With knocks on the door, a middle-aged woman's voice came from inside, "Who is it? What's the matter?"

Mei Xue didn't speak, but He Yu responded outside, "It's me, ma'am, I need your help!"

The aunt opened the door and saw a strange man, and then looked at Mei Xue next to her. She didn't know this strange man, but the child next to him did.

"Mei Xue? You came to my house again to beg for food? And now you bring a big man?"

It seems that the aunt has misunderstood, He Yu quickly explained, "Auntie, you misunderstood, I brought Xueer to see you, thank you for helping Xueer's family and taking care of Xueer, this is a small gift, I hope you are welcome!"

Although He Yu didn't know the aunt in front of him, it was more efficient to go door to door to thank and investigate.

When the aunt saw the bag of eggs He Yu handed over, she was very happy, and took it, "So it's Xue'er's uncle! Come here, why don't you bring anything else, so many eggs are enough for a month !"

Not only that, but the aunt also restrained her previous attitude towards Mei Xue. In the past, seeing Mei Xue was like seeing the God of Plague, and it was too late to hide, let alone greet Mei Xue.

"Xue'er, it seems that you really found a good uncle. Your uncle treats you really well. Look at the eggs, each one is bigger than a fist!"

"Oh, it's all my fault. Look at the two of you standing at the door. Come and follow me into the house. I'll pour you a few glasses of water to drink and rest your feet."

The aunt hurriedly ushered He Yu and Mei Xue into the door, and poured tea for them respectively.

"Before, I thought that Mei Sanniang must have been misunderstood. The family didn't know, otherwise this woman wouldn't have ended up like this! But it's good, now you're here! Sanniang will be blessed in the future! Just don't If you know whether modern medical technology can cure madness, if you can act like a normal person, that would be great."

He Yu said, "Don't worry, I will take Sanniang to the best hospital to see a doctor in the future, and I believe that the disease will be cured soon!"

"That would be the best! By the way, you two just brought me eggs. How embarrassing. Actually, I didn't help much before. I just helped Xueer a little bit! Right, Xueer !"

Speaking of relief, it's not really a thing to talk about, it's just a few mouthfuls of unwanted corn bread, Mei Xue didn't take it to heart.

"Oh, yes." He Yu smiled.

"By the way, aunt, why are you the only one at home? What about your family? Isn't everyone at home?"

"Damn, my son and daughter-in-law have gone to work in the field! The grass grows more lush every day, and the insects become more edible every day. My crops are almost eaten up by those locusts. , You said that these pests are true, why not eat them?"

"Then why don't you buy some medicine to get rid of the bugs?"

"Buy medicine? You don't have to spend money to buy medicine. If you can save a little, save a little. Our family is not that rich! And the vegetables that have been treated with medicine may not be nutritious! It's better to be pure natural."

"You are right! But this way the harvest is less, and it has been planted for several days. Not only must it be planted, but also watered, and it must be taken care of every day, waiting for it to germinate, then slowly grow up, and wait for it to mature. When it was eaten by the locusts or the buds were just emerging, they were eaten by the locusts, so the harvest would not be good."

The aunt sighed, "What can I do, we can't catch locusts one by one."

"It doesn't matter! You can plant as many soybeans and fruit trees around as possible, which will help reduce the damage of locusts!"

"Can it still be like this?" The aunt looked at He Yu suspiciously and didn't believe what he said.

"Young man, planting some soybeans and fruit trees can suppress the locusts. You are joking with me. These locusts are very powerful, and we are not easy to catch them, and they are also very difficult to get rid of."

"It's fine if you don't try it. Anyway, planting a little soybean and fruit trees will yield a harvest."

The aunt looked at He Yu with suspicion.

"Okay, I'll try it if I have the chance. If your method can really restrain the locusts, the harvest will increase a lot!"

Although she said she accepted He Yu's proposal, in fact, he didn't believe what He Yu said at all. If the locusts can be repelled by planting some soybeans and fruit trees, why do they need pesticides? The main reason is that pesticides are expensive and She has a lot of land.

