Chapter 54: New Year's Greetings
The participants in the New Year's picking group are basically a family of three, there are also a few pairs of young people, the total number is not much, only one bus came, Zheng Hongcheng came with the group at the strong request of Tian Chuan.
This time, the itinerary was adjusted, and due to the late departure time from the capital, Tagawa compressed the visit and only retained the introduction of pollution-free agriculture, picking and specialty procurement. To celebrate the New Year, Tagawa is in charge of providing a free lunch.
Lunch is still in a rustic restaurant, with ingredients provided by Tagawa and processed by the second sister-in-law's family. The dishes are very rich, basically made according to the standards of Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, but the grade of the ingredients is reduced. With this free lunch, it is estimated that Tian Chuan will not make money today, he is losing money and making money, just to increase his popularity.
With the advent of the Spring Festival, the price of ordinary vegetables and strawberries in the market has increased a lot, and the original picking price is only less than twice as high as that in the market. At that time, he was worried that people would not be able to accept it, but when he picked it, he found that the price did not seem to have much impact, and everyone was in high spirits of picking, and the amount of picking was much larger than before the Spring Festival. It is estimated that in order to make up for the lack of vegetables in the market, or to give them away, everyone picked a lot.
In the end, it was found that the total number of picks was more than the previous two cars, and it seems that the purchasing power of high-end customers during the Spring Festival should not be underestimated.
Tian Chuan wanted to stay at home for a few days, but Zheng Boss was afraid of causing trouble to Tian Chuan, so he said that he had made an appointment with other classmates who stayed in school for the New Year, and resolutely went back with the car. Tian Chuan settled the commission for these two groups for him, a total of more than 700 yuan, and brought him a large bag of food. He knew that Zheng Hongcheng would definitely be reluctant to eat well, so he brought him a large jar of fried chili peppers, as well as steamed sausages and bacon, as well as a lot of vacuum-packed meat, as well as some cucumber lettuce and fruits.
After sending off the picking group, Tian Chuan began to enter the New Year mode and relaxed.
Xu Jingyi called him to ask him about going to pay New Year's greetings tomorrow, and Tian Chuan agreed to come down and prepared to officially go to Xu's house as a quasi-son-in-law to pay New Year's greetings.
According to local customs, the son-in-law has to visit the woman's own parents one by one during the Spring Festival, and accept the banquets of each family separately, and often have to stay at the woman's house for two days to complete the task. Xu Jingyi has three uncles to visit, Tian Chuan and Xu Jingyi discussed it, and decided to complete all the visit work tomorrow morning, have a meal at her house at noon, and take Xu Jingyi back in the afternoon to get to know her family.
Tian Chuan went to Xu's house with gifts. Because I had to drink at noon, I asked Li Erbao, the driver of the chicken farm, to help me drive. Li Erbao is Tian Chuan's elementary school classmate, he worked after graduating from junior high school, and at the age of eighteen, he learned to run a car book and wanted to run transportation. Erbao's mother felt that it was too dangerous and refused to let him go, and was finally recruited by Tian Chuan to the chicken farm. There is a truck in Tagawa's chicken farm, and he does all the work in the chicken farm, greenhouse, and fishing tackle shop, and he does some chores in his spare time, and he also runs some things related to the outside world, just like half a field leader.
When Tian Chuan arrived at the door of Xu's house, the Xu family all came out. Under the introduction of Xu's father Xu Wenli, Tian Chuan greeted the elders present one by one. Entering the house and putting down the gifts, Tian Chuan accompanied Xu Jingyi's parents and grandmother to chat for a while, and Xu's mother Zhao Jinfeng went to the kitchen to cook. Under the leadership of Xu's father, Tian Chuan went to pay New Year's greetings to Xu Jingyi's parents.
Walking down in a circle, when I returned to Xu Jingyi's house, it was close to noon, Xu's mother's lunch had been prepared, and the elders of the family also came to Xu's house at the invitation of Xu's father.
