Chapter 26 Development of a Sideline
Less than a week after the county's document was issued, it quickly spread in the countryside.

Wang Tiancheng, an accountant in Xiaowangzhuang Village, received several inquiries about bank loans early in the morning.He repeatedly repeated what the secretary of the commune said at the meeting: "No interest loans are equivalent to lending to everyone, but with more guarantees from the team. The main purpose is to allow everyone to obtain funds for the development of agricultural and sideline industries, and to solve the problem that everyone has no money and no capital." According to this policy, if you need more, you can find a few mutual aid companies and lend money to one family, so that you can do what you want to do!"

Wang Tiancheng and Lao Mu used to be classmates in junior high school. As soon as they graduated from junior high school, they went to the commune cafeteria to help out with their uncle. Although they didn't get into high school back then, they were very clever. , then went back to the village to become an accountant of the brigade. Over the years, Xiaowangzhuang Village has seen him busy in all kinds of things, big and small, such as a family conflict. Kouzi was often joked by him on the spot.When the government introduces new policies and new spirits, he often understands them better than the brigade secretary Mu Xiangshu. When the village organizes meetings, after Secretary Mu speaks, the brigade accountant Wang Tiancheng always provides explanations and supplements. His explanations and supplements are not only superficial , and sometimes revealed a little humor, because of these, the villagers secretly expressed their approval for him.

Take this loan as an example.He said privately to the villagers: "Have you ever heard of the fact that the village guarantees you a loan? It is the first time! Now, the bank lends you money, and the village guarantees you. Also, such a good thing is hard to find anywhere in the world!"

Although the explanation is a bit crude, everyone understands that the bank loan this time is a good thing for the government to help everyone. Although this policy is good, the rural people may be used to being poor, except for a few in the village who urgently need money to buy the necessary means of production. People said that in addition to borrowing, there are a few more courageous people who borrow in full according to the family's population, and plan to engage in some breeding.

For Wang Tiancheng, this policy can be said to be like a pie in the sky. He wanted to start a side business a few years ago. Due to the lack of this and that, he only stayed at the level of thinking. Now that the policy is released, it is still possible. Borrowing money to support, where can I find such a good thing?This opportunity should not be missed.However, based on his family of seven, the loan can only be [-] yuan at most. If he contacts a few more companies, he can get a loan of [-] yuan, and he can start a small pig farm.At that time, it will be difficult not to become a millionaire.

Wang Tiancheng was thinking while walking, and before he knew it, he came to the door of Lao Mu's house and saw Lao Mu who was making paper with his children: "Brother, I was looking for you!" Lao Mu was one year older than Wang Tiancheng, According to the seniority handed down from their ancestors, they always called each other brothers when they met.

"Sit inside!" Old Mu said politely.

"Sit down, I have something to ask you, this time the bank's interest-free loan, are you going to borrow it?" Wang Tiancheng looked directly at Lao Mu asking for advice.

"Well, I really haven't thought about it, what are you doing with the loan! I go to school every day, and I have nothing to do!" Lao Mu said and spread his hands.

"Do you think this will work? You lend me a loan, and I use the loan. You don't have to pay it back at that time. I want to build a small pig farm, and I can only raise a hundred and eighty pigs. Now I need to build a few pigpens. At the same time, we need to buy piglets, plus the rice bran used, etc., and it will cost eight thousand. My whole family can only borrow three thousand five thousand. If you don’t need the money, please help me. You can loan me Also, can you do it?" Wang Tiancheng thought that this classmate would definitely be able to help, so he poured beans out of the bamboo tube and said it all at once.

Lao Mu used to trust this classmate very much, but this time he hesitated a little. He looked at Wang Tiancheng's face and was stunned: "This is not a small sum, are you sure you can do it well?"

"Old classmates, don't worry, I have thought about this matter for a long time, but I have not done it because it is difficult to raise money. According to my previous experience in raising pigs, I plan to buy two sows. There are a few, cats, three dogs, four , five sheep and six pigs, these pigs have at least two crops a year, and a sow has at least ten piglets at a time. My pigpen money can't be spent for two years, and I can earn them all. In addition to the adult pigs I raise, Probably earn more. You still don’t believe in my ability?” Wang Tiancheng said confidently.

"Believe it, how could I not believe you! Well, as long as you need it, I will give you a loan, and when the time comes, just don't forget me, an old classmate!" Lao Mu responded jokingly.

"That's for sure. I'm really going to post it. How could I forget you, brother?" Wang Tiancheng's tone showed [-] points of sincerity.

After Wang Tiancheng made an agreement with Lao Mu, he casually chatted a little more, and then went out to his second uncle and third brother's house.

After all, it is my family, and the matter of the second uncle and third brother's family helping him with the loan can be done as soon as it is said.The loan was almost done, and Wang Tiancheng was very happy. Apart from being happy, he had chosen a site to build a pigsty. He had already taken a good look at the vacant land next to the wheat threshing field at the south end of the village, but it was short of funds. Tell Secretary Mu that as long as the funds are in hand, it is perfect to use this land to build a pigsty.

Wang Tiancheng hummed his favorite song "Yimeng Mountain Minor", and felt that this matter should not be a big deal to the old secretary, as long as he nodded, he could start work there.

When Wang Tiancheng knocked on the door of Secretary Mu Xiangshu's house, he saw Mu Xiangshu who was smoking in the yard, and hurried up to meet him: "Secretary Mu!" Just as he was about to continue speaking, Secretary Mu waved his hand and interrupted His words: "How are the loans these days?"

