The luxurious rooms in a four-star hotel were not as comfortable as his own shabby house. Liu Xiu returned with the truck early the next morning. Huang Dong 'er had suggested that he buy a car. He did not lack money now, and it would be easier for him to get out. However, Liu Xiu gave up on it after thinking about it. In the past, he had also dreamed of driving a luxury car and living in a mansion. However, ever since he returned to the village, such thoughts seemed to have faded.
Taking a few deep breaths, Liu Xiu felt that the morning air was especially fragrant. He felt that it was a wise decision to come to Shiqiao Village.
Liu Xiu let out a big dog and nine small dogs. After feeding them milk and dew last night, the four little huskies were very active. They ran away as soon as they came out of the cage. The big dog was curiously looking at this new environment. It knew that it would live here in the future, but its eyes were always paying attention to the four little guys. The two little wolfdogs were too young, so they started to practice walking. As for the three Tibetan Mastiffs, which should have been the strongest, they were the weakest. They crawled weakly on the ground without any energy. However, the rate at which their life force was losing had slowed down. Liu Xiu was confident that he could save these three little fellows.
"Village chief, why did you buy so many dogs?”The large woman came in and asked curiously when she saw the puppies.
"Bite!" Liu Xiu replied simply, and the large woman smiled. Not to mention the little ones, even the big one did not even make a sound when she came in. Was this the kind of person who would bite?
"Little village chief, do you think we still need manpower here? Your Uncle Tie Zhu has stopped work outside again. Can you ask him and Yi Tao to come back to the village to help?”The large woman asked in embarrassment.
"What you said reminded me of something. I've been worried about hiring people recently. There are a lot of things to do next. Go to each family and inform them who is willing to come back. The salary for working in the village is 150 yuan a day.”A hint of joy flashed in Liu Xiu's eyes. There was always a way out. Another problem that troubled him was solved.
"Okay, okay, okay. I'll inform them now. There are technical workers in our village.”The large woman ran excitedly. She probably told everyone the good news. She had been separated from the man for many years, and her hard days were coming to an end.
If the task of informing and spreading public opinion was handed over to the large woman, she would definitely be able to exceed her expectations. After the mushroom was taken away, people asked Liu Xiu one after another if what the large woman said was true. This was because the large woman's gossiping ability was too strong, and things were a little too good, causing everyone to not believe it. After receiving Liu Xiu's affirmative answer, a smile appeared on everyone's faces, as bright as the morning sun.
"Xiao Feng, tell grandpa, what are you planning to do?”Old Master Liu Changnian was happy, but at the same time, he was a little worried. He had lived here all his life, so how could he not know the situation in Shiqiao Village?
"Old Master, do you think there have been any changes in our Stone Bridge Village?”Liu Xiu asked with a smile.
"Other than the sapling on the barren hill, there are no other changes.”Liu Changnian said honestly.
"Can't you give me some encouragement? This is just the beginning. When the fruit trees in the hundred orchards bear fruit, the chickens in the chicken farms are slaughtered, and the colorful roses are ripe, you will feel the difference. The biggest difference is money. The people of Shiqiao Village are going to be rich. To tell you the truth, I want to make Shiqiao Village a unique village so that everyone in Shiqiao Village can be proud of being born in Shiqiao Village. There are a few plans that you know. First of all, We don't have roads in Stone Bridge Village, and we won't build roads in the future. We'll only build rivers and take the waterway."Next, I plan to build a water tower and a unified house. In the future, every household will use tap water to take a hot bath. I'll also build a marsh gas tank and install a marsh gas hood in every household. In the future, we won't have to burn firewood for cooking.”Liu Xiu lowered his voice and told the old man the plan.
Old Master Liu seemed to be frightened by Liu Xiu's big plan. A smile slowly appeared on his face. He excitedly held Liu Xiu's hand and said,"If you succeed, you'll be the biggest benefactor of Stone Bridge Village.”
Liu Xiu chuckled and changed the topic."We still have to rely on you, Old Master! To do these things, we must use the collective income. I'm afraid that everyone will not agree.”
"If they dare, I'll break their legs.”Liu Changnian's expression turned serious as he said sternly.
Liu Xiu smiled." I was just waiting for you to say that. I'm relieved. There's still a small matter that I'll have to trouble you to help me settle. How about that?"”
