Su Huanian didn't know what was going on, he didn't hear Lin Xianliang's sarcasm at all, and nodded to himself, happy for the changes in his hometown.

"Mr. Su, I heard that you are back, and your relatives are waiting for you. Liu said with a good smile.

"Okay, good ......" Su Huanian was very excited, and walked into the homes of relatives in the smiling faces of everyone.

Although these people are his distant relatives, they are all sincerely grateful to him, a few years ago he made a list for his son to come back and donate money to them one by one, and he has also sent money back every year over the years, and it is his money that has changed their lives.

The enthusiasm of the clan relatives made him very excited, but after walking to several houses one after another, his smile quickly faded.

The villagers who have become rich on the surface are still eating sweet potato rice, the only dish on the table is a little black pickles, and the buildings that look decent on the outside are still poor on the inside.

"Third aunt, isn't the money I sent back enough?" Su Huanian was a little puzzled, the old woman sitting in front of him was over seventy years old, and she was his cousin, because he had received her favor when he was a child, so he sent her 10,000 yuan at the beginning, and he had also sent money one after another over the years, and he knew that this was definitely not a small amount in the countryside.

"It's not enough, it's enough, thanks to your money, we can build this little building. The third aunt held his hand and was very grateful, "And your third uncle, who was sick the year before last, if it weren't for your money, he would have left a long time ago, and then he went to the hospital for more than a year before leaving, and he kept thinking about you when he left......"

"Then why are you still eating sweet potato rice and pickles?" Su Huanian didn't understand.

The third aunt was a little embarrassed, "I built a building, married a wife for my five sons, and gave your third uncle a doctor, I am also sick myself, this money is too unspent, and it is almost spent all at once, and the family can only go in and out, how long can it last?"

The third aunt wiped her tears, "The five sons in the family have all married wives, and the whole family has more than a dozen people, but the only one acre of land has been distributed, and there are five or six times a year. ”

Changfu County is close to the sea, not only the land is more barren than Yongle County, but also the land available for cultivation is very small, a family of five strong laborers can only be divided into one acre of land, one person can do all the work in the field, everyone else is idle at home, the consequence of being idle at home is that they can't afford to eat, and the fishing villages along the coast can also go out to sea to fish.

Su Huanian's heart was shocked, except for the small buildings, the current Qingkou Village is no different from him at the beginning, and he still has to rely on the people who went to Nanyang to send money back to feed, otherwise they will not be able to survive.

His heart was a little sad, and he couldn't say anything for a while.

Lin Xianliang didn't think there was anything, anyway, everyone in the whole village had overseas relatives, and if they didn't farm, they could live on the money sent back by outsiders, in short, they wouldn't die of hunger.

Su Huanian looked all the way, his heart became heavier and heavier, looking at the eyes of the clan relatives who had become numb because of poverty, he wanted to do something for them, but he couldn't think of what to do.

"Mr. Su, you have also seen the situation in Qingkou Village, if you don't rely on the help of overseas relatives, the life of the villagers will not be able to go on at all, but relying on others can never be a long-term solution, you will send them money with the affection of relatives, and when it comes to your descendants, you may not recognize these distant relatives who have never met and have no feelings, what will they do when the time comes? Will you continue to go to Nanyang to make a living? I'm afraid there is no opportunity for your era now. Liu looked at Su Huanian and said seriously.

Su Huanian nodded heavily, "Yes, I thought that as long as I sent more money, I could change their lives, but I was wrong, even if the building was built, it looked decent, but in fact, it was still poor and suffering." ”

"The fundamental problem of Changfu County is that there is little land, this is not a suitable place for the development of agriculture, if it can be transformed from an agricultural county to an industrial county, its poverty problem can be completely solved, in the final analysis, it is a problem of transformation and upgrading. ”

"Oh?" Su Huanian looked up at Liu Haohao suddenly, he finally knew her purpose.

"Only by building more factories in Changfu County can we get rid of poverty here," Liu looked at him sincerely and frankly, "It is better to teach people to fish than to teach them to fish, Changfu County is poor because there is no more money-making livelihood here, and it has not allowed everyone to have work and money to earn, and the money sent back by overseas Chinese can only make them rich for a while, and when the love is exhausted, they will continue to be poor." Building factories to absorb the surplus labor here not only has low labor costs and investors can make profits, but also solves the employment problem, so that those who are idle at home can play their own value. The land in our Changfu County is used for farming, and there is no way for everyone to have enough to eat, but if it is used to build a factory, it can feed many people, and our coastline is long, and we have a natural harbor, as long as it is built, it may become an international port, not to mention a factory, and even an industrial zone can be built, so that Changfu County can really become rich. ”

Su Huanian was silent for a long time before he spoke in a dumb voice, "Let me think, let me think about ......"

The three sons of the Su family quite agreed with Liu Haohao's proposal, instead of donating money to fill the bottomless pit of Changfu County, it is better to use the money to be donated to set up a factory, even if there are restrictions on other conditions, it is not as good as Liu Haohao said, cheap labor is enough for them to make money, even if they don't make much money, it is better than only giving blood transfusions to Changfu County.

"Dad, I think what Deputy County Magistrate Liu said is quite reasonable, even if we donate 100 million yuan to our hometown, we can't change the poverty here, it's better to try to set up a factory, maybe it will have an effect." ”

"Yes, Dad, let's try it, you see so many young people in the village are idle at home, build factories to absorb them, they have work to earn money to support their families, and we also have money. ”

The three sons, who have always been on the left, are surprisingly unanimous this time.

Su Huanian knew that what they said made sense, but he hesitated not because of anything else, but-

"I don't want to be poked in the back and scolded by the capitalists, I don't want to make money from the villagers. Su Huanian frowned, his business in Nanyang is very large, there is no shortage of money, if he comes here to set up a factory, then he is not a philanthropist who returns to his hometown, but a capitalist who exploits his fellow villagers, which is the last thing he wants to see.
