Chapter 27 Goal is to be well-off
"Fourth master, you take two people here to watch, let's eat dinner in the town at night, I will lead Mayor Li and them back to the village first. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info "Zhang Wolf hurriedly gave the four masters a handful of food stamps and money, and turned around to lead the way with Mayor Li and Professor Wen.
On the way, Zhang Wolf pointed to the mountain road and said to Mayor Li: "Leader, they all say that if you want to get rich and build the road first, I am going to widen this mountain road into a ten-meter-wide road, and temporarily use stones to level it first, just be able to pass the car, and then build it into a cement road when you have money next year." ā
"Oh! If you want to get rich and build roads first, you have a good saying!" Mayor Li's eyes lit up when he heard Zhang Wolf's words.
The town of Pine Collar is located at the intersection of plains and mountains, and many villages are located in the mountains.
There is a lot of wealth in the mountains, and although everyone can eat, it is also difficult to travel because of the mountain roads, which hinders economic development.
The common people have no money to see a doctor, their children have no money to go to school, and they can't afford to marry a daughter-in-law, these are all headaches for him as the mayor of the town.
Once the mountain road is opened and the things in the mountains are shipped out, it will be all money!
The more Mayor Li thought about it, the more he felt that this matter was reliable, and he decided to wait for this year to see the development of Xilongzhuang, if it was really like what Zhang Wolf said, he would take the militia to open the mountain and build roads when the farming was slack next year.
Anyway, the militia is training intensively, shooting guns is training, and opening mountains and building roads is also training.
"Your kid's brain is flexible, don't worry about what I promised, I can't forget it, and when I transport things into the mountains, I'll let them come over and help you open the mountain and build roads." Mayor Li happily patted Zhang Wolf on the shoulder.
"Thank you, leader, this mountain road is too difficult to walk, more than ten miles away, you have to walk for half a day. I'm in a hurry!" Zhang Wolf hurriedly expressed his gratitude.
Because of a delay in the town in the morning, it was already dark when everyone arrived at Xilongzhuang, and more than a dozen cauldrons under the big locust tree were bubbling with aroma.
Zhang Wolf found the third uncle who stayed behind, which added more than 200 people, and the original prepared meals were not enough to eat.
The third uncle is still experienced, and after listening to it, he immediately greeted people and re-supported the pot, and there were more than a dozen idle cauldrons in the brigade headquarters.
There are also ready-made wild boar meat, stewed with cabbage vermicelli, and you can smell the fragrance after a short while.
The steamed buns can only be eaten by the people of the militia company first, and the people in the village eat them at home, and each person is subsidized with two catties of bud rice noodles.
Mayor Li also experienced the difficulty of walking on the mountain road, and it has been almost a year since he came to Pine Collar Town, and he has not been to Xilongzhuang once.
I used to think that the other mountain villages I had been to were difficult to walk, but I didn't expect that there were even more difficult to walk.
Thinking that there were two villages farther and deeper in the mountains, Mayor Li felt that the burden on his shoulders was heavier.
"Leader, this is our old secretary's ......," Zhang Wolf introduced to Mayor Li.
"I don't need you to introduce... We know each other, we've met in previous meetings. Mayor Li stopped Zhang Wolf's words and said with a smile.
"Yes... Yes, look at my brain, I'm busy, my third uncle's house has already prepared a meal, let's go eat first!"
The third uncle's family has six strong laborers, and they are relatively wealthy, and the house is also spacious.
Therefore, Zhang Wolf handed over the task of receiving the mayor to the third uncle, and the village gave the third uncle a certain meal subsidy.
"Okay, then eat first. After walking for a long time, Mayor Li and Professor Wen were already hungry, and they were not polite when they heard the words.
"Shanzhu, you entertain the brothers of the militia company and let everyone eat well. Before leaving, Zhang Wolf gave another explanation to Dong Shanzhu, the militia captain in the village.
ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦
The meals prepared by the third aunt are very rich and affordable, cold salad wild boar ears, cold salad cabbage heart, braised lion's mane mushrooms, a pot of roe deer meat, a pot of pheasant stewed mushrooms, and a pot of tile fish.
Don't look at the five big and three coarse of the third aunt, but they are all good hands at home and outside, and the dishes they make taste really good.
Mayor Li, who was born in the army, did not pretend to be false, and sat down with Professor Wen to eat.
After everyone ate for a while, there was something in their stomachs, and the third uncle filled the wine.
"Welcome to the mayor and Professor Wen to Xilongzhuang to inspect the work! I will do it first as a respect!" The third uncle was also a bold person, picked up the black pottery bowl containing wine, said two polite words, and drank it dry in one gulp.
"Okay! Brother Dong has a good amount of wine! I'm dry of this wine!" said Mayor Li, who picked up the wine bowl and took a sip.
"Thank you Brother Dong for your hospitality, I have dried this wine too!" Professor Wen has been dealing with farmers all year round, and his temperament is also quite straightforward.
The two guests drank dry, and Zhang Wolf, as the host, couldn't lag behind, so he also dried up in one go.
Putting down the wine bowl and pouring it full of wine, Mayor Li took the initiative to pick up the wine bowl, "Brother Dong's words just now are criticizing me, I really didn't do it well, it has been so long since the pine tree collar, and it was my dereliction of duty to come to Xilongzhuang for the first time! I apologize to my brother...... I'm done!" Mayor Li said, tilting his face and drying.
"The leader is serious, how dare I criticize the leader, the leader has a lot of things, the work is busy, the road to Xilongzhuang is difficult to walk, we can understand if you don't come!"
"Professor Wen, I respect you, we are all croppers, big and coarse, and we don't know a few big characters, and this greenhouse vegetable still depends on your guidance. I'll do it, you feel free!" The third uncle over there and Mayor Li competed, and Zhang Wolf also found Professor Wen here.
"You, Director Zhang, are not coarse! Just with your idea of building greenhouse vegetables, it is amazing. I also did it, and I will rely on you Director Zhang to take care of me in Xilongzhuang in the future. ā
The black pottery bowl used in the countryside is not an antique black pottery, it is a kind of clay pottery, which is black and does not leave a loss, and a bowl can hold more than half a catty of wine.
Zhang Wolf also saw that Mayor Li and Professor Wen were also massive, otherwise they wouldn't dare to drink like this.
The person who put two pounds into two pounds estimated that these two bowls of old wine would slip away.
"Come on...... Come, let's not just drink, eat some food! The mountains are hard, there is no good food! That's all there is to it. Zhang Wolf beckoned everyone to talk about food.
"It's true that it's hard in the mountains, but it's humble to say that there is no good food. This lion's mane mushroom was put aside, but the emperor ate it. Mayor Li smiled and said a chopstick lion's mane mushroom.
"In our Northeast, there is a saying that the roe deer is beaten with a stick and scooped with fish, which shows that there is really no shortage of meat, but there is a lack of vegetables, especially in winter, this cabbage and radish are eaten until they want to vomit. ā
Professor Wen also chatted about the chopsticks of lion's mane mushroom, and then continued: "So I said that Director Zhang's idea of building vegetables in greenhouses is too good! At worst, it solves the problem of eating vegetables in winter for our Northeast people, and at worst, it makes outstanding contributions to the four modernizations!"
After two bowls of wine, the atmosphere became warmer, and everyone's words increased.
"Professor Wen, you have won the award, I am just a little ordinary person, I just want to lead these hundreds of fathers and villagers to run a well-off life as Deng Gong said. Zhang Wolf said modestly.
"Your goal is not small, the whole country is still thinking about how to solve the problem of food and clothing, and you are starting to run for a well-off...... Come, go for your well-off goal!" Mayor Li smiled and took the initiative to drink with Zhang Wolf.
