More than 40 minutes later, the car drove into the compound of the Zaozhu Township Government, where Wei Yucai, a senior party official of Zaozhu Township, Dai Chengjun, the head of the township, Hao Ziqiang, a senior party official of Yutian Township, He Ming, the mayor of the town, and a senior party official of Bishui Township, Lei Province, and Zhuang Minghe, the head of the township, were already waiting in the compound of the Zaozhu Township Government.

"Secretary Long, County Magistrate Zhang, Deputy County Magistrate Deng, and Mr. Yang, welcome to Zaozhu!" Wei Yucai and Dai Chengjun said in unison, looking as if they had rehearsed in advance.

The weather was very hot, and everyone exchanged pleasantries a little, and then drove into the machine farming road to Yuxi Village. Yuxi Village is the village where Li Liang's grandfather is located, not far from the township of Zaozhu, about a mile or more.

The machine farming road in Yuxi Village is not very wide, just enough to accommodate the width of a car, the road condition is not very good, fortunately, the current drivers generally have good driving skills, and several cars have entered the big camphor tree at the head of Yuxi Village.

There are many camphor trees in Hekang County, and many villages have retained hundreds of years of camphor wood, large camphor wood, seven or eight people's arms are connected, and they form a circle to enclose the stump. Yuxi Village is no exception, the large camphor tree at the entrance of the village is more than two meters long, with a wide canopy and shade, which is a good place to enjoy the shade in summer.

However, this is the busy season for farming, and rural people are busy in the fields. Just now, a convoy drove into the village, which has attracted the villagers' sideways glances in the fields, which is really a prosperous era that Yuxi Village has not seen for hundreds of years.

Li Liang's second uncle's family got Li Liang's information the day before yesterday and knew that Li Liang would take Mr. Yang and his party to visit the planting of kiwifruit in Houshan today. Li Liang's grandmother and aunt came to the town early in the morning and bought a lot of ingredients, which are now prepared in their own yard.

Li Chengxi and Li Shuangqi, father and son, went to the village party secretary early in the morning, and with the help of the village party secretary, they borrowed several sets of new tables and chairs from several families in the village with better conditions, and placed them under the grapefruit trees in their halls and courtyards in advance.

Li Hao became the ear of the family, and he looked out early under the big camphor tree at the entrance of the village. His task was to go home and inform his family as soon as he saw a car or a strange crowd entering the village.

So as soon as the convoy drove into the village's machine farming road, Li Hao's saw it from afar. He trotted all the way home, shouting, "Grandpa, Dad, there are a lot of cars in the village!"

Hearing Li Hao's shout, Li Shuangqi, who was struggling with the two scalded hares, put down the hare in his hand, quickly washed his hands, and said to his father Li Chengxi, who was smoking dry cigarettes: "Dad, it seems that Mr. Yang is here, let's go and greet them!"

"Okay, let's go!"

The father and son walked quickly to the entrance of the village, just in time to catch up with Mr. Yang and his party, who got off from the car one after another.

"Dad, second brother!"

"Grandpa, second uncle!"

Li Shuangyi and his nephew Li Liang saw Li Chengxi and Li Shuangqi father and son walking side by side, and hurriedly stepped forward and shouted.

Then they introduced the father and son to Mr. Yang and the leaders who came over today.

"Welcome Mr. Yang!"

"Welcome Secretary Long!"

"Welcome to County Magistrate Zhang!"

~~~~~~

After a period of greetings, Li Chengxi and Li Shuangqi, father and son, shook hands with the leaders in turn and invited everyone to sit at home.

Mr. Yang, Long Yemin, and Zhang Chenglin, accompanied by Li Chengxi and Li Shuangqing, father and son, walked at the forefront of the team.

Li Wangsheng, the village party secretary of Yuxi Village, and Li Wang, the village director, who rushed to hear the news, surrounded Wei Yucai, a senior party official of Zaozhu Township, Dai Chengjun, the head of the township, and others, and followed behind the big leaders.

Walking into the courtyard of the Li family, Li Liang's grandmother, Mrs. Qian Sanmei, and her second aunt, Meng Qingxiu, had already made tea and set up some farmhouse food on the two borrowed square tables placed under the grapefruit tree, such as fried dried sweet potatoes, kraft candy, orchid roots, and so on. These foods are very familiar to the cadres of Hekang County, and they are very unusual to guests from Hong Kong City like Mr. Yang and Zeng Jiahao.

Li Shuangzhi warmly greeted everyone to sit down, drink tea, and in accordance with the folk customs of Hekang County, prepared a bowl of wine-stuffed eggs for each visitor, and three poached eggs in each bowl, which is a grand custom used to entertain guests in the rural areas of Hekang County.

In this era of poor materials, a bowl of wine-stuffed eggs represents the enthusiasm of the host's family.

Long Yemin and other leaders of Hekang County naturally understood what the Li family meant, he took the lead and finished eating this bowl of wine-stuffed eggs with a smile.

Mr. Yang and Zeng Jiahao didn't understand, and Li Liang explained to them in a whisper next to him. Mr. Yang was moved by the enthusiasm of the Li family, and he happily finished eating this bowl of eggs with special significance in his opinion.

"Teacher Li, Erzhu, I heard that you have contracted the back mountain of the village, and now you have planted more than a dozen acres of kiwifruit, take us to have a look!" said Wei Yucai, a senior party official in Zaozhu Township.

Teacher Li refers to Li Liang's grandfather, Li Chengxi, who has been teaching at Zaozhu Township Central Primary School all his life, and people are used to calling him Teacher Li when he retires.

"Erzhuo, you take Mr. Yang and the leaders to the back mountain!" Li Chengxi said.

He is old, he can't bear to walk the mountain road, and he doesn't want to steal his son's limelight, such a highlight moment, let his two sons and good grandson Li Liang shine.

"Okay, Dad!" Li Shuangzhi said honestly, "Mr. Yang, Secretary Long, County Magistrate Zhang and all the leaders, please go to the back mountain with me!"

Under the leadership of Li Shuangzhi, everyone walked out of the courtyard of the Li family.

Li Shuangzhi said as he walked: "Leaders, I listened to the advice of my nephew Li Liang last summer, and with the help of the policy dividend of dividing the land into households, I contracted this barren mountain in the village. Before I contracted, there were some miscellaneous trees and small shrubs on the back mountain, and there were often pheasants and wild boars in it.

After I contracted the back mountain, I went around to buy Camellia oleifera saplings and kiwifruit vines from the surrounding villagers, and from the second half of last year to the first half of this year, I successively planted 30 acres of Camellia oleifera saplings and 15 acres of kiwifruit. Judging from the current situation, the growth is not bad, and the survival rate is quite high. ”

Yao Mingliang, director of the Forestry Bureau, asked a question: "Comrade Shuangzhi, do you have a good control over the quality of the Camellia oleifera seedlings and kiwifruit vines you bought? What is the oil yield of Camellia oleifera? Is the taste of kiwifruit good?"

Buying these fruit tree seedlings from private individuals, the most feared thing is to encounter such a question asked by Yao Mingming. In case of encountering a camellia tree with a low oil yield, or a fruit tree with a poor taste, the investment of several years of hard work may be wasted.

Li Shuangzhi shook his head and said, "No!"

"Ahh

Mr. Yang and the leaders were surprised at the same time, they thought that the quality of the saplings purchased by Li Shuangqi was guaranteed, but who knew that Li Shuangqi had no bottom in his heart.
