The richest man in the leisurely country

Chapter 282

Su Mu wandered around the vegetable base with a basket on his back, picked up several baskets of vegetable leaves and weeds and threw them into the pond.

During this period, Ali has been squatting by the pond, watching the fry swimming in it.

"I feel like you're a child now."

After finishing, Su Mu came to Ah Li, seeing that she was fascinated, he couldn't help laughing.

She looks like Su Mu and the others watching tadpoles by the stream when they were young.

At that time the river was still clear, sweeter than now, mainly very childlike.

"It reminds me of when I was playing with tadpoles when I was a kid. Several people can play there for a day. First catch the tadpoles together, block them with mud, put the tadpoles in, and watch them swim and swim in it. It's really fun. .”

"I haven't enjoyed this kind of life for many years."

While talking, Ah Li raised her head and gave Su Mu a grateful look.

She was really grateful to Su Mu, even though the two had had disagreements before.

But since coming here, Ali found that she had found the past little by little.

Especially when she was very young, she always missed the carefree life.

"Then now is your chance. As long as you want, you can live in our village. Look at how well our village is developing now. I have rented out all the land, and they are all busy in my fields."

"When you're free, you can come fishing, or you don't have to fish, just watch the fish swimming around in it. I'm also thinking about getting some eels and loach in it. Besides fishing, you can also drop fish." Loach, but that is a technical job."

"I also plan to open up the back of my house and build a factory building for chickens, ducks and geese." Su Mu laughed.

The sheds built before are only temporary, and can only accommodate two to three hundred chickens, ducks and geese.

If you want to breed on a large scale, you need to build a bigger factory.

"At that time, you can drive the ducks up the mountain and pick some fruit to eat when you are thirsty. If it is not possible, you can also carry a basket on your back and go to the mountain to cut grass to feed them."

"When you want to eat, you can just pull one and slaughter it. If you are afraid that your craftsmanship is not good, I can also help you make delicious ones."

Such a leisurely life is more than what Ah Li wants, Su Mu has always yearned for it.

And Su Mu is also working hard in this direction step by step.

Seeing the village develop step by step, various projects are completed, and living standards continue to improve, Su Mu is indescribably happy.

Happiness depends on struggle, and Su Mu is in struggle.

"Forget it, I'd better let go of my goat, I don't want to be too tired." A Li shook her head and refused.

Her dream since she was a child was to herd sheep, so she told Su Mu about it.

Su Mu nodded and said, "That's no problem. I can build a super-large factory building, feed hundreds of myself, and accommodate dozens of goats."

"Besides, you can also raise cattle. When the time comes, I will call those five or 60-year-old old men in the village to help me herd cattle, so that they will not be too bored or too tired."

In this way, the problem of labor force has been partially solved.

Those old men in their 60s and [-]s began to decline in physical strength, but they couldn't stay idle.

It is also very good practice to call them to herd cattle.

When Su Mu was very young, he went to the mountains to herd cattle with those old men and old ladies.

And Su Mu still remembered that there was a big bull, a scalper, very naughty.

When I met cows from other villages on the mountain, I followed them back with howls.

As for these old men and old ladies, they can't even run away, so they can only watch.

Then let these young children, run fast, follow along and move their cattle back.

It's just that after so many years, they are all getting old, and some of them have even passed away.

Looking back, life at that time was really good and comfortable.

Although I had no money, my life was simple and fun.

"Are you not letting go of old men and old ladies? You really are a blood-sucking capitalist." A Li glared at Su Mu and scolded angrily.

Su Mu's idea is too bold.

This is to turn everyone from young to old into their own labor force and work for them.

Hearing this, Su Mu touched his nose embarrassingly, and said with a smile: "What does this have to do with whether I am a capitalist? I rented their land, and they have nothing to do, so they can only stay at home all day .”

"Especially the older ones, who have worked hard all their lives, and it would be very uncomfortable to stop suddenly."

"So we have to find something for them to do and let them pass the time. Besides, it's not difficult to herd cattle. Now there are no people growing crops on the mountain. The cattle can eat whatever they want, as long as they are full and feed them Just hurry back."

In fact, the older people are, the more restless they are. They don't have any recreational activities every day, and they don't sleep very much.

So many old people get up just after dawn and go to work in the fields.

Even if there is nothing to be busy with, it is better to go to the field and exercise their muscles and bones, which is better for their bodies.

If they stay at home every day, they will feel dull, not to mention bad for their health.

"It seems to be the reason. I used to see many old people in the village can't stay idle. Some of them are in their seventies and eighties, and they still plant several acres of land by themselves, and the planting is very good."

"Some even have better bones than young people, and carry more things than young people."

Having said that, Ari nodded in sympathy.

Today's young people, because they don't often work in the fields, especially the generation of scholars, sometimes their physical strength may not be comparable to that of some old people.

He works in the fields every day, so his body is very strong.

"So, look, in my field, there are more older people who help plant and pick vegetables. Although their movements are not very agile, their techniques are quite professional."

"To be honest, if you are a little crazy, give them 50 yuan a day, and these old people are willing to work hard for you for a day. This is not my bragging, someone has done it before. But I will never do this kind of thing."

"They are responsible for picking, and the younger ones are responsible for transporting them to the roadside vehicles. Everyone does the same job, but the division of labor is different. So, sometimes I really admire them, and I don't know that I am in their grade. You don't have the energy to work."

Hard work, this is rooted in the bone.

Especially rural people, from birth to being able to move, until death, some have never stopped.

Even if life has improved now, they are still very hardworking, which is a kind of spirit.

"Stop talking, let's go back earlier, I'm a little hungry, I'll go back to have breakfast first." After hearing this, Ali stood up and stretched her waist.

In fact, she was also wondering if she could enjoy this kind of life all the time when she was in this grade.

But after thinking about it carefully, it seems that it is very far away. Whether I can live to that time is a big question.

Ah Li didn't want to say more, so Su Mu naturally wouldn't bother.

The two returned home all the way, and the second aunt had already prepared breakfast. After eating, Su Mu rested for a while, and then began to stand.

Unexpectedly, Ah Li came out with a hoe.
