Chapter 518: Dams and River Flats
Hearing that his nephew wanted to contract the land, Zhou Dingguo's eyes lit up and continued: "You brothers, listen, if you want to say that the land in our Zhoujia Village is Haihai, except for the hills, soil buns, and river beaches of each family's own land, which are all additional and belong to the village.
But if you still have to grow food or something, you will rent it to you to build a greenhouse, and if there is a missing person, you will not be able to live? So, I thought if we could figure out a way to do it outside of our own land? ”
"Dad, I understand, you don't want Brother Ergou to pack another mountain, do you? But my second dog brother is engaged in high-tech, you said that if you cover the greenhouse in a place like Pheasant Ridge where rabbits don't poop, you will be responsible? And the road there is not passable, if there are a few more wild boars, bears, blind people or something, my second dog brother will have to lose everything. ”
"What are you kid doing there, who said I want him to contract the mountain? And what do you mean by this, I, who is an uncle, am trying to harm him? Mom, you get out of the way for me, I'm annoyed when I see you now. Zhou Dingbang said with a tiger face.
Zhou Hu didn't dare to continue to talk back, and pouted at Zhou Yu and said, "Brother Ergou, my dad wants me to get out, I'll get out now, you can talk to him yourself." If he doesn't get you a good piece of land, I'll go and find Taigong, I'm afraid he won't be afraid. ”
As soon as this kid finished speaking, his buttocks were intimately touched by a yellow rubber shoe, so he didn't dare to speak, so he ran away.
Zhou Yu couldn't help but smile and said: "Third uncle, don't be angry with Huzi, he hasn't seen you for a long time, you think you are panicked, so he is arguing with you, besides, how can you harm me?" I guess you must have something to do, right? ”
"Well, it's my nephew who knows me. Two dogs. The third uncle thinks so, you kid is getting more and more capable. Although we have to contract 50 acres of land today, how do we know that we will not be able to contract more land tomorrow and the day after tomorrow? If you only contract these fifty acres, you won't contract anymore in the future, and the third uncle will just fight for face, and if you don't want it, you have to get a good piece of land. But do you think it's possible? Why don't you kid do it all at once? ”
Zhou Yu nodded and gave Zhou Dingbang a thumbs up and said sincerely: "Third uncle, I really let you say it, dozens of acres of land are really not enough for me to play, so you have a good way?" ”
"There is a way, but you have to get some blood." Zhou Dingbang said with a smile.
"Third uncle, do you think I'm a reluctant person? Hurry up, I'm really curious. ”
"Okay, I won't tease you, all you want is the riverbank to satisfy you. Think about it. Our village was originally a long strip, how much land do you have along the banks of the Langgu River? If you don't have 3,000 acres, you have to have 2,000 acres, right? In the past, everyone didn't open up wasteland and farm there, but this Langgu River has a big water in three years, and a small water in a year, so that no one dares to plant, and it seems that your father has planted watermelons in the past three or five years, and I really haven't seen anyone harvest crops from there. ”
Zhou Yu gasped, the third uncle deserves to be the village party secretary, and his vision is much bigger than himself. Damn, two or three thousand acres of land, I never dreamed of playing so big?
After settling his mood, Zhou Yu asked with his teeth: "Third uncle, you are really my third uncle." Others are afraid of flooding, so I'm not afraid? Are you really a god? Hey, no, I said you didn't want me to build the dam, did you? Speaking of this, Zhou Yu felt a chill in his back. Insidious, Comrade Zhou Dingbang is too insidious.
"Hey, hey. You tell me? You can't take all of this benefit, right? In the past, when there was a heavy flood, not only the river beach, but also some of the self-reserved land in our village were flooded. If you can pay for the dam to be repaired and there will be no more floods, I can be the master now, and the river flats on both sides of the Langgu River are yours, and we can also sign a contract for you for 70 years, what do you think? Zhou Dingbang said in his hand.
Zhou Yu thought about it and felt a little headache, this decision is really not good, but two or three thousand acres of river beach land, if the dam is really repaired, it will be a thousand acres of fertile land, not to mention for himself, even for the sake of the village!
Thinking of this, Zhou Yu then asked: "Third uncle, how much does it cost to repair the dams on both sides?" I've lost about eight or nine million this morning, and I don't have much left. ”
"Mom, pull it, why do I feel a little dizzy? You kid burned money to play, and he went out of eight or nine million in one morning? You'll have to talk to me later.
As for repairing the dam, we have estimated it before, and the cost of materials plus engineering vehicles will cost 2 million, and as for manpower, you don't have to spend money, and some of the old men in our village will come to help.
Alas, if the dam can be repaired, everyone's hearts will be relaxed.
Child, don't you know the way, these two dams have always been the heart disease of our village, every year in the rainy season in August and September, everyone will not eat and sleep well, for fear that the dam will burst and flood the crops, but just worry about a fart? You have to come when you have to come.
We have had to repair the dam every autumn for many years, but after so many years, the dam has been damaged by insects and ants. At first, everyone also wanted to raise funds to repair it, but as soon as they heard that it would cost more than 2 million, they were all numb, where did we get so much money? So we can only watch the dam burst every year and the crops are flooded.
We also talked to the town and the water conservancy bureau about this, but our town grows crops and has no industry, so there is no money in the town. And the people from the Water Conservancy Bureau also said that if our dam leaks badly, they can't apply for money from Lu, so this matter has been consumed like this. But we can't afford to use energy.
