Chapter 21 Where is the loess not buried

When Zhao Shucheng passed by the village entrance, he saw Ma Defu. Ma Yingshui and Li Dayou and others squatted under the wall of the notice board at the entrance of the village entrance to hide from the sun.

"Uncle, what are you doing? Why are you hiding from the sun if you don't serve your earthworms at home?"

Li Dayou pointed to the announcement on the wall and said, "Oh, this is not a person who died on the railway. It happened to be in the territory of our Dianzhuang, but no one in the surrounding villages claimed it. We are discussing how to deal with this matter."

"This is Lu Dong's branch secretary. He discussed with us that he buried the young man in this man, intending to ask everyone to help him and let him be buried in peace." Ma Defu also introduced an old man wearing glasses and holding a cane.

"Who said no? I have searched all around me, but no one has come to claim it. The weather is so hot. If you don't ask him to buy it quickly, it will smell bad in two days." Li Dayou said a little annoyed.

Zhao Shucheng didn't want to interfere in this matter, but he thought that many immigrants are still running between the Dianzhuang and his hometown, and there are many barriers between the immigrants and the indigenous people. The indigenous people felt that immigrants came here to rob their job opportunities, and their fields and water. In recent years, there have been many conflicts between the indigenous people and the Dianzhuang households, but fortunately they have been suppressed.

"It's not our turn to deal with this matter, but it's all a life and is born by our parents. Now that people are dead, they should be buried in peace."

"Uncles, say something unlucky. Besides, there are many people who go out to work in our village now. If they encounter such a thing outside, he can't lie pitifully on the side of the road without anyone to care, right? If someone can cover our children and children with mats and hold a cup of dirt, even if we can't repay the kindness we will never be able to repay in our lives."

"Yes, yes, our village also wants to follow the customs and bury this young man with great deeds. If he does this kind of good deed, the people here will have merits, and our children will also have blessings outside." The old man from Tiedong also said in agreement.

"Besides, our hangzhuang has been here for many years. This is our second hometown. If nothing unexpected happens in the future, we will retire here, or even buried here underground. Even if this young man is the first person we hang, he will be a model for us. In the future, we will take root here and never leave again."

"As the saying goes, where is the loess not buried? We settle here now and we will definitely have to buried it in the future. We can't cause trouble for our descendants and let them run hundreds of miles to visit the grave."

Zhao Shucheng expressed his true thoughts, and the others immediately looked at each other.

Most of them who were hiding from the sun were old men in their fifties and sixties. Although they didn't care about it, they had long been worried about life and death. When they heard Zhao Shucheng's words, they hesitated when they thought of their ancestral tombs and the land here.

Ma Defu thought Zhao Shucheng's words were very reasonable, and said, "Da, what do you think you will do this?"

"No matter whether he is a huddle farmhouse in Xihaigu or not, as long as he stops at our huddle ground to pick him up, he will be our fellow villager."

"Well, if we can raise some money for each family to give him a big coffin, give him a grand funeral, and mark his grave. If someone comes to look for him in the future, we can point at the grave to show him. This will not embarrass the people in our Jintan Village."

Ma Yingshui thought for a while and said, "This matter can work. Now everyone in our village is rich in raising chickens. It's not bad for these three or five yuan. The funeral will definitely be done."

When the others heard Ma shouting water, they looked at each other. Although they were reluctant to spend money, they thought that if this young man was buried and he would handle it with the indigenous people, they would definitely be able to ease the relationship. When they encountered the water for the Yangshui Station, it would be difficult for everyone to break up.

"I think it's OK!"

"Just do it like this!"

Everyone agreed, and it was decided to make the matter.

The next thing was that Ma Defu and Secretary Su Hongyi of Tiedong were handled together. They had originally simply buried a stranger in the countryside, but this incident vibrated all the surrounding village households and indigenous people. When they heard that they wanted to bury the young man, they all had money and strength, and even the local constables paid.

On the day of the funeral of this young man, except for the hangzhuang households who really couldn't come, everyone who was free came to attend the funeral. From the beginning, there were only more than 100 people from Jintan Village and Tiedong Village, and later there were more and more people, stretching hundreds of meters and thousands of meters.

They are not only trying to funeral this young man, but also slowly integrating themselves into this land. Today, they are giving funeral to strangers, which is a reconciliation for themselves and the indigenous people.

