Chapter 246: Into the City
After the National Day, I haven't waited for Li Fu to come back.
The two things that Hong Yanwu personally felt were enough to prove that Hong Lucheng's vision was accurate, and what the old man expected was happening.
First of all, the most obvious is that there are a lot of cotton players in the capital unconsciously.
Most of these people are farmers from the northeast.
They spotted the market where people in Beijing needed cotton quilt covers before the cold winter, and walked in the alleys.
Sure enough, not only was there too much work to do.
When they are thirsty and tired, it is also convenient for them to go into the courtyard to find a bowl of water to drink.
So the scene of "sandalwood hammers, fir tops, golden roosters, and snowflakes floating" began to appear in the old alleys of the capital.
"Wow" ...... "da" ...... "hmm"......
In this way, the string music has become a kind of daily accompaniment that can be heard in the capital.
Secondly, Zhaoqing specially called Hong Yanwu and wanted to talk to him about the new situation around him.
This year, because of the chemical fertilizer and the pesticide that can be used enough, Longkou Village ushered in a bumper grain harvest for the first time.
Not only is it enough for itself, but it finally has two truckloads of surplus grain to sell.
Unexpectedly, what happened next was like Ye Shengtao's short story "Three or Five Buckets Overcharged".
An Sun and An Yue drove the truck and pulled the grain to the township.
However, it was found that the grain collection department had suspended grain collection because the grain depot was full.
People from various villages who came to sell grain were besieging the entrance of the township government, begging for an explanation.
The two of them were out of line, so they quickly called the village to report.
Secretary An and Zhaoqing summed up, in order not to cause trouble to the township, they simply called everyone back.
After two days, Secretary An and Zhaoqing heard that the matter of collecting grain became more and more noisy.
They simply called the township government and asked whether this batch of grain could be digested by themselves.
As a result, such a statement was not only praised by the township leaders, but also soon attracted an inquiry call from the county secretary Lin.
If you want to say that the situation is stronger than people, this phone call, Secretary Lin changed his tone.
Although he praised Longkou Village and marveled at their agricultural achievements, he no longer insisted on putting agriculture first.
Instead, he asked Longkou Village how he planned to dispose of the grain accumulated in his hands.
Whether there are practical difficulties or not, will the peasants be disappointed and dissatisfied?
Zhaoqing understood as soon as he heard this, I am afraid that it is because the whole county is facing this kind of problem, and Secretary Lin is afraid that the advanced model he personally caught will also have an accident, so he specially came to take care of it.
So in order to repay Secretary Lin for his support and help, he replied very frankly.
It is said that because the agricultural form of Longkou Village still retains the collective system and does not sell grain, no one in the villagers will have an opinion.
As for the digestion method, there is a handicraft factory in Longkou Village and there is no shortage of money, so they want to open a pot and brew their own local wine to drink.
It was also suggested that the county might as well open a distillery to solve the problem of grain collection.
Don't say it, it's a good idea.
This reminded Secretary Lin and relieved his worries.
Even if you do it well, you may have multiple income-generating projects.
On the phone, Secretary Lin burst into laughter on the spot.
Then, within two days, good things came.
With the efforts of the township government, Secretary Lin tried his best to disagree with the public.
The county finally officially approved Longkou's long-term request for instructions through the township.
Not only did it agree to "Longkou Village" to set up a tourism service company, but they were allowed to set up sales and catering service points in the "Shihuadong" scenic spot after the opening of the scenic spot.
The "Longkou Village Arts and Crafts Factory" is also designated as a designated manufacturer for the production of special tourism handicrafts for "Shihuadong".
This is probably the return of Secretary Lin and the township government to Longkou Village.
However, there is definitely no free lunch in the world, so it will also increase the size of the handicraft factory.
The county and township also have a corresponding requirement, that is, they hope that Zhaoqing can help resolve the surplus labor force in several nearby villages.
Zhaoqing couldn't push it back, so he could only agree.
As a result, I didn't expect that as soon as I came, more than 100 people were arranged.
This is also thanks to Zhaoqing's attention in advance, and at the beginning he declared that handicrafts or technical work should be trained, and young people can only be accepted.
Otherwise, men, women, and children will be brought in, and it will be even more unbearable.
But this is still enough for Zhaoqing to worry, not to mention raising so many idlers at once, not to mention increasing the financial burden.
Teaching them technology also requires manpower, which really delays production and income generation.
