Chapter 54: Joy and Sorrow

Long Yemin's unexpected appearance made everyone more confident in the prospect of renting a shop here. Long Shaoyun came to Li Liang's table and sat down next to Li Liang's seat. Li Liang peeked at Chenchen, and the little girl's face was a little depressed.

"Hey, Li Liang, I said we'd meet again!" Long Shaoyun said to Li Liang, and as she said she introduced herself to the teenagers and girls at the same table, "Li Liang saved me on the passenger shuttle bus some time ago, and today my father and I came to thank you on purpose, you are all Li Liang's family and friends, and you will be my friends of Long Shaoyun in the future!"

Everyone saw Long Shaoyun, who was beautifully dressed and handsome, and they all felt a little embarrassed, the key is that her father's background is a bit big, and the teenagers here have basically never been in contact with such a person, no one took the initiative to talk, and the table was a little embarrassed for a while.

Li Liang saw that everyone didn't speak, so he said, "Miss Long, how did you find out that we opened here today?"

"It's Senior Sister!" Long Shaoyun corrected, "A few days ago, your second uncle invited my uncle-in-law to dinner, and I asked my brother-in-law to ask, don't you know everything!"

Well, it turned out to be the second uncle, last time Li Liang gave the second uncle Li Shuangyang a proposal to contract the planting of camellia trees in the back mountain, it seems that the second uncle is already operating this matter, and handing over the township secretary to do things can get twice the result with half the effort.

With Long Yemin's intervention, in the next few days, Zhang Qingxiang and Li Shuangzhu successfully obtained 20 acres of land use certificates and real estate certificates for 21 shops, and also helped more than 10 businesses to handle the business licenses of self-employed businesses.

After the opening of these shops, because it belongs to the intersection of two national highways, and it is the only way for several surrounding towns to and from the county, and several surrounding counties to and from the city, it soon gathered a lively market. Many surrounding villagers no longer go to the polders in the township to catch the market, but choose to be closer here.

Chen Shuangcheng's non-staple food store, Song Liangren's auto repair shop are doing very good business, and Zhang Lan's soy products shop also makes steamed buns, steamed buns, soy milk fritters and other breakfast in the morning, and business is not bad.

Among them, the best business is the Wangkelai Restaurant, which has expanded its business area, which has not only become a designated hotel for drivers, but also undertakes some official entertainment from the cement factory. Originally, the cement factory had its own small guest house, but the people who came here to negotiate business were not too satisfied with the food in the small guest house. For a while, Chen Chunhua was happy to reconcile the accounts every night, and the profitability of the store was really beyond her imagination.

At the end of August, she not only settled the cost of building materials purchased on credit before, but also used the surplus profits to distribute dividends with Li Liang's family, and the first dividend was 200 yuan for each family. Although the first dividend is not much, it indicates that the restaurant has finally entered the stage of continuous profit, and the next monthly dividend will only be more.

The thriving business status of these shops envies many people who hesitated before and did not rent a store. According to Zhang Meng's private understanding, someone has already sold the transfer price to 100 yuan, which exceeds the annual rent of each store, and in this way, no business is willing to sublease it.

For the Chen family, there is no happiest brother Chen Huahan and Chen Huatang.

The eldest Chen Huahan followed his mother Gu Yuemei to learn a good bamboo weaving craft, he worked in the village during the day, and at night he weaved bamboo products at home, including bamboo mats, bamboo baskets, bamboo chairs, bamboo baskets, bamboo benches, bamboo wardrobes, bamboo sofas, bamboo dustpans, etc., the shop was run by his wife Lu Xiulan. Gu Yuemei is not idle, she is busy with housework at home every day, and she will also find time to weave bamboo products and store them in her daughter-in-law's store for consignment.

Zhang Lan, the daughter-in-law of the second Chen Huatang, learned a good tofu craft when she was at her mother's house, and she now makes tofu brain, steamed buns, soy milk fritters and other breakfast business in the store every morning, and after breakfast, she makes tofu, dried tofu, tofu skin, bean curd and other soy products in the tofu workshop.

Now she is almost too busy by herself, and even proposed to her eldest sister Chen Chunhua to see if she can let her eldest daughter Chen Run come out from Wangke to help her run together.

Chen Chunhua agreed, but Chen Run didn't want to come to his mother's shop to help. First, it is because there are many people working in Wangke, and the salary given by the aunt is also high, and the work is not particularly tiring, and there are more things to learn. And the aunt Chen Chunhua also plans to open a Wangkelai branch in the county, and she also wants to go to the city to work when the time comes. The second is that she feels that her mother's small shop is more like a husband-and-wife shop, and she can let her father Chen Huatang come to help, but the big deal is not to earn work in the village, anyway, the family earns a lot of money now, and she can go to the supply and marketing cooperatives to buy food when she eats rice.

A few families are happy and a few are sad, and most of the people who do business here are happy, and they are happy to bloom every night. But the village cadres of several surrounding villages were worried, especially Chen Dongbao, the secretary of Huanggang Village. Recently, his son Chen Shuangcheng has made a lot of money, but his hair has turned a little gray with worry. At present, in Huanggang Village, Chen Shuangcheng's two sons, the two daughters-in-law of the Chen family, Hu Pingcheng's family, and other businessmen, there are already more than 10 strong laborers who do not work in the village. Although it is now the agricultural slack season, so many strong laborers do not work, and the opinions of other families in the village are not small, after all, this involves the big matter of grain distribution.

As we have already mentioned, some lazy people do not work hard, and at the end of the year, when the savings are not enough, the village will still give them basic rations in the spirit of humanitarianism, and will not watch them starve to death. But now these strong laborers are taking the initiative not to work, and it will be impossible to say that if they are given basic rations at the end of the year.

While the villagers were discussing, Chen Dongbao convened village leaders, accountants, militia captains, women's directors, security directors and other village cadres to discuss, and the village committee finally made up its mind to divide the fields into households in advance. In this way, the families who have people who take care of the crops by hand will concentrate on farming, and after paying the public grain, it will all belong to themselves, and these people in the village who are busy with business, whether you plant or not, as long as you can pay the public grain, then no one has any reason to look for your stubble.

Soon, under the big camphor tree at the head of the village, the cadres of the village committee divided the land in the village into 369 and so on, and then calculated the area due to each family according to the number of people, and then the representatives of each family drew lots. Huanggang Village has a lot of land and a large population, and there are only more than 2 acres of land per capita. The Chen family counted from the two old man Chen, including the children, a total of 12 people, and a total of 26 acres of land. The old man Chen and his family are old and their health is not suitable for farming, so the two of them divided their old couple's land equally among the two sons' families, and in this way, Chen Huahan and Chen Huatang brothers each got 13 acres.
