Spring Thunder Chapter 0187 Cold Comedy
After coming out from Xian Yaohua’s house after dinner, the slightly tipsy Nan Yi went to the field again.
Inside the field, electric wires and 100-watt incandescent bulbs were suspended in the air, and three Dongfanghong bulldozers were running happily inside.
I saw the raised pieces of land being flattened, and as the bulldozer pushed, blue flames occasionally emerged from the soil.
Not far from Nanyi, there was a bonfire burning, with clay pots placed beside it. The coffin master was putting bones into the pots to make urn coffins.
Ancient tombs were unearthed at construction sites, schools were built on mass graves, and a few skeletons were dug out from farmland. These are all common occurrences and nothing to be surprised about.
The reproduction and development of a village can take hundreds of years or thousands of years, with the ebb and flow of the tide, the setting of the sun and the rise of the moon, the passing of several springs and autumns, and the aging of many people from generation to generation.
There is only one lonely grave thousands of miles away from the Beimang Fortress. How many people can protect the grave?
After standing there and watching for a while, Nan Yi walked to the edge of a black soil hill, grabbed a handful of soil from the pile, and clenched his hands. Immediately, black oily mud flowed out , which looked almost like petroleum.
In the past few years, we didn’t need to apply any fertilizer when growing crops in this soil, as its fertility is excellent.
Wiping the dirt off his hands, Nan Yi continued calculating silently.
This time, 1,700 acres of flat land were laid in a three-stage fallow system, and 1,133 acres could be used to grow rice each year. If well managed, the yield per acre would be 800 catties, and the annual output would be 906,400 catties. Excluding the 15.5% agricultural tax, all other miscellaneous items were paid in money but not grain, leaving 765,908 catties.
There are 2,074 people in the village, and the average person consumes 7 liang of rice a day. If the rice hulling rate is 65%, each person can only get 328 grams a day, leaving a gap of 22 grams per person per day, for a total shortage of 33,000 kilograms of rice.
Nan Yi's calculation is still based on the most optimistic amount. In order to pursue accurate data, the yield per mu has to be lowered, the amount that needs to be submitted has to be raised, and the per capita consumption has to be estimated higher.
Wenchangwei was relatively good, with plenty of oil and water, but there was a lot of work to do every day, most of which was heavy work. Everyone had a big appetite, and both men and women had to eat at least two bowls of rice.
It is not uncommon for growing boys to eat four or five bowls of rice in one meal. Their daily food consumption can reach more than one kilogram.
The current population structure of the village is spindle-shaped, with a large number of young and old people and a large number of middle-aged and young people. When Xian Yaodong and his generation grow old, the village will face an aging population.
By then, there will be more people enjoying welfare and less output from work.
Nan Yi was thinking about it in his mind, and then the next day came, and the village committee gathered for a small meeting again.
"Aunt, I see that the walls in the city are ready to be painted with new slogans. Let's not wait and do it ourselves. I've thought of a few words, and you can find someone to paint the walls.
We will first make a show of it, and when the family planning officer comes, we will treat him to a delicious meal. The dish must include a farting turtle. The turtle should be placed in the middle, and the eggs should be strung together with a string and placed on the side. The turtle's lid should emit a fart when you tap it."
Niu Aihua nodded and said, "Okay, I'll arrange for someone to do it tomorrow."
"Uncle Xian, I suggest that the village pay for a house in Hong Kong, New York, Paris, and Milan. They should be big. Women should be happy when giving birth. Before they go into labor, we should organize them to travel and buy a house so they have a place to live."
"Do we have to go that far? I think we can go to Shangougou or Qiongdao Island."
"Not only because of this, the Cigarette Butts Column is about to meet up. When they meet up, they have to come back to handle the procedures for leaving the country, and then go all the way up along Moscow, from Eastern Europe to Western Europe and Northern Europe, spreading out in a line, Vancouver, San Francisco, Rio de Janeiro...
We need to open clothing wholesale stores in these places and then gradually expand the supply of product categories.
Business is not good in China now, so we are going abroad.
Buying a house is also to establish several bases for them. People are looked down upon when they leave their hometown. Not to mention going abroad, they will be discriminated against even in other cities in the country.
