Chapter 280 To be rich, build roads first

Pingyang County, Zheshan Commune.

With a small car, Zhao Wenmu's inspections in Zheshan Commune were much more convenient.You must know that during the hot and humid mushroom buying season in the past two years, he rode a bicycle to and from various places many times, which was simply miserable.

However, after driving the car, he realized that his thinking was still too simple.

It is true that sitting in the car, without worrying about the wind and the sun, and without having to pedal hard by yourself, is indeed a lot more comfortable.

But the road conditions in this era are really bad.

Especially the barren and mountainous Zheshan Commune.

The car kept bumping on the dirt road in the country, and Zhao Wenmu felt that he would spit out the New Year's Eve dinner if it continued like this.

"Xiao Wu, stop first, stop first!"

Unbearable, Zhao Wenmu asked the driver Xiao Wu to stop the car on the side of the road, and immediately got out of the car, kicked his legs, stretched his waist and twisted his neck.

After all, Daben is too eye-catching. For comfort and safety, Zhao Wenmu specially hired a driver and bodyguard, Xiao Wu.

Shi Hou is also studying hard, moving towards the direction of bodyguard and secretary.

Unexpectedly, when Zhao Wenmu, Shi Hou, and Xiao Wu were standing on the side of the road to rest, the originally sunny weather suddenly changed, and soon it began to rain heavily.

The three got into the car immediately.

The wipers were swinging back and forth rhythmically, and the vision in front of them was still extremely poor.

The bean-sized rainwater slapped on the dusty road, and the sky and the earth soon turned yellow, and the muddy rainwater covered with mud dripped on the car windows, making the surroundings a mess.

Soon they were in an even more embarrassing situation.

The car got stuck on the road.

The car, which lacked grip, struggled on the soft ground after the rain, and it didn't take long for it to completely lie down.

The tires were idling feebly, and the muddy rainwater was thrown out, splashing Shihou who was standing behind the car all over his body and face.

Xiao Wu was in control of the vehicle, while Zhao Wenmu and Shi Hou were pushing the vehicle in the heavy rain in embarrassment.

The three fought hard and finally pushed the car out.

At this time, Zhao Wenmu and Shihou had already been drenched in water.

However, after driving less than 200 meters, the car got stuck in the rain again.

"Grass!"

Zhao Wenmu was so angry that he kicked the wheel of the car.

"Boss, why don't you wait here first, I'll go to the commune to borrow a tractor to tow the car out!"

Xiao Wu always calls Zhao Wenmu boss respectfully.

"That's all I can do, please!"

Zhao Wenmu and Shi Hou sat back in the car, while Xiao Wu walked to the commune station in the rain.

Fortunately, it is not far from the location of the commune, and the chug of the tractor came to my ears more than half an hour later.

The tractor driver of the commune drove the car, and Xiao Wu and another young man stood at the junction of the front of the car and the body of the car, rushing here in the rain.

The tractor is extremely suitable for this kind of road conditions. The driving wheels with a height of half a person have deep grooves, which make the tires fit tightly with the ground, and the sufficient grip makes it have enough room for its abundant power.

After pulling the hemp rope, the driver started to accelerate slowly. Amidst the deeper roar of the engine, thick black smoke rose from the chimney on the right side of the tractor's front.

The tractor easily pulled out the Mercedes-Benz, and then dragged it forward.

The only slight disadvantage is that the front of the tractor is too light. When the vehicle increases its horsepower output, the front of the tractor starts to tilt up, especially when this happens to be a climbing section.

Seeing this, the young man immediately stood on the bumper of the front of the car with both hands and hands, and used his own weight to help the tractor stabilize the front of the car.

This situation is common to everyone, especially in the busy season when tractors are loaded with a lot of grain.

This kind of road conditions are all around the commune station, not to mention other places.

Zhao Wenmu and the others had no choice but to live temporarily in the commune.

In the evening, Zhao Wenmu was the host and invited everyone to dinner as an expression of gratitude.After drinking for three rounds, Zhao Wenmu couldn't help but sigh:
"Oh, no wonder even during the ignorant and backward Qing Dynasty, the imperialist powers rushed to China to build railways. Without convenient transportation, it really has a great impact!"

The young man with the car today is also the only person in the commune with a junior college degree in evening school, Ma Youyi said with some disdain:
"Huh, the big powers will not do it for goodwill, but they can use it to control the Qing government's fiscal and taxation sovereignty, open the door to China, and make it easier for them to dump goods and seize resources! Those railways are obviously ropes wrapped around the necks of the Chinese people. , keep sucking our blood!"

Zhao Wenmu didn't refute the young man's words, because it was indeed the truth.

However, for Zheshan Commune, Zhao Wenmu is a very important person after all. Almost half of the villagers in the commune have a better life because of him. The veteran commune secretary immediately smoothed things over:

"Xiao Zhao is right. There is nothing wrong with the road itself. The key is how to use it and who uses it. Isn't our commune suffering from bad roads?"

Zheshan Commune is mountainous and the terrain is rugged. The resulting bad road conditions really made everyone miserable.

"Secretary Zhang, if you want to get rich, you have to build roads first! Would you like to consider repairing the road from the commune to the county?"

Zhao Wenmu suggested.

In his opinion, it is worthwhile to build a tens of kilometers long gravel road.

Although there is no condition to repair the road to the village for the time being, even if it only reaches the commune, it can greatly facilitate everyone.

In this era, labor costs are very cheap, and some members can even be mobilized for free, so the cost of road construction will not be very high.

"Xiao Zhao, you've wronged me here. It's not that the commune doesn't want to build this road, it's because there is no money in the commune! You also know what's going on in our commune..."

The reality is that the commune can't even afford the stones for road construction.

Because of this, the dirt road became potholed after a few rains, and then the commune mobilized members to dig and fill the pits to level it out; after a few days, it became potholed again, so the commune had to mobilize the commune members to dig and fill the pits again.

Just toss back and forth like this.

Secretary Zhang secretly observed Zhao Wenmu while complaining.

The reason why he complained so much was not to complain, but to see if he could get some "sponsorship" from Zhao Wenmu.

Zhao Wenmu has a precedent in this regard. The classrooms of the Commune Primary School were built last year with his funds.

After a storm in mid-June last year, a thick thumb gap appeared on the east wall of the front classroom across the entire wall, but all the students could only squeeze into three classrooms in the back row.

Zhao Wenmu was frightened into a cold sweat when he heard about this situation.

He immediately donated a sum of money to the commune, and took advantage of the summer vacation to knock down all the classrooms and rebuild them.

No one can suffer children!
But now and then, Zhao Wenmu neither intends to undertake the road construction nor can he undertake it.

The commune is actually capable of solving this matter.

"Secretary Zhang, there are so many mountains in our commune, is it possible that we still lack stones?"

Zhao Wenmu asked with a smile.

"Boss Zhao, there are only big rocks on the mountain that cannot be moved. Where did you get the rocks?"

The pony asked back with some displeasure.

Small stones with uniform particles are used for road construction, and naturally they are not random big stones on the mountain.

It's just that Zhao Wenmu doesn't know this truth?
