Chapter 253 The key to unlocking the core of power (4100) Wait a moment
Also
Zhang Jifeng and the others left and rushed back to Yiling City.
Before leaving, Zhang Jifeng picked 10 more three-pound standard pots of strawberries and left Cao Shujie 1,050 yuan.
In Zhang Jifeng's words, these strawberries will be sent to his partner's natal family, and he will then discuss the marriage with his partner's natal family.
Xu Yunhua and the others also drove away in three cars.
When leaving, Xu Yunhua told Cao Shujie that he might have to bring people over to take wedding photos in a while, and there were a lot of people, so the fees would be as agreed upon.
Cao Shujie naturally welcomed him with both hands. In this regard, he hoped that Xu Yunhua would bring as many people as possible.
Each newlywed couple is charged 1,000 yuan for the use of the location, so 10 couples are worth 10,000 yuan. This is a really good deal.
Cao Shujie is still thinking about how to continue to work together and expand the popularity of his orchard.
However, he did not put too much thought into this aspect. He knew very well that his basic business was still planting orchards. As long as he did well in the orchards, income from other aspects would naturally continue to flow.
But if the basic base is gone, who will be interested in a bare mountain?
Are you here to take wedding photos?
Which one is light and which one is more important, Cao Shujie can clearly distinguish.
Zuo Le and Cao Shujie went to the strawberry garden to see the situation.
When Zuo Le looked over and saw a piece of red strawberry, he felt as if he had eaten a ginseng fruit from the inside out, and the 36,000 pores in his body were soothing.
In Zuo Le's eyes, these are all money!
"Boss Cao, I can take all of this away early tomorrow morning." Zuo Le emphasized.
Cao Shujie nodded: "You can just pick them. After picking this round, I will save the next round for the May Day holiday. Don't even think about it then."
"Okay, I'll arrange someone right now. Boss Cao, the price is still the same. You can help me find someone." Zuo Le said proactively.
"How many people are needed this time?"
Zuo Le thought for a while and said: "The more, the better. The temperature is high now. Pick them as soon as possible and I will transport them away as soon as possible."
Cao Shujie stretched out three fingers and said, "Boss Zuo, how about I help you find 30 people?"
"Okay, I have no problem!" Zuo Le agreed.
That’s only 1,350 yuan for 30 people.
The price he paid to sell strawberries in the magic city didn't even cost 30 kilograms.
He asked Cao Shujie: "Is it easy to find people?"
"It's a small thing." Cao Shujie agreed without even thinking about it.
He just needs to shout on the big loudspeaker later to gather 30 people. It's too easy.
After the two of them walked around the 20-acre strawberry field, Zuo Le had a good idea and started calling someone to drive over. They would start loading the truck and transport it out early tomorrow morning.
"Or potting?" Cao Shujie asked.
As soon as he finished speaking, Zuo Le shook his head and said: "No, I will use a foam box this time. I will prepare it myself."
He asked Cao Shujie: "Do you still have that little colorful label? One can be attached to each foam box."
"There must be." Cao Shujie said, "I will give it to you later."
The two of them walked towards the hut together.
When Zhang Jifeng and others left, they packed away all the things they had brought and cleaned the room.
Cao Shujie found a teapot and made tea. The two drank slowly while listening to Zuo Le talk about his experiences during this period.
Zuo Le said specifically: "I made a special trip to Xinjiang some time ago. Guess who I saw?"
"Cao Zhen!" Cao Shujie didn't even bother to guess. He felt that this kind of 'guessing' was an insult to his IQ.
Zuo Le laughed and said, "It's also a coincidence. I wanted to go there to collect some fruits, but I went there at the wrong time. None of what I wanted was fresh."
"Later I remembered that your friend, Boss Cao, was in Xinjiang, so I called him. Who knew we were not far apart, just over 200 kilometers away, so I drove directly to him and stopped by his wife.
I spent the whole day eating at a hotel." Zuo Le told Cao Shujie about the situation at that time.
After listening, Cao Shujie wondered if there was something wrong with your sense of distance.
Isn’t more than 200 kilometers too far?
From Caojiazhuang to the provincial capital, it's not that far.
But he didn't ask any more questions and listened to Zuo Le telling what happened after he met Cao Zhen.
Cao Shujie sighed in his heart, for the time being, Cao Zhen has taken root in Xinjiang.
As for when he will come back, it's hard to say.
For him and Mingbo Textile Co., Ltd., they have leased a total of 5,000 acres of land in Xinjiang to grow cotton. This is no joke!
I forgot how much time had passed. When Cao Shujie was about to call his wife and ask her to cook some vegetables, Zuo Le's cell phone rang.
