Chapter 106: Building Roads
As soon as these words came out, the villagers all applauded, and almost no one disagreed.
"I think so, the broken road in the village can't be walked on a rainy day."
"It's just that it's inconvenient for me to go to town every time, and it would be better if I could fix the road."
Most of the villagers are looking forward to a good road, but it is really expensive to build the road, and if they are asked to pay for it, they are afraid that they will not be able to afford it.
Tong Shan said, "I know that everyone wants to have a good road in the village, so that it will be convenient to go to the town in the future." Regarding money, you don't have to worry, Xue Yatou said that she would bear it with all her might. ”
Everyone was surprised to hear that it was Tong Chuxue who paid the money, it seemed that Tong Chuxue had earned far more money than they imagined.
However, Tong Chuxue has money and is willing to take it out to repair roads in the village, which can be said to be enough selfless dedication.
"As we all know, this road construction not only costs money, but also contributes to it. I called everyone together today just to ask how many people can be sent out of each household to repair the road, and how long they can work in a day, so that I can make statistical arrangements. "Tong Shan Road.
I only heard someone below ask, "Lizheng, what does this mean, do you want us to leave?" ”
Tong Shan nodded, "This money is out of the snow girl, and it is fair for each family to come out, anyway, it is all for the village." ”
"It's not appropriate to say that, Xue Ya is so rich, why don't you just find someone to do it." That's humane.
Tong Shan thought that this would be a good thing for all families to sign up, but he didn't expect someone to shirk it, and he was immediately a little angry, "The snow girl's money, after buying the stone for paving, is almost the same, and the village didn't let you pay, do you have to consider selling your strength." The road has been repaired, and it is convenient for our entire Qingshan Village, not any one family. ”
"This is a person, Li Zheng, you also know, now is the time to be busy with farming, we all have to take care of the rice in the field, if we all go to build roads, what will happen to the fields?"
Tong Shan held back his anger, "So I just asked you just now, how many people can be produced in each family, how much work can be done, and I will arrange it according to everyone's situation." ”
"Oh." The man should not be unwilling, "Then there is no one in my family." ”
Tong Shan's eyes widened, as if he didn't expect that building a road was such a harmless thing, but he was rejected by the villagers, "What do you mean, the village wants to build roads, and every household should have people, do you think that this road is for me to build alone?" ”
Someone in the crowd said, "Isn't Tong Chuxue rich, the house has been built with tiled houses, let her hire someone to repair it, we must all miss her for her goodness." ”
"That's it, that's it."
There is no shortage of echoing voices among the crowd.
"You guys are hopeless!" Tong Shan was extremely angry, he and Tong Chuxue studied for a long time how to arrange time and how to plan the progress, and now everything has taken shape, as long as everyone is outstanding, I didn't expect everyone to be unwilling.
"Lizheng, if you want me to say, the road construction is definitely a good thing, but you also know the situation in the village, we farmers point to a few plots of land all year round to live, what if we delay planting. This Tong Chuxue paid for the construction of the road, is it us who is cheap, not herself. A woman said.
"The road is repaired, and it is convenient for everyone to go to the town, how can it be said that it is just convenient for the snow girl." Tong Shan felt that this group of people had simply been kidnapped by fallacies.
"It's not for her own sake, which family will run to the town every day, which family has a carriage to walk on a good road." As the woman spoke, her tone became yin and yang.
At this time, some villagers around who were not assertive were also led astray by the women's words.
Yes, they don't go to town a few times a year, and they only go there during the holidays to buy something important.
Even if this road is repaired, they can't actually go a few times, but it's different for Tong Chuxue, Tong Chuxue's house has a carriage, and she can go if she wants.
Besides, the people in each family are different, some have fewer people, some have more people, those with more people do more, those with fewer people work less, and they don't have any wages, and the roads are also shared by everyone, why?
Everyone below had their own careful thoughts, and there was more scrutiny in their eyes when they looked at Tong Chuxue.
Tong Chuxue saw that the situation was at an impasse, and unhurriedly attached to Tong Shan's ear, "Uncle Lizheng, it seems that everyone hasn't figured it out today, I think it's better to disband it first and let everyone go back and think about it." ”
Tong Shan was a little hesitant, now that the wind direction in the village has obviously been deviated, if everyone is still allowed to go back, wouldn't the matter of building the road be stillborn.
Tong Chuxue was not worried, "Uncle Lizheng, it's normal for everyone to not figure out this kind of thing for a while, you just need to go back and wait, maybe everyone will change their minds after a while." ”
Although Tong Shan didn't understand what medicine was sold in Tong Chuxue's gourd, since she had said so, Tong Shan reluctantly announced that today's villagers' meeting was over, and the matter of building the road would be discussed later.
And with the villagers scattering, it was Tong Shan's sigh, he didn't understand, how could such a good thing come to this situation.
Tong Chuxue understands very well that everyone just thinks that Tong Chuxue should give all the money and settle everything if he has money.
What everyone said sounded good, the village needed a good road, but when everyone really wanted to pay, they all hesitated, and then some people in the village were involved, even if they hesitated, they became disagreeing.
Today's scene is unexpected and reasonable for Tong Chuxue.
Tong Chuxue returned home, Xu Jinniang was very complaining about this, "You said, this is obviously a good thing to build a road for the village, but let them contribute, why don't they agree one by one, we have money, but it's not what we should do, it's really not good, this road won't be repaired, anyway, it's convenient for us to go out now." ”
But Tong Chuxue didn't see it that way, the old man who was frozen to death in the winter left a deep impression on him, and only when the collective became rich and everyone's living standards improved, such a tragedy could be avoided.
It was not her Virgin, but she felt that she had come to the peaceful Qingshan Village from the last days of the war, and God had given her a chance to be reborn, and she had to take the corresponding responsibility.
Just like when she took Xu Jinniang with her, what she has to do now is to bring the people of Qingshan Village to become rich.
"Mother, don't worry, everyone will definitely change their minds." Tong Chuxue said, "In fact, whether the road is built for me or for the village, everyone can figure it out when they calm down, but today they were just taken away by a few people." ”
"Chu Xue, my mother knows that you are for the good of the village, but now the people in the village don't appreciate it, so it's really not okay." Xu Jinniang really couldn't see Tong Chuxue so misunderstood.
"Mother, building roads is also good for us." Tong Chuxue comforted Xu Jinniang, "Don't they all say that after people have money, they have to help others, the so-called family of goodness, there must be Yu Qing, we are doing good deeds now, and we will definitely be able to make more money in the future." ”
"You, don't you think you have enough money?" Xu Jinniang shook her head, she didn't believe in doing good deeds, there were thousands of taels of silver in the family now, but she couldn't spend it in ten lifetimes, where did she need to make more money.
