Cao's resignation is really hard to say.

Why should a teacher embark on the road of running an industry? In the face of our questions, Cao smiled faintly and said that his family was poor at that time, and he always tried his best to solve the poverty problem. The watch he wears and the bike he rides are all paid by him for cutting grass and transplanting rice seedlings. Give and you will get. Cao realized this simple truth in his life, or he understood it better than anyone else. Not only that, he also sells balloons for a few cents in the street; On a hot day, he rides a bike, sweats and sells popsicles. I also sold timber from Nanchang to Jiangxiang. When he was the head of school logistics in Jiangxiang Central Primary School, he was moved when he saw a colleague raising pigs, and a pig could earn hundreds of dollars. He thinks this is a way to get rich. After several days of repeated thinking, he resolutely resigned from his teaching post and started his own road to running an industry.

From 65438 to 0989, he began to contract fish ponds, went to Zhejiang to buy piglets, and set up a pigsty on the sandbar. I sleep in a shed with linoleum beside the pigsty. The only 100 yuan was buried in the sand for fear of being stolen or robbed at night. That winter, his wife came to see him with two young sons, and the family slept in the shed at night. The north wind is howling, the snow is falling, the shed is not windproof, and the snow keeps coming in from the cracks in the linoleum. It's snowing heavily outside, and it's snowing lightly inside. Cao, no matter how cold and tired he is, can stand it, but he can't stand watching two children huddle in a cold ball and tremble in the quilt. He stared silently, tears streaming down his eyes. This is the first time he has shed tears since he started his business.

1993, Cao has been raising pigs for more than four years. Due to the lack of pig-raising experience and necessary technology, I calculated that I didn't earn a penny. When Cao was walking in Jiangxiang Town, from time to time, someone sarcastically asked behind his back, "What kind of pigs do you keep if you are a good teacher?" See what he can throw! "

Cao still remembers the cold spring in 1994, when he raised more than 1000 piglets. In order to build a solid and perfect pigsty, he went to Nanchang to buy the demolished waste during the day, and drove a walking tractor to pull it in the middle of the night (walking tractors can't enter the city during the day). That year, the cold current came quickly, reaching MINUS 89 degrees Celsius, and Cao had no money. In order to raise 5,000 yuan to buy a generator for heating pigs, he went to many places and borrowed money from friends and credit cooperatives. But no one wants to lend him money. It was so cold that Cao returned to the pigsty in Shazhou and broke out in a sweat. There is no way, so he has to constantly patrol the pigsty and cover up all the places where the wind may enter. Nevertheless, at dawn, he counted the pigsty and found that more than 100 piglets were frozen to death. He sat on the cold beach and shed tears again.
