【Chapter 083】 The question of the future
It took two days for Liu Rui to ride a motorcycle and carry a wine barrel around the street of the night market, trying to sell his own rice wine. Of course, he still tries to make use of the various relationships at hand to create various opportunities.
Teachers, classmates, relatives, friends, ,......, all kinds of relationships have been moved out to help Liu Rui and others get online, and finally there will be an opportunity to sell rice wine.
In this society, just because the quality of your products is good, you may not be able to become a supplier, often many food stalls in the selection of suppliers, the quality is not very different, they prefer to choose acquaintances, friends of the product.
After some hard work, Liu Rui finally negotiated the orders for the four food stalls, and the rice wine needed by these restaurants in the future will be provided by Liu's Wine Workshop. Among them, Zheng Dahai made a great effort, his face influenced the decision of the two stall owners, and the remaining two also accepted the rice wine of the Liu family because of various complex social relations.
Of course, the most important thing is that the samples provided by Liu Rui are of good quality, so that the bosses of various stalls do not have many reasons to refuse.
In this way, the products of Liujia Distillery once again opened the market of the county, and I hope that this time it will not be as anticlimactic as the last time.
After negotiating the supply agreement, Ma Changquan also promised to help the Liu family bring rice wine to the county seat when collecting vegetables every day, and Liu Rui would be responsible for the final settlement.
At this time, Liu Rui finally found that after installing the phone, the biggest benefit was actually the smooth flow of information, and the business of the family wine shop became much better. If many villagers need a thirty or fifty catties of rice wine at home, they will notify Liu Rui by phone, and he can send it by motorcycle.
Zhang Guizhi, who originally thought that installing a phone was a pure waste of money, didn't say anything more after seeing that the business of the wine shop had improved because of the phone at home.
After receiving new orders, Liu Rui increased production at full speed, hoping to ensure the completion of all orders. Fortunately, at this time, Liu Jiahong had recovered his health, and he could help Liu Rui do some light work such as watching the fire in the wine shop, which made Liu Rui a lot easier.
In this way, smoke comes out of the chimney of Liu's distillery every day, and the production activities are in full swing, just like the Liu family's son, and they are in full swing.
Since Liu Jiahong was injured, the Liu family has been covered by a dark cloud, and there is always a depressed mood spreading. No matter how good Liu Rui is, the family that lacks a pillar always seems to be missing something.
Now that Liu Jiahong has recovered, the family's various industries have also entered the right track and embarked on the road of vigorous development, just like the bright sunshine breaking through the dark clouds, making the Liu family full of excitement again.
Liu Rui rode a motorcycle, slowly moving forward on the machine farming road, and the faint fragrance of rice flowers wafting in the air made him a little intoxicated. It's good to have anything in the countryside, but this traffic problem is a bit scratching your head, even if the car is good, there is no way to run wild, you can only move at a turtle speed.
After the county magistrate came to visit Yang Zheng last time, technicians and petty bureaucrats from the county transportation bureau successively went to the village to inspect and survey the route, saying that the county had included the reconstruction of the highway from Qingyun to Liang Village in today's new projects. In those days, Liu Rui also went to the village committee to accompany the meeting a few times, and those guys drank really fiercely, and they were really cadres of the 'alcohol test'.
However, according to the situation on Qingyun's side, it is raining a lot now, and the autumn harvest will be in time for a while, so it is not the best time to build roads. If the construction of the highway can start after the late rice harvest, it will be considered that the bureaucrats will move quickly. If it weren't for Old Man Yang and the scientific research workers of the research institute putting on a posture of being resident in Liangcun, I am afraid that this road would still be just a flash in the pan.
If this road can be opened, the local products of Liangcun can be transported out of Qingyun more easily and to a broader market. For Liu Rui, repairing the road is also of great significance to the expansion of the winery, and perhaps many of his plans will be realized slowly.
Of course, the Tongjiang River, which lies on the edge of Qingyun, is the biggest traffic obstacle for the people of Qingyun at any time, and when it can 'fly north and south with a bridge', the traffic lifeline of Qingyun can be regarded as truly opened.
While driving the car, while thinking in his mind about how to expand the scale of his family's various industries after the opening of the car in the future, the more Liu Rui thought about it, the more excited he became, and he couldn't wait for this day to come.
The car drove into the yard, Liu Rui unexpectedly found that the yard was full of people, grandparents, several uncles and aunts were there, and when they saw Liu Rui coming back, they all stared at Liu Rui, as if they hadn't seen it for a long time.
"Why is everyone looking at me like that?" Liu Rui touched his cheek, leaned over to the rearview mirror to take a look, and found that there was nothing wrong.
"Xiao Rui, come and sit!" The old man sitting on the Taishi's chair pointed to a chair next to him.
