At 8 p.m. on December 28, Chen Li's shouts floated from a distance, "Jianhua, there is your telegram."

Long Jianhua walked out of the house and walked four or five inches deep snow to the edge of the house and responded loudly, "Brother Liqian, what do you think is it~"

"It's not good, come and see, why don't I send it to you~"

"It's okay. Just open it up~"

"The seeds are here! Wow, the seeds are here, I want you to go back and get them~"

Long Jianhua thought it was this.

Before coming, I had already made an agreement with Pan Wenhua that if there was a chance to leave the province, I would send a telegram; if the seeds arrived, I would send a telegram, and there were only these two situations. In fact, no matter what the situation was, I didn’t need to hide it from the people from Team Ninth.

"Brother Liqian, tell Shengfan, I will find twelve people to help me squeeze oil before seven o'clock tomorrow, and we will get the seeds the day after tomorrow~"

Every day, Long Jianhua digs back a load of Gastrodia elata from the snow, and he never thought about pressing oil.

If you squeeze it or not, the camellia seeds will be piled up in the house; if you dig it or not, the money you come in will be different.

By this afternoon, he earned 1,865 yuan and 872 yuan of Gastrodia elata by selling ginseng, which made the banknotes in his pocket reach more than 3,800 yuan - a large amount of only 500 yuan less than before he went back last time.

At seven o'clock in the morning on the 29th, Chen Shengfan came from the north canyon with ten strong laborers, and another one was Chen Li's wife Zhang Shulan.

When they walked up the floor, they saw Long Jianhua catching sparrows out from a large sieve with his butt sticking out.

Chen Yuanshan laughed and said, "Jianhua, you are really good. It is better to go out and have this leisure. If you can't find other medicinal materials, you still have some fragmented grass roots."

Long Jianhua laughed, "I tell you, during this period, I have caught one or two sieve sparrows every day, and found some medicinal materials - there are still medicinal materials outside our ninth team. One day, I went to the back of the mountain and saw eleven big wild boars. Although the largest one was not the big one we killed, the eleven were very well-proportioned, the small one weighed 160 or 70 kilograms, and the large one was about 200 kilograms."

Chen Liqiang said in a slight rumble, "If we kill them all, our team 9 will not worry about meat next year."

Chen Shengfan laughed and said, "That's it. It seems that we have to think of ways to get a few of those wild boars back. Didn't we say we could rely on the mountains to eat the mountains? If this is not close to the water, we will live here in vain."

Long Jianhua didn't talk to them, but just quickly pulled out the sparrows from the sun; soon, seventeen sparrows covered in the sieve were placed beside him.

"There are many. Seventeen, you can drink wine once." Chen Lishi laughed at this.

"Okay, we will drink it happily when we come back from pressing the oil. After drinking it, we will go to get the seeds tomorrow."

Chen Shengfan said, "Uncle Jianhua, my third uncle said he wanted to go with us to get seeds tomorrow."

Long Jianhua nodded and said, "This has been discussed before."

He always felt uncomfortable with Chen Shengfan calling his uncle, and he was seven years older than him.

But Old Mrs. Zhao and Chen Liping insisted on this requirement. The younger generation of their whole family was also shouting "Uncle Jianhua" and "Grandpa Jianhua"; after shouting for a long time, he gradually felt uncomfortable.

Then he clapped his hands, "I have dried all the camellia seeds, so I just need to pick them to the district oil press factory. I will talk about some things first. Today I will take care of everyone's lunch, I will pay the processing fee for the oil press, I will pay 70% of the oil pressed, and you twelve of the rest are equally divided; it is okay to plant some oil cakes, and you can add some insects to it. If anyone wants it... let's do this, I will leave ten kilograms, and you will share the rest equally."

Chen Yuanshan laughed and said, "Jianhua, we are embarrassed to do this. We just need to carry a load and run."

Long Jianhua shook his head, "You can't say that, you're going to be in the 24th and 5th round. Now no one in Team Ninth is short of this few cents, so I'm very grateful to be able to help me."

Although Team Ninth Team is rich now, the carpenter still only has 50 cents a day and apprentices have 1 cent to 1 cent to 5 cents a day.

Long Jianhua didn't give them this wage, but gave them oil, 75 cents a pound of oil. Now every family still lacks oil, which is not a matter of money.

Long Jianhua himself had to carry a load of Gastrodia elata to sell, so the eleven men's laborers were all full, and only Zhang Shulan had only a little more than half a load.

The reason why Zhang Shulan came was that Chen Shengfan thought it was appropriate for each family to come to help, and the other was that she wanted to come and help herself.

Because of Long Jianhua, Chen Liqian could only eat national grain, and he could receive food coupons, oil coupons and tofu coupons every month, which he could only see from others.

The group of people crunched on the thick snow. When they arrived at the supply and marketing cooperative, the supply and marketing cooperative opened the door, and Long Jianhua sold Gastrodia elata for 92 yuan.

Then, he divided some camellia seeds from eleven male laborers and reduced everyone's weight by six or seven kilograms.

At half past nine, the group arrived at the district oil pressing plant. They happened to encounter a pot of steamed tea seeds poured out and prepared to start frying. No one else lined up. The master in charge of steaming showed his yellow teeth and laughed, "You are here at a good time, just in time no one lined up."

The oil press has six steamers, three extra-large and three small. The extra-large steamer can steam 500 kilograms of camellia seeds at a time, and these camellia seeds from Long Jianhua can be steamed at one time.

After pouring camellia seeds into the steamer, Long Jianhua looked at the entire oil pressing process, then took out eight kilograms of grain coupons and twelve yuan to Chen Shengfan, "It will take six hours to produce oil. It's nothing more. Let's go shopping and eat after shopping. Each person has six or two meters, one yuan, don't save it."

Master Huangya was smoking outside the door and shouting, "Where are you from? You have to eat so much food in one meal. Are you going to eat dragon meat?"

Long Jianhua laughed and said, "Hold it first, what if it's less?"

Chen Shengfan was not polite, so he took the food coupons and money, and went out to the streets with those people.

Long Jianhua doesn’t want to go out on the street. He has nothing to sell and nothing to buy now. It’s better to look at the original oil pressing process here.

The steamed camellia seeds only have a five-foot wooden steamer and an eight-foot iron pot, and of course, there is a solid stove that matches it.

Master Huang Ya is responsible for the two processes of steaming and frying. He is very skilled in this and can basically ensure that the upper and lower height of the flame does not exceed two centimeters, which should be considered a unique skill.

Fried camellia seeds are completely hard to stir-fry. Pour the steamed camellia seeds into a large iron pot, and a strong man frys them in the pot with a large iron shovel, so that the camellia seeds are heated evenly and kept at 13 to 140 degrees.

After the color of camellia seeds became darker to a certain extent, the strong man yelled, "Prepare to start squeezing!"

The district oil press is most proud of being the spiral press, which is said to be the first in the county. Other districts are still using the oldest way of using people to make wedges and squeeze them with giant trees. The speed is slow and the oil yield is low.

There were seven people in the oil press factory. Long Jianhua gave each of them a pack of economic cigarettes and said to them, "I'm going to bother you next."
