Chapter Thirteen Now Stepping Forward 11

Wang Xiuzhen took the basket from the girl's hand and hung it on the mule. Seeing that she had not had much time to go home, she decided to walk back.

The green mule was very well-behaved and gentle. When the girl walked to it, she didn't move, but just looked at the girl with its watery eyes. The girl probably liked the green mule very much and used her hands to gently touch the head of the green mule. It was strange that the green mule seemed to be quite destined to be with the girl, but instead rubbed her head against the girl's hand.

When Jiang Xiuzhi saw that the green mule was close to the girl, she giggled: "Meizhi, why do you like green mule so much? Why would you let it carry you to Qinglin's house, and you can see it every day."

During the Republic of China, in rural areas, married a wife in sedan chairs to carry the bride. If the new wife's house is far away, most people will use large animals to carry the bride to a place closer to the groom's house and then change to a sedan chair to carry it.

Jiang Xiuzhi's words were a bit suggestive. The girl could not help but blush when she heard the words. She glanced at Li Qinglin with her eyes and said angrily to Jiang Xiuzhi: "Sister, what are you talking about?"

After saying that, he turned around and ran to the village.

Jiang Xiuzhi smiled and said, "This girl is still shy."

Then he turned his head and said to Li Qinglin, "Qinglin, this is my cousin, named Jiang Meizhi, is my cousin handsome?"

Li Qinglin didn't know how to answer, so he had to smile embarrassedly.

Liu Xiuzhen said, "I think Meizhi is not bad, she is a good girl!"

Jiang Xiuzhi said: "Mizhi may do it. What about the work in the field at home? I can take it and put it down? Today I went back to my parents' home. I heard from my family that there were several groups of matchmakers in the twelfth lunar month!"

Liu Xiuzhen said: "A family has a family that has a woman and a hundred families, and it is rare for good girls in every family."

Jiang Xiuzhi said: "Mizhi is not only capable, but I think she can also give birth! Second Aunt, look at her strong body, big breasts and big ass, maybe she can give birth to two in one child!"

Liu Xiuzhen nodded repeatedly, thinking it was true.

In the agricultural era, grain production is the main source of income. Cultivating grain on arable land requires strong labor, and only men can go to the field to do heavy farm work. If there are more laborers at home, there will be more people in that kind of land. The family has a greater chance of survival than those with less labor. Therefore, whether they will have a child or not is the primary condition for farmers to choose a wife.

Li Qinglin walked behind and listened to the discussions between his mother and Jiang Xiuzhi, and secretly felt like a girl was like a beast? Li Qinglin recalled the whole process of the matter and felt a hint of conspiracy in it.

It was already evening when I returned to Xiaolizhuang. The small village with only four families was naturally very quiet. Before I could reach the door of my house, I saw Li Wanxiang squatting at the door of the yard waiting for them to come back, as if very anxious. Sure enough, as soon as I saw Li Wanquan's face, Li Wanxiang said anxiously: "Wanquan, the price of cotton yarn has increased!"

Seeing his anxious look, Li Wanquan hurriedly said, "Don't be anxious, come in the house!"

After entering the house, Li Wanxiang explained the matter in detail. As Li Qinglin expected, the price of cotton yarn increased sharply during the Chinese New Year. The reason for the price increase was not because of other things, but because the military cotton cloth was tight, and then the price of cotton yarn increased.

After the September 18th Incident, the Northeast fell, and the Japanese invaders quickly pointed the finger at the North China region. At 9 p.m. on January 1, 1933, the Japanese army fired the first shot to invade North China at Yuguan, Funing County. From March to May, the Chinese and Japanese armies launched fierce battles along the Great Wall, known in history as the "Great Wall War of Resistance". Famous battles in the Great Wall War include the battle of Luo Wenyu in Xifengkou, the battle of Nantianmen in Gubeikou, and the battle of Lengkou.

Although the Northeast, Northwest, and Shanxi-Sui Army on the Great Wall front fought to the death, the Japanese army suffered a heavy blow, but the gap between weapons and equipment between China and Japan was huge. In addition, the National Government insisted on the policy of "staying home first with foreign resistance", the military and civilians on the front line did not receive strong support. After more than two months of fighting, the Chinese army was forced to evacuate the Great Wall. On May 31, 1933, China and Japan signed the Tanggu Agreement. China was forced to admit in fact that Japan occupied the Northeast and Rehe and placed Hebei East within the sphere of influence of the Japanese and puppet forces. At this point, the two armies of China and Japan were tensely fighting in North China, and the two armies continued to increase troops in North China. Both sides did everything possible to reserve strategic materials, preparing for the next battle to happen.

