209. Chapter 209 News from the county


"What's the difference between this and giving it away for free?"

Lu Miao rolled her eyes at Geng Xiaoyun speechlessly, took out the key and unlocked the door.

“Yes, why not?”

Geng Xiaoyun said seriously:

“Isn’t that why I asked you to give me five cents as a gift if you don’t want it?”
< br>

Lu Miao opened the door and went into the room to pour her water:

"How refreshing you are. Others are willing to spend money to buy with you, but you are not willing."

Geng Xiaoyun He took over the enamel jar and took advantage of the situation. He sat down at the table and said with a hearty smile:

"Isn't it the same for you? You still have to push out the things that others give you and insist on spending money to buy them."

Lu Miao : "..."

Why do you look at them, they both seem to be a bit like the big enemy who takes the initiative?

But having said that, this era is backward and prices are indeed depreciating.

But valuable things are still valuable.

If you really want to buy this ginseng, one or two hundred dollars may not be enough.

Lu Miao wanted to buy it, but thinking about it carefully, there seemed to be no use for it.

Her stomach has been fine for a long time, and she usually eats well.

Besides, there are so many snow clams this time.

Dried snow clams weigh only five or six kilograms. She will eat a cup every day starting from today, and she may not be able to finish it until today next year.

You need to take supplements when you are pregnant, but taking too much supplements is not good for your health.

After thinking about it carefully, Lu Miao shook her head, "Let's forget it."

"You sit down for a while, and I'll get you some money."

The snow clam weighs a lot, but it's hard to tell whether it's five or six kilograms.

Lu Miao didn't bother with that point and calculated it directly as six pounds.

One dollar plus five kilograms of food stamps can be exchanged for two kilograms. Six kilograms is three yuan, plus fifteen kilograms of food stamps.

There are not many food stamps left at home.

Lu Miao collected ten kilograms of food stamps and gave an extra dollar to Geng Xiaoyun to make up for the shortage of food stamps.

Geng Xiaoyun felt uneasy with one dollar before, let alone such a large amount of money and food stamps this time.

“I brought you this thing, but you didn’t want it. How dare I accept it? I’ll send the money back and share it with my family. Can you please accept it?”

One of them didn't dare to accept money, and the other didn't dare to accept ginseng, both of them were afraid of losing money to each other.

After tugging for a long time, Lu Miao finally broke off a thin ginseng tendon from the split wild ginseng.

After a long conversation, Geng Xiaoyun turned around and walked away with the money.

At that time, Geng Xiaoyun felt that his head was heavy.

How can I give something away and still not be able to give it away?

Lu Miao breathed a sigh of relief, rummaged for a long time, separated some oil paper from the snack package he bought before, wrapped the ginseng whiskers, and put it in the cabinet at the end of the bed, Fu Jingyou's "treasure box" "Put it away.

Fu Jingyou came back in the afternoon, and Lu Miao told him about the snow clams sent by Geng Xiaoyun.

Fu Jingyou didn't care how much Lu Miao spent, but he heard that he didn't have many food stamps left when he returned home, so he went around to the back room to take a look at the rice vats.

Looking at how little fine grains were left inside, Lu Miao just started to think about going to the black market when Lu Miao mentioned the wild ginseng to him again.

"Huh? If it's really a good thing, you can buy it back just in case it's useful?"

"It's not that simple."

Lu Miaoyao Shaking his head, he explained to Fu Jingyou carefully:

"The best wild ginseng can be purchased for hundreds of dollars, and expensive ones can be found thousands of miles away. How can you say you want something so valuable?"

If you don't understand it, you won't accept it. Just accept it.

But she understands.

She can't do anything that goes against her conscience.

“I broke off a ginseng beard, so I took advantage and got her wish.” She said it carefully, and Fu Jingyou knew that he thought too simply, so he held it Holding her hand:

“You are right.”

Ginseng is a great tonic. Whether it is eaten or used as medicine, it must be taken in appropriate amounts.

If there is any problem, that ginseng whisker is enough.

Lu Miao curved her lips, and smiled at Fu Jingyou with her fair face.

Fighting for something is not about taking advantage.

What should be theirs is theirs.

It's not theirs. Even if you get it, you may not be able to get benefits or keep it.

Lu Miao didn't make dinner. This season is when the vegetable fields are rich in vegetable moss.

There is still some flour at home. She has already pinched the vegetable moss and is waiting for Fu Jingyou to come back to cook some gnocchi at night.

The young couple were busy working together. As soon as the fire in the stove was lit and burning vigorously, He Hongjin came over.

Lu Miao waved her hand and asked Fu Jingyou to go to the front room to see what was going on.

She lit the kerosene lamp and started working in front of the stove.

He Hongjin came here with news.

Nianbian commune and the county held several meetings one after another to organize some kind of equipment group based on the rumors from the county.

This time he gave the right words.

The county now has four quotas and wants to recruit people to learn skills.

There are only four places in the entire county. You can imagine how competitive it is, but it is not without conditions.

The conditions for participation are that young and middle-aged gay men must be given priority, and they must be literate.

As long as the men are still young, more than half of them have been screened out.

And if you have to be someone who can read, the range is much narrower.

Schools have been suspended for many years in the countryside. Except for some older people, there are not many young people who can read.

Fu Jingyou was brought out by He Hongjin, who had high expectations for him.

"The two brothers above you have entered the factory, and now this opportunity is prepared for you! Xiaoliu, you have to seize the opportunity!"

"The captain came over just now and said As long as you learn the skills, the county will arrange a job for you, and you will have an iron rice bowl!”

The work in the county is different from the work in the town. He Hongjin is not sure what the difference is in terms of form, but he knows one thing.

That is, the work in the county is not only impressive, but also brings a lot of money.

Isn’t he trying to make money?

Isn’t Lu Miao a squeamish person?

If we seize this opportunity, wouldn’t we get the best of both worlds?

Fu Jingyou tightened his fists and thought of this. He nodded and asked:

"Uncle, what exactly is this thing about? Should I do something to get involved?"

Although the campaign circle has been shrinking again and again, there must still be a lot of people participating.

If you want to be sure of success, you must do something and show off your advantages.

Otherwise there are so many people, why would they choose you?

He Hongjin paused, hissed and scratched the back of his head and said:

“I don’t know about this yet. The captain came here on his bicycle just now to inform me. I guess it’s still the notification stage. I’ll have to wait for two days, and I’ll still be informed.” There will be news.”

"You have a good physique, you are strong and you can read, you are good at work, and you have great advantages. Keep this in mind and don't worry too much. Let's see what happens in detail. Let’s talk.”

Fu Jingyou nodded.

Now we can only take one step at a time.

The election campaign hasn't even started yet, so there's no point worrying about it in advance.
