Chapter 66 Contracting River

"Contracting the river?"

After Rong Jin heard about her daughter-in-law's idea of ​​contracting the river in Yangjiazhuang, she immediately clapped her hands in agreement, "I support my daughter-in-law!"

Rong Jin didn't expect that his wife not only sang well, but also had a business acumen!

Rong Jin happily said to Xiuxiu: "Daughter-in-law, if you contract the river to raise fish and shrimp, I will help you!"

Xiuxiu smiled and said, "You're not going to sea anymore?"

Rong Jin smiled and said: "If you are going to sea, you must also help your wife. Let's go to the brigade headquarters together this afternoon and talk to Yang Dongfang."

Yang Dongfang is the village chief of Yangjiazhuang. The contracting and the matter must be agreed by Yang Dongfang.

Xiuxiu didn't expect Rong Jin to agree so readily. She originally thought she would need to spend some effort to convince Rong Jin, but she didn't expect Rong Jin to agree to her contracting the river so quickly, without even needing a reason.

So at noon, Xiuxiu and Rong Jin arrived at the brigade headquarters in Yangjiazhuang.

Yang Dongfang was holding a meeting. When Xiuxiu and Rong Jin arrived, Yang Dongfang ended the meeting early.

"Hey, Chief Gu is here?" Yang Dongfang quickly took out a cigarette from behind his ear and gave it to Gu Rongjin.

He had been holding this cigarette behind his ear for several days and was reluctant to smoke it.

When he saw Gu Rongjin coming, Yang Dongfang quickly gave the cigarette to Gu Rongjin.

Rong Jin glanced at his wife and blocked it with his hand: "Old Yang, don't smoke this."

Yang Dongfang also took a look at Xiuxiu and immediately understood, isn't it forbidden to smoke? He just married such a beautiful daughter-in-law, how can he bear the smell of cigarettes!

Yang Dongfang put the cigarette back with a smile: "Chief Gu..."

Rong Jin interrupted him: "Farewell, chief. This is the village, not the army. We don't do this. Just call me Rong Jin."

Although Rong Jin was promoted to colonel at a young age, he still doesn't want others to call him "chief". They call him old!

He is still young!

Especially after marrying a daughter-in-law, Rong Jin feels younger!

Yang Dongfang laughed and quickly changed his words: "Yes. Comrade Rong Jin, as the saying goes, you don't go to the Three Treasures Hall for anything, why are you here?"

Yang Dongfang knew that Rong Jin was a naval officer who stayed here temporarily to take care of his aunt. Although he was not from this village, because Rong Jin and his aunt married to Yangjiazhuang, and Rong Jin's mother Cai Wenqing settled in Yangjiazhuang for many years, Rong Jin also

He is half from Yangjiazhuang.

Rong Jin rarely comes to the brigade headquarters. There must be something going on this time.

Rong Jin looked at Xiuxiu with a smile, and then said to Yang Dongfang: "My wife and I want to contract the river in Yangjiazhuang. Lao Yang, you also know that my family is in the provincial capital and we have no land in Yangjiazhuang. After we get married, we will have to

Do you have something to do? I think the river in our village is idle, so why not contract it? My wife and I raise some aquatic products together and pay a portion of the contracting fee to the village every year, what do you think?"

Yang Dongfang smiled and said: "It turns out that it's about contracting the river. It's not a big deal. It can be approved after a meeting at the brigade headquarters. But I want to remind you, Comrade Rong Jin, there is no precedent for raising aquatic products in our village.

Yes, if you can't take care of it, you'll be in debt. Although I know you are an officer, doing business is risky."

Xiuxiu smiled and said, "There's no need for Uncle Yang to tell you this. Rong Jin and I will learn from it."

Yang Dongfang nodded: "Okay, okay. It is a good thing for young people to dare to think and do. How about this, I will have a meeting with the brigade headquarters and give you an answer within a week?"

Xiuxiu wanted to say thank you to Uncle Yang, but she didn't expect Rong Jin to say: "One week is still too slow. Next week I will go back to the army. Old Yang, can the time be speeded up?"

Yang Dongfang gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, Rong Jin, Xiu Xiu, can I reply to you within three days?"

Rong Jin said: "Okay, then I'll wait for your news."

Xiuxiu also said sweetly: "Thank you, Uncle Yang."

This was also the first time she met Yang Dongfang. Seeing that Yang Dongfang should be called "Uncle" at his age, she called Yang Dongfang "Uncle Yang", which made Yang Dongfang extremely happy.

After Xiuxiu and Rong Jin left the brigade headquarters hand in hand, all the comrades in the brigade headquarters cast envious glances at them.

"They say this grumpy colonel can't get a wife, but doesn't that mean his wife is quite beautiful?"

"It's not that I can't find a wife, it's that I have high standards. A talented man and a beautiful woman, a perfect match!"

"I really envy the two of them. From the moment they entered the brigade headquarters to the moment they left the brigade headquarters, they all held hands and walked hand in hand. Wow, this relationship is really enviable!"

"Her mother-in-law is so kind to her. She takes her around the village every day and treats her like a best friend!"

Of course, among the envious voices, there are also some sarcastic voices.

At this moment, Wang Meijia, the daughter-in-law of brigade branch secretary Yang Erliang, happened to be looking for Yang Erliang at the brigade headquarters. When she saw Rong Jin and Xiuxiu coming hand in hand and then walking hand in hand, Wang Meijia felt jealous in her heart.

She and Yang Erliang have been married for more than ten years, and Yang Erliang has never experienced such a sticky relationship!

Wang Meijia snorted and said: "The life has just begun, no one can say for sure, let's wait and see! Which young couple didn't love each other when they first got married? It will change in two years! I think Rong Jin

This new wife has only been with me for two years, maybe even less than two years!"

Everyone in the brigade looked at Wang Meijia with disgust, wondering whether this Wang Meijia had reached menopause or because her marriage life was unsatisfactory and she couldn't see the couple loving each other.

Stay away from unbalanced people like Wang Meijia!

However, because Wang Meijia's husband Yang Erliang was the brigade party secretary, although the comrades in the brigade headquarters were hostile to Wang Meijia, they didn't say anything. They just waited for Wang Meijia to finish speaking, and no one spoke. Everyone dispersed and went about their business.

It’s up to each other.

Wang Meijia thought of Rong Jin and Xiu Xiu talking and laughing, and her heart was still very unbalanced.

With Yang Dongfang's push, the results of the brigade headquarters' approval came out faster than expected - on the second working day, the brigade headquarters' approval results came out, agreeing to transfer the river to the river at a price of 150 yuan/year.

It was awarded to the Rong Jin family and the contract period was thirty years.

When Wang Meijia heard Yang Erliang talking about the news at home, Yang Meijia raised her eyebrows: "One hundred and fifty yuan for a year? Oh my god, the cost is really high! This Liu Xiuxiu is really a prodigal daughter-in-law! Little

Gu will definitely not agree to pay this amount!"

Yang Erliang drank his porridge again and glanced at Wang Meijia lightly: "The contract has been signed, and it was Xiao Gu who took her wife's hand and went to the brigade headquarters to sign it in person! I met Xiuxiu, and she looks like a

She is beautiful. I have never seen anyone prettier than her in the ten miles and eight villages. Even though she is twenty-six, she is more beautiful than an eighteen-year-old girl."
