Chapter 115 Are the accounts so confusing?



Chapter 115 Are the accounts so confusing?

After returning home and waiting for a while, Zhou Sanye's voice was heard outside. Hua Rendong opened the door and invited him in.

When Mr. Zhou San saw the full fields of rice seedlings in the house and yard, he was very excited. "Great! Great! This time we don't have to worry about delaying the rice planting. Erhua, you are so capable. You can solve the difficult problem that our entire team couldn't solve easily."

Honeysuckle smiled modestly and said nothing: She also felt that she was very capable!

Uncle Zhou San picked up a few bundles of seedlings and was surprised again. "Erhua, these seedlings are so strong. They are much better than the seedlings grown in our village. They must be high-yield seedlings, right?"

"Of course! Can I get bad seedlings for our team? These are new varieties cultivated by the Academy of Agricultural Sciences. They have been planted for two years, and the yield per mu can be increased by 30% compared to before."

"30%, that's great." Uncle Zhou San was so happy that he couldn't help but smile. "With this 30% increase, our village will definitely be rated as advanced this year."

These days, only the brigade that pays more public grain and creates higher profits is eligible to be evaluated as advanced. Otherwise, the previous brigade leader would not have planted peaches on the mountain without considering his own situation.

Speaking of which, Taohuawan Brigade has many mountains and little land, which is not suitable for large-scale farming. Also, because the previous brigade leader was incompetent and the later brigade leader had no connections, although it was not the worst brigade in recent years, it was not a wealthy brigade either.

Zhou Lai Fu has just taken over as the team leader and it is time for him to make some achievements. If Hua Honeysuckle can help the village sell peaches, it will help him and even the entire Taohuawan Brigade.

If he could increase his income from strawberries and boost rice production, he would surely receive a lot of dividends at the end of the year. As a member of the team, he would be able to walk out with his back held high.

"Erhua, you're great. When we get back, Third Grandpa will tell the villagers that you're the one who planted these rice and strawberry seedlings. Let everyone come and thank you."

"That's not necessary... Hehe, Third Grandpa, I'm doing these for the team, and I consider myself a member of our team. I'm working for our own team, so there's no need to thank me."

It is of course good to be able to make people in the team remember your kindness, but you can't say that directly. You still have to be polite.

Zhou Sanye patted her on the shoulder and said, "Good girl, Uncle San was right about you."

After saying that, the happy Zhou Sanye hurriedly moved the seedlings to the car. Hua Jindong wanted to help, but the old man pushed her aside and said, "No need for you, you are a great contributor. Go and take a rest. Your uncle can carry it."

By the end of the move, the ox cart was already full, with one-third of the seedlings still left. Uncle Zhou San was anxious, "If we don't send them back to the team and soak them in water, they will wilt tomorrow. Uncle San will send one cart back first, and then rush back to take the rest overnight."

Hua Honeysuckle couldn't let the old man travel so late at night. Besides, he had already made two trips, and he probably wouldn't be able to handle another one.

Thinking of the several donkeys that Xu Xixi had welded for her in the space, Hua Rendong said, "Third Uncle, I have another car downstairs. Load the rest into my car and let's go back together."

Zhou Sanye was about to say that her bicycle couldn't hold so many things, but then he saw Hua Rendong dragging and pulling out a donkey-shaped bicycle from the downstairs room.

Mr. Zhou San was happy. "Oh, I saw your car last time, but I heard that it was damaged by those newly arrived educated youths. I was so sad. So you welded another one?"

Hua Honeysuckle said, "Yes, the previous one was damaged by them, so I had to sell it to them at a low price. I felt bad about it, and I had to find someone to buy this one for a long time."

As he spoke, Uncle Zhou San moved the remaining seedlings onto the donkey, and Hua Jindong put some of the things he wanted to take to the team in the empty space. Then the grandfather and grandson set off, one driving the ox cart and the other riding the donkey.

The donkey was riding fast, but Honeysuckle did not ride fast. He followed behind the ox cart at the same speed.

The father and son walked on the street one after the other, attracting a lot of people's attention.

It was already late when we set out, and it was past seven when we arrived at Taohuawan Brigade. Zhou Laifu was waiting on the dirt road in front of the brigade, watching the car approaching from a distance and shouted, "Is that Uncle San?"

Mr. Zhou San also shouted: "Yes, and Er Yatou."

Zhou Lai Fu came running over, followed by several young people from the village.

When he saw the two full carts of rice seedlings, Zhou Laifu finally breathed a sigh of relief. "Finally got it. As soon as the third uncle left in the afternoon, Xia Zhiqing caught the bastard who was cutting the rice seedlings. People from the commune came and interrogated him. They said that the boy was from the Liugou Brigade up there. He had a crush on Chen Daniu's daughter Xiaofeng and wanted to do something to her. Xiaofeng didn't want to, so she reported him to the police. He was detained for a few days, and when he got out, he took revenge on our brigade. Because of this, Yang Jinliu ran to the Liugou Brigade, blocked his family at home, and almost set it on fire."

Hua Rendeng knew that Chen Daniu and Yang Jinliu were a couple. One was strong and healthy, and the other was aggressive and domineering. No one in the surrounding area dared to mess with them.

But according to what Zhou Laifu said before, the cloth that the old lady who came down with him to mend the basket used was torn off from Yang Jinliu. So, in terms of strength, the old lady was better.

The seedlings are sent to the field and moved to the pond beside the paddy field. They are covered with plastic sheets to prevent them from freezing. They can be planted directly after May Day.

Although the people who destroyed the seedlings were caught, they did not dare to be careless. Zhou Lai Fu designated several people to take turns to guard the seedlings every night. Then he rode on Hua Jindong's donkey and sent Hua Jindong back to the educated youth site.

"Erhua, how much did you spend? Go and report it to your Uncle Liu tomorrow and I'll ask him to reimburse you later."

Hua Honeysuckle was a little confused when she heard this, "Ah? I forgot to ask them to write a receipt when I bought it."

Zhou Laifu said indifferently: "It's okay, just talk to your uncle Liu, the things are all here, everyone has eyes to see, we can't let you lose money."

Although Zhou Laifu said this so that she could make a small profit, but the brigade's accounts were so confusing? Just tell her how much to buy? Then she would sell the brigade's things to the Women's Federation, or even sell them to other places. With more accounts, wouldn't it be even more confusing?

Although a little chaos is conducive to her speculation, but once there is a lot of money, it is hard to say how much has been embezzled by whom. If someone with ulterior motives takes advantage of this one day and reports Zhou Lai Fu for corruption, he will not be able to explain himself.

"Uncle, we should make sure that the accounts of the brigade are clear. Look, I can guarantee that our brigade's peaches can be sold this year, and we will definitely make a lot of money from strawberries. If we can't make sense of these accounts, it will be troublesome in the future."
