduce them.

"Old man Tian is the best at making lanterns in our village, but it's a pity he's not here. There are two other old men in the village who are better at making lanterns. One is in the south of the village. The road goes straight to the end, the third uncle's house with two sweet-scented osmanthus trees at the door."

The eldest sister picked up the water glass next to her to moisten her throat, and then said: "However, the craftsmanship of these two families is well known, and everyone in Taoyuan Village knows that many people must have come to the door. If you want to buy their lanterns, you may have to wait for a long time." God. If you don’t buy a particularly good one, just wait a while, there will definitely be someone selling simple bamboo lanterns at other stalls, and they can make them in a while.”

Hearing the elder sister's suggestion, the two young girls thanked them first, then discussed and decided to go to the two with the best craftsmanship first.Don't say whether to buy or not, it's hard to come here to satisfy your curiosity.

Not long after walking south, I saw the house full of bamboos that the elder sister said, and the overall simple and quiet style was very conspicuous.It's just that the people coming and going in front of the door ruined the scenery. The two little girls walked towards the door hand in hand.

As soon as I entered the door, I saw an old man in the yard full of wood and bamboo, seriously playing with the bamboo sticks in his hand, and no one in the yard dared to make a sound to disturb him.Just watching quietly, the skeleton of the lantern was quickly made by the old man's dexterous hands, and the shape seemed to be a hexagonal palace lantern.

Tian Qiye turned back, picked up the painted rice paper from the table behind him, and quickly pasted it on the skeleton, then fixed it firmly, and finally added the handle of the lantern, and it was completed.

Seeing that the six sides of the lantern were flowers painted in ink, the two little girls came to their senses and realized that they were quietly watching others finish making kites.But this kite is really pretty, and the two quickly decided to buy a lantern to go home. Before they could inquire about the price, they heard someone whispering next to them: "Who painted this painting?"

"Hey, there are a few people in Nantian Village who can paint ink and wash paintings. Old Man Li, who Mr. Tian Qi went to call out, asked him to help him paint and pay him per sheet. You see, he is sitting in the room." This man came very quickly Early, know clearly.Following the direction of the man's finger, you can see a thin old man holding an ink pen in the room, not knowing what to draw.

At this moment, a teenage boy ran out and erected a large board in the yard with a guide for making lanterns written on it.It turns out that Tian Qiye only makes two kinds of lanterns. One is bamboo lanterns, and only 30 lanterns are made every day. You can specify the pattern and shape of the lanterns. You can pick them up on the day, and each only costs [-] yuan.

Tian Qiye made all kinds of lanterns as samples one after another, including hexagonal, oval, cubic, and all kinds of lanterns, all of which were placed on the table next to the wooden board.The onlookers wanted to get them all.

There is also a wood-carved lantern, which takes time to carve.So only ten pieces are made a week, and it takes a week to pick them up, 80 yuan a piece, and half of the deposit needs to be paid first.Due to lack of time today, Tian Qiye did not temporarily make wood-carved lanterns. He took out the old lanterns he made before, cleaned them and put them on display.

This old lantern was similar to the one that Tao Ran brought out last night, and some children from Taoyuan Village held their parents' hands and wanted to buy it.But he looked at the bamboo lanterns hesitantly, and I really want these too.

Everyone else was thinking about it, but the two little girls from the city didn't hesitate, and rushed to grab a place to buy it.They also met people selling lanterns in the city, and they also browsed on their mobile phones, but they were really not as good as Tian Qiye's, and they were all handmade by craftsmen.

The only thing that needs to be considered is how many. Thinking that it would be inconvenient to take too many in the car, the two finally chose the Hexagon Palace Lantern.When it comes to the Lantern Festival, wearing beautiful clothes and carrying hexagonal palace lanterns will definitely make the little sisters envious.

After telling the little boy the pattern he wanted, the little boy ran into the house to let the old man in the house paint.The long-haired girl looked at the wooden lantern reluctantly, bit her lip lightly, and asked her good sister for support: "Actually, it's not too much trouble to come back next week, and I can buy some Taoyuan vegetables to go home, don't you think?" ?”

The short-haired girl next to her understood what she meant, and to be honest, she also wanted to buy it.Just as the two continued to hesitate, someone came over and ordered a wooden lantern.Seeing that there were not many places for ten, the two felt a sense of crisis, looked at each other, made a decision, and hurriedly placed an order.

