Era: I was a farmer at the foot of Yaoling Mountain

"Secretary, we currently have too many pigs. Once the piglets grow up a little, the site will become very crowded. I have talked to Captain Zheng and while we are not busy recently, we should just hand in this year's pig production quota."

Uncle Wu is a bit of a chatterbox and never stops talking.

Fang Wei had been listening quietly until the other party talked about the task of handing in the live pigs, then he interrupted.

"What did Huzi say?"

"He said he'd arrange for personnel and vehicles in the next two days, and they'd have to hand it over sooner or later, so we might as well vacate the space sooner rather than later. Those people at the commune are also snobs. Seeing that we're living well, they've given us more tasks."

Fang Wei stayed in the pig farm for an hour before leaving.

At present, the pig delivery task of Xiatang Brigade has increased to 120 heads {per year}, an average of 10 heads per production team.

There is nothing wrong with this. As the number of breeding animals increases, the corresponding tasks will also increase. This is very realistic.

the next day.

Zheng Hu organized manpower and vehicles to deliver the 120 task pigs to the commune.

[Produces piglets, points +37440]

Total points: 1844935.

There were still 2019 pigs left in the pig farm, and the brigade earned 23578.20 yuan in cash.

A few days passed quickly.

The document about Fang Wei serving as a national representative was distributed to the county and the commune. Not only was Zheng Xianfa shocked, but even Wu Yaoyang found it unbelievable.

Wu Yaoyang originally thought that Fang Wei had some problems in the pilot work and did not strictly control the distribution, so he could only focus on cultivating hybrid rice in the team in the future.

Unexpectedly, the higher-ups didn't care about those little things, and Fang Wei took a step forward instead.

"Third brother, it's not good for you to hide such a big thing from everyone, right? But no matter what, this is a great thing. Congratulations!"

morning.

Fang Wei came to the team headquarters to look at documents, and Zheng Hu and others rushed in.

Zheng Hu looked at him with a resentful look, which made him feel uncomfortable and gave him goose bumps.

"You think I'm deliberately hiding this because at the time I only said it had been reported but not yet confirmed. How could I tell everyone? Isn't this matter finally settled? The documents have also been sent to the county commune."

Fang Wei rolled his eyes at Zheng Hu. This guy didn't just say what he wanted to say nicely, but had to make himself look like a nagging woman.

Everyone congratulated him and said they were proud that a big figure had emerged in the team.

"Secretary, to celebrate your advancement, shall we arrange a big pot dinner?"

Accountant Liu also joined in the fun, and everyone else followed suit.

"If you're craving meat, just tell the truth. Why do you have to tie it to some celebration? I don't care about that. Just ask the captain. It's all fine as long as he agrees."

Fang Wei laughed and did not refuse the proposal.

There were so many things going on this year that he hadn't had the energy to deal with the trivial matters during the spring planting. Zheng Hu had just become the team leader and was a bit cautious, so he hadn't slaughtered any pigs since the Chinese New Year.

Eating from a big pot is just an excuse. In fact, many members are asking when they can get their share of pork.

"Are you still relying on me? Eating from a big pot is too troublesome. Let's divide the pork."

Zheng Hu knew exactly what they wanted to do, so he offered to divide the pork.

Fang Wei smiled but said nothing. Not only did he want to eat fresh pork, but his wife and children also wanted to eat it.

the next day.

The team slaughtered 100 pigs and every household received fresh pork.

[Produces piglets, points +32300]

Total points: 1877235.

There are 1919 pigs left on the farm.

It just so happened that Grandpa had returned a few days ago, and Fang Wei called his elder brother and sister-in-law, several brigade cadres including Zheng Hu, as well as Guan Chongyang and Sun Daoren, to his house for a drink.

Pan Lianhua, Wang Zhuyun and Tian Guihua were in charge of the cooking, and they made their signature dishes such as [Braised Pork] and [Stir-fried Pork Liver].

"Third brother, the longer your rice wine is aged, the better it tastes! Come on, let's all have a toast and congratulate him on his further advancement."

Guan Chongyang raised his glass first, and everyone congratulated Fang Wei.

