Chapter 512: What Longshou Village Sees

Fortunately, it was summer, and it was dark slowly, and it didn't get dark until more than seven o'clock, and the star team hurried to finally arrive at Longshou Village before dark.

Ao Wencai, the village head, and Wang Fang, an employee sent by Rock Pharmaceutical, greeted them at the entrance of the village and helped carry some luggage.

Don't look at Wang Fang's name is very feminine, but he is actually a strong man with a height of 1.8 meters.

The young male employees who were sent to visit the various mountain villages were all such young male employees, and the female employees were not safe and could not bear this hardship.

Because there is no electricity in the village, there is not even a street lamp, so as soon as it gets dark, you can only turn on the flashlight and move forward.

Ao Wencai was holding a very old-fashioned dry battery flashlight in his hand, this kind of flashlight Li Yan had only seen when he was a child, and his grandmother's family also had one.

When passing by the doors of some farmers' homes, Li Yan saw candles lit in front of some doors, the candlelight swaying left and right under the evening breeze, and the sound of dogs barking was heard not far away.

There are also some villagers standing at the door to watch the excitement, some people have stayed in the village all year round and have not gone out, it is the first time to see so many strangers, and the children are even more curious.

Ao Wencai, the village head, smiled plainly and said: "There are few outsiders in our village, so you can see and laugh, but no one in the village has malicious intentions, please don't worry about this." ”

Li Yan knew that the villagers lit candles at the door to help them light the way, which shows that the villagers of Longshou Village are still very kind-hearted.

In such a poor village, you don't have to think about hotels and hostels, Ao Wencai helped arrange a few more decent homestays, and more than 20 people can barely live in them.

After walking for most of the day, and it was summer, everyone was sweating hot, and the actresses were in a hurry to find a place to take a bath.

Wang Fang was more thoughtful and prepared a bathroom and hot water in advance.

"Everyone overcomes, this is not a big city, there are no water heaters and other household appliances, hot water is burned by firewood, try to save a little use. Gu Tong said to everyone.

Before coming, the company had vaccinated the celebrities and assistants, and they knew that the conditions in Longshou Village were poor, so they were psychologically prepared, except for whispering a few complaints, but they didn't complain too much.

After taking a shower, the problem came again, there was no hair dryer, and my hair couldn't dry for a short time!

Men are nothing, actresses are about to cry, they take more care of their hair on weekdays, for fear of dry and split ends, natural air drying who knows if it will cause damage to the hair.

Short hair is better, long hair has to wait a long time to dry, and it is uncomfortable to get wet for a long time.

The solutions were all thought up by people, Li Yan found an open place to raise a fire, and let everyone sit around, chatting and chatting, and before he knew it, his hair was dry.

Ao Wencai took some small snacks produced by the farmer, fried peanuts with dried sweet potatoes and other things, and there was no commissary in the village, and the children usually relied on these to satisfy their hunger.

Some actresses were worried that the food was unhygienic and didn't dare to put it in their mouths, which made Ao Wencai a little embarrassed.

Li Yan took the lead in eating a piece of dried sweet potato, nodded and said: "It's very sweet and chewy, everyone can taste it, this is an authentic farmer's dried sweet potato, without any food additives, much cleaner than the packaged goods bought in the city." ”

As soon as he opened his mouth, Guo Yanqiu and others also tried it, and the taste was really good.

Seeing that they were eating with relish, the other actresses tried it, and their eyes lit up one by one.

Don't look at these dried sweet potatoes that look crumpled, they are much more delicious than those delicately packaged dried sweet potatoes, and they are all natural and pollution-free.

In this mountain, even if you want to buy food additives, there is nowhere to buy, and the production method of dried sweet potatoes is to continue the ancient style.

Some of the children couldn't sleep, and they lay on the window and looked at the strangers, their eyes full of innocence.

Compared with the delicate children in the city, Li Yan prefers these children in the mountains, who are not polluted by the foul atmosphere of the outside world.

Shen Yunyun noticed the children and gave them the snacks she had brought with her.

The children were very shy, looking at the different kinds of snacks, and they were too embarrassed to reach out to pick them up, until Ao Wen spoke, and they stretched out their little hands and timidly said thank you.

In the early morning of the next day, Li Yan had a hasty breakfast, the food was very simple, a bowl of porridge and a salted egg, although it was not rich, but it was very delicious.

Li Yan approached Wang Fang and asked him about the progress of the negotiations with the village, but Wang Fang was quite nerve-wracking, because the roads were impassable, and many projects could not be carried out.

Not to mention anything else, it is very troublesome to use electricity alone, many equipment needs electricity, even if there is no electricity, even if there is equipment, it is useless, and it is no different from scrap metal.

Li Yan touched his chin and thought for a long time, so it seems that a batch of generators is urgently needed now to meet the power supply demand first, and only with electricity can the plan be carried out step by step.

He immediately contacted the project leader of the rock pharmaceutical industry and sent someone to purchase a batch of generators, which had to be transported to Longshou Village as soon as possible, regardless of whether they were carried on their shoulders or dragged by donkey carts.