After he got through, Cao Shujie listened to him saying things like, 'I'll drive over early tomorrow morning' to the person on the phone.
After Zuo Le finished the phone call, he said: "They are on their way here and will be there early tomorrow morning."
Cao Shujie nodded and said to him: "Boss Zuo, how about having dinner at my house tonight and staying at my place tonight?"
"Hey, I don't dare to trouble Boss Cao. Honghui and I can just go to town and work together for one night," Zuo Le said.
Cao Shujie disagreed. He said, "What are you doing? It's not like there is no place to rest at home. If you go to town and spend this money, it will look like I'm chasing you away."
"That's it. You can walk around in the orchard first or go to my house to drink tea. I'll go to the village committee compound first and shout a few words to find someone for you in advance." Cao Shujie said.
.
Now the village committee compound has no defense for Cao Shujie at all. He is willing to use the village committee's loudspeaker, and no one in Caojiazhuang objects. Many people even secretly hope that Cao Shujie will take office as soon as possible.
Caojiazhuang has a good geographical location, but it suffers from the lack of a good leader. Even though it has many unique conditions, its economic development has not been obvious in recent years.
Many families in the village hope to find a capable person to take charge of the family, and they are willing to obey the leader.
As of now, 99% of the people in Caojiazhuang know that the most capable person in their village is Cao Shujie, there is no second person!
But Cao Shujie doesn’t want to be the ‘village director’ now!
…
Zuo Le had not yet had a thorough understanding of the village committee compound. He was quite curious about the village committee compound. When Cao Shujie wanted to go to the village committee compound, Zuo Le followed him there no matter what.
"Let's go in."
The two came to the door of the village committee and saw that the door was open and there was someone in the office. Cao Shujie led the way and walked directly to the office.
Zuo Le was very curious. This was the most powerful place in the village. How could someone like Cao Shujie, who had no official position, be able to come and go at will?
"No one cares?" Zuo Le asked.
Cao Shujie shook his head: "I'm here to introduce them to money-making jobs. The village is eager for me to come here more often."
Although Cao Shujie said this, Zuo Le didn't believe it. He always felt that things were not as simple as Cao Shujie said.
"There must be something fishy here that he doesn't know about." Zuo Le thought in his mind.
Cao Shujie had already walked to the door of the occupied office, knocked on the door, and pushed the door open.
Cao Jianlong, the deputy secretary of the village, is drinking tea and watching TV.
Seeing Cao Shujie coming, he stood up directly and asked with a smile: "Shujie, why are you free to come here today?"
"Uncle Long, I am definitely here to cause trouble for you!" Cao Shujie said.
He introduced to Zuo Le: "Boss Zuo, this is the secretary of our Caojiazhuang, I am Uncle Long."
After the introduction, he introduced Zuo Le again.
After hearing Cao Shujie say that Zuo Le was recruiting people to work, Cao Jianlong's impression of him suddenly improved.
"You use big speakers, right? Use whatever you want!" Cao Jianlong was very happy!
Cao Shujie has skillfully turned on the switch and played a piece of music to attract the attention of the villagers first.
After everything was ready, Zuo Le heard Cao Shujie shouting into the microphone: "Young and old men in Caojiazhuang, please pay attention. I am Cao Shujie. I am currently hiring 30 people in my orchard to pick strawberries early tomorrow morning. It costs 45 yuan a day."
After Cao Shujie finished shouting, he shouted again and then turned off the loudspeaker.
"Shujie, you are going to get rich again!" Cao Jianlong said with a smile.
Cao Shujie chuckled and asked, "Uncle Long, do you have anything going on tonight? If not, go to my house for a drink."
"Really?" Cao Jianlong glanced at Zuo Le, and he understood that Cao Shujie must be entertaining Zuo Le.
Not knowing what he had in mind, Cao Jianlong said smoothly: "Then I'm really going to ask for a drink."
"What are you talking about, Uncle Long? If you want to drink, just tell me and be ready at any time." Cao Shujie said.
"How about Wuliangye tonight?"
Cao Jianlong is a man who knows the goods. When he heard Cao Shujie tell him the name of the wine, he looked at Cao Shujie up and down and said: "You really made money."
"Hey, luck!" Cao Shujie said this, but Cao Jianlong didn't believe it.
Zuo Le came very late.
After wandering around the mountain, we came down to the village committee to find out what was going on. Before we knew it, it was getting dark.
Cao Shujie and Zuo Le came out of the village committee office, and he called out to Cao Jianlong: "Uncle Long, let's go, go directly to my place."