This is actually a remarkable event. Few people in the history of Xinlin County have reached this level.

Fang Wei picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp, then he smacked his lips. Just as the old man said, this kind of rice wine becomes more mellow the longer it is stored.

"Secretary, when will you go to Beijing?"

Everyone was chatting and laughing while drinking and eating, having a great time.

Zhao Jinsheng suddenly said this, leaving Fang Wei confused.

"What do you mean?"

"I'm just asking when you're going to Beijing for the meeting. If you go, you'll be able to see the big square, the tall city walls, and the Great Hall. Just thinking about it makes me happy."

In fact, it’s not just Zhao Jinsheng. Most of the people here have never been to the provincial capital, let alone the capital.

But they all yearned for the capital city just as much, and they all envied Fang Wei, waiting for him to go there and tell everyone about it.

"Oh, the one you're talking about, the meeting will probably be in August. When I receive the meeting notice, I'll have to go to the capital."

Fang Wei grinned and responded to the other party's question.

Not to mention Zhao Jinsheng and the others, even Fang Wei himself wanted to visit the capital. He had no memory of the capital of this era, so when he went there, he would definitely take the time to wander around.

Grandpa looked at the scene with a smile, and felt happy for Fang Wei.

His grandson-in-law has made such rapid progress that it has completely exceeded his imagination.

The next day.

Fang Wei received a notice to attend a meeting in the county, but after the meeting started he found that the content of the meeting had nothing to do with him.

This may be one of the sequelae of his progress. When the county holds important meetings, he will naturally be notified to attend. He can choose not to go, but others cannot fail to notify him.

He only understood this principle later, so he generally would not attend any meeting unless it was particularly important.

After the meeting, Wu Yaoyang called Fang Wei to his office.

"Secretary Fang, I've been quite busy lately and haven't had time to congratulate you. Please forgive me for that!"

After the two sat down, Wu Yaoyang said a few polite words first.

Because of Fang Wei's progress, he already regarded him as an equal, but he was not intimidated by him.

"Director Wu, you're too polite. To be honest, I never thought I'd be able to become a national representative. It's just that my title is just empty. As the brigade secretary, am I still under your leadership?"

Fang Wei is also very polite. Face is given to each other, and he will not be complacent just because of his progress.

He has a clear understanding of reality.

Wu Yaoyang laughed heartily, feeling quite satisfied. He was worried that the other party would become arrogant due to his change of status. If this affected the breeding work, it would be more trouble than gain.

Fortunately, the young brigade secretary has a clear understanding of himself.

The two chatted pleasantly for twenty minutes, and then Fang Wei stood up and said goodbye.

When he came to the street, he stopped by to visit his niece Fang Tingting, and then went to find Guo Yongqing.

Old Guo's life gradually got better. Since Shen Yu took over the work of the nursery, he could go home every Saturday night and go to the nursery to work early on Monday morning.

The nursery was closed on Sundays, so she had a little more free time than before.

"Third brother, congratulations! The Fang family has produced such a talent as you. It's really a blessing from our ancestors. Team up, have you and the eldest brother visited your parents' graves this year?"

When we arrived at Lao Guo's house, he was indeed drinking.

It’s different now than before. He used to drink alone, but now he just has two drinks every day and lives a leisurely life.

Seeing Fang Wei coming, Lao Guo went to get a set of tableware, poured him a glass of wine, and then started chatting.

"Yes, my elder brother and I go there every year."

Fang Wei has received so many congratulations recently that he has become a little numb.

But it can be seen that Guo Yongqing is happy for him from the bottom of his heart.

"Third Brother, there's been a rumor lately that some of those who were previously sent down to the countryside will be allowed to return to the city, according to the policy. Have you heard anything?"

"I've heard that, but there's no official document yet, so everyone is just waiting and watching."

The environment had generally become more relaxed over the past two years, and Fang Wei believed that people like Luo Gong, Gao Qingshan, and Shen Yu might not be able to stay in the countryside for long. Their departure would undoubtedly cause some losses for the Xiatang Brigade, but he was still happy for them.

But rumors are just rumors after all, and nothing counts until official documents are released.

