Chapter 213: Donations

According to the seniority, Chen Zhengqian should call Chen Rongliang's uncle. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

The entire village, counting three generations ago, is actually within five suits of kinship. So he called Chen Rongliang as an uncle, which was actually right.

As soon as Chen Zhengqian entered the courtyard, he saw his mother chatting with Chen Rongliang, and he was a little surprised, wondering how he could appear here.

What he didn't expect was that when Chen Rongliang saw him appear, he immediately stood up and greeted him very warmly: "Xiaoqian is back, I haven't seen you for a long time, it seems that you have grown a lot taller, and you are also handsome!"

"Hello Uncle Rongliang, are you so free today, have you eaten?" Chen Zhengqian smiled, knowing that what he said was polite words, although he had really grown taller and become more handsome.

In addition, "have you eaten" can be said to be the most common way of greeting Chinese people, which is more obvious in rural areas.

Only Chen Zhengqian didn't know what Chen Rongliang came here for today. It stands to reason that his family is not close to him, barely within the five suits, but the two families are one in the upper village and the other in the lower village, and there are not many opportunities to meet on weekdays.

As the saying goes, if you don't go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, what is it, Chen Zhengqian is strange in his heart.

"Yes, your Uncle Guiying went to work in the fields, I came to see the fish in the fish pond, and when I passed by your door, I came in and sat down. Chen Rongliang laughed.

He is an old smoker, carrying a simple hookah made of plastic bottles, taking a few puffs from time to time, and occasionally can't help but bow his head and take two puffs of tobacco when he talks.

Chen Zhengqian said that he was used to it, his grandfather used to be like this, the elderly people in the village were like this, and even some children would imitate it, but the young people like to smoke more cigarettes.

Speaking of fish ponds, there are a total of five fish ponds in the village, distributed in three different directions, among which two fish ponds are next to each other on Chen Zhengqian's house. Chen Rongliang's house happens to be next to Chen Zhengqian's house, with an area of about five acres, and lotus roots were planted in the past. When summer comes, beautiful lotus flowers will bloom in the pond, and naughty children will tie a sickle with a bamboo pole to find a way to pick the lotus flowers.

Chen Zhengqian naturally wouldn't just pick other people's lotuses, well, he instructed others to do this.

When Chen Zhengqian was a child, he was very envious of the village chief's family having a fish pond.

After all, in the countryside, he has his own fish pond, and becoming a fish pond owner means that there are fish to eat all year round, which is what many children dream of! When he was a child, he dreamed that one day he would be able to contract a fish pond with countless tilapia and grass carp and silver carp, and then tell the world loudly that this fish pond is my family!

It seems that this obsession has always grown with him, and even today, he still remembers the fish pond.

"Uncle Rongliang has a good harvest in the fish pond this year, when will you catch the fish?" Since the fish pond was mentioned, Chen Zhengqian asked with a smile. At this time of year, it is the harvest season for the fish ponds.

Chen Rongliang waved his hand and smiled and said: "Catch it again next month, catch it again at the end of the year, and catch it again on the tenth day of the first month, it's almost the same, this year's harvest is average, and it's not easy to raise fish now." ”

The fish in the rural fish ponds are mainly four large fish, and the output is not high, but the taste is quite delicious, at least better than the ones bought outside. The reason is that it is not large-scale breeding, and will not be fed with various hormone feeds, but fed grass and vegetable leaves, although the growth is slow, but it is definitely a pure natural farm fish, very fresh!

Just like the fish of the village chief's family, when he is at home, Chen Zhengqian can always see him or his wife, carrying a load of grass or vegetable leaves or sweet potato leaves, throwing them into the pond, and then causing groups of fish to rush to eat and make a splash.

