Yunxi Village was destined to be unquiet this night.

After speaking, the process ended, Zhang Yunqi did not stay long, left the noisy small hall, judging from the current situation, he needed to sum things up to the people in the village privately, and the women who were gossiping and gossiping saw that they were not lively, and they also left with their children in twos and threes, and those who stayed were all young and strong men who wanted to grab money in the village, and they quarreled in the small hall about the cooperation method proposed by Zhang Yunqi until the middle of the night.

The crux of the controversy is money.

According to Zhang Yunqi's method, the peasant households who joined the cooperative had to gather 120,000, and each household had to get more than 1,700. This amount of money is by no means a small amount that everyone can afford, even the workers in the city cannot save such a large sum of money in a year without eating or drinking, let alone these mud-legged men who manipulate the crops!

It's just too embarrassing.

Although Zhang Yunqi said it very clearly and reasonably, joining voluntarily and never forcing it, he can go to work and earn wages even if he does not enter the cooperative. These crop men are not scheming, Zhang Yunqi is out of the village, but after all, his current identity is a businessman, representing the interests of the shareholders and workers of the entire cannery, it is not easy to do this, but it's not easy to do it together, they are unwilling to do it together, they are not willing to open this account, the underwriting contract is real, Zhang Yunqi has already stated that each farmer will receive at least 3,000 catties of peanuts and soybeans this year, with the current market price of peanuts and soybeans, as long as they follow the work, they can get the capital back in one year, if the efficiency is higher, and even have a surplus, within three years, the village will be a big hoard, every household has to go on fire to become a 10,000 yuan household!

How many of these poor farmers are willing to miss such a good way to make money?

Of course, individual families with spare money naturally don't have to worry about this matter, and when the project is launched, it is good to directly invest in the shares, like the new village director Zhang Haijun, the number one solid family in Yunxi Village. However, after all, this is a few dozen people, and most of the farmers in the village have just gotten rid of the bitterness of not having enough to eat, and they can't save a few spare money all year round.

For a moment, the small auditorium fell silent.

Zhang Guorui, the village secretary, and Zhang Haijun, the village director, did not say anything more, when Zhang Yunqi first proposed to build this professional cooperative, his enthusiasm has disappeared, they know that the current situation is not easy to understand, if a few people lack this money, they can still find a way to make up for it, but most of the people in the whole village can't afford this money, what can they do?

Zhang Haijun watched several men smoking vigorously next to him, as if they were thinking about their own way out, and in the silence, there was a gurgling sound in the crescent river in the distance, he sighed, threw away the cigarette butt, got up and left the small hall.

The small hall in the village is not far from Zhang Haijun's house, hundreds of steps away, when Zhang Haijun walked to the door of the house with a tired face, he saw Zhang Yunqi and Ji Ling and his daughter Zhang Xiaomei soaking hot feet in the hall, his mother-in-law brought a cup of strong tea and handed it over, he waved his hand, and said to Zhang Yunqi: "Yunqi, if there is nothing wrong after washing your feet, Uncle wants to talk to you." ”

Ji Ling and Zhang Xiaomei both looked at Zhang Yunqi, and they noticed that Zhang Haijun's face was not quite right.

Zhang Yun started his head and said.

He took a footcloth to wipe his feet clean, stepped on slippers and Zhang Haijun came to the courtyard, Zhang Haijun squatted on the threshold of the small courtyard, Zhang Yunqi took out a hibiscus king and lit it for him, and asked, "Uncle, what are you looking for me?"

Zhang Haijun took a half cigarette before he said with a sad face: "Yunqi, Uncle wants to talk to you about some things at tonight's meeting, and I don't know if I should talk about it." ”

Zhang Yunqi expected that this was also the case: "Uncle, you can say it." ”

Zhang Haijun snuffed out the butt of his cigarette and said: "Then I'll say it bluntly, Yunqi, what you said at the meeting tonight is indeed reasonable, if I treat you as an outsider, as a big boss who purely came to Yunxi Village to invest and do business, then I can't point out anything wrong, but you are not, your big boss is from Yunxi Village no matter what, and his roots are in Yunxi Village! There are some short-sighted fools in the village who don't see anyone else's good, but you can't beat everyone to death with a stick. ”

