XXXIV. Patience and persuasion

Qiu Ge told his family after dinner that he was going to build a nursing home, and everyone felt that his idea was unrealistic and a joke.

"How can you do this? The old man and the old lady are not good at waiting, not to mention that there are many things, even eating and drinking every day, that is enough for people to be busy, can you do it?"

"I don't have to be directly involved in taking care of the elderly, I'm starting a place where I want to recruit caregivers, service workers to take care of the elderly. Qiu Ge explained.

"This mess at home is not enough for you to be busy, why are you making trouble for yourself? The elderly are not in good health, what will you do if something happens to you?" The eldest brother also objected.

"I will not leave behind the affairs of the family; and the nursing center should be formally managed, what can happen? Even if the elderly are sick or die, we must have a formal recording process, and every elderly person must have a special person in charge, and resolutely do not let accidents happen; I will find professional management personnel, and now there are many private pension institutions; haven't you also been to Sister Wei's home for the elderly? There is a good job. ”

"Qiu Ge, after all, the nursing home is a place to wait for people, not to mention that the elderly have a lot of things, even their children will pick and choose, and they will not be able to live. Sister-in-law said.

"As I said, there are professional management personnel, and they can receive the elderly and their families, which is no more troublesome than running a wine shop or homestay. ”

"Then where do you go to find the elderly to come to you for the elderly? The countryside is all for the elderly with their own children, who will come to you? Besides, isn't it better to go to a nursing home in the city than to go to your place?" said the eldest brother again.

"Now the young and middle-aged people in the village have gone out to work, and those who stay are the elderly, and this trend will become more serious gradually; and many of the elderly do not want to leave home to go to the city, so it should not be a problem for us to recruit the elderly; not to mention that there are many children who are not qualified to take the elderly to work with them; if the elderly are placed in the nursing center, they can work with peace of mind." ”

"Then how do you collect fees? The elderly in rural areas do have pensions, but they are still relatively low, and they may not be enough to spend in pension institutions, so what should we do about this difference?" asked Lu Di.

"We don't necessarily have to take money......

"If you don't take money, that's even worse, how can we have so much money to support other people's old people? You still want to starve to death?" said my mother angrily.

"Hehehe, it's not that you don't collect money, I mean you don't charge cash; my idea is that the elderly can bring their own land to move in; the land is handed over to us to operate, we profit from the land, and then return it to the elderly center as a fund; of course, if there are also people who are willing to take money directly, it is better, we make a good budget, see how to charge, need a few acres of land for the elderly." ”

"This is a big risk, what if the land is extinct?" Lu Di asked again.

"There are risks in any line of work, we give insurance to the land, so that even if we are out of production, we can still get pension funds. ”

"That's not good, the old people come from all over the world, they are willing to take out the land, but we can't manage it; there is a piece in the east village and a piece in the west village, and there are eight or nine acres fifty miles away, and there is no way to sow seeds. "Big brother asked the question again.

"We can divide the elderly who come to live with land into two categories, the first type can be operated, the other is unmanageable, of course, the output of which can be operated will be more, so there is less area; ”

"What about illness and other questions?" Lu Di asked again.

"The cost of illness needs to be taken care of by the elderly, because everyone's situation is different, so we can't afford this aspect. ”

"But there are a lot of old people who can't afford medical expenses, such as an old man who lives alone, he just has a few acres of land, which can be used for the elderly, but after he really gets seriously ill, he has no savings and no other income, so what should I do?"

"I also think about this, the elderly have medical insurance, which can be reimbursed partly, we are getting a fund, saving some money from the proceeds, and raising some donations from the society to protect the treatment of the sick elderly. ”

"I don't understand, why do you have to do such a troublesome thing?"

"Big brother, we were born and raised here, this is our hometown, and we will always remember it in our hearts; now our father has dementia, but he still doesn't want to leave here, this is the homeland that is hard to leave, we can't leave here, we have to choose what to do for this place, make it better and more beautiful.

We have the ability to take care of our parents, but many people do not have the ability, so many elderly people have to leave even if they are reluctant, their hearts are painful, but they choose to endure for the sake of their children, they are not happy all day long, they need help.

