Chapter 1046 Developing Mountainous Areas
It's early spring in the mountains and it's still chilly.
Xia Jian, Guo Meili, Lin Wei, and two other staff members, a group of five, set out from Pingdu City before dawn and ran for almost three hours before arriving in Donglin Township.
Donglin Township is the easternmost township in Pingdu City and the furthest township in the province. After passing Donglin Township, you will reach the border of neighboring provinces. Firstly, it is remote and secondly, it is located in the mountains and forests, so
Not only is transportation underdeveloped, but the land is also very barren.
Looking around, apart from the mountains, even the villages seemed to emerge from the woods. It was only nine o'clock in the morning when they arrived at the Donglin Township Government.
Township Chief Li is a middle-aged man in his forties. As soon as he saw Xia Jian running away, he came out of his office to greet him. He chuckled and said, "Hello, Mr. Xia! Our place is remote.
And the conditions are poor, which makes you suffer."
"You're welcome! You must know our purpose, so let's get straight to the point," Xia Jian said cheerfully.
Li Xiangchang's dark face suddenly turned into a smile. He smiled and said: "It's very good. Let's move the conference room somewhere to make it more spacious."
As soon as he walked into the conference room of Donglin Township, Xia Jian seemed to have returned to the scene in Pingyang Town. There were a few simple tables and stools, and there was no decent furniture in the entire office.
After everyone sat down, Mayor Li asked a female staff member to come in with a kettle, and then began to pour boiling water for everyone. Looking at such an office environment, Xia Jian let out a sigh of relief and said, "Mr. Li,
Let’s work together and within five years, we will also build an office building for you.”
"That would be great." Upon hearing this, Mayor Li smiled very happily.
The work progressed very smoothly, because Xia Jian asked Guo Meili to make the development plan in great detail, and Township Chief Li basically had no objections after reading it. At about eleven o'clock, the two parties basically settled on it.
“Mr.
's office.
Lin Wei asked Xia Jian quietly: "Isn't it okay if the mayor said this?"
"This is a matter of work procedures." After all, Guo Meili has worked in this position, so she knows the process very well.
While they were talking, Mayor Li walked in with a smile. He said, "Okay, this matter is settled, let's sign the contract!"
After signing the contract, Xia Jian took a long breath and said: "Head Li, we are moving very quickly. You must not hold us back, so you must immediately convene a meeting of all village cadres to assign work tasks. If
If there is someone in any village who wants to hinder my work, I have to find you about it."
"Don't worry about this, I will follow up on the whole process," Mayor Li promised, patting his chest.
After everyone talked about some details, because it was already past twelve o'clock, Township Chief Li wanted to treat him as the host, but Xia Jian politely declined. After leaving the township government, he happened to see a Dikong.
where.
"You guys can take this car back first! I have someone I know here. I'll come back later." Xia Jian suddenly said to Guo Meili.
Guo Meili nodded and asked someone to go over and ask. This car happened to be coming from Pingdu City. He said that he was just going back and was waiting for someone here.
So Guo Meili took the four people into the taxi, and Xia Jian got into the driver's seat. He turned the car around and drove towards Dongwangzhuang.
This route was not unfamiliar to Xia Jian, but the road was really difficult to drive. He drove the car very slowly for fear of something happening, because there were few people in this place, and if something happened, it would be impossible to find someone to help.
big.
After about half an hour of jolting, Xia Jian finally saw the yard at the foot of Li Dongmin's house. Since it was early spring, the flowers and trees had not yet sprouted, so the yard looked lonely and desolate.
Xia Jian drove the car up a steep slope, stepped on the accelerator and drove into the yard of Li Dongmin's house. Li Dongmin, who was cooking in the kitchen, was startled by the sudden sound of the car.
She ran out of the kitchen and saw Xia Jian getting out of the car. The surprise on her face was no less than that of discovering an alien. Xia Jian laughed and said, "What are you busy with?"
Li Dongmin shyly wiped his hands with his apron and said, "I just came back from the fields and am cooking."
"Then cook more, I haven't eaten yet," Xia Jian said and walked to the kitchen.
Li Dongmin hurriedly stretched out his hand and said, "Don't go in. Sit in the yard and bask in the sun. I'll be ready in a moment." Xia Jian had no choice but to retreat, moved a small stool from the upper room and sat in the yard.
While Li Dongmin was busy cooking, he asked with a smile: "Why are you here suddenly? Is there something important?"
"Can't you come and see if you can?" Xia Jian laughed and stood up. He walked back and forth in Li Dongmin's yard and couldn't help but shook his head. In such a large yard, except for the two hanging under the eaves,
Apart from strings of corn, he never saw anything of value.