Later, he pondered, didn't Hong Yanwu use his name to register an ancient construction company?
So I called over, wanting to ask Hong Yanwu if there was anyone there, hoping that he could help him share some of the burden.
According to his opinion, these people are not completely groundless in architecture.
The countryside also builds tiled houses, at least it is okay to dry sand, mud, and build bricks.
What's more, many of these people also know how to work as stonemasons, and they are not a little bit involved, right?
After going around for a long time, Zhaoqing said that in the end, it turned out that there was still something to ask for.
Hong Yanwu understood this and immediately couldn't help laughing.
"Cousin, you have enough eyes. You're marrying your own daughter-in-law for a treat, but you want me to pay for your errands. However, I have to really say that you are indeed blessed, and this phone call is really better than coming sooner. ”
"I'll tell you the truth. On National Day, our old man just announced to his family that his old man was going to open a tavern. It just so happens that your village is going to open a pot, how appropriate is this. You might as well buy more food and brew more. If you can't drink it yourself, just get it and we'll sell it for you. ”
"In addition, my ancient construction company is indeed recruiting. Moreover, you can cover food and housing, and the salary is twice as high as that of state-owned units. At present, I dare not say that there are more than fifty or sixty people, and I can still bear it. The only condition is that young people who need to endure hardships and stand hard work, love to learn crafts, and preferably have the intention of settling down in the city. ”
"Also, the next project that the ancient construction company plans to start is to repair the small stone building in the backyard of our old house. And then there's your family's 'half-acre garden'. There is a lot of stone work in these two places, and it is of course a good thing that your people there have a foundation of stonemasonry, and if you want to do this, you better arrange more for me. ”
Such an answer was much beyond Zhaoqing's expectations, and of course he was overjoyed to hear it.
He didn't expect it to be such a coincidence, as if it was a heaven-made arrangement.
So he was happy, and his response was more interesting.
"That's a good idea. But Xiao Wu, you can also talk about me. Isn't this a blessing for you? Aren't you beautiful? What is this called? This makes you want to sleep, and I'll bring you a pillow. This is called calculating high is not as good as luck, let's turn one good into two good, and it's good to be a good brother. ”
Hey, that's right, isn't that a buddy?
All of a sudden, the two of them were happy on the phone.
However, to be honest, compared with the general environment, this change in the capital is still nothing.
Because across the country, more farmers who have gone out to work have made choices that are flocking to Shenzhen.
The large number of foreign-owned factories here has created a huge employment gap.
However, they have no way to recruit these registered people in the system, so they can only hire migrant workers.
As a result, Shenzhen has become a real mecca for migrant workers.
Compared with the mainland, the SAR has the following iconic features:
The people who work on the assembly lines of the factories here do not receive the traditional term "workers".
Instead, they are collectively referred to as "working boys" and "working girls".
In addition, traditional workforce values have been subverted.
Men as powerful as cattle are far less popular than women with a delicate heart.
At the same time, the high intensity and high efficiency that these women have to endure are also unprecedented.
Even if they even go to the toilet, they have to count it by seconds.
There is no doubt that it was from this time that great population movements and migrations began to arise consciously.
The city is no longer off-limits to the peasants, opening a crack in the door for them.
Our country has always practiced a dual household registration system between urban and rural areas, and has moved from a "red-light district" that resolutely excludes peasants to a "yellow-light district" that allows peasants to bring their own rations into the city.
Of course, not everyone cherishes such an opportunity and knows how to seize the opportunity of the times to change their fate.
For example, Li Fu encountered something that he couldn't laugh or cry in his hometown of Raoyang, Hebei.
After he returned to Lijia Village, he must have first told his family about the Hong family.
I hope my grandchildren can follow him to the capital.
But his own grandson, Li Zhu, who is already twenty years old, said no.
Li Fu was particularly puzzled and asked why.
Saying that you can eat well, live well, earn money, see the world, and learn things, isn't it better than staying at home and farming?
But the question was tight, and Li Zhu's face was so red that he only threw out a sentence.
"Master, by ...... Why do you want me to serve the people of the capital? We are dignified men, and we don't do anything to serve people. Besides, it's time for my dad to kiss me......"
Yes, this sentence choked Li Fu so much that he swallowed and salivaed.
However, the eighteen-year-old grandson Fang Bingsheng was quite sensible, and it didn't take long to think about it.
"Grandpa, take me there. I must be obedient, study hard, and work hard......"