Child, the third uncle is not cheating you, it stands to reason that you have done too much for our village, and the third uncle should not give you this idea again, but now you have the ability, so I will be cheeky and bring it up with you.
But don't worry, this money can't let you go out alone, didn't you give Huzi 800,000 last time, I donated 100,000 to the village committee, and there are 700,000 left, and I will vote for you all the 700,000. As long as the dam can be repaired, I will have a complete mind, and when Huzi gives me a grandson or granddaughter or something, I will unload this burden on my shoulders to you young people, I am old, and this thought cannot keep up. Let you young people lead the way. ”
Zhou Yu wanted to cry when he heard it, this is his third uncle. This is the old branch secretary of Zhoujia Village, this is an amiable and respectable person! In order to repair the dam in the village, he was willing to donate 700,000 yuan that had not yet been warmed. That's 700,000!
Holding back his tears, Zhou Yu said seriously: "Okay, third uncle, I took this job, don't worry about Huzi's 700,000 yuan, you have to keep it for him to marry his daughter-in-law."
Besides, it's more than 2 million, and I'll make it up. I'll call Brother Liu later, he has the engineering truck, and it seems that he has to do this work, if there are not enough people, he will find a way.
Also, I'll go get the money tomorrow. You and my dad took a few of my uncles to buy materials quickly, let's try to repair the dam before winter, this time no matter how much money is spent, the dam must be repaired with quality and quantity, and we must not be fooled. ”
"Hey, second dog, don't worry, with such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, if your third uncle can't repair the dam, he won't have to live. By the way, you hurry up and go to Xianyuwan with Huzi to bring your father and your eighth uncle back. Zhou Dingbang said excitedly.
"Well, what are my dad and my eighth uncle doing there?" Zhou Yu asked puzzled.
"What do you say? Looking at the fish? No, since you and Huzi put the dragon carp into Xianyu Bay, we can take turns to guard there. This is the hope of our village, and if anyone who does not open his eyes to catch some with fishing nets, it will be a big loss. So every day there are two people there to guard the fish. ”
Zhou Yu smiled bitterly. These fathers are so nervous, those dragon carp fry are only as long as they grow, what kind of net can catch them? However, he also understands the older generations such as his father and third uncle, and even if he persuades them, he probably won't listen. So without saying a word, I took Huzi and drove to Xianyu Bay.
More than half an hour later, the village committee of Zhoujia Village was full of people, and in addition to Zhou Dingbang and Accountant Zhang, the leaders of several other villager groups also came.
Zhou Dingbang took a breath and asked, "I'm done with everything, can you all tell me what you think?" ”
There was no movement for a minute. After two minutes, there was still no movement, and everyone's eyes were a little straight. I don't know what Lu Dao is thinking.
Zhou Dingbang was angry and shouted loudly: "Why did I say that you are all dumb? Why don't you speak? ”
This loud voice brought everyone's souls back. Accountant Zhang asked tremblingly: "Third brother, this is not a trivial matter, you are also a big boss, but don't make such a joke with us?" ”
"Lao Zhang, you fart, when did Lao Tzu make a joke in the village committee? This is true, I just discussed it with Ergouzi. I asked you to come here just to ask if they could pay for the dam and let us give him the river beach. After all, this is not my land alone, but our Zhoujia Village, so let's raise our hands to vote first, and then hold a villager meeting for collective voting after it is passed. ”
But to Zhou Dingbang's disappointment, no one paid attention to him at this time, and the dozens of years old men were all jumping and jumping, with tears on their faces, and even Lao Ba Zhou and Lao Zhang hugged each other tightly and cried.
Zhou Dingbang's tears also came down, once upon a time he and these brothers racked their brains to repair the dam, but the money was so limited that everyone now has to endure the ravages of the flood. Now God has finally opened his eyes, let Zhoujia Village come out with a second dog.
After these people finished venting, Zhou Dingbang asked again: "I said that none of you are ashamed, and people who are dozens of years old are still shameless when they jump and jump?" Okay, you also know about this, can we give this land to the second dog? ”
The gang stopped talking, but they just looked at him with a strange look, and Accountant Zhang said with a smile: "I said third brother, why are you going back more and more?" If you say this, would you still ask us? Did you immediately agree on the spot? Why are you so careful when you change it to two dogs? It's true that he is your nephew, but we are still his uncle and uncle, and our grandfather is no less than you in terms of feelings. So, don't be burdened.
Alas, this is also two dogs, if it were someone else, who would be willing to give us millions to build a dam? Not to mention those river flats that are just not able to grow crops, even good land is impossible for people to want. It's still the second dog, this kid is benevolent and righteous.
Third brother, I don't think it's going to be a villager meeting, it's just a superfluous move, let's hurry up and sign the contract with the child, won't he give us some money tomorrow? A few of us will go back and rush to manpower, and tomorrow we will use the money of the second dog to buy materials and strive to repair the dam as soon as possible. ”
Everyone nodded in unison, they couldn't sit still at this moment, and quickly got up and left one by one to go back to gather people.
That night, after Zhou Yu had dinner at home, he and his family came to the village committee, and signed a contract for the river beach land under the witness of the eight princes and the village committee, and the right to use the thousands of acres of river beach land will belong to Zhou Yu in the future, and Zhou Yu will also fund the repair of the dam.
After signing the contract, everyone was happy, and the eight princesses kept laughing happily, insisting that Zhou Hu go home and bring a jar of chrysanthemum wine, and each of them drank a bowl of celebration to celebrate. (To be continued......)
