After the usual work inquiries, Li Laishan finally brought the topic to the purpose of this trip. He asked,"Village Chief Liu, I heard that there was a black bear attack in your Stone Bridge Village recently?”
"No, no one in Shiqiao Village was attacked by bears.”Liu Xiu denied it. Without waiting for Li Laishan to finish speaking, he said,"But two days ago, there was an incident where a black bear attacked someone. On the way home, our village secretary lost control of his motorcycle and fell because he saw a black bear. I heard that it was quite serious.”
Li Laishan was stunned for a moment. He could tell that Liu Xiu was trying to say that the black bear attack had nothing to do with Shi Qiao Village. Indeed, the location of the incident was outside Shi Qiao Village." If I remember correctly, the location of the incident was in your Shi Qiao Village's territory, right?”
"Yes, yes!" Liu Xiu hurriedly nodded. Seeing that Liu Xiu was on the right track, Li Laishan was still not happy when Liu Xiu said,"Did everyone hear that? County Head Li said that the land belongs to our Shiqiao Village. If anyone dares to say that it belongs to them in the future, we'll fight them to the death.”
"I heard you." A dozen villagers shouted at the same time. Li Laishan was about to say something but was stopped. He couldn't understand why he had fallen into the pit he had dug. He hurriedly said,"I really don't understand this situation. Your village should have a decision on this matter.”
"Oh! The place where the black bear hurt people is not in our Stone Bridge Village.”Liu Xiu's bold words almost made Li Laishan vomit blood. After a long time, they had come back to the point where they had two choices. Either that piece of land belonged to them, or the black bear had nothing to do with them. This relationship was too good. At this moment, Li Laishan could not say that the land belonged to Shiqiao Village. If it was tossed around, it would look bad.
"No matter who owns the land, we have to deal with it if something happens. What if one day, they run into the village and bite the villagers?”Li Laishan couldn't bring himself to question him, so he had to find another way.
"Don't worry, County Head Li. If the bear dares to run into the village, we will definitely make sure he doesn't return.”Liu Xiu replied loudly.
"That's a protected animal. You can't kill it.”Li Laishan hurriedly said.
"Then what does County Head Li want us to do?”Liu Xiu was very cooperative and asked in a difficult manner.
Li Laishan was depressed again. Why did he say that he couldn't kill them? Let them kill them. If they killed him, they could deal with them. Now, how would he know what to do? He had never seen a bear before, so he could only say,"Let's capture him alive and send him to the zoo.”
"Will the zoo pay?" Liu Xiu wanted to thoroughly disgust Li Laishan to death today. After chasing away his son, his father came. This family was not a good thing.
"You still want money?" Li Laishan glared at him and said.
"If he doesn't pay, who's going to catch bears for him? If he scratches us, who's going to pay for the medical expenses?”Liu Xiu muttered softly.
Li Laishan was speechless. How could he explain this? The villagers did not have the obligation to catch bears for the zoo. Seeing that Li Laishan did not speak for a long time, Liu Xiu asked bluntly,"County Head Li, is there anything else? If there's nothing else, we're going to eat. It's already noon.”
"No." Li Laishan replied.
"Alright, County Head Li's inspection is over. Everyone, go back to your homes and eat.”Liu Xiu shouted, and everyone dispersed. Li Laishan, the secretary, and the driver were dumbfounded. No one had invited them to dinner. This was the first time that the county head had come, but he didn't even invite them to dinner.
"Let's go!" Li Laishan's face was dark as he led the way. He had originally come to denounce them, but in the end, he had been covered in dust. If this matter were to spread, how would he still have the face to face others?
The more worried he was, the more likely it would happen. After a weekend, when he went to work on Monday, Li Laishan noticed that people were looking at him strangely and whispering behind his back. He called his secretary over and asked. He was furious. There were rumors going around that he went to Shiqiao Village to make things difficult for his son. He couldn't get back at his son and was kicked out.”
"You didn't spread the news, did you?”Liu Xiu also heard the news. This rumor was really killing people. He didn't treat County Head Li to a meal, so how did he kick him out? Did he have the guts to do so?
The large woman chuckled and said,"This has nothing to do with me."”
Li Laishan's reputation was ruined, but Liu Xiu and Shiqiao Village's reputation was unprecedentedly high. When Wang Xiaojun heard the secretary's gossip, he laughed and said excitedly,"Let's go to Shiqiao Village tomorrow."
The deputy county head had just left for a few days, and this official came. Wang Xiaojun was different from Li Laishan. He was not here to denounce the crime, but to deliver welfare. Every family had a bag of rice, a bag of noodles, and a barrel of oil. Although Shi Qiao Village was not short of money now, these things were not worth much. However, the villagers 'faces were filled with joy. In the afternoon, they killed rabbits and entertained County Head Ding. In the afternoon, they accompanied County Head Ding to see the beautiful scenery of Shi Qiao Village. County Head Ding reluctantly left Shiqiao Village.
