With the spiritual spring space, rebirth in the red era
Chapter 21 Place a big order
Xue Jianping stayed up until 11 o'clock at night to knead three wolf-skin tubes. Xue Ming gave him 3 yuan for the crafting fee and wanted to leave, but he was kept overnight. He was told that there were commune militia patrols at night and he could not go out.
Since there were not enough beds, they made bunks on the floor in the main room. Xue Jianping was very excited after earning 15 yuan. "I suggest you sell the wolf skin to buy food. We are not related, so I don't need to lie to you."
This was the third time he said that he would sell wolf skins to buy food. Xue Ming couldn't help but be cautious, "Did you hear something?"
Xue Jianping shook his head, "In the past, the factory gave me 38 kilograms of food stamps every month, and the two children combined received 30 kilograms of food stamps. Since last month, the factory has only given me 30 kilograms, and the two children only 20 kilograms." "
This is a sign of food shortage. Xue Ming recalled carefully that it seemed that there had been no rain in Zhao Village for more than two months. If this continues, the food production this year will definitely decrease.
Now there are 200 kilograms of corn and 500 kilograms of wheat in the space. It is a bit nervous to feed six people, one donkey and one dog. Xue Ming nodded to accept his suggestion.
"Xiao Xue, you are a capable person. If I were you, I would definitely buy all your belongings into food." Xue Jianping patted Xue Ming on the shoulder, "Listen to my uncle and sell all the wolf pelts tomorrow to buy food."
"Okay, thank you uncle for reminding me." Xue Ming slept soundly that night, and was woken up by Xue Jianping at 6 a.m. the next day. Xue Daxia had already prepared breakfast.
His family was short of food. Xue Ming refused to eat his food, so he pushed the chicken bus out of the cannery's family yard and went to the Sichuan University Dairy Farm. He found a deserted place and threw the chicken bus into space.
After queuing for an hour at the milk station to get 3 pounds of fresh milk, I drank the remaining one pound to feed the little donkey. I was surprised to find that the little donkey was a lot bigger than yesterday.
"Why do you grow up so fast? Could it be that the spiritual spring water can make you grow up quickly?" Xue Ming held the donkey colt in his arms and sat by the pond in a daze.
His body has changed a lot after drinking Lingquan for a long time. He used to have difficulty carrying a 100-pound wolf, but now he can pick up a donkey with one hand.
My family also drinks Lingquan every day, but there is no obvious change. They only say that the water from Lingquan is delicious and relieves fatigue.
"It would be great if the spring water could really make you grow up quickly." Xue Ming rubbed the donkey's head and left the space, following the address given by Xue Jianping to the residential area opposite the commune.
After asking around all the way, I found Niu's little yarder and knocked on the door. After a few minutes, the wooden door opened a crack, "Comrade, who are you looking for?"
The speaker was a middle-aged man, wearing a Chinese tunic suit and leather shoes, with his hair parted in the middle and looking very energetic.Xue Ming said, "Are you Mr. Niu? Xue Jianping from the leather factory introduced me..."
"Go somewhere else if you want food." The door closed with a creak and was rejected.
Xue Ming frowned, recalled for a moment and was sure it was this address, stretched out his hand and continued to knock on the door.
The door opened again. This time it was a woman. She looked very fashionable in her bragi. Xue Ming smiled and said hello, "Comrade, is this Niu Baolin's home in Guangming Hutong?"
The woman looked at Xue Ming's patched clothes with a hint of contempt, "I don't have any buns left at home. You can go and ask elsewhere."
The good guy was treated like a beggar again. Xue Guang took two steps back and turned around to leave. "They say Mr. Niu is a man of justice and wealth, but I didn't expect that he only recognizes clothes and not people."
"Let him in!" A strong voice came from the yard. The woman looked around and let Xue Ming in.
The small courtyard is not big but very exquisite. There are rooms on the east, west, north and west sides like a courtyard. In the middle of the courtyard is a flower pond filled with flowers. Three little chickens ran to Xue Ming's feet and chirped.
Niu Baolin sat on a chair and admired the flowers, "I don't know Xue Jianping, Yue Ting went to get a steamed bun for this little comrade."
Shen Yueting went back to the house and took a black steamed bun to Xue Ming, "Come on, little comrade, isn't it unlucky to come home to beg for food so early in the morning?"
Xue Ming took the steamed bun and took a bite. It was made of sorghum noodles and felt a little stuffy. He put it in his pocket to take it home and feed it to rhubarb.
Niu Baolin, who was admiring the flowers, finally raised his head and looked at the person with a straight face, "Comrade, there is actually no shame in begging. I grew up begging for steamed buns. Why did Xue Jianping ask you to find me?"
"Comrade Niu, won't you invite me in for a cup of tea?" Xue Ming discovered that Shen Yueting was also wearing leather shoes. These days, a pair of leather shoes cost more than ten yuan and ordinary people couldn't afford them.
Niu Baolin chuckled, "You can drink tea anytime, but my tea is a bit expensive. Do you have the strength to be my guest?"
He stood up and teased the bird in the cage, "It's easy to be a guest of someone like me, as long as you can come up with something that interests me."
"I'm sorry, I don't care who is the guest of honor." Xue Ming felt that this man's style was very similar to that of a die-hard farmer from the Qing Dynasty. "I only care about whether you can give me what I want, such as this..."
Xue Ming bent down and grabbed the chicken baby on the ground. It looked like a little hen. His mother had always dreamed of raising a pig and three old hens. The commune only allowed private individuals to raise so many.
"You're good at it, there's nothing that Niu can't bring out." Niu Baolin sat by the flower pond holding a bird cage, "Grain, cloth, roosters and hens, sewing machines, bicycles, and armored vehicles as long as you have the money, I can drive them over for you .”
This person's tone was very loud and his attitude was very high. He didn't know if he could get a mobile phone. Xue Ming took out four wolf skin tubes from the sack and put them on the clothesline at his house. "These four small items can be exchanged for An armored vehicle?”
Niu Baolin's eyes widened immediately, and his wife Shen Yueting also ran over in small steps. The couple carefully inspected the wolf skin.
"What a good thing!" Niu Baolin's eyes shone. Forest gray wolves are much more precious than prairie gray wolves. The largest male wolf's bag is even more exquisite, and it is also the rarest thing among Hong Kong celebrities.
"Yue Ting, make the tea." Niu Baolin hugged Xue Ming's shoulders with a smile on his face, "Brother, go inside and talk."
Xue Ming broke away from his arms and put the wolf skin into the sack again, "I want 1 rooster, 10 hens, 1 male goose, 10 female geese, 1 boar baby, 1 sow baby, 3 Hen, I want wheat for the rest, when will it be available?”
Niu Baolin was stunned for a moment, "I can get the goods, but you can't do it like this, brother. The commune stipulates that each family can only raise one pig and three chickens. Anyone who violates the regulations is a capitalist..."
"You don't need to worry about this." Xue Ming waved his hand impatiently, "You calculate the account for me and tell me a trading time."
"Please wait a moment." Niu Baolin immediately took out a pen and paper and started writing. After he finished writing, he showed it to Xue Ming for review.
11只鸡40元,11只鹅50元,两头猪娃44元,3只鸡娃2毛钱,227斤小麦68元,加起来是200.2元。
The price Niu Baolin gave for these four wolf-skin bags was not low, and was similar to Xue Jianping's estimate. With these things, he could rest easy for the time being.
"Give me 240 kilograms of wheat in round numbers." Xue Ming pocketed the list, "How long will it take for delivery?"
