Seventh cousin still had to think about the specific selection of the chef. On the other end, Qi Lin hung up the phone with a wry smile on his face.
"What's the matter?" Tang Xiaodong had been there for a few days and had learned the dialect very quickly, so he asked out of curiosity.
"Nothing," Qi Lin said helplessly, "My folks from my hometown called and wanted to buy dried fish and shrimp..."
When Qi Lin said that the other party didn't want to sell it, he didn't believe it and thought that they were shirking their responsibility, so he insisted on telling him the price.
Qi Lin: …
Finally, he found a video of people buying fish. It was a noisy and chaotic scene, so he just took a quick shot. Anyway, the price of 40 yuan per catty was so high that everyone was shouting at the top of their lungs...
On the other end of the phone, the owner of the convenience store in Tugou Village also fell silent.
Just... How come people outside are so rich? A 41-pound fish is so popular! In their water-scarce area, even local fish can't be sold at this price!
Linzi has made great progress!
He sighed, turned around and saw his wife humming a song while stewing fish and preparing to heat up the pan and add oil to fry shrimps...
Suddenly I felt guilty.
…
Meanwhile, Song Tan was talking to Zhang Yanping about the holiday: "You haven't had a proper day off since March. When the tea eggs are on the shelves tomorrow, you can all take a month off."
She calculated: what she would have to do every day was just to make the sauce for tea eggs and reclaim land on the mountain, so she really didn't need to take care of the fields.
After the land reclamation on the mountain is completed in September, we will start building houses and preparing for planting... It will be just right to come back then!
And although Qiao Qiao doesn’t have many classes every day, he should have a summer vacation…
The most important thing is that Zhang Yanping has been brought back for several months, but he has not been allowed to go home once (even though he himself does not want to go back). I’m afraid my aunt must be complaining about it!
As for Wu Lei...
That's just a bonus.
But Wu Lei didn't know. He only knew that he had performed well, so Tan Tan allowed him to go home and comfort his parents and Li Li...
As expected of a blood relative, it’s still his cousin who has to think about him!
But for Zhang Yanping, this was purely a bolt from the blue!
"Is it okay not to take a holiday?"
He had just escaped from the bad food outside, and before he had even eaten two meals, he had to go home for the holiday again! Not only could he not eat good food when he went home, he even had to face the civil service exam!
!
No way, absolutely not!
Song Tan also felt a little guilty - when Brother Yan Ping came, he was a fat white man. He slid all over the market, who wouldn't praise him for being lovable
Looking at him now, he is tall, strong and dark. Although he is frowning, he doesn’t look sad at all. Instead, he looks ferocious!
Just send it back to my aunt like this... ah this...
Song Tan also felt guilty, and hesitated at this moment: "Well... Brother Yanping, it's been so long, and you haven't gone back once. My aunt calls my mother more and more frequently to ask about it... Why don't you go back..."
Zhang Yanping was even more miserable: "I was afraid that if I went back, my mother would sign me up for a civil service training class!"
Not to mention, although Brother Yanping is not very good at work, there has never been any problem in the management of the online store. For such a good talent, isn't it a waste to take the civil service exam
And his image... How can he look like an honest and fair civil servant? He is clearly a gangster with a green dragon on the left and a white tiger on the right!
On the other side, Xin Jun also had a tearful face and really didn't want to go back.
He lives here like he's at home, the work is easy and fun, he rarely stays up late, he eats three meals a day and gets enough exercise... His health is in great shape!
And with a monthly salary of 5,000, I can barely spend anything. My biggest expense is buying Ultraman for my student Qiao Qiao...
Every now and then, Song Tan would give him good things, and he could also send them home as holiday gifts.
In the four months since he started working in March, he has saved 16,000 yuan, which is truly unprecedented.
Not to mention the food, it’s so delicious!
Going home
Not only do I have to stay up late every day to accompany my children in the farm, but I also don’t get paid a penny. I have to wait for my parents’ permission to spend any money.
Every day, I have to wait in the hall, serve dishes, and do shopping. I am as tired as a dog. No, that's not right! The children in Song Tan's family are all living better than me!
Who would want to go home
When his mother called him, he even said that he had a job and was working as a teacher! He hadn't been hired as a full-time teacher yet!
After thinking about it, his mother felt that being a teacher was a good thing, and it would be abnormal if he didn't get a full-time job. She heard that it would take a year, so she gave up.
Now it's vacation, it's really summer vacation... but he doesn't want to go back at all!
Only Wu Lei was happily packing his luggage—there wasn't much to pack, just a few sets of clothes (the old clothes he wore for work were provided by Song Sancheng), and he also brought some tea, fish and shrimp back for his parents!
Tan Tan said that these were all deducted from his salary and he was asked to take the money back to appease his parents. Oh my god, he couldn't even think of such details!
Last time I bought peaches with my salary, his mother was very friendly for a long time! She was not so resistant when talking about the house.
The only problem is that he was paid 800 yuan out of a monthly salary of 3,000 yuan after working for two months, plus some expenses... well, he now has 186 yuan left.
Next month is Chinese Valentine's Day. I have my summer vacation and I have more than a hundred dollars in my pocket... How should I buy a gift for Lili
How about buying a regular train ticket for over 100 yuan, and then taking the subway to see Lili! I haven't seen her for a few months, so I'll go and ask Lili for forgiveness in person, explain my efforts, and let Lili see the dark skin and calluses from my hard work...
She will definitely be touched!
…
The three of them were on holiday, and both of them looked miserable, which made Tang Xiaodong and the others feel sympathetic. At this moment, they couldn't help but look at Professor Song:
"Teacher, we are building an affordable agricultural project in poor mountainous areas, we must see it through to the end, right?"
"Yes, this is still a barren mountain! Some of the plants we recommend may not survive the winter. We need to keep track of the seedlings, right?"
"There is too little that can be developed in Songtan Village. It's not easy for her family to have a formula and a project, and slowly develop it to drive the local economy... Teacher, they are just an ordinary family who have invested all their family assets in agriculture. We all go to the fields anyway, and the environment here is much more complicated than in the experimental field."
Professor Song pondered for a while: "Agricultural projects rely on manpower and the weather. There are too many uncontrollable factors... A few days ago, the experimental station in the border area sent me a message saying that due to hail this year, all the apricots harvested by local farmers were completely destroyed..."
"In this case, let's stay here and support them for a while!"
"Ordinary farmers don't have many channels. If you have come across any excellent varieties, you can help them try them out."
"In fact, I have been thinking about the finished apple tree these past two days. I have already made some progress. I will ask someone to confirm it in a couple of days, and then I can finalize the plan with Song Tan."
"As for the Amomum villosum, Tang Xiaodong, I remember you have been to the Yunnan-Guizhou Experimental Station. You can ask the locals if there are any varieties that are resistant to cold and heat. It's summer now, so you can send a few more to try."
Otherwise, why is Professor Song a teacher!
Yanran and the others looked at each other and started laughing.
