Chapter 27: Where Dreams Begin [Asking for Recommendations, Collections]
The car continued to drive for about half an hour, when a green carpet of wild grass began to appear on both sides of the road, and there were sparse groves swaying in the wind, but more of it was still with the dust raised by the car, and it was overwhelming that the windows could not be opened at all.
Even if the vegetables are planted here, this road transportation is also a ** annoyance, and the original vegetables that are smart and bright are transported out of the village I am afraid that the color has changed on them, and Gu Hongyu is no longer optimistic about this trip.
Secretary Gao observed Gu Hongyu's actions, saw that his expression was a little wrong, and explained again: "We are repairing this road every year, and now we plan to build all cement pavement, but there is still a lack of some funds, otherwise construction can start this autumn." ”
Okay, listening to Secretary Gao's complaint, Gu Hongyu still doesn't understand what he means, is this not clear to ask him to invest money to build roads, he hasn't decided to develop his career here, there is another expense in the early stage, Gu Hongyu is a little impulsive to let the driver turn around at this time.
However, the friendship between good buddies and classmates for several years prevented him from putting his ideas into action, and Peng Minghao said confidently: "Don't be depressed now, when you get to the ground, you will be startled by the scene in front of you, keep it and let it linger there." ”
is still nostalgic and forgets to return, and Gu Hongyu wants to go back before he reaches the ground.
After a while, the village appeared directly in front of the car, and on the edge of the desert, many families were clustered, and there were water sources near the clusters, and in the past, water sources determined the wealth of the people who lived in these places.
Along the way, Secretary Gao introduced the customs here, and these lands were very fertile a long time ago, but with the overgrazing and climate reasons, these lands are slowly becoming desertified.
Most of the villagers living in this mountain village were nomadic herders, but they were unable to provide more soil and pasture for cattle and sheep to survive, so these people slowly changed from grazing to farming, but each family still retained the tradition of sheep raising.
Gu Hongyu, a neighboring village, found that the village was very dilapidated, and many of the houses were built with local materials, and the raw materials were gravel and gravel, but after the erosion of wind, frost and rain, the walls began to peel off or expose holes.
There is not a single decent house in the village, and the best house in the village is that the roof is tightly covered, and the walls are not ventilated.
When the villagers heard the roar of the car engine, many people came out of the house to watch, and the dust raised by the car was just covering their faces with their clothes even if they were on the side of the road, and they were used to or numb to such a scene.
Gu Hongyu asked quietly: "This is what you just said scared me, well, now I am indeed scared." ”
Peng Minghao replied embarrassedly: "That's not what I'm talking about, the master continues to walk forward, and we won't settle down in the village, so as not to disturb the villagers." ”
"I'll see where you take me, I've repeatedly said that if the land is not suitable for growing vegetables, I don't care about buddy and classmates." Gu Hongyu stated again.
As soon as he finished speaking, a car in front of him stopped, Niu Ming and Mayor Li sat in another car and got off immediately, shaking the dust on their bodies, Niu Ming complained: "Ming Hao, I knew that this ghost place was like this, even if I spent money to invite me here, I won't do it!" ”
Mayor Li smiled when he heard Niu Ming's complaint, and Peng Minghao pointed directly in one direction and said, "I won't say more, just take a look along this hill." ”
The mountain is not big, Gu Hongyu and Niu Ming are eager to know why Peng Minghao has so much confidence to make people believe that this is a good place, so they rushed to the top as fast as possible, and then a slightly turbulent lake appeared in front of them.
"Damn, it's unbelievable that there is such a big lake in this place where there is a desert on all sides." Niu Ming sighed dumbfounded.
Gu Hongyu is no better, the lake in front of them is very large, with the naked eye can not see the boundary at a glance, the lake side of the lake is rippling with reeds, the shore of the lake is green, and there are all kinds of small birds circling and flying on the surface of the lake in the sky.
Not to mention the lake, the blue waves ripple blue, like a mirror imprinted in the desert, or more should be called a pearl.
"How about it, Hongyu, I didn't lie to you, can this place still be in your eyes?" Peng Minghao still looked smiling, and the two town leaders who followed behind him also smiled and said nothing, it seemed that he was sure to eat Gu Hongyu.
"How big is this big lake, how can you live in the village since there is this lake, this contrast is really too big!" Gu Hongyu said the doubts hanging in his heart.
"I'll explain that." Secretary Gao interjected at this time: "The government should also bear part of the reason in this regard, first, it is too remote here, even if you find investors, you will hear that you will start to invest a large part of the funds to build infrastructure, and secondly, there are powerful companies that have taken a fancy to this place, but the opinions in the village are too different, and in the end it still doesn't work, which has been delayed." ”
When Mayor Li saw Gu Hongyu, they listened attentively and immediately added: "This big lake covers an area of about 6 square kilometers, the longest part of the lake is about 3.4 kilometers long, and the widest is 2.2 kilometers, and such lakes are at least among the top ten in the entire county. ”
"So what do I have to do to contract this great lake and the land nearby?" Gu Hongyu has changed his previous thoughts now, and he does have the idea of starting a business here.
However, many things need to be negotiated with the town, such as road hardening, the procurement and installation of vegetable planting pipelines, and the construction of greenhouses in the future to hire labor, etc., which is a very nerve-wracking thing, no wonder some people say that everything is difficult at the beginning.
Hearing Gu Hongyu's question, the town leaders and Peng Minghao smiled even more, and Secretary Gao held back his smile and said seriously: "If you want to contract this big lake and the nearby land, it's actually very simple, we can do it completely free." ”
"It's free, didn't you just say that you have to agree to the request made by the village?" Gu Hongyu was shocked.
Peng Minghao said with a smile on the side: "This is not contradictory, our town can contract you for free, but you must agree to the requirements of the village!" ”
Secretary Gao continued to explain when he saw that Gu Hongyu was still confused: "Because we are located here in a remote area and the conditions are backward, the town has a preferential policy, and investors who contract here can enjoy the policy of free contracting fees for the first year. The conditions in the village are actually not difficult, many of them are collective land, and they want to use the land to invest in the farm or company you will establish in the future; Second, when recruiting employees, they give priority to placement; The third is that once the contract cannot be abandoned halfway, the contract is 50 years, and the contract payment is negotiated according to the situation every year, but at least five years at a time. ”
"Many investors are discouraged by these, and I don't think it is difficult to complete these conditions!" Niu Ming finished admiring the lake and mountains, and then suddenly interjected and said.
The corners of Mayor Li's mouth twitched a few times, and he thought to himself: It's not difficult, such a remote place is still in the desert, who can guess the risk of decades of changes, and now investors only look at the immediate benefits, and the initial investment in building roads and farms is very large, so that projects with long and slow results are not favored.
Second, investors who understand the situation will know that the people here are strong, and they are not sure that no one dares to invest here, and the poor mountains and bad waters will not really talk about it, and only a stupid and bold person like Niu Ming dares to say what he just said.
But no one will know, these things are not a matter for Gu Hongyu at all, what can be done with a contract of several decades, with the immortal source space he has, it is not a problem at all, the people are strong, hehe, first of all, if you are not convinced, you will suppress it by force, he still doesn't believe that an ordinary person can do it himself.
Well, all the difficulties are temporary, Gu Hongyu decided to start a business here, and this is where his dream began!
