Reborn In The '80s

Yes,

grow vegetables,

It is an off-season vegetable.

Xu Zhao knew that whether it was a "vegetable greenhouse" or a "greenhouse vegetable", it was extremely rare in this village in this age of the world, so he told Dazhuang's father in a simple way that greenhouse vegetables had already appeared in the imperial capital, and the sales were good. Living standards are getting better and better, and off-season vegetables will become more and more popular.

What Xu Zhao said was well-founded and well-organized, and the gauze did not block Dazhuang's father's admiration. Dazhuang's father asked, "Xu Zhao, how do you know this?"

Xu Zhao asked back, "Brother Li, you don't know which school I went to in technical secondary school?"

"I really don't know which school you came from? I heard it's very good."

"Provincial Agricultural School." Xu Zhao replied.

"It's the provincial agricultural school! Agriculture is good. Our country is a big agricultural country." This "big agricultural country" was also heard by Dazhuang's father on the radio.

Xu Zhao nodded and said, "Yes, what I learned in school was about agriculture."

Knowledge is knowledge, practice is practice, Dazhuang's father was still a little worried, and asked: "But, you have never grown vegetables, can you do it?"

"How do you know if you don't try?"

Dazhuang's father thought about it, but still had some doubts in his heart, and said, "That's right, but, you have to try with an acre of land, in case you fail—"

"Brother Li, are you afraid of failure?" Xu Zhao looked at Dazhuang's father and asked.

Dazhuang's father immediately said proudly: "Afraid? Your Brother Li never knew what it means to be afraid?!"

Xu Zhao smiled and said, "That's okay, then follow me and try. In fact, Brother Li, you don't have to be afraid. If you succeed, you will be paid your wages. If you fail, your wages will not be reduced."

Hearing what Xu Zhao said, Dazhuang's father felt a little embarrassed. He felt that he was too cowardly. If he was a man, he couldn't be so cowardly. If he wanted to do it, he might succeed, but if he didn't, he would never succeed. Dazhuang's father thought very quickly. Turn around and say: "What are you talking about! Isn't it just one mu of land? If it is abolished, it will be abolished. Don't worry, with Brother Li here, you and Sanwazi won't be hungry."

Xu Zhao said sincerely, "Thank you, Brother Li."

"You're welcome, when shall we start?"

"Don't rush."

"No hurry?" Dazhuang's father asked in surprise.

"Yes, there is no rush. I have to prepare for the greenhouse. There are more urgent matters now."

"What's the matter?" Dad Zhuang asked.

"Build a house." Xu Zhao replied.

"What house to build? Where to build it?"

"Build a tile house next to your house."

"Are you going to build a tile house?"

"Correct!"

Then Xu Zhao told Dad Dazhuang about his ideas and budget, saying that he wanted to build three tile-roofed houses, a kitchen and a yard. The budget was 200 yuan, and he said that tomorrow he could hire someone to start filling up the wasteland. , began to lay the foundation, and after making an agreement with Dazhuang’s father, Xu Zhao breathed a sigh of relief, and Dazhuang’s father did not worry anymore. After Xu Zhao left, Dazhuang’s father happily said to Dazhuang’s mother: "I will follow Xu Zhao from now on, and I will not go out. .”

Dazhuang's mother asked, "What are you doing with Xu Zhao?"

Dazhuang's father said: "Grow vegetables and sell them in winter."

Dazhuang's mother just listened to a little bit of the conversation between Xu Zhao and Dazhuang's father, but she couldn't understand it comprehensively, so she couldn't help asking: "Is it possible?"

"Why not." Dazhuang's father said firmly, "Xu Zhao is a cultural person, and he studied agriculture, so he will definitely do it."

Dazhuang's mother smiled and pretended to be disgusted and said, "Yo, you can say it now. Didn't you still suspect Xu Zhao just now?"

"Am I skeptical? I was discussing, what do you know?"

"I don't understand, but you understand, you understand very well, does Xu Zhao understand?"

The husband and wife yelled at each other one by one.

At this time, Xu Zhao had returned home with Xu Fan in his arms, and confessed to Xu's parents and Xu's mother about growing greenhouse vegetables. Xu's parents and Xu's mother's first reaction was naturally repulsive, but the two elders knew that Xu Zhao was not a random person. These days, they could clearly see Xu Zhao's ability, and the elders didn't give any help, so Xu Zhao asked for an acre of greenhouse vegetables at this time, and the elders agreed after a little thought.