After entering the table, Tagawa, as the prospective son-in-law who came to the door for the first time, of course, had to behave well and toast everyone one by one. As a human being in two lives, Tagawa has a wealth of experience and knowledge, and he strives to maintain a good atmosphere during the banquet, and with a considerable amount of alcohol, the guests and hosts are happy and happy to disperse during the meal.
During the banquet, the second uncle Xu Wenhe asked about the school Tian Chuan attended, and seemed to be quite dissatisfied with the answer of "National Agricultural University". Tian Chuan heard Xu Jingyi mention that her second uncle seemed to be very disdainful of the pomp and circumstance of driving all kinds of famous cars and giving all kinds of expensive gifts, saying that he was showing off, and then he just wanted to speak, so he heard Xu Jingyi say next to him: "Tian Chuan is the champion of the college entrance examination in our class, the fourth place in the school, and he applied for the Agricultural University because of his ideals, and his grades are no problem with Huaqing and Beijing University." ”
When the elders of the Xu family present heard this, they all asked curiously about Tian Chuan. Xu Jingyi introduced Tian Chuan's achievements in the past six months, which caused a burst of amazement. Also, becoming a billionaire in half a year is definitely a legend.
Tian Chuan took Xu Jingyi home in the evening. When I got home, my parents and my sister's family were there, and as soon as they met, the Tian family was very satisfied with Xu Jingyi, and the beautiful and generous Xu Jingyi won everyone's favor at once.
After Tian Chuan introduced everyone one by one, he took Xu Jingyi to the second floor to choose a room, and Xu Jingyi chose a room near Tian Chuan. She didn't expect the Tagawa family's house to be built so well, and each room had a separate bathroom. While looking at the house, Xu Jingyi pushed away Tian Chuan, who came over and begged for a hug: "Go, it smells of wine." ”
In the evening, Tian Chuan originally booked to go to the village chief Wang Dayong to talk about the museum, but considering that Xu Jingyi and her family were not familiar with each other, he didn't want to leave her alone at home, so he called Wang Dayong and wanted to push back the time. Wang Dayong said: "Since my younger brother and sister are here, I, who was an uncle, will meet in the past, and come to you to talk, and I will call Tian Long as well." "Tian Long is Tian Chuan's elder brother, but the blood relationship is relatively distant, and he is a secretary in the village.
Tian Chuan invited the two of them to come to the house for dinner, and Wang Dayong happily agreed.
After dinner, Tian Chuan let Wang Dayong and Tian Long to the study, invited his father over, and talked about the rural museum. Tian Chuan made a museum in his old house, and the people in the village had more or less heard about it, Wang Dayong and Tian Long also went to see it, and put forward suggestions for improvement. Tian Long's mouth was fast, and he first said: "Xiaochuan, this museum is good, but if you want to maintain it, I'm afraid you will have to put in a lot of money every year, let alone make money." Even if I sell tickets in the future, I am afraid that there will not be much income for a year. Wang Dayong also agreed: "Yes, I also have the same opinion. Now you are building this museum out of affection for your hometown, but if you want to do it as a business, you have to consider the balance of revenue. Otherwise, if you put money into it every year, you will definitely not be able to do it for a long time. ”
Tagawa understood the feelings of the two, and he expressed his thoughts directly to the two: "I don't need you to say that I dare to be clear, the museum industry itself is a money-making industry. Even well-known museums with advanced management at home and abroad are rarely profitable. The original purpose of this rural museum was to reflect the agricultural production methods in the past and the changes in the production methods in the new society, so as to preserve a historical memory for myself and future generations.
