Chapter 57 The Raven Turns into a Phoenix(1/2)

As soon as the basket fell to the ground, all the piglets inside quickly came out. They were obviously frightened and ran away in all directions.

What Liu Qingshan was most worried about had indeed happened. These dozen piglets seemed to have blown up the camp, running so fast that it would be difficult to catch up.

"Hey, hey, hey--"

The boss of the car shouted at the top of his voice. The panicked little pig was stunned for a moment, and then he opened his ears and looked at the boss warily.

I saw the owner of the car squatting on the ground, chattering non-stop. Soon, a little piglet ran back.

The boss's uncle stretched out his hand and gently scratched the piglet's neck. The piglet also used its small nose to nudge the boss's trousers twice, leaving a water stain.

The little piglet loved to be tickled. It made a comfortable humming sound from its nose. Finally, after being tickled, it simply lay on the ground and enjoyed it.

The other little pigs slowly gathered around the boss, and the boss was in the middle, and the boss was overwhelmed with his hands.

Liu Qingshan and Gao Wenxu wanted to help, but he stopped them with gestures.

In the end, all the dozen piglets were coaxed back into the big basket by the carriage owner. Several people worked together to lift them onto the carriage again, and reconnected the broken ropes. Then they breathed a sigh of relief.

"Uncle Boss, you are still the best!"

Liu Qingshan was truly convinced now. He also understood that when the boss uncle was at the market, he caught the piglets with his own hands and wiped his hands on his pants seemingly casually.

It's not that you don't care about hygiene, but that you have the familiar smell of piglets on your body, and pig noses are very smart, so you can successfully conquer these little guys.

Each line of work has its own path, which needs to be slowly explored in practice and requires dedication to achieve the best.

Just like the greenhouse they are about to start building, they have no practical experience before and need to work harder.

After experiencing this incident, Liu Qingshan's mind, which had just been a little wandering, immediately calmed down again.

The rest of the journey went smoothly. When we returned to Jiapigou, many villagers gathered around them. When they saw these little piglets, they immediately went home to get ropes.

They tied up each piglet to recognize the new piglet. The pig pen had not been repaired yet, so it had to be tied up for a few days to prevent it from getting lost.

Tying a pig cannot be done casually. If you tie the legs, it is easy to strangle. It is even more difficult to tie the neck, as it may lead to strangulation, and there are not so many neck nooses.

The front legs and back should be tied together, just like wearing a harness. The later method of tying pet dogs was probably inspired by this aspect.

"Qingshan, the pig pen over there hasn't been finished yet. Why are you so busy buying pigs?"

The old branch secretary held a small pipe in his mouth and couldn't help but ask.

Liu Qingshan chuckled a few times: "Grandpa, Party Secretary, once our pigsty is built, the price of piglets will probably skyrocket."

We are all old farmers, so of course this principle is easy to understand.

The old party secretary slapped his thigh fiercely: "That's the truth. When the time comes, there will be so many people raising pigs that I'm afraid they won't even be able to grab the piglets."

Captain Zhang also added next to him: "There is a big market in the county tomorrow, so let's start early and send out a few large carriages to buy enough piglets at once."

The size of the pig farm under construction can probably raise 200 fattening pigs, and there are also about ten old sows.

In this era, it is considered a big pig farm. After all, each household can only raise two or three pigs per day.

Everyone studied for a while and all agreed. Liu Qingshan even suggested: "Buy as much as you have. If you have extra, you won't have to worry about selling it after a while!"

The uncle boss rolled his eyes and figured it out: "Haha, Qingshan, you are so clever. Let's buy low and sell high to make the difference."

"This won't be called speculation, right?"

The old party secretary was a steady man, so he asked a little worriedly.

These days, the law is not very sound, so many crimes that have no legal basis are lumped into speculation.

There was a saying at the time: Speculation is like a basket, and all kinds of sins can be put in it.

"Grandpa Party Secretary, don't worry. When the time comes, we are willing to sell the piglets to them, and they will have to accept our favor."

Liu Qingshan knew very well that the pig farm was not run by an individual. Who dared to label it as a village collective?

Everyone felt at ease now, and then discussed who would go to the county tomorrow. The eight generations in the family didn't even go to the county, so they all rushed to go.

Seeing how enthusiastic everyone was, Liu Qingshan no longer had to get involved. Just as he was about to go home with his eldest brother-in-law, he was grabbed by the boss's uncle again.

I saw the owner of the car raising his voice: "Everyone, be quiet, there is some great news, I will inform everyone!"

The crowd immediately fell silent. Boss Che pointed his finger at Gao Wenxue: "Literature has become very powerful this time. He has become a great writer and received more than 400 yuan in royalties. This is a shame for us Jiapigou!"

Bang bang bang, Liu Qingshan took the lead in clapping, and then everyone started to applaud after being stunned for a moment.

To be honest, the villagers really didn't like educated youths like Gao Wenxue in the past, thinking that they couldn't do farm work and that they couldn't do anything in the military.

But it's different now. They were all overwhelmed by the huge amount of royalties. They were thinking about it. In the whole Jiapigou, except Grandpa Guaizi, who could come up with this money?

