Reborn in Changbai Mountain, I rely on my divine eyes to dig ginseng and hunt

Liu Daqiang acted really quickly. In a short while, he had drawn up a sketch of the sterilizer and also drawn up a budget.

"Director, we need a steel water tank. We think welding is troublesome, so we order it directly from outside. This is the largest accessory. Then there are stainless steel chain plates, stainless steel baskets, and reduction motors. That's all. It costs about two thousand. The principle is very simple. The chain plates drive the kimchi in the stainless steel basket to soak in water at about 80 degrees for ten minutes."

Liu Xialian was very happy and said, "Okay, let's do it. Purchasing is not as professional as you are. You go and make the arrangements. The accountant will get the money and do it as soon as possible."

Liu Daqiang said, "Director, I have the latest news to report to you. Someone dug up a 50-60 year old ginseng in the mountains north of Heixiazi Mountain near my home and sold it for more than 8,000 yuan. If the factory is short of funds, you can go and look around. You are the best ginseng digger in our area."

"Yes, this season is the best for digging ginseng. OK, you can start making the machine quickly. I will think about it."

Liu Daqiang turned around and went out to ask the accountant for money. Liu Xialian calculated that the kimchi factory would have to pay a lot of money in the next one or two months. Another 10,000 large vats, tens of thousands of acres of vegetable seeds, and radiators in the workshop, these few items would cost at least 150,000 or 60,000 yuan. It's true that you don't know how expensive firewood and rice are until you run the household. No, you have to go into the mountains to dig ginseng.

While he was thinking, Zhao Hua came, driving a horse-drawn carriage to the factory. When he saw Liu Xia Lian, he nodded slightly and went straight to the purchasing office to sell the goods.

Liu Xialian came over and took a look: "Wow, a full truck of bracken, we have all gone, where did you get them from?"

"Zhaojiagou is located in the shade of the mountains. Many places are quite cold. The season has already passed on the sunny slopes, but the shady slopes have just started. We can still harvest in the next day. It won't be a problem to get 10,000 kilograms. Have you found a way to export it?"

Liu Xialian shook her head: "I haven't found a direct way. I exported 10,000 bags of prickly ash buds. Manager Yang's way has almost no difference in price. I can only get a high price by directly finding merchants in South Korea."

"It's just the beginning now, don't be anxious, business doesn't start in one day, and export business can't be done without connections, but I think we should look for opportunities in coastal port cities, such as Dalian and Yingkou."

"Let's not talk about this for now. The current production is not enough to sell even at our doorstep. Are you busy these days? If not, let's go into the mountains for a few days. Let's go to the big mountain north of Heixiazi Mountain. Daqiangzi said that someone there has collected ginseng that is fifty or sixty years old. I plan to try my luck."

"Okay, when are you going?"

"Let's go the day after tomorrow. Xu Xiong is getting married tomorrow, and I'm lending him my jeep and tractor as wedding cars."

Zhao Hua scratched his head: "Why didn't this guy tell me he was getting married? How about I go to the wedding tomorrow?"

"Okay, then come on, the people in Mang Village are very welcoming. I'll give you a five-dollar gift, you guys don't want too much."

"Okay, got it."

The next morning, Liu Xialian prepared to set off from Lijiatun. Li Hu drove a big black mule carriage with Liu Xialian, Daya and Erya. Li Xiaofei also gave a gift, giving a red envelope of four yuan, which was considered a lot.

Xiao Fei said, "Sister, it's a shame for me to just give gifts and not eat. Please bring me some pickled vegetables when you come back."

Daya patted the plastic bag in her pocket and said, "Don't worry, I'll take care of it and carry all the cooks back to you."

The most common surname in Mang Village is Li, accounting for 70% of the population, about 1,500 people, and the surname Xu accounts for 30%, with a population of about 500 people. So there were quite a lot of people to help Xu Xiong get married. When Liu Xialian arrived, Xu Xiong's new house was full of people.

The chief steward who presided over the banquet was sharp-eyed and came over to greet him immediately.

"Director Liu, Brother Li Hu, Daya and Erya are all here. You have worked hard along the way." The manager held cigarettes and candies, giving cigarettes to smokers and candies to non-smokers. Daya and Erya were really rude, each of them took several candies, not afraid of tooth decay.

"Not hard, not hard." Liu Xialian led the people to present gifts first. Liu Xialian gave five yuan, Li Hu gave five yuan, Daya and Erya gave four yuan each, and Li Xiaofei gave four yuan. Xu Shiba didn't need to worry about it. He asked Li Ganzi to bring five yuan.

After the gifts were given, everyone went to stay in the wedding tent nearby. The bride hadn't arrived yet, so it was early to have the feast. But there was no need to worry as there would be some big pot dishes to eat first.

Someone in the accounting office murmured, "Isn't it said that Liu Xialian is very awesome? Xu Xiong has also worked hard with her, so why is the gift only five dollars? Isn't it a bit too little?"

The accountant said, "You don't understand this. The bonus and gifts were given a month ago. Liu Xialian bought them. The five yuan gift is because we don't want everyone to compare with each other and become burdened. This way, no one is under pressure. How great."

The VIPs sit in the wedding tent, while ordinary guests can only sit outdoors.

Although the economy was not developed in those days, the human touch was really strong. For such an important event as a wedding, all the aunts and uncles came, and each household borrowed at least 30 tables. The chef who was invited to host the wedding banquet was busy preparing in the shed. It looked like eight large bowls.

Li Hu couldn't stay idle, so he went over to take a look. It was quite a grand feast. Xu Xiong was willing to spend money to kill a pig and a sheep. There were two dried fruit plates, two fresh fruit plates, two cold dishes, and eight hot dishes. Among them, sweet and sour pork, four-happiness meatballs, stir-fried pork with peppers, and braised fish were all staple dishes.

"I think this table costs at least twenty-five or twenty-six dollars. Isn't this raising the standard? I'll have to order these dishes when I get married."

Erya said, "You should cook more when you get married, otherwise there won't even be any leftovers after you finish eating."

At this time, the chief steward came over and called Li Hu: "Go and fetch some large plates and dishes from the big pot. Let the distinguished guest have some first. Once I shout, everyone in the village will rush over."

"okay."

The chief steward would arrange to serve the big pot of dishes to the guests from Xu Xiong's uncle's side, Liu Xia Lian and others first.

It was a big stew with sauerkraut, vermicelli, tofu and pork. It was fragrant and very delicious.

The chief steward shouted, "The big pot of food is ready, come and eat."

Nearly 200 people who came to help and attend the wedding banquet swarmed over, but the situation was still okay and did not get out of control, at least the big pot was not knocked over.

When Daya and Erya wanted to eat again, all the water used to wash the pot was gone.

Erya came over and acted coquettishly to Liu Xialian: "Sister, I still want to eat."

"Okay, no problem. Li Hu, when are you getting married?"

"It's winter. My new house is being rebuilt. During this period, the craftsmen have gone to build a school. Once the school is finished, my big tiled houses will be built soon."

Liu Xia Lian said, "Er Ya, don't worry. When winter comes and Li Hu gets married, I will arrange in advance and have him cook a pot specially for you."

"No, I want to eat it tomorrow, and I want it to be made by a chef with good cooking skills."