Fang Wei drank two glasses of wine, then went to get himself a large bowl of rice. After eating and drinking his fill, he said goodbye and left.

After returning to the team, he went to the bamboo factory and found that Yu Hao and others had not returned yet.

"They've received quite a few orders, and the factory's production schedule is fully booked until the end of August. Yu Hao is a hard-working guy, and he's still running around even though his wife's belly is getting bigger and bigger."

Fang Ping briefed his third brother on the movements of Yu Hao and the others, causing Fang Wei to frown.

Isn't this guy too hardworking? Pregnant women are less mobile in the later stages of pregnancy, and it's not okay for men to be away all the time. Even if Liang Xueqin doesn't say it, she will definitely feel some resentment in her heart.

"The factory sent a telegram to Yu Hao, asking him to come back immediately."

Fang Wei felt that the bamboo factory could develop slowly, but some things could not wait.

So he asked the factory to call Yu Hao back. There was more than one person in the sales department, so he would wait until his wife gave birth before going out.

The factory immediately did as instructed, and Yu Hao returned to the team two days later.

night.

Fang Wei and Pan Lianhua discussed going into the mountains to collect herbs. Chenzhou Chinese Medicine Hospital started urging for the goods again, and he felt embarrassed to delay any further.

Pan Lianhua had no objection. She then went to say hello to her eldest brother and followed the man into the mountains the next day.

"Be careful! There's a snake ahead."

This was the third poisonous snake the two had encountered along the way.

There are obviously more poisonous snakes and wild beasts in the forest than before. In addition, the vegetation in some areas is too dense, and the danger index in the forest is also rising sharply.

Fortunately, Fang Wei's personal attributes have also greatly improved, and any movement can hardly escape his observation.

Pan Lianhua stopped, and Fang Wei cleared the potential danger before the two continued on their way.

To be honest, if two people were to go into the mountains, something bad would definitely happen unless they were experienced hunters.

This trip into the mountains to collect herbs was quite fruitful.

In addition to picking a large number of rare herbs, he also brought back five venomous snakes. After Fang Wei processed the snakes, they were hung under the eaves in the backyard to dry, so that they could be used to make medicinal wine.

There is no shortage of meat at home recently, so I am too lazy to eat snake meat.

After all, the two of them will go into the mountains to collect herbs, and they will probably catch a lot of poisonous snakes.

"Third brother, I noticed that Grandpa is looking better and better. It seems that it was right to let him come and live with us. His spirits were not as good as they are now when he was in the mountains."

The two went into the mountains every other day and collected more and more herbs.

Pan Lianhua suddenly said something to Fang Wei that day. The speaker was unintentional, but the listener was intentional. Fang Wei couldn't help but feel moved.

He had previously thought that Grandpa's recovery was all thanks to Taoist Sun and the medicine. But don't forget, the main house also has a strong attribute bonus.

For example, before Sister Wang Zhuyun came to our house, her face was full of dark spots. Look how good she looks now?

For a long time, Fang Wei has been working hard to improve the levels of the [planting area], [forestry and picking area] and various production facilities, but has neglected the upgrade of the [main house].

[Main House] is only level 10 now, which is far behind other facilities.

So he checked the remaining points and decided to spend 150 million points to upgrade the level of [Residence] to level 12.

[Facility] → [Living Facilities] → [Main House]

[Facility Level: (Level 12, 0\500 million points)]

[Facility Attributes: Solid, Durable, Concentrated, Calming, and Prosperous to the Owner]

[Living in this building, all attributes increase by an additional 120%, luck +1]

Total points: 377235.

After the upgrade, Fang Wei felt an indescribable feeling in his heart. To put it bluntly, he felt comfortable all over after staying at home, and even his brain became clearer.

That day, he and Pan Lianhua did not go into the mountains. When they were having dinner, Grandpa said:
"I've been feeling much better lately, especially today. I don't know why, but I just felt so relaxed, as if a huge burden had been lifted off my shoulders."

"Really? That's great. Grandpa, you must have recovered after taking the medicine. When you're well, you'll naturally feel more relaxed."

Pan Lianhua was very happy to hear what grandpa said.

