This spring, Wangjia Village is extremely lively and can be called a tourist destination, with many people coming to visit.
What is different from last year is that this time there are not only team leaders but also members.
They all came for the same purpose, which was to hatch chicks.
Qian Minghua and Wang Shouquan were so busy just handling the reception that they were exhausted.
The leaders of the commune also came to help them.
After all, Wangjia Village was able to retain the title of the county's advanced production team, which also brought a lot of honor to the commune.
So many people came here, besides to inspect, they also came to learn how to raise chickens.
Everyone was terrified of the days in the past few years. So when the county magistrate said he wanted to vigorously develop chicken farms, everyone wanted to come and inspect it.
However, the prestige of the brigade cadres has declined a lot in recent years, so the production team selected many members to follow.
With so many people coming, accommodation is the biggest problem.
After a meeting of brigade cadres, they arranged for these people to live in the homes of the members.
After about three days of investigation, the brigade cadres ordered the chicks one after another.
Last year they hatched about 100,000 chicks for other production teams, and this year the number increased by a hundred times.
Even Qian Shulan didn't expect such an outcome.
She was happy but also a little worried because she didn't have that many gold coins at the moment.
Finally she found Director Ma.
Unlike other families, Qian Shulan's family didn't have anyone arranged to stay at home, because her place was too small, with only one room for people to live in, and two beds were placed in it. There was no room to move.
Qian Shulan invited Director Ma and cooked a table of dishes herself.
Director Ma looked at her and felt a little nervous. He couldn't help shrinking his neck and said, "Aunt Qian, your request is not difficult, right?"
Qian Shulan patted his shoulder and said, "Don't worry. It's a little difficult for me, but it's easy for you."
Upon hearing this, Director Ma was immediately relieved. He sat down on the table, looked left and right, and asked, "Where is your little granddaughter?"
Qian Shulan waved her hand. "We are talking about something so important, how can we let a child hear us? Children are not careful with their mouths, so we should not let her know about such a dangerous thing."
Danger? Director Ma immediately put down the chopsticks he was holding, "Aunt Qian, why don't you tell me first? I can't eat unless you tell me."
Seeing his terrified look, Qian Shulan stopped arguing and said, "I'm very curious, so I want to ask you for a favor. Can you let me take a look at the antiques you dug out before shipping them to the big city?"
Director Ma was stunned for a moment, his brows knitted together, and he subconsciously lowered his voice, "Aunt Qian, you are not thinking?"
Qian Shulan didn't quite understand what he meant, "?"
Director Ma slapped his thigh, "It's a replacement! It's so real!"
Qian Shulan laughed out loud, "You're so funny! If I had that ability, I'd still be an old country lady."
Director Ma was confused, "Why do you want to read those?"
"Why don't you tell me this? Keep it as a family heirloom. I'm thinking if I have the chance in the future, I can get more. But it's hard to tell whether something like this is real or not. I think I should keep my eyes open first. What I dug out from the ground should be real, right?"
Director Ma straightened his chest and said, "Of course! Only an unfilial son would give a fake item to his biological father."
As for the tomb robbers, they would probably just steal everything and wouldn't take a break inside.
He hesitated for a moment and said, "It's not impossible. There will be many people guarding the room where we keep these things. I will take you in when the time comes."
"Can I observe alone? I want to take some notes or something."
Director Ma didn't care. "Okay. I don't care if you stay in there for a day. But you have to be gentle. Those things are old after all. If they get knocked and broken, you have to pay for it."
Qian Shulan nodded immediately, "Don't worry, if I do touch it, I will definitely compensate you at the original price."
Director Ma looked at me like I was stupid. "Original price? Do you know how much it sold for? How dare you talk nonsense?"
Qian Shulan was actually very interested and stared at him closely. "How much?"
Director Ma seemed to be afraid of scaring her, and said softly, "It will scare you to death if I tell you. A piece of porcelain costs at least several hundred dollars. Tell me, how much money can you afford to compensate?"
How many hundred dollars? The current exchange rate between RMB and USD is 2.4618:1.
That means that antiques that will be worth hundreds of millions in the future are now only sold for a few hundred yuan. Damn! Are they selling at such a low price
Qian Shulan wanted to curse in her heart! On the other hand, she was wondering if the medicine she gave Li Shirong last time was enough to buy these antiques
Don't let these things get out.
Director Ma saw that her face was getting uglier and uglier, and thought she was frightened, so he said, "See, you think it's expensive, too, right? So it's better to be careful."
Qian Shulan regained her composure and nodded seriously, "Don't worry, I will definitely be careful."
On the second day, Qian Shulan followed Director Ma to the place where they collected antiques, and then stayed in the room alone to absorb all the spiritual energy from these things.
It was because there were no surveillance cameras in that era that Qian Shulan dared to be so bold.
After she collected the spiritual energy, she asked Director Ma indirectly, "When will you deliver these goods to the big cities?"
"We only need to transport it to the county, and then the county revolutionary committee will contact the train to transport it directly to Beijing, Shanghai and other big cities. Generally speaking, it is transported once every three months. If the quantity is small, it is not worth the trouble."
