Chapter 27 - Chapter 27:We have someone above.

Li You didn't know what happened in the county seat. At this time, he was pedaling his bicycle towards the county seat. After Secretary Wang left, those people in the commune still wanted to get close to him, but Li You was worried about his third sister, Li Na, and had no time to entangle with them. So Li You casually found an excuse and left the Hongqi Commune. Li You was very clear that those people got close to him just to get through him to Wang Anmin's line, not really valuing himself. And Li You planned to use the Wang family's line cautiously. After all, favors would only get thinner and thinner, and couldn't be wasted casually. Naturally, Li You didn't want to pay attention to those people either! Li You hadn't ridden this thing called a bicycle for many years, but he didn't expect that it would still be quite handy when riding, and it wasn't laborious at all! The distance from the Hongqi Commune to the county seat was more than ten kilometers, and he arrived in less than half an hour. This speed was really fast. In fact, Li You also found that after his rebirth, his body seemed to have undergone some kind of change. This change was not as powerful as the golden finger in the novel, but his strength increased a little and his physical fitness was better. Although it wasn't particularly obvious, Li You himself had a deep understanding. It was already eleven o'clock when he arrived in the county seat. Li You didn't go to the state-owned restaurant, but went straight to the sugar factory! When Li You arrived at the gate of the sugar factory, he found that his father, Li Shankui, and his third sister had already started setting up a stall. Seeing Li You coming, Li Na immediately said happily, "Has your matter been resolved?" "Well, it's resolved!" "What's going on anyway? The people in the commune are full and have nothing to do to investigate you?" Li Na immediately asked. Along the way today, she had been worried, fearing that something might really happen to Li You. When her younger brother stood intact in front of her, she knew that her younger brother was innocent, and the trace of worry in her heart turned into anger at those people in the commune. "It's nothing, just gave me a certificate of merit, and also gave 200 yuan!" "Ah, what do you mean? Why do people give you a certificate of merit and money?" Li Shankui asked puzzled. "Do you still remember the incident that I saved an old man on the day of my engagement?" "Why don't I remember? Because of this, your kid almost delayed the matter of proposing marriage!" Li Shankui said. Li You then explained, "The son of that old man is a leader in the county seat. After learning that we saved his father, he planned to thank us. Unexpectedly, the secretary passed the wrong message and made the commune misunderstand. In short, this is a big Big oolong!" Before Li Shankui could speak, he heard Li Na beside him say, "So that's the case. I was just saying, although your kid doesn't learn well, you don't have the guts to break the law!" Li You didn't want to entangle with his third sister on this matter, and immediately changed the topic and said, "Sister, how's the mountain goods selling?" "Guess?" "The quantity yesterday wasn't very large. I guess it's about 120 yuan?" Li Na smiled and said, "It's more than that!" "How much is it?" Li You also asked curiously, knowing that he was still very confident in his eyesight. The mountain goods added up yesterday were only about one hundred and seventy or eighty catties. According to the price, at most one hundred and twenty or thirty yuan, and the fluctuation would not exceed 5 yuan. This was the ability he had trained by going around the streets in his previous life, and it was almost impossible to make a mistake. "I won't tease you anymore. It sold for 153 yuan in total!" "That's not right. Why so much?" Li You asked in surprise. Li Na immediately said, "That big brother Liu said that there is a kind of mushroom called monkey something in our mountain goods. That thing is very valuable. One catty is worth 5 yuan!" "We have six and a half catties of that kind of mushroom. Just that thing sold for more than thirty yuan!" Reminded by Li Na, Li You suddenly remembered that yesterday those little brothers did pick a bag of Hericium erinaceus. Although he knew that the thing was really valuable in later generations, pure wild ones could sell for at least hundreds of yuan per kilogram. But he really didn't expect that this thing was already so valuable in this era, which was comparable to six or seven times the price of ordinary tea tree mushrooms. "Since that thing is so valuable, let Dongzi and them pick more in the future!" Li You said. "Well!" Just as they were talking, a pleasant bell rang from inside the sugar factory! The two knew that the workers in the sugar factory were about to get off work, and soon someone would come to buy cold noodles and white-skin cakes, so they immediately got ready. Sure enough, within a few minutes, hundreds of workers filed out of the factory and headed straight for Li You's stall! ..... At four o'clock in the afternoon, after stocking up, the father and son trio returned to the village! After moving the supplies home, Li Shankui didn't go to the field to help, but squatted on the ground smoking with an uncertain expression. Knowing that he had something to say when he saw his father like this. After so many years, didn't he know what kind of character his own father was! "Father, what's wrong with you?" Li You asked while tidying up. "You sit down, I have something to ask you!" Li You immediately put down the work in his hand and then came over and said, "Father, ask, I'm listening!" "Why don't you just sell mountain goods in the future, and don't sell that cold noodle anymore, okay?" Before Li You could speak, he heard Li Na, the third sister, shout first, "Why? Dad, you're not blind to how prosperous Xiaoyou's business is. It's a pity not to do it!" Li Shankui took a few hard puffs on the dry tobacco pipe and then said, "I just saw that the business was so prosperous, so I didn't dare to let your younger brother continue to do it! Don't forget, the agricultural cooperative hasn't been dismantled yet!" Li You knew what his father was worried about. The agricultural cooperative hadn't been dismantled, and the planned economy was still implemented in the country. In this way, his behavior of setting up a stall and doing small business was illegal. If it was illegal, it might be reported, and even might be arrested and sentenced. "Father, the times have changed. The private economy has already been allowed in the country. Although it hasn't been implemented here yet, it has already started in the southern region!" Li You said. "Then wait until there is a policy here before you do it. Anyway, even if you sell mountain goods, you can make a lot of money!" Li Shankui said in a deep voice. "Father, selling mountain goods doesn't last long. After winter, there will be no mushrooms and fungus!" Li You said. "If there are no more, aren't you afraid of not having enough money for the New Year with the speed at which you earn money now?" Li You thought for a while and said, "Father, I know what you're worried about, but I promise nothing will happen!" "What do you guarantee with?" Then Li Shankui said loudly, "You're not a child now. You don't think about yourself, but also about that girl Xiaoying!" "A girl in the city followed you and has already been gossiped. If you are arrested again, then she won't be able to hold her head up even more!" Li You immediately said, "Father, do you know who the old man I saved that day?" Knowing that his father was stubborn in nature, and simply reasoning probably wouldn't work, Li You decided to move out Wang Anmin, this big mountain. "Who?" "He's called Wang Anmin, the top leader of our county!" Li You said surprisingly. "Top leader, county/secretary?" "Yes, he also said that if there is anything in the future, you can directly find him. We have someone above!" Li Shankui knew what his son meant and immediately fell silent. To be honest, seeing that his son made as much money as someone else's monthly salary just by selling cold noodles today, Li Shankui was also reluctant to give up in his heart. But thinking of the severity of cracking down on speculation and profiteering in the previous few years, he still decided to let his son endure the pain and not do it. If his son really had someone above, this matter might really be able to go on. After all, the situation in these years has really changed. Many people's chickens and pigs at home have far exceeded the amount stipulated by the commune, and many people have also secretly taken these poultry they raised to the black market to sell. Whether it was the commune or the production team, they
