Chapter 934: The Gu Family is Benevolent and Righteous
However, He Shanchuan's request is not too much.
The only difficult thing Chen Liang has also done, and then he can start building the road.
The next day, Chen Liang beat the gongs and drums 'bang bang' and gathered all the people in the village to the grain drying field.
He stood on the steps, met the curious and confused eyes of the villagers, coughed lightly and said, "I have summoned everyone here today because I have something to announce. ”
"What's the matter, it's so early in the morning, I'm freezing to death."
Chen Liang glared at the man and said, "Naturally, it's a good thing, if you're not happy, then go back and bake your fire." ”
"I just said a joke, uncle, don't mind." The man quickly changed his smile, and when he heard that it was a good thing, he immediately became excited, and he didn't feel cold, and urged him, "What a good thing, uncle, hurry up and talk about it." ”
Everyone also hurriedly asked him to say, and they also found out that not only Chen Liang, the village chief, was there on the barn field, but even the sixth master and a few of their old people were there.
This is unusual, what is the good thing that even they who have never liked to go out are here?
Chen Liang glanced around, and then said loudly, "Our village is going to build a road." ”
"What, build roads?"
There was an instant buzz and noise underneath, and they all began to talk to each other.
Someone couldn't help but ask, "Village chief, what's the matter with this road construction?" Did the yamen repair our village? Who's going to pay? ”
"yes, do we have to have one person from each family to work? Is there a salary? ”
"I won't go if I don't have a salary, our family has a lot of work."
The following ideas are different, and when it comes to building bridges, roads, and dams, the first thing that comes to mind is to serve in labor.
The first emperor was mediocre, and it was the common people below who suffered.
This term of the county magistrate is not bad, but the previous county magistrate is not a good person, and many people in their village were tired of serving in this labor back then.
Therefore, people are very resistant to building roads or something.
Chen Liang saw that the villagers' thoughts were crooked, and hurriedly said, "Let's be quiet first, be quiet, this road repair is not an order from the yamen, it is the benevolence of the Gu family, and the money to build a road for our village." ”
The barn was really quiet, and everyone looked at Gu Yundong who was standing not far from the village chief in disbelief.
Family...... Pay?
Everyone's eyes suddenly lit up, the Gu family paid for it, it was definitely not hard labor.
Hey, isn't that a good thing?
Someone asked eagerly, "Gu family girl, how to repair this road?" Can we fix it at our doorstep? Let me tell you, the road in front of our house is full of potholes, and when it rains, half of our shoes have to sink into it. ”
Gu Yundong glanced at the man, yo, isn't that the aunt who and pee in her carriage passing by the door of their house? You really have the face to say it.
But before she could say anything, someone immediately replied, "Is there anything to repair at your doorstep?" Didn't you listen to what the village chief said? Building a road, as narrow as your doorstep, what kind of avenue can it be? Unless your house is demolished. ”
"Why can't it be counted? Our family's road, which can also allow carriages to pass, often passes by the Gu family's girl's carriage. The road in our house is the main road in the village, and we can't leave anywhere to build it. ”
As she spoke, she was still a little proud.
"Gu girl, since you are so generous and benevolent, why don't you renovate the outer wall of our house by the way when you build the road."
Chen Liang frowned, a little regretful of what he had just said.
