Chapter 290 Chat with Comrades

Aunt Li still loved herself, and immediately criticized Uncle Li Da.

How should I put it at this point in the 60s? In terms of exporting and earning foreign exchange, Longguo focused on light industrial products and raw materials. As for heavy industry, there was no way around it. Even with a solid foundation for development, it would not work. At most it was aid, yes, aid, but many of the people who provided aid were ungrateful.

Not to mention the heavy industry, the export of raw materials is really not that profitable. If you want to play, play with the final product. If you want to optimize it, then start with the food sector.

"You are playing a big game. Your idea is good, but it involves a lot of things. We need to make this product and see the situation first. OK, write me a report later so I can study it!"

Li Da stroked his chin and thought about it. What Wang Luo said was right. Who would complain about making little money? They didn’t understand it before, but since it was mentioned, why not give it a try!

"No problem, I'll bring you the report tomorrow or the day after tomorrow!"

After finishing the meal and talking, Wang Luo stood up to leave. Aunt Li stuffed several canned foods and malted milk into Wang Luo's small pocket and asked him to take them back to Sister Yueyue.

Wang Luo went home, but Uncle Li Da couldn't sit still. He put down his bowl and ran straight to Uncle Chen's house.

"Old Chen, how are you today? You look good, a little rosy, not as pale as yesterday. That's good!"

We were all old comrades, so there was no need to be polite. We just sat down and started chatting.

"It was pretty good tonight. Xiao Luo made me some food. I ate it all and felt a little hungry again, so I had a bowl of white porridge. Don't tell me, I didn't think much of Xiao Luo before, but he grew up and became sensible in the blink of an eye. What he said today was very encouraging, but he was a little sinister. Haha, if it was in the past, he would probably be a master at harming people..."

Uncle Chen told Uncle Li Da everything Wang Luo had said to him.

"Well, he actually prescribed medicine for you, and you took it without asking any questions. His ability to make big promises is really amazing. He really dares to think big. Don't even mention whether his medical skills are half-baked. Even if it really works, the foreigner is a fool and will let him control you.

But what he said later sounded good. This kid is smart, but he just can't grasp his own pulse. Before, he was asked to apply to a military academy or a security school, but he refused. But then he got excited and went to study accounting. It seemed like he did it on purpose. I don't know what he was thinking.

But from what you said today, it seems that his attitude has changed again. This kid has a different temper and a different idea every day. No one knows what he is going to do. Haha, after talking to you, he came to my house and also painted a big pie for me.

He said that raw materials don’t make money, and if you want to make money, you can make money from processed products. He also suggested several good ideas to me. I don’t know if they will work, but they are good ideas after all, even though they are just some clever tricks. ”

Uncle Li quickly told his old comrade everything Wang Luo had told him about the food.

"It's not medicine, it's just some food. It tastes good. I'm in this state. I'll live one day at a time. I can be a test subject for that kid's dream. It's a pity. I don't know if I can live to see the era he described of a prosperous country and a strong people!
Old Li, after listening to what you said, I don't know if it will work, but people have thought of a way. Maybe that guy can really succeed. Why not give it a try?

Making money is good, but not making money doesn't matter either. You always have to try. Otherwise, everything costs money. You know what's happening with Big Brother. Now the aid has been cut off. If you want industrial equipment or something, you have to buy it with real money.

We don’t have that much money now. It’s all saved by ordinary people. I went to the countryside a few days ago and saw the life of ordinary people there. Alas, it’s not in line with our original dream! ”

Uncle Chen also spoke out his thoughts. "Okay, I think so too. Let him try and see if it works. I'll go ask him tomorrow!"

The two old comrades chatted for a long time before they dispersed.

Wang Luo is very busy now. He no longer cares about anything and decides to do something. He is not as timid as before, afraid of this and that, and only dares to do some insignificant little things.

I took a pen and paper and started writing a report at home that night. I wrote down the prospects of several foods I listed for Uncle Li, as well as foreigners' preferences and even their eating habits. This was the first report.

The second report was about what he planned to develop in his hometown, including the early structure, later output, sales and development prospects. In addition to growing food in good land, he also planned to grow economic crops in other low-yield areas based on local characteristics. All of this was written down in the report...

"Xiao Luo, hurry up and get up, finish your meal, and go to school!"

Early in the morning, He Yushui came to call Wang Luo. Only then did Wang Luo remember that school had started today and he had to go to school.

"You go first, and be careful on the road. I have a lot of things to do these days. Uncle Chen is sick, so I need to get him some medicine. I also need to visit Master Ye and learn some medical skills from him. Go to school and ask for leave for me! Don't forget to tell Uncle Qiu that they can still use the bone powder for a few days. I'll send him some later."

Wang Luo said to He Yushui after washing his face.

"Come on, I've figured it out. You insisted on asking me to apply for the accounting major and assigned me to the same class just so that I could help you take leave!"

When He Yushui heard that Wang Luo wanted her help to ask for leave again, she immediately started to blame him angrily.

"Don't say that, I'll get you something delicious later, hehe!"

After sending He Yushui away, I started to cook some scorpions and a small crocodile that I had taken out on the way home last night and send them to Uncle Chen.

"Xiao Luo, how can you do this? Can't you see that your uncle He is doing nothing at home? Come, leave it to me. You and your master should eat quickly. They are already on the table!"

He Daqing pointed to the fried dough sticks and soy milk on the table, took the things in his hand and went to the kitchen to get busy.

Now the three meals a day of Wang Luo and Li Jun are taken care of by the father and son of the old He family. Whoever of them is free will cook, and no one else needs to interfere. Now Li Jun and Liu Yue are eating breakfast at the table with peace of mind, while He Yuzhu has gone to work.

"Uncle He, do you know how to make bean curd? I want to make it into a spicy and fragrant snack that will make you want to eat more and more. It should not only be appetizing, but also delicious!"

Wang Luo grabbed He Daqing and described to him what the bean curd spicy strips of later generations looked like.
