Siheyuan: Fishing for All Things

Another half month passed.

The weather had turned cold. Although it hadn't snowed yet, frost began to appear everywhere. Wang Yousheng was walking the Qingcong horse that Zhao Er had given to Lin Shaowen outside the door. The village unanimously decided that the horse belonged to Lin Shaowen.

Lin Shaowen didn't care about this at all, and sometimes even forgot to feed it.

This made Wang Yousheng very distressed, so he took over the responsibility of feeding the horse. He would lead the horse for a walk in the village every day, and brushing and feeding it were no problem. He was more thoughtful than serving his son.

Lin Shaowen said several times that he would give him the horse, but he didn't agree.

"Village chief, what are you thinking about?" Zhang Xiaoyu came over.

"I'm thinking... Is the current development speed still a little slow?" Lin Shaowen said, touching his chin.

"It's still slow now?" Zhang Xiaoyu exclaimed, "You've only been here for less than a year, and our village is already the richest village, even Zhaojiatun can't compare to it."

Her shout attracted many village cadres, and even Wang Yousheng, who was walking his horse outside, was startled.

"Village chief, our lives are getting better and better now, so there's no need to be so anxious." Wang Yongnian comforted.

"Yes, village chief... Now the villagers have land and livestock, and their lives are much better than before." Wang Chengyuan also spoke.

"So... you tell Wang Daquan to count the sheep, pick out those sheep that can't give birth, and give each family a sheep during the New Year." Lin Shaowen smiled.

"What? Give a sheep?"

The whole village branch was in an uproar.

That's not a piece of mutton, it's a whole sheep, who dares to think of this?

"We will give one head to each household, but we also need to prevent people from cheating. Let the Party Secretary handle this." Lin Shaowen took out a cigarette, walked around, and then lit one for himself.

"Village Chief, there are hundreds of households in our village. If each household gets one head, the number of sheep in the farm will be reduced by half... This is not appropriate." Wang Yousheng said anxiously.

"Then give half a head?" Lin Shaowen tried, "Anyway, the debt of the farm has been paid off by the income from the brick factory. By the way...should we buy some oxen and give them to the villagers?"

"No, no, no." Wang Yousheng stood up anxiously, "What conditions are there in our village? We still use oxen to plow the fields... Everyone has enough strength, so we can do it ourselves."

"That's not what I meant." Lin Shaowen said seriously, "People can't be used as animals. I still have great use for the people in our village. If they all stay in the fields... then who will help me do other things?"

"Village chief, although life is better now, we still have to tighten our belts." Wang Yousheng said earnestly, "We can't squander money just because we have money now..."

"Okay." Lin Shaowen waved his hand and said, "We'll discuss this later. Call Secretary Zhao and I'll discuss something with him."

"Yeah."

Wang Yousheng responded and started making calls immediately.

In less than two hours.

Zhao Er, who was exhausted from the journey, ran over with the Zhang brothers.

"Brother Lin, what good thing can you do for me?" Zhao Er said with a smile.

"This is really a good thing." Lin Shaowen took out a cigarette and handed it to him, then smiled and said, "I plan to form a caravan... or a purchasing team."

"Oh, what's the plan?" Zhao Er immediately became interested.

"We are going to sell bricks to various places in Changping, I thought about it... In this case, we might as well go to the supply and marketing cooperative to find out the purchase price of agricultural products, and when we come back, we can bring the goods back and make some money." Lin Shaowen said softly, "Now it's winter, many young people are idle at home, why not go out with the car to broaden their horizons."

"Wow."

Almost everyone was stunned.

What's wrong with the village chief's brain? He has an idea every now and then, and they are all good ideas.

"Let's divide the caravan according to the shares of the transport team." Zhao Er said in a deep voice.

"Go to hell." Lin Shaowen laughed and scolded, "We can't let you take advantage again this time. We have 60% of the caravan..."

"No, absolutely not." Zhao Er said angrily, "Don't think I don't know that you were planning to take advantage of my horse team last time. I just gave you face and didn't want to expose you. Don't go too far."

"Go to hell." Lin Shaowen also retorted, "Zhao Er, do you think I don't know? Your horse team can't be maintained. If it weren't for me giving you a bite to eat, your horse team would starve to death. You still want to do transportation, what the hell."

"Lin Shaowen, what you said is not right." Zhao Er blushed and said, "We are a strong team, which is why the transportation team has been slowly built up. I plan to buy more horses next year."

"Let's talk about next year next year. Let's talk about now..."

The two were in the villageThe branch was noisy, leaving Wang Yousheng and others speechless.

Half an hour later.

"Okay, okay, I'll take a step back and split it 50-50, okay?" Lin Shaowen sighed, "It's only because of your care in the past that I'm taking a step back."

"Okay, 50-50, let your accountant make the contract." Zhao Er took a puff of his dry tobacco.

"The cost is also half for each person." Lin Shaowen corrected.

"What do I need from you?" Zhao Er said disdainfully.

"Okay, accountant... make the contract." Lin Shaowen smiled and said, "Secretary, dinner should be more substantial, and I'll have a drink with Secretary Zhao today."

"Okay."

Wang Yousheng responded.

Zhao Er glanced at Lin Shaowen, and then took the Zhang brothers to discuss the contract with Wang Yongnian.

"Huh."

Lin Shaowen breathed a sigh of relief.

"What's wrong? Unsatisfied?" Wang Yousheng came over and said.

"How dare I be dissatisfied? I'm afraid Zhao Er will see it." Lin Shaowen said with a wry smile, "In fact, I would agree if he gave us 20%."

"What do you mean?" Everyone came over.

"You are so stupid. The team is his. Although we have a share, if he doesn't take us with him and they do it without us, can we kill them?" Lin Shaowen rolled his eyes.

"Fuck."

Everyone looked at him in horror.

The other side.

After receiving Lin Shaowen's signal, Wang Yongnian quickly drafted the contract and did not argue too much with Zhao Er on the details. Anyway, he was as easy to talk to as possible.

Zhao Er carefully read the contract and confirmed that there was no problem.

He signed his name and stamped the official seal.

Zhang Tiedan looked at the contract and hesitated.

"Are you holding your egg?" Zhao Er said with a squint.

"No... Secretary, I was just thinking that the price at the supply and marketing cooperative is fixed. As long as we buy the goods at a price lower than the supply and marketing cooperative's price, the fleet will be empty anyway, and this is a sure-win business..." Zhang Tiedan said with a bitter face, "Why should we take them to Qinjia Village?"

Pah!

Zhang Tiedan was slapped hard on the face.

"Why didn't you say it just now?" Zhao Er yelled.

"I... I wanted to say it, but the young doctor glared at me several times. If I dared to interrupt, he would definitely beat me up." Zhang Tiedan said aggrievedly.

"Lin Shaowen, you are cheating me again..."

Zhao Er roared, resounding throughout the village branch.
