Chapter 15 The Lack of Spirit
When he arrived at the village chief's house, the old man was still sitting in the yard smoking dry cigarettes, and when he saw Yang Yi coming over, he said hello to him and asked him to sit, and beckoned the old woman at home to pour Yang Yi a cup of tea.
Yang Yi handed over a ten-pound big sea bass taken out of the Dragon Ball space on the road to the village chief's grandmother, and then sat on a stool and took a sip of water.
"How is it today?" asked the old village chief, taking a puff of his cigarette pouch.
"Well, it's all sent, and now this seafood can be delivered a lot more conveniently, and it also opens a new way for fishermen!"
"That's what I said, but our village is old, small, always hear people say on the Internet, what treasure can sell fish, but no one knows, dry stare and anxious can't help, you are a college student, and you have seen the world in the capital, and you have time to teach you when you go back. ”
Yang Yi responded, and proposed to contract Lao Longkeng, and discussed the matter of fish farming with the old village chief.
"The old dragon pit is good, I heard the old people say, it was originally a seawater lake, the name is Pearl Lake, and Pearl Bay is connected, and the current Pearl Lake is a pair of brothers. I don't know why one year suddenly dried, some people said that there was an evil dragon under the pit, was locked underneath, the water was sucked away by the old dragon, and then no matter how heavy the rain, the old dragon pit was not filled again, every time it was quickly dried, and then a Taoist priest saw it and let him build a temple there, and burned a pillar of incense during the New Year's Festival, and gradually it was called the old dragon pit. ”
The old village chief groaned for a while, and told the origin of the old dragon pit, which was a bit like a mythical story, but Yang Yi still chuckled in his heart, if the old dragon pit could not hold water, it would be basically impossible for him to breed.
"So, it's not suitable for you to raise fish in Laolongkeng, you can't store water there, it's better to wrap up Pearl Lake!" the old village chief continued.
"But Pearl Lake belongs to everyone in our village, will everyone agree if they have no place to fish after I charter it?" Yang Hao asked about his concern.
"How can there be a few people fishing, even if they catch fish now, they can't send it out, the nearest is Zhuwei Village, where the dealers are now very low and can't make money at all, if you contract it, it is estimated that no one will object!"
"Then I'll contract Pearl Lake, I don't know how much it will cost a year?"
"I can't figure this out, Pearl Lake has 300 acres of water surface, and there are four small islands in the middle, it turns out that according to the contracted mountains and forests, one mu is 200 yuan a year, you also give it according to this number, it is 60,000 yuan a year, if it is not enough, give a part first, and then give it a little bit, it will be regarded as that installment!"
The old village chief lit another bag of cigarettes, summed it up and said to Yang Yi, and then worried that Yang Yi had no money, so he deliberately let him pay in installments.
"It doesn't matter, I still have 60,000 yuan, I plan to rent it for ten years, I can pay two years' rent first, and the rest will be paid when I have money, and when my fish pond is opened, some people in the village may need to go over to work, and you will have to coordinate it when the time comes." ”
"This is a good thing, there are not many others in our village, but there are many idlers, you have to raise fish, these people have been dealing with fish all their lives, and they will definitely be able to raise them for you, what is that...... Pulling jobs, that's the word, right?"
"What you keep saying is that I didn't expect you to pay attention to current affairs. ”
"Alas, what's the use, you look at Zhuwei Village, all of them are glamorous, the old goods I knew were all dog-like people every day, and they opened and closed their mouths to create a characteristic tourism industry cluster. Because I have no ability in our village, I let my parents and fellow villagers suffer, and I can't get out of this mountain nest, and we are a poor village, and now the young people are gone, and only we old people can't walk!"
"Grandpa the village chief, don't say that, our village is much better than their resources, but the transportation is inconvenient, if the road is built, you see that the development of our village is much better than theirs, the road we go step by step, one day everyone will live a good life!"
"I don't have any hope, the rest has to rely on you, Yang Yi, if it is possible to pull the villagers, your grandfather and your father used all their strength back then, but the times are different, and now you young people have to rely on you. Don't say anything, I'll call the village cadres to come over for a meeting, and I'll sign the contract today, and don't delay your business!"
