Chapter 177 Invite Him to Prepare New Year's Eve Dinner
Facing Mayor Hu, Liu Qi did not hide anything and said:
“To be honest, our village did have a good harvest.
How much food do you think our village has this year?"
"How many?"
Liu Qi stretched out two fingers.
Mayor Hu's eyes were bulging:
"One hundred thousand?"
Liu Qi nodded.
Not only was Mayor Hu extremely surprised, but the captains of other villages also gathered around him after hearing this, pointing at Liu Qi and saying something:
"Mr. Liu, you are too boastful, aren't you?"
"Our village has dozens more acres of arable land than theirs, but the yield is less than 100,000 catties, while theirs is 100,000 catties. Isn't that too much of a boast?"
"that is."
"I don't believe it."
"Their village must have cheated."
"Yes, I think so too."
Everyone felt that Liu Qi was suffering for his own sake.
I don't know where you got so much food.
They believed that Liu Qi had moved the grain from other places, so they paid more public grain.
Little do people know that the food they eat is almost the same.
Who would have surplus grain to lend to Liu Qi to confiscate?
So there is no problem of paying more.
Liu Qicai doesn't care what others think.
Zhou Zheng was also standing aside, and seeing that his father-in-law did not explain, he also remained silent.
It is a good thing if your own grain production is high, there is no need to advertise it everywhere.
He just wanted to live a good life with Liu Yu.
Now there are only two educated youth left from the village.
There is a possibility that these two people will stay in Qianjin Village and become members of this village.
Immediately afterwards, the village head also promoted the above spirit, which is to develop the rural economy well and not lag behind the country.
"You can find ways to increase the villagers' income and feed them, and that's the most important thing."
Some people also raised the question: "We farmers rely on farming to make a living. Is it possible to grow flowers on this kind of land?"
The village chief seized on his words and said:
“It would be great if we could grow flowers to supply the flower market.”
The village chief really dares to say that.
But the farmers dare not do so.
Even if I use the land to grow flowers, I still have to pay public grain at the end of the year. What should I do if I can't pay?
Is it difficult to buy food to pay it back?
It's simply not realistic.
The real thing is to grow crops honestly.
Zhou Zheng and Liu Qi stopped talking nonsense with those people from the village.
Both of them were in a hurry to get home.
After all, the public grain has been paid, and all that remains is to live a peaceful life and wait for the arrival of the New Year.
But we need to prepare well for the New Year, otherwise how can we celebrate the year?
Besides, this year is a year of bumper harvest, so we must enjoy it well.
Zhou Zheng has already started to think about it.
He walked to the passenger seat of the tractor and was about to light the fire when the village chief Hu stopped him.
"Xiao Zhou, don't leave yet. I have something to tell you."
Since it was Mayor Hu who had something to say, Liu Qi quickly asked Zhou Zheng to go.
"Go ahead, we'll leave later."
Mayor Hu took Zhou Zheng to his office and closed the door.
Liu Qi was standing outside the door, but was not allowed in.
This made Liu Qi a little curious about what the village chief Hu wanted to say to his son-in-law.
Zhou Zheng was also a little nervous at this time.
He sat upright in the chair in Township Chief Hu's office, looking at him seriously, waiting for him to speak.
The village chief Hu first lit a cigarette, blew out a puff of smoke, and took out an envelope.
