Chapter 0158: It's Time to Build This Road
Wang Fumin's family in Taohualing Village bought a brand-new black sedan car, which suddenly became the biggest news in Dazhai Village.
Old neighbors, new neighbors, people of all ages in the village came to see the excitement.
The car was parked in the courtyard of the Wang's chicken farm, watching the lively crowd, bringing the children to come, for fear that the children would not pay attention to the paint of other people's cars, and they all looked like they were facing a great enemy.
Wang Fumin treasured this sedan car more than his son, and people said that the car was more than 400,000 yuan, and it would cost thousands of yuan to touch a piece of paint. When the people who came to see the new heard it, they were even more afraid to move.
Wang Fumin and his family originally lived in the center of the village, and there were about 80 households in the village, and the original houses were all very close to each other, so the relationship between everyone was very close. So, after the car was bought, almost everyone in the village came to see it.
Sometimes some young men who had a good relationship wanted to sit in the cab, and if Wang Shaodong saw it, he would take the initiative to open the car door and let them touch the steering wheel or something. But when there was only Wang Fumin, he looked a little reluctant.
After Wang Shaodong noticed this, he reminded his father after everyone left, saying that this car was a pile of scrap iron, far less important than the old and young masters in the village, and don't affect the relationship with everyone for this thing that can't speak.
Moreover, Wang Shaodong also said that his brothers and uncles went in to sit, and the damage caused was not as bad as the small dirt road from Dazhai Village to Taohualing Village.
This dirt road is only 4 kilometers in total, and it is full of potholes, and if a hairy person drives an A6, he will have to bump into it.
Another point, more importantly, in the summer rainy season, the road is very muddy, not to mention that the sedan car can't be driven at all, even the tractor is often stuck in the mud puddle.
Among the 14 administrative villages in Dazhai Township, by 2003, the two richest villages were Dazhai Village and Bian Jiaquan Village. Both villages are located on National Highway 205, and then almost two dozen wealthy families own their own cars.
Those who own private cars also put their cars in the yards on both sides of National Highway 205, and never drove their cars into the village.
Of the other twelve natural villages, it would be good to have two broken Santanas in a few villages. And like Wang Shaodong, there are really not many people who drive an A6 directly into their homes along the dirt road.
Wang Shaodong likes cars, but he doesn't say that he treats cars as ancestors. However, if you want to talk about the potholed road, Wang Shaodong has a small plan in his heart, and when he has money in the future, he must build the 4,000-meter dirt road into asphalt.
After the car was bought, it was kept in the yard for the villagers to visit, and then Wang Shaodong never had the opportunity to drive out.
Six days later, Wang Shaodong called Han Kang and asked him how the class reunion was going, and how many people could be reached by then.
The class reunion is scheduled for tomorrow, the day after the May Day holiday, and basically all the students who went out to college should be able to come back. Unless it is those who go out of the province to go to college, and the cost of a trip back is too expensive to be willing to pay.
As for the more majority, not to mention the university, when it comes to having a meal in the Xinxing Building, I really don't care who invites me.
Wang Shaodong wants to invite his classmates to get together in Xinxing Building, set for tomorrow, Han Kang told Wang Shaodong on the phone, the notice is that he and Han Haixia, the secretary of the Youth League, and the fat man Wu Zhe and the three of them called one by one, and the forty-eight people in the class have all received the notice, and there are only thirty people who agreed at that time, and then said that there are several more who will go when they have time, and they clearly said that they can't participate, that is, three people who go to college in other provinces.
When Wang Shaodong heard this, he said that he had to book a hotel today, and it seemed that there would be no problem with forty or so people, and if the head teacher invited them over, the five tables should be able to sit down.
Thinking like this, Wang Shaodong said to his family, and then planned to drive the newly bought A6, and planned to go to Xinxing Building to book a private room first, and then go to the school to find his homeroom teacher Ma Guanghui to sit down.
The car drove to the door of Ma Zhentang's house, Wang Shaodong frowned, then took off the gear, pulled the handbrake, got off the station and shouted inside at the door of Ma Zhentang's house: "Uncle Zhentang, hasn't my sister Lili come back on May Day?"
Yesterday was a holiday on May Day, but Wang Shaodong did not hear Ma Lili coming home.
Ma Zhentang's daughter-in-law came out of the house and said to Wang Shaodong with a smile: "Dongzi, your sister Lili is going to be a tutor in Quancheng on May Day, and she doesn't plan to come back." ”
Wang Shaodong sighed, turned around and got into his car with some regret.
The road to the village was built in the 80s when it was first opened, and before that, in the 60s and 70s, this dirt road was only less than a meter wide, not to mention driving a car on it, even if two bicycles were ongoing, someone had to carry the bicycle to the side of the road to give way.
The fact is that if you don't build roads, villages like Taohualing, Qingquanling, Luohanyu and so on located in the mountains will have no way out.
Later, in the 90s, the state called on all villages to raise funds to build roads, and then the richer Dazhai Village and Fangjiazhuang Village raised funds to build the original dirt roads into asphalt roads. However, from the west of Fangjiazhuang Village to Taohualing Village, the four-kilometer road was not enough to build the asphalt road because the villages on both sides were relatively poor, and the money raised was not enough to repair the asphalt road.
But after a rainy season, the sand and gravel were washed away, and the dirt road was even more difficult to walk than before.
Walking on this kind of road, driving a car with a not very high chassis like Audi A6, if you are not careful, you will be knocked by the raised stones on the road.
Wang Shaodong dared to hang second gear at most, and drove the car to dodge left and right, and finally came to the asphalt road in Fangjiazhuang Village, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.
"NND, when Lao Tzu has money, it would be too embarrassing to build this road into a two-way four-lane asphalt road. ”
A good car is not as fast as other people's bicycles, Wang Shaodong is really aggrieved, and when he arrived on the asphalt road, he immediately hung up on the fifth gear.
In this era, there are not many pedestrians on the road, but there are more pedestrians on both sides of the road.
A brand-new Audi A6 drove from the west, and those who knew how to drive on both sides of the road frowned.
"Who bought an A6 from the western village?"
"Don't you know? The big chicken farmers in Taohualing Village, their family has bought a new A6."
"Emma, can you still run A6 on that potholed road over there?"
Indeed, this road should really be repaired.
