Rebirth of the Nine-Three Era

At this moment, Yin Hongjun's BB camera rang.

Yin Yuan took out his mobile phone and called him back.

"Are you Yin Hongjun? I am Yang Jinlan. I met your sister on the county street today. She told me your BB phone number. You will do well in Guangdong, you can use the BB phone..."

Yin Hongjun said excitedly: "Hello Yang Jinlan, I haven't seen you in a few years. Are you still working in a food company?"

"The food company has closed down, and I am planning to go to Guangdong to work after the Chinese New Year. I heard from you that you are doing well in Jiangming. Old classmate, can you take me out?"

Yang Jinlan said tactfully: "Of course, if it's inconvenient, I won't force it."

Yin Hongjun said: "What's the inconvenience? But my brother and I run a decoration company and a building materials factory. I wonder if there is any suitable job for you?"

Yin Yuan heard him say this from the side and said quickly: "We also have building materials stores and construction companies, and there are many jobs suitable for girls."

Yang Jinlan also heard what Yin Yuan said on the other end and said happily: "It's agreed, I will go to Guangdong with you to work after the Chinese New Year."

Yin Hongjun told her that if she really wanted to go, my brother and I would go on the seventh day of the Lunar New Year. Then we could take my brother's car and go together.

He also asked her if your family still lives in the family compound behind the food company?

He remembered going to her house once with several other classmates when he was studying.

Yang Jinlan said yes, you went to work outside to make a fortune, but you didn’t come to see me. I used to study at the same table as you, and if there was delicious food at home, I would bring it to school for you to eat, but you forgot.

Yin Hongjun scratched his head and said, "You are from the city and I am from the countryside. I am afraid that you will look down on me, so I dare not contact you."

Yang Jinlan said that you, Yin Hongjun, know how to look through cracks in doors. Did I look down on you when I was studying?

Yin Hongjun said that either I will go find you tomorrow morning, or I will be at the gate of your family home at nine o'clock tomorrow.

The two agreed to see each other.

Yin Benrong felt much relieved after hearing this.

He said to his eldest brother: "I can apply for retirement after working in the cement factory for another two years. Then I want the Red Army to take my place..."

The Red Army quickly said: "Dad, what's the benefit of being a cement factory worker? The salary is only three or four yuan a month, you are as tired as a dog, and the working environment is so dusty."

Yin Benrong wanted to say: "You have been working for so many years, but this year is the only time you really make money, and it is not from small yuan. In the past few years, when you went home for the New Year, your pockets were still empty. Working in a cement factory is more stable than working in a tungsten mine, and in the end At least I can guarantee a salary every month.”

But now he is with Xiao Yuan and has made tens of thousands this year. Next year or even beyond, he can only get better and better.

He doesn't go to work in the cement factory, and there's no need to force him.

Yin Benrong said: "If you don't go, I will pull you down. Let Hongping go when the time comes. It is more popular for girls to work as workers in the unit, and the work assigned will not be assigned to the hardest type of work."

Hong Ping said: "Look at the time, I may not necessarily work as a worker in a cement factory..."

……

It's still cold outside.

There are long icicles hanging from the eaves, which look particularly crystal clear.

Wanting was very happy to see Bingling outside. After breakfast, she said she wanted to go outside to see Bingling.

Her mother was worried that the road outside was slippery, so she gave her a new pair of water boots to wear and told Yin Yuan to take good care of her.

There are crystal clear ice edges everywhere, on the trees on the roadside and in the thorn bushes beside the ditch.

She brought her camera and said she would take pictures outside.

The pond behind the village primary school was covered with a thin layer of ice.

Throw a pebble up and go from one end to the other side.

The red soldier told Nianzu to go to Niu'aoling Reservoir, where Qing Reservoir was located, and there were many people watching on the embankment.

According to local rural customs, whether it is a fish pond or a reservoir, after the owner catches the fish, other villagers will go out to clean it up again.

No one can catch all the fish in the mud, especially the small fish.

Teenagers are especially good at swimming in the mud of fish ponds or reservoirs.

In the past, he and Hong Bing were like everyone else. During the Chinese New Year, whenever they found a fish pond or reservoir that needed to be cleaned, they would wait at the scene early with fish baskets or fishing nets.

After the owner of the fish pond had caught almost all the fish and left, others rushed in.

He saw Hong Bing and Nian Zu holding fish baskets and fishing nets in their hands, and couldn't help but say to them: "My family has bought so much fish and meat, why are you two going to join in the fun?"

You may not be able to finish the ingredients you buy during the Chinese New Year.

"Let's go and have a look. If the atmosphere is not good, it's impossible to catch fish. If there are a lot of small fish and shrimps, take them back and bake them dry, take them to Jiangming, and stew them with peppers. The taste will be particularly delicious."