Liu Rui scratched his head, a little puzzled, why everyone put on a solemn battle, which made Liu Rui feel uncomfortable.
"Xiao Rui, when your father was injured, your uncles were against letting you go home, and in the end, your grandfather agreed. You've been back for seven months now, what's your thoughts? After Liu Rui sat down, the old man asked.
"Me? Any thoughts? Liu Rui was a little strange, why did he suddenly think of this question today?
Everything at the beginning is naturally vivid, as if it had just happened. The father was seriously injured and lay in the hospital, the pillar of the family fell without warning, the mother cried, the younger siblings looked dazed, and the originally complete world became shattered in an instant.
At that moment, Liu Rui decided to go home and carry everything at home and fulfill the responsibility of being the eldest son. Of course, this decision was strongly opposed by several uncles at that time, and in their opinion, although they suffered temporary difficulties, everyone supported each other and gritted their teeth and persevered until Liu Rui graduated from university.
In the end, when everyone was at a stalemate, the old man agreed to let Liu Rui go home for a while, and wait until the situation improved before making plans.
Seven months have passed in a blink of an eye, and Liu Rui has not been crushed by the heavy farm work in the countryside, but has done something that others have not done for several years or even more than ten years in just a few months, which is somewhat surprising. Now that Liu Jiahong's body has also recovered, and the family's economic situation has also improved greatly, everyone's idea is naturally to let Liu Rui return to school as soon as possible to prepare for the college entrance examination next year.
It's only been a month since school started, and with Liu Rui's foundation, there is no problem at all to catch up with homework.
"Of course, or you want to live in this backcountry for the rest of your life?" The old man nodded, his fingers tapping on the armrest of the chair.
"What's so bad about being in the countryside? Now that everything is just starting to take off at home, I still have a lot of plans in my mind that have not yet been implemented. Liu Rui shook his head, hesitated for a while and said, "I decided to continue to stay at home, expand the winery, and transform the valley in the back mountain, and transform the compound into a resort villa." ”
Liu Rui's answer was a bit unexpected by everyone, and it immediately aroused different opinions among the elders.
"Xiao Rui, are you stupid at home?" Uncle Zhang Zhenguang frowned, and said word by word: "If you don't go back to school, stay at home for a few years, and forget all your knowledge, you will really only be a farmer at that time!" ”
At the beginning, it was Zhang Zhenguang who was most opposed to Liu Rui going home, and his views have not changed until now. For the village party secretary who is familiar with the countryside and has considerable contact with the outside world, Zhang Zhenguang naturally understands what it means for a rural child to be admitted to university and jump out of the dragon gate. Don't look at Liu Rui, who has made a lot of money during this time, but these are unstable, maybe it will end one day.
For the older generation, being admitted to university and getting a good job in the city is the greatest achievement in life, and nothing else is in their eyes.
As soon as Zhang Zhenguang spoke, others followed suit, persuading Liu Rui to give up the idea of farming and return to Qingshan No. 1 Middle School to continue preparing for the college entrance examination.
For a while, Liu Rui was a little embarrassed, and he didn't know where to start with his stomach full of thoughts. After all, they are all elders, and everyone is also for their own good, and Liu Rui is not easy to refute, so he can only nod his head and say yes.
"Rui'er, don't you want to?" However, how vicious is the old man's vision? At a glance, I saw through Liu Rui's perfunctory.
As soon as the old man spoke, everyone died down, and each returned to his seat and stared at Liu Rui tightly.
"Grandpa, do you want to hear the truth or do you want me to coax you?" Liu Rui knew that it was inevitable that there would be a showdown, so he let it go.
"At this time, you are still playing tricks with your grandfather?" The old man stroked his beard with a smile and said, "Let's talk about it, let's listen to what you have to say?" ”
"Grandpa, I hope you can give me a year to try to make a career at home, and after a year, if I don't succeed, I can go back to school!" Liu Rui didn't beat around the bush, and directly said his thoughts.
After the events at the beginning of the year, Liu Rui knew that no one in the two families could oppose the old man's decision, as long as the old man agreed, things would be easy to handle.
"How did you come up with the idea of starting a business from home? Didn't you like to study the most? The old man squinted at his eldest grandson, and a glint flashed in his eyes.
"Isn't it time to work to earn money and support your family? Now that all the industries in my family are booming, I want to see if I can make them bigger? Liu Rui did not hide his hesitation, and directly said some of his thoughts about the future.
…………
After some narration, Liu Rui stopped his mouth and looked at the old man quietly. Everyone else also focused on the old man, waiting for his decision.
If the old man agrees, Liu Rui can continue to work at home for a year, and then decide what to do in the future after a year? If the old man doesn't agree, even if he is unwilling in his heart, Liu Rui has to obediently return to Qingshan No. 1 Middle School and prepare for the exam with his younger brothers and sisters.
There are always many turning points in life!