On the other hand, there are those old people who are left behind, they are unable to leave their hometowns, but they are not taken care of, they can only choose to live a difficult life, some even suffer from hunger due to physical reasons, and even endure pain when they are sick;

Now, as long as we can set up an organization and use formal and reasonable methods, we can help these old people, so that they can rely on and support their old age, not drag down their children and grandchildren, and still have good food, good housing, good mood, and good health; what we do is to set up a place, organize a group of people, and worry about the normal operation of the day; this can not only help the elderly, but also their children benefit. ”

"I know that this is a good thing to accumulate virtue and do good, but if this kind of thing is not done well, it will also ruin you. ”

"Hehe, in fact, many things are very risky, and the same is true for the elderly, and if you don't handle it well, you have to take responsibility, but because of such strict requirements, we will always remind ourselves to operate reasonably and legally, and not to make mistakes. ”

"Looks like you're determined to do it, so we won't have to say any more. Lu Di said, looking unhappy.

"It's not iron-hearted, but I have this desire, I'll try to do it for a while, if I can, then I'll do it, if not, I'll fund the old people we recruited to be sent to Sister Wei's retirement home." ”

"Isn't that just losing money?" said the sister-in-law.

"This is also normal, doing other businesses may also lose money, so we will not recruit too many elderly people in the early stage; and we will expand the scope after we have experience; in fact, this is also an industry, Sister Wei's sisters are not all relying on the pension business to develop?"

"Do you have the start-up capital? Tell you that there is still a gap in the construction of B&B and winery here. Lu Di said.

"I don't care about it here, you can fill the funding gap or find a way; I only invest 200,000 yuan in the pension center, mainly to renovate the site and add necessary supplies, and some elderly people should be able to pay for it. ”

"Yo, does this mean that you have found a place to handle the elderly care center?"

"Yes, it's in the village primary school, where there are abandoned houses, and it can be renovated all at once. ”

"You're really good enough to toss, I don't care, whatever you want. The eldest brother got up angrily and left.

"Qiu Ge, I can tell you, if you lose money if you do something else, you won't do it, okay, but you can't just make money in this nursing home, and you can't cheat people, throw the old man down halfway, and I'll be over with you. Mom said.

"Mom, won't I say it, recruit less people first, no, I'm responsible for sending them to a nursing home. Qiu Ge reiterated.

"Then you can toss, since you come back, our house will be lively; I am not against the excitement, but I am resolutely against cheating people and harming people. Mom said righteously.

"Mom, Qiu Ge is not the kind of person who harms people, doesn't your own son understand?" Lu Di said while holding his mother's arm.

"That's right, if Qiu Ge is a bad person, can my dad be so attached to him? My sister-in-law also said.

"Okay, then I won't stop it, I don't understand this, as long as it's a good deed, I support it. Mom got up and was going back to the old house, and she stretched out her hand to pull the sitting father.

The sister-in-law also hurried to help her father, and then the three of them passed, and now there were only Qiu Ge and Lu Di left.

"What do you want me to say?" Lu Di asked when he noticed Qiu Ge staring at him.

"Of course I need your encouragement and help, but if you object, I won't do it. Qiu Ge was really serious about this, he cared about Lu Di's opinion very much.

"What do I mean by objecting? Aren't they all thinking about you?"

"So you're backing me? great, with your support, I'm even more motivated. ”

"Yo, you attach so much importance to me, why do I feel like you have changed at this stage?" Lu Di really felt that Qiu Ge's attitude towards him had changed.

"Lu Di, since we have established a relationship, then of course I have to treat you well, you are the person I recognize, the person I will walk with all the way in the future, and you will share the ups and downs with me......"

"Giggle......, alright, alright, don't say it, why do I feel awkward?"

"Why is it awkward? I didn't say it well?"

"It's good, but you better get out of the way, old man, what's the instigation? It's disgusting to me, and I get goosebumps. ”

"Oh, you stinky woman, you dislike me now?" Qiu Ge came over and grabbed Lu Di's hand and asked.

"Hee-hee, I just think it's more real than the old you, but I'll try to accept different types of you, and you have to adapt to the ever-changing me. Lu Di said and took the initiative to throw herself into the strange embrace.

With the permission of his family and lover, Qiu Ge became more confident, but he was still very sensible, reminding himself not to blindly seek scale, but to accumulate experience in a small way, and then gradually expand, so he decided to limit the number of elderly people recruited in the early stage to a few dozen.

The next morning, he and his father went to Xingguang Village to find Zheng Shaowu, mainly to see the recruitment situation. They arrived at the village committee first, but Zheng Shaowu was not here, so Qiu Ge drove directly to Zheng Shaowu's house.

He parked the car outside the yard and walked into the yard with his father, shouting twice, 'Is there anyone?', but no one answered, and Qiu Ge was about to leave with his father, when suddenly the door opened, and a woman ran past them crying.

Qiu Ge's face was black, what is the situation? I won't bump into something I shouldn't see, right?