"I'm going to catch some snails and fry them at home in a few days."

Wanting also said that we should also go to Qingshui Reservoir and have a look.

The fish in the reservoir are relatively large. Since today is New Year's Eve, every household in the village will buy fish and pork.

Therefore, these big fish in the reservoir have been selling well.

On the way, I met many villagers going to the reservoir to buy fish.

Among them was Sun Fuyuan, who took Li Yanping to open a house in the county town yesterday.

Yin Yuan deliberately asked him: "Master Sun, what happened to your face? You were caught so badly. Did you fight with your wife?"

His face was covered with fingerprint marks.

Sun Fuyuan said in a low voice: "That stinky bitch, I will divorce her one day."

I saw him carrying a grass carp weighing three to four kilograms home.

This reservoir is now contracted by Sun Gengwen's family. I heard that the contract lasted for three years. The lease expired this year. The last time the reservoir bid was contracted by Li Xiaojun's family.

Therefore, Sun Gengwen’s family wants to clear out all the fish in the reservoir.

Yin Yuan and Sun Gengwen were the same age, went to elementary school together, and were seatmates.

This Sun Gengwen was definitely precocious when he was a child. He was eleven or twelve years old, and he did more outrageous things than some old perverts.

Hiding in the toilet, he peeked through the cracks in the bricks at the woman in the toilet next door, hugging and kissing the girl on the haystack outside.

When this bad guy had an argument with Yin Yuan over a trivial matter, he grabbed a pencil and stabbed him in the face.

Yin Yuan still has two black spots on his face, which were left by Sun Gengwen.

At that time, the teacher called the parents to handle the matter, and his father also said that it was normal for children to fight.

Yin Benfan had no choice but to use his status as a teacher to prevent the head teacher from placing them at the same table.

Yin Shuiyuan, the strongest person in the class, was arranged to sit at the same table as Sun Gengwen.

Yin Shuiyuan was a minor celebrity in Gutian Village, with the worst academic performance. He failed to pass the junior high school entrance exam after repeating the exam for three years.

Shan attended primary school for eight years.

But his father still insisted on sending him to repeat his studies.

Principal Li joked that Yin Shuiyuan was a veteran of the Anti-Japanese War for eight years.

The other classmates are only 12 years old. He is already fifteen or sixteen years old and the tallest.

Yin Yuan was unwilling to be bullied by Sun Gengwen. Ever since Yin Shuiyuan and Sun Gengwen shared the same table, Yin Yuan often sent food and small gifts to Yin Shuiyuan on the condition that Yin Shuiyuan would beat Sun Gengwen every once in a while.

In the end, Sun Gengwen was beaten so hard that he did not dare to go to junior high school, because with Yin Yuan's help, Yin Shuiyuan successfully passed the junior high school this year, and he was in the same class as Sun Gengwen.

Yin Yuan graduated from junior high school and passed the county high school.

After Yin Shuiyuan graduated from junior high school, he started a small business selling fish, chickens and ducks with his father.

Sun Gengwen worked as a farmer at home, and his father contracted to raise fish in fish ponds. He became the main labor force in the family.

At the outlet of the reservoir, Yin Yuan saw Yin Shuiyuan and Sun Gengwen.

One sells fish, and the other sells fish to other places.

Yin Shuiyuan drove a tricycle with a water basin on it. The basin was filled with water and he was putting fish into the basin one by one.

Sun Gengwen weighed the fish and recorded it in his notebook.

Two guys who were incompatible as children are now partners.

The Sun family hired a few helpers to help clear the reservoir today. They are using buckets to bring the fish caught with fishing nets from the reservoir to this side and pouring them into the fish baskets.

"Boss Sun, we have a great harvest today."

Yin Yuan greeted them from afar.

The two looked up and saw him. They were stunned for a moment, and then returned to normal.

"The only person who can truly be called the boss of Gucheng Village now is you, Yin Yuan."

He was the first person to drive his luxury car back to the village.

Sun Gengwen said quickly: "Yin Yuan, how many fish do you want, and I can pick them for you?"

Yin Yuan said: "Yesterday I went to Xiashan Town with Hong Bing. He bought a few fish and more than ten kilograms of pork in the town. I came here specifically to see the excitement today."

Sun Gengwen glanced at Lin Wanting and said with a smile: "It's good that Yin Yuan married such a beautiful wife."

Yin Yuan knew that the two of them got married a few years ago and had children who were five or six years old.

Sun Gengwen's wife was standing by to help with accounting and collecting money.

He said: "You two have children ready to go to elementary school. I just got married not long ago and the child is still in my wife's belly."

Another villager came to buy fish, so Yin Yuan took Wanting away.

When we got up to the reservoir dam, we saw that the water in the reservoir was completely empty.

Sun Gengwen's father and seven or eight helpers were fishing for fish in the mud.

