Siheyuan: A Very Happy Era

Chapter 539 Obtaining the Procedures
"Hey, have you heard? Our team is going to distribute dividends again!"

"Yeah! I haven't even figured out what to do with the money I got last year! Now there's another dividend, which really makes me a little worried!"

"Get lost! If you want to show off, go show off somewhere else. You're acting like you're the only one getting the money!"

"Hey! Who makes our family bigger than yours?"

"No, before winter comes this year, I must ask the matchmaker to introduce a good girl to my second son."

"Oh! It's too late for you to worry now. Zhuzi's daughter has already agreed to find a son-in-law!"

"What? Recruiting a son-in-law, does the brigade have any objection to this?"

"Look at what you're saying. We're both willing, so what can I object to? Besides, you're allowed to marry a wife, but you can't let others recruit a son-in-law?"

"That's true!"

"I really didn't expect this! In the past, if we wanted to find a wife in our village, we had to ask for help from everyone, but now we are actually looking for sons-in-law!"

"Who says it's not true? If you ask me, as long as we can closely follow Qiangzi's footsteps, unite around him, and fully support him, then who knows what our lives will be like in the future!"

"Yes! I heard that Daniu's family has already hired a bricklayer to build three large tiled houses for their eldest son before winter. If they are really built, it will be so magnificent!"

"Since you like it so much, why don't you build a few?"

"Hehe! We have to save some money for the boys at home to get married!"

"If you ask me, you know how to live. Spend some money to marry your daughter-in-law, and then give birth to a big fat boy next year. Then, in less than one or two years, you will earn back all the money you spent on marrying your daughter-in-law."

"How dare you say that! I don't know who was so anxious to have a matchmaker introduce a girl to your family at the end of last year. Otherwise, how could your family get so much money now?"

"Ha ha!"

Soon, the conversation between the two villagers ended with one side laughing triumphantly and the other side looking at them with envy.

Similar conversations could be seen everywhere in Jinshan Castle at this time.

Among them, the biggest consensus among the villagers, in addition to following Li Guoqiang's footsteps closely, is that they have to quickly find wives and sons-in-law for their children.

After all, if the money is divided per person, a person can get at least several hundred yuan each year, which is equivalent to a job quota in the city, and you don’t have to do anything, you can get it based on the number of people.

How can one not be excited about such a great thing?
In other words, taking concubines is no longer allowed at this time. Otherwise, let alone whether the men in Jinshan Fort want to take concubines, even the women who usually behave in a very tough manner will have to take the initiative to arrange them for their men.

In addition, nowadays, the villagers of Jinshanbao like to do only two things every day. One is to find out if there are any ways to strengthen the body, and the other is to think about how to have children quickly at night.

If this situation continues, I'm afraid that within a few years, someone will pay a high price to buy the household registration in Jinshanbao.

However, these problems have nothing to do with Li Guoqiang. If there are any headaches, they should be the brigade cadres such as Xu Yuliang and Sun Maocai.

While Xu Yuliang and others went to the county town to withdraw money, he also went to the county town with them, and then directly found Xu Guangfu, the most popular celebrity in the county town at that time.

If he had not asked someone to go into the office and tell Xu Guangfu in advance, he probably would not have waited until noon for Xu Guangfu to be free to meet him.

When Xu Guangfu saw Li Guoqiang suddenly coming over, he thought something had happened. Before Li Guoqiang sat down, he hurriedly asked, "Qiangzi, aren't you busy with the third and fourth bee farms recently? How come you have time to come to the county town to see me now?"

“Well, here’s what happened.”

Upon hearing this, Li Guoqiang did not hesitate to speak politely and directly told them about his plan to build a beekeeping technology research institute in the deep mountains behind Jinshan Fort.

"Beekeeping Technology Research Institute?"

When Xu Guangfu heard Li Guoqiang's thoughts, he couldn't help feeling a little confused.

In his opinion, the beekeeping technology that Li Guoqiang currently possesses is already strong enough, so why should he set up a beekeeping technology research institute?
Moreover, we have to go deep into the mountains?