Everyone also knew for the first time: It turns out that you can make money by playing with pens, and you can still make a lot of money.

Looking at everyone's eager eyes, Gao Wenxue also became excited. After so many years, he also needs the recognition of others. This has nothing to do with dignity, but the value of a man's survival.

"Thank you everyone, I will definitely continue to work hard and write more and better works in the future!"

Gao Wenxu blushed and bowed vigorously to everyone.

"A treat, a treat!"

Someone in the crowd started to boo, needless to say, it was Zhang Gongzi.

As a result, the old party secretary glared at him and immediately dared not say anything anymore. The old party secretary hated the iron and said: "Gangzi, you should learn from it!"

In the past, Zhang Ganzi and Gao Wenxue lived in the south and north of Kang. In the eyes of the villagers, these two people were indifferent to each other and were equated.

Now, Gao Wenxue suddenly soared into the sky, the crow turned into a phoenix, and the remaining Zhang Zhi became even more annoying.

"I also want to write articles and earn royalties, but I don't know how to read."

Zhang Gangzi spread his hands with an innocent look on his face.

Everyone laughed and cursed, saying that this guy was hopeless.

Only Liu Qingshan walked up and said, "Uncle Ganzi, there are thousands of ways to get rich. You can make money by raising pigs, raising chickens, growing land and vegetables. The key is to be willing to do it."

If I were willing to do it, would I be where I am now?

Zhang Gangzi also drooped his head and remained silent, and his heart gradually began to waver: He will be almost forty soon, and if he continues to be as messy as before, he will be like that in this life...

When Liu Qingshan and Gao Wenxue returned home, they were carrying large and small packages. Even Yang Hongying helped carry the things.

Lin Zhi, who was drying mushrooms in the yard, was frightened: "Why do you buy so many things, but you can't survive?"

The little fourth boy was so happy that he jumped up and down. She saw it: the yellow paper bag in the elder brother-in-law's hand must be glutinous rice sticks, and she could see that they were one stick after another!

"Mom, this is the fleece I bought for you. It's getting cold, so I need to add some clothes."

After entering the house and putting everything on the kang, Gao Wenxue picked up a sky blue sweater and held it in front of Lin Zhi with a very excited face.

Lin Zhi's eyes were filled with joy, and then she shook her head: "This color is too bright, I can wear it for a golden phoenix."

Liu Qingshan quickly came up to help persuade: "Mom, this is my elder brother-in-law's wish, just accept it."

Liu Jinfeng, on the other hand, couldn't help but put the fleece jacket on Lin Zhi's head, helped her mother put it on, and then said happily: "Putting this dress on, my mother will suddenly look ten years younger."

Lin Zhi smiled from ear to ear and reached out to pat Gao Wenxue's arm: "Wenxue, thank you, Mom."

Gao Wenxu felt his nose was a little sore. He hadn't been home for six or seven years since he came to Jiapigou. He felt that his mother-in-law at home was not as good to him as his mother-in-law.

No one in this family has ever treated him like an outsider.

Turning his back and wiping his eyes quietly, Gao Wenxu said with a smile on his face: "Old Four and Old Five, I bought this delicious food for you. If you want to eat anything in the future, just tell my elder brother-in-law and I will definitely buy it for you!"

The two little girls had happy faces.

At this time, grandparents also came after hearing the news. Gao Wenxue picked up two bottles of Xifeng wine: "Master, this is what I give to you as a filial piety."

The supply and marketing cooperative did not sell Moutai, so he bought the wine.

Then he picked up two cans of malted milk and said, "Milk, this is for you. I will buy it for you when you finish drinking it."

"You kid, why are you spending so much money on such expensive wine? It would be nice to just drink the Bishui Daqu produced in our county."

Liu Shikui muttered with some dissatisfaction.

Liu Qingshan came up to his grandfather and said with a smile: "Sir, the eldest brother-in-law is also very filial. If you don't drink, I will give it to the kidnapper later."

"How dare you!"

Liu Shikui opened his eyes and held the two cartons containing wine in his arms very preciously. This was Xifeng wine, which was also considered a famous wine.

After dividing the things, Gao Wenxue and Liu Qingshan took out all the money from Liu Qingshan's bag and placed it in front of Lin Zhi: "Mom, this is the royalties I got. I'll pay it to my family first."

so much?

Lin Zhi and others were also surprised.

Liu Qingshan was beating the drum beside him: "Brother-in-law, if you don't hand over this money to my sister, be careful..."

He was the one who should be careful. Before he could finish his words, Liu Jinfeng pinched his ear as soon as it hurt, causing Liu Qingshan to grimace and grin to the delight of others.

Even Yang Hongying looked at him narrowly and smiled, feeling envious in her heart: The relationship between these siblings is really good.

Facing Liu Jinfeng's clutches, Liu Qingshan had no choice but to give in and quickly changed the subject: "Sister, just don't look at it, what did my brother-in-law buy you?"

This trick worked really well. After Liu Jinfeng let go, he took a paper box from Gao Wenxue. After opening it, he immediately cheered: "Ah, iron!"

Inside was a silver-white iron with a stainless steel surface that was very shiny. Liu Jinfeng even said it several times, saying that his shirt and pants were all wrinkled after being washed.
