Chapter 391
And fertilizer.
Every year, several brigades get into fights over fertilizer.
That is an issue related to their food production.
The captain continued: "It will be fine even if the surrounding brigades learn our technology. We can still sell vegetables to other places. My son has already communicated with the transportation station. As long as we have relationships with units in big cities, If we cooperate, the transportation station can send a truck to help us haul vegetables.”
It's great to not have to worry about sales and transportation issues, and everyone can feel completely relaxed.
"Liu Zhiqing, I have to leave it to you to discuss sales this year."
Liu Linlin nodded: "Don't worry, captain, I will definitely be able to get the bill of goods!"
Gao Le also patted his chest and promised: "If this place wasn't far away from my home, I could take care of all the vegetable orders for our team."
The two young masters, Gao Le and Zhao Su, are not good at work, and they are not good at teaching children to read, but they are as good as anyone in getting orders.
The two of them have a high level of family education, so that even when they face the leaders of big factories or even the public security bureau, they will not be frightened and can even talk freely.
I took this job entirely because it was too boring to be in the countryside. It would be nice to take the opportunity to go shopping in a big city.
Also, if you bring an order to the brigade, they will be paid.
With the money they earned, they could even send telegrams or write letters back home to show off.
It’s not like they’ve accomplished nothing, can’t they all make money?
The team leader immediately held a meeting to calculate how many vegetables to grow this year, what types of vegetables to grow, and how many orders to place.
These can all be roughly calculated based on the previous two experiences.
Song Wei was not involved in this matter.
She was sleepy and wanted to sleep. It was impossible for her to help grow vegetables and run orders anyway.
Lin Zhen spoke to the captain and sent Song Wei back to sleep.
After Song Wei fell asleep, Lin Zhen tucked her in before leaving.
After the meeting, everyone got busy in an enthusiastic and orderly manner.
Song Wei occasionally wandered over to take a look.
The weather was getting colder and colder, so Lin Zhen dug out the furs he had accumulated this year.
They are all tanned fur.
Among them were three snow-white rabbit skins, and one with two mink skins.
The two minks were prey caught by the wolves. They didn't want the meat, so Lin Zhen took the mink skins and gave the meat to the wolves.
"Use these leathers to make a scarf, a hat and gloves."
He took out the mink skin and said, "This is used as a scarf, and the white rabbit skin is used as gloves?"
Song Wei leaned on him and shook his head: "No, I want to use white rabbit skin as a scarf. It looks good."
"Anything works."
"The white rabbit skin is enough to make a scarf and gloves. I will keep the mink skin first, and the remaining gray rabbit skin will be used to make a hat. Not only do I want it, but you also need it for Christmas Eve."
As for the two unborn babies, Song Wei planned to use soft and fine wool to hook two identical little hats.
Song Wei's belly is getting bigger now, and she doesn't like to walk outside.
I sit at home, listen to the radio, do some small crafts, and occasionally write two articles when inspiration comes, which is not boring at all.
She took it upon herself to make scarves and hats.
Although Lin Zhen is at home, he has to go out and be busy every day.
Before the first snow fell here, Song Wei's rabbit skin hat was ready.
She tried her best to choose the same color to make a hat, so that the colors would not look too confusing.
The dark gray one belongs to Lin Zhen and has the biggest hat.
The light gray one is her own, slightly smaller.
The last and smallest one belongs to Lin Pingan, which is also light gray.
Only she has the white rabbit skin scarf.
As for gloves, she made a pair for Lin Zhen and Lin Ping'an last year, and they are still in good condition, so she doesn't bother to make them anymore.
Her gloves were a combination of deerskin and rabbit skin, which looked nice and was warm. Lin Zhen put it on her as soon as it was ready.
It made Song Wei look furry, warm and well-behaved.
Lin Zhen was extremely satisfied holding the person in his arms.
"Is it going to snow?"
Song Wei looked at the sky outside: "I don't know how my eldest brother and uncle are doing."
She wrote letters to both of them after she became pregnant, and they also sent letters back during this period.
"Don't worry, the policy is much more relaxed now, and the old squad leader is also taking care of my uncle. He should be much more relaxed this year than in previous years."
Song Wei nodded and looked down at his belly again.
"Two months to nine months."
Ji Lao said that although the pregnancy is ten months, the child may be born early in the case of twins.
So you have to prepare in the ninth month.
She was very lucky and did not suffer from nutritional deficiencies like most rural women during pregnancy.
Lin Zhen tried his best to cook delicious food for her almost every day.
After eating, I took her outside for a walk.
Almost every detail was taken care of.
According to many women in the village, they have never seen a man who takes such good care of his wife.
Then many women in the village felt sad and unconvinced under such a comparison. When they returned home, they would drag their men to nag about Lin Zhen.
When Song Wei chatted with the little old ladies, he could hear their teasing almost every time.
Song Wei said that if Lin Zhen was really not good to her, she could just kick him!
As for Lin Zhen, he would always be stared at by a group of men with resentful eyes.
But no matter what people outside thought, the two of them lived happily every day with Lin Pingan.
At night, there was a rustling sound outside.
Song Wei woke up in the middle of the night and listened to the sounds outside and made a guess.
Lin Zhen also woke up when she sat up.
"What's wrong? Do you need to go to the toilet?"
Song Wei nodded and yawned: "Do you think it's snowing outside?"
Lin Zhen stood up, opened a little window and took a look: "Yes, it rained quite hard."
He quickly closed the window and touched the kang.
After helping Song Wei to go to the toilet and coming back, he put on a military coat and went outside to light a fire. The kang couldn't get cold.
The cooling weather outside did not affect Song Wei's sleep quality. She lay back down and fell asleep in Lin Zhen's arms.
When she woke up the next day, Lin Zhen had already boiled hot water and brought it in for her to wash her face. He also handed her a bottle of cream.
"The kang is too dry and it's not good for your skin. Just wipe it after washing your face."
Song let out a slight oh.
"Wipe it too, your face is too dry and feels uncomfortable to the touch."
Lin Zhen's ears turned slightly red. He seemed to have been teased by his wife.
Song looked at him with a smile.
"I'm going to cook."
After saying that, Lin Zhen strode away.
Song Wei hummed a song and slowly applied the cream on her face after washing her face.
After wiping my face and hands, I took a small lump in my hand and left for the kitchen.
"Lower your head."
Lin Zhen bowed his head obediently.
Song Wei spread the snow cream on her hands and rubbed it on his big face.
