Rebirth 1983: Murakami's Wife Wants a Divorce

Chapter 68
The news that Liu Ye was going to electrify Yanziao spread like wildfire, and soon everyone in the production team knew about it.

That afternoon, Liu's ancestral hall was full of people.Except for the four laborers who unload coal from the coal mine, everyone else has arrived.

Liu Hanming was the first to speak, explaining the necessity and feasibility of electrification.Then the villagers freely express their opinions.

Although a show of hands is stipulated.Order is still somewhat chaotic.

The villagers have suffered so many years of uselessness, watching other production teams with bright lights, they can only light kerosene lamps.

Later, even the supply and marketing cooperatives had no kerosene to sell, so they could only rely on vegetable oil lamps.

The light from the vegetable oil lamp was dim and there was a puff of smoke.When I woke up the next day, even my nostrils were black.

Based on the opinions of the villagers, it is also varied.Some villagers said that he would rather light oil lamps than pay electricity bills.There are also villagers who want to turn on the lights quickly and want to buy a TV.

Liu Hanming coughed lightly, and said, "Everyone, stop arguing. Let's vote by raising your hands. The village representatives who agree to electrify please raise your hands."

Liu Haitao counted the number of people one by one: "128 people"

"If you disagree, please raise your hand."

"10 people."

Liu Hanming said: "Please Liu Haitao record the number of voters in the minutes of the meeting. Next to the second topic, Liu Ye said that he is personally willing to pay for the cost of public power lines, but the prerequisite is to rent the brick factory foundation of the production team for production. The lease is for 20 years.”

Immediately someone yelled: "It only costs more than 1000 yuan to buy public wires. He also needs to rent land for 20 years. The land has two acres. The rent is too cheap. The average is only 50 yuan per year!"

As soon as this remark came out, someone immediately booed.Those sons of Liu Zushan happened to be there, and they all shouted fiercely.

All of a sudden the venue was in chaos.

Liu Haitao snarled and said, "Stop arguing. Without Liu Ye's more than 1000 yuan, no one will pay for the electric wires of the public line, which means that the power supply will be in vain again. You all think it over for me. Answer again!"

The scene became silent.No one dared to make any more noise.

Everyone is very clear.This time the conditions are the most favorable.If this opportunity is lost, the Yanziao production team does not know when it will be able to use electricity.

Liu Hanming still uses the old method: vote with a show of hands.

The result was 130 votes in favor. 8 votes against.

Passed again.

Just when Liu Hanming was about to end the meeting, Liu Ye cleared his throat and said, "Everyone be quiet, I have something to say."

"I rented the old brick factory for a purpose, that is, to set up a factory. I want to set up the first factory in our village. In the future, I want to recruit a group of young people under the age of 30 and with a junior high school education or above. People can recruit from the production team first. If there is no one in the production team, I will recruit people from the whole village and town. In a word, I, Liu Ye, will quit agriculture for the time being and work in industry!
"Liu Ye wants to be a capitalist, and in the future he will cut off the capitalist's tail."

"The number one landlord of the Yanzi'ao production team will definitely be Liu Ye in the future!"

"Being a worker has to restrict culture, look how much his brain is cramped!"

"..."

There was laughter.Liu Ye still hired five employees on the spot: Liu Weiguo, Liu Liangliang, Liu Guoqing, Liu Guokai, and Zeng Shiming.

These people are only junior high school culture.He is considered a highly educated person in the village.

Liu Ye carefully wrote down their names and prepared to communicate with Hu Fuhua before sending them to Xianfeng Machinery Factory for training.

Hu Fuhua did not expect Liu Ye's efficiency to be ridiculously high.In just a few days, work such as electricity, land, and recruitment began rapidly.

He said happily: "Liu Ye, immediately let your new employees come to our factory for two weeks of training, and they will be able to independently operate the machine tool, and then they can take orders."

When the real estate certificate arrived at Cheng Dong's place, the loan of 5 yuan was also released.Deduct 10% of the fee.What I actually got was 5000 yuan.

Hu Fuhua said happily: "Liu Ye, there is so much money, not a lot. Expand as you go. We can send orders and materials to you for some accessories, and you can earn some leftovers after processing."

Liu Ye realized that if a small hardware accessories factory collects the trimmed scraps and sells them as scrap iron, it can provide enough living expenses for a small family for a year.

In the next two months, the entire Yanziao production team experienced an unprecedented scene of boiling.

It took them only two weeks to complete the work of pulling the wires and tree poles.The first one to be electrified was the home of production leader Liu Hanming.

Liu Hanming's first incandescent light bulb lit up.Immediately, [-] firecrackers rang out in the yard.

Since then, the sound of crackling has been repeated one after another, and the whole production team is even more lively than the New Year.

Liu Ye set off [-] firecrackers in front of the newly built courtyard.

Amidst the sound of gunpowder smoke, Liu Ye secretly wept.

After time travelling, he has never been idle.First of all, he wanted to make his own home with four walls better, and then he thought of doing something good for the villagers.

Of course, there are still many things that need to be done.The hidden danger of the mine disaster that claimed the lives of 38 miners has not been ruled out.

This incident was like a needle piercing deep in Liu Ye's soul, and he couldn't pull it out even if he wanted to.

"What are you thinking, a big man, still crying?"

Li Cuiyu got out from nowhere, saw Liu Ye crying, and asked coquettishly.

Liu Ye wiped away his tears and said with a smile, "I'm so happy."

"Of course it's something to be happy about. It's only been a few months? Our family lives in a big house, and the entire production team has access to electricity. How can you be unhappy?"

"Liu Ye, do you know? Now the whole village is talking good things about you. Everyone says that Liu Ye was born in the Yanzi'ao production team, and I'm afraid that the poor hat will be completely removed."

Li Cuiyu said seriously.

The complex of the Yanziao production team is a bit more complicated.But people's hearts are still basically good.Take the use of electricity as an example. Although several households objected, they followed the trend in the end.

Liu Ye spent 1000 yuan to rent the right to use two acres of land in the brick factory for 20 years.

In other words, Liu Ye has at least 20 years for him to develop and grow in this life.This deal is really worth it.

A small old woman emerged from the darkness.

Liu Ye hurriedly said hello: "Grandma Shan, the light is not good at night, so be careful when walking at night."

Grandma Shan said with a smile: "I thought I would never use electricity until I died. I didn't expect it to happen so suddenly."

"Liu Ye, thank you, my old man's mood has improved a lot in the past two days, and he can go to work in the fields."

"Oh? That's a great thing."

Grandma Shan said quietly: "Liu Ye, you don't know something. Since you let his sons suffer last time, no one of his sons dares to ask me for money anymore."

Liu Ye said blankly: "They are young and should earn their own money."
