Chapter 576 Mao Zhu Educates His Son
Chapter 576 576. Mao Zhu educates his son
When Zhou Tianyu woke up, it was already past eight o'clock. The sun was hanging brightly in the sky. He was sweating after walking around the yard twice.
The house was quiet. His father had just come back carrying a dark blue pesticide barrel.
"Dad, it's so hot, why are you spraying pesticides now?"
"We have to. We were too busy in the spring to take care of the fields. Your mother still has to pick tea leaves from the fields. The grass in the tea garden and vegetable garden has grown very tall."
Let alone weeding. His tea garden is much larger than Song Tan's. It's more than ten acres of land. It's not easy to pull out the weeds by the roots. The roots of the weeds are deep. It takes a lot of effort to pull them out. It's very tiring!
Moreover, the couple pulled the weeds in the tea garden of more than ten acres by hand. It took them half a month to do it. When they looked back, the weeds grew lushly again in the first few acres of land.
We still have to rely on spraying pesticides.
After all, every spring, fresh leaves are picked and sold in the market. After two months of work, you can earn tens of thousands of yuan!
Zhou Tianyu nodded, and then asked: "Where is my mother?"
Zhou Maozhu put down the medicine barrel, washed his hands and wiped the sweat while saying: "She went to Song Tan's tea garden. There are cut tea branches in the tea garden, and they have to be transported back. It takes three or five carts to pluck the leaves, but that is in the yard, there is no sun, there are fans... It is estimated that it will take until ten o'clock."
"If you are hungry, there is porridge in the pot, eat first."
Zhou Tianyu was a little unhappy: "It's so hot, why do you let my mother do this?"
"What?" Zhou Maozhu raised his voice: "Including transporting and plucking, it takes 150 a day! If it is not hot, how can you get this price? It would be stupid not to make money?"
At five or six in the morning, go to the mountain to put the tea branches on the tricycle, and Zhang Wangjia will ride the bicycle to deliver them to the yard. The tea branches are loose and not tied, and generally seven or eight trips are enough.
They are not tired, they just move the leaves from the field to the truck. It is a bit hot and sweats a lot.
Then, at 8:30, it is almost hot, so we can go back to the yard to pluck leaves and work until 10 o'clock.
In the afternoon, we work from 4 o'clock to 6:30, and we can go home to cook or something...
That's 150 a day, it's really hot, Song Tan's family doesn't want that old lady to move and lift, so they can get this price!
Those old ladies who don't do this and just pluck leaves, 100 a day.
"If your mother is not still young, she would have to do this job."
My mother is still young? My mother is fifty years old!
Zhou Tianyu was speechless.
But when he thought about it, he felt a little uncomfortable: "You fried tea leaves for her family in the spring, and my mother plucked leaves for her in the summer... We have become his employees."
They are almost the same age and from the same village. His monthly salary is enough to buy one and a half kilograms of tea... Why is the gap so big?
Zhou Maozhu sighed: "I think so. Zhang Wang's family in the back mountain works for Song Tan's family. It's not much a month, 2500, but food is included-"
Oh, if it was the same as the day before yesterday, if it wasn't for saving money, he would do it for 1500!
Speaking of this, I am really envious: "You didn't see that Zhang Wang's family was like stepping into a coffin at the beginning of spring, and they were totally out of spirit."
"Now! His face is full, and his complexion is so good! He walks with a limp! He is so energetic! And the work is not heavy, and he can drive a tricycle!"
2500, the salary is not high for the villagers. But the problem is that this is a job at home!
And what heavy work can Zhang Wang do with a limp?
Prepare fertilizer, look after the fields, peaches and watermelons, ride a bike to transport things...
Isn't this beautiful!
Looking at his son's haggard face after a day of rest at home yesterday, Zhou Maozhu couldn't help but feel a little disgusted: "You make more than 10,000 yuan a month, how much have you saved?"
Zhou Tianyu instantly shrank back and stammered:
"The consumption there is high, and you have to rent a house, pay for water and electricity, commute... eat out from time to time, and socialize..."
An average of 15,000 yuan a month, it's good to save 5,000 yuan. He has been struggling for more than two years, and fortunately he didn't go from nothing to debt, but saved 50,000 yuan...
Ahem!
Compared with other young people, he worked very hard!
Zhou Maozhu took out his mobile phone and calculated: "Two and a half years, saving 50,000 yuan, an average of 1,600 yuan a month? Then how do you spend more than 10,000 yuan a month?"
The honest man's eyes went dark, and he really couldn't figure out how he lived like this! Where did the money go!
Zhou Tianyu was also wronged!
He had to rent a house over 2,000 yuan a month there, and he lived in a remote and shabby house! Then the company always works overtime, and when hungry, they order takeout drinks or something, which is quite normal, right?
He also has three people under him, and occasionally they eat, drink and sing songs...
In short, he has been very restrained, and he didn't even apply for a credit card!
Zhou Maozhu couldn't understand, what drinks cost 20 or 30 yuan a cup, what takeout starts at 20 yuan and is delivered... He just muttered:
"You are not as good as Zhang Wang's family, at least he saves all his money. He can save more than 20,000 yuan a year! I heard that Song Tan said that he would not give out rice, flour, grain and oil for the Dragon Boat Festival, and he bought a new set of clothes directly..."
Zhou Tianyu was depressed: "You always say Song Tan, Song Tan... Isn't her family famous for the good taste of tea! What kind of varieties do they get, our family can learn from them, can't we grow them too?"
"What?!"
Zhou Maozhu never thought that his son would dare to think so, and immediately raised his voice: "Is their tea good? They spent millions to improve the water and soil and invited experts and professors to guide them!"
"How do you study? With the 50,000 yuan you saved?" He thought about it and exaggeratedly made an analogy:
"His tea branches are worth more than 50,000!"
What?
Millions? !
Zhou Tianyu almost cried - we are all from the same village, how come you are so outstanding?
That's really unimaginable, he can't even make millions by selling blood.
But then again -
"How can she be so rich?"
"What do you know!" Zhou Maozhu decided to cure his son's extravagant habit today. Song Tan has been making millions of dollars without saying anything, and even built a villa for his family, and he still drives that second-hand pickup truck when he goes out!
Unlike his son - he doesn't even bother to say that he even hires a car when he goes out and comes back (he is lucky to meet Zhang Yanping and others, and the four of them share 60 yuan!), there are buses and private cars from the city to the town, and it only costs 20 yuan to get to the town. When the time comes, he will ride a motorcycle to pick him up, how convenient!
This child is so extravagant!
At this moment, he said more and more seriously: "Song Tan went to the provincial capital after graduation, and his connections are amazing! He can get a loan of several million yuan, and he invites experts, and the experts he invites are all on the news!"
"Why is he so low-key? Unlike you, you just give away tea for 10,000 yuan a kilogram, you are so arrogant!"
"With your current wealth, who will pay attention to you when you go to the bank to apply for a loan?"
Zhou Tianyu was embarrassed to hear this.
Because, only 50,000 yuan...it is not enough for the down payment in Yuncheng, and if you go to the bank...you can only apply for a credit card at most.
The consumption concept of contemporary young people is really to enjoy life while they can...
But that's only a part of it, there are still many people who are good at saving money to live.
But unfortunately...I am one of the big spenders...(*)