This time, the 29th Army of the former Northwest Army was the 29th Army of the former Northwest Army. The 29th Army is now stationed in the Beijing-Tianjin-Tang area. Since the defeat of the Central Plains War, the Northwest Army was incorporated by Zhang Xueliang's Northeast Army. Because it was a miscellaneous army and was opposed to Chiang, the weapons and equipment did not receive the support of the central government. The main combat weapons during the Great Wall War of Resistance were actually using the swords of the cold weapons era. In a blink of an eye, the troops were about to change their summer uniforms, and the 29th Army had not yet settled. The National Government could not change the 29th Army, so the 29th Army had to solve the problem by itself. The 29th Army lacked military expenditure and could not afford the military uniforms of Kaji cloth, so they had to turn to the second best and customize cheap local cloth uniforms. The cotton production in Henan Province is relatively large, and the cloth price is low. The orders for most of the summer uniforms of the 29th Army were placed in Henan Province.

Since ancient times, it can make money by spinning cotton, which can make Li Wanquan understand. In recent years, the price of hand-spinned cotton yarn has dropped, but it only makes less money than before. However, cotton yarn can increase its price and can be predicted by Li Qinglin, which is not something that ordinary people can do. Now Li Wanquan is a little admiring to Li Qinglin.

At this time, Li Wanxiang's wife also came. The upcoming wealth aroused everyone's enthusiasm. The four adults discussed the specific details of spinning in a slight manner. As a result, some had common opinions, some had different opinions, and some were unable to be unified.

Li Qinglin didn't say anything, but in fact he didn't feel good.

The price of cotton yarn has increased today because the army ordered military uniforms, and the army ordered military uniforms because the Japanese entered China. The people in front of us are now fanatical to make some money, and they have not realized what the situation will be like after the arrival of the Japanese. These farmers who only knew how to farm and feed for generations have experienced civil wars, bandits, and famines. From the bottom of their hearts, they think that if they are responsible, they will not be in danger of life. At worst, there will be some loss of property. Isn’t this what the chaotic times in the past? Li Qinglin knew that those invaders who were worse than beasts did in China. They have never been human, and they are not even worthy of the title of “people”. As long as you are a Chinese, no matter whether you are a poor person or not, they are the targets of their hunting. At this time, there is no difference between having money or not. Unarmed farmers can protect their lives. It is the greatest victory.

Faced with the coming bloody years, Li Qinglin was very helpless. "I would rather be a peaceful dog than a person in troubled times." Li Qinglin felt very sad.

When Liu Yuzhen saw that everyone was talking nonsense, she happened to see Li Qinglin thinking silently and said, "Don't make a fuss. There are thousands of people in the family, and the person in charge is the one. Let's hear what Qinglin has to do!"

With modern education and experience in private companies, Li Qinglin is naturally no problem for this kind of family workshop-style production arrangement. This kind of small workshop-style production requires streamlining the procurement, production, sales, and dividends. The second is to determine property rights from the beginning, and private property cannot be mixed with common property. This second article is particularly important. The dispute over property distribution rights of several families in China in later generations is because the ownership of the property rights in the early stage is unknown. After the company grows, the major shareholders compete for power and profit, resulting in the prosperous family business going bankrupt.

Seeing that everyone was listening to him, Li Qinglin said slowly: "First, I think the two families spent money to raise shares and buy cotton spinning together. The larger the cost, the lower the price of buying cotton, the lower the cost, and the more money you earn; Second, choose a good spinning site and prepare a few spinning wheels. The location I see is placed in my uncle's empty house, and it is empty anyway. Third, brothers settle the accounts clearly. Cotton, spinning wheels and other expenses can only be paid from the capital. In the future, all the property will be shared by the two companies, and all dividends will be distributed according to the share ratio; Fourth, everyone trusts each other and supervises each other. I think the matter of buying cotton and selling cotton yarn is jointly done by my father and uncle, and the production and settlement are jointly managed by my mother and second aunt. In addition, if you want to sell cotton once, you will be paid by the two companies according to the share ratio of the first combined shares. I will say so much. If you think it can be done, just do it."

Li Qinglin's knowledge was naturally not comparable to the four farmers of this era, so everyone nodded and said, "Central! Just do what Qinglin said."

Everyone's functions are arranged in place, and the rest is the details. Li Qinglin is unwilling to take care of those details. In fact, he can't control them now. He doesn't know where to buy cotton or where to make spinning wheels. Since he doesn't know anything, it's better to make adults worry.