"Since before the Spring Festival, I have organized a picking tour group from Beijing to visit this small museum many times, and everyone's response is still good, which strengthens my determination to expand this museum and run it well. Personally, I think that if this museum is successfully run, it is likely to become a business card of our village and will play a great role in promoting the development of the village. The popularity it attracts has the potential to drive the development of the village's tourism economy, and it can also increase the village's voice at the leadership level, thereby bringing policy development advantages to the village. ”
"Now this museum is so small that a lot of things can't be displayed. Due to local restrictions, it is basically impossible to expand even if you want to. That's why I want to find you two leaders and think of a way together. On the other hand, I usually go to school in the capital, and my parents have to run a chicken farm and a greenhouse at home, so they can't spare the time and energy to run this museum, so I want to leave it to the village. ”
Tian Chuan stretched out his hand to stop Wang Dayong, who was about to interject, and said, "Third Uncle listened to me, my specific thoughts are like this. I will still be responsible for the initial construction of the museum, including the decoration cost of the exhibition hall, the cost of collecting exhibits, the development plan, the setting of the theme of the exhibition, the writing of the commentary, and the application for museum qualification. But from the very beginning, I wanted to hand over the ownership of this museum to the village, and in the future, the village would also be responsible for its day-to-day operations. The village needed to provide a large enough site for the construction of the museum's warehouse and pavilions. ”
Tian Long asked: "Xiao Chuan, you may have to spend a lot of money to build this museum, and give it to the village for free, what is the picture? Also, if this museum is really handed over to the village in the future, where will we get the annual operating expenses?"
Tian Chuan said: "As I just said, first of all, I want to build such a museum in the village, which can record the history of the development of the countryside, and as you can see, I have already started to do it in my own home." As for the reason for handing it over to the village, it is mainly because I don't have the energy to manage it, and at the same time, I hope that it will become a business card of our village in the hands of your village cadres and promote the economic development of the whole village. ”
He took a sip of water from his cup, pulled it and said, "As for the operating expenses, I want to think of ways from the following aspects. First, I will donate some money to the museum every year, and it is best to mobilize the people in the village to donate some as well, so as to enhance everyone's sense of ownership of the museum and the village, which can more or less solve some problems. Second, after the completion of the exhibition hall, as a collective-owned exhibition hall, it should be able to get some allocation from the state finance, which requires the joint efforts of the village and me. Third, in the future, the economic development of the village will be up, and the village will be able to support it, right? The last point is that in our operation, we will try to increase its fame and influence, and then appropriately open some special exhibitions, attract more passenger flow, and ticket sales can also bring some income. ”
After listening to Tian Chuan's words, Wang Dayong and Tian Long couldn't help but be moved, and Wang Dayong asked: "Xiaochuan, what do you want the village to do? Do you have any ideas about the location of the museum?"
Tian Chuan said: "The house of the former brigade headquarters is now run by Li Zhenguang in a shoe factory, and the operation is also very bad, is it possible to take back the brigade headquarters and give it to the museum? As for what the village is going to do in the early stage, I have not yet thought about it, I think it is better to take me as the main person in the early stage, and the village only needs to come forward to do some work and give full support to the village when handling the relationship with the villagers and the town." In addition, I need to prepare some things and run some formalities, and I may not start full-scale construction until April or May. ”
Tian Long said: "If you want to reclaim the house of Li Zhenguang's shoe factory, there may be some trouble. After all, the contract was signed, and there were still more than two years left before the lease expired. However, his shoe factory has been making money for the past two years, and now he has not even paid last year's rent. If we coordinate, it is still possible to take it back, and the repossession of the house is for the village to use, not to sublet others, so it is easier to deal with. ”
Wang Dayong said beside him: "What's not to coordinate, we can't even pay the rent, and it is reasonable and legal for us to take back the house." His broken shoe factory is not a big deal that makes money every day, and we can't be regarded as cutting off people's money if we take back the house, he doesn't pay the house, and he doesn't want to mix in the village?"
Tian Dad never had a stubble next to him, and then said: "It would be best if we could take back the house in a good way, we did this for the development of the village, and it would be bad to offend people for this." Dayong, since you have become the head of the village, you are an official, and you still have to pay attention to restraining your temper. Let's put the righteousness for the development of the village in front and create momentum in the village, if he Li Zhenguang refuses to hand over the house, we can use this righteousness to suppress him. They all live in the same village, so it's best not to hurt everyone's face. Regarding Tian's father's statement, everyone nodded yes.