"By the way, ma'am, you said you have a lot of land? Is there a lot of that kind of grain? How is the harvest?"

The aunt was very puzzled, why did the river fish ask so many questions?If it's different, other people usually don't think it's a bird. The main reason is that He Yu gave her a bag of eggs. Such a rich person needs to establish a good relationship, and she may need it in the future.

Because of this, she replied, "Let's just harvest. Usually, because of the locusts, the harvest is not very good, but it is still enough to eat. Our family has surplus food to sell, but, generally The round-trip fare will cost a lot of money, and it won’t sell much.”

It seems that often He Yu thinks exactly the same as the villagers. Everyone is distressed. The harvest is not good and they cannot be sold.

"Ma'am, I have a suggestion, don't know if I should say it or not?"

"Young man, if you have anything to say, just talk about me, aunt, and listen."

He Yu also cut straight to the point and said to the aunt, "I came to our village not only because of Sanniang, but also because I wanted to help everyone. You know we have a lot of acres of land, but the harvest is not good, and there are still One reason is that the harvested grain cannot be transported out, because the cost of transporting it out is very high, and the cost of going back and forth is enough to be your selling price!"

"am I right?"

The aunt nodded and looked at He Yu, "Is there anything you can do, kid?"

"Auntie, I can tell you that of course there is a way. I think so, that is, I help us to plant the land, and then sell all the harvest to me at the market price, and then pay some of it in proportion. Of course, you can rest assured. I will not use the money you paid without permission! I will disclose all the money you paid to the public!"

The aunt asked in confusion as if she didn't understand, "You mean you want us to pay you a little money, and then you help us sell these vegetables, don't you?"

He Yu nodded, which probably meant the same thing, "Auntie, sister Lingling is right, you pay a little money, but the money is paid according to the proportion of your sales, and I will not use the money paid. Instead, the money will be made public, and then handed over to the village chief for safekeeping! The public payment data will make you feel more at ease, lest you mistakenly think that I have embezzled it privately!"

"Oh, so that's the case. Then what is the money we paid for? Why do we have to pay you a little money?"

He Yu reminded, "Auntie, you are asking the right person. The money paid is actually to help us build a road to the outside, so that it will be convenient for everyone to transport in the future. Look at the money paid. In fact, It is everyone who contributes together, but the ratio of investment is different. If you sell more, the proportion of investment will be higher. If you sell less, the proportion of investment will be less.”

The aunt said as a matter of course, "Then I will definitely choose the one with a lower proportion of investment! Think about it, everyone is buzzing to contribute, how is it possible! They are all eager to hold the money in their own hands, who will go out?" Send money!"

"No, ma'am, you misunderstood, but your contribution is based on the proportion of sales. If you sell less, you will get less money yourself. If you sell more, you will have more money!"

The aunt was dizzy when she heard this, she shook her head and stopped He Yu, "Let me think about it, you, I can't understand you at all!"

"What is it that I sell a lot and I get a lot, and then I invest a lot and sell a lot. What is this? I'm confused by what you said. Please let me take care of it. I'm getting old, my brain is not working well, and I can't turn a corner!"

"It's a very simple thing. It means that the more you sell, the more money you will make?"

The aunt nodded for this reason.

"Isn't that right? The more money you earn, but if you want to invest it, isn't the ratio you pay more?"

"Then can I invest less?" the aunt asked.

At this time, Mei Xue said to the aunt, "This is not acceptable! If you sell a lot, but you don't invest in proportion to the investment, it is tantamount to being unfair to everyone! Everyone is doing this just to build a road leading to the town. Great way. It’s for everyone’s sake, not for individuals!”

Even the children already understood the concept that He Yu wanted to convey. He touched Mei Xue's little head in relief, then looked at the aunt and nodded, "Xue'er is right, that's exactly what she meant. If you sell It’s very unfair to everyone with too much investment and little investment!”

