Chapter 14: The Enthusiasm of the Villagers

"I won't lose money, Grandpa Zhao, don't worry, I won't do anything I'm not sure of, and I'm not going to plant crops on barren mountains, nor do I want to grow vegetables, but fruit trees, flowers, and grass!" Li Cheng knew that Old Man Zhao was afraid that he would never go back like a meat bun and a dog when he opened a barren mountain, and he was worried about himself, Li Cheng was very moved, but if he wanted to explain all his plans to Old Man Zhao, it would not be very realistic, so he could only tell him a rough idea for the time being.

"It's understandable to plant fruit trees and flowers, but you say planting grass? Grass has always been the enemy of our croppers, if we have grass in the field, then it's not enough to get rid of it, why do you still need to plant grass? "Old man Zhao now has 10,000 question marks in his mind, when he heard Li Cheng say that he wanted to plant fruit trees and flowers on the barren mountain, Old Man Zhao still wanted to praise it, after all, this idea is very good, the barren mountain is not suitable for planting crops and vegetables, but it is very suitable for planting flowers and fruit trees, but the next second Li Cheng actually said the word "planting grass", which made Old Man Zhao very incomprehensible.

Li Cheng smiled, as if he had known that Old Man Zhao would have such questions, and said very calmly: "Grandpa Zhao, you don't know yet, now many big cities are desperately engaged in greening, all roads need to be greened, all real estate projects need to be greened, and even some enterprises and companies need to be greened, in this case, the grass that has been planted will become the darling of the city." ”

"And the grass I want to plant is not the same as the kind of grass that we love to grow in our crops, and the grass I want to plant is a variety specially used for greening! And I've already thought about it, whether it's fruit trees or flower trees, there are large open spaces under these trees, and planting green grass on these open spaces can also save costs and increase profits. ”

"Good! Good! Good! Old man Zhao listened to Li Cheng's explanation, and directly said three good words, Old man Zhao looked at Li Cheng with great satisfaction and said: "Li Cheng, you kid deserves to be a university, when thinking about the problem, it is different from us farmers who have not gone out of the mountains a few times, in my opinion, your kid will soar sooner or later!" ”

"Grandpa Zhao, it's not that I want to fly Huang Tengda, it's that I want to lead all the villagers of Baimahe Village to fly Huang Tengda!" Li Cheng said with a serious expression and a firm tone.

Li Cheng's words made Old Man Zhao say a few good words, Old Man Zhao was very optimistic about Li Cheng, a college student village official, from the beginning, and now, he is even more optimistic, he thinks that it is really possible for Baimahe Village to follow Li Cheng to be well-off!

The most important thing is that Mr. Zhao is very keen to find a problem, that is, the current Li Cheng seems to have an indescribable temperament, a bit like domineering, and a bit like a feeling of being full of ambition, and Mr. Zhao can't say clearly, anyway, he feels that the current Li Cheng is different from before, and has become like a leader who can guide the country and strategize calmly.

Old Man Zhao left Li Cheng at his house for lunch, and then asked Li Cheng to shout a loudspeaker and let the villagers come to Li Cheng's house for a meeting.

Although in this era, basically every household has a telephone and mobile phone, but the mass xing events such as shouting loudspeakers to release some important information, or calling everyone to a meeting together, are still used in Baimahe Village, not only Baimahe Village, Li Cheng knows that most of the rural areas are still using this way to convey the information that the masses need to know, which is convenient and fast.

Because most of the villagers in Baimahe Village are now young laborers who go out to work, and the people who stay at home are basically the elderly, women and children, so the people present at the meeting are basically women except for the elderly, but this doesn't matter, whether it is the old man or the woman, as long as they can be the head of the family.

"Now there are basically people from every family, only a few special circumstances have not come, and those are all families who have gone out to work, so we don't have to wait for them, let's just talk about things!" After Li Cheng saw that everyone except for the whole family who went out to work, he began to say: "I summoned everyone here today to discuss something with you, I want to contract ten acres of land on the barren mountain as an experimental field in my personal capacity, and carry out some practical planting." ”

"The barren mountain belongs to everyone, although I am the village head, but I can't use the barren mountain as much as I want, so I want to ask everyone if they have any opinions on this matter, if there is no opinion, let's discuss the way of contracting."

"Village chief, what can you do when you contract that barren mountain?" Aunt Wang was the first to jump out and ask, and the other villagers were also puzzled by this question, and they all expressed their doubts to Li Cheng.

Li Cheng patiently explained to the villagers what he had said to Old Man Zhao before, but in order to save trouble, he omitted the matter of planting grass for him, but even so, when the big guy heard that Li Cheng was going to plant fruit trees and flowers on the barren mountain, he also expressed a strong sense of admiration.

"Our village chief really went to college, but he is different from ordinary people, and people's ideas are more advanced than us."

"Yes, we have regarded barren mountains as barren mountains for so many generations, and we have never thought that fruit trees can be planted there."

"We just thought that we wouldn't plant it, and if we could plant it, we wouldn't try it! In the final analysis, being literate is different! ”

Li Cheng said a little embarrassed: "Big guy, don't praise me anymore, I'm thin-skinned, I should be embarrassed to praise me again, let's talk about the way of contracting first." ”

"Li Cheng, what do you think and tell the big guys, you are our village chief, we all trust you and listen to you." Old Man Zhao took the lead and said.

Old Man Zhao's thoughts are the thoughts of the whole village, and the simple mountain villagers have the most respect for the most prestigious old man in the village.

"Well, I have two ideas, you can discuss and see, choose one of them, the first way is to contract at one time according to the number of years, I plan to contract for 300 yuan per acre, the term is ten years, but now because I don't have so many years on hand, so I can only pay you half of the contract money first, and there is another way is to wait for the profit of the land I contracted, let's divide it into seven or three, I seven, you three, what do you think?"

"I see that the village chief of that barren mountain can use it directly if you want to, and what else is there to talk about contracting or not!"

"That's right! I think so, village chief, you are a college student who came all the way from the city to work on the construction of our Baimahe Village, and we don't know how to thank you, so you can just make up that barren mountain as much as you want. ”

"I agree! Barren mountains don't need to be contracted, you can use them directly from the village chief! ”
