Mountain Village Chicken Tycoon

Chapter 46
During the Chinese New Year, almost everyone returned home.People in the same village meet each other and tell each other the news they know, and then many interesting things that happened last year spread among the villagers.

I don't know when it started, the villagers mainly talked about how much grain the family collected, how old the girls and boys were, etc., but how much money the family made last year, how they got rich and so on.

In the second half of 2002, Zhao Qingshan, a villager of Fenghuangling Village, took his parents to set up a chicken farm in Dongling and made a lot of money raising chickens. It became big news in Fenghuangling Village.

All the people in the village, young and old, were discussing this matter during the past few days during the Chinese New Year.

Everyone saw that the Zhao family had made a lot of money raising chickens, and everyone was envious. However, when they saw He Zhongheng's disheveled face and debts, they all gave up their thoughts.

Raising chickens makes money, but not everyone makes money.

If you want to raise chickens to make money, you have to have the ability to raise chickens. Most of the villagers are simple and humble, and they feel that they don't have that ability.

Invite family hall on New Year’s Eve, pay New Year’s greetings and kowtow on the first day of the new year, and send family hall off on the second day of the new year. This year, in a narrow sense, will be over.

The so-called end of the year means that those who should go to work should go to work, and those who should work should work, and there is nothing taboo.

In the 90s, every year on the first day of the new year, everyone stopped working and closed business, even the small shop in the village was closed.But later, the supermarkets and restaurants in the city not only opened as usual during the Chinese New Year, but also became extremely popular.

Therefore, in line with the goal of making money, the old traditions are abandoned. On the first day of the new year, we will open for business, and those who should go to work will go to work.

The Zhao family also has hired workers, but in line with the principle of respecting tradition, they gave their three employees paid holidays during the Chinese New Year.

You can still get money if you don't work. This is something that was unimaginable in the countryside.And now, this matter has been realized in the chicken farm of Zhao Qingshan's family in Dongling.

After the second day of junior high school, I finished sending off to my family, and then I started to visit relatives in the third junior high school.

In many parts of the country, relatives are visiting in the second grade of junior high school, but in central Luzhong, it is in the third grade of junior high school.

The most important relatives must be the grandparents' house. If you encounter relatives in the first three days of the new year, you must go to grandma's house.Then the next seven aunts and eight aunts will walk around carefully, and those who procrastinate can be avoided if possible.

Zhao Qingshan had chickens at home, so he was busy, and then went to Xiaomiao Village, his grandma's house, on the third day of the Lunar New Year.And when they went, only Zhao Qingshan and his mother Zhang Huifen went, while his father Zhao Zhijiang stayed at home to take care of the chicks.

On the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, Zhao Qingshan's aunts, uncles and aunts all came to Dongling, Zhao Qingshan's home.

Visiting relatives during the New Year in the countryside is lively, peaceful and happy.Relatives are only called relatives if they move around. If they don’t move around, they won’t know anyone in a few years, and that’s going to be troublesome.

After the relatives left, those who started work started, those who went to school went to school, everything returned to its original state.

In 2003, the holidays in high school were not as strict as later. In almost every high school, the third year of senior high school will definitely start around the fourth day of junior high school, while the first and second grades of senior high school will never be later than the eighth day of junior high school. School starts at six.

As for the teachers in this era, they are generally more dedicated, and they will never talk about running tutoring classes for a fee.

As for the students, they also generally love learning.

You know, in 2003, it was still a bit difficult to get into high school.

Zhao Qingshan sent He Hui some living expenses to ensure that she could complete her studies.As for He Zhongheng, he didn't go anywhere during the whole Chinese New Year.He owed too much debt, walking on the road in the village, I am afraid that people behind him will start talking about it.

Liu Liang urged He Zhongheng to tell his sister-in-law to be his wife, but when He Zhongheng returned home and mentioned this to his wife Shen Yuee, Shen Yuee strongly opposed it.

Liu Liang's reputation is not good in Fenghuangling Village. Not only is he delicious and lazy, but he is also good at gambling.

Because of this incident, the relationship between Liu Liang and He Zhongheng was not good. During the Chinese New Year, Liu Liang did not visit He Zhongheng's house to pay New Year's greetings.

Of course, it's even worse for Shen Yue'e to visit Liu Liang's house to pay New Year's greetings.

The family owed so much money, including those who built the chicken farm and the Agricultural University Corporation, the He family owed a total of 10 yuan.

How can the 10 yuan be repaid?
There is no need to rush to repay the 8 yuan borrowed by relatives and friends, but the 2 yuan owed to the agricultural company cannot be repaid.

He Zhongheng still wants to raise chickens, but if he wants to raise chickens, he must pay back the 2 yuan owed to the Agricultural University.

On the front foot, Zhao Qingshan sent his daughter 1000 yuan of living expenses, and on the back foot, He Zhongheng's eyeballs started to roll.

He pondered: I used to have the best relationship with Zhao Zhijiang. Although it was wrong that I didn't inform him when I raised chickens, I didn't mention that matter. Now that their family has made a lot of money, I If they ask him to borrow 2 yuan, they should not refuse!
The decision was made, and He Zhongheng began to wait.

Why wait, because there are no borrowers in the first month.Borrowing money in the first month will make you and your creditors feel uneasy throughout the year.Of course, these are old superstitious traditions.But the old tradition, everyone believes that there is no need to stand against the big guys.

After finally waiting until February, the jasmine flowers on the mountain have begun to show their flower bones one after another, and the tender yellow grass buds are exposed under the withered grass on the hillside. The river surface is frozen and the river continues to flow.The spring breeze and drizzle blew over the earth, and the whole earth reappeared with vitality.

He Zhongheng brought about two catties of beef head meat and two bottles of red sorghum wine that day, and came to Zhao Qing's chicken farm in Dongling.

He Zhongheng has not been to Dongling for a long time since he lost money raising chickens last year.

And the chicken ring fertilizer in his chicken farm was poached and sold by Liu Liang at the end of last year.

Maybe it was because He Zhongheng promised to give his sister-in-law to Liu Liang as his wife but failed. He felt resentful. When he was digging the chicken rings for fat, he knocked down the two pillars in the big shed at the foot of the mountain. The canvas collapsed, as did the load-bearing walls on either side.

When passing by his own greenhouse, He Zhongheng frowned and didn't go in seeing the dilapidated look.

At Zhao Qingshan's house, at this moment, Zhao Qingshan, Zhao Zhijiang, Ma Jinchang, Liu Yuren and Liu Tao, five of them, are throwing out the chickens in the chicken coop, and then let the chickens find something to eat under the apple tree.

Although it is still early for the Awakening of Insects solar term, there are some grass seeds under the apple tree, apple seeds, etc., which can be used as feed for the chickens, so the chickens quickly got busy in the apple orchard.

Seeing He Zhongheng coming with something, Zhao Qingshan frowned and murmured in his heart: what is he doing here?
