Chapter 172: How to Become a Village Chief and Give Gifts to Others (2nd Update)

"I still have some things I want to discuss with you, and I want to hear your opinions." Jiang Zhi spoke again after everyone had finished discussing the construction of the wall and the water gully.

I know that Jiang Zhi is going to talk about the main point of our discussion between the couple last night, and the main purpose of our invitation is to hear everyone's opinions and opinions on this matter.

Everyone looked at the Jiang family and waited for him to continue.

"Everyone knows that Chen Cuihua's mother and son came to our house two days ago." Jiang Zhi started with the gossip that everyone knows and introduces the topic.

"I know, I heard that I came to give you a gift, did you accept it?" Chen Hao deliberately pretended to be curious and asked, in fact, everyone knows from the rumors, Chen Cuihua's mother and son came to give us gifts, taking low-grade liquor, with the living conditions of our family, it is so possible to see, Chen Cuihua went around saying that we disliked the courtesy. Chen Hao asked now, just to tease Jiang Zhi.

"I am the village chief of Tashan Village, how can I also be an official, how can I accept bribes from the people." Jiang Zhi replied solemnly, making everyone present laugh.

"You can get it, Chen Cuihua said it, you thought her gift was too light, so you threw them out with people." Liu Yujun said while laughing.

"Uncle, big brothers, I really can't bear to do the two bottles of green* cars she carried." Jiang Zhi said with a sad face.

"Hahaha......" Jiang Zhi's performance made the older Zhang Tou and a few of them laugh, and the younger ones even laughed back and forth.

Uncle Zhang smiled and asked, "Are they here for the 17 acres of paddy fields in Lao Lujia Province?" ”

"Yes, that's what I'm here for." Jiang Zhi recovered his serious look.

"And what do you say?"

"What's going on with this land. It wasn't her turn to ask for it, so I didn't say yes. But then I thought about it, and the land was there. It's impossible not to plant rice, it's too wasteful, but I can't find a suitable candidate for planting, no matter who I give this land to, there will be people who are not happy, and they will think in their hearts, why don't you give it to me. So I thought. No one will give these paddy fields, how about counting them as the common property of the village? Jiang Zhi told us the method we had discussed.

"Count the village, then who will plant it?" The sister-in-law was a little puzzled by what Jiang Zhi said.

"We can wait until the beginning of spring next year. Hire people from the village to plant, find a few old styles, and the planting will be finished in a few days, and we can pay the wages by the day. It's like our personal hire. Give 30 catties of rice a day, and it is the same in normal times, you can take care of the family with little land, and then our village will produce grain. Jiang Zhi said.

"If these lands are served well, they may produce thousands of catties of grain, according to your calculations, a thousand catties is enough to spend when you plant them in normal times, and the rest ......" Lao Zhangfa asked. After asking, he may also feel that he doesn't believe Jiang Zhi by asking this question. Worried that he was embezzling, he explained: "People are like this. If no one grows this land, everyone may not have any ideas, at most it will feel wasteful, but if this land has food and piles it there, making them greedy, then someone has to have an idea. ”

"Haha, Uncle Zhang, I've thought of all this, and I definitely can't let these grains be left like this. A few days ago, when I watched Sun Jun's family kill pigs, the children in our village were happy to catch up with the New Year. For more than a year, most of the people in our village have basically never seen oily at home, and this kind of diet is not conducive to the growth of children and the health of the elderly, so I want to open a piece of land in the village next year, open a pig farm, raise more pigs, count the village, and when it snows in winter, kill the pigs, and then the pork can be saved, and the village will have a good year. ”

"This idea is very good, our child is really hungry for meat, my child's meat-eating tiger's eye, I still remember it, it's really sad to see it." If only a pig farm could really do it. Liu Yujun remembered that he bought some meat that day and went home, and the children were so happy to eat that meal, if only they could eat meat in the future.

"It's not that easy, what about feeding the pigs, you don't want to feed the pigs with the rest of the grain, do you?" Uncle Qin asked Jiang Zhi with a glare.

"How can it be, the Hoho people are not so Hoho. I just want to exchange grain for grass and chaff, and we can discuss how to exchange it, but these two things are useless things for everyone, and if we exchange food, I think they will be happy. Jiang Zhi said.

I interjected next to me: "In the summer, there is grass in the fields, even the elderly and children can pull a few catties at will, and they can exchange food when they come to the village, I think they should be very positive." And our village basically grows sweet potatoes, and in the end, the sweet potato seedlings are useless, can they be used to feed pigs? No one eats the bran left over from the rice at home, and it is thrown away for nothing, and it can also be taken to the pig farm for food, how good it is. ”

After I finished speaking, I looked at Jiang Zhi, and everyone didn't speak, thinking about the feasibility of what I said.

