slack farmer in the wasteland

Chapter 373 Little Ambition

Sijiaping Village in May is one of the best times of the year. The weather is neither cold nor hot. A long-sleeved shirt and a pair of trousers are enough.

You won't sweat a whole day's walk outside, and the vegetation is lush and the fragrance of birds and flowers is everywhere. Sitting in front of your own platform and under the vines, enjoying the flowers and drinking a drink is really pleasant.

When he got home, Cang Hai became lazy, holding a book or making a pot of tea all day, often just sitting for a whole day.Anyway, all the work that should be busy is done. As for weeding and fertilizing, Cang Hai doesn't need it at all. I have to say that he is suddenly idle, and Cang Hai still feels a little uncomfortable.

At noon, Cang Hai didn't cook lunch, because Cang Hai was alone at home today, the little girl Mengmeng went to school, Shi Wei took Ping An, Wu Hui, and Wen Yiyi's prospective daughter-in-law, and Hai Mingzhu drove a Mercedes-Benz together. The county town went shopping for Wen Yiyi's new home, leaving only Cang Hai to look after the house.

Cang Hai was the only one in the family, so Cang Hai didn’t cook any big dishes. He boiled some peanuts, made a plate of cucumbers, sliced ​​tomatoes and added a little sugar, made a plate of cold tomatoes, and boiled them for a while. A plate of salted water edamame, I also got a white chopped chicken, and finally steamed a plate of salted fish, placed it under the grape arbor, called the three uncles and three aunts over, and the three uncles and nephews had a drink under the grape arbor.

"You're too extravagant!" The third uncle took a sip of Yanghe in his glass, and rolled a chopstick of edamame in his mouth, and said to Cang Hai to teach him a lesson.

"Drink as long as you drink, and teach Haiwazi what to do when you have nothing to do!" Wei Qin said with a dissatisfied stare at Cang Shiyuan.

"It's not that I taught him a lesson, but that this kid is too showy. He doesn't talk about anything else, just this car. Is it necessary? Who doesn't spread the word in seven miles and eight towns now?" Cang Shiyuan pointed to the steel shed next to him. The bewitching red Rolls-Royce parked below costs nearly 1000 million yuan to buy a car. If it is placed in a county or town, it will be full of eye-catching, let alone in the countryside.

To be honest, Cang Hai really regrets it now, there is really no need to buy such an expensive car, Shi Wei thinks it is too attractive to drive, Cang Hai often stays at home, and the car has not been moved for seven or eight days after returning.Impulse consumption is really the devil.

Wei Qin said: "Don't listen to your third uncle. Don't we have to spend the money we earn honestly? Why don't we keep it? Not to mention anything else, I bought this car from Haiwazi, and people in the village take it with them when they go to town. Feng, when the money arrives this year, we will also buy a car! Maybe the people in the city drive around in their cars, so we farmers are not allowed to buy a good car?"

Cang Shiyuan clapped the chopsticks in his hand: "A woman's hair is long but her knowledge is short! Do you know that you don't reveal your wealth!"

"You have a lot of knowledge. I have been to all the places you go, and the farthest is only two visits to the magic capital. How much knowledge do you have?" Wei Qin said very dissatisfied.

As soon as Cang Hai heard that the two old couples were going to quarrel at the dinner table, he immediately persuaded him: "You two, stop arguing. By the way, how is Henan now? Are you living comfortably in Shanghai? In terms of life Are there any difficulties?"

As soon as the topic fell on Cang Henan, the old couple was immediately distracted by Cang Hai.

Wei Qin said: "Don't mention this kid, he is a heartless thing. I called him yesterday, and after a few words, he said that he was going to class, and he hung up immediately!"

Cang Shiyuan said: "Is it more important for the child to go to class or to call you? You mother-in-law just can't tell the importance!"

"Are you looking for a fight today?" Wei Qin was very upset.

Cang Shiyuan didn't fight hard with his wife this time, but asked Cang Hai: "Hai Wazi, the consumption in Shanghai is so high, and four thousand a month is not enough for him to live on!"