She felt that Taoist Sun's medical skills were truly amazing. Although he couldn't bring the dead back to life, he could definitely restore the health of those who were close to death.

Fang Wei was thoughtful. It seemed that the role of [residence] for him and his family was greater than he had imagined.

If Taoist Sun's medicine is the hero who stimulates the patient's potential, then the [Main House] is the gentle rain that moistens the earth silently, and can slowly repair the body functions that medicine is powerless to do.

The two complement each other, which is why Grandpa's condition gradually improved.

"It's a pity that it's not convenient for Mr. Guan to live at home, otherwise I would be good for his health."

Guan Chongyang has a house in the village, so Fang Wei can take care of him more often, but if he moves in with them, people will gossip. Based on his understanding of the old man, he is sure that he will not agree.

However, when he has nothing to do, he often comes to chat with grandpa and stays for the whole day. I don’t know if it has any effect.

I guess it won't have much effect.

After dinner, Fang Wei chatted with his grandfather for a while, then got up and went to Guan Chongyang.

Arriving outside the Guan family's yard, Fang Wei stopped and took a serious look at the house for the first time.

Guan Chongyang himself is a Feng Shui master. Although this house is not big, the overall layout gives people a very comfortable feeling.

"Old Three, why are you standing here and not going in?"

Fang Wei was looking at the old man's house when Taoist Sun came over from the side.

He would give his senior brother a massage every night to help the old man sleep better, but as soon as he went out, he saw Fang Wei standing in front of the yard in a daze.

So he asked with a smile.

"Huh? Nothing, I just suddenly wanted to take a look at the overall layout of this house."

Fang Wei came to his senses, and then walked into Guan Chongyang's house with Taoist Sun.

The old man is not asleep yet. He is waiting for Taoist Sun. The other party comes every night, and he is used to it.

After entering the house and sitting down, the old man went to make a pot of tea and brought it out.

Fang Wei drank tea leisurely. This was the new tea he gave to the old man, which he picked from the ancient tea trees on the mountains.

Taoist Sun first took Guan Chongyang's pulse, then nodded with satisfaction.

"Brother, your health is very good. After a few months and a few more doses of medicine, your condition will stabilize. Whether you need to continue taking the medicine will have to wait at least half a year before deciding."

Guan Chongyang was very happy. He knew very well how expensive his medicine was, and he had to take it because Fang Wei would really lose his temper.

His health was getting better and better, and the intervals between medications would become longer, which would also relieve some of Fang Wei's burden.

So during this period, he not only adjusted his diet and lifestyle, but also practiced health-preserving exercises with his junior fellow apprentice.

It used to be difficult for me to exercise, but now I can do it every day.

"Master, please give the old man a massage. I'll be leaving soon."

Fang Wei was also very happy, not because of the money. He could now support the medical treatment and medicine of the two elderly people just by picking rare herbs.

Instead, he felt that he might have found another answer. Although the old man did not have the attribute blessing of the [main house], the health-preserving exercises he practiced with his junior brother must have worked.

Another example is that if you practice health-preserving exercises with yourself in the lotus position every day, the effects will be very obvious.

Pan Lianhua looks graceful and more beautiful than flowers, but in fact her physical fitness is comparable to that of a "female Tyrannosaurus Rex". She is the kind of person who dares to hunt tigers and leopards with a gun in the mountains alone.

So, it was with the combined help of medication and health-preserving exercises that Guan Laozi was able to recover his body's functions. It's hard to say how long he can live, but he should be able to live for a few years.

As for Grandpa, it was a different story. With the help of medicine and the properties of the [main house], his body functions gradually recovered, so he was pulled back from the brink of death.

Later, Taoist Sun began to give massage to his senior brother.

Fang Wei looked for a while and then left quietly.

the next day.

It was time for him and Pan Lianhua to go up the mountain to collect herbs. After half a month of hard work, they finally collected the amount of herbs needed by Chenzhou Chinese Medicine Hospital.

The buyer came to take the goods away and paid 2743 yuan in cash.

The harvest this time was slightly less because the types of products needed by the hospital were different each time, which led to changes in the amount.

This is normal, and Fang Wei doesn't mind. (End of this chapter)
