It starts with the production team driving the big truck

Chapter 1666: Rural roads are more slippery and people’s hearts are more complicated!
Sun Jianping smiled awkwardly, "I can't give them money!"

"Now you understand, which is more useful, power or money?"

"Tomorrow I will ask Secretary Fang to close down our father's construction site!" Sun Jianping laughed slyly, causing Miss Qian to roll her eyes. "What's wrong? Are you jealous? Virtue!"

"Don't worry, my wife. I'm telling you, I found a treasure this time when I went to Beijing!" Sun Jianping whispered mysteriously into his wife's ear. Qian Huijun's eyes widened. "Did you find two more of that set of big bowls?"

"Yes, three. I'll show you when we get back..."

"Hey, hey, hey, what are that young couple doing? They are almost kissing each other!" Li Xiuzhi grabbed a ball of snow, threw it over, and shouted with a smile!
The couple blushed. Li Xiuzhi came over and grabbed Qian Huijun's arm. "Oh my, this guy is so clingy right after he came back. Jianping, you don't know how hopeless your wife is. I missed you so much that I cried a few days ago..."

"Sister-in-law, don't talk nonsense, I was blinded by the wind!"

"Come on, I think your husband has blinded you... I'm blushing, haha!"

"My sister-in-law is annoying. Brother, help me teach her a lesson!" Qian Huijun's face turned red with embarrassment. She hid behind Sun Jianping. Sun Jianping shouted with a fierce face, "Who dares to bully my wife?"

The men, young and old, also laughed and sighed that the couple had a really good relationship!
They already have three kids, but they're still as sticky as honey!
"Jianping, what's going on in the capital now? Are there any good policies?"

Wang Zihe waved at him and handed him a stool. Sun Jianping sat down. "The higher-ups have just issued a No. 1 document recently, requiring us to consolidate the agricultural foundation and ensure increased income and production. The city also held a meeting a while ago and determined the goal for this year, which is to optimize the industrial structure and transform from exporting grain to exporting meat products..."

"You still have to raise pigs and geese?"

"Of course. How much is a pound of corn now?" Sun Jianping waved his hand and pushed back the cigarette Wang Zihe handed him. "Uncle, how is the winery in your village?"

"You said our distillery is okay, we can sell two to three hundred kilograms a day, just enough to cover New Year expenses..." Wang Zihe lit a cigarette and took a puff, "The old generation of our Wang family has been running distilleries and oil mills, and now we have picked up our old business again."

"You're right. The current scale is only enough to cover annual expenses. We need to expand it further!"

The kitten also ran over to join in the fun, jumped into Sun Jianping's arms, and curled up into a big fur ball. Its bright big eyes stared curiously at Wang Zihe who was smoking, and it stretched out its claws to grab the smoking cigarette butt.

Sun Jianping pinched the cat's ears and said, "If you want to expand, we will find a way to raise money, raise funds, install equipment, and expand the scale!"

"That's great, I'll do whatever you say!"

Princehe laughed, revealing a mouthful of big teeth that had turned yellow from smoke.

"Okay, after the New Year, come to my office and we'll discuss what to do..."

"It's fishy!"

Wang Ziming called out, and Wang Zihe looked at his watch, "It's three o'clock, leader, let's go, we all learned this from you!"

“Haha, I am also the first to do winter fishing!”

Sun Jianping stood up and called the men, young and old, to go to the ice, pull the fishing nets, and catch big fish for the New Year!
"One, two, one, one, two, one..."

Countless strong men lined up in a long queue, pulling the heavy fishing nets forward with difficulty, like a group of boat trackers on the Volga River!
The children also ran over with bags of candy in their pockets, and curiously watched as their fathers and brothers pulled the fishing nets under the ice, little by little, to the surface of the water!

Lao Cao and Yu Changhai held the scoop net, hunched over, and stared at the ice hole nervously.

"Old Deng, go over there! You're crowding me!"