Even if we let these people go, the village cannot just ignore them. We have to help them settle down at their destination.
I will take care of this matter. I will be leaving my job soon and will go out next year to help them find a good lawyer and visit the dock. "
Xian Yaohua asked: "Will the situation be more tense this year?"
"It will probably get even tighter. I think the news in the newspaper is not going in the right direction," Xian Jimin said.
"Why did I keep silent about the opening of the plastics factory? Why did the food factory only focus on hawthorns? Why did the garment factory need to be restructured? Why did it have to deal with rags? Why did it do straw weaving?
These are all forced by the situation. Looking at the current situation, home appliances will be easier to sell in the next few years, but have we done it in Wenchangwei?
Raw materials will be the shackles that restrict our development.
The clothing factory will continue to do export business; the food factory will continue to focus on hawthorn, but will need to increase the number of food R&D personnel.
1. Study the formula of soda;
2. Study the production process of canned fruit;
3. Research snacks made from agricultural and sideline products. For example, radish can be made into dried radish or shredded radish. By adding food seasonings, a variety of flavors that children like can be prepared.
At that time, you can use more catchy names, such as fig, apple pie, and shredded pear. Children are easy to fool because they have never seen many things.
Auntie, please follow up on the radish matter."
Ge Cuizhu: "Okay."
"I have just invited PepsiCo to invest in Shenzhen. According to my estimation, they will invest. Once their investment is completed and their products are launched, our soda can follow up immediately.
This year, if radish products are developed, they can be put on the market immediately; canned fruit is still mainly researched. By the way, both glass bottle and tin can processes need to be studied .
After our canned products are put on the market, the main market is not in the country. "
Xian Yaodong said: "Nan Yi, north?"
"Well, to be exact, it's Eastern Europe. The weather there is cold and the glass bottles will crack. There is also little fruit, so canned fruit will have a big market there. Once we open up the channels, canned fruit will make us Wenchang very rich."
Nan Yi said as he opened his schoolbag and took out a plastic bag of soybean guns. "Uncle Xian, go to the plastic factory and ask for the price. How much does it cost to make this kind of gun?"
Xian Yaodong opened the plastic bag and distributed the soybean guns to everyone. He also started to think about it, "Nan Yi, how do we play with this thing?"
"See the two buckles on top? Buckle them with rubber bands, put a soybean in the chamber, and pull the trigger to fire. It doesn't have much force, so even if it hits your eyes it won't hurt, so it's suitable for children to play with."
Xian Yaodong fiddled with it for a while and asked, "How much can this thing be sold for? Ten cents at most, right?"
"Who said we were going to sell it? The soybean guns are free. You can get a soybean gun for free when you buy snacks. Put a few soybean guns in a big bag of snacks and let the kids pester their parents to buy big bags of snacks."
"Pfft, how many kids are going to get spanked." Xian Weimin couldn't help but say coldly.
As the richest man in Wenchangwei and the nominal holder of Wenchang Investment Holdings, Xian Weimin is eligible to attend village committee meetings from now on.
This is a right as well as an obligation.
The rich first lead the poor to achieve common prosperity.
"It's fine to give it as a gift, but I wonder how much it will cost?"
"That's your business."
"I'll go and consult as soon as possible." Xian Yaodong nodded. "I have something else to say today. Someone in the village proposed to renovate the ancestral hall. I also think it's time to renovate it. What do you think?"
When it came to repairing the ancestral hall, Nan Yi, a person from an outsider, did not participate in the discussion. He just sat there with his eyes closed and rested. When it came time to discuss the money, he just raised his hand to agree.
Even if the final decision was to spend tens of millions to repair the ancestral hall, he would not and could not object.
Fortunately, the final result of the discussion was just renovation, not major changes.
This way, the noise won't be too big.
After the meeting, Nan Yi borrowed Xian Weimin’s bicycle and went to the city again.
He visited supply and marketing cooperatives and department stores, and he keenly noticed that the three major items for marriage were shifting from bicycles, sewing machines and watches to the new three major items of television, washing machines and refrigerators.
The watch counter that was once worshipped is now deserted.
The home appliance craze is about to rise. No matter what you do in the past, you will enter the home appliance industry and engage in the production of home appliances that do not require much technical skills.