Chen Zhengqian decided to get straight to the point, so he asked directly: "Uncle Rongliang, if you still have anything, just say it directly." ”

Seeing that he said this, Chen Rongliang couldn't beat around the bush anymore, so he smiled and said, "Actually, my uncle came this time to talk to your dad about something, but your dad is not here, so it's the same with you." ”

Chen Zhengqian nodded: "Uncle, you say, I'll listen." ”

Chen Rongliang opened his mouth and said: "That's the case, the last time the village held a meeting, it was proposed to repair the ancestral hall in the village, and every family had to pay according to the number of people, and everyone basically agreed. But it's not enough, and there is not a few dollars left in the public account in the village, and I heard that you have become a big boss, so I thought about coming over and asking to see if I can trouble you a little more. ”

Speaking of this, he glanced at Chen Zhengqian's face and found that there was no change, so he hurriedly added: "Don't worry, the specific donation list and the number of donations, we will all be engraved on the wall of the ancestral hall at that time, so that everyone can see clearly, and the money will not be spent elsewhere, all of it will be used to repair the ancestral hall." ”

It stands to reason that Chen Zhengqian has no reason to refuse this kind of good deeds and accumulation of virtue and blessing future generations, after all, everyone has a share in the ancestral hall in the village, and their roots are here, so they can't avoid the fact.

The key is the question of donating more and donating less, once or twice is fine, if every time there is something in the village, you have to pay for it yourself, then Chen Zhengqian is unwilling. After all, your own money is not blown by the wind.

This is a wake-up call for him, and he must set a benchmark!

But her mother Li Xiaomei kept giving herself a look, and Chen Zhengqian gave her a reassuring look.

Chen Zhengqian decided to kick the ball back to Chen Rongliang and asked him, "Uncle, how much do you think it is appropriate for me to donate?"

"This ...... I can't say, you just look at it, it's all mind, the ancestors see it in their eyes, in principle, it's one hundred people per household. Chen Rongliang is not easy to say, after all, there has never been a hard standard for donations, and one hundred per person is the meaning that everyone in the village has discussed, which is quite reasonable. If you feel that you don't need your ancestors, you can also donate, and it will be difficult to poke people in the back when the time comes.

In his opinion, it would be good for Chen Zhengqian to donate a few hundred yuan more, and it would be better if it was thousands.

Chen Zhengqian silently calculated in his heart, according to the more than 120 households in the village and more than 700 people, he would probably be able to receive more than 70,000 yuan, plus a little public subsidy in the village, 80,000 yuan could still be made.

But the ancestral hall is divided into two seats, and if you build two at the same time, 80,000 yuan is a bit reluctant. Could it be that if you repair the ancestral shrine once, you have to repair it better, at least for a few decades, 100,000 may be okay.

Thinking of this, Chen Zhengqian spoke: "Actually, donating is not a problem, but I have one condition. ”

Hearing his relief, Chen Rongliang suddenly perked up, and hurriedly said: "Tell me, as long as I can help, I will definitely help." ”

"Uncle don't worry, it won't make you very embarrassed, in fact, it can be regarded as seeking some welfare for the village. ”

Chen Zhengqian said with a smile, "That's right, I want to contract some land in the village and prepare to build an eco-tourism resort to see if it can attract some city people to play here." When the time comes, if you need manpower, you will recruit it directly from the village, and the salary will definitely be higher than farming, so I hope that the village will be convenient. ”

Chen Rongliang was stunned: "Oh, where do you want to contract?"

"It's just the one in front of my house!" Chen Zhengqian pointed to the outside of the courtyard and drew an arc, "From the back of the house to the opposite hillside, the bamboo forest in the east to the field boundary in the west, including the pond of your uncle's house, I want it!"

The sloping land has been abandoned for many years, and some people have planted a few eucalyptus trees there, and more of them are directly left with long grass. Chen Zhengqian wants to contract it, it shouldn't be a big problem. The focus is on these two ponds.

Chen Rongliang couldn't help but take a breath, obediently, this is too much money, this son of Chen Guowei's family seems to be richer than he thought, and it will be hundreds of thousands as soon as he makes a move.

Even Li Xiaomei was stunned, she didn't expect her son to contract such a large piece of land as soon as he opened his mouth, and he didn't discuss it with himself, so when his father came back, it would not be too late for the family to discuss their opinions.

Chen Zhengqian looked at Chen Rongliang and said seriously: "The land has been contracted for 50 years, and the annual rent is calculated according to the highest rent price in the village, and I will not take advantage of the village." But two ponds, I want to buy, only buy not rent! If I can talk about it earlier, I will donate a little more, 5,000 yuan. ”

This is already an excellent price, if he still refuses to agree, Chen Zhengqian has no choice.

"This ......" it was Chen Rongliang's turn to hesitate. (To be continued.) )