He said: "My dad should also pass."
"Hey, why didn't you tell me earlier? We can't keep Brother Jianguo waiting for a long time." Cao Jianlong said as he packed up his things, closed the office door, took the keys and left the village committee compound together.
Cao Jianlong finally locked the iron gate of the village committee compound.
Together they walked north towards Cao Shujie's house. Cao Jianlong also said: "It will be time to re-elect village cadres soon. Shujie, if you are interested, you can prepare in advance."
"Uncle Jianlong, can we not talk about this?" Cao Shujie said.
After hearing what he said, Cao Jianlong finally said: "Gao Weimin feels that his abilities are limited and he cannot lead Caojiazhuang to make a fortune. He will not participate in the next round of election this time."
"As a result, our village party secretary and village director in Caojiazhuang are both vacant." Cao Jianlong said: "If you are willing to do it, Shujie, I will follow your arrangements even if you choose the village party secretary."
Zuo Le was surprised when he heard Cao Jianlong say this.
It takes a lot of trust in Cao Shujie's ability to support Cao Shujie so unreservedly.
He looked at this small village. Many of the houses in the village looked old.
There were many people walking back and forth on the street, or gathering together to chat. They were all dressed simply.
When some children saw them, they subconsciously ran away.
However, the village is very clean, there are no unnecessary things on the street, and there are flowers and trees planted on both sides of the road, which makes people feel comfortable just looking at it.
Some people have opened a small vegetable garden near the wall of their house, where they grow peppers, tomatoes, cucumbers, beans, eggplants and other seasonal vegetables.
Although the place is not big, there is still a lot of things to grow. In the countryside, these vegetables are enough to eat, and they basically don’t have to spend money to buy vegetables to eat.
In addition, the air here is very good, which is actually very suitable for retirement.
After Zuo Le observed it carefully, he fell in love with this small village.
But he travels around all year round. If no one lives in this kind of house for a long time, it will lack popularity and will easily break down.
The three people came to Beitou, called Guo Honghui who was waiting here at the foot of the mountain, and walked together towards Cao Shujie's house.
Arriving at Cao Shujie's house, Zuo Le saw Cao Shujie's father, Cao Jianguo, already waiting under the building at the door.
Cao Shujie's grandfather, Cao Zhenghu, was sitting on the official hat chair in the living room.
Seeing the four of them coming in, Cao Jianguo hurried over to greet them.
"Brother Jianguo, how can I let you greet me in person?" Cao Jianlong quickly walked over and shook hands with Cao Jianguo. He said, "I'm here to have a meal today."
"Oh, we're all a family, just come here, no matter how much you can eat for free." Cao Jianguo was not happy and retorted to Cao Jianlong.
Cao Zhenghu saw them chatting there and said directly: "Sit down first and then talk."
"Yes, yes, Jianlong, Boss Zuo, sit down quickly." Cao Jianguo greeted them.
Cao Shujie took out the tea leaves and prepared to make tea.
The food was cooked by Cheng Xiaolin and her mother-in-law Wang Yuelan. There were 8 dishes on a table and two soups, all delicious and delicious.
Cao Shujie went to get two more bottles of Wuliangye. Cao Jianlong swallowed his saliva after seeing it. He didn't expect that Cao Shujie actually took out Wuliangye and drank it.
In his opinion, this standard of hospitality is definitely extremely high.
The usual entertainment, even if the county leaders come over, is enough.
But Cao Shujie didn't care.
He felt that his grandfather, father and Cao Jianlong were no outsiders, and Boss Zuo was one of the few people he could talk to.
Paired with delicious food, this meal is particularly comfortable at night.
Cao Jianlong is a very measured person. He did not mention the election or the village director again that night.
He knew very well that for people like Cao Shujie, it was enough to mention it to him. If he continued to talk about it, it would be a bit offensive.
But having said that, if Cao Shujie is really willing to run for office, even Cao Jianlong would agree with it.
…
The meal ended at around 9 o'clock in the evening. When Cao Jianlong left, he threw two keys to Cao Shujie. He said: "Shujie, these are the keys to the village committee office and the door. If you need a loudspeaker,
Just go there without telling us."
Good guy, I really don’t treat Cao Shujie as an outsider. Even Cao Shujie felt a little weird when he looked at the key in his hand.
Zuo Le was a bystander, he could see what Cao Jianlong meant in his words and actions.
As for what Cao Shujie thought about, Zuo Le felt it was inconvenient for him to say more.
Today happens to be the beginning of the month and the end of the first half of the year. There are a lot of things to do and I am a little busy. Tomorrow will be even better!
