Chapter 651 Han Xiaohao Makes Money, South Korea's Rich Worries(1/2)
"Dongzi, can I give this oil evenly to me."
Chuanhua was moved when she saw these two large buckets of rapeseed oil. This year, she added a fat boy to her family, thinking about frying some cakes at the end of the year to worship their ancestors.
"It's true, I can't use that much if I have fewer family members. How much do you want, Aunt Chuanhua?"
"Is ten kilograms enough?"
"Too much, too much, three or four pounds."
"I'll go home and get the oil jar."
Listening to the crowd, there were also a few people who were interested in asking Li Dong if he could evenly give them. "I will leave a bucket of oil. If you want this bucket of oil, then you can evenly and divide it."
"That's great."
Usually, when buying oil, you need oil tickets, but you have to exchange it for grain. Most of the time, you are reluctant to let it go. When buying meat, you usually make some fat meat and some lard. When cooking vegetables, you can buy some vegetables like Li Dong to make two big buckets of rapeseed oil at once.
"Whoever wants it, please pack it with a can."
Speaking, Li Dong brought one of the barrels of oil into the house for his own household use, and the other barrel was placed at the door. Li Dong packed up the other food and use, and took it a box and brought it back to greet everyone.
"Xiaojuan, why aren't there many people in the village?"
"Mr. Guofu led everyone into the mountains to dig winter bamboo shoots."
No wonder Han Weiguo was not there, only a few kids and a few women at home. "Xiaojuan, why are you not at home at home?"
"I've gone to the bamboo weaving factory."
Xiaojuan had to clean up her house and wanted to go there, but she never thought that Li Dong would come back.
"Brother Dong."
Just as he was talking, Gao Xiaoqin came over with the child and Aunt Chuanhua. "This kid is chubby, come and laugh."
He was wearing a tiger-head hat, a flowery jacket, and a tiger-headed shoes. He was very cute, and Li Dong giggled.
The fat guy was quite fun these three or four months ago. Li Dong took it and hugged it for a while until everyone came with the oil can and then handed the little guy back to Gao Xiaoqin.
Weigh the jars and pour oil. One or two pounds for the family, two or three pounds. Not to mention that Hanzhuang is rich now, it takes a while for this barrel of oil to be evenly distributed.
"Dongzi, give me half a pound of oil."
"Okay."
When Li Dong said that, he poured the oil on. When the fifth lady saw it, she said, "There are too many, too many, half a pound."
"Isn't this just half a pound?"
Li Dong smiled and took the 50 cents and found a cent to go back.
"This kid, this won't work. I'll go home and get you money." After much persuasion, Wumei went back with the oil jar and didn't say anything about the money. After a while, she came back with a bowl. "I pickled some radishes and made persimmon cakes. You kid try it."
"Good stuff, then I'm not polite. This good stuff can't be eaten outside."
I took it over and handed it to Xiaojuan, put it at home, and returned the bowl to my fifth breast.
"elder brother."
I was sending my five-mistress out and meeting Zhang Baosu who was rushing back. "Isn't it that I'm going to study hard, why did I go to the bamboo weaving factory again?"
"whee."
"Why are you still wearing this jacket?"
This jacket was brought by Zhang Baosu last year. It is not a problem to have too many patches. Now there are nine out of ten patched clothes in rural areas, ninety-nine out of 100, and the only one is a cadre. Patches are not a strange thing in rural areas, and it is rare to wear them, but this jacket has long been no longer warm.
“The weather is good today and it’s not cold anymore.”
Zhang Baosu said.
"There is no new jacket at home."
"You can't wear new clothes when working."
Zhang Baosu is not even a temporary worker. He has no work clothes and weaves bamboo weaving. If he accidentally hangs new clothes and pulls new clothes, he will be very upset. "I'll get you some thick fabrics and make you a set of work clothes, and then I will wear new jackets in the work clothes."
How can this old jacket not be cold when worn, and its lips are frozen and blue. It is not particularly cold in winter before the 1940s.
"Fast come in and change your clothes."
"Um."
Waiting for Zhang Baosu to change his clothes, Li Dong asked about her and Xiaojuan's recent study situation, and they made great progress. "I brought some books back and I can read them if I have free time."
Some world-class masterpieces are pretty good, and there are some master books in the Republic of China, as well as some books that compare English and Chinese. You can learn English while reading books.
