While listening to their chat, long Jianhua sipped wine and ate large pieces of meat. He was fat and thin.

    From time to time, Chen Lisheng wanted to go out to sell meat. As for borrowing money from the team, he didn''t mention it later. He just discussed with them how to plan to find herbs in the future.

    Slowly, their thoughts began to clear. Some women trample on the fields and turn over sweet potatoes at home, and the rest go to the back of the mountain to find medicinal materials. There are primitive secondary forests, which are boundless and should be many.

    After eating, long Jianhua came to the eaves and saw Chen Lisheng''s four children sitting in the kitchen with a bowl of pig blood each. In the corner, there was a small pile of Houttuynia cordata.

    Chen Daniu, who came out later, looked up at the sky, "it seems that there is no rain today..."

    Chen Lishi then said, "twenty four autumn tigers, sad."

    Chen Lisheng shouted, "Jianhua, where do you want?"

    Long Jianhua went to the door panel, "as long as there is oil, anywhere is OK. If you have streaky pork, you have to sell me some suet. "

    "I''d better cut it all... Three ribs or five? You have no place to put more. "

    "There''s not half left, okay?"

    "There''s nothing wrong with money. Today, I kill pigs. After a while, others will kill pigs and return them. "

    "Five dollars, then. Brother Lisheng, do you have a small jar at home? "

    "Jar... No! No one has much of that. "

    There is no jar. It seems that I have to buy it myself.

    Chen Lisheng cut off five pieces of rib meat, hung it on the scale and weighed it, twelve Jin, sixty-two, five yuan, sixty-seven cents. He gave the number written on the gun paper to long Jianhua for confirmation.

    Very rigorous

    Long Jianhua hurried home with the meat, hung it on the wall, and quickly turned over the Clematis.

    At the assembly site, Chen Daniu arranged today''s work:

    In the morning, fifteen strong men in the team went to pay public food, and Chen Daniu led the team. The ninth team has 23 mu of paddy field and needs to pay 2300 Jin; Now we have collected early rice and handed in half first. The rest continued to pull Houttuynia cordata along yesterday''s route, led by Chen Lisheng.

    In the afternoon, Chen Lisheng and Wang Yuhua took people to sell Houttuynia cordata, while the others continued to pull Houttuynia cordata and isatis root.

    Yesterday afternoon, everyone only went back and forth twice, and the distance was not very far.

    After yesterday''s position, the group continued to move forward. The second time forward, there was only Houttuynia cordata on both sides of the river, and isatis root was very rare.

    Some people walk in the river, others walk along the embankment.

    Soon after entering a gentle River, Wang Yuhua laughed loudly, "Hey, come and have a look. A stone bed here is better than a wooden bed at home as long as it is padded with straw."

    Pan Guange said with a smile, "you mean you won''t shake it? That''s because you two exert too much force and will shake the bed apart sooner or later. "

    Wang Yuhua smiled and scolded, "pan Guange, I didn''t expect you to be so bad. Did you two do that on the ground in order not to shake the bed apart? You know, the ground will crack. When the ground cracked, the house fell apart, but more than one went. "

    When they heard the two bickering like this, the others came together happily, listened to the two talking about meat jokes and looked at the stone bed by the river with a smile.

    Long Jianhua also crowded into the crowd to watch the stone bed. This stone is a whole bluestone, three inches above the water, as if it had grown from the embankment; The top is flat and the bottom is inclined into the water. It is five feet long and three feet wide, and the upstream end is only one foot wide. On the riverbank, there happened to be a bush extending out, completely covered with bluestones, which could shade from the sun. If you really lie here and listen to the river with only a slight sound, it will be a wonderful enjoyment.

    Zou Shuxian pointed to the bottom of the stone bed, "there''s a fish there. It''s brave to see so many of us not running. "

    A four inch long fish lay under the stone bed, with its mouth open and closed, its tail swinging and its eyes motionless. At the bottom of the water, there are several small snails.

    "Wordy snail, isn''t it just this kind of small snail?"

    Long Jianhua is like discovering the new world. This is another kind of meat.

    Pan Guange squatted down and grabbed the fish in the water with both hands; I saw its tail swing and disappear.

    People laughed and laughed that she had exceeded her ability and wanted to catch fish empty handed.

    After sitting on the stone bed, everyone began to work. Long Jianhua really lay on it and experienced it. Except for the cool, it is hard and uncomfortable... It should be OK to lay a layer of straw.

    After walking this flat River, you can see the production team in front. The group didn''t move forward and turned back to go home; After turning over the Houttuynia cordata and isatis root yesterday and the first one today, Chen Lisheng announced that the work was over.

    Long Jianhua ate so much meat and two nights of pig blood in the morning and drank a cup of sweet wine. Now he doesn''t feel hungry.

    When I got home, I looked at a mess of Clematis, "there should be something to do."

    Go to the terrace and try to choose the most dry one and pick it out; There were a lot of results, but they were all small.

    Bundle a bundle, try the weight, and then bundle a bundle of about the same weight. Carry it and go to the supply and marketing cooperative.

    Whether we can improve our life is in one fell swoop.

    Long Jianhua is closer to the canyon mouth than other residents in the team, because he can go down directly along the ridge without turning left or right in the terrace.

    The first time in life is worth looking forward to, especially the current situation of long Jianhua. So he carried a load of Houttuynia cordata, changed his shoulders at the mouth of the canyon, and then hurried all the way. He didn''t feel that his shoulders were uncomfortable and his body couldn''t hold up. When he entered the supply and marketing cooperative, he only felt his mouth dry and his legs shaking.

    The supply and marketing cooperative is a large room three feet long and two feet wide, separated by a group of L-shaped counters. There are rows of shelves in front of the wall opposite the door, and on the right are pots and pans on the ground; There is a door on the left, which is the warehouse of purchased goods.

    Enter the gate and there is no one inside. He put the Clematis on the ground and approached the counter. Only then did he see a young fat man lying on the bamboo recliner with his eyes closed. He had not found his arrival. He retreated to the Clematis and coughed twice.

    The fat man sat up from the couch and rubbed his eyes. "What do you buy?"

    Long Jianhua cleared his throat. "Comrade, I want to sell Clematis. How much is a kilo?"

    "Seventy six cents." The fat man stood up slowly without expression, raised his right hand and pointed to the left door, "get there and weigh."

    Seeing him reach out to pick up a bunch of spoons on the shelf and move forward, long Jianhua picked up his courage again and slowly synchronized with him. There is only one voice in my heart, seventy-six cents!

    After walking to the wall, the fat man opened the baffle of the counter and walked along the wall to the door, "have you done it?"

    "Absolutely. You can check at will. "

    "Of course I have to check. I won''t let you fish in troubled waters and shoddy. Now some people just want to take advantage of the country... "

    Long Jianhua is carrying a burden and can only say yes. The distance is less than two feet, which is slower than walking more than five miles just now.

    PS: long Jianhua is going to make money. Have the big guys collected enough? Did you keep the recommendation ticket? Ah, I beg, beg!
