Crossing the Unknown Country

Chapter 234 Their generation is rich in both life and spirit

A few days later, Su He, his father and several other people took a car to the farm. They couldn't stay at home. Fu Man Lou's business was getting better and better. They had to supply them with good goods so that they could make more money. Since they had promised others, they couldn't break their promise.

They arrived at the farm and drove to the farm gate. Someone at the gate recognized them and called a child to tell the village head. When they arrived outside the yard, village head Wang had already come out to greet them. He came to the front of the car with a smile and helped Su He down.

Su He used his hand to jump down. He smiled and said, "Thank you, Uncle Wang. We came to see how the business is going."

Wang Zhuangtou smiled and said, "Just now a child came to tell me the news. That's how I knew you couldn't stay at home. Don't worry, business is good."

The others followed, and Su He's father asked Wang Zhuangtou to arrange accommodation for them, and they would live on the farm from now on. Everyone introduced themselves to each other, and Wang Zhuangtou asked his wife to make proper arrangements for these people.

Su He's father and Su He followed him into the house and sat down to talk about the recent noodle business. Wang Zhuangtou smiled and said, "Our business is so good that Fu Manlou requires us to deliver as many as possible each time. Dashan follows the eldest or second eldest brother to deliver goods, and he keeps a clear account."

Then he went to get the account book and handed it to Su He's father for review. Su He's father handed it to Su He and asked her to read it, while he continued to understand the situation with Wang Zhuangtou.

He asked, "Are there enough people now? Don't let it affect Zhuangzi's farm work."

Wang Zhuangtou said, "It's barely enough now. I said I'd send someone over when you come. Now you've brought someone over."

Su He's father nodded with satisfaction and said, "We'll go check out the fields and workshops later to see if there's anything else we need."

Wang Zhuangtou smiled and said, "You should go and have a look! Zhuangzi is really different now. It has changed a lot."

Head of the village Wang brought out a money box, which contained the silver that Fumanlou had paid over the past few days. The large amounts were in the form of silver notes, and there was also some loose change.

At this time, Su He finished reading the account book and found no problem. He counted the silver again, checked it with the account book, and then put it away with confidence.

Because the goods were delivered every three days, apart from buying some flour from the city, the rest was left on the farm, so there was no need to leave any money for the head of the village.

Su He's father drank tea with Wang Zhuangtou and talked about the extent of the crops in the fields, how many fruit trees had been planted, how the fish in the rice fields had been released, how the rice had been planted, and how many ducks had been bought.

Everyone was busy. The children watered the fruit trees, released the ducks, fed the chickens, and cleaned the chicken coop. The adults worked on the fields, applied compost, and the rest went to the workshop.

There was no idle person in the village now. Even the little people were feeding the earthworms, finding some rotten leaves to feed them. The brave children even caught bigger earthworms to feed the chickens.

Now because we have chickens and ducks, there are fewer pests and diseases in the fields. When we find insects, we drive them into the fields and they eat them directly.

Su He had no time to understand that modern people had already discovered the three-dimensional breeding technology, but for the sake of capital operation, pigs, chickens, ducks, and sheep had to be kept in pens. Isn't it just for the interests of some people? This way, the interests can be maximized. Environmental protection and healthy development are just clothes made for certain interest groups!

If environmental protection is so important, why do modern wars use so many bombs, spread so many bacteria, and cause serious nuclear pollution emissions? The emissions from these are like the comparison between the sea and the lake, compared to small amounts of livestock farming and fires for heating.

They completely ignored the basic rights of the common people and were so servile to capital that it was outrageous. Su He thought that it was not without benefits to be here. You can burn firewood as you like, raise chickens, ducks, fish and pigs as you like, as long as you have money, you can do whatever you want in your own territory.

After they had rested enough, they went to the workshop and the fields together. Just as Wang Zhuangtou said, there was vitality everywhere, people were working hard, and everyone was hardworking and satisfied.
