1994: Vegetable farmers strike back

Chapter 95 I, a small vegetable farmer!

"You'll know in the afternoon."

"You should have ten thousand, right?"

"Have."

"Twelve thousand?"

"..."

"Fifteen thousand?"

Chen Jiazhi simply ignored him. The two puppies had already run to the front, one black and one white, with a strong body. They ran back to the cement dam in a few seconds and then lay down in a cool place.

The sun is very strong.

Some vegetable farmers have been back for a while.

Some were repairing tools, some were chatting and smoking, but they all sat outside the house, looking in the same direction.

There, women gathered together, washing clothes in basins and buckets. They rolled up their sleeves and trouser legs, wearing cool clothes. When they bent over, their millstone-sized buttocks became round.

Some women are very bold and sometimes deliberately show a deep cleavage on their chest.

Seeing Chen Jiazhi coming back with the sprayer on his back, someone called out, "Scholar, put down the radio for a moment."

Chen Jiazhi: "Okay, wait a minute, Brother Yi, please hold the radio. I reek of pesticides."

Li Xiu was also at home, but she was busy cooking at the back door of her second sister's house, and the door was locked.

Yi Dinggan: "Okay, listen to the radio for a while, and then have two bottles of beer at noon so that you can sleep well."

Chen Jiazhi: "We agreed to quit drinking, and I have to go to the bank to deposit money this afternoon. I think it's time to change my car soon."

Yi Dinggan: “…”

If Jiazhi could have as much food as yesterday every day, no, only half, then he would feel confident of buying a new car by the end of the month.

Li Mingkun and Guo Mancang, who were sitting at the door, also heard the conversation between the two.

"Save money? Where do you save money?"

Chen Jiazhi: "Bank, do you want to go with me? There's an Agricultural Bank credit union in Dashi Town, not far away."

When they heard it was a bank, Li Mingkun and Guo Mancang stopped smoking.

"Oh, I won't go. I don't have much money at home."

Yi Dinggan: "Where's the full warehouse?"

"I don't have much money, so I'm not going."

Nowadays, few vegetable farmers have the habit of depositing money in banks, and the fees for withdrawing money from other places and across banks are also very high.

In addition, vegetable farmers generally do not have much savings, so most of them just hide the money at home.

Li Mingkun and Guo Mancang should have some savings, but not much, so they don't want to make trouble.

Yi Dinggan: "Okay, then Jiazhi and I will go. Sales have been pretty good recently. It's safer to put the money in the bank~"

Li and Guo: "..."

Chen Jiazhi opened the lock, Yi Dinggan took the radio, and he took the clothes and bucket to wash. His body was full of the smell of pesticides, and he felt very uncomfortable if he didn't wash.

A woman shouted, "Scholar, why is no one competing with you today?"

Chen Jiazhi turned his head and saw a fellow villager named Wu Qin. Her husband's surname was Li. They lived in the same village as Chen Jiazhi, and their houses were separated by a few paddy fields.

He is related to Li Xiu's family and their relationship is pretty good.

It’s just that Wuqin is a bit reckless.

Once she made a bet with other women, asking if they dared to take off their pants in front of men. She said that others would not dare but she would, and then she actually did it.

At that time, Chen Jiazhi was shocked by her beauty.

Although he didn't grow vegetables anymore, he will be remembered by many vegetable farmers for the rest of his life.

Her character is very heroic to men.
At this moment,
Seeing that she had attracted Chen Jiazhi's attention, Wu Qin also bent down and scrubbed the clothes diligently, and the bottom of her round-necked shirt was immediately visible.

When Chen Jiazhi turned his head, he saw this scenery.

After a pause of only a second, Chen Jiazhi withdrew his gaze and hurried into the bathroom.

Shit, trying to seduce me again~
The loud laughter of Wu Qin and others could also be heard outside the house.

"Hahahaha... I told you, the scholar is still very young~"

"Maybe he was panicking."

"It's just that people are not as white as before, and not as attractive as before."

"That's nothing. They make a lot of money. Four or five thousand a night, that's not much worse than the big bosses in the city."

Wu Qin was surprised and asked, "How do you know he can earn so much in one night?"

