Rebirth of the New Farmers in the 1980s

Chapter 524 Can't Buy Pork, Buy Luncheon Meat

Farm reclamation companies and agricultural cooperatives are not the same system, but there is no difference between the two in terms of business. The stores of the company are also called supply and marketing cooperatives.

The shop in the 42nd Company is not that big, it might as well be two-thirds the size of the supply and marketing cooperative in the Wei Da Brigade, because the shops inside are piled up and look very messy due to the size.

Two salesmen, a man and a woman, were chatting.

The man is in his forties and the woman in her twenties.

Wan Feng still knew these two people.

Even if the man is the manager of the 42nd Supply and Marketing Cooperative, his surname is Tang, and everyone calls him Manager Tang.

The woman is the daughter of the company's maintenance company commander, her surname is Liu, but Wan Feng forgot her name.

Mr. Tang's family has six daughters and no son. He is a tragic figure.

In 1985, the county's foreign trade did not know which country bought Shanlihong for 15 cents a catty.

This purchase price was enough to make people fall into a state of madness at the time, and everyone went crazy at once, and Shanlihong, which was worthless in the mountains and plains before, became a favorite.

But there are standards for other people's acquisitions, not for small ones.

The Shanlihong here is very small because there are children picking it all year round, and the largest one is only the size of a finger.

These crazy people turned their attention to Maozi.

On the side of Maozi in the center between Sijitun and Dalinzi, there is a long Jiangxin island, which is an uninhabited island.

The Shanlihong on that island was not affected by anyone all the year round, so the Shanlihong's size was a little bit strange, not inferior in size to Hawthorn.

When fishermen who were fishing on the river went to the island to pick, people's crazy eyes shifted to the Jiangxin Island.

In the later period, these people even had records of running to the Maozi territory on the other side to pick them.

Those fishing boats in the river started the business of ferrying people to Jiangxin Island to pick mountain reds. It costs one yuan for each person to go back and forth, and one yuan for things.

The boat is a wooden boat with a length of five or six meters. There are two oars on board, and people sit on the boat to pull the oars forward.

People on the Longjiang River call this kind of boat Weihu, which means very small.

At that time, there were only four of the forty-two Dalinzi belts on the riverside. At this time, none of them were fishing, and they were transporting people back and forth to Jiangxin Island to pick Shanlihong.

At that time, fish cost 1.23 cents a catty, and a boat might not be able to earn 10 or 8 yuan by fishing for a day. It is much easier to send people back and forth to make money.

Two trips a day, even if you send five people in one boat, the round trip will cost you ten yuan, plus Shanlihong for ten people will cost you another twenty yuan.

Some profit-minded people send three boats there for 30 yuan, which is much better than fishing.

So in those days, dozens of people gathered by the river every day to run back and forth by boat.

Manager Tang and his wife also joined the army of picking and selling Shanlihong. The couple went to Jiangxin Island and could pick more than 100 catties of Shanlihong a day.

After deducting the three yuan round-trip boat fare, there are more than ten yuan left.

Tragedy happened at this time.

The half of the river from the riverside to Jiangxin Island is nicknamed Dagunianggou.

A few years ago, when a boat of female educated youths returned to Qingniandian at night, they were detained in the river because they were carrying the boat. Seven of the nine people on board died. That's how Dagunianggou was called.

Since then, there has been a taboo for fishing in this popular boat, and there should be no more than seven people on a boat.

But on this day, whether it was because the owner of the boat was obsessed with money or the people on the boat lost their minds, there were exactly nine people on board the boat that Manager Tang and his wife boarded.

Something happened when I went there, and the boat capsized when it reached the center of the tributary.

None of the nine people in the boat survived.

Manager Tang and his wife died for money, leaving behind a family of five or six daughters.

Wan Feng looked at Manager Tang very strangely now. Except for him, no one in the 42nd Company would have thought that the couple would go west together in a few years.

He wondered if he should remind them in the future?

Things may not necessarily develop like this, maybe they will hide when there are some changes. After all, Wan Feng has seen the changes now, and many people he has never known have appeared.

Isn't this a change?

Let's wait until 1985. It's still a few years away. Even if there is no change, it will not be too late to remind them.

Manager Tang and the girl surnamed Liu didn't take it seriously when they saw the two children coming in, and continued their story.

"Sister, what do you want to buy? Tell me what you like."

"I want to buy a new pencil case, a new book and a new pen."

Wan Feng was very happy to hear this request. Is his sister asking for progress? But she doesn't seem to have even graduated from middle school!

Wan Fang picked out a tin pencil case that she thought looked the best on the surface, and bought a dozen newly arrived pencils with floral skins.
