"According to what you said last time, I went to the village committee compound to approve the note and asked for the land on the river beach."

In the small courtyard of the Tang family in Xinmin Village, Tang Wei'an placed a certificate issued by the village party secretary in front of Tang Shu. Tang Shu picked it up and looked at it, but he still felt that it was not safe. The certificate did indicate the area of ​​the river beach and the

The right to use it belongs to Tang Wei'an, but if the profits generated from this land make the villagers jealous in the future, this kind of certificate is like a piece of waste paper, which is hard to even wipe the butt.

After thinking carefully for a moment, Tang Shu looked at the sky and guessed that the village party secretary had not yet gotten off work at this time.

"Let's go to the village committee compound, and I'll talk to the party secretary."

When I arrived at the compound and entered the village office, Zhang Guocai, the party secretary, had not left yet: "Your boy has been very diligent recently. What's the matter? He's quitting his job in the city?"

It was originally just a joke. Zhang Guocai wanted to take the opportunity to teach young people not to run around idle and affect his job. Unexpectedly, Tang Shu replied without thinking: "Yes, I quit and plan to come back."

I am partnering with my second uncle to farm, so I am here to discuss the land on the riverbank with you."

"What? Quit?" Zhang Guocai was completely shocked by Tang Shu's answer. He didn't recover for a long time. "You're quitting the iron job provided by the country? You little bastard is really a bastard. Why?

Go back to the village to farm? What do you think? If your grandfather and your father find out, I'm sure they will all be pissed off by you again."

Tang Shu grew up in Xinmin Village. Everyone thought that he was an honest kid. How come he has become so unreliable in just a few years? The city is not a good place after all. Even a good kid can learn bad things.

.

"You must be lucky that you are not my grandson, otherwise I would break your legs."

As for the details of his resignation, Tang Shu didn't want to say more, and just let Party Secretary Zhang point his finger at him and scold him. In terms of seniority, Zhang Guocai was the same generation as his grandfather, so it was okay to scold him.

But when he faced his second uncle's eyes, which were as wide as copper bells, and seemed to be mixed with bloodshot eyes, it seemed that if he were not in the village committee compound, he would definitely be killed. Tang Shu was really shocked.

Thinking about explaining to him slowly later, he simply stopped looking at Tang Wei'an and waited until Zhang Guocai had scolded him enough. Then he said with a regretful smile: "That's what happens in the city. It's not as comfortable as in the countryside. I'm coming back this time."

I just want to do something in our village and get some land on the riverbank..."

Zhang Guocai glanced sideways at Tang Shu, his face full of disdain: "Didn't your uncle tell you about this before? I also approved the note. Your uncle cleared the land. Of course he can use it. There is no need to do this.

Things have to go twice."

As early as 1973, Yuan Lao, known as the contemporary god of grain, led a team to overcome the problem of breeding hybrid rice. With the implementation of the policy of dividing fields to households and the blessing of fine rice seeds, grain output has increased.

It has been greatly improved, and there will no longer be the tragic scene of people starving to death due to lack of food.

With surplus food at home, rural people's demand for land will decrease accordingly. This does not mean that they will voluntarily give up the land allocated to their families, but that villagers generally do not care too much about the wasteland that no one cares about.

Go take care of it.

Therefore, when they saw the land that Tang Wei'an was reclaiming on the river beach a few days ago, most people responded with a mocking attitude, thinking that Tang Wei'an was crazy about money and thought that he could make a fortune by planting more land. A few people knew about his family's situation.

Many people expressed sympathy, but from beginning to end, no one came to Tang Wei'an and told him that this land belongs to the public and you can't plant it.

Regarding Tang Shu's visit again, Zhang Guocai felt that they were just taking off their pants and farting, but Tang Shu did not think it was unnecessary: ​​"Although this land was cleared by my second uncle, it still belongs to Xinmin Village after all. This is what belongs to the public."

We felt really uneasy about giving it to us for private use, but the country's land cannot be bought or sold privately, so I thought of a comprehensive way, that is, we rent this land from the village for five yuan a year.

, during the lease period, the right to use this land belongs to me, do you think that’s okay?”