They were both people, but the difference between them was like heaven and earth. This caused Li Laishan's reputation to be even more ruined. Even the county party secretary behind him criticized him. This was the most aggrieved day in Li Laishan's life. He was actually tricked by a small village chief. He had to take revenge. However, if he wanted to take revenge, he had to find a suitable opportunity. Otherwise, he would become a deputy county magistrate bullying the village chief.
The development of the matter greatly surprised Liu Xiu. He vaguely felt that there were two hands behind this that were pushing the change in this matter. However, he did not think too much about it. The battle at that level was still very far away from him. As long as they did not provoke him, he could do whatever he wanted. It had nothing to do with him.
As the New Year approached, the people of Shiqiao Village gathered at Liu Xiu's house. Each of them carried a small stool and waited for the village chief to hold a meeting. All of them were smiling so brightly that flowers were about to bloom. This was because they had long known that today was the day to divide the money.
"This year, I'm afraid that no one knows how much money our Shi Qiao Village has earned. To be honest, I didn't count either. I was shocked when I saw it last night, but I've earned quite a bit and spent quite a bit.”Liu Xiu laughed.
"There's no need to go through so much trouble. Just give us a rough idea.”As soon as Old Master Liu Changnian spoke, everyone immediately responded. Some even said that they could just tell them how much was left and how much they could get.
" So far, our total income is 52.37 million," Liu Xiu said." We've spent 20 million, leaving 32.37 million."”
Everyone was shocked. Everyone knew that the village had made money, but they did not know that there was so much. After a while, they gave the people time to digest it. Liu Xiu said,"According to our contract, 30% will belong to everyone. This money should have been distributed to everyone, but because there are still many things that need to be spent next year, I want to keep 50% of the funds as collective funds to ensure the operation of some things next year.”
"No, you have the final say in this matter.”The crowd laughed excitedly as they responded to Liu Xiu's suggestion.
"Okay, then according to the ratio, everyone should get 4.85 million. I can't decide how to divide this money. There are two ways. One is to divide it according to the number of people and distribute the money equally to all the people in Shiqiao Village. The other is to divide it according to the number of households and distribute this money to the 32 households we have. As for how to divide it among our own families, that's our own business.”On this point, Liu Xiu did not have any good ideas. He felt that it was better to leave it to everyone to decide. In the face of benefits, it was easy to create problems.
The representatives of the thirty-two families gathered together to discuss. Some wanted to split the profits according to the number of people, while others wanted to split the profits according to the number of households. No matter how simple and honest a person was, they knew how to fight for their own interests. Liu Changnian looked at their faces and was unhappy. He scolded angrily," A bunch of f * ckers. We didn't have so much money in the past, and we didn't see you guys starve to death. Now that we have money, have you forgotten who you are? You can die if you have more or less. We'll split it according to the number of people. The rules have been set today. Whoever marries a wife and has children will be counted as one, but the number of children can't exceed two. The country is carrying out family planning, so we can't cause trouble for the village chief.”
Under the authority of Old Master Liu Changnian, this adjustment was settled. There were a total of 263 people registered in Shiqiao Village, so each person could get 17,000 yuan. For example, the large woman's family of three had an extra 50,000 yuan for no reason. They were all grinning from ear to ear.
Even though the issue of the dividends had passed, the impact was far from over. The people in the surrounding villages were envious when they heard that Shiqiao Village was so beautiful. Whoever had a young lady would head straight to Shiqiao Village to marry her off. Those who had young men would have matchmakers every day. Li Dahai would hide from Liu Xiu every morning. Why would he look at Liu Xiu? He would definitely follow him. He could not go home anyway. Otherwise, everyone would look at him like he was a gorilla.
"It's all because of the money!" Li Dahai sighed.
"Why don't you just bring your little girlfriend back?”Liu Xiu laughed.
"I want to wait for our new house to be built, then bring her back and let her see the style of our Stone Bridge Village.”Li Dahai scratched his head and said.
"Why? Don't you think our village is bad now?”Liu Xiu asked jokingly.
"With you, Xiu-Er, it won't be bad." Li Dahai had complete faith in Liu Xiu. Even if Liu Xiu said that the sun rose from the west, he would still believe him because he felt that there was nothing Liu Xiu could not do.
"Stop flattering me. I'm telling you, we can't despise the poor and love the rich just because we have money. What happened in the past will happen in the future, understand?”Liu Xiu saw that there were a few kids in the village who were running out of the village. Li Dahai was right." This is all because of money."”
"Don't worry, Xiu-Er. I promise I'll be honest.”Li Dahai said.
"Don't show off your wealth." Liu Xiu laughed.
"No, yes, it's acting tough. We have to act tough to the end, just like you, Xiu-Er.”Li Dahai shook his head and said excitedly.
Liu Xiu rolled his eyes speechlessly. So, in this guy's heart, he was just a pretentious person. But speaking of which, he did look a little like him. He had hundreds of millions of assets and tens of millions of assets, but he lived in this small mountain village and ate cornbread porridge every day. If this wasn't pretentious, what was it?
Li Dahai also realized that he had said something wrong. He smiled at Liu Xiu in embarrassment. Liu Xiu became smug and said,""Pretending is also a skill. You can slowly learn it.”
