In fact, Jiang Tao had already vaccinated me before they came, but I just didn't want to do the superficial work.
Who knew that I would meet him unexpectedly? I even suspected that this villager was waiting here on purpose and wanted to slander me in front of the leader.
But his answer surprised me very much. He actually smiled and said: "Okay, now we don't have to go to far away places to work like before. We can work in the fields near our homes. And Everyone works together, talks and laughs, and is not tired. Moreover, the environment is now better, and street lights have been installed. Everyone says the changes have been great! Our lives are also happier!"
When I heard what he said, I really didn't expect that he didn't even take out the land at home, and he was the one who least supported my work.
I even suspected that he came here on purpose to wait for us, but I didn't expect that he didn't say anything bad and kept praising how good our life is now.
Secretary Shen was naturally very satisfied when he heard this. He smiled and said to the villager: "Okay, fellow villager, you continue to work, and we will go further and have a look."
"Okay, goodbye, boss." It was quite polite.
I continued to walk forward with Secretary Shen and his team. The next people I met were villagers who had supported my work from the beginning. Secretary Shen also asked them the same thing.
Their answers naturally did not disappoint Secretary Shen. After walking around like this, Secretary Shen highly appreciated our work here.
After seeing off these leaders, it was already four o'clock in the afternoon. I went to the field again and found the villager who Secretary Shen had questioned before.
He is still working in the fields, because his family's land has not been taken out, so his family's land is here in our Yulin Village.
"Brother Wei, are you still busy?" I greeted him from afar.
When he saw me coming, he asked me: "Da Shan, those people who came just now are all the big leaders in the county, right?"
I shook my head and said with a smile: "They are not from the county, they are from the city. The person who just talked to you is Shen Tianxiang, secretary of the municipal party committee."
Lao Wei looked incredulous and said, "Oh my God! Has the municipal party secretary even talked to me?"
"No, but what surprises me the most is that you didn't say anything wrong about me in front of him."
Old Wei put down his hoe and sat down. I quickly walked over and took out a cigarette and gave him one.
After smoking, Lao Wei said again: "What did I say to you? Everyone has seen what you did, and there is nothing to say."
"But you don't know how scared I was at that time! Tell me, so many people have taken out their land, but you didn't take it, and you didn't support my work at the beginning. I was afraid that you would show up in front of Secretary Shen He said some bad things, but I was really surprised."
Old Wei took two puffs of cigarette and slowly said: "Da Shan, let me tell you the truth. There is no problem with the work you are doing and I have always supported it. It is the people in my room who do not support it."
As he spoke, Lao Wei sighed heavily, as if he was helpless, and continued: "What can I do? Now she sees that others can get dividends, work in the production team and still receive wages. She started to get jealous."
"That's it!" I thought for a moment and said, "Then what do you think now? Are you still willing to take out the land?"
Lao Wei almost didn't think about it, so he nodded and said, "Of course I am willing! I'm just afraid that you won't be willing."
I smiled and said, "I'd love to, Lao Wei, don't be so outspoken. Although we are not from the same village, we are both from Lisboa Town."
Old Wei sighed again and said: "Dashan! You have really done a great thing for our village! Fortunately, our family always targeted you before, and even teamed up with that old guy, Patriarch Liu, to frame you.
I really regret it!”
I also sat down next to Old Wei, lit a cigarette and said with a smile: "Old Wei, you really don't have to be like this. I'm doing all this for the sake of us all. It's totally fine for you to join in now."
, don’t have too much psychological burden.”
"Okay, then it's settled, I'll take out all the land in my family."
"No, no, no, no, Lao Wei, listen to me. You still have to keep some private land for yourselves so that you can grow fruits and vegetables. After all, we are still farmers and we can't all use it to grow grapes."
Old Wei seemed to think that what I said made sense, so he nodded and said: "Okay, it's up to you. As long as you admit that we can still join in now, I will be happy."
"The second batch of fruit seedlings will be in place soon. The land you provided is just suitable for planting the second batch of seedlings. There is no problem at all."
Old Wei nodded happily and suddenly asked me: "By the way, Dashan, I have something else to do. I wonder if I can trouble you."
"Old Wei, don't say trouble. As long as I can do it, I will never fail to help you."
"It's like this. My son works as a cement contractor in the city. I heard that the village is developing well now and a construction team has been set up to do construction. He wants to join in. But I think, our family has always been
I don’t have a job to support you, and I’m embarrassed to speak.”
"That's it"
Before I finished speaking, Lao Wei hurriedly said: "If the trouble is over, let him do it in the city."
I quickly said: "No, that's not what I meant. The construction team does send people. I'm worried about finding someone who has done plastering work elsewhere. Let your son do it. Just come to me directly."
Old Wei held my hand excitedly and said, "That's great, Dashan. I really wronged you before, but you are such a good person!"
I smiled. In fact, I was very happy. Being able to get the support of these villagers was also a kind of motivation for me.
From the beginning, less than half of the villagers were willing to give up their land for this purpose. Now, there are only a dozen households in Puyuan Town who have not yet given up their land.
I am very satisfied to be able to transform this closed place into what it is now in half a year.
However, I have to keep my nerves tight until I fully realize the benefits.
Rural work is not that easy to do. Even though these villagers trust me so much now, once they don't get any benefits, my life will not be easy.
When I got home in the evening, I received a call from Jiang Tao. He told me that the city leaders were highly satisfied with our work and decided to hold a meeting to discuss how to focus the city's agricultural and rural work on our side.
Such good news, to me, is like a test of my work over the past six months!
I have done it, and I have made it possible for such a poor and backward place to become the largest grape base in the province, and the only model in the province that breaks land boundaries.
As long as the higher authorities focus on us, then future work will naturally be easier to carry out, and I won't have to work so hard.
I also want to stabilize my job here as soon as possible so that I can get out of it.
Of course I want to go back to the place where I lived before. Even though I still can’t remember anything now, I have to go back.