"Actually, what we're talking about is an idea, and no one knows if it can be completed according to the plan, so I plan to start a trial next spring, and many ideas have to be continuously improved in practice. If we can, then we will set up this pig farm, and our village will have meat to eat in the future, if not, then we will not lose anything, just some chaff and grass, and the food will be earned by the villagers, and it is not a waste, is it? Jiang Zhi said.

"Okay, I support you, let's try it next year, it's better if it works, if it doesn't work, we're looking for the experience of failure." Lao Zhangtou spoke first to express his support.

After that, everyone also expressed their support one after another.

All that remains is to discuss where to build this pig farm, how big it is, who to hire to feed the pigs every day, clean the pigsty, and how many catties of grass and bran can be exchanged for a pound of rice.

In the course of their discussion, they finished the sweet potatoes I roasted on the stove, and by 12 o'clock in the afternoon, they were still talking about it.

As soon as I saw this situation, this was a must-have meal, so I went in and beckoned my mother-in-law and mother to go to the kitchen to prepare meals to entertain guests, not that I wanted to trouble the elderly, but that my cooking skills really couldn't be on the table, Jiang Zhi, the chef, was still talking to them in the living room, so I could only use my mothers.

The mothers were quick to make a table of dishes in less than an hour, and then the old men shifted the discussion to the dinner table.

During the period, when I asked them to eat at the table, Chen Hao also said very politely: "Oh, you see that we have been here for so long, you are embarrassed enough to be tea and fruit, why do you still have such a table of delicious food, this~this~ How embarrassing." ”

I rolled my eyes very unladylike in the dark, thinking to myself how Jiang Zhi could think that this Chen Hao was very capable, from these few words, I could hear that he and his younger brother Chen Ming were all the way, and the delicious food was not enough, so they deserved to be brothers.

During the banquet, they drank wine and ate side dishes, and the discussion was particularly energetic.

Lao Zhangtou also humorized and said, "Jiang Zhi, no wonder you don't like the gift from Chen Cuihua, your wine is not good." After he finished speaking, Zi Yu drank a small glass, he was also an old wine bag.

"Haha, to tell you the truth, I really don't like this kind of wine, this is my daughter-in-law made it with her own grain, and the taste is ...... Oops, I can't say it, it's all in the wine, come, it's done. After Jiang Zhide finished speaking, he drank the wine in the glass, and everyone at the table also did it, and then smashed it, smashed it, tasted it carefully, and then praised it really well.

Of course, the rice I use for sake brewing is the rice produced in the space, the water used for sake brewing, the stream water of the space, and then I also put the wine vat in the space to ferment, so the ingredients are all superb, so can the taste of the brew be bad?

I also made a lot of wine and fruit wine in the space, all of which were sweet and sour, so Jiang Zhi bragged about it, and when they left, I filled a bottle of fruit wine for each of them with a wine bottle, saying that it was for the aunt at home to taste it.

The meal was eaten until dark, and they were all drunk, and the drinks were crooked, but Li Cheng and Li Shanqing sent them back one by one. Of course, what I promised to give was also not left behind.

Looking at the mess of cups and plates in the restaurant, I began to complain to Jiang Zhi, "Look, look, they all said that they won't let you be the village head, this is a way for the village to solve the problem, and we have to provide food and drink in our own family, and we haven't given the gift yet, so we will give away the old things first, which is a big loss." "I feel a little unfair in my heart, when we were not the village head, in order to do things to give gifts to the village chief, why are we now the village head, we still give gifts to others.

Jiang Zhi also drank a little high, and after listening to my complaints, he smiled and said, "Didn't Chen Jipin come to give gifts, you don't want it." ”

When I heard this, I got angry, slammed the chopsticks I had just picked up in my hand and threw them on the dining table again, and shouted: "You said that she is the best, and the things she gave are even better, can I ask for it?" ”

Qu's mother in the kitchen heard the sound and shouting of me smashing the bowl, and shouted at Jiang Zhi in the kitchen: "What's the matter, this is, I just stopped for a while and wanted to be a demon again, didn't I, Jiang Zhi, don't get used to her, clean her up well, and she will stop." ”

This~ Is this still my own mother? I feel so aggrieved in my heart.

Jiang Zhike didn't care about that, when he heard his mother-in-law speak, he stood up and picked me up, and walked towards our room with great strides, saying as he walked: "What my mother-in-law said is right, this daughter-in-law just has to clean up, and if she doesn't clean up, she will not be honest." ”

That night, in the space, Jiang Zhi took advantage of the strength of the wine and cleaned me up fiercely, I screamed again and again, Hanhan had already slipped into his treehouse by himself when we first entered the space (Jiang Zhi made up for the child's inability to sleep in the wooden house, so he built a wooden house for the child on a hundred-year-old tree at the edge of the space, and from then on, it was Hanhan's exclusive room. Ignore our parents who don't have a serious business. (To be continued......)
