Chapter 145: Building a New House
After the twelfth day of the New Year, at this time, the people who came to greet each other to pay New Year's greetings have cooled down, and the village is a lot colder, and those who go out to work outside have basically gone out, and this New Year is almost over.
Song Shan's first concern was the engineering problem of entry and exit.
The tunnel of Panshi Mountain has already started on the tenth day of the first month.
At the same time, construction is also underway on the prefectural road.
Song Shan asked Feng Jianjin to ask, but the people of Yongshi Sanjian gave a deadline, if the funds are sufficient, it will take up to two months, and the tunnel H County Road will be completed at the same time.
This made Song Shan more happy.
The tunnel is opened, which is equivalent to opening up the road in and out of Fengsheng Village, at least every time you enter and exit, you have to go over the mountains and mountains, and it does not destroy the mountains and rivers of Fengsheng Village, where is the rock mountain.
Feng Jianjin personally stared at this matter, but it was much safer, and in the next time, Song Shan became a little idle.
The main thing is that he understands how to employ people.
Feng Jianjin was personally responsible for the road construction project, he handed over the vegetable garden to Song Jiming, and the strawberry garden he handed over to Feng Jingpei, both of whom are cadres of the village committee and the management of Fengsheng Agriculture, and for the cause in the village, people outside must be a lot more concerned.
Even if they are not capable, they are still capable of doing it with their own side.
On the fourteenth day of the Lunar New Year, Song Shan, Feng Jianjin and Song Jiming went to Mingshan Village at the location of Panshi Pass.
Mingshan Village and Fengsheng Village are separated by a rocky mountain.
But it's a genius.
Fengsheng Village is like a paradise, it is difficult to get in and out, and people who have a little ability want to move out, so the population of the village is not large, and the land is sparsely populated.
Kemingshan Village is a key village in Mingyue Town.
The focus of Mingshan Village is on the large number of people.
The whole village combined, nearly 2,000 people, is several times more than Fengsheng Village, there are many people, the land is thin, although the location is not as remote as Fengsheng Village, but it is not an ideal location.
Therefore, most of the young and middle-aged people in their villages are not allowed to work, and there are very few who stay at home to cultivate the land.
"I plan to contract land here and grow vegetables after the beginning of spring!"
Feng Jianjin said straight to the point to the old village chief of Mingshan Village.
"Growing vegetables in our Mingshan Village?"
The old village chief's eyes were shining.
"Old village chief, our two village chiefs have been friends for many years, this is not a lie, now planting vegetables is a bit effective in the market, so we plan to expand planting, the land in Mingshan Village is not barren, it should be good to plant, but this land rent, you have to calculate the cheaper!"
Feng Jianjin came forward to negotiate, while Song Shan began to inspect the environment.
Choosing Mingshan Village as the next base for planting vegetables is something he has been thinking about for a long time, Mingshan Village is very close to Fengsheng, and after opening the road, it is only a matter of a few minutes to come out of it.
And some of the land in Mingshan Village is still good, in the direction of the Yanshui River in the south, the soil of those lands is good, not as good as Fengsheng Village, but it is also much better than many northwest loess.
"Secretary Feng, how much are you going to plant?" The old village chief gathered a number of people from Mingshan Village to discuss with Feng Jianjin, and a middle-aged man asked cautiously.
His name is Li Ming, and he is the village party secretary of Mingshan Village.
He's the number one.
But Mingshan Village is generally the old village chief's decision, and it seems that most of these places in mountain villages are clan children, so basically the older generation has the final say.
"Look at the situation!"
Feng Jianjin said: "Our current land is useful, and it is helpless to contract the land outside to plant, but if the land is barren or the land rent is too expensive, we are not very happy!"
"There is a piece of land in the south of the village, which is relatively good in our village, and not many people have planted it in the past two years, if you can, you can go and see it first, and then talk about it!"
The group headed towards the south of the village.
Soon arrived at the destination, this village is all blocks, there is a boundary of loess piled up in the middle, but this piece of land, about 500 acres, and to look at the soil, perhaps because of the Yanshui River, the water is relatively sufficient, so the soil is more fertile.
"Secretary, that's it, rent, contracting rights, you come to talk to them, and then you go back to the village to discuss!"
"Okay!"
"Old village chief, I'll go have a cup of tea!" Song Shan said with a smile as he helped the old village chief of Mingshan Village.
"Okay!"
The old village chief also watched the excitement, and now the affairs in the village are handed over to the young people.
"Xiao Song, you have made a prosperous career, and you can't forget our Mingshan, this time you want to rent land, I support it, but if you hire someone to work, do you also consider the people of our Mingshan Village!"
The old village chief was a thief, and he pulled Song Shan and said it was endless.
"Of course!" Song Shan said with a smile: "We also have to consider the cost, so most of the employment is based on the principle of proximity, but let's say it first, people will definitely be recruited, but how much can be recruited, I don't guarantee it!"
"Don't worry, the old man won't embarrass you!"
The old village chief sighed and said: "Our village is too poor, and now those young people are not willing to stay, because if they stay, they rely on this little land, and their daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law can't marry, and their children can't support them, so they can only wait for death in the end!"
"Old village chief, rest assured, the days to come will be fine!"
Song Shan said comfortingly.
Twenty years later, after 40 years of reform and opening up, not only in coastal areas, but also in poor mountain villages in the northwest, they have begun to live a well-off life.
At that time, maybe the atmosphere of the New Year is not as strong as it is now, the flavor of the New Year will become very light, and even the countryside can be full of a wind of comparison, and the village is full of cars parked at the end of the village, but it is precisely because of this that the days that have been explained are improving.
But now, the countryside is backward.
Especially the rural areas of the Northwest.
Fengsheng is poor, but the poor are more special, the poor are very poor, but there are also some families who are still rich, such as Fengjianzhou, the richest man in the village before, I am afraid that ten villages will not be unable to produce one household.
After the Lantern Festival, this year, even if it has passed, everything has begun to be normal.
The Song family's construction of a new kiln was also put on the agenda.
This is something that has been decided during the Chinese New Year, Song Jifang and Song Jiang agreed, and there was no accident, so Li Hanmin was invited to discuss.
"How are you going to build it?"
Li Hanmin has successively contracted the Song Family Ancestral Hall, as well as the work of the Fengsheng Agricultural Office Building, in this Fengsheng Village, it is considered to be a lot of money, so this year has also passed with a smile, and I am very happy.
Now that he heard that the Song Shan family was going to build a new kiln, he was naturally very enthusiastic, who was the God of Wealth, he knew.
"Don't demolish the old kiln!"
Song Shan said: "It was built next to it, and there are more than 300 square meters of vacant land next to it, all of which are our family's homesteads!"
"What about the requirements?"
"Chinese-style courtyard houses, Western villa style!"
Song Shan thought for a while and said, "But add some of our northwest folk kiln characteristics!"
"The request is very special!" Li Hanmin thought for a while: "Give me a few days, and I'll let people drive out the drawings!"
"No problem!"
Song Shan said: "This matter is not urgent, but I want Seiko, it must be the best!"
