Chapter 42
In the next few days, He Yongjun was busy with the planting of lotus roots.
Some water was put into the pond to maintain the survival of the remaining catfish, and the rest of the water would be drawn in when the lotus roots were planted. While his old father was busy, He Qiang became a hands-off boss.
He only cared about the catfish in the pond, and even threw a lot of insects and small fish and shrimps into the pond to prevent them from starving to death.
He Qiang had accumulated a lot of energy recently, which was enough to release an"irrigation".
Two mu and seven mu of land could be completely covered by irrigation, and even some area could be left.
However, the total amount of"irrigation" energy was limited, so He Qiang planned to release all the accumulated energy in the fish pond at once.
After He Yongjun planted the lotus roots in the pond and put water in, He Qiang went to the fish pond that night on the pretext of catching frogs to release"irrigation" on them.
Feeling the joy from the algae, water plants and lotus roots in the pond, He Qiang finished his work with satisfaction.
Normally, when planting crops in water, the purpose of removing algae and water plants is definitely to get rid of them.
Because they will definitely compete for the nutrients of lotus roots if they stay in the water.
But He Qiang's"irrigation" itself is equivalent to fertilization, so He Qiang is not worried about the water plants and algae competing with lotus roots for nutrients.
Besides, there will be many creatures in the pond that will eat those algae and water plants.
If there are too many, He Qiang can just use his supernatural power to clean them up.
Farmers hate these water plants because it is troublesome to clean them up, but this is not difficult for He Qiang. With
He Qiang, the ecology of the fish pond can only evolve in the direction he envisions.
The next morning, He Yongjun came to the fish pond to check the situation and was immediately shocked.
Looking at the lotus roots growing pleasingly in the pond, He Yongjun almost doubted whether he had an illusion.
He just wanted to see if these lotus roots survived, but he didn't expect to get a big surprise.
With the current momentum of these lotus roots in the pond, they grow faster than the usual three days.
When they mature, won't they have a big harvest?
Thinking of this, He Yongjun was very happy and felt full of energy to work all day.
In the afternoon, He Qiang, who went out in the name of purchasing fish fry, returned home.
In fact, he didn't buy any fish fry at all, but in order not to spend this money in vain, He Qiang took on this task.
In the evening, after He Yongjun came back, he said to He Qiang happily:"The lotus roots in the pond are growing so well, I'm afraid there will be a bumper harvest this year."
He Qiang nodded and said calmly:"I saw it when I went to put the fish fry, and it looked strong." He
Yongjun said with a beaming face:"The lotus roots grow really fast, I didn't expect it. I was worried about whether these lotus roots could survive yesterday. Now I feel confident."
He Tiantian blinked her big eyes, clapped her hands happily and said:"There are lotus roots to eat!"
He Qiang said arrogantly:"Lotus roots are nothing, we can use lotus roots to stew pig's feet soup and eat pork directly."
He Tiantian cheered"Eat pig gaga!"
He Yongjun glared at his son and said unhappily,"You're so crazy after just two days of good life. No matter how much money you make, you have to put it into practice!" He Qiang retorted confidently,"Isn't the purpose of making money to live? Otherwise, why make money!"
He Yongjun said angrily,"You have so many crooked ideas. You don't even know how to save some money! You think about making money when you have a little money!"
He Qiang was dissatisfied and said,"Am I making money? I'm making more money!"
Grandma He listened to the argument between her children and grandchildren with a smile. She was very pleased. This time, she did not choose to take sides, but ate the food silently.
Those lotus roots were arranged by He Yongjun, and he asked his two brothers to plant them together.
After all, no matter what He Yongjun said, he was also concerned about the fish pond.
Now that his grandson's life is thriving, the rest of the family can also enjoy the benefits. This is a good sign!
The family helps each other, and their lives are getting better and better. Grandma He is very happy.
……
The next morning, He Qiang got up and had breakfast. He went to the fish pond to check the situation. He did not go home and continued to stroll in the village.
Recently, he tasted the sweetness of"irrigation", so he did not go into the mountains so frequently.
Anyway, there is enough fish and meat at home recently, and there is no shortage of meat. At night, he can catch some frogs, or go to other people's fields to get some loaches, eels, and even shrimps and crabs.
He Qiang has a certain plan for collecting the energy of strange stones recently.
The fish pond does not need irrigation in the near future. The nectar over the linden forest is brewing. Recently, except for occasionally going into the mountains to pick some fruits, he usually looks after the fish pond at home.
It is said to look after the fish pond, but in fact it is just a glance every day, and then return to the leisurely life before.
But the difference is that in the past, everyone shouted and beat him for being idle, but now even if he wanders around the village with his hands in his pockets, others will greet him with a smile when they see him.
So a star in the later generations said it very well, when you succeed, you will find that there are good people around you.
He Qiang recently discovered that everyone in the village has become his neighbor.
The elders are charitable, the peers are enthusiastic, and the younger generations are close.
If He Qiang hadn't heard some rumors occasionally, He Qiang would have thought that everyone was looking forward to his family's prosperity.
At noon, the F4 of Gunziwan hung out together again.
He Qiang brought the salted fish from his home, and several people gathered together to eat the salted fish and drink.
"The He Ermao family is really a bit of a beast, they are relatives to your family, but they actually hope that you will lose money behind your back, I think I should find time to teach his son a lesson."
Sun Jifa cursed at He Qiang.