As we chatted, we forgot the time until Wumei came back and had not cooked the lunch yet. "Brother, you rest, let's make it."
The three girls rushed to cook, and Li Dong could eat ready-made ones when he saw it. "I brought the bacon back, and it happened to stir-fry winter bamboo shoots and beef stewed potatoes."
“The beef stewed potatoes can’t catch up.”
"Then make some egg soup, stir-fry bacon and winter bamboo shoots, and then add a side dish. I will make hot pot in the evening. This time I brought a lot of beef, mutton and meatballs." Li Dong said with a smile.
Several girls nodded and went to cook. Li Dong poured a cup of tea and sat down. Han Weiguo, Han Weidong, and Han Weichao came here.
"Brother Dong."
"I'm back, how about it? How many winter bamboo shoots have been dug today."
"It's done."
Recently, some of the better farmers in Lishan Commune have organized to dig winter bamboo shoots into the mountains to deliver bamboo shoot factories to make some money, and make more money before going up the river. "Will you still enter the mountains in the afternoon?"
"Enter the mountain."
"We will go to the riverside work in a few days, and dig more in these days."
"Why is the river worker so late this year?"
"There has been a few rains this year, so we can't wait for the river to dry up before we can start work."
“That’s true.”
Li Dong thought that his family also wanted to go to the river work, and his household registration was not moved away, so he still went to the river work, so of course he could pay for the work. "How many people are going to go to the river work in our village this time?"
"Everyone didn't want to go, but after stipulation, they should go at least 90%."
There is no way. Now there are some families in Hanzhuang who don’t want to go. Whether it is a bamboo weaving factory or a bamboo shoot factory, the wages are not low, which is much more comfortable than Shanghe Workers. "Uncle Guofu found Secretary Liang and said that the factory cannot do without so many people, so he won some places."
"That's fine."
"Who are you going?"
"Wei and I went to the front."
Han Weidong said that Han Weiguo didn’t go this time, and he had a little kid at home, so he didn’t want one.
"Digging turtles like this, please help me collect some eels."
The three of them have been doing this. Li Dong usually gives a commission of one pound and five cents. This requires a lot of money, and collects two or three hundred pounds. This can earn more than ten or twenty yuan. "Okay."
After chatting for a while, Li Dong remembered something.
"It just so happened that I brought back the watch you mentioned last time."
Han Weichao and Han Weidong plan to get married in the twelfth lunar month. Last time I talked about watches, Li Dong brought them back this time.
"Thank you, Brother Dong."
The two were happy and agreed to give the money to Li Dong when the bamboo weaving factory distributed dividends.
Two ordinary watches are relatively cheap, so the dividends are definitely enough for them, and maybe they can still have some money left.
In fact, at the beginning, Li Dong didn't plan to ask for money, just like a gift, but when he thought that this watch was cheaper, two yuan, one or two hundred yuan, it was too scary, so it would be better to have a four-piece set as a gift.
Han Weichao and Han Weidong took the watch and couldn't sit still. "Okay, send the watch back first."
"Then, Brother Dong, let's come back."
The two of them went out, and Han Weiguo was about to go back. Li Dong took out the children's tricycle and handed it to him. "Brother Dong, this is too expensive."
"What's expensive, something twenty or thirty yuan."
Han Weiguo said nothing, but Li Dong could not ask for anything. When he heard this, he said, "Then he went back to Uncle Guosheng and gave me a piece of game. Okay, that's it."
"Oh well."
Where is a game leg worth twenty or thirty yuan? The meat of wild deer, wild deer, wild deer, etc. is not oily and water-free, and the price is much cheaper than pork. A leg costs up to three or four yuan at seven or eight pounds.
When he got home, Gao Xiaoqin saw that the children's tricycle was not good enough. This question was specially bought by Li Dong from Shanghai. "How much does it cost?"
"Brother Dong didn't ask for money."
"This is quite expensive."
"More than thirty yuan."
"How can this work?"
"Brother Dong doesn't want it, I can't do anything."
Uncle Guosheng and Aunt Chuanhua came back and heard about this. They brought the items for more than 30 yuan from Shanghai. If you don’t have any money, how can you? "You said Dongzi wants to have a leg, so that's how. Let's go back and we go to the mountains to put a few condoms to try our luck to see if we can catch a wild deer."
