Chapter 140: Openly say: This money is earned by us

Li Long came out of the supply and marketing cooperative, took the industrial tickets to the department store building, bought a semiconductor radio, and then bought four No. 1 batteries and installed them. He tuned the station at that time, and then heard the voice of the Central People's Broadcasting Station.

Then he twisted a few more times, received the voice of the local radio station, and then he twisted again, actually hearing the radio station in the ethnic language!

Li Long was a bit stunned, and then suddenly thought of Halimu and the others in the mountains.

If...

It's a pity that he didn't have enough money now.

Li Long looked at the remaining radios in the counter with some regret, feeling it was necessary to take money back to buy them as soon as possible.

Otherwise, what if they are gone?

Halimu and Yushanjiang and the others went to the summer pasture in the depths of the Tianshan Mountains. If they had a radio, could they be less bored, and could they understand some major events in the region, which would also be helpful to them?

Carrying the radio and leaving the department store building, Li Long rode the bicycle to the big courtyard, checked it, and after confirming that no one came, locked the door and rode to the morning market.

It was not early now, and there were not many stalls left in the morning market. He turned around and didn't find anyone selling piglets, so he went back.

Arriving in the village, Li Long first unloaded the piglets. Liang Wenyu was cooking lunch here, and Li Jianguo and the others had finished working and were eating.

Seeing Li Long brought back piglets, Li Jianguo said happily:

"Not bad, there are two now, our pigsty has been cleared out, put them in first, and then transform the horse shed after there are more—the horse shed also needs to be cleaned up and transformed."

"Yes." Li Long nodded in agreement. The horse shed was originally for horses, donkeys, and mules. Each shed was relatively tall, but the space was small. It was necessary to open it up and transform it again.

However, such a job was not big, and there was a big courtyard inside, which was originally for large livestock to walk around. Now it could be completely transformed and sprinkled with manure to plant vegetables.

Putting the piglets into the pigsty, Li Jianguo greeted Li Long to eat. Li Long waved his hand and said:

"Not eating, I ate in the county, now I'm going to find the village director to talk about something. The county supply and marketing cooperative has a big job, weaving three hundred carrying poles, to be completed within a month. I know the procurement section chief, and he gave the job to me. I'll ask the village director if our village wants to take this job."

"There is this job? Then the village director will definitely take it!" Li Jianguo slapped his thigh, "Junwazi complained this morning that the Southern Mountains are going to establish a forestry team, and it won't be allowed to dig fritillaria and engage in side businesses in the mountains later. This way the brigade will have less income. If there is really this order, he will be very happy!"

"Then does our family want to go?" Liang Wenyu looked at Li Jianguo.

"Big brother won't go, I will follow into the mountains, but I won't weave." Li Long said, "I have the final say on the price... I want to take a cut."

"Should be." Li Jianguo pondered for a while and said, "Without you, the brigade wouldn't have such a job. Junwazi would be too happy to be happy. Won't take too much, right?"

"No, no, not more than twenty percent."

"Then no problem."

"Then okay, I'll go talk to him," Li Long stood up and said, "By the way, big brother, I bought a radio, our family can listen to it when we have nothing to do." He took out the radio and put it on the table, opened it, tuned it, and the voice of the announcer broadcasting the news in standard Mandarin came from inside.

"It also broadcasts novels inside." Li Long said proudly.

"I heard it in the fishery," Li Jianguo held the radio in his hand and said somewhat lovingly: "At that time, listening to news, listening to storytelling, there were many things!"

"Can listen now too."

"Not cheap, right!" Liang Wenyu looked at the radio, full of curiosity in her eyes, "Does it still need a ticket?"

"Fifty yuan." Li Long said, "The money from selling fish today, I added some more. I plan to sell fish for two more days, and then buy one for a friend in the mountains."

"Should be." Li Jianguo nodded approvingly, "It's just too far, otherwise, no matter what, we should invite people to be guests in our house."

Li Long rode the bike to Xu Chengjun's house. Xu Chengjun had just finished eating, the door was open, and hearing the bicycle sound, he walked out. "Little Long is here." Xu Chengjun said while rolling Mohe tobacco, "Are you back from selling fish in the county?"

"Mm, director, I have something to tell you."

"What is it, you say." Xu Chengjun continued to roll the tobacco.

"There is a big job on the supply and marketing cooperative side, weaving three hundred carrying poles. I want to ask now if the brigade wants to take it, this job needs to be done inside the Southern Mountains..."

"Really?" Xu Chengjun heard this news, the cigarette in his hand fell to the ground. He couldn't care about picking it up, grabbed Li Long's arm and said:

"Little Long, is this true? Take it! Definitely take it! But are you sure this is true?"

"If we want to take it, then I will make the standards clear." Li Long stepped back to get rid of Xu Chengjun's iron-like hand and said: "Otherwise, if it's not done well and people don't accept it, that's trouble."

"You say, you say."

"Construction period one month, the standard is two-meter poles, one-meter long and wide handles, weaving must be dense, five yuan for one carrying pole."

Li Long set the price at five yuan, and the remaining one yuan belonged to him.

"This price is not bad, we will definitely have no problem completing the task!" Xu Chengjun said with a smile, "Weaving carrying poles, anyone can do it! Our brigade can easily pull out ten people, one person can weave one to two a day—cut strips and chop poles in the morning, dig pits and burn strips and weave in the afternoon. At least ten or so can be woven a day, and it will basically be finished in twenty-some days."

!.

"Then okay, if the brigade can take it, I will call the supply and marketing cooperative side now. These two days, director, you have to decide on people to prepare, and then go into the mountains. I am the middleman, I won't weave, mainly inspection."

"That's no problem." Xu Chengjun was still excited now, five yuan for one, one yuan for the person weaving the carrying pole, the brigade can collect the remaining four yuan, and can do quite a few things!

He wouldn't put the money in his own pocket, but the brigade had money, and everything was convenient!

"Director, can you put Daqiang in these ten people?"

"That's no problem, Daqiang can work, can endure hardship and is obedient, definitely can." Xu Chengjun nodded.

Li Long entered the room to call the supply and marketing cooperative. At this time, calling required shaking, shaking to the switchboard and then transferring, needing to transfer several times.

Waiting for the phone to reach Li Xiangqian, the sound was already a bit distorted, fortunately there were not many lines, and it could still be heard clearly.

Hearing Li Long say he took this job, Li Xiangqian let him give the phone to Xu Chengjun, and he told Xu Chengjun to let Li Long be responsible for inspection and be the contact person.

Xu Chengjun understood the meaning of the supply and marketing cooperative side, guaranteeing that the carrying poles woven here would definitely pass the quality, and the people sent out would definitely listen to Li Long.

After finishing the call, Li Long wanted to go home. Xu Chengjun called him:

"Little Long, you helped the brigade a big favor this time. Don't worry, just this one thing, the brigade's public work for the whole year, your full work! I will notify you when people are gathered, you take people into the mountains."

"Director, I am not responsible for managing people, you specify people, I will just do the final inspection. I have other tasks when entering the mountains."

"Okay, okay, no problem!"

Li Long pushed the bike out of the courtyard, swung his leg and rode home. Xu Chengjun came to the door, watched Li Long's back, and sighed:

"This little second of the Li family, it's incredible!"
