Chapter 418 Extra 1
After Song Wei's month stabilized, Lin Zhen also went to the team leader to tell him about the processing of pine nuts.
The captain was a little skeptical: "Well, if pine nuts are not available everywhere, will anyone really buy them if they are so hard to chew?"
Even their own people here get some and fry it during the Chinese New Year.
Pine trees are not found everywhere? No matter how he thought about it, he felt that this was unreliable.
Lin Zhen: "But the pine nuts here are bigger and have more advantages than those in other places. Everyone wants to eat something good during the Chinese New Year, especially now that the country's economy has developed, and many city people are willing to spend money to buy those fresh pine nuts. The taste of pine nuts is more fragrant than melon seeds. It is also good to entertain guests during the Chinese New Year. ”
After listening to Lin Zhen's words, the captain gritted his teeth: "Then I'll ask everyone. If everyone thinks it's OK, then let's do it!"
After all, the pine nuts were produced in the form of a rural cooperative, so everyone had to be notified.
Like the captain, many people think this is a bit unreliable.
"Pine nuts are so small, how many can be taken out of a pine cone? The pine cone is hung high, so it is dangerous to climb the tree. How much does it cost per kilogram to earn back the original value?"
Lin Zhen: "They are definitely two or three times more expensive than melon seeds. The sales of pine nuts can go to relatively wealthy cities, such as Zhejiang Province and Beijing City. I can help with sales. You can try it.

If the results are good and the market opens up, everyone in our village will have an extra income. Maybe pine nuts will become our specialty. If the results are not good, it will be a waste of manpower for a period of time. The pine nuts are free for those who climb trees to pick pine cones. You should pay attention when..."
After Lin Zhen expressed his thoughts, the captain also said.
"Lin Zhen is right. He doesn't make any money by doing this all for the sake of our team. He doesn't need the money either, just to make our fellow villagers rich. Maybe we can give it a try boldly!"
Someone below raised their hands: "Captain, I'm following this. I believe Brother Lin Zhen. Even if we don't make any money, we will only lose some labor force and still get so many pine nuts in vain. It's not a loss!"
"I also agree. Anyway, the pine cone is ready-made, and we country people have plenty of strength."
More and more people are getting involved.
After that, Lin Zhen handed over the home field to the captain. He did not plan to participate in the production of pine nuts.
But he can cooperate with the brigade in the name of his own company to sell pine nuts to other places.
Pine cones are picked in autumn.
The pine trees in the mountains on their brigade's side are all old pine trees that grow very tall. Some pine cones have fallen to the ground, but many have not.
Picking pine cones is still a bit dangerous. Not only do you have to climb a very high tree, but you also have to find a way to get the pine cones down.
People standing below are also in danger. If a pine cone falls from such a height, it will hurt even if you think about it.
Those who are good at climbing trees in the village have ropes hung around their waists, and they climb up the tree with bamboo poles. After standing firm, they tie ropes around their waists and tree trunks for safety, and then they can use the bamboo poles to knock on the pine cones with confidence.
The people below put their backpacks over their heads and listened to the banging sound of the pine cone falling down and hitting their backpacks. If it hit their heads, they would definitely open the gourd.
Song Wei also followed, but watched from a distance.
Lin Zhen didn't let her go over there. There were already two Lin Zhenkuan beside him. The bear boy, who was much taller than Lin Zhen when he stood, had a cloth bag hanging on his chest, which contained all kinds of food.
It took out a big apple from the bag with its paws, gnawed one for itself and gave another to Song Wei.
Song Wei's legs were a little sore from standing, so Xiong Zai climbed down very sensibly, and extended a leg to shake it for her to sit on.
Song Wei touched the big fat bear.
"My legs were numb and I made a squeak."
Then he sat on his lap, leaning his back against the bear's fat, furry body.
She didn't do anything when she came out for fun this time, she just came out to have fun.
At three months old, her belly was already swollen, and the whole family was cautious about her.
After all, I am a little older now.
In one morning, the pine cones in everyone’s baskets were almost full.
There were no major accidents.
The smaller ones were those picking up pine cones below, and some of the backpacks were smashed because they were not worn properly.
Fortunately, it's no big deal.
Everyone went back with baskets full of pine cones, and everyone sat on the ground and started knocking pine nuts.
They fry pine nuts every year, and some people fry them very well. They control the heat well enough to prevent the pine nuts from being burnt or undercooked.
They also know how to talk to pine nuts.
The entire Ping An brigade was in full swing for several days.
When the final product came out, the scent of pine nuts lingered over the safety brigade for a long time, and the children were so greedy.
After Lin Zhen settled Song Wei, he took Songzi away with the hope of everyone in the Ping An Brigade.
Before leaving, Song Wei went to see him off and put his hand on her slightly bulging abdomen.
"Come back early. If you don't come back until I give birth, I'll beat you up."
"Don't worry."
Lin Zhen lowered his head and kissed her on the forehead, and then left with the convoy.
This is Lin Zhen's fleet, and it is also the largest private transport fleet here. Most of the employees in the fleet are young people from their Ping An Brigade, which is also their pride.
