At the dinner table, the village chief wanted to unpack the Luzhou Laojiao he had brought, but when he smelled the aroma of old wine, he was very self-aware and did not insist. The Luzhou Laojiao he brought was good, more than 100 yuan per box, which is considered high-quality in the local area.
It's a good wine, but when compared with this old wine, there's not a world of difference, but it's still far behind.
Five kilograms of wine, driver Zhang Zhe refused to drink, Wu Xiaoyu and assistant Chu Juan each drank one glass, and the rest was divided among Director Liu, the village chief, Li Chengwen, and Li Qingyun. If it is bad wine, most men will shirk it and say that they are not good drinkers. But
When encountering really good wine, men who love wine will rush to drink it.
Why did I come late? I will punish myself with three drinks. I said the wrong thing and I will punish myself with five drinks. In Yunhuang City, Li Qingyun once met a friend who invited someone to drink on his birthday. On the phone, everyone said that he still wanted to drink.
If you have to work overtime, you can drink, but you can only drink two taels at most. No more. But when I opened the wine, I found it was Maotai. There were only two bottles in total. A table of about ten men started to rush to drink.
It was the first time Li Qingyun drank Moutai, and he was deeply impressed. The sauce flavor of Moutai is very unique, and his lover is crazy about it. He can't stand the sauce aroma and it is difficult to swallow. Compared with Moutai, Li Qingyun prefers the strong aroma of old wine that has been aged for many years.
The fragrance is so mellow and heartbreaking.
A man who usually doesn't talk much has become a talkative man after drinking. Li Chengwen, who has always been loyal and honest and doesn't talk much, complained to the elders of New Town, saying that the road from the village to the town is too narrow and difficult to walk, and the big cars can't get in.
If you don’t come, some fish farmers suffered a lot because of this stretch of road, where small trucks hauling fish to the town and large trucks backing up the fish easily killed the fish, and they also spent more on labor costs. After complaining a lot, they asked Wu again
Mayor: When will this seven to eight mile mountain road be widened?
In fact, the main reason why the village chief came to drink today was to ask about this matter. He was more anxious than others. Li Qingyun's pond is in the south, closest to Qinglong Town, and the actual distance is only six miles. And the fish he raises are in the north of the village, actually
The distance is about ten miles. Last time his son went to the town to fish, he almost fell into a ravine and died.
After the meal, we got closer, and the names became smoother: "Uncle Li, don't worry, I did some research before coming to Qinglong Town. The rural environment here is good, it should be a wealthy land of plenty, but the mountainous terrain
It is too complicated, the mountain roads are too difficult to repair, and the transportation is inconvenient, which is why Qinglong Town is poor and backward. I can tell you something first, Lijiazhai will be my first economic pilot. Only when Lijiazhai becomes rich can it drive
The enthusiasm of other villages to get rich. We have repaired this section of the mountain road."
It wasn't until around three o'clock in the afternoon that Wu Xiaoyu and his entourage said goodbye and left. Their car was parked in the south of the village, where there was a spacious threshing floor where you could park your car or turn around.
Li Qingyun's family put them in the car and kept waving. It was a shameful thing for the town officials to come to their house. Others in the village heard the news and came out to see. When the van in which Wu Xiaoyu was sitting left, everyone
More than sixty people have come out of the village.
The village chief did not forget to promote Li Qingyun, saying that the new mayor was his classmate, and the two even exchanged mobile phone numbers. Because he did not have this honor, he was extremely envious. That was a private number, not an office number.
It became even more lively now. Everyone turned to Li Qingyun's parents and kept saying complimentary words, which made Chen Xiuzhi so happy that her face turned sour with laughter. Such a shameful thing was the same as when her son was just admitted to college. It lasted for several years.
I really miss not getting any compliments from the villagers.
Li Qingyun took the opportunity to leave and walked to his own land. A few minutes further south and turned east, he found his farmland. The land in the mountains was not very regular. From time to time, there were small hillsides and small depressions.
