I live in the countryside

Chapter 112 Small achievements of the Agricultural Economic Society (2 more)
"Yingbo, sit down quickly." Qiao Churan beckoned people to sit down: "I thought you had already gone back? Are you going to stay at home for a while?"

He left his hometown when he was young and settled in a big city in central China. Yingbo worked hard for half his life, and he could no longer see the aura of a countryman on his body. He smiled kindly: "It's hard to go home. I haven't been back for many years. I plan to stay for a while. go back."

Qiao Churan said with a smile: "The air in the countryside is good. There is nothing important. It's good to live for a while. It just so happens that the weather is warm and suitable for vacation."

Yingbo laughed heartily, "What kind of vacation is it? I haven't come back for too many years. If I don't come back, everyone won't know me, and I don't know you young people."

Qiao Churan laughed: "Why? Everyone in the village remembers Yingbo, and the roads in the village were built with Yingbo's funds."

Yingbo waved his hand: "I'm old too. I made some money outside, and I have to get it back and do something useful. This is my home, so I can't pretend that I can't see it."

Yingbo is an old man with traditional thinking, and he even has a little persistence in giving back to his hometown when he was growing up: "The sage said that if you are poor, you will be alone, and if you are rich, you will benefit the world. , must help."

Qiao Churan listened with admiration, and chatted with Ying Bo a few more words.

Yingbo seemed to be very interested in her planting cantaloupe. Although she said a little that day, she came to ask again today, asking if Qiao Churan planned to grow it.

Yingbo's thinking is different from that of the villagers. When Qiao Churan told him these things, he was able to speak freely and use more professional words.

"We naturally want to expand the scale." Qiao Churan didn't hide the fact that he was blocked from planting melons at the time, but he didn't say much. I know it in my heart, but the facts speak louder than words. When the melons of this season are ripe, next year at the latest, we must expand the scale."

She has been thinking about land transfer recently, and she wants to try something next season. It's hard for other people in the village to say. If this season is effective, the relatives and friends of the Qiao family should be willing to rent out some fields near the shed so that She expands the planting.

In the countryside, land is a major issue, and the transfer of land is even more related to everyone's livelihood. Qiao Churan understands that if there are only empty words, there will be no actual results for everyone to see that the actual benefits brought by doing this are better than the current ones. The traditional way of planting rice and corn to get more is not convincing, nor can it reassure everyone, so although I have an idea in my heart, I can only hold it down and wait for a better time to raise this matter.

Yingbo nodded: "Good idea. If you are determined to do this in the village, you can go to other places. In central and eastern China, the development of new rural agriculture in many places is more mature than it is now. You should go and have a look. "

Qiao Churan nodded: "I will go and have a look."

After chatting at Qiao Churan's house for nearly two hours, Ying Bo left.

Qiao Churan originally planned to find Qin Muzhou, but after Yingbo left, she found a car and went to the town.

It was already noon when we arrived at the entrance of the Agricultural Economic Society. It was not the first time Qiao Churan had come here. He sent a message to Qin Muzhou and went straight up.

The Agricultural Economic Society seems to be very lively.

As soon as Qiao Churan walked to the door of Qin Muzhou's office on the second floor, he heard simple and honest laughter from inside.

A man said loudly: "Thanks to our Agricultural Economic Society, I never imagined that I could sell more than 400 chickens at once."

The man was about 30 years old, and he was very excited when he spoke, and he kept holding Zhou Lei's hand.

Qin Muzhou sat by the desk, with a faint, gentle smile on his face.

Zhou Lei smiled until the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes came out: "It's all what it should be, what it should be, and it's because you have raised it well that it sells well."

Qin Muzhou saw Qiao Churan at a glance, and went to bring the person over. The person saw the person, and was afraid of delaying the work of Qin Muzhou and Zhou Lei, so he said a few more words before leaving.

Zhou Lei sent people to the door.

Qiao Churan was curious: "What happened? It's so lively?"

Zhou Lei came back with a smile, and naturally greeted Qiao Churan: "Little Qiao, are you looking for Brother Qin again?"

"Just now this is a villager from Sishan Village. Last year, with the encouragement of our Agricultural Economic Society, he raised more than 400 native chickens. At the end of March this year, he sold them all for him, earning nearly 4 at once. Yuan, with this excitement, he ran to the Agricultural Economic and Economic Society to thank us for coming, here, even the chickens were brought.”

Only then did Qiao Churan realize that there were two woven bags on the ground, with a chicken head protruding from them.

But when she heard the news, she was also happy for the farmers: "This is a good thing."

