  Chapter 101 Asking for help in Liandong Village

  Dingling bell~~~

  Mountain trail in Liandong Village, Xingtang Commune.

  The bell rang, and the villagers who were busy in the fields raised their heads and looked over.

   These days, bicycles are definitely a rarity in mountain villages, just like the supercars of later generations.

  There are two reasons. One is that the mountain roads are difficult to travel. In many cases, it is not a person riding a bicycle, but a bicycle riding a person. The other is that bicycles are too expensive and tickets are required, which is almost impossible for rural people.

  So when you hear the car bell, nine times out of ten it is the leader from above.

  Leaders, they are all high-ranking big shots.

  But the villagers watched for a long time, and found that the person riding the bicycle today was not a leader in a Chinese tunic suit, but a young man in a padded jacket.

   "Hey, isn't this Chen Zhongzhuan from Xia Ze Village?"

   "Yes, that's him. Alas, I heard that their family has moved to the city to enjoy their blessings."

   "The head of the family, I have long said that I want my son to study, but you just don't listen. Now you know the importance of knowledge?"

  The villagers talked a lot when they saw Chen Qi, and most of them were envious. After studying in technical secondary school, he can ride a bicycle and live in the city with his family. Knowledge can really change people's fate.

  Chen Qi didn't even know that he had become the "object of ambition" of the mountain people.

  If I know it, I will be happier in my heart. Life in the mountains is too hard, and it will continue to be hard for the foreseeable decades. There is no way for children in the mountains. If they want to get out of the mountains, the only way is to study.

  However, he didn't come to show off today, but to find Village Chief Zhang Agen of Liandong Village.

  Zhang Agen is busy in the tea garden. The Chinese New Year is over, and Ching Ming Festival will soon come. The best Yuezhong Longjing will be picked before Qing Ming. It is called "Tea Before Rain", and the purchase price from the government is also expensive.

  The household contract responsibility system has started in rural areas, and the power of village cadres is much smaller. However, this tea garden is collectively owned, and Zhang Agen, as the village head, can have the final say.

   "Uncle Agen, are you busy?"

  Zhang Agen looked back, his eyes lit up: "Chen Qi, why do you have time to come to our Liandong Village today?"

   "Hi, I need your help with something."

   "Let's go, go to the house and say, you guys have taken the time to spread the fertilizer evenly. This year our village collectively depends entirely on these tea trees."

  Zhang's house is not far away. After Chen Qi entered the house, he put the two big front doors, two bottles of canned yellow peaches, and some dried lychee buns and dried longan buns on the table.

   "Uncle Agen, I don't have time to pay New Year's greetings this Chinese New Year. Now it's time to pay you a New Year's greetings."

  Zhang Agen laughed so hard that he couldn't see his eyes:

   "Chen Qi, you are too polite, just come and give such a heavy gift, this big front door, be good, I heard that only county-level cadres can smoke, good smoke, good smoke."

  Chen Qi also smiled: "That's right, it's just the cigarette ticket. I got it from the teacher. Fortunately, he doesn't smoke."

  The two chatted for a long time before Zhang Agen asked, "Why are you here this time?"

  Chen Qi drank the tea on the table and said quickly:

"I mainly want you to help find some masons. I want to renovate the house I rent in the city. The wall along the street is torn down and I want to open three stores. In addition, I need to build some furniture for the store. I am not in the city. There is no way out, I just want you to help me."

  Zhang Ah didn't know what to do at first, but now that he heard that it was such a trivial matter, he slapped his chest on his chest:

"It's a little meaning, there is no farm work during this period, I will find you some of the best masons and carpenters in the village, simple, if you have no way, the wood and bricks will be wrapped on me, and I will send them to you together , by the way, where do you live?"

  Chen Qi was delighted when he heard it:

"This is better. My family lives at No. 77 Lu Xun Road, just across from the former residence of Lu Shuren. By the way, the Chunbo River is right in front of my house, and the boat can go directly to it. I pay workers 2 yuan a day, and work for one day counts." One day, as for how much the building materials cost, Uncle Agen, you can tell me when the time comes.”

  Zhang Agen waved his hand and said grandly:

"You are demolishing the wall. You don't need much bricks. The old bricks you removed can still be used. It is mainly wood. We have plenty of this in the mountains. It is not worth much. My family has some old materials. I will supply them to you first." .”

  The store door panels on the Yuezhong side are made of pieces of wood. The clerk unloads them one by one in the morning, and installs them one by one after the store closes at night.

  In addition, the tables, chairs, benches, cabinets, and shelves used for opening a shop need to be made of wood, so the amount of wood used is relatively large.

  The project is not big and can be finished in a few days.

  The wages of 2 yuan a day, board and lodging are all at the master's house, which is already very high. These days, the average daily salary of a worker is less than 2 yuan. It turns out that the silly elder sister only costs 50 cents a day to carry bricks.

  Chen Qi looked at no one outside at this time, and said softly:

   "Uncle Agen, I also want to buy some pheasant, wild duck and hare meat that we mountain people can't eat up. As long as it is meat, we want cured goods, and the price is good."

   Zhang Argen, who is so smart, immediately guessed the intention, and asked with some worry:

   "Chen Qi, do you want to sell it? This will make a mistake, right? After all, your identities are different."

   "It's okay, Uncle Agen, my teacher has a lot of connections in the city, and most people don't dare to embarrass us. Besides, our four siblings all live in the city, and the expenses are also high. It is really difficult for me to rely on myself."

  Of course Chen Qi would not say that business is allowed in the city, if not, there is still a black market in Fushan where goods can be sold.

  It's not that there are no smart people. If the city can do business, and the people in the mountains buy it themselves and then sell it, then there is nothing wrong with him.

  As for the issue of expenses, there is no harm in selling it appropriately to make others feel superior.

   Sure enough, Zhang Agen nodded as soon as he heard it:

   "Since you have a connection, let me go to the village and tell you that there must be a lot of wax products in every household this winter, and you can sell them to make money. You have done a great job."

  Liandong Village is also deep in the mountains. Now there are many kinds of game in the mountains. People in the mountains have the habit of hunting, but the game they hunt is too much to eat, so they will be salted and then dried.

  Or to be more particular, just buy soy sauce and make sauce chicken sauce duck sauce rabbit meat, the taste is more concentrated.

   It is worthless in the mountains, and people in the city cannot eat it.

   Now Chen Qi is going to be this "speculator", which can help the silly elder sister pass the time and make a fortune.

   Living in the city, you have to buy everything. The sum of money, rice, oil, salt, sauce, tea and vinegar is indeed not small.

  Chen Qi still has 3,000 yuan in his pocket. Although it is a huge sum of money, it will be gone in the blink of an eye.

  Zhang Agen acted very quickly. He called a few dog legs and gave a few orders. Naturally, someone would go to the village to promote it.
