Reborn in the 1980s: Recapture My Devoted Husband-Chapter 100 - 99: Have a Plan (One More Update)

"Lin Wan wants crayfish?" Huang Dashan glanced outside the door and whispered, "Lin Wan, how much are you looking to get?"

Seeing his expression, Lin Wan knew there was a way. "I need it regularly, at least fifty pounds a day, but they must meet my standards. If the crayfish are too small, it’s not acceptable."

"That much! How much are you offering per pound?" Sister-in-law Huang asked eagerly.

"One yuan per pound. If there are catfish, I’ll take them too, thirty cents per pound. The fish should be over a pound, twenty fish per day," Lin Wan said decisively and straightforwardly.

The Huang family found this tempting. It’s more profitable than mushroom picking. They have a winding river here with plenty of fish and shrimp, though not much else. Usually, when not working, villagers go to the river to catch a netful to satisfy their cravings. There’s plenty of this stuff, but it’s not valuable. Who would have thought they could sell it for money? Seeing the bright money, the Huang couple was tempted.

Seeing their troubled expressions, Lin Wan, being experienced, understood the situation somewhat.

"Brother Huang, don’t worry. Many places nationwide have already dissolved the communes and have become privately contracted. Our side privatized two years ago, and I’m sure it’ll happen here soon too. As for what I’m suggesting, you can absolutely discuss it with the village party secretary and village chief. Although it’s not a lot, it’s still a considerable income, and it’s beneficial for the village."

Listening to Lin Wan’s words, Huang Dashan became clear-minded and smiled at Lin Wan, "Sister, could you give us a few days to think it over?"

"Sure."

Huang Dashan helped Lin Wan pack five bags of mushrooms, called his elder brother and third uncle, and used the village team’s ox cart to help Lin Wan deliver the goods to the city, while also harboring some intentions.

He wanted to see where Lin Wan’s store was, hoping she wasn’t a fraud.

The store couldn’t fit five large bags of mushrooms. Lin Wan knew their intent was to check out her store, so she directly let them help transport to the store.

Seeing Lin Wan had such a large store, Huang Dashan felt reassured and left with his elder brother and third uncle.

His third uncle was the village chief. This time, he brought the third uncle along to show him Lin Wan’s store.

"Third Uncle, she wants fifty pounds of crayfish daily, over twenty catfish too. She’s offering us one yuan per pound for crayfish and thirty cents for fish. I think it’s feasible," Huang Dashan discussed the situation with his third uncle on the way back, who was the village chief.

Third Uncle thought quietly for a moment and came up with a good idea. "Just say the unit only buys crayfish from your family. After all, your family manages the village’s fish pond. Villagers wanting to earn some money can catch shrimp from the river when they’re not contributing during off-hours and bring them to you. I’ll discuss this with the team. Last time at the township meeting, it seemed we wouldn’t wait long, just a year or two."

"Uncle, how about buying crayfish from villagers at sixty cents per pound, we split twenty cents profit, and the remaining twenty cents go to the team. We can keep this under wraps,"

Third Uncle took a puff from his smoking pipe and nodded. freewebnσvel.cѳm

The brothers exchanged a knowing smile.
