Return to the era, take over and become a winner in life

Chapter 52 I want Xu Ye to show me the way (Seeking follow-up reading)
"Xu Ye, stop being busy and come wash your face and prepare for dinner."

As she spoke, Jiang Ruyue fetched a basin of water and walked in front of Xu Ye, almost starting to wash Xu Ye's face.

Xu Ye had just rubbed his face when he heard Zhang Sanbao's voice coming from outside.

"Brother, are we going hunting today?" Zhang Sanbao came to the gate of the yard with a bowl of rice.

Making money can be addictive, and Zhang Sanbao is addicted now.

He didn't want to work in the brigade at all. He just wanted to follow Xu Ye to the mountains to hunt and earn money.

Even if you don't have money, it's good to earn some food in the mountains.

"It will definitely rain this afternoon, so we won't be able to hunt."

"I plan to prepare some things at home and go again in a couple of days when the weather is better." Xu Ye said.

Hunting also depends on the weather. It is not suitable to go into the mountains on rainy days.

Not only can they not find prey, but they may also encounter extreme weather or mountain torrents and mudslides, which can be fatal.

Zhang Sanbao looked up at the sky and found that he could not figure out anything, but he chose to believe Xu Ye.

"Brother, do you need help? If so, just let me know. I don't really want to go to work anyway." Zhang Sanbao continued to ask.

"No, I can do it myself." Xu Ye didn't want to take advantage of Zhang Sanbao, but there was no need to spend money to hire him.

Just build a coke oven and paint the bathroom walls rough, you can do it yourself in a day.

"Okay, just let me know if you need anything." With that, Zhang Sanbao took the bowl of rice and ate all the way back.

The breakfast was not very rich, but Xu Ye ate three big bowls of rice.

After eating it for a few days, he also got used to the sweet potato rice.

Of course, it’s also because there is no choice.

There is not much rice left at home, and we need to buy new one.

After breakfast, everyone except Li Qian walked towards the team.

Except for the second team which is specifically responsible for digging river sand, all other teams must gather at the brigade headquarters.

Their commune has three work shifts: morning, morning and afternoon.

早上6点到8点是晨工，9点到12点是上午，下午是1点30到5点30。

After work in the evening, you need to go to the team headquarters to evaluate your work points, otherwise all your work for the day will be in vain.

In some brigades, work points are assessed at night.

The situations in different brigades and communes are different, and it is impossible to follow one standard for all of them.

In the morning, their team usually cuts grass, weeds, chops grass, feeds pigs, etc.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Fan Dajun rang the bell to go to work.

Some members who did not arrive in time would speed up their pace.

Xu Ye had no intention of going to work, so he went straight into the team's office and found the accountant.

Accountant Yang Zongming, a man in his forties, fought against the Japanese and had one of his legs blown off.

"Accountant Yang, I want to buy ten work points. I'm asking for leave today to take care of some things at home." Xu Ye took out fifty cents and handed it over.

Yang Zongming looked up at Xu Ye, paused for a moment, and then said in a hoarse voice: "You just transferred to the third team and you don't want to go to work. Do you want to compete with Liu Quansheng?"

"Look at what you said. How could an activist like me possibly disrupt the team's production plan?"

"It's true that something happened at home. I want to make a wheelchair for my brother-in-law, so I want to get a blacksmith stove." Xu Ye said seriously.

"You can forge iron?" Yang Zongming looked at Xu Ye in surprise.

"I know a little." Xu Ye said modestly.

"Then why didn't you tell me before? Blacksmithing is a craft. It can be done as a side job and can earn money for our team!" Yang Zongming said excitedly.

Today, Sanxi Brigade is extremely poor and suffers from a cash shortage every year.

He and Fan Dajun worried about the brigade's money-making plans every day.

Because other brigades were living a good life relying on their side businesses, but the people in the Sanxi Brigade still couldn't get enough food.

If you don’t eat enough, you won’t have the energy to work. If you don’t have the energy to work, your harvest will be low.

This is a vicious cycle. If we don’t break out of it, we won’t be able to live like this.

“Manual forging is too inefficient and has mostly been replaced by machines.”

"Besides, you know the traffic situation in our village. It's hard to sell river sand, so what if everyone in the village becomes an ironworker?"

"Accountant Yang, can you show your skills and take them out to sell?"

"I still say the same thing, if you want to make the village rich, you have to open up the road first."

"We worked together with Shangxi Village and Xiawan Village to dig a river through the mountains and open up a waterway to the town."

"With more convenient transportation, things from the mountains can be shipped out and sold for money."

After saying that, Xu Ye sat down opposite Yang Zongming.

Yang Zongming sighed, then took out a bag of red plums and handed one to Xu Ye.

This was the third time he had heard Xu Ye talk about digging a river by digging a mountain.

"This project is so huge that even if all the people from the three villages work together, it will take two to three years."

"The problem is that we can't stop production. If we stop, how will we pay the public grain tax and what will everyone eat?" Yang Zongming spread his hands and said helplessly.

He also knew that if he wanted to be rich, he had to build roads first.

The problem is that this road is too difficult to build. Even the waterway that Xu Ye mentioned is not that easy.

“Opening the river channel will bring huge benefits to our three villages.”

“When conditions permit, we can build roads and bridges along the river and then open traffic directly to the town.”

Xu Ye really wanted to tell him that the town would be upgraded to a county town and eventually become a county-level city.

But in the end he held back, after all, he didn't want to reveal that he was a reborn person.

"Is there no other way?" Yang Zongming looked at Xu Ye and always felt that this kid from Beijing must have other ways.

"Why do we need people to dig? We can use explosives to blow it up. This will not only save time, but also train a construction team."

"At that time, the construction team can go out and take on jobs to earn money." After saying this, Xu Ye lit a cigarette.

Yang Zongming twitched his lips and spread his hands, saying, "The explosives brigade doesn't have the money to buy them. Shangxi and Qianwan will definitely not pay for it. We are the poorest in Sanxi, and they will just abandon us."

"Besides, it's not a small amount of money. Even their two teams can't raise enough money."

"As for the commune, forget it. My pockets are cleaner than my face."

If you want to blow up a mountain or dig a river, you will definitely need a lot of explosives.

Even if they could get approval from the commune, they would not be able to come up with the money.

"Let me go back and think about how to make money." With that, Xu Ye stood up and walked outside.

There are actually many ways to make money!
Although individuals cannot make money, the collective can.

The kiln factory in Shangxi Village is all the factories in the village. Some villages have also opened various factories to help everyone make money.

The problem is that Xu Ye is nothing now and has no right to worry about these things.

If Fan Dajun and Yang Zongming really want to make the village rich, they have to show the right attitude.

Otherwise, Xu Ye would not have taken the initiative.

And if you want to live a good life, blasting mountains and digging rivers is the first step.

If you can't make up your mind, don't even think about getting rich.

After leaving the office, Xu Ye called Li Qing to go home together.

Li Qing is only 14 years old now. According to regulations, people are considered to be in the labor force at the age of 16, so she does not need to work.

I only earn two or three minutes a day when I go to work.

This little income is not enough to support herself, and she is still doing a shitty job. She might as well go back and help herself.

　Godfathers, I urgently need monthly ticket support. Godfathers who have monthly tickets please give me some, so that I can show my face and increase my collection so that I can have a chance to get better recommendations. Please everyone! ! ! !