In the future, some well-known domestic brands will also be established in the next one or two years.
Home appliances are a good piece of cake, but unfortunately those who want to eat it are all unscrupulous people. Nan Yi gets a headache when thinking about future price wars.
Nan Yi is not very keen on entering the home appliance field. He will wait until a few price wars are over and then analyze the feasibility. If it is feasible, he will establish a home appliance brand and let those that lose out to him manufacture for him.
…
After returning to Xiangkeng, Nan Yi heard Xia Shengnan say that the chickens at home had laid eggs. He hurried to the chicken coop in the corner of the yard to dig out the eggs.
It laid two eggs, both were quite big.
Nan Yi pinched it gently with his hand. The eggshell was soft and the color was wrong. It was too transparent.
Hold up the eggs and look at them through the sunlight. There is no doubt that both are rooster eggs. There is no rooster in the house, so how could it be possible for a hen to lay eggs?
"There were only two eggs. Didn't Ruoyin and the others take any?"
"Yes, only two."
"Tell Mrs. Chen to buy a live rooster tomorrow."
"yes."
After putting the two eggs back into the chicken coop, Nan Yi washed up, changed into clean clothes and went out.
He had an appointment with Zhao Shixian and the time was almost up.
The two met at a Hong Kong-style teahouse, where they could drink tea and fill their stomachs.
They ordered a pot of Pu'er and a pot of Longjing, and some snacks and barbecued pork buns, and sat there eating and chatting.
The two were getting into the groove when the tapping sound of their high heels rang in their ears.
They were sitting in a private room in the corner, with no door, so no one would come over. Nan Yi and Zhao Shixian turned around and saw two women had already stepped into the room.
One is younger and the other is slightly older.
The older man looked to be in his mid-thirties but under forty, wearing a business suit, very ordinary.
The young ones wore gorgeous dresses with coats on the outside and a pair of big sunglasses. They were fashionable and elegant, with a hint of mystery that was deliberately decorated.
The two women walked to the table, and the older woman said to Nan Yi, "Hello, sir. I'm Liang Yun's agent. My name is Wang Huizhu. This is the seat we have reserved. Could you please give up your seat?"
"No need to tell us , just go to the teahouse to negotiate." Zhao Shixian replied directly before Nan Yi opened his mouth.
"Miss, I think I have made it very clear just now. I am Liang Yun's agent, and we have reserved this seat a long time ago. This is also the seat where Liang Yun often sits. Please move aside." Wang Huizhu said with an unhappy look on her face.
Zhao Shixian didn't buy it, "I've made it very clear, I don't know you, I don't know Liang Yun, and before I sat here, no one told me that this seat had been reserved, please don't disturb us, thank you."
Wang Huizhu was angry. She looked Zhao Shixian up and down and said, "I told you, I'm Liang Yun's manager. My name is Wang Huizhu."
"Why? Do you think that you have such a high status that you can scare us away?" Zhao Shixian said with a smile.
"A washing board, so uncivilized."
As soon as Wang Huizhu said this, Zhao Shixian immediately picked up the teacup on the table and splashed the tea on Wang Huizhu's face, "Gossip girl, try to curse again?"
"Bitch, I'm going to fight you."
Wang Huizhu was splashed with water and was furious. She was about to rush forward and fight with Zhao Shixian.
"You won't stop it?"
Nan Yi picked up the teacup, took a sip, stared at Liang Yun and said.
"Sister Wang, forget it."
Liang Yun's voice was quite attractive. While speaking, she took off the big sunglasses she had been wearing, revealing a pretty face.
"Forget it? Liang Yun, you have to remember that you are a big star, you have to be dignified. You don't have to care about these flops who came out of nowhere." Wang Huizhu has entered the rampage mode.
Haha, it’s unlucky for Liang Yun to have such an agent.
After Wang Huizhu taught Liang Yun a lesson, she turned back to Zhao Shixian and said, "Let me tell you, we are waiting for a very powerful boss. If you make him unhappy, be careful to be chopped to death on the street. You little bitch, I will sell you to Kowloon Walled City to pick up customers. You will pick up dozens of hooligans a day..."
