"If we could get up there, life would have been much better long ago."
Lu Jinguang could not hide his irritability and felt very upset. As the village head, he naturally hoped that the villagers could live well.
But now, after a year of hard work, after deducting the share given to the commune, the remaining amount is barely enough for the whole village to have enough to eat.
As for anything extra, there really isn't any at all.
If there were even the slightest way to resolve this situation, Lu Jinguang would not allow this mess to continue to develop.
Song Qinghe narrowed her eyes: "I have a way. Village chief, do we have any carpenters or blacksmiths in our village?"
"Give me a carpenter and a blacksmith, and I guarantee I'll find a way to increase productivity."
"real?"
Lu Jinguang expressed doubt, but more than that, he hoped that it might be true. If what Song Qinghe said was true, even if it had only a little effect, the conflict between the educated youth and the villagers would be greatly alleviated.
Even a tenth increase in productivity would be acceptable.
Song Qinghe nodded: "Three days."
Lu Jinguang: "Isn't this time too short?"
Song Qinghe: "It's not short, it's enough. You can see how it goes later, and we can discuss the specifics then."
"Please try to appease them first. Even if they want to cause trouble, please wait three days before doing so."
"Okay, I believe you." Lu Jinguang believed Song Qinghe's words almost without hesitation.
The main reason is that she has a convincing power; if I didn't believe her, I would be incredibly stupid.
There might be a pleasant surprise!
Lu Jinguang said, "I'll take care of them. I'll have the carpenter and blacksmith work with you. You don't need to come to the fields for the next three days. You can focus on figuring out how to improve productivity."
Song Qinghe was taken aback: "Is this... appropriate?"
She just wanted a place to build a house, even if it was under the guise of government authority.
They never considered escaping work, as the conflict between the educated youth and the villagers' families was already quite acute.
If I skip work again, wouldn't that make the conflict between us even worse?
Lu Jinguang steeled his heart and said, "That's fine. If they have any objections, let them come and talk to me."
He was willing to risk everything; he understood the principle that you can't catch a wolf without risking your cub.
He could tell from Song Qinghe's serious tone that she wasn't joking.
What if it works out?
Lu Jinguang turned around and looked at the mess behind him, feeling rather annoyed.
The situation is bad enough as it is now, it can't get any worse.
Thinking of this, Lu Jinguang calmed himself down and said coldly, "Lu Jinbao, Zhao Dahe, you two come here."
One of them was a carpenter, and the other was a blacksmith; both were seasoned masters with many years of experience.
I should be able to cooperate with Song Qinghe and fulfill her request.
He still has that much confidence.
Lu Jinbao and Zhao Dahe were enjoying the show when they were suddenly called out.
Zhao Dahe said in a loud voice, "Village chief, I didn't get into a fight, and that educated youth wasn't staying at my house. You can't blame me for this!"
“Me too.” Lu Jinbao was not good with words, but when he heard Zhao Dahe say that, he immediately followed suit and said the same thing.
But he was also very tall and strong, so when he spoke, he sounded just like Zhang Fei.
Song Qinghe couldn't help but burst out laughing—
