43. Ten years of starting

Syllable!

Bang Bang Bang!

The sound of showers of rain hitting the leaves woke Xia Jie from his sleep.

"On a June day, the child's face will change when he says it!"

The weather forecast is sunny today, so why is it raining?

It's not scientific!

The heavy rain made the four chickens squat obediently in the nest, no longer calling to go out to wave.

Qiuqiu also lay lazily in the cage, half-squinting, as if he was recuperating.

Dayong took a few tree roots and bamboo roots in the past two days, and went back to start pondering.

said that he would try to carve something out first, and then come over to give Xia Jie a palm.

So no one should be here today.

Then let's sleep a little longer.

It's the perfect match for a rainy day and sleeping!

But he didn't lie down much before there was a shouting outside.

"Is Xiaojie at home?"

"It's coming, it's coming. ”

Xia Jie got up and put on a piece of clothing, and ran out to take a look.

It's actually the old village chief Liu Changgen!

"Yo, old village chief, why are you here, it's a rainy day, come in, come in!"

Xia Jie hurriedly welcomed him into the house.

"Old village chief, smoke a cigarette and rest first!"

took out the lamppost and handed one over.

Although he doesn't smoke, since he came back to his hometown to engage in this farmhouse, he will inevitably treat people and things, so he still has to prepare.

Last time, I happened to make extra money faster than the outside, so I bought a spare one.

"Yo, it's Great China, good smoke!"

Liu Changgen took the cigarette and sniffed deeply under his nose, the wrinkles on his forehead stretched out with a smile.

This kid is so sensible, he doesn't have to say anything about dealing with people!

"Old village chief, is there something wrong with you coming here?"

Xia Jie asked.

"Oh, it's not a big deal, I just wanted to come and see you. ”

Liu Changgen lit a cigarette, took a deep breath, showed a hint of satisfaction on his face, and then swept his eyes left and right.

"This place hasn't been renovated, it's still the same. ”

"Well, the B&B, it's just to be simple and natural, you don't need to make too many bells and whistles, if you want to live in a high-end hotel or something, you don't have to come to us." ”

Xia Jie smiled and said.

"Well, that's true, but our village is so far away from the city, will anyone want to come and play?"

The old village chief couldn't help but raise this question like Song Xiaodong.

"Hehe, of course there is, the old village chief, you see that we have beautiful mountains and rivers here, people ......"

Xia Jie will answer Song Xiaodong's answer and say it again.

"Look, am I right?"

"Yes, yes, yes, you young people have broad ideas and new concepts, we are all old, and we can't keep up with the times, where would you think that people in this big city still have to experience our lives. ”

Liu Changgen scratched his head and said with embarrassment.

"Then you say, if you do this, can the rest of our village follow suit?"

The old village chief looked at Xia Jie with a blank look and asked with some expectation.

"Well, well, maybe, but I can't say for sure yet. ”

Xia Jie didn't dare to say anything.

I have a live broadcast to attract popularity, so I don't have to worry about no one coming, if everyone in the village flocks to school, it will backfire.

After all, if there is no sufficient consumer base and their own conditions may not be met, they all want to learn from the farmhouse, which can only be called blindness.

"Well, you're right, so let's wait and see. ”

The old village chief nodded.

He will come over today, that is, he wants to know more about the situation and see if he can find more ways to make money for the villagers left behind.

If every family's money bag can be bulging, then the children don't have to go out to work to earn money!

"By the way, the old village chief, let me ask you something first, who is in charge of the brick factory in the village now?"

Since everyone is here, it saves Xia Jie a trip and asks directly.

"The brick factory, that has long been deserted, no one is responsible!"

The old village chief shook his head and said.

In the early years, the villagers in the surrounding ten miles and eight towns were inseparable from the use of red bricks to build houses, so the brick factory was prosperous for a while.

But later, when building a house, more cement slabs, reinforced concrete, and bricks were not used much.

Besides, there is no money for any technical transformation, and what nine-hole bricks and heat-insulating bricks are studied, so they will naturally be eliminated.

"Can the kiln still be used?"

Xia Jie was only interested in that.

"It can be used, where is that thing placed, it won't rust and corrode, as long as there are materials and fuel, it can be burned. ”

"Why, you want to use it, that's no problem, this factory belongs to the village, and now it's idle, even if it's demolished, it costs money to find someone." ”

Liu Changgen said directly.

"Otherwise, old village chief, I'll rent that kiln. ”

Xia Jie thought for a while and said.

"Hey, what to rent, no one goes to the land, you have to use it directly, you helped the villagers a lot yesterday, this little thing is nothing. ”

Liu Changgen waved his hand disappreciably.

"No, no, no, the old village chief, one yard is one yard, since this brick factory belongs to the village, then I borrowed it, there must be someone to say, otherwise the name is not right." ”

Xia Jie insisted.

It's free, and it's the most trouble-prone!

"Uh...... Xiaojie, what are you going to do with the rental?"

Liu Changgen also seemed to have something in mind, and couldn't help asking.

"Hey, I thought I'd like to make some ceramics myself, so I'll have to have a kiln. ”

Xia Jie said generously.

"Oh, so you're going to use it to make pottery, so it's going to be fine!"

Liu Changgen nodded.

The young man is not simple, not only can he endure hardships, but also have craftsmanship, and Old Man Xia can be regarded as a successor!

"How many do you think is appropriate?"

Xia Jie asked.

"Anyway, it's also an idle land, you have to use it, water, electricity and fuel or something to take care of yourself, and the rent is counted as one for you a year...... 5,000 yuan, do you think it's okay?"

Liu Changgen raised one finger and turned it into five again.

"Okay, no problem, then I'll make an agreement with the village and rent it for ten years. ”

Xia Jie said very happily.

After all, if you build a new one, it will definitely be very troublesome, and there are ready-made ones to use, so why not do it?

"Old village chief, when do you think it's convenient?"

"It's convenient at any time, if you don't like it raining outside, you can go to the village committee with me later." ”

I didn't expect that the abandoned factory could still have tens of thousands of yuan in income, which was to generate income for the village, and Liu Changgen naturally couldn't ask for it.

Since everything has been said about this, where does Xia Jie still have the mind to sleep, hurry up and finalize this matter.

I will definitely have to renovate it in the future, and it can also be used as a special experience project of mountain village life in the future.

After all, in big cities, there are special modern pottery shops, and it costs hundreds of dollars to experience it.
