Chapter 067: Swallow Ridge
Chapter 067 Yanziling Cheng Wei looked around at the surrounding environment, the orphanage looked extremely simple and dilapidated, but there were many orphans in the courtyard, from the youngest five or six years old, to the oldest eleven or two years old, there were more than twenty people in total.
In addition to Cui Yuying herself, the orphanage has only one cooking aunt. Although people like Liang Meilan who went out of the orphanage will more or less send money back.
But a woman was in her early thirties. has been running an orphanage, and this perseverance alone is enough to make Cheng Wei admire in his heart, no wonder the local government decided to take out the land to sponsor.
If you really settle in this area, you will definitely have to take care of the orphanage in the future. Not to mention anything else, Cui Yuying, as Liang Meilan's adoptive mother, this relationship is enough for him to be filial.
Of course, Cheng Wei is not saying that if he does not settle in this area, he will not take care of the orphanage. It's just that the care is relatively limited, and at most I will pay for the orphanage to renovate it, and leave a sum of money when I leave as a nutrition fee for the orphanage.
"Ugh."
An inexplicable sadness comes to my heart, I am also a parent, why is there such a big gap?
Cui Yuying, who was on the side, saw Cheng Wei holding the teacup in a daze, so she asked, "Xiao Cheng, is the tea not to your liking?" ”
Cheng Wei wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, changed to a smiling face and said, "No, this tea is good." It's just a little touch, which makes Aunt Cui smile. ”
This tea can't be named, the entrance is full of bitterness, and it can't be called sweet, at most, the bitterness is reduced after swallowing, and it is not a good tea. But with the scene in front of you, you can experience a variety of flavors of life.
I stayed in the orphanage for half a day, helping out with part of the work. Cheng Wei and Liang Meilan, under the leadership of Cui Yuying, chartered a private car and came to a place called Huangjia Village at the foot of the mountain.
This place is close to the mountains, and is in the most marginal area of Raohe Town, since it is named Raohe Town, it is naturally surrounded by the river, Huangjia Village is at the corner of the river, it can be said that it is surrounded by water on three sides, and the other side is a high mountain. Although it is a little deserted, there are mountains and rivers, and the scenery is indeed beautiful.
But this road is not too bad, this road is pure yellow mud road, full of potholes, not to mention, and very narrow. A few people can be said to have bumped all the way, not to mention that Cheng Wei couldn't stand it, and even the private car driver shouted for more money.
The chassis of the car he drove was not high, and the tires had to sink into the big pits, and the body was also scratched by trees on both sides.
No wonder those investors are reluctant to come here to inject capital, before they carry out their own projects, they have to pay to build this road first, and this is a highway, private people can not occupy it, and the construction of it will be commended by the local government at most, maybe the project will have attracted competitors before it is carried out, who wants to be the big boss.
After getting out of the car, they added another 200 yuan to the private car driver, and the other party expressed his willingness to take them back. After all, he didn't want to go out with an empty car, but he was a little breathless when he looked at the muddy car, and Cheng Weiken added money and said differently.
Huangjia Village is not large, there may not even be 100 households in total, and most of the houses are still tiled, and many of them have been emptied.
Young people are not to see a few, and even if they do, they should be farming in the fields. Most of the elderly moved a wooden chair to the front of the door and sat there to rest or chat with others, while the children left behind played in groups under the big trees.
Life seems to outsiders to be quite hard, but they can enjoy it, which is a change in mentality.
When they saw Cui Yuying's arrival, the left-behind children immediately put down what they were doing and surrounded this side one after another. Cui Yuying and Liang Meilan took out the prepared candies and handed them out one by one. They also brought some softer food and distributed it to the elderly in each family.
"Xiaoping, do you know where the old village chief is?" Holding an idle child, Cui Yuying asked patiently.
"The village chief's grandfather just went to the village committee, and I heard that some distinguished guests came to the door, so I went to clean the ground first."
This distinguished guest should refer to Cheng Wei, Cui Yuying must have greeted him in advance before he came. Although Cheng Wei just plans to contract a manor to have fun, this money may not be enough to get Huangjiacun out of poverty and become rich, at least it can improve his life, right?
The group walked to the so-called village committee, which was actually a vacant warehouse, and from a distance, one old and one young could be seen moving. Needless to say, the old one must be the village chief of Huangjia Village, and the younger one is a very sturdy guy.
"Lao Wang, this is Cheng Wei, the owner who plans to contract land." Cui Yuying introduced to both parties: "This is Huang Mingquan, the head of Huangjia Village, Lao Wang is very easy-going, Xiao Cheng, you can call him Lao Huang or Uncle Quan, but don't be the village head before and after the village head." ”
"Hello Uncle Quan, just call me Xiao Cheng." After the two shook hands, Cheng Wei took the lead in speaking.
"Okay, okay, the land of our Huangjia Village is in Yanziling at the back, I asked Huangshi to take you on a field trip first, and then come back to discuss related matters."
Huang Mingquan is not in a hurry to negotiate the price with the other party, because it is useless for him to be in a hurry, and the decision is still in the hands of the other party. The main reason is that I have had a few experiences before, and many people are interested in that land, but as soon as the topic of transportation is concerned, it stops.
The sturdy young man standing next to him is called Huang Shi, Huang Mingquan's grandson, and he stayed in Huangjia Village to take care of his grandfather.
"Boss Cheng, you look at a large area of Yanziling."
Huangshi did not take Cheng Wei directly to Yanziling, but to a nearby high mountainside, from which you can see the whole of Yanziling.
It is a low-sloped mountainous area, and the land is a dark color, and the surface is somewhat undulating but fairly flat. According to Huangshi, this place used to be inhabited by large groups of swallows, hence the name Swallow Ridge.
Although those swallows no longer return to the nest, they have left a lot of potholes here, which may cause trouble for Cheng Wei.
Cheng Wei nodded after hearing this, this Huangshi is sincere. These potholes are not visible from a distance, and they have been abandoned for many years, and they have long been covered with weeds, so it is difficult to find them even if you get close.
Cheng Wei said that he wanted to take a closer look, and Huangshi led the way in front. Sweeping his eyes over 10,000 acres of fields, Cheng Wei was surrounded by a warm breeze, birds singing and flowers, and green mountains and green waters, which already made him imagine a poetic life in the future.
"This is it!" After feeling the environment here for a while, Cheng Wei decided to use this place as a foothold.
