Chapter 593 Frustration
Watching Su Shuoci leave, the village chief smiled and spoke to several village cadres around him.
"You guys go and divide up all the clothes later, so that everyone can be happy."
Everyone echoed, "Great, great, great, big brother Su is amazing, I don't know where he got all these nice clothes from."
"He is a very capable person. Don't you see how beautiful the clothes he is wearing are?"
"I saw it. Not only is it very nice, but it also looks very expensive. I don't know where it was bought."
"Oh, you're still asking about these things. Even if you know where to buy them, you can't afford them!"
"Hey, am I just curious? People who buy clothes have good taste!"
Su Shuoci didn't have any feelings about the other words, except for the sentence, "People who buy clothes have good taste", which he liked very much.
He couldn't help but look back at the man. Being able to join the village cadre team before the age of 30, he did have some ability.
Su Shuoci noticed him, and perhaps his medicinal herb garden could be handed over to him for management.
Wang Chuanli didn't know yet that good luck was about to come to him. He was still looking at Su Shuoci's tall back with shining eyes, full of admiration.
Su Ermei didn't go to the village entrance to wait. She heard that her eldest brother was coming back to the village, so she was busy slaughtering chickens and stewing meat.
These were given to her eldest brother by the villagers. In recent days, her family of three has eaten meat every day.
She had to prepare a good meal to welcome her elder brother, so she was willing to do the work.
Daya went to reclaim wasteland with her father. Hu Yungen dug the ground and Daya collected firewood. The father and daughter cooperated very well.
The Hu family now wants to curry favor with Su Ermei, so they don't dare to go to the Su family to ask for money.
The youngest son of the Hu family lost his temporary job in town because of his sister's divorce.
He could only go home dejectedly to farm, but he hadn't held a hoe for years, and his hands were covered with blisters after just one day of work.
Old Mrs. Hu loved her youngest son dearly, so even at her old age she went to open up wasteland herself, leaving her youngest son to follow her and collect firewood.
As long as they don't act like a troublemaker, the villagers won't deliberately make things difficult for them. After all, the villagers are simple and honest.
The Wang family had a lot of laborers, and because they were paid wages every day, they had a good income and a lot of firewood left over.
So they were full of energy and reconciled their previous fight with Hu Yungen.
The new mayor arrived at Shuanghe Village early in the morning, and what he saw was a joyful scene of harmony and happiness.
He not only brought the town's cadre team, but also brought other village heads to study together.
He first announced some matters concerning the busy farming season next year, and also told the villagers that Shuanghe villagers would become a base for growing medicinal herbs.
Reclaiming wasteland and planting medicinal herbs is a method worth learning for other villagers.
You can choose to grow the herbs yourself, or you can choose to contract it out to one person and then hire other people to grow the herbs.
No matter how it is grown, as long as the variety is good or bad, Comrade Su Shuoci is willing to buy it at the market price and will not charge any tax.
The mayor also said that if anyone has the courage, they can plant all the medicinal herbs in their home.
Su Shuoci is willing to lead everyone in growing medicinal herbs. This is for the good of the people in his hometown. He hopes that everyone can have enough food and clothing.
Medicinal herbs are good things. If you can grow them well, you can also get rewards from the government.
This is the government's responsibility to everyone and a compensation for the people's pioneering spirit.
The mayor said many encouraging words, but no one in the village was willing to grow their own medicinal herbs.
They like to work every day and see the benefits and get cash on the same day. They think waiting for future income is too long.
Everyone just wants to make money to support their family. If their income is delayed because of growing medicinal herbs, it would be a loss.
But no one stood up to speak, and the villagers just stood listlessly in the village's large grain drying ground.
No one responded to the mayor, and no one spoke in a low voice. They were all as quiet as chickens.
Even though they were anxious or had their own ideas, they dared not say a word. Nowadays, the mayor was someone they feared.
Seeing everyone like this, the mayor looked at Su Shuoci helplessly, "Comrade Su, is my idea wrong?"
He thought to himself that he just wanted to serve the people, but no one appreciated it!
"You are right. Their thoughts are understandable. They are worried that the harvest will be bad and that all their efforts will be in vain."
Su Shuoci looked at the crowd of people. Everyone was very restless. They were probably afraid that they would not have any income today. He raised his hands and said, "Everyone, please be patient. Everyone present today will be paid as usual. Wait..."
"Really? Brother Su, we didn't do any work today but we still got paid?" a man confirmed in disbelief.
"You heard it right, that's what Brother Su said, how dare you interrupt him?"
"Hey, I'm just worried that I can't hear clearly because of my tinnitus!"
"You heard me right. Most of the land in our village will be used to plant medicinal herbs next year. We will get paid for planting anyway, so whether the harvest is good or not is none of our business."
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
"Guosheng, there is something wrong with your thinking. How can you think like that? We must try our best to grow medicinal herbs, so as to be worthy of Brother Su."
"That's right, Xiaowu is right, a lazy bum like you deserves to be paid ten cents a day."
"Indeed, Gousheng from our village is not good at anything except eating, haha."
“…”
“…”
The villagers in the threshing ground were talking at once, and the scene suddenly became lively.
Mayor: ...
It turned out that Comrade Su's words about being paid could get everyone excited, and he even stayed up all night to write a wonderful speech!
For a moment, he thought the villagers didn't hear what he said! It turned out that they all heard it, but they just didn't respond. The young mayor felt frustrated.
Su Shuoci patted his shoulder soothingly: "Go on."
"Comrade Su, please tell me. I will learn from your ideas with everyone else."
"Then I won't be polite." After Su Shuoci finished speaking, he turned to everyone and said, "Everyone be quiet, now find a few people to buy a pig and slaughter it.
Our new mayor is having a pig-killing dinner today. We welcome the new mayor to Shuanghe Village with warm applause to guide our work. "
“Pah…Pah…Pah…”
Everyone applauded enthusiastically, with unprecedented enthusiasm. I guess everyone was happy to have pork to eat again.
The applause was extremely loud, but the young mayor didn’t know it!
His face turned red with excitement, "Yes, I will treat everyone to a pig-killing dinner today."
"Thank you, Mayor. You are such a good official."
"Thank you, Lord Qingtian."
“………”
The villagers' endless praises made Song Zijie cry. He leaned close to Su Shuoci's ear and whispered.
"It's true that whoever has milk is the mother. When they saw there was pork to eat, the villagers even called out Master Qingtian. Hahahaha... Brother Su, these villagers are so cute."
The atmosphere became much more harmonious afterwards, as Su Shuoci had already finalized the matter of growing medicinal herbs.
