Chapter 587 Current Situation
It’s autumn harvest time again.
Except for the elderly and children who could not go to the fields, and those working in a few farms, everyone else in the production team was busy with the autumn harvest.
Even Zhou Mingxuan and Zhao Junhao stopped going to the town to look for customers and returned to the production team to participate in the autumn harvest.
Although they no longer sell goods, they cannot stop their business. After all, the production team's chicken, duck and goose farm can now collect more than 800 eggs every day. They definitely cannot keep them at home and must be sold.
Although Zhou Mingxuan and Zhao Junhao came back to participate in the autumn harvest and did not continue to run business, their busyness for several months was not in vain.
The production team has been exporting chicken, duck and goose eggs for several months and has accumulated a group of regular customers.
In the past, the production team’s oxcarts would deliver goods to customers’ homes, but now it is the autumn harvest season and neither the people nor the oxcarts are free, so they have to have people come to pick up the goods.
You have to know that materials were in short supply in that era. If the purchasing agents from those units knew where the goods were available, they would probably flock to them.
Zhou Mingxuan and Zhao Junhao went out to find sales channels. At the beginning, they might have to ask others for help, after all, they had to ask others to lead them to find the person who could make the decision.
But when they know their purpose, it is no longer them who are begging others, but rather, it is the other party who is begging them.
Of course, this does not include those who deliberately look for trouble.
Therefore, when they knew that the production team was busy with the autumn harvest and could not deliver the goods to the door, they agreed to send someone to pick up the goods without saying a word.
Of course, in order to avoid everyone going there together and the production team being out of goods, Zhou Mingxuan and Zhao Junhao also arranged the time for these people to go there.
Since they had made concessions, the production team would naturally not treat them unfairly and promised to give them priority in selling the chickens, ducks, geese, sheep, rabbits and pigs that were to be sold before winter if they needed them.
After these words were spoken, those people had even less complaints.
Autumn harvest is busy and hard work, but fortunately Liu Jingxue has experienced it twice and has some extra help, so it is not that hard for her.
This year's autumn harvest, Liu Jingxue was still responsible for carrying grain as usual.
Although the production team now has three ox carts and a tractor, and does not need most of the male laborers to carry grain like in previous years, Liu Jingxue still chose to carry grain.
The main thing about carrying the load was that for her, who had great strength and had reached the foundation-building stage, it was just like taking a walk there.
Although it looked like the burden was on her shoulders, if you looked closely, you would find that the pole was two centimeters away from her shoulders and was not on her shoulders at all.
She always used her spiritual energy to hold up the carrying pole and moved forward with her.
After running back and forth between the drying dam and the field several times, although it was a wasted run, Liu Jingxue still felt some discomfort in her legs, so she simply covered her legs with spiritual power and used it to move forward.
In this way, I can be lazy and exercise my control over spiritual power at the same time. Why not do it?
Liu Jingxue, who has a cheat, cannot feel the hard work of autumn harvest, but the people in the cowshed who don't have a cheat can certainly feel it.
In the past two years, with the nourishment of spiritual food, spiritual meat and ginseng wine provided by Liu Jingxue, the health of several elders has greatly improved, and some of their previous health problems have disappeared.
But they are old after all, especially Mr. Zou and Mr. Wu, who are both in their seventies. Even if they are in good health, they cannot bear continuous high-intensity labor.
Fortunately, neither the cadres nor the villagers of the Red Star Production Team had any ill will towards them.
Furthermore, since the leadership of the Revolutionary Committee was changed last year, the atmosphere in Linshan Town has been very good, and there has been no situation of organizing people to go to the countryside to educate those who have been sent down.
The production team's attitude towards the people in the cowshed became better, and the work assigned to them was relatively easy.
Before, when villagers wanted to see Wang Xiulan for medical treatment, they could only come secretly at night, avoiding people. Now, they only avoid the educated youth and dare to come to her for medical treatment during the day.
But no matter how well the production team treated them, those people in the production team who were used to doing farm work could not bear such long hours of hard labor, let alone them.