After the old village chief finished speaking, he took out the old man's machine and made a few phone calls to call people to his house, the old village chief Wu Qingtian is the secretary and director of the shoulder, and the rest is Zhang Laogen, the deputy branch secretary and accountant, Wu Suzhen, the women's director, Li Dashan, the director of public security, and Wu Geng, the cashier and secretary of the Youth League branch.
Wu Qingtian, the old village head, and Zhang Laogen, the deputy secretary, are both in their 70s this year, the women's director is also in her 50s, the director of public security Li Dashan is in her 40s, and Wu You, the secretary of the Youth League Committee and the cashier, is also the principal of the village primary school, and the youngest is also in his 40s.
There are six villager groups in the village, four are held by village cadres, and the other two are also surnamed Zhang and Li, and after waiting for about half an hour, the village cadres and the villager group leaders arrived one after another, a total of seven people, the old village chief said Yang Yi about contracting Pearl Lake, and then said the price again, and asked everyone's opinions.
For the village and the villagers, no matter who contracts, it is actually the same, and someone is good to contract, so naturally unanimously agreed, and after signing the contract in front of everyone, Yang Yi used his mobile phone to transfer 120,000 yuan to the account of the village committee for two years, leaving about 80,000 yuan as start-up capital, and the contract was officially effective.
"Now let's talk about how to use this money?
After the contract was signed, Yang Yi was left behind by the old village chief, and then the old village chief threw out another topic for everyone to discuss.
With the more than 100,000 foundations that Yang Yi just turned over, everyone was very excited. Some said that it was divided directly, so that a household could divide a few hundred yuan. Some said that they should save money in the bank as a reserve, some said that they should repair the school, some said that they should build a cannery, and some said that they should invest it to make money.
Everyone discussed for a long time, saying everything, and finally did not form a consensus, the old village chief did not express his opinion, but turned his head to look at Yang Yi and asked him to say it too.
"You are all elders, normally I am not qualified to express any opinions, but the village chief grandfather asked me to say, I will say a few words, if there is something wrong, everyone will bear with me!"
"Huzi, you just boldly say, your grandfather is a big official, you have seen the world again, you must have more ideas than us, just rest assured to say it, it's a pity that your grandfather has not been involved in the affairs of the village since he came back, otherwise it would be good for him to show us the way!"
"That's it, just say it!"
"It's okay to say something wrong, just say it!"
"It's ......"
A bunch of people were giving Yang Yi a reassuring pill, Yang Yi was not in a hurry, but first took a cigarette and scattered it, and lit one himself, this is his habit, every time he wants to do something serious, he smokes a cigarette first.
"Elders, I don't know why you think our backing village can't develop?"
Yang Yi didn't say anything, but first threw a question, and everyone was a little confused at this time, not knowing what kind of routine he was.
"Our village is very rich in resources, look at the Zhushan Mountain that we are backed by, most of the miles are owned by our village, the scenery is beautiful, there are countless resources in it, it can be said that the mountains are full of treasures, fruits are lychee, longan, monk fruit, mango, dragon fruit, tangerine, pomelo, banana and sugarcane; medicinal materials have Ganoderma lucidum, Poria cocos, Morinda officinalis, mountain ginseng, wild chrysanthemum, Tripterygium vine, etc.; in addition to these, there are bamboo shoots, wild vegetables, tea, honey, etc., animals also have rabbits, pheasants, wild sheep, monkeys, kingfishers, orioles, turtle doves, Bamboo rats and some waterfowl also inhabit and breed here, which can be said to be one of the most resource-rich villages in southern Xinjiang and even in China. ”
After a pause, he continued: "Speaking of aquatic products, we rely on Pearl Lake and Pearl Bay, whether it is seawater or fresh water resources, there are too many species in them to count, anyway, I can't count them." Our village has a history of hundreds of years, pure fishing village style, many customs, culture and architecture are rare things in the city, but we have no tourists here all the year round, I went to Zhuwei Village today, and now the tourist off-season is surging, we are only ten miles apart. ”
"God has given us enough, now I feel that we lack everything, lack of money, lack of people, lack of projects, lack of industry, lack of transportation, I think these can be solved, what we lack most now is consciousness and spirit!"
