Chapter 1499 You are too kind!

Yu Hongbin, who was following behind, coughed lightly, and Han Laosi immediately understood that he had said too much!

He smiled awkwardly and led the two people into the goose farm in the village. "These are the 20,000 geese that came from the hatchery this year. They are growing well now. Once it freezes and snows, they can be sold."

"Goose down..." Han Laowu was still trying to pull out the goose down, but Han Laosi quietly stepped on him, "Goose down is hard to pull out, it takes a lot of effort!"

"Yes, yes, it's quite difficult to remove the old feathers. Some of them even need to be plucked out with pliers!"

Han Laowu quickly echoed him, and Chen Detai nodded with a smile, "Not bad, not bad, relying on the big goose, we can also make a fortune!"

"Not really, not really. It's just pocket money and a way to make a living..."

Han Laosi is just like Lao Cao, he is afraid of people saying he is rich!
Everyone at the Ji family oil press is doing their own business and performing their own duties. The village chief Wang Zimin warmly received the father and son who came to inspect and first took them on a tour of the oil press. After receiving support from the county, the oil press was upgraded from the original traditional method of pressing oil to an electric oil press, which not only has a high oil yield but is also quick and easy.

"Our soybean oil is made from genuine soybeans. Look at the color and the smell. Even the big restaurant of the Zhang family in Hecheng uses our soybean oil. It makes the dishes very fragrant!"

Wang Zimin boasted, "How about taking two buckets back to try when you leave?"

"No, no..." Chen Detai waved his hands repeatedly, looking at the pile of bean cakes next to the oil press, "What are you going to do with these scraps?"

"If someone comes to press the oil, they will pack the bean cakes back to feed the cattle and other animals. If we collect beans and press the oil ourselves, the remaining bean cakes will be sold to Ermajia. They need them to feed the cattle."

"I see their herd of cattle is quite large. There are more than 2,000 of them now..."

"Of course, this little bit of bean cake is not enough for anything. I'm thinking of going to Aqi to collect more soybeans. I'm telling you, old man, we have to say that the old Caos are very particular and kind! They didn't forget us poor guys when they made money. If it weren't for their help, we would still be broke..."

Although it was an unintentional remark, it made Chen Detai's old face turn red. He tugged at his clothes nervously, rolled up his sleeves and looked at his watch.

"You guys did a really good job, keep it up!"

Seeing that his father looked unhappy, Chen Shirong hurriedly stood up to say goodbye. Wang Zimin hurriedly tried to persuade him to stay, "Why are you in such a hurry? Eat first, then leave. It's already been done!"

"No, no, we still have to inspect each village one by one. Time is short and the task is heavy..." Chen Detai stood up and shook Wang Zimin's hand. "Then I wish your oil press business will be prosperous and make a fortune!"

"Haha, okay, that makes me feel good. Third brother, hurry up and fill two barrels of soybean oil for Grandpa and take it back to try! I tell you, Grandpa, you can't refuse it. Our soybean oil... is very delicious for frying fried dough twists..."

Two barrels of soybean oil were stuffed into the father and son's hands. They looked at each other with bitter smiles, got on their motorcycles, and headed straight for the next village.

"Dad, I see that the people here in Durki Township are generally richer than those in the south!" The father and son rode their motorcycle southward along the road, carefully observing the pedestrians on the road. They saw that they all looked good and their clothes were neatly dressed. Although some of them occasionally had patches on them, compared with other areas in Hecheng, they were very few.

"Sun Jianping is a good guy!"

Chen Detai smiled and said, "We left our homes and businesses to fight the Japanese invaders, wasn't it because we hoped that our fellow villagers could live a good life one day?"

"Dad, your lofty ideal has now been realized!" Chen Shirong hurriedly flattered his father. Chen Detai smiled and nodded, "It should be said that Sun Jianping helped us realize it. I have to thank him very much!"

"By the way, Dad, I heard that Sun Jianping is Sun Changlin's son?" "Yes, internal documents have mentioned this."

