1980s Group-Pampering: Cannon-Fodder Real Young Lady Gets a Divorce and Becomes a Billionaire

  Chapter 21 Going to the County

  Nowadays, the chicks are too small to forage for themselves, so they are fed by Lan Dazhuang every day.

  More than a hundred young chickens have to eat a lot every day. The wheat that their family distributed from the trade union last year, and the wheat bran that they saved when peeling and grinding flour, have now gone to less than half.

  As these chicks grow in size, the remaining wheat bran will not last long!

  So the biggest problem right now is that the chicks are running out of rations—

   Lan Shu didn't pay attention to this situation before.

   She has no idea about the food storage situation at home, let alone the amount of wheat bran stored.

   Now that she heard the big brother talk about difficulties, she should solve them in time.

  When Lan Dazhuang came back in the evening, Lan Shu took out all the more than 1,400 yuan left over from their brother and sister's investment and handed it over to Lan Dazhuang.

   "Brother, we don't have any wheat bran in our family, so go and collect some from other people in the village."

  The money was all managed by Lan Shu before.

   And it was the first time Lan Dazhuang saw so much money.

  An ordinary person might have stared straight at a long time ago, but Lan Dazhuang has no interest in money. Now he is full of rations for the young chickens.

  He took a few out of a stack of big reunions, and stuffed the rest back to his sister.

   "Wheat bran is cheap, and you can get it for six or seven cents a catty. This money is enough to buy a lot. You keep the rest, little girl. I can't spend it if you give it too much."

  Lan Dazhuang said so, but Lan Shu didn't see any relaxed expression on his face.

   "Brother, is there anything else?" She looked at Lan Dazhuang suspiciously.

  If nothing happened, Lan Dazhuang wouldn't be frowning anymore.

   When asked, Lan Dazhuang sighed.

   "Although we have money now, it is not easy to collect wheat bran."

   "All the villages have been short of food in the past few years. A large part of the harvest of the arable land in the village has been handed over to the public grain, and the rest will be distributed to each household according to the centimeters accumulated by everyone working in the fields."

"In the village, children have no ability to work, women have little strength, do little work, and don't get much food. After a year, many people's food is not enough to eat, so they mix wheat bran in their rations. Eat it together, although the taste is a bit rough, but it can fill you up!"

  So, wheat bran is something to feed the chickens in her house, but it is food to fill the stomach in other people's house?

  After hearing the news, Lan Shu immediately understood the reason why her elder brother was worried.

  Families who can sell wheat bran for money must be in good condition and don't worry about food.

   But there are not many such families in the village.

   "I'll try to watch it these few days." Lan Dazhuang sighed again and again.

  From his tone, Lan Shu could tell that the elder brother didn't hold much hope.

   As for this matter, Lan Shu thinks more long-term.

Their free-range chicken farm now only has more than a hundred young chickens, and they have to worry about food. After that, when they expand the scale and raise a thousand, ten thousand, or even more, they need wheat bran. The quantity is astonishing!

  If there is no low-cost wheat bran to feed the chickens, their free-range chicken farm plan will not be able to go on.

  So this problem must be solved!

  In the current situation, if the village can’t get it, they will go to other villages to collect it. Maybe there will be food for the chickens in a short time, but not necessarily in the future.

  But the more than one hundred chicks on the mountain were not hungry.

  Suddenly, Lan Shu thought of a way—

   It’s actually not difficult to collect wheat bran in large quantities. As long as you go to a county where every household has no shortage of food to eat, isn’t it possible to collect as much as you want?

   Lan Shu originally planned to go to the county because of the sanitary napkin.

   Now, taking advantage of this opportunity, she is going to go ahead of schedule!

   Knowing that the younger sister is going to the county seat, Lan Dazhuang is not at ease.

  In the evening, when Lan Shengli and Chang Chunfang came back, they also heard about their daughter going to the city.

   The two of them immediately worried that their daughter went to the county town alone and had no one to rely on. What if they got into trouble, what if they were bullied?

   Lan Shu has long thought of a way to deal with this.

   "I'm not going alone, Xiaobai will go with me." Lan Shu said in front of her family.

   Xiaobai only learned about this from Sister Lan before Lan Shengli and Chang Chunfang came back tonight.

  Sister Lan wanted to go to the county alone, and even he was worried, so when Sister Lan asked him to accompany her, Xiaobai readily agreed!

   As for the fact that he has relatives in the county, there is no need to worry.

  The county is so big, as long as he doesn't take the initiative to walk near the other party, the chance of meeting acquaintances on the road is negligible.

  Because of Xiaobai's presence, the old couple of the Lan family instantly felt relieved!

  Lan Dazhuang took a deep look at Xiaobai, and murmured in his heart, although Xiaobai doesn't look like much flesh, but he is really strong. If my younger sister goes to the county with him, there should be no problem in terms of safety.

  Early the next morning, Lan Dazhuang drove his sister and his fellow Xiaobai to the county seat in a tractor.

  He has to go back to take care of the fruit saplings in the back mountain and the new round of sowing of winter wheat in the village, so he can't delay for too long.

  So he and his younger sister made an appointment to meet in the county town three days later.

   Three days is almost enough time for Lan Shu to collect a carload of wheat bran...

  …

  The county town is much more prosperous and lively than the village.

  It’s not like in the village. Many houses live in houses with mud walls mixed with straw and clay.

   Here, green brick and tile houses can be seen everywhere.

  Although Lan Shu has gotten used to living in the village during this time, after coming to the county town, she still feels that the environment in the county town is more comfortable and comfortable for her.

  Although she was an orphan in the past, she also grew up in the city. The place where she has lived for more than 20 years cannot be smoothed out in just one month.

   This feeling is not just for Lan Shu.

  Being by her side, Xiaobai also felt that he was more familiar with the environment of the county town.

  The place where he used to live was in the county seat?

   No, he vaguely remembered that the place he used to live looked better than here!

  Lan Shu's side, because she and Xiao Bai will stay in the county for at least a few days, so they must first settle the place to live.

  If you are going to live in a guest house, then they must have a letter of introduction from the village.

   When Lan Shu came out, she didn't plan to live in a guest house. She planned to rent a house in the county town.

   Renting a house is not expensive, it only costs a few dollars a month, and it is also convenient for her to have a place to store the wheat bran after collecting it.

   Moreover, the fact that she wants to collect wheat bran is a long-term business. As long as her free-range chicken farm keeps raising chickens, the demand for wheat bran will not stop.

  So after this calculation, renting a house is actually not a loss.