Li Dongmin breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Thank you for remembering me, an old farmer in the mountains, but you have helped me a lot. The leaders in the town and village have been punished and given a little money. My life now is better than
It was much better before.”
"Who didn't make things difficult for you anymore?" Xia Jian couldn't help but ask.
Li Dongmin laughed and said: "Ghosts are also afraid of evil people. When the people in the village heard that the mayor personally took charge of this matter for me, they became more honest. Once this matter was handled, even the people who usually came to harass me became more honest."
Quite a few, now they run away when they see me.”
"That's good. I came here this time to sign a cooperation agreement with Donglin Township. That means starting from your Dongwangzhuang, we will establish a large-scale agricultural development cooperation project. That means I will come to you often in the future.
,Are you happy?" Xia Jian asked Li Dongmin deliberately.
Li Dongmin: "Haha" laughed twice but did not express his position directly.
The rice is ready, it's noodles. In the mountains, this is the best food for entertaining guests. In fact, for Xia Jian, eating noodles is his favorite, so he started eating them, and ate two bowls in a row.
Li Dongmin looked very happy because she was afraid that Xia Jian wouldn't be able to eat food like theirs.
It was already past two o'clock after dinner. Li Dongmin, probably because of Xia Jian's arrival, secretly changed out of the clothes she wore while working in the west room and came out wearing new clothes.
It is true that a man relies on his clothes and a horse relies on his saddle. Looking at Li Dongmin's chest wrapped in clothes, there were two groups of things ready to come out, Xia Jian's heart began to move.
Li Dongmin has a tall figure and evenly slender legs. If she wears a short skirt, her figure is not much worse than that of some so-called models.
Seeing Xia Jian's stupid expression, Li Dongmin asked softly: "What's wrong? Doesn't it look good?"
"It's not that she doesn't look good, it's that she looks so good," Xia Jian said, reaching out and pulling Li Dongmin into his arms. Li Dongmin lowered his head shyly.
Xia Jian was impulsive and pushed her down on the edge of the kang. Li Dongmin gasped and said, "Don't! Don't do this. I'm so embarrassed in broad daylight. Don't leave tonight. I'll give you my whole body."
"Let's go see the walnut saplings I planted later," Li Dongmin said, turning over violently and actually lifting Xia Jian off her body. This woman who has worked hard is very strong.
Xia Jian controlled his emotions and said, "Okay! Let's go then. Can we drive?"
"Let's walk! The road is a bit difficult to drive," Li Dongmin said, standing up and straightening his clothes.
The sun was very strong, and it felt warm on people's bodies. Li Dongmin walked in front, and Xia Jian followed closely behind her. The two of them were chatting as they walked.
Along the way, I didn't see many people. According to Li Dongmin, the land here is not good for farming. All the capable people in the village have gone out to work. Those who stay at home are either women or children and women. Most of these people do not farm.
After walking for about an hour, they arrived at the land where Li Dongmin planted walnut trees. Li Dongmin glanced at Xia Jian and said, "There are thirty-six trees in total, and they should all be alive."
Xia Jian looked at each tree and found that these trees had begun to sprout green buds. This made him very happy. It seemed that the survival rate was very high. This shows that this kind of walnut tree is more suitable for growing here.
Grows locally.
"Okay! We have finally found the right direction. Dongwangzhuang will start from your house. All the land will be planted with walnut trees. This kind of walnuts should be profitable in three to five years. In these three to five years
"We will give you a certain amount of food compensation for each acre of land. Do you think the villagers are willing to do this?" Xia Jian asked Li Dongmin with a smile.
Li Dongmin didn't even think about it and said: "How can you not want to do such a good thing? There is no problem at all. Then start from my house and plant all eleven acres of land."
Seeing Li Dongmin's happy look, Xia Jian really wanted to kiss her, but he held back. After all, this was in the wild. If any villager saw it, it would have some impact on her reputation.
Next, under the leadership of Li Dongmin, Xia Jian followed her to a few more places. From the looks of it, they were all mountainous. No wonder the villagers here didn't want to stay at home and farm.
They waited until the sun had set before the two of them hurried home. They hurried slowly, and by the time they got home, it was already dark.
Li Dongmin first closed the door, then locked it from the inside with a big iron lock, and then started to cook dinner. Looking at this scene, Xia Jian realized that it was really not easy for women living deep in the mountains.
He stood at the door of the kitchen and couldn't help but ask: "You have such good conditions, why don't you find a good man to marry?"
"Hey! You don't know that our rural areas are different from your cities. Women like me are said to be hard-working and good at cunning, so if something like this happens, their life is basically over. Occasionally, I come to propose marriage.
I'm either blind or deaf. Anyway, I have a lot of problems. Instead of doing this, I might as well live a better life alone," Li Dongmin said with a sigh.
