Chapter 440 Telling the truth

After dusk, Guquan Village had some sights that were not seen on ordinary days.

There were curls of cooking smoke rising from the roofs of many villagers in the village, and the aroma of food was still filling the air. Some children were playing games in the courtyard, but many children had a layer of grease hanging from the corners of their mouths that was not seen before.

Today's children are treasures in the hearts of their parents. No matter what good thing they get, they must be the first to serve these little ancestors. Those children with greasy lips must be a piece of fat given to them by their parents before they start eating.

After the smoke from the cooking pots, the sky gradually darkened, and for a while the voices of adults from various families shouted the children's names one after another, and the children who knew there would be delicious food tonight did not respond positively to the adults' calls like usual, and after a while the village Peace temporarily returned inside.

The town leaders left, breathing a sigh of relief after watching the food being distributed to the villagers.

Before leaving, the leader once again told the villagers a good news, that is, the villagers will receive certain relief in the next period of time, and the town will also think of corresponding remedial plans to help Guquan Village survive this difficult life. .

But another thing that disappointed everyone was that when a villager inquired about organizing idle labor in the town and planned to apply in person, he was directly rejected by the town leaders.

After hearing the news, the town leader told everyone that there were no places for Guquan Village to resettle surplus labor. The villagers were a little restless. Looking at the situation of the villagers, the town leader did not continue to talk about it, but he did not reveal Gu Hongyu's thoughts. He just soothed everyone's emotions and said: "The situation in your village is quite special. Someone will come to deal with it in person after a while. Now I hope everyone believes in the government and you will not be left alone in the town."

With today's food distribution scene. Although many villagers don't understand, they can only listen to what the town leaders say. At least now they have grain, vegetables and meat in their hands, and this cannot be faked.

After dinner, many villagers in Guquan Village gathered involuntarily at Sun Tou's home because Sun Tou forcibly pulled Gan Laoer, Widow Xu and two others over.

Everyone wanted to know the answer to how Gan Laoer and the others earned this money. If they don't ask clearly tonight, I'm afraid many people will not be able to sleep.

However, the Sun family's dinner was not over yet, and everyone consciously stood outside the courtyard and waited patiently.

Unexpectedly, there were many villagers coming here at night. Some of them couldn't bear it and said to each other: "I feel like I'm dreaming now. I haven't known the taste of pork for a long time. I didn't expect it to come true today."

"The town leader said that he will send food and meat to our village in the next period of time. This time Gan Laoer. No, Yuanpei has really done you a big favor to our village."

"Yes, many people are grateful to him now. This kid is really completely different from before."

"Our village will vote for him in the election of village director soon. I think he has changed his ways now. He can also think of ways to fight for it, and he may be able to lead the development of our village in the future."

"Well, it would be great if there was someone in our village who thought about the old-fashioned way. I heard that many villagers regarded him as the reincarnation of the God of Wealth. If he had the ability to turn stones into gold, our village wouldn't have to do this. It’s miserable”

"Our village is not like Honghu Village, which has a big lake. Guban has been spread by the villagers there. With the conditions of our village, even if he comes, he will still be helpless."

"I really can't tell for sure. If he can come, we'll know if we give it a try."

"But why are the town leaders not allowed to resettle the surplus labor force in our village? Why do they say that someone will visit our village for inspection in a while? Is there really something valuable in our village?"

"The village has not been inspected over and over again by some brick-and-mortar experts. The results have all made us happy in vain. Will it be the same this time? It is said that there are no mineral resources around our village. Speaking of which, there are only those in the village. That old spring well.”

With the moon above the treetops, time passed slowly as the villagers boasted and spanked. Gan Laoer and others were also served extremely well by Sun Tou. Everyone got a little drunk after drinking some wine, but the dinner party was finally over.

"Come out. Brother Gan and the others have finished their meal."

As soon as these words came out, the lively scene suddenly became quiet. When Gan Laoer went out and saw almost the entire village crowded in darkness outside the courtyard door, he was shocked by such a scene. But he smiled with the strength of his drink: "Ah ha, you are all here."

"Brother Gan, have you eaten?"

"Brother Gan, please come out and cool down. It's not as cool as outside."

"Brother Gan"

The crowd gathered around Gan Lao'er and the others, and consciously led them to the jujube tree at the edge of the village. The gentle evening breeze really sobered them up a lot.

But when it comes to this, the villagers look at each other and don’t know how to express the problem.

Finally, an older villager in the village asked: "Gan Xiaoer, you have only been out for five or six days this time. I heard that what on earth did you do to make so much money when you arrived in Honghu Village?"

"This" is not only Gan Laoer, Widow Xu and the other two people also don't know how to answer.

Is it really necessary to tell everyone the truth so that they won't be ridiculed by everyone? The gap from being the hero of the whole village to being the object of ridicule is too big. Several people couldn't help but want to hide the news.

"Big sister of the Xu family, Cannon, Stone, didn't you always speak straightforwardly in the past? What's going on today? Is it true that we can't talk about this matter? After eating these reliefs, we can only watch our whole village suffer from famine again. "

At this time, a sick old man was helped out. He was the old village party secretary who had been ill for a long time and had not asked about the affairs of the village. Although he was old, his prestige was unmatched. The old party secretary refused several times but The villagers still unanimously believed that he would be able to convince the public only if he became the village party secretary.

Looking at the old man who was trembling even when he was being helped to walk, the emotions Gan Laoer felt in the afternoon immediately took over his mind. Seeing that no one spoke back, he finally said solemnly: "Old party secretary, actually we are going to Honghu Village this time. What he did is unspeakable, and many scalpers made so much money by relying on speculation."

Next, with the villagers' expressions varying, Gan Laoer described in detail what they had experienced in Honghu Village. The old party secretary was very angry at first when he heard what they had done, but as Gu Hongyu dealt with it, The anger in Gan Laoer's and the others' hearts slowly dissipated as they spoke of excuses.

"Gu Ban is really a good man with a broad mind, but you guys, Mr. Gan, are also very good. Now our village is suffering from the most severe crisis in history. We hope that everyone can contribute to help every family get through it." This is the difficulty." The old branch secretary sighed slowly.

Gan Laoer was a little shocked by the reaction of the old party secretary. He had been scolded by the old party secretary in the past. Not only he but also some of the villagers did not look at him with contempt. After all, although Gan Laoer had done something It was a disgraceful thing, but it was this thing that benefited the whole village of Guquan Village. Gan Laoer can be said to be everyone’s savior.