Hong Bing, Nian Zu and many others were picking up snails on the cliff. Occasionally, they could also catch a few loaches and eels.

Everyone else was walking barefoot in the mud, but the two of them were wearing high-water boots.

At this time, next to them, an eleven or twelve-year-old boy reached out to dig out a small hole under the cliff. There were crabs, eels or loaches in it.

Suddenly the boy shouted in fear: "Oh, there is a snake, the snake bit me!"

His finger was bitten by a snake.

Shaking it off hard, the snake turned around and dived into the mud next to it.

The boy's fingers were bitten with blood, and he gritted his teeth in pain.

I was scared to death, and cold sweat broke out on my forehead.

The red soldier deliberately said in horror: "You are finished. You have been bitten by a poisonous snake. Deal with it quickly, otherwise you will die from the poison soon."

The boy shouted to his father who was squatting on the embankment: "Dad, come here and help me quickly. I have been bitten by a poisonous snake."

He quickly walked to a stream ditch and asked his father who ran over to cut the wound.

"Hurry up and cut it, let go of the snake venom and you'll be fine."

His father was also a fool and was about to cut the flesh and bleed it.

Yin Hongbing's laughter came from the distance: "It's just a mud snake, and it's not poisonous. It won't kill you if it bites you ten times."

This mud snake generally does not bite unless it feels threatened.

The boy breathed a sigh of relief, picked up the fish basket and walked over again, scolding Yin Hongbing: "Smelly Hongbing, you deliberately scared me, believe it or not, I will throw a handful of mud at you?"

Yin Hongbing glared at him and said with a smile: "That mud snake is still in the mud, how dare you come here?"

The boy raised his head and said, "It's not a poisonous snake. What am I afraid of?"

At this time, he saw several helpers hired by the Sun family starting to lift the tools in the mud and the last few buckets of fish onto the shore.

Sun Gengwen and his father were making one last inspection to see if there were any big fish in the mud, and were about to prepare to evacuate.

The boy said: "You are ready to leave. I will ignore you."

Hongbing and Nianzu had already seen their eldest brother and sister-in-law under the embankment. They hurriedly took off their water boots and sent them to them.

"Keep an eye on the water boots for us, and we'll go into the mud and catch some small fish."

The two of them were barefoot, rolled up their trousers and got down into the mud.

Wanting also said: "In such a cold weather, won't they be cold?"

Because I was fishing in the mud pond, I took off the thick cotton-padded jacket on my upper body and threw it on the embankment.

All the feet were red from the cold.

But everyone was focused on fishing in the mud.

Most of the big fish in the mud have been collected by the pond owner, but the small fish hidden in it will definitely not be fished out.

If you put your hands into the mud, you can quickly find small fish.

If you are lucky, you can catch a big fish from the mud prize.

After a while, Hong Bing and Nianzu both touched small fish weighing several kilograms and walked ashore.

Go to the ditch to clean the fish and wash the mud off your hands and feet.

Put on a cotton-padded jacket and water boots.

Wanting asked the two of them to go home quickly and put hot water on their feet.

There are dozens of people fishing in the mud inside the reservoir.

Yin Yuan took Wanting for a walk on the opposite river embankment. He pointed to the sand on the river beach and said: "This river has been used for gold mining in ancient times. Starting next year, Du Jiansheng and Li Yihang will buy a gold mining boat. As soon as the dry season begins, we’ll start digging for gold here.”

Although she doesn't care about her own business, she still needs to know about investment projects.

Wanting heard him talk about buying a gold mining boat to dig for gold, but the specific operation method was not very clear.

"Are you sure there must be gold in this river?"

Yin Yuan said: "There is gold in this river. The villagers along the river all know it. Many people have wooden gold pans at home, including my second uncle's house. But this method of manual gold panning is too backward. , gold mining also depends on luck. If you are lucky, you can make a little fortune, but if you are not lucky, you will not make any money. Therefore, there are fewer people doing gold mining by hand. But the gold mining boat we buy is hundreds of times more efficient than manual work. A gold mining boat can take hundreds of people to carry it, and there will be no omissions. You can wash all the sand on the river beach and recover as long as there is gold."

Wanting said worriedly: "But you are not at home. You don't know whether the gold mining boat made a profit or a loss?"

Yin Yuan said: "We must arrange for our own people to participate in management. I am going to let Hongping participate in the accounting work and let her report the data to me every week. Besides, gold mining is no better than opening a factory, and the cost is average. There won’t be any major changes. The sales side will just be involved when the time comes.”

Wanting said: "Your business brain is much smarter than mine. I believe in your ability."

This section of the river embankment in Gucheng Village is at least five or six miles long. Walking it all would be too hard for Wanting.

After walking halfway, we took a fork in the road and returned to the village.