"dad!"

Li Guoqiang saw Xu Guangfu's reaction and quickly shouted, then gave an example, "Actually, this is easy to understand. Look at us farmers planting crops. Aren't there new seeds being researched every year?

These seeds were developed slowly in grain planting technology research institutes.

Similarly, in addition to some basic breeding techniques, we must research bees that are stronger, more fertile, and more capable of collecting honey, so as to avoid various diseases and pests and continuously improve the benefits of bee breeding.”

"So this is ah!"

After hearing this explanation, Xu Guangfu's face suddenly showed a look of enlightenment.

Although he didn't know much about beekeeping, he was very familiar with farming.

In addition, he is now the director of the Agricultural Bureau, and what he deals with most on a daily basis are various matters related to improving agricultural planting.

Therefore, when Li Guoqiang used the analogy of growing crops, he immediately understood Li Guoqiang's purpose in setting up a beekeeping technology research institute.

Then, he hesitated for a moment, and then asked seriously, "So what are your specific plans?"

"Well, I'm going to ask you to help ask the county leaders what they think. If possible, after we finish the third and fourth bee farms in the next two days, I'll take people into the mountains to find a place."

Upon hearing this, Li Guoqiang's expression straightened, and then he slowly spoke.

"Okay, then let's do as you say. I'll go ask the county leaders for their opinions!"

When Xu Guangfu heard what Li Guoqiang said, he didn't think much about it and just nodded and agreed.

Afterwards, just as he was about to get up and leave, he suddenly thought of something and hurriedly said, "Why don't you come with me? Otherwise, the county leaders will have to ask you something and have to send someone to call you." Li Guoqiang naturally had no objection to this, and immediately followed Xu Guangfu to the county government and found Qian Weiguo.

When Qian Weiguo heard Xu Guangfu's report that Li Guoqiang wanted to set up a beekeeping research institute in the deep mountains of Jinshanbao, he looked at Li Guoqiang in surprise.

Originally, he thought that Li Guoqiang helped to come up with the bee breeding contracting project in order to achieve some results and then have his higher-ups arrange for him to return to the city.

As a result, he did not expect that Li Guoqiang had such a high level of awareness. Not only did he not think about returning to the city, he also did not think about seeking official development based on this extremely outstanding achievement. Instead, he took the initiative to go to the mountains to contribute to the beekeeping business.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but ask, "Comrade Li Guoqiang, is this really what you really think?"

"That's right!"

Upon hearing this, Li Guoqiang nodded without even thinking and replied, "Leader, you should know that the ten pilot production teams that contracted to raise bees will be able to harvest the first batch of honey in a while.

According to preliminary estimates, this batch of honey can bring at least 20 yuan of income to each of them.

Although this amount of money may not seem like much, more than half of them cannot save that much money after working hard all year round and living frugally.

What's more, this is only the profit brought to them by the first batch of honey. There will be the third batch, the fourth batch, and so on in the future.

This shows how much help the bee breeding project contracting has brought to their lives.

In order to help more people and prevent this project from dying halfway, I think it is very necessary to set up a beekeeping technology institute to study and solve the various problems encountered in beekeeping, so that more places and more people can enjoy the rich benefits brought by beekeeping. "

"good, very good!"

When Qian Weiguo heard Li Guoqiang's ambitious speech, he couldn't help but exclaim in admiration with excitement.

In fact, if he had not seen the huge profits that could be brought by the bee breeding contracting project, he would not have handed over the Agricultural Bureau to Xu Guangfu despite the pressure from all sides.

And Xu Guangfu did not disappoint him. In less than half a year, he led Li Guoqiang to achieve extremely outstanding results.

With this achievement, when he is evaluated at the end of this year, he will have no problem taking a step up, at least half a step, if not a whole step up.

Moreover, with the development of the contracted beekeeping project, more and more people will benefit from it. He believes that it will not be long before his name will be known throughout the country and become a typical model.