"You didn't get up this morning, so you didn't see how much vegetables the scholar had. His tricycle was full and still couldn't be loaded. He even used his bicycle to load two or three hundred kilograms. That's at least fourteen or five hundred kilograms of vegetables. Vegetables are 3 yuan per kilogram now. How much do you think he can sell them for?!"

"Gee, that's four or five thousand a night. No wonder they just said they were going to save money."

“How much does this have to save?”

...

In the summer vegetable market, news spreads fastest at noon because everyone is at home.

Not surprisingly,

Chen Jiazhi's family has become the focus again.

Whether it is customers making way in the market and rushing to grab food, or earning four or five thousand yuan in one night, it is all talked about with relish.

When they heard the songs coming from the radio, every family was upset. It had only been more than two months, but everything in the vegetable market had changed.

Some people left in frustration,

Some people soar into the sky.

inside the house,

Before the game of chess was over, Yi Dinggan started scratching his head again. He only breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Chen Jiafang coming with a vegetable basin and started to shuffle the chess pieces.

"Eat, eat first, I'm already starving."

Chen Jiazhi laughed and said, "I can't stand losing, Brother Yi."

Yi Dinggan quickly put away the chess pieces and chessboard. "You are too insidious. Let me think about it for two days, and then I will deal with you."

"Okay, I'll wait for you."

After a while, the dishes were served, and when everyone was present, the meal began.

For lunch, we had boiled fish with pickled cabbage and tofu, which tasted very good.

Li Xiu picked up the tenderest piece of meat from the fish belly and gave it to Chen Jiazhi: "Eat this, it's delicious."

Chen Jiazhi said, "Eat it."

Li Xiu's eyebrows curved: "Give me a piece of fish head, I want to eat fish head."

"Okay, give me your bowl." Chen Jiazhi had already seen the fish head and put it into Li Xiu's bowl.

Seeing the two of them like this, Yi Ding said sourly, "Wow, it shouldn't be like this, Jiafang, hurry up and get me a fish head too, or I won't have any to eat later."

"If you want to eat it, can't you just pick it up yourself? Don't you have hands? Why do you have to ask me to pick it up for you?"

Cursing, Chen Jiafang still handed the other fish head to Yi Dinggan, who then gave Chen Jiafang a piece of fish meat. "I can do it myself."

"That's different. Li Xiu and Jia Zhi are showing their affection, so we can't lose."

Chen Jiazhi really didn't expect this to be the reason, but his second sister didn't refuse and just started eating.

They had a very satisfying meal and chatted for a while after the meal. They agreed on a time to go to the bank to deposit money. Then Chen Jiazhi took the radio and went back to his house with Li Xiu.

After closing the door, Li Xiu asked softly, "Jiazhi, how much do you want to save?"

"Sixteen thousand, I'll go deposit it again in the next few days."

"okay."

In fact, Chen Jiazhi didn't want to deposit the money in the bank, but he had nowhere to spend the money for the time being.

There is no need to invest heavily in the land.

It’s still a bit early to change cars.

We can consider expanding the scale~
But the weather in their area has been good recently. Although there was heavy rain on June 6.18, the Dongxiang vegetable market was not flooded, and the losses suffered by other vegetable farmers were only reduced production.

Instead, it will benefit from flooding in other areas and rising vegetable prices.

There are also people who are willing to transfer their vegetable plots.
But it is not easy to get one as they are not among their fellow Sichuan and Chongqing people.

He doesn't know much about other investments except buying houses.

It would be too much of a concern if I kept it at home.

Now everyone knows that he has cash at home.
So it’s better to deposit it in the bank first, even if it’s only for a month, it’s still deposit, and then you can see how to spend the money later.

Suddenly, he thought of the insect net.

There are already more and more pests and diseases now, and the more time passes, the greater the role of insect-proof nets will be.

Especially in July and August,

After a typhoon, the biggest harm is the pests and diseases it brings.

I could add some insect nets.
After the discussion, Li Xiu took out the 9500 yuan he had kept before, as well as the 6800 yuan he had saved over the past two days, intending to check again.

Chen Jiazhi fiddled with the radio and listened to the news.

Noon is also the time when news broadcasts are more concentrated, and it didn't take long for him to find the information he wanted.

The impact of the Beijiang River dike collapse is still ongoing.

