"Okay, I see that quite a lot of people do buy braised food."
Li Mingqing went to the small house next door and took a walk around.
The shop is too small, just right for selling braised food.
It's just right for four small tables.
But once you open a store, you have to find someone to look after it.
Now we don’t have to worry about the source of customers, our reputation has already spread.
"Wife, come with me to the textile factory later and ask my second sister-in-law, her sister-in-law Zhao Xiaohua, if she is willing to come to the store to help."
Sun Jiaxue smiled and said, "No need to go. My second sister-in-law came over and talked about this yesterday. She's very willing."
"Okay, wait until the braised food shop next door opens and ask Zhao Xiaohua to come over."
"But I'm afraid everyone in the village will want to come, and there might be conflicts."
Li Mingqing comforted him, "Maybe it was possible before, but now the village has greenhouses and can make a lot of money."
“But they’re not sure how much money they can make.”
"I've already made the price clear to them, and they definitely have no objections. The villagers don't really want to leave. They're more comfortable in the village. Once they leave, everything is out of their control, and they're afraid of the unknown."
Not to mention working outside in a store.
Especially women, what the village ladies say is no joke.
Sun Jiaxue had not returned to the village with him several times before, and the villagers spread rumors that she had run away with the money.
Sun Jiaxue agreed with what he said.
Although many villagers want to make money, they are unwilling to leave the village and go to a place where they are unfamiliar with.
After the guests left, Li Mingqing went to the kitchen to find Zheng Dalei.
Zheng Dalei was wiping the sweat from his forehead with a towel.
"Boss, when did you get here? I'll cook you a dish."
"Stop working. Here's your salary."
Looking at the thick stack of money, Zheng Dalei's hands trembled with excitement.
He and Zheng Hang no longer had to worry about going hungry.
These wages are very reassuring and give me more and more hope.
——
Lijia Village.
Li Xiangjun was very pleased to see the positive efforts of the villagers.
There is no need to urge people to come to the greenhouse to work.
They go to the greenhouse to work on time every day according to the schedule assigned by Li Xiangjun.
The old village chief, Old Man Li and a few other old men were sitting next to the greenhouse chatting.
"Old Li, your Mingqing is really promising."
"The key point is that he doesn't forget his roots and still wants to help us."
"A few days ago, some educated youth were chatting at the educated youth center. I overheard them when I passed by. I heard that their business is booming."
"People in the city are just rich. Is that why so many people go to restaurants to eat?"
"Yeah, there's no such thing as so much money."
…
As he listened to everyone's words, the smile on Old Man Li's face never faded.
During this period, his status in the village was extremely high, and he became a guest of honor.
The villagers knew that he was alone at home and would often call him home for dinner.
He declined them all.
A man who has eaten someone's food should be grateful and a man who has received someone's gift should be soft-hearted.
He can't hold his younger son back when he's out there making his own way.
Old Man Li said, "The vegetables in the greenhouse will be able to be sold soon."
"That's great! I can't sleep just thinking about it."
Zhao Laogen said, "A few days ago, people from the neighboring village passed by the back of the village and asked what we were doing. They built a shed just to prepare for the winter."
"Of course I am. Some people asked me that when I went to the market."
Li Mingfu said, "To be honest, Xiang Jun and I have been asked this question several times."
The town has taken Lijia Village's greenhouse vegetable cultivation as a pilot project.
The planting plan written by Li Mingqing was kept safely in the mayor's drawer.
When Li Mingqing came back, he found it strange that he didn't see anyone on the main road in the center of the village.
Usually, three, four or five villagers gather together to chat.
There is no one here today.
On second thought, they should all be behind the village.
He went over to take a look, and sure enough, they were all there.
Wang Dazhu saw him coming back and shouted, "Ming Qing is back!"
Everyone looked up, stood up happily and surrounded him.
Li Mingqing was shocked by the enthusiasm of the villagers.
He joked, "You scared me so much, I thought you were going to surround me and beat me up."
"What are you talking about? You are a great contributor to Lijia Village."
Li Xiangjun praised.
"I don't dare to take the credit for the contribution. I just made a small suggestion. It's the villagers who contributed."
Lin Yan said, "I heard that you didn't charge for these seedlings. You are a great hero, aren't you? Farmers have plenty of strength."
Zhou Daqiang echoed, "We may not have the money, but we have the strength."
“How are the vegetables in the greenhouse?”
"Everything is fine. The seedlings are good and growing very fast."
Li Mingqing added, "Fellow villagers, if the cabbages and radishes you planted are about to be harvested, if you have any left over from eating them, you can sell them to me."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Tiezhu lamented, "What a pity. I should have planted more."
Zhang Ergou said casually, "Dad, the vegetable garden is so small, even if we want to plant more, we can't plant much."
"Children should not interrupt when adults are talking."
"I'm about to get married, I'm not a child anymore."
Old Lady Zhang smiled and said, "Grandson, even if you are thirty or forty, you are still a child in the eyes of your parents."
Li Mingqing smiled as he looked at the happy Zhang family.
When Mrs. Zhang came back from prison, she never could have imagined such a harmonious scene.
Wang Dafeng said, "Is Ergou going to talk about a wife? My Jinbao hasn't said anything yet."
"It's time for your Zhaodi to find a husband."
Qin Chenglan kindly reminded.
A girl should get married when she grows up. Delaying it will only make her an enemy.
"Don't worry, girl. Just stay at home and work for a few more years." Wang Dafeng said calmly.
