The Rebirth of 88 Begins with 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 mine."

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

All the snow on the road has melted.

Only on the shady side of the fields and out of the wind, there is still a lot of snow.

Even so, the power of Xue Houhan was also 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 so 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 broke out.

The 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.

To the north is Song Chunhong's house in Erdaogengzi.

To the 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.

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 something, call me."

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

Then he walked in front of the old three, but Yang Zhishu had already stood up clapping his hands.

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 courtesy 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 it. It's a rare chance to see her. I'll stay here for dinner later, and I'll eat at our small restaurant in the village."

Lao Xu said plausibly: "Let's eat here. It's opened by my brother's house. We are one of our own, so 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 over after him.

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

The big boss has spoken, so it is naturally easy to use.

Party Secretary Yang pulled Xiong Gang away and said, "Then 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 it doesn't matter if they are rubbed against the wall and covered in dust.

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 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 is getting better and better now, 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 are already 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 now, "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. Bian Xiaosheng gets upset when it rains. .”

Party Secretary Yang obviously didn't know this.

But he said with full confidence: "He's making troubles, and if he has the ability, he can also repair it. It doesn't cost a lot of money. It's not like paving a gravel road to a cement road in our village, which costs a lot."

Xiong Gang smiled bitterly, wouldn't that be more difficult?
When Xiong Gang fell 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 it should be done!"

"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, he just found out.

He directly threw out his thoughts and said: "Dad, if you spend money to build roads, whose money should you spend and whose roads should you build?"

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

"But the money in the village has always come from withdrawals, family planning fines, allocations from above, and various subsidies. They are all lumped together in a mess. 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 intentionally reserved? Shouldn't the allocation be less next year?"

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

After all, he was responsible for all the accounts in the village.

I often feel that 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 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, you wrapped up the business together, tearing down the east wall to make up for the west wall. There was really no money left all year round."

"But now, there are other sources of income in the village, which makes 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 told him to finally tell him.
