Chapter 2781 wish fulfillment
Xia Jian immediately accepted the gift of two thousand yuan, which really made everyone in this small village look at him with admiration. The villagers who came to help in the small courtyard were talking quietly, and they were pointing fingers at Xia Jian.
Originally, Xia Jian felt sorry for his uncle, and he wanted to compensate his cousin in this way. Unexpectedly, it caused people in the village to talk about him. He didn't know what these people were talking about, but he believed it.
There should be quite a few people he showed off to.
On a warm spring day, it is quite comfortable to sit under the sun in the yard. Because Xia Jian is a nephew, he can only sit on the bench in the yard. No matter how big his career is outside, he has arrived.
In his uncle's family, he is a junior.
Just as Xia Jian was sending Ma Yan and Chen Erniu was talking, an old man suddenly walked in from outside the gate. This man was at least eighty years old. He had silver hair, but his face was extremely rosy.
Healthy. Behind him were four or five middle-aged men.
As soon as the old man entered the hospital, everyone immediately became quiet. Several men who were sitting and chatting quickly stood up. Someone shouted affectionately: "Master Zhao is here? Hurry up and sit in the room."
The old man stood in the middle of the yard, his eyes drifting over everyone, and finally landed on Xia Jian. He walked over in two steps, and then asked with a smile: "Are you Sun Youcheng's nephew?"
"This is me, Grandpa, please sit down."
When Xia Jian heard this, he quickly stood up and moved the stool under his butt.
The old man stroked his snow-like beard and said with a smile: "Sure enough, he is well-deserved. The young man has a handsome face and an upright face. He has done such a big business and he is so polite to an old man like me. It seems that he is really doing something big.
It’s a pity that Sun Youcheng is holding a diamond and can’t use it!”
The old man shook his head and sat on the stool that Xia Jian moved for him. The middle-aged people who were following him also moved several stools and sat behind the old man.
The second monk Xia Jianzhang was a little confused. He glanced at the old man and said with a smile, "Grandpa, are you looking for something to do with me?"
Chen Erniu quickly found a stool and put it under Xia Jian's buttocks. Xia Jian smiled at the old man and sat directly opposite him.
The old man laughed and said: "I grew up in this village and have been working in other places. I will return to my hometown when I get older. My surname is Zhao Mingbing, and people in the village respectfully call me Mr. Zhao. After all, I am eighty-five years old.
"
The old man said and burst out laughing.
A man sitting behind the old man stretched his neck towards Xia Jianyi and said, "Master Zhao served as mayor of a big city in a neighboring province for several terms and has been living in the city since his retirement. He only returned to the village two years ago.
I live here, he said the air here is good, the people are good, in short everything is good.”
"Hey! Don't do what I did before. They are just New Year smoke. Your name is Xia Jian! We are a rising star in Pingdu City. It is not easy for you to build Pingyang Town into what it is today. And your Xiping Village
, and several villages in Dongshan are all great”
As Mr. Zhao spoke, he couldn't help but let out a long breath.
Xia Jian was so smart, he knew what the old man was going to say next as soon as he heard it, so he smiled and said: "I'm very sorry! I'm not here enough, so I don't have a deeper understanding of the situation in Liuwan Village.
Otherwise I would..."
"Hey! I can't blame you for this. There are too many villages in Pingyang Town that need help. It's very good that you can do such a good job. Our Liuwan Village is located in a mountainous area, but it is far away from the mountains and forests. It is a reliable supporter.
There is no village with flat land near Sichuan, so the lives of these dozens of families are too hard. Do you know how your uncle died?"
Father Zhao said, suddenly lowering his voice.
Xia Jian frowned and said in a low voice: "I would like to hear the details, but I want to hear the truth."
"Okay! Then I'll tell you the truth. Your uncle accidentally fell when he led the villagers to build the village road. As a result, due to the inconvenient transportation, he was already dead when he was sent to the town. As soon as he was pulled back,
Just left. I also heard that before leaving, your uncle said, "I'm sorry for my nephew." I don't know what he meant."
When Mr. Zhao said this, he let out a long breath.
Xia Jian thought for a while and said: "Since this is how my uncle walked, then I will help him fulfill his wish. I, Xia Jian, will build the village road from Liuwan Village to the town, but I have to ask professionals to re-plan the route.
That means no matter where to draw, whether it's land or trees, the villagers have no reason to agree. As for compensation, that's a matter for your village. What I mean is that it cannot affect the progress of my road construction."
When the old man heard what Xia Jian said, he couldn't help laughing loudly. He said with a smile: "This Sun Youcheng is really a big fool. If he had invited his nephew here earlier, wouldn't this road have been built long ago?
Nor..."
When the old man said this, he was a little choked up and couldn't continue.
The middle-aged man sitting behind the old man took a deep breath and said: "I am the head of Liuwan Village! There is nothing wrong with what you just said. In addition, there is a mountain spring in the back of our village. There are many springs.
Years ago, people from the geological exploration team tested this water when they passed by. They said that it is very rich in minerals that are beneficial to the human body. I mean, Mr. Xia can send people to take samples and test them. If they meet the standards, they can build a mineral spring behind our village.
water plant"
"Yes! I know what he said. In fact, as soon as something happened to your uncle, we were waiting for you to come. It's a bit unethical to do this, but for the sake of the entire Liuwan Village, I will risk my life."
Mr. Zhao said, staring at Xia Jian closely.
Xia Jian thought for a while and said: "If this is really the case, then we will test the water first and then build the road. Because if we really want to build a mineral water plant, then the road must be wide."
"Xia Jian! Why should we give you such a project? That's because we all know that you are a little different from other businessmen, that is, you consider the interests of the people first, and then your interests. So this
As long as the water reaches the standard, no one will be allowed to use it except you, Xia Jian."
As Master Zhao spoke, he stretched out his white and withered hand. Xia Jian quickly stood up, held Master Zhao's hand and said very seriously: "Thank you everyone for your trust in me. I will return to you today."
The city will immediately hold a meeting to study this matter. If the water meets the standard and is suitable for building the factory, we will build the road first and then build the factory. If the water does not meet the standard, then I will also build the road. Of course, after the road is repaired, I can see which projects are suitable
Liuwan Village People’s Development”
"That's great. On behalf of the people of Liuwan Village, I would like to thank you here in advance."
Village Chief Liu stood up excitedly as he spoke. He insisted on bowing to Xia Jian. Xia Jian refused to say anything and pulled him back to sit down.
While talking, it was time to have lunch. Because the uncle's burial time was at two o'clock, lunch was eaten at eleven o'clock in advance. Xia Jian's lunch was eaten by Mr. Zhao, who thought it was too much.