Yu Changhai kept on nagging, and Lao Cao glared at him, "If you keep on nagging, I'll stuff you into an ice hole and feed you to the fish!"

"Damn, he gets impatient so quickly, how shameless!" Crash!

A large silver carp more than half a meter long jumped out of the water, and its huge tail fin splashed up a cloud of water mixed with ice chips, splashing all over Yu Changhai's face!
"Hahaha!"

Lao Cao couldn’t stop laughing!

"You deserve it, you deserve it! You're not allowed to show off!" He quickly fished out the silver carp, also known as bighead carp, and threw it onto the ice.

"This is so much!"

Seeing a large group of black fish moving back and forth under the ice, Yu Changhai simply knelt on the ice, threw away the scoop net, and reached out to catch them!

"Look at this old Aohua!"

"Damn it, take it easy! Don't freeze your legs!"

Lao Cao kicked a piece of wood over to him and put it under his knees. "You have a lot of white beard now, and you are still young!"

"Hehe, brother still cares about me!"

"Get out of the way!" Lao Cao cursed with a smile, threw away the scoop net, and hurriedly tried to catch the fish.

This time they used an eight-finger fishing net, which has the largest mesh size available on the market. It filtered out the small fish early on, and only large fish weighing more than ten kilograms were caught!
After so many years of artificial breeding by throwing fish into the stream, the Taipingshan Reservoir is now full of big fish. Just one casual net can catch as much as four or five thousand kilograms!
"Look, brother, he's so old!"

There were countless large fish lying in disorder on the ice, each of them was more than half a meter long. Among them, a big king fish was caught, a giant sturgeon weighing more than 150 kilograms. It was placed on the ground, round and plump, like a big fat black pig!

"Each family should pick up the big ones and take two home!"

Sun Jianping waved his hands and directed everyone to come and get the fish. Every household in the four villages next to the reservoir: Jijiayoufang, Xiaoxishan, Ermajia, and Yuweizi got a share!

As for the villages downstream, such as Sankeshu to Qishu, each village there has its own pond and they are responsible for handling the water themselves.

Sun Jianping did this to appease the people of these villages. There are so many fish in such a large reservoir, and they are all caught by the team to sell for money. Normally, everyone is not allowed to get some to eat. Who wouldn't be jealous?
Who knows, there might be some unscrupulous people who secretly put some rat poison in the water and kill a thousand or eight hundred fish as if it were a piece of cake?
People say that the city is full of tricks, so I want to go back to the countryside. In fact, the roads in the countryside are more slippery and people’s hearts are more complicated!
Can you please not appease these unruly common people?
Everybody was overjoyed. While praising Sun Jianping, they picked and chose two large fish weighing over ten pounds. They pierced the fish gills with willow branches and carried them home.

Eat fish during the Chinese New Year!
May you have surplus every year!

Life is getting better and better!

As the sun was setting, this grand winter fishing activity came to an end. The sturgeon weighing more than 100 kilograms was still lying safely on the ice. In Taipingshan Village, there was only one person who was qualified to catch this fish!

County Magistrate Sun!
"Old Five, hurry up and find a sack to pack the sturgeon and send it to Jianping's house!" Han Old Four urged him at the top of his voice. Sun Jianping waved his hands repeatedly, "It's so big... We have a small family and can't finish it. Give it to Mr. Xia. The old man has a large family. It's just right to stew it for the New Year!"

"Yes, give it to Mr. Xia!" Lao Cao also spoke, which made Mr. Xia, who came to watch the fun, blush with embarrassment and waved his hands to refuse.

"Just take it, old man. You are the centenarian of our Taipingshan Village and a blessing to our village!" Sun Jianping smiled and handed the sack of big fish to Xia Yunfeng who came with him, asking him to take it home and stew it!

"Then I have to thank you very much, boss!" Mr. Xia grinned, making Sun Jianping feel embarrassed, "Grandpa has grown another year older after the New Year!"

"As time goes by, people get older! Old man, do you remember how old you are this year?" Lao Cao asked with a smile.