"So that's the case, what if I don't participate?"

He Yu smiled, "It doesn't matter if you don't participate, then if you want to transport the food and grain you planted, you can only transport it out by yourself, instead of handing it over to me to help sell it, and get the market price Compared to us, I’m afraid you won’t be able to get that price, because there will be a little loss of vegetables during transportation.”

"You also know that if it takes several days to transport the vegetables to the town, the vegetables have already deteriorated, and they will definitely not be sold at the market price!"

"But if you ask me to buy it on the spot, I will definitely sell it to you at the market price, which is the highest price! If you alone are higher than the market price, it may be difficult to sell!"

Now the aunt has understood.

"You mean to ask me to support you? Call us to sell you vegetables together, right?"

He Yu nodded.

"That's okay! I think this method is also okay! In this way, the vegetables sold will not rot, and we will not grow them white. You said that each of us villagers wake up early and work late, just to grow that little vegetable, and want to sell it for a good price. , People in the city look down on them, and they want to lower the price of this dish little by little. If you say they don’t buy it, our food will only rot, which is a pity.”

"I definitely support this matter, and the road construction is everyone's business, and I want to contribute too! I will tell the rest of the family at that time!"

He Yu thanked Auntie for her support very much, and then looked at Xueer, "Please record it, Auntie Auntie agrees very much, and I have to tell my family."

Xueer quickly took out a pen and paper and wrote the name of her aunt's family on it.

"Then thank you, Ma'am, I'll come back and see how your house is doing!"

"Okay, tell me next time you come, so I can prepare something in advance, you see, you came here and brought me such a big bag of eggs!"

"Go, I'll see you off!"

He Yu immediately declined the aunt's kindness, "Auntie, you go ahead! I have other things to do! Just stop!"

Saying goodbye to this aunt, He Yu went door to door and went to other people's homes for consultation, and then explained one by one.

He needs to drink a bottle of water after each explanation. Some families have elderly people. These elderly people can’t understand what He Yu is saying. Although it sounds like it makes sense, everyone doesn’t understand it. Whether it is true or false, only the money in your hand is real.

For an old man like this, it is very troublesome for He Yu to explain, but he has to explain it, because as the elder in the family, he has the most say. If he can impress the old man, it means that the whole family may favor him .

Day after day like this, He Yu got up early and stayed late every day, walking from one house to another.

"Is Xue'er tired today?" He Yu lay on the bed as if he had collapsed. He didn't know how long he had been walking today, and his mouth was dry when he said it.

Cher made a "hmm".

"Xue'er is not as tired as Uncle Yu. Uncle Yu not only has to speak, but is also scolded as a liar. Not only is he under physical and psychological pressure! Xue'er just follows by and records it is nothing."

"Little Xueer, we are all for the next village meeting. I hope more people will support my decision! I also hope that everyone can understand that I am doing this for their own good!"

"Sometimes an opportunity is right in front of you. If you don't cherish it, it will be impossible to redeem it when the opportunity passes, because the river will not flow back."

"Yes. Uncle Yu."

Three months have passed~
Time flies, and three months have passed, and the villagers in the village still get up early and stay late as usual.

I get up to do farm work before dawn, and then I start to walk slowly into the house after sunset. When I get home, I have a wife and a child. We all sit at the same table warmly, talking and laughing.

"Xiaoyu, your house is almost finished, why don't you go and have a look? Where do you need to renovate?"

Cui Erwa made a special trip to Mei San's mother's house today to tell He Yu about repairing the house. The house has already been repaired, only the furniture is missing.

"Let me know if you are still missing something, and tell me if you are not satisfied with the repair, don't be polite to me, we will cover all the repairs of the house, and housing is your business! But don’t you find something wrong after you live in and come to us again, it’s not easy for me to find those buddies.”

"Look at what you said, like I'm a wronged species, I won't trouble you, don't worry!"
