Eating melons

Jiang Qi: "I also just found out about it not long ago. It's because we are both too much of a homebody. The time when we ate the most melons was when we were rubbing corn cobs.

However, although we can buy eggs, we can't buy too many. They are limited and we can only buy the amount we eat. The reason is that the team is also afraid that others will take advantage of us and use the eggs for speculation.

That is collective asset, and a batch is sent to the county purchasing station every week. In fact, the work points of the Red Star Brigade are quite valuable. There are harvests from animal husbandry and farming, and both can be sold for money.

No wonder the people in this brigade are getting more and more motivated and reclaiming more and more wasteland. This is a virtuous cycle!

No wonder the brigade always had educated youth coming every year; the more people, the better! If you couldn't work, you couldn't support yourself anyway, so you had to find a way out on your own. The brigade wouldn't help.

But if there are a few people who can do the work, they can generate income for the brigade and provide labor force!"

Speaking of farming, Wei Wei suddenly thought of the private plots, "Oh, by the way, when are we going to ask the old educated youth about their private plots?

This private plot needs to be opened up to grow vegetables next year. Sigh! I’ve missed out on a billion these past few months! Even if I planted all water spinach, it would still be easier than digging wild vegetables for money.”

Speaking of the private plots, Jiang Qi was also very angry. Four months had been wasted. "Let's not be the first to speak out. Among our group of new educated youth, only you and the old educated youth can say a few words, so don't ask.

Don't worry, there are people who are more anxious than us. Wu Mei is the one who cares the most about this issue, but she certainly won't go alone to ask. Given Yu Xi's personality, he will definitely go and ask. We just have to wait for news."

Wei Wei thought about it and realized that it was indeed the case. "Okay, then let's wait for their news! By the way, what vegetables should we plant next year?"

Jiang Qi: "The water spinach you just mentioned needs to be planted. It can be eaten all the way to winter. Plant more vegetables from the south. The ones from the north can be bought from the team. This way we don't have to buy vegetables from the system mall so often.

The price you charge for goods in this system is quite high, but the selling price is also quite high. This way we can save a lot of money on buying groceries.

Also, you have to write back and ask your sister to send you some vegetable seeds. After all, we don’t know what vegetables are available in the South at this time.”

Wei Wei nodded and said, "I'll write it next time I send her something."

What Wei Wei didn't know was that Wei Wei had already sent her a lot of seeds of various kinds.

Meanwhile, Wu Meijia has been thinking about this matter ever since she heard Liu Aiying say in the morning that the educated youth also had their own private plots.

But she didn't know how to tell the old educated youth. Although their relationship with the old educated youth had eased a lot, it was still a bit stiff.

Among this group of new educated youth, Wei Wei had the best relationship with the old educated youth, and those old educated youth only had a good attitude towards Wei Wei.

She originally thought that Jiang Qi and Wei Wei would go and ask the old educated youth about their private plots.

But Wei Wei seemed to be only a little angry at the beginning, and then seemed to have forgotten about it.

This is normal. After all, Wei Wei is rich and has no shortage of these things. Maybe even if she has land, she would be too lazy to farm it.

The anger before was just because I felt that I was deceived and treated like a fool. Isn’t that what Liu Jiaojiao thought?

But she couldn't do that. She had to ask clearly about the private plot. She needed that piece of land. And looking at the private plots of Aunt Liu and Aunt Zhao, if she cultivated the land, she wouldn't have to buy vegetables anymore.

Maybe it can be sold for a lot of money. Not to mention others, Liu Jiaojiao and Yu Xi will definitely buy it, and Wei Wei and the others should also buy it.

After all, the two of them don't look like they are working people, and if she grows vegetables, it would be closer and more convenient to buy them from her than to go to Aunt Liu's house.

So she had to find out more about the private plot, but she couldn't just go up and ask by herself foolishly, she had to find someone to go with her.

As for who to look for, it must be Yu Xi, because she is not familiar with the three new male educated youth, Li Zhibin and Xiao Xuemu.

They didn't pay much attention to her. She saw that Li Zhibin and Xiao Xuemu had sent meat to Wei Wei and Jiang Qi, but no one from this side had ever sent any meat.

So I could only find Yu Xi. Yu Xi didn't have much opinion on whether there was a private plot or not. He might not plant it even if there was one.

So we must strike while the iron is hot, and take advantage of the fact that he has some opinions about the old educated youth hiding the fact that they have their own private plots, and let him go to their house and ask.

Wu Mei was thinking about a lot of things. When the meal was ready, Liu Jiaojiao and Yu Xi came over.

At the dinner table, Wu Mei glanced at Liu Jiaojiao and Yu Xi. "Yu Zhiqing, Jiaojiao, should we ask the old educated youth about their private plots? We can't just let them farm our land forever!"

Upon hearing this, Liu Jiaojiao was furious. "They bullied us right after they arrived, and now they're even occupying our land. Isn't this obviously bullying us?"

Yu Xi's face wasn't very good either. Although he didn't care about that little bit of money, it didn't mean he liked being treated as a fool or a scapegoat. "After dinner, I'll go ask about how our private plots are being handled."

Wu Mei breathed a sigh of relief when she heard Yu Xi's words. With Yu Xi's help, their private plots should be safe.

After dinner, Yu Xi came to the door. Of course, he was not a stupid person. Instead of going directly to question, he found Shenyang, the person in charge of the educated youth.

When Yu Xi arrived, the old educated youth had just finished their meal, and some of those who ate slowly were still eating.

Yu Xi didn't go in, but knocked twice on the gate. "Brother Shen, do you have time? I have something to ask you."

Shen Yang didn't expect that Yu Xi was looking for him, so he hurried out, fearing that this group of new educated youth would cause trouble.

He was the head of the educated youth institute. Even if these new educated youth did not live with them, they were still educated youth. If they caused trouble, he would be held jointly responsible.

Shenyang: "Is there something wrong, Yu Zhiqing?"

Yu Xi: "It's like this. Today I heard from the aunt of the aunt in the team that we educated youth also have private plots. Do we, the new educated youth, have them too?"