As long as there is an adequate supply of electricity, the road can be built, and all problems will be solved.

"Li Dong, if you don't say something that shouldn't be said, wouldn't it be too wasteful to invest so much for a village?" Wang Fang hesitated for a moment and said: "If the invested money is distributed to the villagers, it is completely possible for them to relocate to the town." ”

Li Yan glanced at him in surprise, smiled and said, "Yes, you know how to think about things in a different direction, but have you thought about it, are the people in the village willing to leave the place where their ancestors have lived for generations?"

Wang Fang shook his head, he also came from the countryside, and knew that the feelings of the older generation for their hometown were difficult to give up, and it may not be that money could be measured.

Many young people work hard in the city to make a career, and want to bring the old people in the city to live, except for a few who can live in the big city, most of the old people still choose the dilapidated house in their hometown.

"Actually, you are wrong about one thing, our investment in Longshou Village has benefited more than just this one village. ”

Li Yan took out the map and drew a large circle centered on Longshou Village, including the four nearby villages.

"As long as the road in Longshou Village is completed, its effect can radiate to several surrounding villages, and as long as the people in those villages are not stupid, they will use this road as the main road and pave small roads to connect it. ”

After listening to Li Yan, Wang Fang suddenly realized and nodded, it seems that he is helping one village, but in fact, it will benefit the other four surrounding villages, so this road is not a waste.

While the two of them were having a heated discussion, the celebrity group was wandering around the village, curious about many things.

The city has the scenery of the city, the countryside has the characteristics of the countryside, especially the villages that maintain the traditional style, and there are many things that cannot be seen in the big cities.

When they first arrived in Longshou Village, the stars became playful, and invited two villagers who speak fluent Mandarin as guides to walk around the whole village.

In other places, the appearance of more than a dozen celebrities together will definitely attract a large number of onlookers, but in the village where the news is closed, there is not even a TV to be found, and the villagers don't know what celebrities are, and only treat them as ordinary people.

This saves a lot of trouble and allows the stars to enjoy the tour.

Received the warm hospitality of the villagers, Gu Tong and the others were not unsophisticated, and after discussion, they pooled a sum of cash and gave each of the elderly and children in the village a red envelope.

Although Longshou Village is remote, the mobile phone signal can still be covered, which is not very strong, and it is no problem to use it for Weibo.

The celebrities played and played, did not forget the business, took pictures of what they saw and heard, wrote them down, and posted them on their respective social platforms.

On the one hand, you can brush up on praise and accumulate popularity, and on the other hand, you can also help to do publicity, so that more people can pay attention to these poor mountain villages.

The staff of Rock Pharmaceuticals were very efficient, and a batch of generator parts was delivered on the third day.

The weight of the whole machine is too heavy, which is not conducive to transportation, so it can only be disassembled into parts and assembled in the village.

In addition to diesel generators, there are also wind turbines and solar generators, and the three are used in tandem.

The easiest thing to get started with is the solar generator, which can be easily assembled and used by looking at the manual, and the electricity generated cannot be supplied to large electrical appliances, but the light fan is not stressful.

It will take some time to install the generator equipment, Li Yan asked Gu Tong to take care of the team, and he and Wang Fang went down the mountain to buy a batch of small electrical appliances for daily use.

Although it is quite cool in the mountains in the hot summer, it is not easy to sleep peacefully at night without a fan.

A simple power grid was laid in the village, and every household could use electric lights, and the entire Longshou Village was boiling, which was even more lively than the New Year.

Ao Wencai pulled Li Yan to thank him, and the villagers spontaneously slaughtered chickens and ducks, and gave the best ingredients at home to the star group.

After the diesel generator was assembled, Li Yan asked Ao Wencai to come forward and invite the cadres of the other four villages to the village to "discuss major matters".

The so-called major event is nothing more than building bridges and paving roads, making modifications on the basis of the original mountain roads, and planning the most convenient road to benefit as many villages as possible.

Ao Wencai has been the village chief for decades, and he dreams of building the road, but he wants money and no money, and no one wants him, and building the road is always just a dream, and now he finally has the opportunity to realize it, and he is more diligent than anyone else.

Relying on the manpower of one village to build roads, I don't know if it can be repaired in the Year of the Monkey, plus the other four villages are very different, there are machines and labor, and the efficiency is far from being as simple as adding four together.

Under the persuasion of Xiaozhi with emotion and reason, the four surrounding villages agreed to organize people to help repair the road, and the only condition was that after the main road was completed, the roads in the other four villages should also be repaired.

Such a big project as road construction cannot be completed in one or two days, Li Yan asked Wang Fang to supervise the work, and he went to the next village with the star group.

Before leaving Longshou Village, Li Yan donated a batch of extracurricular reading materials suitable for primary school students, which will be used after the school is completed.

Ao Wencai led a large number of villagers to send them out of the village, all the way to the halfway up the mountain, if it weren't for Li Yan's persuasion, it is estimated that they would have to be sent to the bottom of the mountain before they would be willing to go back.

The villagers thanked the star group for their help, and sent all kinds of mountain goods, sweet potatoes, dried bacon, etc., and brought more things when they came.