Of course, ordinary villagers did not think so deeply, but they felt that they should come. The indigenous people thought that this young man was buried here, even if they were locals. The dangzhuangmen felt that this young man was very similar to him and came here to make a living. In the future, they would also bury the Gobi Desert.

When Zhao Shucheng saw the funeral crowd, he felt that this young man was not a loss. Throughout history, how many ordinary people have had these thousands or even tens of thousands of people in the funeral? In addition to good officials, even those who have been the prime minister of the court and prime minister in history only have their own family members when they were funerals, and at most they had relatives and friends.

Of course, this situation has something to do with the simplicity of people's hearts today. They just simply think that this young man cannot just expose his corpse in the wilderness, nor can he dig a hole to bury it. Although it is good to have a straw swept across the burial, he must have a burial to be able to be a grand burial, which is also considered accumulating virtue and doing good deeds.

After this incident, the relationship between immigrants at the immigration site has improved and they will communicate directly with each other if they have any problems. It is rare that you look down on me and I dislike you.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! People in Jintan Village also found this benefit, that is, many of the Aboriginal people actually breed earthworms and chickens. However, because the relationship was very delicate, most of the Aboriginal people did not sell the chickens directly to the people in Jintan Village, but instead sold them to chicken dealers. Now the relationship between the two sides is good and they can do business directly. Although the chickens are still the same, the money they have in the Aboriginal people is also a lot of money, but when they get it, there are fewer middlemen, so they are considered to be much cheaper.

Many dangling farmers in Jintan Village and even Yuquanying now work in other places, some join big-pan chicken shops and do food business. Some really can't do it, so they go directly to work for others. Nowadays, the elderly and most of the young people can go out. Because they can earn more money in the city and have a better life.

Thanks to the slaughterhouse opened by Zhao Shucheng, Jintan Dapan Chicken Food Factory, and the working night school, young people in the surrounding villages can find jobs, so there is no incident in the original plot where young people are catching trains.

Of course, there are still thieves on the train. Although the people in Yuquanying have a way to make money, there must be people from other places who are so poor that they can’t afford to eat and want to go through the wrong path.

After Chen Jinshan and Ling Yinong met on the train, they inevitably encountered a thief. In the end, Ma Defu appeared to help Chen Jinshan explain the situation.

Before Chen Jinshan came, he heard from others that Jintan Village and Yuquanying were developing well, and he felt it was a bit exaggerated before. But when he really arrived at Jintan Village, he saw that every household was full of brick and tile houses, which was incredible.

"Why are all brick and tile houses here? Did the county government build it together?"

Ma Defu felt that he said, "No, these are all houses built by the people in the Russian village themselves."

"How is that possible? I have seen all of you houses. The styles outside are the same. If it weren't for a unified planning, it would be impossible to achieve this level."

Ma Defu stood here and said proudly: "This is really not built in a unified way. These houses were not built in batches. The earliest ones were built by An Yongfu's family, which was in 1991. After that, village names wanted to renovate them into brick and tile houses, so they built them directly in the style of their houses."

"En Yongfu?"

Chen Jinshan felt very familiar when he heard this name and couldn't help but pronounce it out.

"Cadre Chen, do you know An Yongfu too? Yes, the novels he wrote are very popular, and many people should know them."

"You are talking about the An Yongfu who wrote the novel? I'm so clear. I've seen his Loess Plateau. It's because you saw this book that I'm not opposed to being a cadre here. It's like seeing what kind of scene it is."

"You said you all built your own brick and tile houses. Are the people here so rich? Then why do you still need us to help the poor?"

Ma Defu knew that Chen Jinshan had a misunderstanding, so he directly began to introduce the specific situation of Jintan Village to him, and explained that Jintan Village is an alternative to the entire Yuquanying and also the signboard of Yuquanying. It is because it has the role of Jintan Village as an example, new immigrants are willing to participate in the immigration of the Danzhuang, which plays a very important role in their work.

Only then did Chen Jinshan realize that there was a talented person in Jintan Village. Because of An Yongfu's first to get rich, he even invested in the construction of a machine well himself, which made Jintan Village develop faster than other villages. Even because of the family breeding project he thought of, many villagers in Jintan Village and even Haiji County had the means to get rich.

Of course, in his opinion, the current economy of Jintan Village is still very weak. Although many people raise chickens, they don’t make much money. If it weren’t for Zhao Shucheng’s slaughterhouse and food factory, I’m afraid the income of Jintan Village would have been much lower.