The Guangqing Expressway and Beijiang shipping are still under emergency repair and may take two or three days to resume.

Many houses in Panyu were also flooded, dikes broke, and dikes slipped, but the area of ​​farmland flooded was very small.

Chen Jiazhi feels that the impact seems to be smaller than imagined?

But I didn’t think much about it.

The worst that can happen is that there will be rain later~
Based on the current growth rate and prices of the vegetables in his field, the expected income from his crops is already very high.

After listening for a while, Chen Jiazhi took out his notebook and reviewed the results of the early morning battle.

About 1550 kilograms of vegetables.

More than 100 kilograms more than the Dragon Boat Festival.

The total amount of Chinese cabbage was about 1070 kilograms, which was less than the amount for the Dragon Boat Festival, but the amount of amaranth was at least 440 kilograms.

Even though he already knew this, Chen Jiazhi couldn't help but sigh again at the tenacity of his vegetable workers.
A total of about 1103 kilograms of amaranth were harvested from 0.3 mu of amaranth in Plot No. 3.

It is already an extremely high output.

The high yield is not only due to a good foundation, but also because the vegetables grow tall and thick in the later stage. Although the vegetables are a bit old, not many people care about this in the current market environment.

As for amaranth, Chen Jiazhi only intends it to be a supplement and not the main ingredient.

Amaranth has a shorter growth period than choy sum. It's okay to try it occasionally as a supplement, but the long-term benefits won't be as good as choy sum.
The harvest season for loofah and bitter melon is also coming to an end.

"By the way, Xiu, when you cut the loofah and bitter melon today, remember to save the seeds~"

"Didn't you say that seed preservation is a two-person thing? I can't do it alone. You should go with me to choose."

"..."

Very good, this reason is very strong and he cannot refuse. From the perspective of human physiology, preserving offspring is indeed a matter between two people.

"Okay, then when you cut the loofah, just call me. There aren't many left."

I wonder if the melons chosen by two people will be better?
Probably so.

He and Li Xiu are both top-notch handsome men and beautiful women, so the melons they choose will be blessed~
After reviewing the amount of food served, he looked at the customer situation again. The usual customers were still there, and some occasional customers had also arrived.

The order volume after the holiday is not large, but the advantage is that there are many orders.

Several major customers are also very stable.

It is conceivable that this time the customers’ impression will be further deepened: Chen Cai Nong is very stable and long-lasting.

Even if there may be some obstacles in the process, people will still come to him to get food.

The customer base has been consolidated.

not bad.

After reading it, he put the notebook back into his bag, then took out the book "Guangdong Agricultural Science" and took a look at it.

The book has been basically torn to pieces, and I will go to talk to Boss Hong more often when I have time.

With the baptism of knowledge, Chen Jiazhi also fell asleep smoothly.
...

Four hours later.

The sun was blocked by clouds and the air was very hot.

Yi Dinggan, with a bag hanging on his chest and leaning on his bicycle, urged impatiently.

"Jiazhi, can you please hurry up? Why would you hesitate to get some money?"

"Here it comes, here it comes, don't rush it."

Chen Jiazhi felt that the bag he bought was too small. Sixteen thousand yuan might not seem like a lot if it were in hundred-yuan bills.

But most of his money was in small change.

Even with the notebook out, the bag was still stuffed full.

Yi Dinggan looked at his bag, then looked at what he had bought two days ago, then silently rode his bike to lead the way. It was still quite troublesome for Jiazhi to get the money.

The rural credit cooperative in the town was not far away, and the two of them arrived in just ten minutes by bike.

到了柜台后，陈家志先是把一小叠50元，和一小叠100元钞票拿了出来，然后又在柜台职员的目光中掏出一摞又一摞1元、2元、5元、10元的钞票出来~
The attractive female teller looked him over and asked, "What do you do?"

Chen Jiazhi smiled. "Me? I'm a small vegetable farmer in Dongxiang Village. It's normal for a small vegetable farmer to have more small change, right?"

"Well, it's been a long time, right?"

"It's been quite a long time."

"When you have money in the future, you can save it earlier. You don't need to save so much. Should you deposit it in a fixed deposit or a current account?"

"Current account~"

Yi Dinggan deposited the money first and waited not far away. He felt that the bank clerk was also judging him based on his appearance.
