Chapter 46: Got the calf and the donkey, plus one to end the village trip


Chapter 46: The calf and the donkey are obtained, Jiayi ends the village trip

What else can Li Jiayi say.

Everyone ate too much at this meal. They had never eaten like this during the Chinese New Year because there was too much meat.

After eating, the family sat in the yard to enjoy the cool air.

Although it is still very hot during the day at this time, autumn is about to enter and it will be much cooler at night.

"Dong dong dong!"

There was a knock on the door.

Hearing the knock on the door, the uncle quickly stood up and said, "Maybe he's looking for me. I'll go take a look."

It was already discussed in the afternoon, and he would be with several other people in the evening Go pull food.

"Captain?"

Li Aiguo opened the door, but he didn't expect it to be the captain.

“Oh! Patriotic!”

The captain did not expect that it was Li Aiguo who opened the door.

"Captain, what are you..." When he saw it was the captain, he knew he was not here to find him.

Because the discussion has been completed in the afternoon and the captain has made arrangements, there is no need to come to him in person.

"I'm looking for Jia Yi, but I didn't expect you to be here too."

"It turns out I'm looking for Jia Yi! Come in quickly."

Soon the captain followed his uncle Li Aiguo into the courtyard.

"Uncle Lao Gen." The captain shouted first.

“Well! Here?”

The name Lao Gen actually means the youngest person in this generation, at least in Lijia Village.

Also, in terms of age, the captain is several years older than Li Laogen, which explains the problem.

"Okay."

"Have you eaten?"

"Have eaten." As he spoke, the captain also sat down.

"What brings you to Jiayi?" Li Laogen asked.

He didn’t want Li Jiayi to get involved in the village affairs.

"It's not a big deal, just tell him a little something."

Seeing that the captain didn't want to talk, Li Laogen didn't ask again, and was going to ask Li Jiayi later.

"Grandpa, since the captain has something to do with me, I will go and have a look."

Li Jiayi knew that it must be about the calf and the donkey, otherwise the captain would not have come to find him.

"Well! Go!"

"Uncle Gen, I will leave first." The captain stood up and said.

“Yes!”

Arrived outside the yard, Li Jiayi asked excitedly: “Captain, is there any news about the calf and the little donkey?”

"Yes, there are four calves and three donkeys in total."

"Ah! So many?" Li Jiayi asked in surprise.

He thought there would be two or three calves and even fewer donkeys, but he didn’t expect there to be so many.

"Yes, but there are two calves that are very small. One is less than a month old, and the other is only about half a month old. Do you think I can have it? If not, you can wait."

"No, Captain, I want it no matter how big it is."

Don't say it's already half a month, even if it's just a newborn, don't forget that he has a spiritual spring.

"In addition, one of the little donkeys is very small."

"Captain, there is no problem, just tell me how much money it will cost in total."

No way ah! He doesn't have much money now. He originally had 1,780 yuan, and including the compensation from the three original uncles, it was less than 2,000 yuan.

After coming here, I spent 100 on marlezi and gave another 1,000 to grandpa. Now he only has more than 800 in his hand.

And there are only so many. To be honest, he really doesn't worry enough. After all, these are calves and donkeys!

"A total of seven hundred yuan." "Seven hundred yuan?" Li Jiayi breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Isn't this a bit low?"



"It's not low. Even if you sell it in the commune, you can't get it at this price."

"But captain, this is equivalent to a hundred yuan a head, but there are big ones and small ones. It’s easy to say, isn’t the big one at a disadvantage?”

"Don't worry! The price of the big one is higher, and the price of the small one is lower. How can you suffer a loss?"

"Okay! Where are the calf and the little donkey now?"

" They are all tied up at my house. You can take them away at any time."

"What are you waiting for? Go now." After that, Li Jiayi walked forward.

The captain shook his head and followed.

The two men soon arrived at the captain's house. Sure enough, there were four calves and three donkeys tied up in the yard of the captain's house.

After Li Jiayi saw these calves and donkeys, he immediately took a handful of money from his schoolbag.

He knew it might be something about the calf and the donkey, so when he went out, he put his schoolbag on his shoulders.

"Captain, here is seven hundred yuan, please order it."

"No, I don't believe others, how can I not believe you!"

Li Jiayi shook his head and said: "This won't work. One code is the same. It's better for you to order a little bit."

"Okay!"

Looking at Li Jiayi's small When the calves and donkeys came out, the captain counted the money.

After all, the money is not his, he is just a middleman, and there is no reward for it.

That’s why Li Jiayi asked him to make it clear that if there was a shortfall of ten or twenty yuan, the captain would not have to pay for it himself.

"Plus one, the money is right."

"Captain, can I take these calves and donkeys away?"

"Of course, they are already It's yours, you can take it away at any time."

"Yes!" Li Jia nodded and went over to untie the rope.

It is not easy to lead seven calves and donkeys at once, especially the calves.

Otherwise, it wouldn't be called a calf. This thing has never been put on a rein and is extremely uncooperative.

But in the end he was taken away.

After coming out of the brigade leader's house, Li Jiayi did not go directly to his grandfather's house, but to the west end of the village.

With so many calves and donkeys, he couldn't take them to his grandfather's house. He had to find a place where no one was around to put them into space.

More than half an hour later, Li Jiayi returned home. With the calf and the little donkey, Li Jiayi's affairs here were completely over.

So he plans to go back tomorrow, and if he goes back this time, he probably won't come back again without a holiday.

Because there is nothing going on here, if all the money he gave is used to buy food, not to mention three years, even four or five years will be enough to feed the grandparents and uncle's family.

"The eldest grandson is back? What does the captain want from you?" As soon as he got home, grandpa came over and asked.

Of course Li Jiayi knew that his grandfather cared about him.

So he quickly said: "Grandpa, there is nothing wrong. The captain just asked me what else needs to be prepared in the village."

"Oh, really?"

"Yes, grandpa."

"Okay then!"

Li Laogen knew that Li Jiayi did not tell the truth, but he also No further questions were asked.

When he thought about it, the most he could do was to ask Li Jiayi to borrow some money from the captain.

It's normal to think so. No family in the village is rich, so it would definitely take a lot of money to buy so much food.

That’s why he didn’t continue to ask, because Li Jiayi was helping the villagers.

Besides, the village will definitely return the money to the eldest grandson in the future, so what else is there to ask?

He never thought that his eldest grandson bought a calf and a donkey from the village.
