Chapter 138: Build a road to the city

"Brother Xiaoshan, borrow me the gong!"

Early in the morning, Cheng Yangyang came down from the mountain with the drawings, the morning class of the school had just started, and the sound of reading came from the classroom.

She went from the end of the village to the entrance of the village, just a few small knocks, Wangjia Village is not like before, everyone is staying at home like before, there are many interesting things in the village, and everyone is willing to go out for a walk.

Seeing Cheng Yangyang holding the gong, everyone knew that she was going to have a meeting again, so they called the surrounding neighbors in groups of three or five, saving Cheng Yangyang from striking the gong again.

On the ridge of the paddy field at the entrance of the village, everyone found a place to sit by themselves, waited for everyone to gather, and listened to Cheng Yangyang talk about things.

"You guys, run faster!" Wang Dafei had already arrived, he waited for a while and began to be anxious, he beckoned to the people who came behind him, telling them to hurry up.

There are only two or three hundred people in the village, those who should go to school go to school, those who should go to the duck factory go to the duck factory, and those who are too old to stay at home, and the rest are only more than 50 of them, and they will come after a while.

"Okay, Cheng girl, everyone is almost here, if you have anything to say, just say it!"

Cheng Yangyang nodded, spread out the drawings in his hand and showed them, "I'm going to build the road." ”

Whether it is a duck factory, a vegetable field, or the 10,000 acres of crops, the harvest will begin in July and August, and she has a lot of things to transport out, and the two-step and one-pit road in Wangjia Village is impossible to bear, and she must repair the road before the watermelon harvest.

"Build a road?" the crowd was surprised, "which way?"

"This road from Wangjia Village to the city. ”

"To the city?" Wang Dafei thought he had heard it wrong, "Cheng girl, you are not confused, it is not the land of our Wangjia Village from the fork in the road." ”

If they can accept the fork in the road six or seven miles away, why should they still build it to the city? The road to the city passes through Chendong Village, Yanjia Village, and Zhuangjia Village.

"I know," Cheng Yangyang was sure he was right, "but when we go to the city, there is only one way to go, isn't it?

"But this is too cheap for people from other villages", other people in Wangjia Village were a little unwilling, obviously they were not the only ones who took this road, why should they repair it.

"In fact, we didn't take advantage of this road to build it, we have a few villages nearby, only our Wangjia Village and Liujia Village have ox carts, and other villages don't have ox carts, people will never break the road, right?"

Building roads is very important to Cheng Yangyang, she doesn't care how many people will benefit, anyway, they don't use it as much as her.

"That's right......"

Hearing her say this, everyone felt that it made sense, and they didn't want to go to the city anymore.

"Then what are you going to do? When are you going to fix it?"

"We can start today", Cheng Yangyang put away the drawings and pointed to the three small rivers around the village, "Today we will go to the river to pick sand to fill in the pits on the road, and then lay a layer of stones." ”

The conditions are limited, and it would be good to be able to pave a stone road, but many of the cities are still stone roads, except for the street at the Yamen.

"The work of building roads is hard, everyone has to work for 100 yuan a day, is this okay?" she asked for their opinion, and if they were too little, she could consider adding another 10 yuan.

"What's wrong with this, it's decided!"

They will not take the initiative to ask Cheng Yangyang for a price, because the price she gives is often more than the conscience of others, and if she helps others do such work, she may not earn as much as she gives.

Besides, half a year ago they were penniless and poor, but now they can have money in their hands, all thanks to her, how can they be embarrassed to ask her.

"I'll go home and get a dustpan, you wait", Wang Dafei turned around and went back, and when the others saw it, they all went home to get the guy.

Looking at the way they did their work without saying a word, Cheng Yangyang often wondered, is she quite scary, why no one occasionally questions her words?

But now is not the time to talk about this, she has to go back and return the gong, and then find a way to join them.

The summer wind blows through the seedlings in the field, causing a wave of green, and as you look at the green, you will find a group of men in gray and white coats walking towards you.

With a burden on their shoulders, they walked carefully and steadily on the path between the fields, their feet submerged in the green crops, as if floating in the green waves.

On the way from the creek to the village, they had to go around several ridges to get there, and the men brought sand and the women were responsible for paving the mud puddles on the road, and they cooperated with each other, and no one complained.

Cheng Yangyang mixed in it, filled a pit with a hoe and sand, and then stepped on it with his feet, until he did not sink before continuing to fill a pit.

It took her nearly five days to fill in all the potholes on the road.

When passing through other villages, people from other villages would come to see the excitement, and they had just planted their crops, and the fields were still the color of the earth, and the crops in the fields looked even more lifeless, just like their people.

"Wangjia Village, are you stupid to build the road here?" The people of Chen Dong Village and Yanjia Village got together and laughed at the people of Wangjia Village for being stupid and having a lot of money.

"How about it, aren't you happy to be cheap?" Wang Daqing said directly.

"How can you be unhappy, someone is willing to be a fool to build a road for us, who is not happy!"

"Hmph, we built this road to catch a car, which of you has a car?"

Their mouths are quite powerful, but Wang Daqing is not weak, as soon as he opens his mouth, he pokes directly at their weak points, without mercy.

"You!"

Those people were so stunned by Wang Daqing that they couldn't speak, they suddenly felt humiliated, and some of them were so angry that they directly used the hoe on their shoulders to dig the pit that Wang Daqing had just filled.

"I won't let you fix it!"

"What are you doing!" Wang Daqing watched the sand pit he had managed to fill up being dug up, and he was immediately angry.

Their voices attracted the attention of many people, and even Cheng Yangyang in the distance heard it, and she walked towards the noisy side.

Cheng Yangyang glanced at the sand pit that had been filled and dug up on the road, looked up at Wang Daqing and asked, "What happened?"

"They dug the sand pit I just filled, and they didn't let us build the road!"

"Don't let you build roads?" Cheng Yangyang is strange, she repairs roads for free, and there are still people who are not happy?

"Who won't let me repair?"

She looked at the few people in front of Wang Daqing, and suddenly became a little unhappy, because among the few people standing in front, there were several people with familiar faces from her.
