Chapter 121: To go or to stay
"Yes, for the sake of a better tomorrow for our township, for the villagers to live a good life. I think the more people like you husband and wife, the better! Not only did I earn money outside, but I also learned the skills. When I come back in the future, it will have a great effect on our township! The township chief continued.
Li Meiling thought that the township chief wanted to keep her and encourage her to continue to start a business at home. As soon as I heard the word "future", I knew that the matter of returning to my hometown would be a topic for a long time with the township chief. Could it be that the township chief came to her again and again just to encourage her? Li Meiling was a little confused.
"My husband Li Li is preparing to open a factory there, but I don't know how it is going. Do you mean to let him go back to the village and open a factory? Li Meiling thought it might be more likely to let Li Li come back!
"Economic development is a big issue that takes a long time and a lot of effort on the part of many people. What I mean, it is not wise for you husband and wife to come back at this stage, and it is also very detrimental to the future development of our township. Take your garment processing factory as an example, the garment processing and inspection work you are engaged in now is very suitable for the development direction of our township in the future. We think we need technical talents like you, and if there are more talents like you, won't we have a solid foundation for our own business? The township chief began to speak at length again.
"That township chief, do you mean you still want me to go back to work?" Li Meiling somewhat understood what the township chief meant.
"I want to, this time it's not just you, you can see if you can lead everyone to go together, go to more people, so that they can learn more things and earn more skills like you husband and wife." The township chief was very excited.
"I can't do this now, I just started in that clothing company, which means that I just started in that industry. My husband Li Li's electrical repair factory is also just starting, and he is busy with this matter before he comes back for the New Year. But I think if he really needs someone, he will also consider our villagers. I'm keeping an eye on you over there, and if there's any good job that needs manpower, I'll report back to you in a timely manner. Li Meiling thought that if she didn't give the township mayor some hope today, it seemed that his report would be endless.
"Oh, what a good comrade who helped our township's economy take off! By the way, there is another thing, for your assistance in the township to receive foreign guests, our township has decided to reward you with fifty yuan. You can go to the finance to get it in a while, don't be too little about this money, our township funds are still relatively tight, agricultural township, can only change the current economic pattern, we can move towards the fast lane of economic development, in order to ,,,"
"Then thank you leader, I don't want the money, and the material you gave me about our township, I also brought it, see if you still need it?" The old mother took out the tightly wrapped materials and handed them to the township chief.
"Well, I think you can keep it as a souvenir! We will not take back this material. You must take that money, this is the unanimous decision of our township leadership team. "The township chief's spark is still so level.
"Okay, okay. Then I won't delay the leader's time, can I go and get the money? ”
Li Meiling thought to herself that it was better to leave here quickly, since her doubts had been solved, there was no need to stay here any longer. Li Meiling thinks that this leader's idea is still good, but it is just a good idea. Li Meiling did not agree with some of the township chief's views on economic development, and she felt that as long as she could earn money, it would be fine. Instead of doing those illusory things, it is better to get green vegetables right, so that it will be more effective. In fact, just as his mother Li Meiling thought, Zhang Changzhi's later success verified his mother's original idea of the economic development model of Xiangyang Township. In fact, it is more reliable for areas rich in agricultural resources to develop their own advantages.
Later, the scenic area around the dripping view was also launched, and the benefits were certainly not much better. Tourism has not developed, but Gu Changfeng has developed. A few years later, this then bad Taoist priest became the head of the Long Wind Dao. Life is so bizarre, who knows where who's going to go next!
Li Meiling didn't have her own handpoke, so she could only go to the township finance to press her handprint, and then received the labor fee she had worked hard for more than half a month. Holding the five pieces of ten yuan that were a little wrinkled, Li Meiling had an indescribable emotion in her heart. The eldest sister in the finance room was very excited to see her, and said that she watched her explain those ice sculptures to foreigners that day, and thought she was an expert in a foreign language! They chatted for a while, and when they saw that someone came in to do something, Li Meiling took the opportunity to leave the finance room.
Anyway, Li Meiling feels that she is a farmer, and she has no ambitions, if it is really like what the township chief said, it will be a good choice for her husband Li Li to come back to start a business in the future. But at that time, will Li Li still be his husband?
