Rebirth in 1970: I work as an educated youth in a forestry farm

Sheng Xiping also scanned the prices of other items and suddenly discovered that the prices of medicinal materials such as gastrodia elata, fritillary, asarum, etc. here were higher than those in the forest farm.

It's normal when you think about it. If someone from the forest farm comes down for a visit, it will take two days before they can go back.

Food, accommodation and other expenses in the middle are all expenses. If it is just to sell Gastrodia elata, it is really not cost-effective.

The forest farm's purchasing station is busy for a while, why can't we make some money from it?

"Comrade, please weigh the copper." Sheng Xiping handed over the broken copper he brought and asked the salesperson to weigh it.

Although the salesperson's attitude was not very good, his actions were not slow.

I took the scrap copper and looked at it carefully. They were all very clean.

"Where did you get these coppers?" the salesperson asked casually. "It wasn't stolen, was it?"

"No, no, we are from a forest farm, and the school calls on the children to pick up scrap metal, as long as it is iron and not copper.

The children knocked the copper parts off the scrap metal and saved them. "

It's reasonable for people to ask this. Sheng Xiping naturally has nothing to be annoyed about, just tell the truth.

The other party just went through the process and asked. Sheng Xiping's answer was reasonable and reasonable, so they didn't care.

So he took it and checked it on the scale, and shouted at the other side.

In addition, the person wrote down something and how much it weighed in the ledger, and then he made a calculation and calculated the price.

After finishing the calculation, they wrote a note to Sheng Xiping, and Sheng Xiping went to another place to withdraw money based on the note.

A total of four pounds of brass, two and a half pounds of copper, sixty-two yuan.

"It's really a lot. I didn't expect the price of copper to be so high.

I also have three or four kilograms of broken copper at home, waiting for it to come down again, and I will take it with me to sell it. "

After leaving the acquisition station, Wang Jianshe couldn't help but talk.

In fact, life in the forest area is very secluded. Many people may live in the forest area for decades and only come out only a handful of times.

The forest farm purchasing station does not accept scrap copper or iron, and no one who comes to Songjianghe would bother to inquire about it.

So I don’t know if the price of copper is high, it’s normal.

"Well, just sell it, and don't tell your siblings how much it cost later.

Otherwise, I'm afraid that those naughty kids from each family could steal the copper. "

This is not very possible, but certain.

Those naughty kids in the forest farm are all very bold. If they know that copper is so valuable and they have that naughty kid in their custody, they dare to go to the farm to steal copper.

It’s better to avoid this kind of thing as much as possible.

When Wang Jianshe heard this, he opened his mouth in surprise. He was about to say no, right?

But in his mind, he remembered that a while ago, the school asked him to hand over scrap metal, and his brother went to remove the spikes on the railway roadbed.

The school gives them tasks and only gives them verbal praise at most. These children can think about everything like crazy.

If you knew the value of copper, you might not know what you could do.

This is no joke. Once caught by the public, the shame will be light, and the parents' work may also be implicated.

"Yes, yes, you should be careful. There is nothing these bears don't dare to do."

Wang Jianshe came to his senses and nodded.

"Don't talk about others, we did the same thing when we were kids, it's the same."

Sheng Xiping smiled. Who didn’t do shopping when they were young? They all came from that time.

In these days, it is not easy for adults to make money. They want to split a penny in half and spend it, not to mention the money in the hands of children, who can't even see the shadow of money.

Anyone who knows a little bit about how to make money would be eager to make money.

Otherwise, why would Sheng Xiping be jumping up and down the mountain with his master to hunt?

Isn't that because hunting not only provides meat for eating, but also makes money?

Furs of various animals, bear bile, deer antlers, musk, what is not money?

There are many young men of the same age in Maekuan Forest Farm. Why can Sheng Xiping become the leader of these people?

Isn't it because he has the ability to occasionally make some delicious food for everyone to share?

Wang Jianshe thought about it and immediately laughed.

The two chatted and laughed and returned to the railway. Others came over to inquire about the price of the scrap copper.

Sheng Xiping did not hide the price, but he also told them what he had just said.

When those people heard this, they all nodded, "Well, it does make sense."

Boys can do all kinds of mischief in the mountains and rivers, but they must not sneak around. This is a matter of principle.

While they were talking and laughing, the car drove back from a distance, and everyone had almost rested, so they all stood up and started working.

There were about ten people on both sides, so they naturally worked quickly. After a while, all the firewood on the trolley was cleared and loaded into the car.

Sheng Xiping and others all climbed onto the car and put chainsaws, oil drums and other things on top.

Then the driver drove back, pulling a cart full of firewood and people.

Zhou Mingyuan's family lives in Baishan Street. When Zhou Mingyuan and Wang Chunxiu were transferred here, their work unit helped rent a house.

The small courtyard with three rooms is not big. There is an alley to the east, and it connects to another house on the west end.

There is nothing in the yard. There are firewood sheds on both sides of the gate, and a row of warehouses built on garden sticks at the east end.

There is a ditch running east-west in the middle of the courtyard, mainly to prevent heavy rains in summer and deep water from soaking the house.

Of course, when I usually wash clothes or something, I just pour water directly into the ditch. It happened that the water flowed eastward into the ditch outside the yard.

The alleys in the family's residential area are not wide. Cars can barely get in, but it is inconvenient to unload firewood.

Therefore, the firewood can only be unloaded at the entrance of the alley, and then slowly poured into it.

Sheng Xiping took a look and saw that the first load of firewood was already a huge pile. If he unloaded another load, there would really be no place to put it.

It will also block the alley, making it impossible for others to leave.

"Brothers, let's go down first, use a chain saw to cut up the car just now and dump it inside, make some room, and then unload the car."

When Sheng Xiping saw this, he jumped out of the car and arranged for people to clean up first.

"Yes, yes, let's use a chain saw to cut these out first."

Wang Jianshe and others also jumped out of the car, and without saying a word, started the chain saw and started sawing firewood.

They have all been working in forest farms for two or three years. In fact, they have done many types of work and can do any job they pick up.

So Wang Jianshe and Sheng Xiping took a chain saw and started sawing firewood, and some of the others took the sawed wood pieces and piled them at the door of Zhou's house.

Some people also picked out good wood from the firewood and carried it directly to the Zhou family's yard.

There is a lot of good wood in these corrugated foundations. People who live at home may not be able to use it at any time, but they cannot all be used as firewood and saws. That would be a pity.

After all, there are more people than strength, and the chain saw works quickly. It didn't take long to clear up most of the pile of firewood on the ground.

At this time, Gao Haining and others climbed into the car and began to unload the wood.

"Xiping, you all stay away and be careful not to hit me."

Before starting work, I didn't forget to tell the people below to stay away a little bit.
