*****
The next morning, as planned.that they would do the harvest that day.with the three of them actively working, let alone see the harvest is very abundant. only from one type of vegetable only their car is full, even there are still a few more beds that have not been harvested.
"Well, you took the wrong car, Tan! the new period of 5 beds only, the car is already filled with cucumbers."
"Thank God I didn't expect that the harvest would be like this. Kirain would fail!" fathan replied with gratitude.
"Keep the rest how?"
"Let's think again, who knows if the people in our village, there are those who have trucks, so we can easily send agricultural products, when our crops are abundant as they are now."
"There's Tan! in the Village Next door, Sukajadi Village! there's a car that belongs to Mr. Haji Rohman. The car is usually rented to transport goods from the city to the village, or from the village to the city."
"Seriously mang!" fathan said with a happy smile, Because God always eases every path he works.
"Seriously! When have you ever lied to me?"
"Yes already! let's go home, we're ready to go to town. Later we will return from New Town we meet Pak Haji rohman!"
"Emang Asep was invited by Kang?" asep asked as if he did not believe what he heard.
"Must dong! sometimes we have to go for a walk. later if there is time you should be able to bring a car, so we can share the tasks." Fathan replied with a smile.
"Well! thank you very much, Kang! thank you." said Asep who saw the look of his face showed happiness because not necessarily once a year he went to the city.
Finally the three of them were getting ready to travel to send goods, according to Asep, he went to the city only a small time. There was also a curse at his brother's house.
That same day, delivered by the prayers of his parents and aunt, the three of them set out for the city to meet Seno. Arriving in the city, Seno who had made a promise quickly invited Fathan to meet the person who would buy their crops.
When the vegetable collectors at the market saw that the cucumbers Fathan had brought were of excellent quality, without question he paid for all the vegetables Fathan had brought. and the besieger told Fathan to bring their agricultural goods again when they wanted to sell them.
Asep and Kamal they were very happy, because the results of their struggle were not in vain. After making the payment They also thanked Seno, who had helped him from start to finish. after saying thank you, Fathan and his two assistants said goodbye to take back his farm.
The following days they were preoccupied with harvesting, sending goods, getting money.harvest again, sending goods again. such is vegetable farming because vegetables will continue to be harvested in a period of once a week, until the growth period is exhausted.
Fathan is very selective, by choosing his best agricultural products so that he does not disappoint his customers, market collectors feel grateful, because the goods sent by Fathan are never bad, because there is never a bad one, the market monger felt grateful, and people who shop prefer farm produce managed by Fathan.
Harvesting unfinished vegetables, they have been preoccupied with harvesting rice that is so spilled. usually Kamal can from the rice fields only 1 ton and a half to 2 tons. when taken care of by experts, kamal harvest became 5.5 tons. so kamal very lucky because he got 1.7 tons, without having to spend a penny. while the rice of the people generally, they failed to harvest again. so they began to assume that Fathan is really very expert in agriculture. especially when seeing kamal who is very lucky to get 1.7 tons of rice without spending more capital and energy. so that the residents began to flock to Fathan, to ask him to take care of their respective fields.
That afternoon, as usual Fathan if not send agricultural produce to the city, they will sit down and coffee in the saung they made.
"How about Tan, the residents have met Mamang several times. To ask that you take care of their fields and lands?" tanya Kamal started the conversation.
"Either that! I'm thinking how, so they'll farm instead of relying on us."
"It's easy, tan! you just give a briefing, later if they don't want to, we don't have to take care of it or help it."
"Yes! later you tell the citizens, you give understanding in detail. They are sure they will understand. Oh yeah, when's the plan to round up the citizens?"
"How about Sunday night, we give thanks while discussing our plans."
"Good idea, huh! can I set up later." Kamal replied, offering himself.
"Well if it is like that, later on Sunday night we will hold a meeting of citizens, as well as hold a thanks."
Three days passed, finally the time that had been determined arrived.The residents flocked to follow the thanksgiving event held by Fathan.
After the residents gathered, Mr. Ustad began to lead prayers. ranging from Tahmid reading, prayer beads and reading the Koran. as a form of gratitude for the blessings given by the creator, as a form of gratitude for the blessings given by the creator, because Fathan's harvest this year is very satisfying.
"Assalamualaikum warahmatulli wabarakatuh!" said Fathan after they mate with a meal together.
"Waalaikumsalam Warahmatullahi Westarakatuh!" answer the people who attended.
"Before, I thanked the presence of brothers and sisters who deigned to attend my event.I mean to gather all the citizens of the village of sukadarma, apart from giving thanks for the blessings and gifts that God gave. I also want to discuss about my plans in developing our village farm. I want to find a solution so that the living standards of our Village are better and our villagers do not have to go out of town when we make a living. I have received several requests for me to take care of the land of the residents, but Yesterday I did not agree, Because my purpose of farming is not for myself. I want all villagers to be involved in it. not myself, not Mang Kamal or asep, but everything."
"Sorry Jang Fathan! like your ideals of height, do not because of the successful new harvest, you have dared to invite the citizens to gamble." refute someone in the midst of delivery.
"I'm sorry, before.not that I am arrogant, but as the citizens know, that I have proven.I can farm with the state of the land that he thinks our land is infertile. but I can prove that all the land can be planted, with good management and careful planning, then the harvest will be abundant" Fathan replied with a smile.
"Don't argue first! let Fathan convey his purpose, which I think all the citizens of our village must begin to accept the progress of the times
maybe the time is now we, let the younger generation lead us." said Mr. RT warned residents to listen to what was to be conveyed by Fathan
"People have just cheated!" Ujang grumbled while whispering to the person beside him, but the person put his index finger on his lips, indicating that Kang Ujang should stop babbling.
"Continue Tan!" exclaim mr. ustad.
"If the citizens want to join a joint business group, which I will establish, then I will provide assurance of control, maintenance and sales. we will work together to achieve the goal of our business group, which is to advance the village of sukadarma."
"It is if you want to doctrine the villagers with your own boasting. I beg you to resign." Ujang refuted.
"Why do we talk like that, I'm not bragging, I've proven ourselves that we can farm. Like the villages that have implemented the agricultural system first."
"Our villagers have been for decades, even from our own ancestors, they continue to farm. But there is no tuh, successful people from agriculture.meningan now we farm as usual, as our belief." pinta Ujang.
"Yes, if it is like that, I will not force but I only invite people who want to join."
"The citizens! Don't want to be fooled by the kid yesterday afternoon.because he just made it once, he wants to patronize us. with the frills of a joint venture group.we don't know what his goal is like, we don't know, maybe he'll use our land to make his own profit. Moreover, I heard that he has all the sophisticated machines that can be from debt.so I remind the citizens, do not want to be doctrinated by this person. because we are only used as cash cows to pay off the machines." said Ujang before leaving he began to spread hatred, against people who want to advance the village sukadarma.
Residents who heard the explanation from Ujang, quickly They whispered to each other, causing doubts when they wanted to join Fathan. until finally they decided to leave the meeting, leaving only a few people who already feel confident, that Fathan is not the person who as expected by Ujang.
"There were 20 survivors left, Tan. how about?" ask Kamal.
"Sorry you still want to join the joint venture group I'm going to set up?" ask Fathan, before resuming his discussion.
"You!" answer the people in unison.
"Alhamdulillah! I don't need crowds, but not commitment.I need people with high commitment, because farming as we know it, requires extra care and a very hard struggle."
"Keep next How's Tan?" ask RT sir who is still sitting in his place.
"Later we will take care of our farms together, and the result we share with all the members of the group."
"What do you mean, Tan?"