"If you're dealing with Chen Fei, then forget it. It's not that I don't want to help you, but there are some things you have to do yourself. If you can't even handle Chen Fei, how can you realize those big pies you drew?”Liu Changnian had a kind smile on his face. He had lived for almost his entire life. How could Liu Xiu hide this from him?
"You're smarter than I thought!”Liu Xiu smiled awkwardly and said," Don't worry. It's just a piece of pig iron. I'll bite a hole in it."”
"This is your business. It has nothing to do with me. Do whatever you want. Take out a few of the tomatoes you hid.”Liu Changnian smiled and ignored Liu Xiu's pain. He chuckled as he watched Liu Xiu go to get the food and then left.
The first to return were the large woman's husband, Li Tiezhu, and his son. Under the large woman's orders, the family was reunited. The large woman's son, Li Dahai, was twenty-one years old this year. He was a little younger than Liu Xiu, but he had followed his father out to make a living at the age of sixteen. He was much more capable than Liu Xiu. He was definitely not self-reliant at the age of sixteen. Even now, his mother often asked," Son, do you have enough money to spend? If you don't have enough, I'll give you some money. Don't let yourself suffer when you're out there."”
Whenever he heard this, Liu Xiu's eyes would always be filled with tears. His mother was still the best. He was touched and sad. His salary was really not enough in this era where prices were soaring. Moreover, his mother had always hoped that he would find a partner and get married quickly. With his salary, it was not even enough for a romantic date.
"Brother Feng, come here. I knew Brother Feng was a capable person. Whether I can get a wife in the future depends on you.”Li Dahai and Liu Xiu were about the same age, and they lived next door. Every time they went home, they would drag Liu Xiu for a drink, so they had a good relationship.
"How many do you plan to marry?" Liu Xiu asked with a smile.
Li Dahai was stunned. He only had the concept of marrying a wife, but he had never thought about it. While he was still thinking about it, his father slapped him." I've only married one. How many more do you want to marry?”
"It's impossible for a student to surpass his master!”Li Dahai sat further away and said unwillingly.
Liu Xiu couldn't help but laugh. This matter was indeed better than his. The large woman smiled and asked the man,"Do you think I'm the only one who's losing out?”
"No loss, no loss." Li Tiezhu might look tall and burly, but in front of the large woman, he was as obedient as a cat.
With his mother's support, Li Dahai immediately became smug. Liu Xiu was smiling. Every time he ate with this family, he was always happy. After dinner, Li Dahai ran to Liu Xiu and asked mysteriously,""Brother Feng, I heard that you attracted two beauties from the city to our Shi Qiao Village. Tell me how you did it?”
Without asking, Liu Xiu knew that this kind of gossip was said by the large woman. He smiled and asked,"You saw the right girl in the city."
"No, I haven't." Li Dahai's embarrassed look had long betrayed him. This child was extremely pure.
"Dahai, what do you think is the difference between the city and the village?”Liu Xiu asked.
"The city is clean and tidy, with convenient transportation and a big hospital.”Li Dahai thought for a moment and answered.
"That's right. What you said are the advantages of the city. What do you think are the advantages of the village?”Liu Xiu smiled. It seemed like this kid didn't know enough.
"In the village, it's just that the air is better.”Li Dahai thought about it and could not think of anything good. If it was good, there would not be so many people buying houses and living in the city.
"That's right, it's about the air and the environment. Shoushan is planning to sell the air, so why don't we enjoy it? Let me ask you again, if our village becomes clean and tidy, with convenient transportation, hospitals, and schools, do you think the village is better or the city?”Liu Xiu began to paint a big picture again. He did not realize that he was about to become the sect master recently.
"If that's the case, then it must be the village. But it's unlikely. I know that Brother Feng has earned a lot of money recently, but it's not a small amount of money to do this well. Brother Feng, if you have that money, you might as well live a happy life in the city.”Li Dahai was no longer a child. He had his own judgment. When he was working in the city, he had heard a lot of things and had a certain understanding of this society.
"Look, you're wrong again. You said just now that if we had the conditions in the city, our place would be better than the city. Why would I go back to the city? There's air that can't be bought here, green game that can't be eaten, and natural scenery that can't be seen.”Liu Xiu had no choice but to correct Li Dahai's point of view again. He was right, but from now on, Shi Qiao Village would have to change this way of thinking and change a certain style.