Zhang Guocai took a puff of his dry pipe, with impatience written all over his face: "You kid, are you worried because you have too much money? Although your registered permanent residence is no longer in the village, I finally watched you grow up, so I can take you in.

Money? Get out of here quickly, don’t delay my get off work.”

"Favours are favors, cooperation is cooperation, brothers are still settling accounts, the village must accept the money."

Zhang Guocai never expected that Tang Shu would be so stubborn and insisted on making him sign the lease agreement. In desperation, he had no choice but to ask his accountant to come over and draft a new agreement, which stated that the river beach area was two acres and seventy acres.

It was leased to Tang Shu starting from August 1983. The lease period is five years and the annual rent is RMB 5 yuan.

I thought that Tang Shu would settle accounts every year, but to my surprise, this boy took out twenty-five yuan and put it on his desk. He looked like a wealthy landlord before liberation, and Zhang Guocai wanted to go up and hit him on the head.

After walking out of the village committee compound, Tang Shu was still kicked by Tang Wei'an: "Tell me, why did you resign? Do you know that your father and my eldest brother finally crawled out of the dead in Shangganling?

After changing to a city registered permanent residence and a stable job, you don’t want it even if you say you don’t want it? Are you worthy of him?”

Being scolded by his second uncle, Tang Shu was also stunned on the spot. He never thought that his father, whom he had never met before, was actually a glorious soldier who entered the dynasty. This made him feel awe.

.

After a patient explanation, Tang Wei'an reluctantly accepted Tang Shu's reason for resigning. Although the job was hard-won, he couldn't bear to see his nephew being bullied: "Now that you have no job, have you ever thought about what will happen in the future?"

OK. Do you really plan to come back to farm?"

"There is nothing wrong with farming. I still say the same thing. As long as you do what I want, uncle, I guarantee that you can earn an extra three hundred yuan a year."

Tang Wei'an lowered his head and walked back with deep thoughts.

There is no way out from this situation now, so we can only treat the situation like a dead horse.

"Tomorrow I will quickly plant all the vegetables collected in the past two days. When they grow in a few months, I will sell them. At least they will provide me with an income."

Having said that, Tang Wei'an felt like he was going to be too worried to sleep. Not to mention that there was no shortage of seasonal vegetables right now. Even if he wanted to transport them out of the village, it would be troublesome. He had to transport them to the ferry first, then get on the ferry, and then get to the other side.

, and then transport it to the city. This round trip takes too much time.

"Second uncle, don't make your own decisions. You must not plant seeds now. Wait until I am ready."

What a joke, if you grow vegetables and sell them at this time, you will end up with piles of vegetables waiting to be fed to pigs.

Tang Wei'an didn't understand what Tang Shu said: "If you don't plant it now, why would you spend so much money renting that land?"

"We'll wait until October."

"October?" Tang Wei'an laughed angrily at Tang Shu, who had no knowledge about farming. "If you don't understand, don't say these things that make people laugh. Plant cucumbers and eggplants in October? Don't say that these vegetables cannot be beaten by frost. The seeds can't be beaten by frost."

There will be no seedlings left in the ground."

Planting summer vegetables in winter? Did he hear it wrong or was Tang Shu crazy?

"Second uncle, you are right this time. I just want to grow off-season vegetables in this land."

What? Tang Wei'an was completely confused by this matter. This was completely against the laws of nature.

Completely ignoring Tang Wei'an's astonishment, Tang Shu encouraged him about the prospect of off-season vegetables.

"Second uncle, think about it. Our vegetables will be planted in October and they will definitely mature in the twelfth lunar month. We will sell them at the end of the year and everyone can have a taste. Do you think our vegetable business is exclusive? Are we still worried about whether we can sell it?

Are you worried about making money when you go out?"

"That's true." Tang Wei'an still felt that this matter was unimaginable, "but the key to the problem is that it is impossible for us to make those vegetables mature."

You must know that seasonal vegetables have requirements for light, temperature, and humidity. The temperature difference between winter and summer is so large. How can summer vegetable seeds break out of the ground in an environment where the temperature remains around zero?