"Isn't it a good thing?" Although it is a matter of work, it is a happy thing to do it because of one's own strength, and to be recognized and grateful. The smile on Zhou Lei's face stopped. Can't come down: "I also said that I will double the amount of breeding this year."

After all, earning 4 yuan at once, and then deducting the cost, actually made a lot of money, much more than farming.

Qiao Churan smiled and said, "Then there may be more people joining the Agricultural Economics Society this year."

Zhou Lei seemed to have foreseen it: "So you see that Lao Qin doesn't even have time for dating now."

Seeing that after his girlfriend came, he chatted happily with others instead, Qin Muzhou glanced at Zhou Lei lightly: "Aren't you going to eat at noon?"

Zhou Lei smiled slightly and cleaned up the table: "I'll leave right away."

He also doesn't want to eat dog food.

Finally, there were only two people left in the office. Qin Muzhou poured Qiao Churan a glass of water, "What's there to talk about with Zhou Lei?"

Qiao Churan blinked: "I find that you are quite stingy."

Qin Muzhou responded calmly: "I just found out now? I have never been a magnanimous person."

Qiao Churan couldn't help laughing, and raised her hand to pinch Qin Muzhou's handsome face: "You have such a thick skin!"

Qin Muzhou took her hand off, looked up, and saw a person standing at the door of the office. It was Mo Guiyuan, the president of the Agricultural Economic Society.

Qin Muzhou stood up: "President Mo."

Qiao Churan also looked over. This was the first time she saw Mo Guiyuan at a relatively close distance. He was a middle-aged man with a slightly fat body, a wide forehead and bald head, small eyes, and wearing a black jacket. It makes people feel that it is not easy to get along with.

At this time, Mo Guiyuan's eyes were also on Qiao Churan, and he looked at him with two points.

Qiao Churan also stood up: "Hello."

"Who are you?" Mo Guiyuan said in a bad tone, "What are you doing here?"

It was already off-duty time, and there was nothing wrong with Qiao Churan's arrival. Before she could speak, Qin Muzhou grabbed her hand, pulled her by his side, and said to Mo Guiyuan, "This is my girlfriend."

Mo Guiyuan paused, then snorted lightly, "Xiao Qin, I didn't mean you, this is in the office, you have to be careful, it's not good to be seen by others."

Qin Muzhou's expression was quite calm: "President Mo, what's the matter?"

Mo Guiyuan paused, he was originally the president of the Agricultural Economic Society, but since Qin Muzhou came, the temperament of the young man has changed there, and he always felt that he was a dwarf and inferior, so he disliked Qin Muzhou very much.

Coughing lightly, Mo Guiyuan put on airs and said, "Come out, I have something to do with you."

After speaking, he turned his head and left first.

Qin Muzhou looked at Qiao Churan, and wanted to tell her to wait in his office, but Qiao Churan said in a low voice, "Go, I'll wait for you downstairs, and we will have lunch together later."

Qiao Churan didn't wait downstairs for long. About 10 minutes later, Qin Muzhou came down.

In April, the weather in the south has already warmed up. Qin Muzhou was only wearing a light-colored shirt. The sun was a little bright at noon. When he came down, he saw Qiao Churan standing not far away chatting with an old lady, and his frowning brows eased. unfolded.

Walking over, subconsciously grabbed Qiao Churan's waist: "Have you been waiting?"

"No, it's over, shall we go have a meal then?"

Qin Muzhou gave a low laugh, and took her away: "What do you want to eat?"

Qiao Churan smiled lowly: "Go back to your place, this girl will show you a hand."

Mo Guiyuan, who came out of the Agricultural Economics Society, looked at the direction Qin Muzhou and Qiao Churan left, and asked an old employee of the Agricultural Economics Society beside him: "This kid, does he have a girlfriend?"

"You didn't pay attention. It's been a few days. I heard that I have visited the parents."

Mo Guiyuan really didn't pay much attention. He bought a house in the county seat. During this time, the son of the family was rebellious, the old mother was in poor health, and she was too lazy to run back and forth. The work of the Agricultural Economics Society was actually a mixed pension salary. , I don't come to the Agricultural Economics Society very much, so I don't know much about Qin Muzhou.

With a sneer, Mo Guiyuan said with a cigarette butt in his hand, "It's really strange that famous college students come to Wuxi Town to find a wife."

The old employee knew a little better, and said in a low voice: "That's because you don't know who that girl is. In our Wuxi Town, the girl who was the first to be admitted to a key university in Beicheng is an alumnus. Go and see her again and again. gone."

Mo Guiyuan suddenly thought of something: "Isn't that the one from Qingxi Village who came back to grow cantaloupe?"

"It's her." The old employee was stunned and replied.

Mo Guiyuan sneered, "I see."