Tao Ran still didn't know anything about the bustle of Nantian Village.He was called over by the village chief early this morning, and Tao Jiaxing, who came with the vegetable truck of Taoyuan Supermarket, was called over with him.

Speaking of which, the lights in the office of the village committee were turned on for most of the night yesterday, and the village chief is still worrying about the village in his old age.But when the village gets better and better after the busy work, he would rather worry about it.

But there are some things that the village cadres are not particularly clear about. No one in the whole village can compare with Tao Jiaxing in terms of understanding of market vegetable prices.No, Tao Jiaxing was called by the village head to ask about the current vegetable prices in the market, and to help out with a suggestion.

As for Tao Ran, now Tao Ran's family will be involved in major and minor matters related to Shennongquan in the village, but Tao Shengwen despises it being too troublesome and pushes Tao Ran out every time.However, Tao Ran's mind is relatively flexible, and he can think of some things that others have not noticed.

Tao Ran has been busy all morning today, just to set up a notification group for Taoyuan Village, so that the villagers can quickly let the villagers know if there is anything in the village that needs to be notified.The reason why it took so much time is also because there are families with only elderly people at home.These old people are good at growing vegetables, and they can’t use mobile phones. For those who really can’t learn, or only have elderly phones, they can only ask their neighbors to help notify them.

When the principal of the No. [-] Middle School came over at noon, he was called by the village head to have a light meal before negotiating the price.The principal, who was also overwhelmed by the delicious food, felt that buying Taoyuan vegetables could be eaten in the cafeteria in the future, and it was great that he didn't have to go to Taoyuan supermarket every day to grab them.

After discussing with each other, they decided to supply the No. [-] Middle School with [-]% off the price of vegetables in Taoyuan Supermarket, which is only a little higher than the price of vegetables in the market. Everyone is very satisfied with the result.

The result was notified directly through the group, and after the village chief sent out the price, it was approved by all.Taoyuan Village is a magical village. Every household is a close relative and friend. All the cadres in the village are elected by the villagers spontaneously and have the full trust of the villagers.

After confirming the price, the principal of No. [-] Middle School took out the statistics of the daily vegetables needed in the school cafeteria.Post the needs of various vegetables in the group, and everyone will know how much vegetables to set aside after seeing them, and send them to the canteen of No. [-] Middle School every morning when the school starts.

After finishing these tasks, Tao Ran left the village committee and walked home. On the way, he passed under the Peach King Tree, only to notice that there were a lot fewer people in the village today.Usually people in the village sit here, and today is Saturday, so there should be many tourists.

Seeing his parents sitting there chatting, Tao Ran approached and picked up a piece of snowflake crisps and asked, "Dad, Mom, why are there not many people today? Where did everyone go?"

Tian Yuxia raised her head and glanced at him. Tao Ran felt that the look in her eyes was a bit strange, when she heard her mother reply, "You still have the nerve to ask, but it's not all because of you. Everyone took their children to Nantian Village to find someone to make lanterns." Now, you go to the road to Nantian Village and have a look, there are many people on the road."

It was only then that Tao Ran realized how much trouble the lantern he took out yesterday had caused.After he said a few words with his parents, he quickened his pace and walked towards home.Looking back, Li Tingzhou was really researching with a strawberry in his arms.

Tao's father and Tian's mother were completely conquered by Li Tingzhou's craftsmanship, and let him control the kitchen. Li Tingzhou even bought some kitchen supplies when he had nothing to do. Today, he bought a new juicer and is now squeezing strawberry juice.

Seeing the neatly arranged strawberry juice on the table, Tao Ran couldn't help but picked up a glass and drank it. He wanted to gulp it down, but after tasting the taste, he decided to taste it slowly.After drinking, Tao Ran looked at the newly bought juicer, and decided to go to Nantian Village with the strawberries and the juicer.

Tao Ran started the electric tricycle at home, and Li Tingzhou wanted to sit in the front seat too, but the two of them sat in a narrow space, and their arms would touch each other.Tao Ran drove Li Tingzhou to the back compartment just like that holding the strawberry bamboo basket. The electric car was not his, and the strawberries were easy to be squeezed and needed to be protected.

Driving in the direction of Nantian Village, the road is very smooth, and Li Tingzhou didn't feel bumpy when he was sitting on the back.I met many Taoyuan villagers on the road, and many children were happily jumping up and down with lanterns.