After hearing this, Cang Hai asked, "Is this kid asking for money again?"

"Isn't it? I brought him a semester's living expenses, and it was all spent at the beginning of May. I called your uncle and I sent him another 8000 yuan. How do you think this kid can spend money so much?" Well. Haiwazi, do you think he might have made some bad friends, or gone down some crooked paths?" Wei Qin was a little worried.

Cang Hai laughed and said, "Auntie, don't think about it. I went to Shanghai to ask about it this time. I heard that Henan has a girlfriend. It's normal to spend more money."

"Really? Is there a photo of that girl? Where is she from? What does the family do? Is it a girl in the city or a girl in the country? I think the girl will be better, hardworking and able to endure hardships. I will wait for the two to return home after graduation. With the support of the village, the days are booming..." Wei Qin's eyes lit up immediately upon hearing this.

Cang Shiyuan was so calm: "My baby is just a friend in school. If you think about it, you will immediately think of holding a great-grandson!"

Just finished speaking, Cang Shiyuan turned to Cang Hai and asked again: "Haiwazi, have you seen that girl?"

Several black lines almost hung on Cang Hai's face: "I really haven't seen it before. I heard Qi Yue say that the girl is not bad. The people in Guangzhou Province are not too tall but not too short."

Cang Hai really doesn’t care too much about college romances, because nine times out of ten, when he graduates, he will be separated from others, such as Canghenan, it’s okay to come back to the village, otherwise, the school he graduated from will not be able to enter Canghai. company, otherwise it would be difficult to find a good job.

There are many famous schools in Shanghai, not to mention Shanghai's own school, the big Shanghai also has a siphon effect on the surrounding college students. It is really difficult for him, a third-year student, to find a good job in Shanghai.

"This kid, don't tell the family, just stay with friends, can we limit him? No, I have to call him in the afternoon and ask if he is short of money," Wei Qin said .

When Cang Hai heard this, he thought to himself: This is my real mother!Knowing that his son had a girlfriend, he immediately thought about delivering ammunition to his son.

"If he doesn't have money, he will know what you want, why worry about it?" Cang Shiyuan said.

While talking about this, Miao Zhengwei walked over.

"Yo, is this drinking?"

"Secretary Miao, come and sit down and have a drink!" Cang Shiyuan saw Miao Zhengwei approaching and immediately stood up and greeted Miao Zhengwei enthusiastically.

As soon as Miao Zhengwei came, Wei Qin immediately got up and went to the kitchen to move a small stool and a wine cup with chopsticks.

Miao Zhengwei got along very well with everyone, and everyone now has a good impression of the new village secretary transferred from above. They thought they would send someone with mixed experience, but who would have thought that they would send a capable one? I bought a seedling planter.

Although it is not as easy to use as the ones sent by the Japanese, but with this heart, the villagers will appreciate it, so now whenever Miao Zhengwei goes to eat, he will drag the new village secretary to eat with him.

What's more, Miao Zhengwei is willing to work hard when he is working. He is not afraid of hardships and difficulties, nor does he play tricks and sell adultery. The watermelons he planted are not much less than everyone else's, which makes the villagers' goodwill towards him a step further. , and now Miao Zhengwei is treated like a villager.

Even Cang Hai's evaluation of Miao Zhengwei has improved a lot.

Miao Zhengwei sat down after being polite. He also knew that if the folks invite you to eat, they are sincerely inviting you, and they are not playing tricks. .

"This is good wine! Don't mention that you can't drink it a few times a year in the town!" Miao Zhengwei looked at the Yanghe M6 ​​on the table and said with a smile.

Cang Hai said with a smile: "Waiting for next year, and strive for everyone to drink it!"

"Yes, we will strive for everyone to have a car next year, so that you can have good wine that you couldn't drink before on the table when you drink at home!" Miao Zhengwei said with a smile.

When he first came to Sijiaping, Miao Zhengwei heard that this place was going to develop, and he was prepared for it, but he was surprised when he arrived. He didn't expect that Sijiaping Village was not developed, but had A soaring posture.For him, a young man with political aspirations, that was a good starting point.

