Chapter 257: Sin 17
In the early spring, everything recovered, the earth warmed up, an autumn and a winter passed, and many people should go out to work, but in Suyun Village, a water town in the south of the Yangtze River, it was a gloomy fog.
Originally, it was a relatively wealthy village, but after countless outflows, there were no more people in the village, and the transportation was not convenient, and life seemed to be unfulfilling.
The village in the wilderness is no longer cared for.
Villages close to the city became townships, turned into new districts, and then demolished.
This strange location of the village, which does not rely on anywhere, has just sunk, and now there are only a dozen old people in the village, and the rest of the people have either moved away or the old people of the whole family have died, and there are few families left.
Unlike other villages, there is no possibility of demolition here, it is completely a pit.
After the Chinese New Year, everyone has returned, and Zhang Wenzuo seems to be the most hesitant in the crowd, he is already in his thirties. There is no house of one's own in the city, and there is no daughter-in-law in the old family, according to the current situation, it is estimated that ten years later, twenty years later, it will be the same, the speed of making money will never be as fast as the rise in housing prices, and even the down payment will not be enough.
What kind of financial leverage, there is no such thing as any financial leverage, and he is only left with distress now.
Poor, the ancestors have been rich for eight lifetimes, and they have been unlucky in the last few decades, and there is no bullshit in their generation.
Sitting at the head of the village was a group of young people in their thirties.
They don't wear any good clothes, they usually work on various construction sites, and the salary is not small, but after going to eat and live, if you want to buy a house, you can dream, everyone saves 350,000 yuan a year, if it was ten years ago, then there is no problem at all to buy a suite.
But now it's. In this mountain village you can buy houses, land.
You can do anything, but you just can't afford to rebuild, there are homesteads, but no one comes back, the cost of transportation is already skyrocketing, not to mention other costs, there are no new houses here, and there is no place for them to settle down.
The village chief of the village passed by the village in a gloomy manner, he looked at the dozen or so remaining young men in the village at the head of the village, and finally gritted his teeth.
"Go out desperately, go out to make money, don't come back. The old village chief stood in front of them and said meaningfully.
He was already tired and bent over, and his body was also rickety.
No longer has the vigor of his youth, he still watched the legend of other people's entrepreneurship, and wanted to make the village a rich village.
But there was one thing he didn't expect, the location was so important.
The richest man on Hong Kong Island once said, what is the most important thing about a house?
Lot, lot, lot.
The location of their village is too bad, far away from the city, the land is barren, and there is no value in building roads, not to mention the development of their village now, even life is a problem, self-sufficiency is enough, if you want to make money, you can dream.
They have been in poor villages for more than ten years, and there is still no change.
Whoever comes is a headache, after all, there is nothing, and now there are no people.
There are only so many old men and old ladies left, what else can they do.
A group of slightly younger men sat here, frowning.
They also know that if they continue to stay in the village, let alone marry a daughter-in-law or something, it is a problem to live.
"If you want me to say, let's go, go out and fight hard, fight hard, let's have a big one. They gritted their teeth and looked at each other.
Everyone was a little scared.
Zhang Wenzuo's words just now startled them.
They thought of the traditions of the village, a tradition that had been used for hundreds of years and then lost for decades.
Head.
In their inheritance, when the pot can't be opened, when it comes to the last bitterness, when it comes to the last time you have to struggle.
When it comes to starving to death if they don't work hard, their village has always run this boss mechanism.
In the end, when it was really unbearable, all the middle-aged men in the village took all the money from the family and went to the village to draw lots.
Ten years of hard work, ten years of selfless dedication, as long as a leader.
The person who is elected and then cast lots to become the leader is not allowed to marry, not to marry a wife, not to have children, and must put all his energy into making money in these ten years, and putting all his energy on finding a way for everyone, until the end of the ten years or everyone is already rich in the middle.
Only then can they marry and have children.
And at the beginning of the struggle, everyone was not allowed to take a penny, and the head was responsible for the food and control. Be desperate when you work, and be loyal when you do business.
At this time, everyone in the village is alone, and everyone is trying to make money for the first person.
When he opened up the situation, made money, and had social connections and status, he had to give back to every villager and help them buy their own businesses, whether in the upstream or downstream industries, and everyone must be qualified to marry a wife, have children, and buy a house, so as to complete the basic goals of the society at that time.
Then, everyone forms a business whole and fights hard.
This is the last and last resort, and the whole village can't survive to do this, because they don't know if the elected leader will be able to resist it for ten years.
But now.
If you can't bear it, you have to resist, a group of old men are going to fight for a lifetime, and they are going to cut off their children and grandchildren, and there is no one in the village, they are now inferior to wild dogs, and that person will also turn into a hungry wolf.
After all, from ancient times to the present, they walked out of the village with red eyes, and generally did not have much capital, which must be like jackals.
In the oldest, they even went down the mountain and went out of the village with only one day's dry food and a knife.
The knife bought with all the assets of the whole family is a knife that licks blood.
The poor are crazy.
By this time, a group of people had already gathered in a circle, and there was such a lottery holder in the middle of them.
"Do you all agree to choose the leader? If you don't agree, quit quickly, it's not a joke, we'll all be in our forties in ten years, and we're not young people anymore. "They're also in a lot of pain.
This kind of thing is done by young people, and the old men in their thirties are forced to work hard, and there has been no such situation in their village since ancient times.
"Our Hao family brothers have done it, and if we continue like this, we will really have nothing. Our family is still without children and grandchildren, anyway, we don't want to take care of it, we just hope to find a daughter-in-law in a few years. The two sturdy men said.
They usually move bricks on the construction site, and the decoration company takes over the work. I usually have a lot of income, and I can leave a lot of money left over when I go to rent, food and housing, but I want to buy a house?
Wishful thinking.
Others who do not run for election also take a step back, those who think they are incapable also take a step back, and those who have three or more people who have voted no to run for election also take a step back.
In the end, there were only two people standing in the center of the crowd.
One of them is Zhang Wenzuo, and the other is Zheng Liang.
Among the two of them, Zhang Wenzuo went out to do business and failed, which can be regarded as a success, and Zheng Liang is now mixed with the construction site, which can be regarded as half a head.