It's a pretty good flat field. In front of it is a small pond with an area of more than two acres, ranking among the top ten among all the ponds in the village.
There is a small forest between the pond and the road, mainly walnut trees, with some peach trees, persimmon trees, and orange trees scattered around. The small forest is planted on the hillside, surrounded by rocks and small mud pits, and no one pays attention to it. Therefore, according to the village's rules
, such an attached and messy place will belong to the one whose home is closest. If there is a dispute, the village chief and respected elderly people will be asked to adjust. After the adjustment, the village will stamp it, which has legal effect.
There are many similar terrains, and this is how the village handles them. Therefore, when the land was divided from Li Qingyun's grandfather, it belonged to Li Qingyun's family. Li Qingyun also had an uncle who divided the land in the north. The cultivated land is larger than this, but the pond is larger than this.
Small.
The geology on the hillside is not good, so we don't expect these fruit trees to produce much economic benefit. They mainly prevent soil erosion along the road and boulders on the higher hillside.
The lower part of the pond is slightly turbid and the water surface is very clear. Because it is a stagnant pond, there are many aquatic plants. It is precisely because of the existence of aquatic plants that the water quality can be maintained in good condition. There is a circle of reeds and other common weeds around the pond. There are also several comparisons
Cheap Chinese medicinal herbs, no one usually picks them.
Li Qingyun's father is not good at fish farming, and he doesn't like fish farming very much, because he can't make much money, and even lost money in two years. This pond usually adopts the natural breeding method, that is, some fish fry are sprinkled into it every year.
Then they were left to fend for themselves. When people from the town came to collect fish, they would lower the nets to catch them, sell the big ones, and continue to throw the smaller ones in to raise.
The quality of the fish raised in this way is good, not much different from the wild ones. The disadvantage is that the yield is not high, fishing is troublesome, and big fish are often missed. If big fish such as catfish and snakehead fish exist, some small fry will
Too bad, it became food in the mouth of a big fish.
Li Qingyun knows that there are many farmers in the village who have the same idea as his father. They think that if there is a pond on the ground, they can just raise some fish, sell them, and eat them if they can't get rid of them. They have no idea of raising them specifically. Therefore, most of them are crucian carp and carp.
, the mixed culture method of grass carp and silver carp, just throw the fry into the pond and nothing will happen. Since there are less fry thrown in, you even save money on feed.
Li Qingyun has lived in the city for several years and knows that these fish are common fish and cannot be sold at a good price. In addition, the fishmonger deliberately lowers the price on the grounds that large trucks cannot pass, and the villagers' idea of raising fish is getting weaker and weaker.
"If you want to raise some precious fish species with extremely high prices, a pond of more than two acres is enough. This will also bring new ideas to the fish farmers in Lijiazhai. Go back to the Internet cafe in the town to check the information.
By the way, I posted an advertisement on the aquatic product forum to attract some fishmongers who are not too shady to cooperate."
He brought his laptop back, but there is no network cable in the village. Use a mobile phone to access the Internet? The Internet speed can make people anxious. What's more, his current mobile phone is an old model and has no Internet function. He even wants to get a phone line back.
, dial-up Internet access.
There are two thatched huts at the end of the field. They are used to watch the watermelons at night when they are ripe. They are not afraid of people stealing them, but mainly because they are afraid of being spoiled by wild beasts. A few years ago, when the watermelons were ripe, a group of monkeys came down from the mountains. In one night, they ate and destroyed the whole village.
One-third of the watermelons they planted were destroyed, causing heavy losses. From then on, the villagers began to pay attention to protection work and built thatched houses in the fields.
Seeing the thatched hut, Li Qingyun's heart moved. He was worried that he had no place to move the home-made wine produced by Fifth Grandpa's family. It would make sense to let them move here first, and then quietly put it into a small wine cellar.