With a chopstick of tomato, Miao Zhengwei ate and praised: "This dish is authentic in our Sijiaping Village. The red grown in other greenhouses is red, but it doesn't have a sour taste. It tastes like It's like chewing wax."

"Secretary Miao, why don't you go home, we will prepare some for you when you go home, and let the family taste the dishes of our Sijiaping Village," Cang Shiyuan said cheerfully.

Miao Zhengwei smiled and said: "It's okay to bring a few to try out, but you can't bring too many!"

After finishing speaking, he changed the subject and asked Cang Hai: "Cang Hai, the village is going to plant kiwi fruit, and the Wenyi Road Forest Farm has already cultivated saplings. This time, we will distribute about [-] kiwis to our village. Would you like to add more kiwis?" Come in?"

Last year, the village decided to plant kiwifruit, and Hu Shijie was the one who picked it. Originally, Wen Yiyi was going to plant it, but now the village has to follow suit. The two families have to discuss how to divide the seedlings. Naturally, Canghai's side is going to his own. No matter how much money Wen Yiyi earns, most of it will always fall into Cang Hai’s pocket, and the villagers will naturally have to take a step back, but Wen Yiyi’s distribution of [-] kiwifruit seedlings can be regarded as giving Cang Hai some kindness to the villagers. A confession.

"I'll forget it. I'll just plant some fruit for my own family to eat. You can discuss the kiwi fruit. How much each family contributes and how much dividends don't need to be counted in our family."

After speaking, Cang Hai thought for a while and said, "Include Wu Hui and Ping An!"

Cang Hai thought that if Ping An was idle, he might be arrested by his wife and sent to work as a coolie. Anyway, he would have nothing to do after harvesting melons, so he might as well ask Ping An to go to the village to earn some money.

"No problem, what the village lacks now is manpower!" Miao Zhengwei said happily, slapping his thigh.

Now it can be said that the biggest factor restricting the development of Sijiaping Village is population.

It is a way to find outsiders to work, but everyone in Sijiaping Village is against it. The villagers are not educated. They instinctively think that the things in the village belong to everyone.
In fact, this kind of thinking may not be suffocating. In the past, when Sijiaping Village was poor, when you heard about Sijiaping, you were going to marry your daughters, and you ran fast. Now that Sijiaping has developed, with What makes you lose your benefits in vain?

It is better to let the meat rot in the pot than to let others take advantage of it. This kind of small peasant mentality still has a market in the village at present.

Miao Zhengwei wanted to correct him, but he was originally a foreigner, so he didn't dare to follow the wishes of the villagers.

Cang Hai is capable of turning around the folks, but Cang Hai doesn't want to do it. Cang Hai's temper is colder. He can't think about the overall situation, and he doesn't have any ambitions. He is satisfied with managing his one-acre three-point land. .

So Miao Zhengwei can only take one step at a time.

After talking about planting kiwi fruit, Miao Zhengwei brought up the issue of environmental improvement in the village to Cang Hai.

"Is the environment in the village not good enough?" Cang Shiyuan didn't quite understand.

Miao Zhengwei stretched out his hand, dipped in the wine in the glass, and drew on the table: "Look, the small river in front of our village now, you have to wade in the water to cross the river, and there are still snow-melted water At that time, the land here, here, and here was very muddy, and the villagers had to walk in the mud when they came back from work. Why did our Sijiaping have to go out on a rainy day when the shoes were clean when we went out in the city? mud?……".

Hearing Miao Zhengwei's words, Cang Hai finally understood that this new leader in the village wanted to build the entire Sijiaping Village into a small garden.According to his plan for rectification, there is no one who can't beat the 800 million yuan.According to the development of Sijiaping Village, about 200 million yuan will be invested a year.

This is an investment, but once it is built, the environment of the entire Sijiaping Village may not be as good as many parks.Sijiaping Village, which was originally full of trees, will immediately become a beautiful garden village.

Looking at Miao Zhengwei, Cang Hai thought in his heart: This man has ambitions!