"There are not many applicants. I'm thinking about getting some loans myself to build a pigsty!" Wang Tiancheng said tentatively.

"This is a good thing. How big are you planning to build?" Secretary Mu asked, staring at Wang Tiancheng.

"If there are fewer pigs that can raise a hundred pigs, it's not worth taking one!" Wang Tiancheng responded.

"Is this not a small place? Can it fit in your yard?" Secretary Mu immediately agreed with him.

"I definitely can't pretend, so I just wanted to see where I can make room in the village to discuss this matter with you." Wang Tiancheng didn't express his thoughts directly, because he was afraid of speaking out, and if he hit a wall , then there is no room for change.

Secretary Mu naturally took two puffs of the cigarette butt on his mouth: "I'm thinking about disposing of the idle land in the village, why don't I just make a point of this, which piece of land do you like, let's open a village committee to discuss it."

"Okay, this is a good way, otherwise I really don't have a place to build a pigsty?" Wang Tiancheng agreed happily in his heart.

In fact, Mu Xiangshu knew in his heart that although Wang Tiancheng was young, what he wanted to do was after careful consideration. Since he wanted to build a pigsty, he had already thought about it, but he didn't say it clearly, and it was inconvenient for him to ask directly. Most of the unallocated idle land in the village is the homestead and the surrounding land of the threshing field, and there are several acres in total, especially the land near the wheat threshing field. Wang Tiancheng found himself talking about the matter of the idle land, which was exactly what he wanted.

"Then the next announcement today is to ask the party members to hold a branch meeting in the brigade in the afternoon to discuss the allocation of idle land in our village!" Mu Xiangshu paused for a moment, and said to Wang Tiancheng who was standing there not knowing what to say. .

"Okay, I'll notify you right away!" Wang Tiancheng promised, turned and walked out of the gate.

Wang Tiancheng, who went out, felt like a soy sauce bottle fell to the ground in his heart. He was not sure how much of the idle land decided at the meeting would be won. After all, the whole village participated, and Maybe there will be someone who is as interested in that piece of land as I am?Mu Xiangshu mentioned that he is considering the idle land, and it seems that he is also thinking about this idle land.This matter is really not easy to handle.

Mu Xiangshu is in his fifties this year, and he has been the village party secretary for 20 years. He has been educated, educated, and has an older brother who is now the leader of the district. The whole village respects him very much. He never considers personal gain or loss on matters in the village, and always puts the interests of the people in the village first. He has a high prestige in the village. On the one hand, he convenes a branch meeting to study and decide on matters in the village, and on the other hand, he can stand alone , made a decision on his own, and can truly achieve "building the party for the public and governing for the people". Over the years, no matter what changes have taken place in the outside world, Xiaowangzhuang Village has always been as calm as water, all benefiting from this stable and highly respected old secretary.

The brigade branch in Xiaowangzhuang Village actually only has three main rooms. When all the party members arrived, Mu Xiangshu cleared his throat and said to everyone: "The most talked about these days is the loan issue. The loan is for everyone to solve. The problem of the urgent need for funds in agriculture is to help everyone develop a sideline business. For us rural people, this sideline business is farming. I won’t say much about planting. Each of our families has land, so we can consider planting fruit trees on our own land. crops, but for farming, it is inconvenient for everyone to raise them in the wild, so I thought I would use the idle land in front of the village and near the grain threshing ground for everyone to develop sideline business, please share your views.”

Except for Wang Tiancheng, the rest of the people were not prepared at all, so everyone looked at each other, not knowing what to say, Mu Xiangshu rolled his eyes a few times, and scanned everyone: "Then let accountant Wang talk about his thoughts first?"

Mu Xiangshu knew that Wang Tiancheng had his own thoughts and ideas, and that this young man would be most qualified and capable to take over his position in the future. As the secretary of the brigade, every time he spoke, he would hit it off with him, and this question is probably the same.

"If the idle land is not fully utilized, it is actually a waste. I think that if you have an idea to start a side business, you can sign up first, and then decide the distribution according to the demand for the land. Because not everyone in the village has the idea to start a side business, so It is not divided according to the head, but according to the need, and the idle land is used as the asset of the village, and whoever uses it will pay some money to the brigade, so that it can also subsidize the office expenses of the village." Wang Tiancheng is obviously concerned about the idle land disposal plan. I already have an idea, but I just talked about it roughly, not in detail.After listening to it, everyone agreed with it, and it was passed by a unanimous vote.

In fact, there are really not many people in the village who want to start a side job. Two days have passed, and no one has come to Wang Tiancheng to sign up. The vacant land in the pigsty.Mu Xiangshu also wanted to do something, but when he discussed with his two sons, he got unanimous opposition. He felt that even if he started a side job, he might not be able to make money, and he might lose everything at that time, so Wang Tiancheng He obtained the right to use the land near the grain threshing ground without any risk. According to everyone's opinion, Mu Xiangshu did not charge fees based on the amount of land, but paid a symbolic 50 yuan per year to the brigade.

The loan came down quickly, and Wang Tiancheng got an interest-free loan of 1 yuan, with the word "pig raising" written on the loan reason.

It was midsummer, and in addition to strengthening the daily management of field crops, the countryside seemed very leisurely compared to the busy farming season.For Wang Tiancheng, this leisure is obviously extravagant. He is in full swing, busy with various preparations before the start of the pigsty.