The thatched hut was unlocked. When I pushed the door and went in, there was a damp smell inside. There was only an old wooden bed and not even a table. The space was not big and could not hold much wine. There were a few pieces of bamboo behind the thatched hut and the geology was not good.
, no crops were grown because my grandfather’s original small pharmacy was built here and was later moved to the town.
The place where crops can be grown has been planted by my parents. Potatoes are planted on corn in the distance, and watermelons are planted in the nearby section, so the thatched shed is built here.
Li Qingyun walked around and found that the place is not small. When he earns money, he plans to build a villa-like building here, with two floors and an attic, which is considered two and a half floors, and there is an empty space to build. What two bedrooms, one living room, three bedrooms and one
The living room is too weak. If you plan this open space reasonably, it will be possible to have five rooms and two living rooms after it is built, and it will be two floors. As for the attic above, it should be built higher for heat insulation and for storing debris.
Woof woof! Woof woof! The gold coins and copper coins were found somehow, and they screamed excitedly, interrupting Li Qingyun's fantasy. When the two brats saw Li Qingyun, they bit their trouser legs and stared with big watery eyes, looking like a naughty boy.
appearance.
Don't think about it, he definitely wants to ask for water from the space spring. If he doesn't give it to them, he will probably bite his trouser leg all afternoon.
Small bowls are always prepared for them in the space. Now I am very familiar with pouring water. With two splashes, the water in the two bowls is full. The two puppies instantly loosened his trouser legs, one for each bowl, and gurgled fiercely.
Drink without stopping in between.
At this time, I suddenly heard the sound of a motorcycle from far to near, and heard someone calling me: "Brother Fuwa, are you in the field? There is a package for you here!"
Li Qingyun turned around from behind the thatched house and saw that it was Mao Dan, his playmate from the same village, who had been staring at his butt since childhood. Mao Dan was a few years younger than Li Qingyun, with a delicate appearance and a medium build. He had been working as a courier at the town post office since he was a child.
After becoming a member of the Communist Party of China, her skin became darker and darker day by day. From a distance, her white teeth were the most conspicuous.
He was riding a post office motorcycle. On the back of the motorcycle was a green letter canvas bag. Now it had a small shelf and could also do EMS delivery business.
"Maodan, I'm here." Li Qingyun walked over, punched him on the shoulder, and said with a smile, "You little kid can do it. You will become an official employee of the country in a blink of an eye. You look very energetic in this outfit.
Yes!"
"I'm officially a knitting machine! Brother Fuwa, don't laugh at me! Come rain or shine, I only earn more than three hundred yuan a month, and I don't want to do it anymore. You know my family situation. If I don't find a profitable career, I won't be able to find a wife."
Difficulty." Mao Dan handed a tightly wrapped small package to Li Qingyun, and took out a ballpoint pen for him to sign.
"With your uncle and aunt taking care of it for you, you don't have to worry about getting a wife. If you are satisfied, tell your aunt and I will ask her to talk it over for you." Li Qingyun said with a smile.
"Brother Fuwa, I don't have the nerve to trouble my aunt and uncle anymore. If it weren't for your help these years, my father and I would have starved to death." Mentioning this matter, Mao Dan, a young man, had red eyes.
Mao Dan's father helped people build houses in his early years. An accident broke his legs. Before he was discharged from the hospital, the family's money was spent and he borrowed a lot of debt. Mao Dan was only two or three years old at the time, and his mother couldn't bear the blow.
, I went out to work and never came back. I relied on the villagers to provide food and clothing before I grew up. Because I was close to Li Qingyun’s family, I received the greatest kindness from Li Qingyun’s parents.
This post office job was found by Li Qingyun's fourth grandfather. After working for several years, the Maodan family finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Haha, forget about the past. Well, come to my house in a few days, and we two brothers will work together to find some ways to make a fortune in the village." Li Qingyun comforted.
Mao Dan's eyes suddenly lit up and he shouted in surprise: "What did you say? Brother Fuwa, are you not going back to the city to work?"
