Back To 2005

"Mom and Dad, I'm back."

After not going home for a long time, Zhou Anan came to the factory at the entrance of the village. When he saw his parents who were busy, he shouted enthusiastically.

It is said that he did not go home during the first two times he returned to Lizhou. Counting this, apart from maintaining constant phone contact, it has been more than four months since he was at home during the last Chinese New Year.

Thanks to the booming business of my mother's online store, I didn't always urge him to go home like she did in my previous life. He was disliked within three days of returning home.

"I finally remembered that I came back. There is watermelon in the refrigerator. Go get it yourself."

Zhou Youliang, who was helping to load the goods, glanced at his son, pointed to the office, and started busy again, with relief in his eyes that no one else noticed.

Like most fathers in the world, Zhou Youliang misses his son in his heart. He just urges his wife to call his son every other day to greet him. He occasionally interjects a few words, but never makes it so obvious.

"Son, have you had lunch?"

As a mother, Wang Jingyu was immediately concerned about her son's diet.

"I ate in the city."

Zhou Anan walked to the refrigerator in the office and took out half a watermelon. Zhou Anan took a small spoon and ate it. While walking outside, he watched his parents working and dealt with their problems casually.

There was originally a reason to do a graduation thesis design experiment at school, so Zhou Anan could go home in August, but it was always a bit inappropriate to come back quietly today.

After briefly caring about his mother, whose business was booming, Zhou Anan looked at the scorching sun outside and took a nap at home.

The sun sets over the western mountains, and although the heat is still a bit heavy, it has subsided a lot.

After dinner, Zhou Anan walked half a circle around the village and found that the environmental sanitation had indeed improved a lot. Even the river water was much clearer, looking a bit like when he was a child.

Presumably, that elementary school classmate spent a lot of effort on this.

However, such a change in the village is enough to show that the elementary school classmates who listened to his opinions have gained a lot of prestige in the village.

"Dad, please drive the car for a moment and I'll go to the city."

Back home, Zhou Anan found his father who was busy in the factory and asked for the car keys.

Although Xiao Ping can come and pick him up at any time, Zhou Anan, who doesn't want to be sneaky, still thinks it's better to drive his father's car and go back and forth openly.

Occasionally driving a mid- to low-end model is also a unique aftertaste.

"Be careful on the road."

Taking out his Audi car key, Zhou Youliang gave instructions.

After the previous experience, he was quite assured of his son's driving skills.

"knew."

Taking over the somewhat rough Audi A4 car keys, Zhou Anan drove to Zijin Sunshine in the city.

After a brief rinse in the bathing area, Zhou Anan went upstairs to a large room and met his long-awaited elementary school classmates.

"An'an, drink tea."

Seeing his primary school classmates coming over, Zhou Xiaoke warmly invited them to sit down at the tea table and poured tea for them himself.

Since transferring the electric vehicle store, Zhou Xiaoke, who has more free time, has gradually learned many elegant hobbies, and making tea is one of them.

Whether it is Zijin Sunshine or Audi 4S store, there is a dedicated tea room for receiving important guests.

"You're feeling quite comfortable today."

After taking a look at the specially renovated tea room, Zhou Anan smiled and joked.

"It's just so so, I just mess around."

After chatting for a while, Zhou Xiaoke asked the other party a serious question: "How to do the cooperative restructuring you mentioned?"

After listening to the idea from his elementary school classmates, Zhou Xiaoke spent more than half a year completely changing the appearance of Zhoushui Village. The environmental sanitation has improved several levels, and he has also received awards from city leaders.

In the process, Zhou Xiaoke also settled some thorns that were dissatisfied with him and established considerable authority in the village.

Just to give an example, Zhou Xiaoke shouted in the village radio room to clean up the river tomorrow, and he could immediately mobilize a team of hundreds of people. Of course, the salary must not be less.

With this foundation, Zhou Xiaoke consciously met the first-stage requirements that his classmates in elementary school had told him, and felt that he could enter the second stage of village chiefship, integrate the resources of the whole village, and open up new situations.

"The current cooperative system is too loose and basically useless. If you want to implement the tourist town plan, you must get the support of the whole village. Restructuring through cooperatives is the fastest way."

Looking at the ambitious village chief Zhou Da, Zhou Anan also explained to him the restructuring plan planned by someone else.

In fact, the core content is very simple, allowing the whole village to invest in shares, whether with farmland or capital.

Once all villagers have become real shareholders of the cooperative, there will not be much resistance to the construction of tourist towns.

In Zhou Anan's "plan", Zhoushui Village can choose to plagiarize the "Flower Sea" plan of the neighboring city many years later in advance and create a hundred acres of flower fields.

Get a sightseeing train and a colorful light show.

Make reasonable use of the canals and rivers in the village to create a rafting trip several kilometers long.

After that, the old houses after the founding of the People's Republic of China next to the village ancestral hall were replaced by cooperatives and repaired to create a nostalgic B\u0026B with a 1950s style.

It integrates entertainment, farmhouses and accommodation, and takes advantage of the soon-to-be-opened Lizhou-Yiwu National Highway to build Zhoushui Village into a star village.

"This plan is just awesome"

After listening to the stories of his primary school classmates, Zhou Xiaoke seemed to see the prosperous scene of people coming and going in Zhoushui Village. He was so excited that he didn't know what words to use to express it.

Being a village chief was not his ideal.

His life pursuit is to be a village chief who leads the whole village to get rich and is admired by thousands of people.

"Don't get excited yet. The investment for this first phase will be at least 10 million. How are you going to do it?"

"That's not easy yet"

Looking at the other party's appearance, Zhou Anan, who seemed to be able to guess the other party's thoughts, interrupted the other party directly and continued to pour cold water on him: "Don't say that you have to make up for it yourself. If you say it is a cooperative, then every household in the village Everyone has to buy shares. Otherwise, if you lose money, it’s okay to say that the villagers who volunteered to buy shares will scold you behind your back at most. If you really make money, those who didn’t buy shares will definitely stab you in the back. "

That's what it's like to work in a rural area with old and conservative ideas.

Laugh at the poor and envy the rich, worry not about scarcity but about inequality.

No matter how you think about everyone, as long as you do something poorly, someone will nag you behind your back.

In particular, if the restructuring of this cooperative, which has huge investment, is not done well, it will become a mess if it is dedicated to serving the villagers.

Of course, Zhou Xiaoke has a big advantage, that is, he is very rich, and is the well-deserved richest man in Zhoushui Village. The villagers all think that he will not be greedy for the village collective's small money.

In terms of money, even the previous generation of middle-aged villagers who usually brag about mining outside and earning millions a year have to bow their heads in front of Zhou Xiaoke.

Didn’t you see that the Audi 4S store in Lizhou is bustling with people, and the monthly sales of Audi cars are more than the annual sales of ordinary county-level 4S stores.

"You have to help me figure this out."

When Zhou Xiaoke heard this question raised by his elementary school classmate, he felt a headache and immediately asked the other party the problem.

It would be embarrassing for him, who has not even graduated from junior high school, to consider such a troublesome issue.

"."

Unexpectedly, Village Chief Zhou reacted so quickly, and Zhou Anan couldn't laugh or cry when the ball was kicked back.
