Xi Shunjin was a little surprised when he saw Zheng Bajin arriving and said, "Didn't I just plant it? Are you so anxious to recycle it?"
"Old Xi, can you plant it faster? I'm really looking forward to it." Zheng Bajin looked anxious.
"As you can see, I can't grow it alone." Xi Shunjin spread his hands and said helplessly.
Zheng Bajin was also speechless and pinched his eyebrows. He really blamed himself for not planning in advance.
He himself didn't know that Yang Laohui suddenly wanted to make this place a highlight of the city.
Apart from raising pigs, there is no industry that can bear fruit in the short term. After thinking about it, he said: "Old Xi, don't think about it. Please hire a few workers to help and sow the seeds within a few days." .At that time, even if it is not mature, part of it can be sold."
"To be honest, I have bought a hundred pigs, and now we are in a lean period, so the rice candy I purchased will not last long."
"Inviting people?" Xi Shunjin really never thought about it, but his eyes suddenly lit up and he said, "Of course you can hire people. In this village, there is no salary, as long as there are people who stutter, you can invite as many people as you want."
Zhang Xiaoyang glanced at Zheng Bajin, and the two exchanged glances. Zheng Bajin said: "This is not easy. Please hire someone to cook, and I will pay for the food."
Xi Shunjin said with some embarrassment: "It's hard to find someone to cook. I'm not good at cooking. My mother at home is old and I can't find a woman to cook."
Seeing that he didn't seem to be lying, Zheng Bajin nodded and said, "This is easy to handle. I'll hire someone to cook right away. You go to the village to hire a few people first. With five people on this piece of land, you can cook it." Sow the seeds first.”
Xi Shunjin knew what Zheng Bajin was thinking. Of course, it would be impossible for him to hire someone to loosen the soil and sow seeds at the same time as he did now. It must be mainly cabbage. Sow the seeds first and then slowly loosen the soil himself.
Zheng Bajin turned around and told Zhang Xiaoyang: "Okay, you stay here first and help Lao Xi plant some while I go back and get some food."
Zhang Xiaoyang didn't say anything, but went to help, tearing the seeds apart and scattering them in the potato rows.
Zheng Bajin quickly returned to the road, got on his motorcycle, and returned home in a flash. He first told Zhang Xiao'e to get ready, and he would cook with him later.
Zhang Xiao'e didn't know what Zheng Bajin was going to do, and when she was about to ask him, he had already ridden away on his motorcycle.
I had no choice but to pack up my things and tell Nian Jian about the matter.
He planned to plant all of Xi Shunjin's land and harvest it slowly. Since the people in the village could work without wages as long as they had something to eat, it would not be easy.
Zheng Bajin rode his motorcycle to the street and bought dozens of bags of vegetable seeds in one go under the envious eyes of people. When he came back, Zhang Xiaoe was already ready, including a few pots at home.
Zheng Bajin was stunned and asked her why she was thinking of preparing these things. He had never thought that if Xi Shunjin was so poor that he didn't even have a decent pot, would he have to borrow it from Haizi Village?
"I discussed it with the old man, and he said, you are so anxious to prepare things, and you still want me to cook. Is it because there is a sudden increase in manpower in the pig farm, and the workers still ask for food? Then of course you need to prepare a pot. Bowls and the like. Look, I've even prepared a fire and filled half a bag of coal." Zhang Xiao'e explained.
"He is still thoughtful, but he is not going to the pig farm, but to Haizi." Zheng Bajin said, taking off the vegetable seeds from the motorcycle, throwing them into the tractor, and then carrying a bag from home. Rice, a ham was thrown into the car. He glanced at Zhang Xiao'e who was confused and said, "Let's go and cook for two days first."
He really felt that this matter had been dealt with like this. Originally, he thought that the pie painted for Xi Shunjin was big enough, and he would ask someone to help him if he was too busy. When the time came, he would treat him as a supplier.
I didn't expect that they wouldn't invite anyone at all, so I had to go on my own.
Nian Jian'an came out of the canteen and happened to hear Zheng Bajin's words. He helped put the pots, bowls, coal and fire in the car and said, "Do you want me to follow and help?"
"No, just stay at home. Don't lose the business of the canteen. Just have me outside." Zheng Bajin had already started the tractor.
Zhang Xiao'e hurriedly got on the bus and followed Zheng Bajing on the bumpy journey until they arrived at Haizi Village. She saw a little fog rising on the mountain, and the fog turned into small drops of water on the potato leaves.
There are already four or five people helping to plant the land. They are using shovels to scrape up the soil on the ground, loosen it, and the vegetable seeds will naturally fall into the soil.
Seeing Zheng Bajin coming, these people became more motivated.
Zheng Bajin was too busy to put down the things in the car. Instead, he watched Zhang Xiaoyang scatter the seeds in the ground before letting these people loosen the soil. He couldn't help but frowned and said: "Xiaoyang, this is not good, let everyone do it first." After loosening the soil and spreading the seeds, there is no need to cover the soil. Vegetable seeds are no different than potatoes. They are smaller and can easily take root and germinate."
Others also nodded in agreement. They had wanted to interrupt Zhang Xiaoyang's operation before, but they had never dared to say that he was the master and they were just helping. There was no need to offend others.
Now, it sounds like Zheng Bajin is the boss and he is knowledgeable, so it is naturally in line with Zheng Bajin's suggestions.
Zhang Xiaoyang also came to his senses, stopped sowing seeds, and came over to help Zheng Bajin get his things.
Xi Shunjin looked at it and said hurriedly: "No need to put it down, just take it home and do it."
Zhang Xiaoyang had already understood what Zheng Bajin meant, which was to bury the pot in the ground to cook and not go to the house, so he was busy explaining.
It was not easy for Xi Shunjin to object. The initiative rested with others. Besides, the people he invited would help him loosen the soil for nothing, and he did not have to pay for his own food. He didn't suffer any loss, and even took advantage.
Seeing what Zheng Bajin got out of the car, including rice, meat, and authentic old ham, and even the charcoal fire, he became more motivated.
They can't remember. They haven't had oil for a long time?
Zheng Bajin asked: "Whose bucket is there? Go and pick up two buckets of water."
Someone volunteered to go home and fetch buckets of water.
Soon, he came back with a load of water, glanced at Zheng Bajin, with a smile on his simple face, and said: "Boss, why do you want to grow vegetables here? I heard that you are from Shili Village. Man, isn’t there flatter land there?”
"Hey, the land there can't withstand drought, so it has to be watered morning and night. Don't I raise more than a hundred pigs, and I need a lot of vegetables." Zheng Bajin said casually.
"Oh, that's right." The man scratched his messy hair and said with some embarrassment, "I am Xi Shunjin's cousin, my name is Xi Shunhai. I have grown some early cabbage at home and I can't finish it. Can I sell it to you directly? you?"
"Of course." Zheng Bajin couldn't help but his eyes lit up. There was someone who could grow vegetables ready-made, and he was really looking for it. He didn't have to worry about it himself.
"That's great. Please take me away after a while. I'm worried about my daughter's living expenses." Xi Shunhai's eyes also lit up.
"Oh, where is your daughter studying?" Zheng Bajin did not expect that the person in front of him, who looked ordinary and honest, would actually focus on educating his daughter instead of his son.
