Grandpa Xie was speechless. Xie Fugui was really good to him as a father. Even if Xie Fugui didn't look down on the things he had done, Xie Fugui had never failed them, but he still felt unhappy because he was unhappy.

So he didn't know where to start, so he always had a knot in his heart. If this knot was not eliminated, he would not want to see Xie Fugui's family.

Grandpa Xie was just smoking a cigarette. Xie Chunquin could tell at a glance that Grandpa Xie didn't have any objection at all, but he just couldn't get over the hurdle in his heart.

To put it bluntly, I am actually thanking Grandpa for his good face.

It's just that this reputation seems to have been good for a long time. Xie Chunquin plans to talk to Grandpa Xie carefully.

"Dad, what is it that you can't let go of? You and your eldest brother are father and son. As the old saying goes, father and son don't have an overnight feud. Why can't you let it go?"

Xie Chunquin really didn't understand what her father was thinking.

Grandpa Xie glanced at Xie Chunquin: "What do you know? Scholars, farmers, industry and merchants, and our ancestors all know that being a businessman is a third-rate job.

He, Xie Fugui, just wants to be a farmer by himself and drags down the family’s talent. He is simply embarrassing our old Xie family.”

Xie Chunquin never knew that his father had such an obvious class distinction in his heart. He looked at Grandpa Xie in disbelief: "Dad, do you know what you are talking about? You think this is a feudal society.

Scholars, farmers, industry and commerce are all the same now.

Nowadays, what is advocated is the three hundred and sixty lines, and the best in each line. Nowadays, there is no distinction between poverty and wealth in the profession, and some are for social construction."

When Xie Chunfen said this, his voice became a little louder: "You said farmers are good, but I admit that being a farmer is indeed good, especially today's modern farmers, who can be considered a type of 360 people.

My eldest brother started out as a modern farmer. He built greenhouses and produced out-of-season vegetables and fruits, so that everyone could eat out-of-season vegetables in winter, which greatly enriched the vegetables on everyone’s table in winter. This is indeed

Made by a farmer, though.”

Xie Chunfen changed his tone: "All farmers can do is cultivate the land. How to cultivate good land? If there is no agricultural product trading company and no current Qinglong Group, who can sell these vegetables? Who can make most of our Jiuge Town

The farmers will get more abundant income, and who can improve the agricultural development of several towns around Jiuge Town. This is all because of the benefits brought by the establishment of Qinglong Group by my eldest brother."

Xie Chunfen looked deeply at Grandpa Xie: "Dad, I don't know why you have such thoughts and why you still look down on businessmen now.

Nowadays, the status of businessmen can be said to be very high, because they have driven the economic development of this society.

Traveling from north to south, without the existence of modern merchants, the economy would not be able to circulate.

The pastries you eat and the clothes you wear today were all brought here by those merchants. Can you say that they are bad? Maybe in ancient times, the status of merchants was not high, but there is one thing.

Without merchants, how can we make everyone's things flow, and it's not the ancient times anymore. Dad, your old ideas really need to be changed."

When Xie Chunfen said this, he sighed deeply: "Dad, you and your mother gave birth to us four brothers and sisters. Now we all have our own families. Ordinarily, you are now the ancestor and will enjoy the blessings.

Why are you so indifferent and insist on making trouble with those boring things?"

Xie Chunfen looked at Grandma Xie rubbing the rope. She also took a small bundle of early straw to help rub it: "Dad, what is the current price of this rope you are rubbing?"

Grandpa Xie didn't know what to say after being told by Xie Chunquin. When Xie Chunquin asked about this matter, he didn't worry and said casually: "It's not bad. In the early years, it was three cents per meter, but now it is ten cents per meter.

"

Xie Chunfen nodded slightly: "Who are you selling this early rice rope to?"

"The straw weaving factory uses the early rice rope to weave straw sandals and sell them as handicrafts to other places." Grandpa Xie didn't know, but Grandma Xie knew something about it. After all, she was the one who delivered the straw rope: "I

Even if my hand has no strength, if it had strength, I would have knitted straw sandals long ago. A pair of straw sandals costs one yuan."

Xie Chunfen nodded slightly: "I know this. The straw weaving factory has recently signed an agreement with some farmhouses. People from big cities will sell their specialties when they come to the countryside for vacation. Straw shoes are also a specialty."

"People in big cities are all fools. Why don't you come to the countryside to buy straw sandals?" Grandpa Xie frowned slightly after hearing this, thinking why people in this city are all fools.

Xie Chunquin glanced at Grandpa Xie: "Dad, you said you are falling behind, but you still don't know. Now the economy has developed. In recent years, rural areas close to the city have also developed very fast, especially when we have companies like Qinglong Group here.

Where leading companies are present, development will be faster.

Because of the rapid development, many people's wallets are full. As their daily life improves, they then wonder whether they can increase their spiritual life. The first step to increase their spiritual life is to get out of the house and broaden their horizons.

In this way, tourism will take off.”

Xie Chunfen still had a smile on her face, but her hands were rubbing the rope quickly: "Now many cities have opened travel companies to introduce people to specific attractions.

For example, our Mingzhou City has many tourist attractions. Even in our Jiuge Town, we have Jinshi Mansion, Zhuangyuan Tower, and Wan'an Bridge as tourist attractions, and tourists already come to visit them on a daily basis.

Because many scenic spots are in the countryside, or far away from the city, villagers or residents in places closer to the scenic spots have begun to practice farmhouse entertainment.

The farmhouse provides food and accommodation, and the food you eat is farm food, such as various vegetables grown by farmers themselves, chickens and ducks raised, or wild vegetables dug, etc.

You sleep in specially arranged rooms in farmers' homes. Of course, these are not free. You have to pay for food and sleep.

In addition to these, when tourists come, they will be curious about whether there are any local specialties, and straw sandals are one of them. Of course, these straw sandals are not what you wore when you were young, but have been processed.

For example, straw slippers, straw sandals, etc. are also dyed to make them more fashionable, so more people buy them. The straw shoes from the straw factory are specially delivered to these farmhouses."

Xie Chunfen paused: "The people who weave straw sandals, a pair of straw sandals costs one yuan. After the straw weaving factory collects them, they dye them and package them a little. They are wholesaled to some farmhouses, and they cost at least two yuan a pair.

Farmhouses are sold to tourists for at least four yuan a pair. Dad, look, if there is no commercial activity, how can these straw sandals make money? After all, straw sandals are actually things made of early straw. In the early years, we early straw were thrown on the roadside.

No one wants it."