Xu Zhao asked in amazement: "Dad, Mom, are you really willing?" You must know that in this day and age, everyone values ​​the land very much. I thought Xu's father and Xu's mother were unwilling to vacate an acre of land.

Unexpectedly, Mother Xu said, "Of course I would."

Xu Zhao couldn't help asking, "Aren't you afraid that I'll spoil it?"

Xu's mother said: "If you smash it, you can smash it. My mother made you feel wronged before. In the future, my mother will support you in whatever you want to do."

Xu Zhao felt relieved instantly. It is a wonderful thing to have the support of his family. At this moment, Xu Fan followed suit and said, "I also support your father."

Xu Zhao lowered his head and asked, "Do you know what it means to support?"

"I do not know."

"I don't know and I'm talking nonsense."

Xu Fan hugged Xu Zhao's leg, giggling.

Xu Zhao looked at Xu's mother again and said, "Mom, then when planting wheat, let's set aside one mu of land, the one not far from the big farmer's house."

Mother Xu simply agreed: "Okay."

"Then go to bed early."

"You go to bed too."

But Xu Zhao didn't go to bed early. After returning to the hut, he lit the kerosene lamp, put Xu Fan on the bed, let Xu Fan play with the toy car glass ball by himself, told Xu Fan that he was busy and could not be disturbed, and then he sat on the kerosene lamp. Writing and drawing in front of the lamp, at this time he suddenly felt that in his previous life he worked everywhere to earn living expenses, so in addition to studying, he learned many life skills, which are actually used in this era.

Such as drawing pictures, such as accounting, such as understanding of crops, etc., but now he does not organize the vegetable greenhouse, but plans to build a tile-roofed house. After the area is estimated, Xu Zhao starts to draw the floor plan of the house and mark it. Points to note, and then gradually perfected, when everything was about the same, he put down the pen, turned his head and looked at the bed, where Xu Fan had fallen asleep with his toy car in his arms.

So nice.

Xu Zhao stepped forward, put the toy car, glass ball, and slingshot on the bed on the table, wiped Xu Fan's hands and face, and then went to sleep with Xu Fan in his arms.

The next morning, Xu Zhao woke up amidst the commotion, put on his clothes and went out to check, only to find a tractor parked at the intersection, with five or six men sitting on the tractor, surrounded by a dozen people, reluctantly saying goodbye look.

Xu Zhao asked Xu's mother in bewilderment, "Mom, what is this for?"

Xu's mother replied: "Those who go to other places to work, I heard that they can earn nearly 200 yuan in half a year. Xu Zuocheng also went."

"Xu Zuocheng?"

"Yes, I'm so embarrassed, I just walked in front of your dad and me, and deliberately said that the monthly salary is 30 yuan, and I look down on your dad and me."

"Make him laugh."

"That's right, let's go. One was locked up in the police station for three months, and the other went to work in other places. It happened to let us be quiet."

Xu Zhao couldn't help but went into the tractor to look, and happened to see Xu Zuocheng, Xu Zuocheng only knew that Xu Zhao made money selling moon cakes, but he didn't know how much money he made. If Xu Zhao only made five yuan a month selling popsicles, then he would also make money selling moon cakes. A 23, what is 23, he went to the city this time, it cost 30 yuan a month, when he came back, let alone 100 yuan in his pocket, 100 yuan, Xu Zuocheng can't think about it Feeling excited, when he looked at Xu Zhao, his eyes were filled with contempt.

Xu Zhao ignored him and watched the tractor leave Nanwan Village. He brought Xu Fan to the Dazhuang family. Besides Dazhuang’s father, the Dazhuang family also had other workers who built the house. , bricks and other issues.

After discussing for a whole morning, as soon as it was over, other people except Dazhuang's father began to use shovels and ox carts to fill in the pit and lay the foundation.

In the afternoon, the bricks and tiles from the kiln were delivered by oxcart by oxcart. At the same time, all the fine sand sieves, sand trowels, brick knives, tile knives, saws and other tools from the big dealers were also taken out. It immediately attracted the attention of the villagers, and many people discussed:

"What is this for? Who builds a house?"

"Xu Zhao's house is built, his thatched hut leaks when it rains, and it can't be lived in."

"Xu Zhao is rich."

"I don't have any money either. I made money selling moon cakes last time, but I heard from Dazhuang's father that he seems to be on credit. The main reason is that his two elder brothers who live in Wafang rubbed him too much. Move out, move out. good."

