Chapter 16 Chicken Thieves

With the inventory in his stomach, Wang Manyin took out a bottle of wine and two wine cups from under the adobe. This is also saved by the predecessor, and it will come in handy tonight.

It's not good wine. It's loose wine bought from the supply and marketing cooperatives.

It's six cents or two, and only sixty cents per kilogram. It's made from dried sweet potatoes. The taste is a little strong, and my head hurts when I drink too much. The only advantage is that there is no ticket for such casual drinks.

When the wine was full, he touched the glass and said, "Don't worry, don't be surprised. I didn't take the wine just now, but it hurts my stomach to drink it on an empty stomach. Let's take our time and drink as much as we can."

From the memory of acceptance, we know that there is wine before dinner on the Loess Plateau. In short, it means drinking and eating first, and then eating after drinking.

In addition, it is popular to persuade people to drink. They must be drunk before they feel interesting. Otherwise, the host's hospitality is dishonest.

However, Wang Manyin kept the habit of later generations. He thought that his brother-in-law was not an outsider, so he didn't try to persuade him to drink. Just enjoy himself.

"I know, I know." Shao'an, with the generosity typical of men in the northwest, did not refuse to drink.

After touching several cups, they drank half a jin of wine.

With the help of wine, Sun Shao'an said again, "Brother Man Silver, you are going to marry my sister soon. What's your plan? You can't just go on like this, can you?"

Hearing the words, Orchid stopped chopping. She also wants to know what men think... of course, no matter what men plan to do, they will support them.

However, the two little guys did not worry. Although they had a round stomach, they still kept chopping.

"Don't worry, I've been thinking about it these days. Before, I had enough to eat and my family was not hungry, so I had a lazy life. I can't do that again after marriage. At present, I have a preliminary plan to let your sister greet my family... I join the production team." Wang Manyin said solemnly.

At the beginning of his rebirth to this era, he had made up his mind not to farm. Now we can only compromise with reality.

Still, in this era, we must have a legitimate livelihood on the surface. Otherwise, if you stay in the village all the time, you will eat and drink whatever you do all day long, and something big will happen sooner or later.

He didn't want Orchid to work hard in the team, so he had to do it by himself. It doesn't matter if your work score is low, and you don't rely on it to feed your stomach.

"I'd better work in the team." Orchid repeated what she had said before.

"Yes, Brother Man Yin, let my sister go too. How can you earn enough work by yourself?" Sun Shao'an was also touched, knowing that the other side really thought of her sister.

But these days, if only one person earns work, there will be famine in the family.

"After listening to me," Wang Manyin poured the wine to his brother-in-law again. "I'm not working alone. I'm going to buy a shelf car to pay my work."

"Frame car, are you going to buy it?"

They were stunned, and then asked some strange questions.

"Yes," Wang Manyin nodded.

Now in the countryside on the Loess Plateau, shelf cars are indispensable tools for production teams. It saves time, labor and labor to use it to do farm work.

It is no exaggeration to say that in the eyes of many farmers, shelf cars and cars of later generations can be drawn with an equal sign. Even more valuable.

However, shelf cars are not owned by ordinary farmers. The price of a car is almost 100 yuan, and few villagers are willing to buy it.

At present, there are four vehicles in Guanzi Village, all belonging to the production team.

In Wang Manyin's memory, in order to encourage members to buy shelf cars, the production team has a rule: shelf cars go out of work with men to earn the same amount of work - 10 points.

You should know that the social workers' scores are mainly based on their labor ability, labor skills, and labor attitude, with a maximum of 10 points.

But few people can reach it, usually below 9 points.

In other words, as long as you own a shelf car, it is equivalent to one more person earning the highest wages.

After deducting the wind and rain, we can earn about 3000 work points in a year.

According to last year's 5 cents per work in Guanzi Village, that's 150 yuan.

However, a shelf car costs only 100 yuan, which can be paid back in one year at most, and the next year is the net profit. This rate of return is reasonably high, almost surpassing Buffett.

To Wang Manyin's surprise, it seems that many villagers in Guanzi Village have never calculated such an account.

Of course, there are other reasons: on the one hand, there is no money, on the other hand, there is fear of being cut off.

Wang Manyin is not afraid. According to his memory, no one has bought a shelf car near the villages around Yuanxi County.

After listening to the analysis, Sun Shao'an nodded repeatedly: "Brother Man, I am relieved to hear your words."

He didn't know much about Wang Manyin because of his lack of contact before. He just listened to outsiders who said it was unreliable and wandered around in ghosts.

After this period of contact, Sun Shao'an found that his brother-in-law was not what everyone said.

In particular, he was impressed by his conversation tonight.

He is knowledgeable, has ideas in mind, and acts appropriately.

My sister will not suffer hardship if she follows him.

After nearly two hours of a meal, they chatted while eating, and a bottle of wine was just finished.

It seems that Shaoping and Lanxiang are both sleepy. Sun Shao'an doesn't talk any more and gets up to leave.

There was still a lot of vegetables left in the pot. Wang Manyin shoveled all of them into a clean earthen pot, sealed the lid, and let the orchids take back all of them.

Then he sent the four people to the village.

As he passed the wheat field, Sun Shaoping came to his senses: "Brother Man Yin, are you the sparrow you caught here? Let's go and see if there are any more?"

"Good," Wang Manyin nodded.

He also wanted to know if there were any new sparrows sleeping here after he caught them last night.

It's true that... I heard birds singing when several people got close.

But it's much less than last night.

The three men fumbled for a while and only caught seven.

Even so, the two children were very excited and chattered about getting back to roast.

Not every family is as luxurious as Wang Manyin. It is the daily practice to fry and roast sparrows.

After sending them to the village, Wang Manyin returned with rhubarb.

If my brother-in-law is here, I will not be afraid even if I meet a wolf.

As a result, he just walked down the slope of his house and heard the cackling outside the cave.

Someone stole chicken?!

Wang Manyin was immediately alarmed: Good thief, he had just left half an hour before he was watched by others?

He patted rhubarb on the head, but the guy didn't make a sound.

Then, one person and one dog climbed up the high slope quietly.

In the moonlight, Wang Manyin hid in the darkness and looked at the empty field in front of the door, but he didn't find anyone moving.

A few hens in the henhouse were still singing happily.

Before Wang Manyin could see the situation clearly, the rhubarb beside him had rushed past.

It darted to the chicken house and barked.

Immediately, Wang Manyin saw a gray black thing coming out of the chicken coop and running away with a squeak

Rhubarb responds more quickly and immediately catches up.

In a flash, he pressed the shadow under his paw and opened his mouth to bite.

Before Wang Manyin could say hello, he saw that rhubarb seemed to get an electric shock. Wang gave a scream, and his body jumped to the ground.

Then, his limbs trembled and his head shook constantly, as if he had suddenly become drunk.

What happened?

The sudden change made Wang Manyin completely confused.

Before I could figure out what was going on, I felt a strange smelly smell coming to my face. It went deep into his nostrils and almost made him vomit out his dinner.

I, Nima, stink!

Wang Manyin hurriedly covered his nose and backed away.

In the bright moonlight, he finally saw what was wrong next to the chicken house... a fat weasel.

The body length is about 40cm, and the skin after frost is unusually thick.

This guy didn't seem to be bitten to death by rhubarb, but he still struggled to climb far away.

Wang Manyin finally understood what had just released the biological and chemical weapons.
