"After taking Lei Feng's gun, Lei Feng is our good example; after taking Lei Feng's gun, millions of Lei Feng are growing.

Learn from him and be infinitely loyal to the people; learn from him and be merciless to the enemy; learn from him and give your youth to the motherland, fight for communism for life, be selfless, and be a screw that never rusts.

Be humble and cautious, always revolutionize, and be a good student of Chairman Mao.”

Fang Dajun carried a hoe and looked at the green land. He couldn't help but sang a song "Take Lei Feng's Gun". This is a compulsory song in the junior high school textbooks now!

The sentence in it: "It is special for self-interest, and it is not beneficial to others." He agrees very much!

There are two pieces of land in the back of the house that add up to more than 100 square meters. This is the home's private land, which is not within the national measurement range, so the things planted in the private land do not need to be handed over.

My parents and second sister are diligent and manage this land very well. One piece is planted with vegetables and radishes, and the other piece is planted with sweet potatoes.

Sweet potatoes, corn, and wheat are things that are planted alternately. Corn from March to August, sweet potatoes from June to October, and wheat from October to May to May of the following year. According to the weather of that year, there will be a slight difference in sowing and harvesting time.

Sweet potatoes can be planted next to the roots of corn, which means they can be planted overlappingly in a piece of land. The time between sweet potatoes and wheat does not conflict, so sweet potatoes are really good things!

The time between corn and wheat has just clashed for more than two months. There was no way, so I had to postpone the corn sowing time, which would lead to a loss of part of the corn harvest. The villagers in Sichuan came up with a solution, which was to focus on cultivating corn seedlings first, which would only reduce the corn planting cycle by more than one month, and prevent the reduction of the harvest to the greatest extent.

Until thirty years later, most areas in Sichuan still retained the tradition of corn transplantation! In addition, before planting sweet potatoes in June, they were cultivated and then transplanted. The wheat was directly pitted and sown into the soil.

Also, if you want to grow rapeseed and squeeze rapeseed oil (clear oil), you can only give up wheat, because the planting cycles between rapeseed and wheat are basically in conflict and there is no way to reconcile it!

Of course, if you don’t bother, you can put the farmland dry and then plant rapeseed. After harvesting the rapeseed in May, you will quickly change the dry land to paddy fields to plant rice. The rice should have been planted in April, which will lose some of the rice harvest.

Although each has its own losses, it is still much better than planting a single crop. If villagers see vacant land, they will definitely find ways to make use of it.

The solution is thought of by people, and those with ambition can accomplish their goals!

Although it is only September now, the sweet potatoes can be dug, but they are not yet full and are still relatively small. Fang Dajun walked into the soil and used his hand to dig out the soil at the root of a sweet potato. If the old farmer saw this action, he might be scolded to death and waste food!

"Well, I'm a little smaller, but it's ready to use it!" Fang Dajun smiled with satisfaction.

Work started immediately. The hoe was no longer used. Just use your hand to dig out one sweet potato for each plant, so that it will not affect the continued growth of the remaining sweet potatoes.

"Brother, what are you doing?" Suddenly, a roar of anger that broke the charts.

Fang Dajun shivered instinctively, turned his head and shouted: "Second sister, you are here just in time, come here to help me!"

"I'll help you, why do you dig so many red potatoes? If you want to eat and dig one or two, it's enough!" Fang Yan's face turned pale. If the old man knew about this, it would not be her who was scolded.

Fang Dajun smiled and said, "It's okay, I can't suffer any loss. I want to give it to Yang Chuntao, that is, Secretary Wang's wife. Listen to me, I can't suffer any loss."

"Give it to her? Will people care about this little red potato in our family?" Fang Yan asked angrily.

"Hehe, it's not rare to just send red potatoes. You'll know after a while. You'll also ask for your help. If you want to go to high school and college with a glamorous magnificent style, then listen to me!" Fang Dajun said confidently.

"What the hell are you trying to do? If you don't explain it clearly, I won't let you dig red potatoes." Fang Yan found that she could no longer see through her younger brother. Why did she seem to be buried in coal once and then reborn?

Fang Dajun had no choice but to explain: "I am painting cakes for Yang Chuntao. How much does a pound of red potato cost now?"

"I don't know who can sell red potatoes. Besides, I can't sell them even if I want to." Fang Yan said with his mouth. Red potatoes don't have to be handed over to the country. This thing is not easy to preserve, and the people have to rely on red potatoes to survive. If even red potatoes are handed over, everyone can only drink the northwest wind.

Of course, this is also the late stage of the People's Commune, and the red potatoes needed to be handed over in the early years!

"Will anyone use sweet potatoes to make starch?" Fang Dajun asked again.

"Starry? You mean red potato starch. Only those who open a shop in Beidou can make some of them and use them to mix jelly to sell them to those cadres." Fang Yan replied.

"Where is the sweet potato vermicelli?" Fang Dajun smiled.

"Verinated noodles? They are only sold in the town during the Chinese New Year. This is New Year's goods. They are very expensive and cost 40 cents per kilogram. Do you want to?" Fang Yan was extremely surprised.

Fang Dajun smiled and said, "That's right, I just want to make vermicelli, and I don't do it alone, I just let the entire production brigade do it together."

He is quite satisfied with the price of vermicelli. In thirty years, better vermicelli can be sold for about nine yuan, two to three times that of rice. Nowadays, rice is more than one cent, and it is also three times that of vermicelli. It seems to be very interesting.

"The production brigade makes vermicelli together? Is this possible?" Fang Yan asked in disbelief.

Fang Dajun thought for a while and explained: "According to what I learned, one hundred pounds of sweet potatoes can produce 35 and a half pounds of starch, which will shrink half after drying. One pound of dry starch can produce one pound and two taels of vermicelli, which means one hundred pounds of sweet potatoes can produce twenty pounds of vermicelli. Let's calculate it first based on 40 cents per pound. It is equivalent to one hundred pounds of sweet potatoes can sell for eight yuan. One pound of sweet potatoes can sell for eight cents per pound. Do you think you have made a profit or a loss? If vermicelli can sell for 50 cents or even six cents, then sweet potatoes can be sold for the price of chenmi. Moreover, as long as the vermicelli is not too dry, the weight will be more."

Fang Yan opened her mouth wide and asked incredibly: "How do you know so clearly? Can you make vermicelli?"

"Hehe, yes, I went to the town to play tricks and went to the town government cafeteria to learn secretly." He went to the cafeteria to play, which was true, but that was because there was a walnut tree outside the cafeteria, and he went to get walnuts last month.

"Then tell me, what did you plan?" Fang Yan became interested. If sweet potatoes can be sold at the price of rice, then everyone can share a lot of money. With money, she can really concentrate on studying.

Fang Dajun smiled, "The plan is very simple. If you want the production team to make vermicelli, you have to nod the commune cadres. I can't contact the top cadres at all, but now I can go through Yang Chuntao. You now understand why I have to dig sweet potatoes out in advance!"

"Do you want to make some vermicelli for Yang Chuntao now and then lead to the plan to make a lot of vermicelli?" Fang Yan's eyes lit up.

But Fang Dajun just wanted to use vermicelli as a stepping stone, and coal was his final plan. This was a business that was ineffective and had amazing profits.
