Rebirth in 88 starts as a carpenter

Yang Guozhu didn't understand the meaning of this.

But he didn't bother to ask any more questions and just said, "Since you have an idea, just tell your father-in-law directly. Anyway, he listens to you, not to me."

After leaving Panpan Furniture Factory, Wu Yuan was on his way home.

All the snow on the road has melted away.

Only in the shady and leeward areas of the fields and countryside, there was still a lot of snow.

Even so, the power of Snow Queen Han was quickly revealed.

Wu Yuan arrived home on the front foot, and his third brother-in-law Xiong Gang arrived on the back foot riding a big bar.

Wu Yuan invited his third brother-in-law to come into his home and sit there for a while.

Xiong Gang pointed to his muddy shoes and said, "I won't go in. Please quickly change into a pair of dirt-resistant shoes and just walk with me."

The strong wind in the lake hunts.

In front of the mausoleum of the old man and his wife, the three pine trees grew taller and taller.

When burning paper during Xiayuan Festival, keep everything simple.

There were not many tributes to be laid out, only a few piles of paper money were handed out, and they were recited one by one.

Then a fire started.

My brother-in-law strode back.

Of course, we did not turn back, but went all the way west to the north-south road on the west side of the village.

Going north is to Song Chunhong's house in Erdaogenzi.

Going south is the road just west of the village.

We walked and chatted like this all the way until we arrived at the village gate.

I saw Party Secretary Yang, Old Xu Tou and Accountant Li squatting against the wall at the gate of the village headquarters.

If it weren't for Party Secretary Yang's woolen coat, he looked like three old farmers.

When Xiong Gang saw this, he first informed Wu Yuan and said, "I'll say hello to your father-in-law and the others in a moment, and then leave first. I won't leave your house."

Wu Yuan nodded: "Okay, go back to the county slowly. If you need anything, call me."

Xiong Gang waved his hand, "It's okay."

Then when he walked in front of the third elder, Party Secretary Yang had already clapped his hands and stood up.

After all, he is the third brother-in-law of his daughter-in-law, who came to propose marriage back then, and is now the deputy director of the Water Conservancy Bureau.

This etiquette should still be there.

When Party Secretary Yang stopped, Village Chief Xu and Accountant Li had no choice but to move their buttocks and stood up against the wall.

When Xiong Gang saw it, he quickly walked a few steps, took out a cigarette at the same time, grabbed four cigarettes and scattered them all the way: "Old party secretary, old village chief, old accountant, I just came to say hello, don't get up!"

As a result, he was caught by Party Secretary Yang and said: "Don't mention me, it's a rare chance to see you. I'll stay here for dinner later, and I'll eat at our small restaurant in the village."

Lao Xu said plausibly: "Just eat here, my brother's restaurant is open for you, we are my own people, don't worry."

However, Xiong Gang kept pushing back and thanked him profusely: "No, no, brothers, let's break that fee."

After saying that, he kept asking for help from Wu Yuan who came after him.

Wu Yuan interrupted: "Dad, Uncle Xu, Uncle Li, during these two days of Ghost Festival, don't drink tonight. It's prudent to go back early."

The big boss has spoken, so of course it will be easy to do.

Party Secretary Yang pulled Xiong Gang away and said, "Then you can squat with us for a while. You should have this time, right?"

What else could Xiong Gang say? He could only squat down against the wall.

Anyway, their feet are muddy, and if they rub themselves against the wall and are covered in dust, it doesn't matter.

Wu Yuan squatted down next to him, and was about to lean against the wall like the elders, when he saw his father-in-law take off his coat and throw it over and said: "This is your cushion, your clothes are precious!"

"No, Dad," Wu Yuan said with a smile, "The coat your daughter made for you is more expensive than my paper-burning outfit."

"Really?" Yang Zhishu immediately retracted his hand and quickly dusted off the woolen coat.

It made the elders burst into laughter.

Then the topic changed and the conversation started: "Xiong Bureau, have you noticed that life seems to be getting better and better, but people's hearts are becoming more and more difficult to control?"

Although Xiong Gang had tried his best to relax, his professional habits of being a deputy director still remained in his words.

He speaks very slowly and does not express his opinions easily.

"Old party secretary, why is this so? You have been rooted in Liyuan Village for decades, and people's hearts have long been in your pocket."

Party Secretary Yang sighed and said: "Have you seen the road in front of us? Now I want to build this road, and the village has everything I can say. This people's people's hearts are not as good as those who built the dirt road into a gravel road."

Xiong Gang asked: "This gravel road looks good to me, but there is a lot of gravel loss. It shouldn't be difficult to pull some gravel over to cushion it."

Old Xu Tou smiled and said: "Old Yang wants to lay a cement road!"

Xiong Gang was stunned and looked at Wu Yuan.

Obviously, he subconsciously felt that his brother was behind this matter.

As a result, Wu Yuan showed his hands to him.

Xiong Gang understood at this moment, "Old party secretary, building a cement road in one step is indeed a big step. Now there is no money to repair the two main cement roads in the township. They are full of potholes. Whenever it rains, Bian Xiaosheng gets upset.

.”

Party Secretary Yang is obviously not unaware of this.

But he said confidently: "He is worried because he is worried. If he has the ability, he will renovate it. It won't cost a few dollars. Unlike in our village, which is paved from gravel roads to cement roads, it costs a lot."

Xiong Gang smiled bitterly, wouldn't that be more difficult?

When Xiong Gang was silent, Wu Yuan took over the conversation and said, "Dad, it's not that this matter can't be done, but you have to consider in whose name you're going to do it!"

"Then what did you say?" Party Secretary Yang suddenly became interested, and after saying this he complained: "I know, why didn't you tell me earlier?"

Wu Yuan didn't explain it, he just found out about it.

He directly threw out his thoughts and said: "Dad, when we spend money to build roads, whose money is it spent and whose road is it built?"

"Obviously, you are now spending the village's money to build the village's roads."

"But the money in the village has always been mixed together with withdrawals, family planning fines, allocations from above, and various subsidies. If you use this money to build roads, the big guys will naturally have objections."

"Not only do everyone have opinions, but the villagers also feel that the unfinished withdrawal quota of Liyuan Village this year was deliberately reserved? Shouldn't the allocation be less next year?"

When Accountant Li heard this, he nodded repeatedly: "That's true."

After all, he alone handles the village's accounts.

I often feel like they are all mixed together and become a mess.

Old Xu Tou also said thoughtfully: "There are indeed some unclear things."

Party Secretary Yang glared and said, "What if we don't wrap them up together? It's been more than 20 years, hasn't it always been done this way?"

Wu Yuan did not deny it and said directly: "Dad, times have changed."

"In the past, if you all worked together and demolished the east wall to make up for the west wall, you would really have little money left over the whole year."

"But now, there are other sources of income in the village, so you feel rich, so you think about building roads to benefit everyone?"

The three elders, plus Xiong Gang, understood more and more the more they listened, and they could even think of something close to each other.

But he still left this opportunity to Wu Yuan and asked him to finally speak out.
