When Zhang Dashuan heard this, he thought it made sense, so he stopped urging Zhang Dajiang and said instead: "Okay, just follow what you said, Brother Dajiang."
"By the way, don't tell anyone else about this first." Zhang Dajiang ordered a little worried.
"Don't worry, I still have this sense of propriety."
Zhang Dashuan assured.
With Zhang Dashuan and Zhang Dajiang keeping their mouths shut, the other people in Dahe Village returned to the village talking and laughing all the way.
Just when they were about to go home, Zhou Qing stopped them and said: "Ladies and gentlemen, I have something to do. Let's put our things back home later, and then everyone will gather under the big banyan tree in the middle of the village.
, let’s have a meeting, everyone should come, don’t leave anyone at home, everyone should come over, so we can get to know each other.”
Zhou Qing's words were very polite. After this trip, the people in Dahe Village had a good impression of Zhou Qing. Although they didn't know what happened to him, they were willing to give this small village chief some face.
They all smiled and agreed.
Only Zhang Dashuan and Zhang Dajiang understood it.
Zhang Dashuan came close to Zhang Dajiang and said in a low voice: "This little village chief is quite neat in his work. Come to think of it, I'll just come back and tell you."
He was pushed by Zhang Dajiang and said in disgust: "Go back and put things away quickly. You talk so much. It will be too late by then, so let everyone wait."
Zhang Dashuan turned around and saw that everyone had almost left. It was indeed not easy to delay, and he was busy and left.
After returning home, not only did he put away his things, but he also took his wife out.
Mrs. Sun, the daughter-in-law of the eldest son, was surprised for a moment as to why she was suddenly dragged out of the house.
When we arrived under the big banyan tree in the village, we found that almost everyone in the village was here.
Even the children gathered together to have fun. To be honest, Dahe Village had not seen such a lively scene for a long time.
There are many people who have similar feelings to her.
Shitou and Tiedan are boys from Dahe Village and the eldest among several children.
I saw both of them looking forward curiously.
From time to time they even whispered to each other.
"This is the new mayor of our village. He is about the same age as us."
"Yeah, I think it's the same. My mother didn't let me come out before. This is the first time I've met this little village chief."
"This is my first time, but I think Qian Xiaoniu has seen her before. I just heard her talk about it." Tiedan scratched his head and said suddenly.
"You remember wrong? The little girl only said that the village chief went to her house yesterday to look for her milk, but she didn't say that she had met the village chief."
Shitou's words stunned Tiedan, "Is that so?"
Two children were hit on the head by one person.
"The village chief is about to speak, why don't you two keep quiet?" Dad Shitou said in a rough voice.
Shitou and Tiedan both covered their heads and shut their mouths honestly.
At this time, Zhou Qing did not expect to find a higher place. He just introduced himself after everyone calmed down.
Although most of the villagers had already met Zhou Qing on the way to the county seat in the early morning, there were still many people who did not know Zhou Qing.
Zhou Qing's introduction at this time was mainly for these people, so that they could have a preliminary understanding of her.
"My name is Zhou Qing. I am barely a scholar from the previous dynasty. Now I am the new village chief of Dahe Village. We have already met many people. There are still some people I don't know yet. I believe we will all become familiar with each other in the future.
of."
Seeing that there was no big doubt, Zhou Qing continued: "I took a closer look in our village two days ago and found that most of the land in our village was deserted and covered with weeds. I looked at it and felt...
It hurts, and it’s really unreasonable to let it lie idle like this.”
These words resonated with many people below, but what can be done? Now that the new dynasty has been established, there are no young people in their families. They just want to farm, but they have no land, no labor, and no food.
What kind of seeds do they take?
Thinking of this, many people became depressed.
Seeing this, Zhou Qing knew that his words had touched their hearts.
"I know that the new dynasty has just been established, and a series of arrangements in the county have not been finalized yet. It is estimated that refugees will be arranged to enter our Dahe Village in the future, and then the land distribution will begin, but the time is not yet certain.
It's not good to leave the land uncultivated like this. There are not many people in our Dahe Village now, and there are only 15 households in Dahe Village. So I thought of choosing a piece of land first, and let's clear it out together and plant some vegetables, so that everyone can
Firstly, when everyone has a job, they are preparing for the subsequent division of land and farming. Secondly, the villagers take the vegetables produced and sell them to the county town to make money. Everyone thinks whether this method can work."
Some brave people asked, "Is it okay to sell vegetables here? Can anyone buy it?"
It's not that they don't understand, it's just that they used to grow vegetables at home and eat them at home, and no one had ever sold them to the county town.
In their minds, how much is this dish worth?
Just ask someone. The most fearful thing is silence and no one cares. So Zhou Qing seemed to be relieved and replied: "Don't worry about this. When I went to the county seat today, I deliberately visited various places.
There is a shortage of vegetables, and the price is much higher than usual. I asked, and the current price of vegetables is 20 yuan per catty, which is almost as high as the price of salt."
It was so expensive, something no one in Dahe Village had expected.
The dishes that cost a penny a pound before now cost so much.
It also scared many people.
Of course it aroused a lot of interest.
"Then little village chief, how will the money be calculated after selling this?"
"Yes, how do you calculate the money?"
"Little village chief, you just said we should plant together, why don't you let us each plant our own."
After the first question, the following questions naturally came one after another.
Although the crowd gradually became noisy, Zhou Qing did not continue talking, but patiently collected the various concerns of the villagers while waiting for them to quiet down.
Those who responded quickly have already noticed that although Zhou Qing is always smiling, for some reason, the villagers always feel that something is wrong when they look at him now.
Gradually, the voices of discussion and questioning became quieter.
But one or two eyes were still looking at Zhou Qing, obviously waiting for her answer.
Looking at the quiet crowd, Zhou Qing was very satisfied, and then he said: "I heard everyone's questions just now."
"The issue that everyone is most concerned about is the sharing of money, and the question of why they should plant together."
"Now let me tell you what I think. If you have any questions, you can leave them for a while. After I finish speaking, you can ask what you think."
Several elderly people in Dahe Village felt that there was nothing wrong with Zhou Qing's words, and they all agreed.
The eldest and most prestigious people all agreed, and the others naturally had no objections.
