Chapter 33 The Origin of the Reservoir
Wang Yong looked at the giant reservoir in front of him, and his heart began to bubble. Even the strong motion sickness reaction doesn't seem to be so bad, and being blown by the breeze accompanied by cool water vapor suddenly feels relaxed.
"What a place! Uncle Qin, this place is definitely a good place except for the difficult roads! Why are you still embarrassed to find me to solve this problem for you? Shouldn't it be rushing for someone to ask for it? ”
Wang Yong suddenly remembered such a question at this time, it stands to reason that such good natural conditions, as long as anyone with a little vision can see that this place is definitely rich! How could no one want it?
Qin Lang didn't even look at Wang Yong, he looked at the sparkling water, and after a long time he spoke: "Aren't the people in our place poor?" In such a good place, it is definitely not possible to sell cheaply, and if others don't say it, I will not agree with it first. ”
Wang Yong nodded and agreed with Qin Lang, the deputy county magistrate, if this place was really going to be sold cheaply, Wang Yong also felt that it would be a pity. Not to mention anything else, ten years later, such a big reservoir, and there is a reservoir with spring water sources to worry about drying up, don't say 20,000, you are out of 200,000, 500,000, if it doesn't matter or the relationship is not hard, no one will care about you!
"The county has held several meetings on this matter, and there is a consensus that if no one can be found to contract, the ownership of the reservoir will be handed over to the village. It is the nearest pheasant ditch nearby, which is now called Liujiagou. ”
Hearing this, Wang Yong suddenly understood why when later generations heard about this place, it was because of corruption and bribery by the village party secretary that he rented the rent of 1,500 yuan a year for this large reservoir to a business owner in the town, and the contract was signed for 50 years.
After being reported by the villagers and found out by the higher authorities, the right to use the reservoir was re-auctioned, and a big boss in the city bid 280,000 yuan a year to get it. Of course, it also includes the contracting rights of several hills around the reservoir, otherwise a reservoir may not be able to pay such a large price.
Qin Lang gushed to Wang Yong about the origin of this big reservoir, it turned out that this big reservoir was built in the 60s when it was a big production.
At that time, it was said that the whole township was mobilized, and thousands of young and strong laborers from all over the township were dispatched during the slack season, and it took nearly three years to completely complete the construction.
If nothing else, the dam of this reservoir will take a lot of work. In contrast to the current reinforced concrete gravity dam, the dam was made entirely of large chunks of cyan basalt from the surrounding mountains.
The bottom of the dam can be hundreds of meters wide at its widest point, and the top is also about 10 meters wide.
From afar, the dam is like a huge city wall, lying between two mountains, blocking hundreds of millions of tons of fresh water in the reservoir, and it has remained immovable after decades of wind and rain.
After so many years of construction, in addition to the role of flood control, this reservoir often opens the floodgates in the drought season to provide irrigation water for the surrounding tens of thousands of acres of land.
The reservoir is also rich in aquatic products, at first it was just some small miscellaneous fish that I don't know where it came from, small, snail mussels or something, and then through the surrounding villages to purchase or catch various fish or fry from other places and keep throwing into the reservoir, now, this reservoir with a huge water area is very rich.
More than a dozen catties of large grass carp are often caught by lucky people, not to mention the rest of the silver carp, carp, fathead fish, catfish and the largest number of crucian carp.
It's just that Gangcheng is also a seaside city here, and there are many fishing villages in Licheng, a neighboring county of Longcheng, compared to fish, this thing is in Gangcheng, whether it is a city or a village, it can't be sold at a price, unless it is a particularly rare and precious fish species.
For example, the price of ordinary carp is much better than that of other freshwater fish. But even so, ordinary carp can only be sold for eight cents in the village market.
And what kind of money can rural people have in their hands? Generally, when buying fish, it is not to pick a big one like those who are good to show off in the future, one or two catties is the most popular, and few people care about more than five catties.
At this time, the per capita annual income of the entire rural areas of Longcheng was still hovering at four or five hundred yuan, and the best people could only reach an annual income of three or five thousand yuan.
You ask him to spend a dozen yuan to buy a fish to eat, and if there are no special circumstances, no one will be willing to do this. It's nice to be able to spend a piece or two to improve it.
Like the owner who spent five or six hundred or even thousands of yuan to buy a big fish more than ten years later, you can't see it here in the countryside of this era. Not to mention anything else, if someone really does this, then they will definitely be scolded behind their backs for lacking heart and losing their hearts!
Such a big fish, not to mention whether it is delicious or not, except for those who are dedicated to giving gifts and begging others to do things, ordinary people will never be able to do such an unreliable thing.
"I'm telling you, you kid definitely picked it up! This reservoir is not to be said, it is placed in front of your eyes, and everything is clear at a glance. I'll tell you about some of the attached hills around here. ”
Saying that, Qin Lang raised his head, crossed his waist with one hand, and pointed to several surrounding mountains with the other and said to Wang Yong: "Look at it, according to the conditions set by the county, there are four mountains around this reservoir in the east, north, west, and southeast, except for the southeast, that is, the mountain we came in is a little smaller, and there is no soil on the mountain is a barren mountain, and the other mountains are full of all kinds of green pines and cypresses!" ”
"I've heard of this, it seems that the city organization used airplanes to sow seeds."
