Chapter 1 Targeted Poverty Alleviation
"Demons?
Is Wei Chengmo at home? ”
A loud voice pierced the old courtyard.
In the north room of the courtyard, Wei Chengmo and his sister, and his mother Wang Xiuhe's family of three were eating, and they glanced at their mother, Wei Chengmo stood up and said, "Mom, I'll go out and take a look, it's the village chief shouting." ”
Wang Xiuhe put down his chopsticks and stopped the bangs mixed with a few white silk in front of him, "Go quickly, don't let your seventh uncle wait in a hurry." ”
Wei Chengmo was wearing a washed camouflage vest, and when he went out, he saw a middle-aged man in a sweatshirt, standing at the door and looking at his house, "Uncle Seven, come in, my mother's stewed noodles have just come out of the pot." ”
"Alas! Become a demon, I won't go in, where do I still have some tiles, you go back and pull it over, and replace the broken tiles on the roof. “
"Thank you, Uncle Seven, I have laid plastic paper under the broken tile, and it doesn't leak rain now."
"Oh, that's good, I'll talk to you about something, don't you kid want me to help you guarantee the loan?"
Wei Chengmo's sword eyebrows moved, a pair of Danfeng eyes almost narrowed into a line, his face was happy, his tall body was slightly bent, he took out a box of cigarettes from his pocket, and took out one for the village chief to light it.
"Yes, Uncle Seven, did the credit union agree to give me a loan?"
The village chief waved his hand, "That's not true, it said that it was for three joint guarantees." ”
Wei Chengmo's mood fell, and his eyes waited for the village chief's next words without blinking.
The village chief squinted his eyes, took a deep puff of cigarette intoxicated, spit out a swirling smoke ring in his mouth, and showed a smile in his eyes, "Targeted poverty alleviation has come down, this time your family is eligible, there is an interest-free loan of 50,000 yuan, hehehe......"
The village chief smiled smugly, grinning and revealing a few large yellow teeth, and stretched out his big hand like dead tree bark, "Give me the cigarette, you kid doesn't smoke, you don't learn well for a day, and you're ruined." ”
Wei Chengmo could not take care of the 2 yuan golden monkey at this time, and immediately handed it over. With a shy face, he asked nervously, "Uncle Seven, did you report to my family this time?" ”
The village chief stuffed the cigarette case into his pocket, patted his pocket, stared at Wei Chengmo and said with some seriousness, "Your seventh uncle, I will do things according to the rules, the review is over, and the card has been filed, and it is estimated that the money will be on your credit union card tomorrow and the day after tomorrow."
You kid is a veteran or a party member, you can't do things that are too good to be high-minded and spend money randomly.
Now the state still has a subsidy policy for farmers, you must do a good job, how much this subsidy can also reduce some costs, isn't it? In addition, the state also subsidizes materials for building cowsheds. ”
Wei Chengmo scratched his hair and said excitedly, "Seventh Uncle, thank you so much, now that the big thing has been solved, what will happen to the materials for building the cowshed?" Do you think I can report two more? ”
The village chief glared at Wei Chengmo with a smile, "You kid thinks too much, the policy stipulates that a family can only report one cowshed, besides, can you be busy building so much?" ”
Wei Chengmo's chest slapped, and he turned his face up and said, "Seventh Uncle, don't you look down on people?" I'm young, I'm not afraid, take advantage of the policy, build the shed first, you can talk about the materials, right? ”
The village chief took a puff of cigarette, "The materials will arrive the day after tomorrow, you can decide where to build it and point to a location, there will be a special person to build it, just pay 800 yuan for a household, and don't worry about the rest."
The saline-alkali land by the river, the village also agreed to contract to you, 10 acres of barren beach 500 yuan a year contract fee, I will go to where I will sign the contract early. ”
Seeing off the village chief, Wei Chengmo clenched his fists excitedly and rushed towards the house, and the two swallows under the old eaves flew up in fright, chattering over the roof.
