I Led the Entire Village out of Poverty and to Prosperity

Tiger Mountain Village, a provincial-level poverty-stricken village, had worn out three successive poverty alleviation cadres, yet it still maintained a stagnant attitude.

After a continuous ...

Chapter 302: Boxed Lunch

As a parent-child education base with a tourist nature, it must have a wall.

Although it is not necessary to fence off the entire area now, as the construction progresses, warehouses, construction sites, etc. will need to be monitored to some extent. At several core construction sites, Mr. Hou of Tongda Cultural Tourism, who is responsible for the specific construction of the base, discussed with Gu Daqiang and decided to enclose them with fences first.

Within the fence, there are stationed workers who are responsible for patrolling. At the same time, Murakami also asked Tieniu to assign a team of security guards to help ensure that large-scale loss of construction materials will not occur.

Where there is a fence, there must be a gate.

It was at this gate that Huo Qianli saw a scene that surprised him.

Under the scorching sun, a tricycle was parked next to a shed, and several tables were arranged in the shape of a U under the shed.

A man was sitting at a deliberately lowered table, cutting vegetables skillfully and looking at the wheelchair under him. It was obvious that he had difficulty walking.

Behind the man, a woman in her thirties or forties was skillfully frying vegetables with a spatula over a fierce stove. Sweat flowed down her hair, sticking it to her cheeks, then flowed into her clothes, slowly soaking them.

Next to the two of them, a very old woman, with some difficulty, carried a bowl full of vegetables and placed it on a long table in the middle, along with a bag of foam lunch boxes and disposable karate sticks.

Huo Qianli turned his head and glanced at Jiang Hengyu, the director of the town party committee office who accompanied him. Jiang Hengyu shook his head, indicating that he didn't know the situation.

Seeing the looks of these people, Huo Qianli did not take the initiative to disturb them. He stood at the door and watched silently, ignoring the scorching sun above his head.

The three people over there saw him, but didn't come over to say hello. They were also busy with their work.

Fortunately, not long after, Gu Daqiang, who had just finished taking care of some urgent matters in the village, came over on a motorcycle.

Hearing the sound of the motorcycle, the woman who had just finished cooking a dish and was washing the pot looked up. Seeing that it was Gu Daqiang, she quickly put the pot on the stove, wiped her hands on her apron, and walked over quickly, "Village Chief Gu, what's the matter?"

Seeing Huo Qianli standing here and watching, Gu Daqiang, who probably guessed what he was thinking, quickly introduced: "Secretary Huo, this is Tian Xiaorong from Niujiao Village. They are here to sell some boxed lunches to the construction site. Xiaotian, this is Secretary Huo from the town, and Director Jiang from the town committee office."

Tian Xiaorong was startled and immediately at a loss. Then she thought about how Secretary Huo had been standing here for so long and she had ignored them, and her face was filled with fear.

She was afraid that Secretary Huo would be unhappy and stop allowing her to sell food here.

She thought that the two men dressed so neatly were bosses from somewhere who came to do business, but she didn't know that they were officials in the town!

I regret it now, very much!

Unexpectedly, Huo Qianli was not angry. He smiled gently and said, "Being busy is a good thing. We came to see you and will not disturb you. Go on with your work. I wish you a prosperous business."

Tian Xiaorong opened her mouth, "Secretary Huo, I......"

Gu Daqiang said, "Just do your thing. Secretary Huo is not that kind of person. Also, don't panic when he calls you man. Cut his vegetables well!"

Tian Xiaorong turned her head and saw her husband grunting and pushing a wheelchair towards her on the rugged road. She quickly apologized to Huo Qianli and the others and went back to stop her man.

"Selling lunch boxes on the construction site is a good business. How could the people of Hushan Village be willing to let them take advantage of this?"

After walking a few dozen meters, Huo Qianli finally asked.

Gu Daqiang smiled, "The most important thing is definitely what you said at the beginning, telling Murakami not to dwell on those small matters and to work together to get the big things done. Another point is..."

At this point, Gu Daqiang kept the topic a secret, "Do you still remember the poverty alleviation efforts of your leaders in Niujiao Village?"

"Remember, I found a job for the family I partnered with to transport vegetables to a base. They earned more than 2,000 yuan a month, which helped them escape poverty."

Huo Qianli answered directly, and then he suddenly realized, "I remember that the family Gao Yuanming went to at that time was a family that fell back into poverty due to disability. It was said that the man had a leg injury. Should it be this family?"

“Yes, but not entirely.”

Gu Daqiang said, "At that time, the nine of you formed a pair and it was reported in the newspaper. Later, you all thought of some solutions, and they gradually became effective. However, there were two families that were really not easy to deal with."

"One is Tian Xiaorong's. Not only did her husband's leg get injured, but he also seems to have other problems. He has been taking medicine and can't do heavy work. She can only stay at home to take care of him. The family has lost their source of income and has to spend money outside, so they are naturally very poor. The other is Mayor Cao's family. They have an orphan and a widow. The bastard is over 40 years old and is lazy all day. He has to drag the old lady in her 70s to serve him every day. Mayor Cao has made several trips and done many things, but they are useless. For the time being, he can only find a way to support the old lady."

Gu Daqiang wiped the sweat off his bald head, threw it on the ground, and said with a smile: "You set a rule that prohibits direct payment of money, so those two people are worried. When the construction of this base started, I suddenly thought of a solution for them."

Huo Qianli suddenly understood and nodded with a smile, "This is indeed a good idea. Tian Xiaorong is with her husband and can take care of her diet. My husband can also help cut some vegetables and so on. I guess that old lady is the mother who suffered a lot?"

Gu Daqiang sighed, and suddenly kicked a piece of wood on the roadside angrily, "It's only because of my status that I'm in trouble, otherwise I really want to pin that son of a bitch to the ground and beat him up, what a jerk, what a rotten dragon (rotten person)!"