Li Meiling believes that with her appearance, even if she divorces her husband Li Li, even if she has a child, it will not be a problem to find another man to live with her. But if you want to make a foreigner, or the owner of a leading local garment company, like her, she won't believe it. She really didn't mean to look down on rural women, such a gap is really too big. Li Meiling knew that Lin Guofei came this time, mainly for her. Lin Guofei didn't notify her in advance, and he didn't say goodbye to her afterwards, as if they met inadvertently.
This kind of encounter is what Lin Guofei wants, and he has fantasized countless times about meeting Sister Lin who thinks about it day and night in this way. This encounter between him and Li Meiling is in line with his imagination countless times. Li Meiling's words and deeds, smiles and smiles are all like that at first sight for Lin Guofei. Every time they communicate, of course, the main thing is the introduction and explanation of Lin Guofei's minor Li Meiling, which coincides so much. Although Lin Guofei didn't know Li Meiling's information, it didn't affect his ability to guess Li Meiling's thoughts and some of the things he wanted to say. That time made him feel that he could have such a tacit understanding with a person, so that the other members wondered if Lin Guofei had accepted some benefits, otherwise how could he guide everyone to this distant place so hard.
Li Meiling looked at the time, and got on the bus back to the county without bothering to have lunch, she planned to go back to her home in Hengyuan County. She didn't bother to greet Liu Quanbao, otherwise Liu Quanbao would definitely keep him for dinner.
There were very few people in the car, one who drove and one who sold tickets. The ticket price wasn't as expensive as it is now, I think it was like five cents, a price point for my favorite cream popsicle.
"Huh? What the hell is you, I saw you the other day! The conductor was a little surprised.
"You've seen me, how could it be? I, I don't seem to know you, huh? ”
"It's the Lantern Festival, you are with the foreigner of the inspection group, what's wrong with the investment promotion?" The conductor continued her curiosity.
"You mean to attract investment, what can I know about a farmer! Those are the things of the leaders and decision-makers, I just introduced the advantages of our township to those foreign guests, as well as tourism resources, and some things related to green agriculture. "Li Meiling is still a little uncomfortable with being concerned.
"I've never seen a peasant like you, so don't be modest! I don't ask you to do anything. Not to mention, it's really not hard for you to communicate with those foreigners, my child is in junior high school, and he also learns foreign languages, so I asked him to come forward and listen to what you said, this kid told me that he didn't understand anything, hahaha. "The conductor is familiar with herself, and she chats endlessly with Li Meiling.
"Maybe your son is a son, right? Maybe your child doesn't have much oral communication! There is still a process for this oral exercise, I feel that it is still very important to speak English, and it is a little uncomfortable to convert the sentences, words, and other things you know into your own language. I was a little uncomfortable when I started learning, but I was exposed to a good language environment, everyone was together, and we all tried to communicate in English, which was very helpful for listening and speaking. When it comes to the English that Li Meiling likes, she unconsciously talks more.
"We don't have that locale you are talking about! No wonder the kids don't understand what you're saying. So where did you learn? If I have the chance, I will let the child go to school, and I will ask you to help me when the time comes. The conductor said.
"I studied in the south, and my husband went to work in the south, so I followed. I don't have much to do over there, I don't have much else to do other than cook for her. I signed up for an English class. Li Meiling thinks that she really has nothing to do to learn English.
"I mean, I can't create this environment for my son. I don't have that ability! What does your husband do in the South? Is it easy to make money over there? "The conductor's interest shifted from English to her husband.
"I don't think it's easy to make money over there, and people's hearts are still much more complicated than here. But there are more employment opportunities there than here, as long as you have the ability and are willing to work, the income will definitely be no less than here. ”
"Oh, that's all I have for the rest of my life, let's see if my son can get out! When the time comes, if my son is admitted to college, I will let him go to his Aunt Li! Your surname is Li, right? My surname is Wang. The conductor said.
"No problem, you can't do anything else, it's okay to invite him to dinner every once in a while. As long as it is within my ability, he Aunt Li and I can still do it. Li Meiling said very truthfully.
"Okay, that's it! Maybe I'll go with him then! Just don't bother me then! The conductor spoke in a flattering tone.
"No, no."
Li Meiling replied politely.