Wang Xiuhe saw that his son, who had always been steady, would have some mood swings, and couldn't help asking, "Become a demon, what's wrong?" What did your seventh uncle say? ”
The boss of Wei Chengmo's cracked mouth showed a mouthful of white teeth, and smirked, "Hey, hey, Mom, the government has an interest-free loan of 50,000 yuan for poverty alleviation, and I don't have to ask Lao Zhang of the credit union again this time." ”
Wang Xiuyi listened, froze, wiped the corners of his eyes for a while, frowned and said, "Credit union...... Loan?
Targeted poverty alleviation? I've heard it for a long time, and your seventh uncle has finally done a personal service.
In the years since your father died, there was a little harvest in the field, and those who asked for accounts came to the door, and you and Xiaoxiao were so thin in those years that the family had no money to make up for nutrition.
Several other surnames in the village can be stained with the light of poverty alleviation every year, but our old Wei family wants to avoid suspicion, and not a single chicken feather will come. ”
Wei Chengmo's eyelids collapsed, and he rubbed his sister's little head, "Xiaoxiao, eat your meal." ”
Wei Xiaoxiao snorted lightly, rolled her eyes and knocked her brother's hand off. "Mom, why is our family so poor?"
Wang Xiuhe sighed, "Five years ago, that is, in 2010, you were only three years old, and your father learned from others to contract projects and wanted to make some money, but he didn't earn the money, but he fell off the elevated highway and took his life, and he owed 100,000 foreign debts."
Your brother later dropped out of school to join the army, and last year he brought back 60,000 yuan in recovery fees, plus the family's income from farming, and the arrears were repaid, which also made my mother breathe a sigh of relief. ”
Wei Chengmo looked at his mother's gray hair when she was only 40 years old, and her once beautiful face was now full of vicissitudes, and he felt a little sad, "Mom, everything is over, I am also 20 years old this year, and I will support my family in the future." ”
Wang Xiuhe stared at his son's tanned face, and was very distressed in his heart, but he still said with a straight face, "Chengmo, now that you have grown up, the other mothers don't care, it's up to you to toss, but the building is absolutely not allowed to go, do you hear?" Definitely can't go ......."
"Knowing Mom, I'm never going to build in my life, okay?
My seventh uncle said that the saline-alkali land on the river beach was also contracted to our family, so I went to sign the contract first, so as to save any other troubles."
Wei Chengmo took the water cup and poured it, and walked towards the door as he spoke, and his mother's shout came from behind him.
"You go to the commissary and buy 10 yuan a pound of tea for your seventh uncle to bring, don't let people say that you don't know how to be polite."
Wei Chengmo's feet froze, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he turned back to the house and said with difficulty, "Mom, isn't the 10 yuan tea powder a bit too much?" ”
A mother's helpless voice came from the house, "Who told you to buy tea powder?" 8 pieces of one-pound large-leaf tea, the quality is very good, just buy half a catty. ”
First went to the village commissary to buy half a catty of tea, the floating soil on the dirt road was half a foot deep, plop, plop, Wei Chengmo stomped step by step to the village chief's house.
The flying dust hit the trouser leg of the Liu family's uncle who came back from herding the sheep, and the old man smiled at Wei Chengmo, his mouth bulging with muttering.
"Gua Wazi, is it stupid to be a soldier? Don't be too panicked!
Alas! I heard that there is going to be a cement road connecting every village! I don't know what will be our turn in this ravine......"
Wei Chengmo's face burned, and he hurriedly left.
The July sun hurts my shoulders, and the acquaintances on the trees scream desperately, which makes people upset.
The mountainous area in southern Ningxia has always been a place with little rain, and Wei Chengmo's home is in Weijia Village, Daping Township, Xiji County.
Wei Chengmo used his left hand to build a pergola on his forehead, squinted his eyes and glanced at the sky, his eyes rolled, looking at a string of black bracelets on his wrists, one of which was a green bead embedded in a metal mesh, exuding a green luster through the gaps, delicate.
"Hehe, if it doesn't rain again, the crops planted by others may die of drought, but our alfalfa is very drought resistant."
Now many people in the village have moved to the city, and the land is barren, as long as you say hello to the master's family, the land will be planted by the villagers. Wei Chengmo planted 100 acres of alfalfa in one go.