"It's only been a few years since that aerial seeding, and even if it grows, it's still a sapling. But if you look at the surrounding mountains, not all of them are saplings. ”
Of course, Wang Yong saw that those pine and cypress trees were all big trees with the thickness of a bowl mouth that had grown for at least ten years, but he also knew that although this mountain was contracted to himself, it was estimated that there was no way to hit the idea of the trees on the mountain.
"You mean the tree on the mountain belongs to me too?"
"Don't even think about it!"
Wang Yong looked like this, so that Qin Lang, who was angry and wanted to teach Wang Yong a lesson on environmental protection and greening, as well as the importance of protecting vegetation, held back in one breath, and his face turned red.
This little rabbit is knowingly asking! After a while, he almost let him take the ditch, I really don't know what is in his little head.
"Don't be that disdainful, let me tell you, it's not easy in this forest. Because of its remote location and the difficulty of walking, it is almost isolated from the world except for the occasional hike up the mountain by nearby villagers. ”
Hearing this, Wang Yong's eyes began to glow, and he immediately knew what it meant. Isolated from the rest of the world, it means that this place must have a lot of game!
What pheasants, hares, wild ducks, geese, all kinds of birds, there must be a lot, when the time comes, you may not have to buy your own seedlings!
I just don't know if there are wild boars or something in this mountain? But after thinking about it for a moment, he shook his head and put this unrealistic idea behind him.
The mountain terrain is not big and not high. Because it belongs to the branch of Yanshan, the most place is the five or six mountains, and there is no environment for large wild animals to hide from human hunting.
If there were wild boars, I am afraid that no one else would be needed, and the small village that I saw when I came would be able to exterminate them all, eat them up, and wipe them out.
In this era, people's cravings for meat are unimaginable for those who advocate healthy diets in the future. Villagers who can't eat meat a few times a year, when they see wild boars that don't cost money, they definitely try their best to kill them first before they talk about anything else.
No matter how ferocious the wild boar is, in the face of the vast sea of the people, there is only one way to die, and it will become a meal on people's plates, and it will end up eating in the mouth.
"There are not only pheasants, hares, and ducks, but also wild vegetables and mushrooms. In particular, there are several pieces of mountain vegetables that are special in the mountains near Bohai Bay. ”
Wang Yong doesn't care what kind of mountain vegetables are not mountain vegetables, for him, the first thing to pay attention to is the various aquatic products in the reservoir, and the second is the various wild things on the mountain. As for all kinds of wild vegetables, they were not in his eyes at all.
Even twenty years later, according to the memories of the future in his mind, these wild vegetables were not well developed, and no one was interested in them except for some old people and young people who ate fresh food nearby.
"Let's go, someone from the village is here, this time I invite you to eat an authentic whole fish feast, so that you can have a good time."
Wang Yong looked up and saw that three people were walking towards them along the road they had come. When there were still about ten meters away, a person who knew at a glance that he was definitely not a local peasant when he was dressed up greeted loudly:
"County Magistrate Qin, the meals are ready, do you think we should go over to eat first?"
"This is Liu Wanfu, the secretary of the town, and you are cousins of Uncle Biao." Qin Lang introduced a sentence and took Wang Yong and Wang Xing to greet him.
"This is the little prodigy of Wangjiazhuang? My ears are calloused! It's my wish to meet here today. ”
As soon as he saw his flattering smiling face, Wang Yong frowned, and his heart was very greasy. However, thinking of his position and the county magistrate Qin beside him, Wang Yong breathed another sigh of relief, and a very unnatural smile appeared on his face.
Every family has a scripture that is difficult to read, and it is not easy for anyone!
After introduction, the other two middle-aged people who were older and wearing new clothes were the secretary and village chief of nearby Liujiagou. The two old peasants who had never seen the world were already at a loss when they saw the town secretary, and when they learned that the young man in his thirties in front of them was actually the county magistrate, they were even more stumbling and didn't know what to do.
"Wang Yong, come here, come here, in the future, your family will contract this reservoir, and it is inevitable that you will trouble Secretary Liu and Village Chief Liu, you will have to pay a good tribute to these two in a while!"
Qin Lang was very hated and gave Wang Yong a look, and Wang Yong, who saw it, wanted to rush up and slap him. What? Let me toast? Lao Tzu is only ten years old, okay?
However, Wang Yong was still friendly to the two village secretaries and village chiefs, and the sweet greeting of the uncle and uncle immediately made the two old peasants have a good impression of this polite city child.
In their eyes, how can a child who can follow the county magistrate down is not from the city. But when they listened to the conversation of the county magistrate and secretary for a while, they learned that this polite and sensible child was actually the child of a rural family in a township not far from here, and when their family had to spend two thousand yuan a year to contract this useless reservoir in their eyes, they were both stupid, and they couldn't take a step when they stood on the side of the road in a daze.
Whose child is this? How can the adults of their family be so relieved to let a child call the shots for such a big matter!
The second chapter is sent, ask for collection, ask for recommendation!
