Chapter 71 Li Hongjun's Speculation
If they add a supply and marketing cooperative and a grocery store, they will no longer be Huaixi Village, but should be changed to Huaixi Commune or Huaixi County.
Zhou Yong scratched his head and chuckled, "It's getting more and more outrageous."
Knowing it was outrageous, Zhou Yong somehow added the supply and marketing cooperative and the grocery store, and then he added a hospital.
If these hardware facilities existed, the villagers of Huaixi Village would not have to leave the village for shopping or medical treatment.
Zhou Yong is very satisfied with his construction. Although he knows that many things cannot be achieved now, he still wants to live that kind of life.
"Add a children's playground, build a middle school, then build a university, and yes, a park..."
With primary schools, middle schools and universities, children in Huaixi Village don’t need to go out to study.
"Zhou Yong, you haven't gotten off work yet? What are you busy with?"
When Zhou Yong heard Li Hongjun's voice, the pen in his hand paused, and he looked up at his brother-in-law.
"You guys are back from the mountain?"
Li Hongjun wiped the sweat off his forehead and said, "More than 30 pieces of wood have been transported back to the village."
Zhou Yong said "oh", picked up the pen cap and closed the pen. Li Hongjun came up to him and stretched his neck to look at his desk.
"How much free time do you have? You're actually painting."
draw?
Zhou Yong curled his lips and said without any hesitation: "If you don't understand, don't talk nonsense."
Li Hongjun sat down on the stool: "What's there for me not to understand? Aren't you just drawing?"
Zhou Yong smiled softly and explained the plan to Li Hongjun.
Li Hongjun didn't take it seriously at first, but the boy became more and more excited as he listened.
"Brother, what's wrong with you?"
Li Hongjun's body was shaking with excitement, and Zhou Yong thought he was not feeling well!
However, the next second, Li Hongjun slapped Zhou Yong on the shoulder, causing him to grimace in pain.
Li Hongjun's voice trembled: "Zhou Yong, I, Li Hongjun, am willing to work like a slave for you all my life..."
Zhou Yong: “…?”
Following Li Hongjun's words, Zhou Yong realized that he was impressed by his talent.
Zhou Yong was a little amused and confused about this realization.
"Brother, don't get excited. This is just my plan. It's not certain whether it can be realized."
Li Hongjun said: "You are doing a good thing to benefit the villagers. If everyone knows about it, they will definitely support you..."
Zhou Yong raised his hand and touched his nose: "It's not that simple. This is a big project. It will take at least three to five years to complete the plan..."
Building a house with stone is not an easy task. It requires manpower to chisel the stone into blocks bit by bit, and then transport them back to build a house. He conservatively estimated that it would take three to five years.
Li Hongjun smiled and said: "Let alone three to five years, everyone will agree even if it takes ten to eight years. After all, building a house once can accommodate several generations, which is better than having several generations living in the current house..."
The houses with braided roofs need to be repaired once a year in the early spring, otherwise the roofs will easily leak.
Zhou Yong agreed with Li Hongjun's point of view. After all, if the houses were built, all the villagers in Huaixi Village would benefit.
The two started a discussion on this topic. Although Li Hongjun is a rough guy, this guy has an extremely flexible brain.
Through this communication, Zhou Yong discovered another side of Li Hongjun and felt that he would be a big shot in the future.
"We are just talking about this. It is getting dark. Let's go home and eat..."
Zhou Yong packed up the things on his desk and left the brigade with Li Hongjun.
On the way to Li Hongjun's house, they met a lot of people, and many of them took the initiative to greet Zhou Yong.
"These people always flatter the powerful and bully the weak."
After hearing Li Hongjun's unfair words, Zhou Yong said: "Isn't that how people are? I'm used to it."
Li Hongjun sighed: "I'm just wondering, why don't you explain the matter with Bai Jie to everyone?"
Didn't he explain?
He explained it before, but people just didn't believe him, and gradually he became too lazy to explain anymore.
After hearing Zhou Yong's expression, Li Hongjun couldn't help but feel guilty: "You are right. Some explanations may not be believed by others."
Zhou Yong smiled and looked forward: "Whoever wants to say anything about me can say it, I don't care anymore."
Li Hongjun was not in the mood: "Don't be like this, I feel really bad when you say that."
Zhou Yong was amused: "Why are you feeling bad? Why don't you point your finger at me and scold me?"
Li Hongjun cleared his throat awkwardly and said guiltily: "Didn't you scold me too? Let's not talk about the past. It's all my fault, okay?"
As they were talking, they arrived at Li Hongjun's house, and his wife had already prepared dinner.
Zhou Yong walked into the room and took a look at the dining table, and couldn't help but squint his eyes.
In order to make amends, Li Hongjun emptied out all his family assets.
Pickled chicken, duck, fish and rabbit meat, two cold dishes and two stir-fried dishes.
Zhou Yong looked at Li Hongjun and said, "Brother, are you not going to live anymore?"
Li Hongjun smiled proudly and pulled him to take off his shoes and sit on the kang: "What's this little thing? You can eat it."
Zhou Yong raised his eyebrows, sensing something behind his words, but he didn't rush to ask.
After three rounds of drinks, Zhou Yong tried to get Li Hongjun to talk, and soon he found out the truth.
"Let me tell you, I still have a lot of mountain products stored in my cellar..."
According to Li Hongjun himself, his family's cellar is now filled with all kinds of mountain products. When they are almost dried, he will sell them through his brother-in-law.
Not only did he do this, but under his influence, other members of the Li family also did this.
But they don't make it public. After all, it's a speculation business and they make a fortune quietly behind closed doors.
Zhou Yong: Damn, these bastards, they all made a fortune quietly without even bringing him along. No wonder the Li family is so arrogant, it turns out they have a way of making money.
"Zhou Yong, I'll tell you the truth. All the pickled game is sold in the south. It's not selling well in our area..."
"It seems your eldest brother has connections?"
Li Hongjun lowered his voice and said, "There was an educated youth from the south in their village who sold things through someone else..."
This is the principle, and Zhou Yong said that he had never seen anyone from Hongqi Commune shipping pickled game.
"Does my father-in-law know about this?"
Li Hongjun shook his head: "Don't you know what kind of person my third uncle is? He is impartial and ruthless. If he knew that we were speculating and profiteering, he would not only cut off our source of income, but also criticize and educate us..."
Zhou Yong took a bite of the food and thought that Li Baotian was capable of doing such a thing.
"Then why are you crying poor in front of my father-in-law when you have nothing to do?"
Li Hongjun took a sip of wine and said, "What do you know? My third uncle knows everything about my family. If I don't act pitiful from time to time, won't my third uncle get suspicious?"
Zhou Yong gave a thumbs up and expressed his admiration for Li Hongjun.
The two drank and chatted, and before they knew it, it was eight o'clock.
Seeing that it was getting late, Zhou Yong suggested going home, but the drunk Li Hongjun insisted on sending him home.
The two of them left Li's house arm in arm, and before Zhou Yong got home, they met Li Caiyun on the way.
Seeing this, Li Hongjun went back with a smile. Zhou Yong repeatedly reminded him to be careful.
Looking at Li Hongjun who was staggering away, Li Caiyun frowned: "How much did you drink, brother?"
Zhou Yong couldn't remember how much they drank, but they just kept chatting and drinking.
The couple walked home while talking, and soon they arrived home...
