In the supply and marketing cooperative, Lin Nianhe stood in front of a pile of eggs with a small stool, thinking about a very serious question——
If she slipped and fell into a pile of eggs, how would she count the eggs she crushed? How to compensate? Count egg yolks or spell egg shells?
The salesperson next to him looked at Lin Nianhe, who was looking thoughtful, and couldn't help comforting him: "Little comrade, are the eggs particularly difficult to choose? How about I help you?"
Feng Yuanshan wrote a very detailed letter of introduction to Kai. The leader of the supply and marketing cooperative did not care whether the eggs sold were fertilized eggs or not, as long as the number was correct, so he waved his hand and asked Lin Nianhe to go directly to the warehouse to pick. Don't stand at the counter and attract attention.
Lin Nianhe came to his senses and said quickly: "No, no, it's not difficult. I can pick it up in a moment."
As she spoke, she stuffed a few White Rabbit toffees into the salesperson's hand, and Nuonuo asked, "Sister, can I buy some more eggs?"
The salesperson hesitated: "This..."
Eggs in supply and marketing cooperatives are in short supply. Without luck or opportunity, you may not be able to buy an egg in a month.
Lin Nianhe blinked, his wet eyes seemed to be filled with tears: "Sister, I know I may have embarrassed you a little by saying this. I'm really sorry... I just thought that I could buy some eggs for the children in our village and go back to make up for them. To replenish our health, our principal has been exchanging eggs with the villagers since last week. We saved up until today and only gave one quarter to a student..."
"Well, we really have no choice. The countryside is poor and the children are all skinny. I teach first grade, and the six or seven-year-old children in our class walk several miles to school hungry early in the morning. I'm really afraid that they will carry it. Can’t stop…”
The salesperson's tears fell much faster than Lin Nianhe's: "Sister, stop talking, just buy it, and I'll apply to the leader right away!"
After the salesperson finished speaking, he didn't give Lin Nianhe a chance to refuse, and ran away shaking his pigtails.
Lin Nianhe looked around and saw no one around, and then he breathed a long sigh of relief.
She was staring here, and it was really hard for her to change things.
Lin Nianhe counted, picked out thirty eggs from the egg basket in the warehouse, put them into the space, and put the fertilized eggs in the space into the backpack.
When the salesperson came back with the approval note from the boss, Lin Nianhe was looking at the eggs with a flashlight in a decent manner.
She waved the approval slip in her hand and said, "Sister, you buy it, the director has approved fifty!"
"Really? Thank you so much!"
Lin Nianhe carefully put down the eggs and bowed to the salesperson: "Thank you on behalf of the children!"
"It's okay, it's just a matter of words." The salesperson waved his hand and said, "If you want to buy eggs in the future, just come to me."
"This...is too troublesome for you..."
"It's okay, the director is my second uncle."
"Well……"
What else could Lin Nianhe say?
She could only count another fifty eggs silently and put them into the basket with straw separated them.
After giving the money and chatting for a few words with the director's niece, Lin Nianhe left the supply and marketing cooperative with a basket on his back.
On the way back to the Shili Brigade, Lin Nianhe found a gap in the road where there was no one around, and quickly replaced all the eggs in the basket with fertilized eggs.
When she returned to school, she happened to catch up with the students in her class after their physical education class.
Wen Lan was standing by the water tank, holding a gourd and ladle, saying, "Come here, wash your hands before you go play."
Lin Nianhe put the basket on his back and walked over to ask Wen Lan, "Are you all obedient?"
Wen Lan glanced at her, as if to say: You have to be honest in front of me, let alone your student.
Lin Nianhe twitched the corner of his mouth, casually rubbed the little head of Qu Xia who was closest to her, and said, "Listen to Teacher Wen and wash your hands before going back."
"good."
The children's little faces were flushed, and their eyes were extremely bright.
Lin Nianhe was in a good mood and carried a basket on his back to Principal Wu's room. When he saw her writing something, he said, "Principal, I'm back."
"Um."
Principal Wu responded first, finished writing a sentence, then capped his pen and asked her, "What did Lao Feng say?"
"Uncle Feng said, as long as we can get chickens, we can raise as many chickens as we want." Lin Nianhe said, putting the basket on his back, "Well, these are fertilized eggs. If we hatch them out, we will have chickens." Chicken boy."
Principal Wu was dumbfounded.
She stared at the basket full of eggs with wide eyes and asked, "How many are these?"
"Eighty." Lin Nianhe wiped the sweat from his forehead, "Principal, please agree in advance that I don't know how to hatch chickens. You have to ask the captain to ask which aunt has this ability."
Principal Wu didn't hear the second half of her words at all. She carefully reached out and picked up an egg, holding it in both hands as if she was holding the future.
She asked: "Lao Feng really asked us to raise so many chickens?"
"Well, what did he say? He can raise as many as he can. If the commune has any objections, he will go sit in front of the leaders and sit in meditation."
Lin Nianhe put his hands on his hips and sighed: "Uncle Feng is such a good man!"
The corners of Principal Wu's mouth twitched twice.
She assured that Lao Feng’s original intention was definitely not to let them raise eighty chickens.
No, it should be said that Lao Feng never imagined that they could raise eighty chickens.
At this point, Lin Nianhe also said: "I will go to the supply and marketing cooperative again tomorrow morning and pick out twenty fertilized eggs as soon as possible to make them whole."
Principal Wu looked at her with complicated eyes: "Nianhe, are you sure?"
"Sure." Lin Nianhe nodded.
"How to feed them?" Principal Wu was dumbfounded. "Just feeding them is not a small job. How to handle them?"
One hundred chickens were too tiring for her to serve.
"Well," Lin Nianhe said, "When we build the chicken shed, we divide it into six. Each class divides the chickens according to the number of people. Whoever owns the chickens is responsible for it. You can take care of the rest."
"There won't be a chicken plague, right?" Principal Wu was still a little worried.
She had never raised so many chickens before, and she was very panicked.
"Principal, you stopped eating because of choking." Lin Nianhe reminded her with a smile.
Principal Wu hesitated for a moment, then slapped his forehead: "It's not that good. Let's talk about the trouble. As long as you can raise it and lay an egg, it won't be a loss."
Principal Wu subconsciously ignored the labor cost, because at this time, people's work is the least valuable.
Lin Nianhe smiled and said, "Then you go and study with the captain about hatching chicks. I have to go to class."
"Okay, go ahead."
Seeing Principal Wu leave, Lin Nianhe smiled and went to the kitchen to pour himself a cup of hot water, then slowly returned to the classroom with the enamel vat in hand.
Facts have proved that it was not Principal Wu who thought too much. Even Li Dahe was so frightened that he almost fell off the bed when he heard about it.
"Good guy, this isn't, this isn't...how can this be done? Why is Girl Lin so brave!"
Li Dahe smoothed his hair and his face wrinkled into a walnut skin.
This time, it was Principal Wu's turn to comfort him. Putting aside Feng Yuanshan's words, the corners of Li Dahe's mouth twitched.
For a long time, he rubbed his pipe and pot and whispered softly: "This leader is also very unlucky... Please don't let Lin Yatou go to the commune in the future. Those old men are not in good health, so don't let her get angry."