Qian Shulan looked at him, "When was the last time? I won't come over that day. I won't bother you."
Since she is studying antiques, it is impossible for her to work for three days and rest for two days. She has to stay here for about one or two hours a day, without interruption.
Director Ma had no doubts, "The most recent one should be number seven."
Qian Shulan nodded, "Okay! Then I'll go back first."
Director Ma saw her off and told her to run the chicken farm well.
Qian Shulan looked at him with a half-smile, "There are already so many eyes watching our chicken farm from top to bottom. If I don't do it well, I think you will eat me."
Director Ma couldn't help laughing when he thought about County Magistrate Jiang asking him this every time they had a meeting. "That's true."
Qian Shulan assigned all the work on the chicken farm to her subordinates.
She won't take everything on herself.
Because there were so many chicks to hatch this time, all the laborers in the production team, from those aged between twelve and seventy, came to help.
Qian Shulan calculated work points directly according to the number of chicks hatched.
This time, all the educated youth were selected, and in order to earn more work points, they were all eager to take care of the hens.
This is a delicate job, you have to be careful and never slack off.
Especially when each of them took twenty hens back home, they had even less energy to do any more.
Because these people were novices, Qian Shulan specifically instructed Sun Daqin to arrange Liu Yueqin to guide them.
After coming back, I was quite satisfied.
Because there were a lot of accounts to be kept this time, Deng Xingming and Qian Yuetao were also brought over to help with the accounting.
The main responsibility is to record the number of hens and eggs each person brings home.
It actually relieved Sun Daqin of a lot of time.
Soon it was the seventh day of the New Year. Qian Shulan followed the antiques to the county town. She watched these antiques being loaded into the train compartment in her space. When no one was around, she directly absorbed all the spiritual energy.
After all her trouble, the medicines needed this time were barely enough.
After all the chicks were hatched, Qian Shulan fed them medicine one by one.
She dissolved all the medicine in warm water and no one else knew about it.
In order to make others believe that the ancient well in their production team had magical powers, Qian Shulan repeatedly reminded these people to give the hens water from the ancient well when hatching chicks.
Anyone who is lazy and is caught will have fifty work points deducted directly, and the person who catches him will be rewarded with thirty work points.
So the ancient well became a popular place, and people went to fetch water every day.
At the beginning, people living near the ancient well were miserable because they had no time to fetch water.
You want to fight, but you can't win. Personal matters are not as important as team matters.
Therefore, people living near the threshing ground strongly requested the brigade cadres to find another well-drilling team.
"We have to go around to the back to fetch water every day, and it takes half a mile. It's really too hard. Captain, please report this to the higher-ups."
Qian Minghua and Wang Shouquan had no way to deal with these people since there were so many chicks to hatch this time.
Besides, hatching chicks takes more than two months. We can’t let these members go without water, right
After the two discussed it, Wang Shouquan decided to apply to the higher authorities.
He not only submitted the application to the commune, but also to the county and the Water Conservancy Bureau.
As a result, the leader of the Water Conservancy Bureau did not receive the call. Instead, County Magistrate Jiang heard that they had difficulty in getting water and thought that the chicks to be hatched had no water to drink. So he ordered the director of the Water Conservancy Bureau to arrange for a well-drilling team to go to the countryside as soon as possible to dig a well for Wangjia Village.
Just when the leaders of the communes were still discussing how to tell the leaders above them.
The well-drilling team has entered Wangjia Village.
The speed shocked everyone.
When people arrived, the first thing to do was to count the families who needed wells dug.
What’s different from a decade ago is that this time almost every family signed up.
Over the past decade or so, many families have split up, so according to statistics, there are about three hundred families that need to dig wells.
When the well-drilling team leader heard this number, the corners of his mouth twitched.
They can have at least a week's rest next time in the village. Considering these 300 households, they will have to fight for at least a month.
In other words, they have no days off this month.
Seeing that they looked unhappy, Wang Shouquan asked the family who dug the well to bring out some good food to entertain them that night.
After all, we are serving you, and of course you are the ones who have to pay.
When the well diggers saw that they had stewed chicken soup, they kept swallowing their saliva.
Then scrambled eggs and vegetables were served one after another.
This should be the most sumptuous hospitality they have received since they went to the countryside.
So these people put away their stern faces and concentrated on helping them dig a well.
One difference between this time's well drilling and that of more than a decade ago is that it does not need to be dug that deep.
It only takes 20 meters, so the speed is much higher than before.
A group of people can drill at least three wells a day.
Time flies, and a month has passed in the blink of an eye.
The well-drilling team withdrew from Wangjia Village, but those who learned how to raise earthworms stayed in Wangjia Village.
During this period, trucks from the department store and supply and marketing cooperatives came almost every day to deliver eggs.
Sun Daqin was a quick-talker, and sometimes she would even deliberately report the money she received to these people. They were all extremely envious.
Then Qian Shulan found that these people were even more enthusiastic about learning how to raise earthworms.