"Then he can be considered to have a background and a backer. Why did Uncle Cao treat me so harshly yesterday? Although you helped me a little, it mainly depends on my personal efforts, right?"

"Lao Cao is a stubborn person. He likes to dwell on things. Don't take it to heart. I will talk to him when I have time."

"What kind of knowledge can an old farmer have? He just feels uncomfortable seeing our family become prosperous, so he deliberately says weird things to get into trouble!"

"You bastard, why are you talking about your Uncle Cao? If it weren't for him, I, your father, would have died many times. I can't forget your life-saving grace!"

"I know, Dad. You are too kind and righteous, and you like to talk about old times. If it were me..."

"What if I change you?"

"Forget it, where are we going next?"

"Go forward! Turn at the next intersection and go to Donggang Village. I have fought in that village many times before."

The Jialing 50 motorcycle rushed at lightning speed, shuttling back and forth between villages, investigating the living conditions of local people on the spot. It has to be admitted that compared with previous years, the living standards of the people in Durki Township have greatly improved. Under the guidance of the local county, those who raise pigs raise pigs, those who raise geese raise geese, and every family lives a promising life!

However, Chen Detai still felt very upset, especially when he thought of Lao Cao, this feeling became stronger.

Originally, Yu Changhai said that he would gather all the remaining brothers and sisters in Erhu Mountain together and have a good time, but in the end he rejected this suggestion. One Lao Cao would not be a problem, but if everyone thought like Lao Cao, how could these people give him a good life?
Especially that Zhang Laosan, he has a hot temper, and if we have a disagreement, he might even shoot me with a gun!
Forget it, times have changed, the countryside is no longer the same, let’s just go!
The father and son rode their motorcycles all the way to the county, found a guesthouse to stay in, and when they were strolling on the streets, they suddenly felt that this place was very different from Hecheng!
Hecheng is carrying out a national sanitation campaign, and millions of people in the city are cleaning the streets, while on the other side of the Nahe River, the situation is calm and the people are living in peace!
Besides, the streets here are very clean, and passers-by are very civic-minded. When they see scraps of paper, they will pick them up and throw them into the trash can on the roadside.

There is a large open space near the bus station not far from the guesthouse, where stalls are set up to sell mountain products and vegetables. It can be considered a farmer's market. There are many people buying vegetables and fruits inside, and there are no uniformed people collecting fees. Everything is in order.

The whole small city gave Chen Detai a feeling of peace and leisure, with a sense of calm and grandeur. It was unlike Hecheng, which was like a freak accident, launching an action every now and then, disturbing the people!
After a stroll around the farmers' market, the father and son each had a handful of red raspberries in their hands. They ate them as they walked. They were sour and sweet and very delicious.

"Look, son, how quiet this little town is!"

"Yes, it feels like I'm back in the countryside!" Chen Shirong scratched his head, "Dad, this is probably what Laozi advocated, 'rule by doing nothing'!"

"There is a similarity!" Chen Detai smiled. "Governing a country is different from fighting a war. Fighting a war is about 'wind, forest, fire and volcano', quick battle and quick decision, and pacifying the world as soon as possible with the least cost. Governing a country is like a continuous stream of water and a gentle breeze, which can be subtle and spontaneous. This is the so-called 'You can take over the world right away, but you can't rule it right away'."

"Well, we have been tossing and turning for decades, always with great fanfare and enthusiasm, but what is the result?"

"As the saying goes, 'Governing a big country is like cooking a small fish'. If you move the small fish, it will break into pieces. After being tossed back and forth a few times, the fried fish will become a pot of broken paste. Can it still be eaten? The bigger the country, the more cautious it should be in governing. It must not change its policies every day and act recklessly, otherwise..."

The old man stopped abruptly!

He saw a young man walking out of the gate of the county compound, leading out a tall horse, sitting on the stone pier at the gate and pawing the horse!
