After Chen Zhifang and Wang Youtian were taken away, the village lost its backbone for a while, so Chen Youpeng had to come out temporarily to calm everyone's emotions.
As one of the insiders, Chen Youpeng naturally knew everything, and he had already thought of his own words: "Listen to me, folks, this is what happened..."
According to Chen Youpeng's narration, the other villagers in Qingshan Village who were not involved in the winery probably knew what had happened. It turned out that the village had secretly built the winery in order to make more money.
Some people think it is understandable. After all, who doesn’t want to make money? There is a steel plant in Hexi Village next door, which has solved many economic problems. Why can’t their village do the same?
But some people murmured, "Don't think it's so good. The team leader and secretary made money without taking us with them. They secretly built the factory and sold the wine. Where is the money? The money is not in our hands."
"That's right. They say this is about leading the whole village to make money, but there are only 30 of them who are actually involved. Why can't they let us join in too?"
Chen Youpeng asked everyone to calm down first. They could explain all this. "Don't worry. We don't have that many orders at the beginning, so we don't have to take them all. Later on, when the branch factory is finalized, no one will be left out. Besides, when did we say that you don't have a share of this money?"
The crops in the fields are planted by everyone together. Who contributed more and who contributed less is clearly recorded in the work points book. Grain is indispensable for brewing wine. No matter how capable the people in the winery are, it is impossible for them to do both farming and working. The fruits of Qingshan Village belong to everyone, and this is indisputable.
"That's about right. We have so much more land this year, so the hard work is doubled. Although there are not many strong laborers in my family, all the adults and children are idle." This was said by Yang Guimei from the village. The husband in her family is paralyzed, and she supports her husband and three children alone.
When Yang Guimei first heard about the selection of strong laborers to join the winery, she felt uncomfortable. When would it be their family's turn for such a good thing? Now that she knew that the village had not forgotten them, her heart ached and she burst into tears. This year was really tiring. She had to do twice as much work. She didn't know how much money she could get at the end of the year and whether it would be enough for her husband's medical expenses.
When she cried, several poor families also shed tears. Although the villagers often took care of them, who would not want to earn more?
Fu Baoer didn't expect such a big reaction and felt helpless. They did this just to make sure that the people in the village no longer had to worry about their livelihood every day.
However, it wasn't just the villagers of Qingshan Village who were present. Lü Wei and the others were also there. Seeing that everyone was still brooding over whether they had made money or not, Lü Wei immediately became angry. The seriousness of the matter between the secretary and the captain wasn't just about money. "Is this the time to be thinking about money? You should be thinking about whether the captain and the secretary can come back. Humph, if you keep engaging in 'selfishness', you might end up in jail!"
"Who are you? Do you have the right to speak?" Some people in the village immediately became unhappy. Is it the turn of an outsider to point fingers at their village affairs?
Lu Wei was scolded, but he was not angry. "I don't know what I am, but your village will really be nothing in the commune from now on!"
Those words were unpleasant to the ears. Someone rolled up their sleeves and threatened to punish Lü Wei. She was so frightened that she hid behind Wang Qiang. Wang Qiang, who had always disliked her, was now even more annoyed. "Comrade Lü Wei, please apologize to the villagers immediately. The matter between the captain and the secretary has not yet been resolved. What qualifications do you have to shout here?"
"Lü Wei! You're the one who asked your uncle to write the accusation letter!" Tian Tian stood up and pointed at Lü Wei. "Fellow villagers, I testify. I heard it all. She and Sun Danniu teamed up to report the team leader and the secretary!"
Sun Danniu's face turned pale. She quietly hid in the crowd and wanted to leave, but when she turned around, she saw Fu Baoer standing behind her, smiling at her: "Let's go, tell the villagers what you have reported."
Fu Baoer's words attracted everyone's attention. Sun Danniu knew that she couldn't run away, so she had to quickly think about how to respond.
Tian Tian pointed at Sun Danniu and Lu Wei and said, "I heard them planning to send the captain and the secretary to jail the other day!"
"Is this true? These two people are not very old, how can they be so cruel!"
Fu Baoer quickly told the villagers about what happened when Sun Danniu discovered the winery, and the villagers became even angrier. It turned out that they failed to intimidate her last time, and she was still holding a grudge against them. This time it must be pure revenge!
Li Ying rushed out and slapped Sun Danniu. A trace of blood oozed from the corner of Sun Danniu's mouth, but her face showed no expression and she didn't defend herself. Li Ying felt ashamed and took the opportunity to vent her anger: "Bitch, just like her mother, she's a traitor and an ungrateful person. She will hurt anyone who treats her well!"
These words really touched everyone's heart. The team leader and the secretary have always been caring for the people in need in the village. During those very difficult years, they would rather starve themselves and save food for the elderly and children.
Who in the surrounding area wouldn't envy Qingshan Village for having two good cadres? Hexi Village next door may be wealthy, but everyone knows that the village secretary and his family are not easy to talk to.
Lu Wei was so scared that she didn't dare to speak. The educated youth ignored her and stood far away. She didn't understand. She had clearly done a good thing by reporting the case, so why did everyone look so angry?
"What should we do if the team leader and the secretary really go to jail?" Someone finally asked this question. In fact, everyone was hoping that Chen Zhifang and Wang Youtian would return safely. Based on their understanding of the two, even if they really built a factory secretly to make money, they definitely wanted to make the whole village rich together.