"It's good to move out. I also heard that Xu Zhao built the house on credit, so he must pay on credit. This house is not a small sum."

"..."

In fact, Xu Zhao didn't pay on credit, but Dazhuang's father didn't want people to know that Xu Zhao was so rich all of a sudden, so he would be envied by others, so he said it on purpose, Xu Zhao readily accepted, and then handed over the building of the house to Dazhuang's father, Xu's father, Xu's mother, and Xu Zhao began to think about planting vegetables, but before planting vegetables, he had to call Cui Qingfeng and tell Cui Qingfeng that he would not go to Fanxiaodian for the next two days, and the store would be managed by Let him watch.

But before he could call, Uncle Zhang ran over to Xu Zhao and told Xu Zhao that someone from the county called for him. Xu Zhao thought it was Cui Qingfeng, so he hurried over to answer it, but who knew it was Cui Dingchen.

Xu Zhao called out in surprise, "Uncle?"

Cui Dingchen's deep voice sounded from the other side: "Well, it's me."

"What's the matter?" Xu Zhao asked.

"That." Cui Dingchen hesitated and said, "You didn't return my checked handkerchief, did you?"

Only then did Xu Zhao think of it and said, "Ah, I'm sorry uncle, I forgot."

"Well, when will you come and pay me back?"

Xu Zhao secretly calculated the matter at hand and said, "Tomorrow."

"Are you busy?" Cui Dingchen asked.

"A little bit." Xu Zhao said in embarrassment.

"What are you busy with?"

"There is a house to be built at home, and there are other things."

"Oh." Cui Dingchen paused and asked, "When will you be here tomorrow?"

"Morning."

"Okay, let's do it in the morning."

"Well, I'm sorry, uncle."

"It's okay, that's it."

After hanging up the phone, Xu Zhao was taken aback for a moment. Cui Dingchen called just to ask for a checked handkerchief?This, this, this is like Xu Fan, Da Zhuang usually borrows a glass bead from Xu Fan to play with, and within a long time, Xu Fan will definitely run to get the glass beads back from the big dealer, lest Da Zhuang give his glass beads to others Yes, this... But on second thought, in this era, supplies are scarce, and everything is expensive, let alone a good-quality checked handkerchief, so Xu Zhao put away the handkerchief when he returned home.

In the morning of the next day, the weather suddenly turned cold, and summer clothes could no longer be worn. After Xu Zhao put Xu Fan on a long coat and trousers, he also changed into new clothes, new pants, and new shoes, washed his face and hair, Cleaned up.

Turning his head, he saw Xu Fan standing in front of the earthen wall, grabbing a mirror in the earthen wall, and Xu Fan in the mirror covered his fleshy face with his small hands and said, "Oh, I'm so pretty."

Xu Zhao: "..."

Xu Fan: "Oh, my new clothes look so good."

Xu Zhao: "..."

After looking in the mirror, he deliberately ran to Xu's father and Xu's mother and said that he was wearing new clothes, saying that his father bought them. Before Xu's parents and Xu's mother could praise him, he said that he was very good-looking, and he didn't know where he got his confidence .

Xu Zhao pushed a brand new bicycle and called, "Xu Fan."

Xu Fan responded in the hut: "Hey!"

"I went to the county seat."

"I'm going, I'm going too."

Xu Fan quickly ran out of the hut, ran to Xu Zhao's side in a familiar way, turned his back to Xu Zhao, then raised his small arms, let Xu Zhao hug the front bumper of the bicycle, and said as soon as he sat on it, "Dad, you look good. "

Xu Zhao said, "I know."

"I'm pretty too."

"Ah."

Xu Fan became quiet, and after a while, he called again: "Father."

"Huh?" Xu Zhao responded.

Xu Fan asked, "Shall we sell popsicles?"

Xu Zhao said, "No, it's getting cold, so I can't eat popsicles."

"I can't eat popsicles anymore."

"Yes, we don't sell popsicles anymore, we sell vegetables."

"We don't sell popsicles anymore, we sell vegetables!" Xu Fan imitated Xu Zhao.

"Correct!"

Along the way, Xu Fan learned from Xu Zhao's language, and soon arrived at the county seat. Because he came early, the small shop of Fan was not open yet. Xu Zhao drove Xu Fan straight to Cui's house, and as soon as he arrived at Cui's house, he saw someone arranging clothes in the yard. Cui Dingchen.

Cui Dingchen was slightly taken aback when he saw Xu Zhao.
