Why did Niu Xiaoqiang think of starting such a farm? The main reason is actually to help his family alleviate their financial difficulties.

Growing up from a child to such a big age, Niu Xiaoqiang's family has never been rich in his memory, and he is always worried about money.

For example, when I was having dinner last night, my father Niu Dazhuang was depressed because he had no money to buy pesticides and fertilizers, so he had to pull down his face and ask relatives to borrow them. This is not an easy thing for him, who has always been very face-saving.

If you can borrow it, it's okay to say, if you can't borrow it, your family will not only lose their dignity and face, but they will also have no money to buy pesticides and fertilizers, and life will be difficult.

Niu Xiaoqiang was a fool in the past, he didn't have any feelings for dignity and face, and he couldn't understand the hardships of his parents to support his family. Since that heat stroke incident, he has undergone miraculous changes in his body, and he has deeply realized many things that he had not experienced before.

Niu Xiaoqiang doesn't want his parents to live with a heavy burden all day long, and he wants to do his best to help his family share difficulties and pressure. Before reading extracurricular books, he could only think about it and couldn't find a solution to the problem. When he read the extracurricular readings, his thoughts and insights were greatly expanded, and the farm project was born.

In Niu Xiaoqiang's view, the farm plan is very feasible, as long as he works hard, through the scientific breeding technology he saw in the books, he will be able to earn money to improve the economic situation of his family.

Niu Xiaodong and Niu Huahua saw that Niu Xiaoyong's water drift was so good, and they couldn't help but pick up the pebbles and start the water drift, and the three of them shouted to compete.

Niu Xiaoqiang did not participate, he picked up a sharp stone, wrote and drew on a large stone.

Seeing this, Niu Huahua came over: "Brother Xiaoqiang, what are you writing?"

Niu Xiaoqiang replied without looking back: "I'm inscribed on our farm." ”

Niu Xiaoyong and Niu Xiaodong also came over, and when Niu Xiaoqiang wrote the four big words "Hope Farm", they immediately applauded.

After a few people made a fuss, they sat around the stone with the four big characters of Hope Farm written on it, and discussed the next matters. said that it was a discussion, but in fact, Niu Xiaoqiang said that the other three people listened.

"Our first step is to get income from this wild pond, and other projects can only be carried out after making money, because everyone usually needs to help the family with farm work, so we can only carry out collective action when the cattle are herded, and as long as we come out to herd the cattle in the future, we will make an appointment to come and work together, and by the way, remember to bring a shovel, all remember?"

After the three of them nodded, Niu Xiaoqiang continued: "In addition to the shovel, the bucket for the fish should also be prepared, the snakeskin bag is not good, it will cover the fish to death, and the dead fish is worthless, therefore, if you want to transport the fish out, you can't do it without a bucket, which of you has an idle bucket?"

Niu Xiaoyong raised his right hand: "I have several wooden buckets at home, which were used by my grandfather, and after he passed away, these buckets were taken to the firewood room by my father, and they have not been touched for several years." ”

"This relationship is good, the bucket is provided by Xiao Yong, and then we need to find a good buyer in advance, let's go out together to inquire about the news during the lunch break, and no one wants to be lazy." ”

The three nodded again in agreement with Niu Xiaoqiang's opinion.

"And then, it's a matter of confidentiality, all the things about the farm, none of us are allowed to tell others, whoever dares to leak the news, I will fire whom, and all the shares will be recovered, everyone has no opinion on this, right?"

"No comments. ”

"Very good, let's talk about the money, once the fish is sold, we will have money in our hands, this money will be kept by me, you are not allowed to take it out to buy snacks, I will record every expense clearly, and then we will check the accounts together, do you have any comments on this?"

Anything that involves money is not a trivial matter, especially for these poor and scared mountain children, it is difficult to resist the temptation of snacks after having money. If the money from the sale of fish is used to sell food, the follow-up investment funds cannot be guaranteed, and the work of the farm cannot be carried out. Niu Xiaoqiang was unwilling to give up halfway, so he asked to take care of the money himself.

Niu Huahua and the three of them glanced at each other, and after exchanging glances, Niu Xiaodong spoke first: "Brother Qiang, of course there is no problem in handing over the money to you for safekeeping, but if you want to say that you don't buy any food, isn't it too stingy? At the very least, you have to buy a few popsicles to treat everyone, right?"

Niu Xiaoqiang thought for a moment and agreed to this request: "Okay, then just buy a few popsicles to satisfy your cravings, and we will definitely not buy expensive snacks such as canned food." ”

The three of them happily agreed, Niu Xiaoqiang continued: "Finally, let's talk about the matter of dividing the money, according to my estimates, after the farm starts to run, it will take at least half a year to produce benefits, and when the time comes, we will distribute it according to the proportion of shares they hold, before that, no one is allowed to ask for a penny, otherwise it is a breach of contract and will be fired, do you have any opinions?"

"No comment. ”

"Okay, let's talk about it first, I haven't thought of other matters for the time being, and I'll add them when I think about the follow-up. ”

After the discussion, Niu Xiaodong offered to take advantage of some time to do some capable work first.

Niu Xiaoqiang responded positively to his high enthusiasm for work, and he pointed to the open space at the foot of the mountain: "According to my plan, the pigsty will be built there, let's first build the frame of the pigsty with stones, and then buy cow felt to build a roof after making money." ”

Niu Xiaodong said yes to the three of them in unison, and then threw themselves into the work of building a pigsty together.

As for Niu Xiaoqiang, he walked around the pond with his hands behind his back like an adult. As he walked, he checked the situation in the pond, and estimated in his heart how many big fish might be hidden under the surface of the water, and whether they could support the cost of subsequent development.

When the sun rose, Niu Xiaoqiang beckoned the three of them home. Although the three of them were tired and sweaty, they smiled brighter than flowers when they saw the fruits of their labor.

The four of them climbed onto the back of the cow and walked home happily, Niu Xiaoyong couldn't help but sing while being happy:

"We are all sharpshooters, every bullet destroys an enemy, we are all flying troops, even if the mountains are high and deep...... There is no food, no clothing, the enemy has sent it forward, there is no gun, there is no cannon, the enemy made it for us, we grow here, every inch of land is our own, no matter who wants to seize it, we will fight with him to the end!"

At the beginning, it was only Niu Xiaoyong who sang alone, but later, the other three also joined in.

The loud singing voice wafted back and forth in the valley, and the young man's high fighting spirit was displayed in the rising sun, and the golden sunlight splashed on the faces of the four people, casting a layer of shining brilliance on their childish faces.

Niu Xiaoqiang turned his head to look at the pond behind him with a smile, he knew that this was the place where his dream began.