The village chief's house has no yard, only a row of 4 red brick houses, Li Chen approached, and saw that under the shade of a big banyan tree, Uncle Seven was like the landlord Lao Cai, lying on a rocking chair to enjoy the shade.
On the small stool next to her, Aunt Seven was sitting there holding a tooth of watermelon and eating.
Seeing Wei Chengmo coming, he hurriedly stood up and greeted, "Chengmo, you are here, why are you still carrying things?" Sit down and taste the watermelon that the judge just killed. ”
The village chief raised his eyelids, glanced at the tea in Wei Chengmo's hand, and said angrily, "You kid can't be authentic, just take 4 yuan of tea to fool uncle?" The contract is on the table in the room, you go and get it and sign it. ”
Wei Chengmo smiled embarrassedly. Take out a tooth of watermelon from the basin on the ground, take a bite, and say vaguely, "cool". He walked towards the house.
Entering the house, Wei Chengmo put the tea directly on the table of the Eight Immortals. Pick up two handwritten contracts and start to read them carefully, "The contract period is 5 years, and the contract fee is paid once a year." ”
After reading it, he thought about it, and added a sentence, "When the contract expires, under the same conditions, Wei Chengmo has the right of priority to contract." ”
signed, took the contract to the courtyard and handed it to the village chief. "Uncle Seven, take a look, if you can, it's done, and I'll transfer the contract fee directly to you now."
The village chief got up and glanced at the contract, pointed at Wei Chengmo and scolded with a smile, "Just your kid's brain, that broken beach, as if someone would rob you."
It's done, you can use the money, and the receipts will be typed for you. ”
Wei Chengmo took out his mobile phone and transferred 500 yuan to the village chief, and saw the village chief take out a crumpled piece of paper from his pocket and hand it over, "The contract, keep the receipt, you sit down and we will talk." ”
Wei Chengmo folded the contract and put it in his trouser pocket, smiled at Aunt Qi, and found a wooden pier to sit down.
The village chief took out the golden snub-nosed monkey that Wei Chengmo had honored and lit one. After thinking about it for a while, he said, "I know that your kid has ideas, and he planted hundreds of acres of alfalfa in the spring, you tell your uncle about your plans, and I will report to the township, otherwise whether you can get that subsidy or not." ”
Wei Chengmo brushed his thoughts, "Seventh uncle, I plan to raise cattle first, my comrade-in-arms' family has a large cattle farm in Zhangye, his Simmental cattle, calves weighing more than 200 catties, promised 2,500 yuan a head, give me 30 heads on credit." ”
"Cheng, the price of a pound on the market is about 17 yuan, and your comrades-in-arms take good care of you.
Other people's crops are dying, and the alfalfa you planted is almost half a man tall, maybe this cow will really let you raise it successfully.
Pay attention to yourself, as soon as the alfalfa flowers bloom, it is the time to mow the grass, and you must not delay it for too long. ”
Wei Chengmo smiled and didn't mention the matter of pasture, "Uncle Seven, I know this, I have already borrowed a small lawn mower."
I'll go to the beach and lime the place where the cowshed will be built. ”
After speaking, Wei Chengmo didn't care about the hot weather, he got up and left directly, the day was full of harvest, and his heart was full of energy.
Watching Wei Chengmo leave, Aunt Qi sighed and said, "His father, Xiuhe has an opinion about you." ”
"I know, but that can't be helped! The people in the village and the countryside all know that my brother has worked as a contract foreman, and no one believes that her poor family can't even open the pot!
I don't know how many times I've applied, but no one has relented, this time the demon wants a loan, the credit union's Lao Zhang doesn't agree, and I don't know who my dead brother offended......
Pity a family of orphans and widows, fortunately Cheng Demon grew up, and brought back a demobilization fee from the army. ”。
"Hmph, I see that they are all kicking and pretending to be confused, Xiuhe, who is just 40 years old, has gray hair, and they are all blind and can't see!" Aunt Qi took a bite of the watermelon and said fiercely.
"You're right, the number of places for poverty alleviation is limited, which one doesn't want to earn for their relatives? Besides, isn't there something else going on in there......"