In order to prevent the few people from getting too tired, since the autumn harvest began, Liu Jingxue would use a large casserole in the space to simmer a large pot of ginseng chicken soup every two days and send it to the cowshed, as well as Zhou Mingxuan and Zhao Junhao.
The stewed soup uses chickens from the space, diluted spiritual spring water, and young ginseng.
It’s not that Liu Jingxue was reluctant to use aged ginseng, it’s mainly because the chickens produced in the space and the spiritual spring water are already very nourishing. If she uses older ones, she is worried that it will be too much nourishment and the bodies of several people will not be able to bear it.
Chicken soup is stewed every two days. Liu Jingxue has to find a suitable source for the chicken, but this is not a problem for her.
Ever since the production team's chicken, duck and goose farms started to produce, in order to improve the living standards of the villagers in the team, the team stipulated that the villagers could use their work points to buy chicken, duck and goose eggs from the farms at low prices.
Of course there is a limit. After all, the main purpose of the production team to open a farm is to sell it to others for money.
As the autumn harvest approached, the production team had new regulations, allowing team members to buy chickens, ducks and geese from the production team's farms to improve their lives.
Each household is limited to two roosters, which are only roosters that cannot lay eggs.
Liu Jingxue bought two chickens from the farm early on, and added some pheasants from the Space Mountain. Every time she mixed domestic chickens with pheasants, she made ginseng chicken soup.
Anyway, after being stewed into soup, the chicken became very tough. In addition, the soup was shared by three families, so they had no idea how much chicken was in the soup, let alone whether it was a domestic chicken or a wild chicken.
What's more, since Liu Jingxue sent her the soup, Zhou Mingxuan and Zheng Pengcheng also sent her a few chickens.
These two people are responsible for the sales of the production team's breeding farm products. They can at least get a few more within the prescribed range, which gives Liu Jingxue more room for operation.
Before the autumn harvest, Liu Jingxue, Zhou Mingxuan and Zhao Junhao sent a lot of bacon, eggs, malted milk, milk powder and various fine grains to the cowshed.
In addition, Liu Jingxue would secretly add some spiritual spring water to the water tank in the cowshed from time to time, resulting in the fact that now that the autumn harvest is more than halfway through, the people in the cowshed are in relatively good condition.
As for Zhou Mingxuan and Zhao Junhao, after more than a year of learning ancient martial arts, they are no longer the ignorant ones. This intensity of labor during the autumn harvest is nothing to them.
After work, the two of them even went to the mountains every few days to get some pheasants and rabbits for the cowshed, which Liu Jingxue also sent to them so that they could replenish their bodies.
The two of them are now helping the production team sell goods and get a certain share of the profits. In addition to the subsidies from their families, Liu Jingxue even suspects that the two of them have learned the trading model from her and Sister Jin and are secretly reselling small quantities of meat.
After all, Liu Jingxue occasionally used her spiritual sense to scan and found that when they rushed to the town early in the morning, they always brought some prey with them.
The two men, who were not short of money, did not rely on work points to make a living, so even though they had spare energy, they did not act recklessly. They still did the work and earned the work points as they did last year during the autumn harvest.
However, in order to avoid being noticed, they pretended to be exhausted in front of outsiders to cover up their tracks.
I have to say that since this year, with the help of two people, Liu Jingxue has felt a lot more relaxed.
Apart from other things, the two of them often went to the town and had many routes, so the daily necessities, cigarettes and alcohol in the cowshed were all obtained by them.
Even the firewood in the cowshed this year, as well as the firewood that had been prepared for the winter, was mostly picked up by the two of them going up the mountain.
After all, because they had to go to the town to pick up jobs, the team stipulated that they had to come back to work except during the autumn harvest, and the rest of the time was at their disposal.
Therefore, the two of them, who had plenty of time, took charge of all the tasks.
Of course, the food was still provided by Liu Jingxue. Even if the two wanted to take it all, Liu Jingxue would not agree.
Her space can produce high-quality food that contains spiritual energy, so why should she go outside to buy low-quality food at high prices?
She also wanted to take the opportunity to get more money from the two of them and save it for buying a house in the future.
She didn't dare sell it to anyone else, but she felt at ease selling it to these two people because she didn't believe that they would dare to report her.