When he thought of this, he couldn't help but feel a surge of heat in his heart. Then, after a brief pause, he waved his hand and said seriously, "Comrade Li Guoqiang, I have approved this matter on behalf of the county government. Just go ahead and do it. If there is anything you need my support for, just let me know and I will find a way to solve it for you."

"Great!"

Li Guoqiang was delighted to see Qian Weiguo agreed, and hurriedly praised him, and mentioned that he needed to transfer a few people back from Sijiu City to help.

Qian Weiguo didn't care about such a small matter at all. He immediately nodded and agreed, and then asked the staff in the office outside to issue some corresponding certificates to Li Guoqiang.

In fact, to put it bluntly, just because Li Guoqiang can bring him huge career benefits, as long as Li Guoqiang does not kill people or commit any serious mistakes, he will choose to turn a blind eye and support him secretly.

What's more, Li Guoqiang didn't make any excessive demands, so it was even less likely for him to object.

Not long after, when Li Guoqiang and Xu Guangfu came out of the county government together, they had in their hands not only an approval document for the establishment of a beekeeping technology research institute, but also more than a dozen certificates for the transfer of personnel.

From this moment on, Li Guoqiang is not only a villager of Jinshanbao, but also the director of a research institute under the Agriculture Bureau.

Although the rank of the director of this institute is not very high and he only receives the treatment of a deputy section chief, this also means that he has one foot in the officialdom and he will be able to continue to climb up at any time in the future as long as there is a suitable opportunity.

Of course, he himself was not interested in this. The main reason he wanted such an identity was to prevent the affairs of the Beekeeping Technology Research Institute from being affected by the commune and the production brigade, so as to minimize external interference.

"Qiangzi, it's almost noon. Why don't you come home with me, ask your mom to cook a few dishes, and then we can have a few drinks?"

Xu Guangfu glanced at the sun in the sky, then turned back to look at Li Guoqiang who was smiling, and made a suggestion with a laugh.

"No, I have an appointment with Brother Yuliang and the others to go back together. I'll drink with you next time when I have time!"

When Li Guoqiang heard this, he quickly waved his hand and politely declined.

Now that we have obtained the procedures of the Beekeeping Technology Research Institute, we should hurry back to Jinshanbao to implement the corresponding matters to avoid any unexpected situations.

Moreover, the villagers of Jinshanbao took a day off to help place the beehives at the third and fourth apiaries, while waiting for them to take the money back for dividends!
"Okay, then be careful when you go back!"

When Xu Guangfu heard Li Guoqiang say this, he did not force him. He just waved his hand and went back to the unit alone.

Seeing this, Li Guoqiang did not waste any time and quickly went to the bank to meet up with Xu Yuliang and others, then got on the donkey cart driven by Lao Sun and rushed back to Jinshanbao.

Along the way, Xu Guanglu brought two militiamen with him and kept their hands on the gun handles at all times to prevent anyone from robbing them out of greed for money.

Fortunately, there was no one so brave as this, and at around 1:00 p.m., they successfully returned to Jinshan Fort, and then went straight to the third and fourth apiaries with the money.

At this time, except for those villagers who had difficulty in moving and were on patrol missions, most of the other villagers, including the educated youth in the educated youth points, had gathered at the third and fourth apiaries, and were looking forward to Li Guoqiang, Xu Yuliang and others returning from the county town as soon as possible.

When the donkey cart driven by Lao Sun appeared on the newly opened mountain road, everyone couldn't help waving their straw hats and cheering.

If Xu Guanglu and others had not been holding rifles with the black muzzles pointed at them, they would probably have wanted to run up and welcome them with the warmest hugs.

"Back off, everyone, back off!"

Soon, the donkey cart slowly came to the front of the workers' room, and Xu Guanglu had a stern face and kept shouting at the villagers around him, fearing that some fool would run up on impulse.

Fortunately, everyone had experience in this and also understood Xu Guanglu's approach very well, so it didn't take long before the donkey cart was successfully stopped in front of the workers' room, and then Li Guoqiang, Xu Yuliang and others jumped off the donkey cart safely.