Zhang Haijun's tone became a little excited: "Uncle is anxious, what he says is not good, don't be weird." You are such a smart doll, and the difficulties of the people in the village must be seen through at a glance, but in any case, they really want to follow you to do a great job. How many years have passed, and these farmers in our village can't afford to get up early in the morning and eat enough to eat, and they are really fed up with suffering! Before the household contract system came down in '78, do you know how poor the people in our village were? They couldn't afford to eat salt! Many people swept Guanyin soil under the wall of the toilet and transferred it into wild vegetables to eat! Now that there is finally a person with great ability in the village, and there is such a good idea of a cooperative, who would not be willing to work with him?

Speaking of this, Zhang Haijun sighed: "Uncle doesn't want to be difficult for you, since the founding of New China, your father and I have been old neighbors to the door, you are what I grew up watching, if there is any problem in the village, I will definitely protect you on the table, but now since I am talking about this in private, I hope you will talk more about your feelings, since you have this heart to help these hardships in the village, you can't give up halfway." Even if Uncle pulls down this old face and begs you, can you come up with a compromise idea to solve this matter?"

Zhang Yunqi was touched by the middle-aged man in front of him with an excited tone, and after a while, he said: "Uncle, don't think about it too much, I will solve this matter." So, do you know the mayor of Longwan Town?"

Zhang Haijun was stunned for a moment, then stood up and said, "Could it be that you really want to expand the cooperative to the entire Longwan Town?

Zhang Yunqi said: "No matter how I say it, I am also a person from Yunxi Village, and I will definitely put the interests of the village first. As for the 120,000 yuan for the establishment of cooperatives, if the people in the village want to do it together, they must come out, they can't afford it, they can't afford it, I will find a way to help them solve it, so don't worry about it, uncle, but this joint-stock cooperative is a new type of economic cooperative organization, and at the level of public opinion and policy, we all need to pull the local government in, even if the local government plays a leading role in name, it can avoid a lot of unnecessary troubles for us. ”

When Zhang Haijun heard this, he calmed down: "Yunqi, do you still want to take care of things, since you say so, then uncle believes you, I know Zou Qixian, the mayor of Longwan Town, you will go to see him tomorrow?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Haijun realized that it was inappropriate, with the current identity of the doll in front of him, nominally he came here to invest, and it was really on the table, and those big officials in the county were eager to rush to it, an official at the level of a town mayor, where did he need the doll to run to see in person, so he said: "Tomorrow, I'll find someone to contact Mayor Zou first." ”

Zhang Yun started his head and said.

The two lit another cigarette at the gate of the compound and chatted about Zhang Yunqi's father, until the barking of dogs stopped in the depths of the village, and Zhang Haijun turned back to the house. It was his former home. I don't know why, a few days ago, I sent my father back to sweep the grave, and I walked around it for a while, looking at the weeds in the yard from childhood to adulthood, and the walls were split and cracked everywhere, and I always had an indescribable feeling in my heart.

"Why are you sitting here alone in a daze?"

Zhang Yunqi turned his head sideways, looked at Ji Ling, who walked over with his hands behind his back, and said with a smile: "Breathe." ”

"My uncle said something bad to you just now, and the result of the meeting tonight is not good?" Ji Ling sat on the threshold next to Zhang Yunqi, her black and white eyes sparkling, and under the moonlight, her little face flowed with a white light.

Zhang Yunqi said: "I can't talk about it, the first time I have a meeting, it is normal for the result to be bad, seek common ground while reserving differences, and it will get better slowly." ”

Ji Ling held his delicate chin in both hands and looked up at the starry sky: "Sometimes I feel that you are very tired and care about the feelings of too many people, so it is not yourself." ”

Zhang Yunqi smiled: "How to say it, it's not tired, but to live, someone has to carry a weight forward, so that the people around you can live quietly." ”

Ji Ling tilted his head: "Who are the people around you?"

Zhang Yunqi said, "Aren't you right next to me?"

Ji Ling squinted and smiled, she suddenly reached out and grabbed Zhang Yunqi's hair in a mess: "Stupid little classmate Zhang, be happy, I don't want you to move forward with a heavy load, we all have to live quietly." ”
