Chapter 17 Returning to the Village Again
Wang Jianfeng suffered from insomnia when thinking about finding a wife, but he is not in a hurry now. He will not turn 12 until December this year and is not yet of legal age to get a marriage certificate. There is no point in being anxious, so he might as well wait another two months and accumulate more wealth.

Time flies, and three months passed unknowingly. In November, Wang Jianfeng's wallet, which was almost empty, gradually began to recover. During this period, the courtyard was relatively calm. Wang Jianfeng exceeded the target every month, but not too much. In August, he purchased 390 kilograms, in September, he purchased 410 kilograms, and in October, he purchased 370 kilograms. The main products were fish, and there were also some other meats.

Some minor incidents also happened during these three months. For example, Yi Zhonghai was not fired after finishing his studies and was still the boss of the courtyard house. Jia Zhang also "honestly" cleaned the house for a month, but in fact she was just a supervisor, and most of the cleaning was done by Qin Huairu.

The imagined relationship with Qin Huairu did not progress at all, mainly because Wang Jianfeng either left early and came back late, or kept the door closed, and the people in the yard were used to it. Finally, Wang Jianfeng asked someone to help buy two jujube trees, a pear tree, and an osmanthus tree, and also bought some seeds for fruits and vegetables, so that they could be planted when the season came.

However, after fishing in Miyun Reservoir for three consecutive months and catching several thousand kilograms of fish, it was no longer so easy to fish in the original place where he had made the nest. In addition, the weather began to turn cold and many fish no longer came out to move. Wang Jianfeng was a little helpless and could only make an appointment with Zhang Hai to communicate.

After get off work in the afternoon, Wang Jianfeng found Zhang Hai and told him the general situation, that is, he didn't have many fish now, and the amount this month might be reduced, and the specific time would be based on actual conditions. In addition, the time could not be fixed, and he would notify Zhang Hai in advance if there were fish.

Thanks to Wang Jianfeng's help, Zhang Hai has achieved the target for three consecutive months in the past three months. He has also stockpiled a certain amount of supplies and is planning to see if he can be promoted from a level nine clerk to a level eight clerk this year.

Suddenly I heard that I had to reduce the amount of fish. Although I felt helpless, I also felt it was natural. As the temperature drops, it will of course be difficult to catch fish.

Fortunately, during these three months, Wang Jianfeng only took more than 30 kilograms each time, and the remaining or kilograms were not handed in all. He used the remaining to buy a lot of meat and stored it. In addition, he also purchased some supplies in the countryside from time to time. So this year's promotion is not a problem.

After more than three months of getting along with each other, Zhang Hai and Wang Jianfeng have developed some friendship. Wang Jianfeng also roughly understood some of Zhang Hai's situation. Zhang Hai's father is the workshop director of a textile factory, and his mother is the deputy director of another street office. His family conditions are very good.

After talking about the general situation, Zhang Hai said to Wang Jianfeng, "Jianfeng, thank you for the past three months. If you encounter any good things in the future, please think of me."

"The weather has turned cold recently, so not many people are fishing. It will be better next spring."

"But I have a batch of rabbit meat recently. I wonder if you are interested in it," Wang Jianfeng asked.
Wang Jianfeng remembered that Wang You had someone come to tell him last week that the first batch of rabbits had been sold, with about 50 rabbits weighing more than 400 kilograms. Almost 200 to 300 kilograms could be produced every week. As for chickens, they grow relatively slowly and eggs will take at least until after the New Year. As for roosters, a batch can be produced before the New Year.

"Of course I'm interested. Where did you get the idea this time?" Zhang Hai replied quickly.
"I'm sorry, I was too excited. I asked too many questions." Then he thought of something and said immediately.
You cannot ask too many questions about the respective channels for purchasing materials outside the procurement plan. This is the rule.

"It's fine"

"How about this, you go back to the intersection outside the South Gate the day after tomorrow and wait for me. The time will be around five in the afternoon," Wang Jianfeng said after thinking for a while.

"sure no problem".

Wang Jianfeng actually thought about it for a long time. Although he could have taken all the work by himself, the tree that stands out in the forest will be destroyed by the wind. So he decided to give part of it to Zhang Hai. The main reason was that after two or three months of getting along with him, he felt that this person was not bad and had many connections. He could make friends with him. After all, more friends mean more paths.

The next day, Wang Jianfeng went to the steel rolling mill to report his work to Deputy Section Chief Zhang Shengli. Since Wang Jianfeng has been able to meet the targets every month since he joined the company and is usually quite humble and low-key, he is quite optimistic about Wang Jianfeng, a young man who graduated from a technical secondary school.

Wang Shengli was an old employee of the steel rolling mill. Before the public-private partnership, he worked in the logistics department of the steel rolling mill. However, after the partnership, he was suppressed to a certain extent. He also wanted to give it a try, so he was transferred from the deputy section chief of the logistics department to the deputy section chief of the procurement department.

Because the Logistics Department, Propaganda Department and other departments are relatively idle departments, and the Procurement Department is not only lucrative but also a relatively important department, so it is easier to get promoted.

After giving Wang Jianfeng a few words, Zhang Shengli left with a smile. In fact, Wang Jianfeng did not report anything, but just maintained relations with the leaders on a daily basis. After all, it is better to be a current official than a current manager. Then Wang Jianfeng set off on his 28-bar bicycle. This time, Wang Jianfeng went directly to Wangjia Village. In the past few months, Wangjia Village has improved slightly because Wang Jianfeng purchased a large number of fruits and vegetables. When Wang Jianfeng returned to Wangjia Village again, his old house had been renovated by the villagers and it was much better.

Now every household raises a lot of chickens and rabbits. Although there is no harvest yet, everyone has hope and expectations.

"Huzi, you're back. How long will you stay this time?"

"When do you have time to come over to my house for a quick meal?"

In the afternoon, Wang Jianfeng visited each family one by one to see their specific situation. Some had more, some had less, but generally the difference was not big. In the evening, everyone gathered at Wang Jianfeng's house again.

"I visited every household today and found that many of their rabbits are ready to be sold."

"Everyone tie up the rabbits tomorrow morning and come over early so we can weigh them and calculate the money."

"I need a few more people to help me get to the transfer point on the highway."

"sure no problem"

"It's all right, we're family, no need to be so formal."

"I came here for another reason. Uncle, can you organize us to repair and smooth the road out of the village? This will make it much more convenient for us to travel, and it will be safer when we go out after we get home."

"A great man once said that if you want to get rich, you must first build roads. Only if we build the roads, it will be more convenient for people to deliver goods to me in the future and save time."

"Hu Zi, you know how much money it would cost to repair such a long road."

"Uncle, my idea is that we don't want to build it into a highway all at once. We can do it step by step. This time we will level the road first, widen the narrow ones, fill the potholes, and level the steep slopes. At least wheelbarrows should be able to pass normally, and bicycles can also be ridden."

"This can be done in about two months, and you don't have to spend any money, just the effort."

"Huzi, this will benefit future generations, let's do it," Wang Youtian said.
"If we hurry up, it should be fixed before the end of the year. Remember, no one is allowed to be lazy."

Then we discussed some details, such as widening narrow areas and planting trees, filling potholes with gravel roads and repairing them slowly and as well as possible, etc.

After the discussion was almost over, everyone dispersed and Wang Jianfeng also closed the door and went to rest.