Tian Jun said sinisterly:"It's no use to teach his son a lesson, I think I should let my dad go to his house to urge him! This guy hasn't paid back the money he borrowed from the management team before, I think his family is just too full, so they have time to gossip."
He Qiang waved his hand to refuse:"Okay, it's too common to gossip behind people's backs these days! They are afraid that their relatives are suffering, and they are also afraid that their relatives drive Land Rover. People's hearts are like this, how can they be controlled." He subconsciously said the joke he saw on the Internet in later generations, and He Qiang didn't react.
"What is a Land Rover? There are people riding tigers here? Is it so awesome?"
Liu Quan asked in shock.
He had seen people riding horses, donkeys, and cows, but he had never seen anyone riding a tiger.
He knew tigers were very powerful and could bite cows to death!
He had seen tiger skins, which were really big!
"Well, Land Rover is a kind of jeep, which is more expensive than the jeeps in the army, and is usually driven by high-ranking officials!"
He Qiang explained.
Jeeps and Land Rover are both off-road vehicles. He just doesn't understand why those city people are so particular. There are off-road vehicles that are specifically driven in the city. In his opinion, aren't all off-road vehicles the same thing?
Sun Jifa said with a longing look on his face:"Damn, if you can get to the level of driving a jeep in the future, how rich will you be? I heard from Grandpa Song that a jeep costs tens of thousands! The money you earn in your lifetime is not enough to buy it!"
With the current income, Sun Jifa's opinion is indeed correct.
But starting next year, you can be a self-employed person!
Making money will be different from the past.
"As a person, you must have dreams, just in case they come true! For example, let's set a small goal and make 10,000 yuan first!"
The three people at the table, except Liu Quanyou who had no idea at all, Sun Jifa and Tian Jun were stunned.
"Ten thousand yuan? Are you sure you don't have a fever?"
Tian Jun couldn't help asking.
Ten thousand yuan households only appeared in the 1980s, not to mention now in the late 1970s.
Sun Jifa thought He Qiang was daydreaming:"You make 500 yuan a year from this fish pond, you have to save for 20 years to make it! Counting eating and drinking, you can save 300 yuan a year, then you have saved for more than 30 years, you call this a small goal?"
He Qiang rolled his eyes:"You really don't like to use your brain, your junior high school education is a waste, you are not as good as me, a primary school student! The fish pond makes money, why should I save it? Can't I continue to do contracting? I make 300 yuan a trip to the fish pond, wouldn't I make 3,000 yuan from ten fish ponds?"
Sun Jifa cursed:"You are so smart, damn, when you lose money, you won't be able to pay it back even if you sell your ass." He
Qiang sprayed back:"You fart, I am a blessed person, I will definitely make money!"
Tian Jun couldn't help but say:"Now the policy is getting better and better, do you think we can go to the city to find a job in the future?""
"Of course you can! I am definitely not the only one in the country who is brave enough. What we grow must be sold, and the city can't stop us, right? When the business gets bigger, there will surely be other things that need people to do!"
He Qiang knew that his childhood friend wanted to live in the city since he was young, so he encouraged him.
This is also the reason why Tian Jun was not interested in Sun Jifa's convenience store.
His ambition is to go to the city!
Tian Jun showed a trace of yearning in his eyes:"If that's the case, I will definitely work hard in the city in the future, and then find a cultured wife."
Sun Jifa pouted and said,"How dare you���You are just thinking about being separated from the masses. You are betraying the organization, do you know that? This is called cutting yourself off from the people!"
Liu Quanyou was also unhappy and said,"If you go to the city, how can you play with us?"
Tian Jun moved his mouth, wanting to say something but stopping himself. Finally, he raised his glass and drank it all, choosing to remain silent.
He Qiang knew that his younger brother had high standards.
Tian Jun and Sun Jifa were both 18 years old. Sun Jifa had never married because her aunt in the city wanted to find a good family.
Director Song had a high status, and the working-class family in the city might not be unwilling to marry Sun Jifa, a farmer, because of this relationship.
But Tian Jun was different.
The accountant of the production team was not recognized by anyone outside the village.
But Tian Jun had been influenced since he was a child, and he also wanted to find a beautiful wife who was well-educated, gentle, virtuous, and virtuous.
In Tian Jun's eyes, no matter how beautiful the girls in the village were, they were just stupid country girls.
What's more, Tian Jun wanted to live in the city even more. After all, he often went to the city since he was a child, and he was full of yearning for the prosperity of the city.
He Qiang patted Tian Jun on the shoulder and said to his little brother,"Don't be discouraged, there are always more solutions than difficulties. As long as you have money, the problem will be solved naturally!"
Sun Jifa teased,"He makes no money at all. He is not even interested in opening a small shop to make money. He just daydreams every day."
He Qiang didn't think so.
Because he knew very well that after the opening up, it was Tian Jun who seemed to be ambitious and unrealistic who joined the trend of the times the fastest.
In the future, among the F4 of Gunziwan, only Tian Jun successfully bought a house in the provincial capital and ran several shops, living a colorful life.
On the contrary, Sun Jifa, due to the influence of his aunt, has been keen on opening supermarkets in his future and has no ambition at all.
Although his life is not bad, his assets can only be said to be well-off.
The only person who depends on him is Liu Quan.
"Xiaojun, I'm optimistic about you!"
He Qiang praised:"Nothing is difficult for one who sets his mind to it! I think you should learn from me, set a small goal, and take it step by step, so that you will have the motivation to strive for it."
Tian Jun's mouth twitched, thinking about He Qiang's small goal, he felt that the future was bleak.
