Rebirth of the pastoral hot wife

Chapter 479 The Village Chief's Story ([-])
When Yuncheng and I heard this, we were very happy. We have been discussing whether we should plant some poplar or pine trees on the side of the road these days.Now it seems that Jiang Luo and we want to go together.

Yuncheng and I went to Huahua Town to see it, and after hearing the introduction from the other boss, we decided to buy camphor trees.

The reason is very simple, because there is a river in front of the village, so there are the most mosquitoes and flies in summer and autumn, and the boss said that this kind of camphor tree can repel mosquitoes and flies.

Unexpectedly, a decision we made at that time brought the villagers another way to get rich.

In fact, it is also related to Jinxiu Villa, or in other words, it is related to Jiang Luo.

A main road from Jinxiu Mountain Villa to the village was built with a width that two carriages could run across at the same time.

The main roads in the village are built so that a carriage can pass through, and the width of a person can be walked on both sides.The other side of the stone road is left as land.

When the road was about to be repaired, I arranged for two teams to dig holes and plant camphor trees.

At this time, another year has passed since the road construction began.

It may be unimaginable to others. We have been repairing several roads in our village for a whole year.

This is all done by working overtime together after finishing the work in the field.

However, the road was repaired, and it was strong and stable.There is no problem with bullock carts passing, horse carts passing, and people walking.

After another three months, we planted all the trees.

At this time, Yuncheng and I walked slowly on these roads, and suddenly felt a sense of accomplishment.

After dinner every day, the villagers love to come out on the bluestone road for a walk and a stroll, and gradually, a kind of atmosphere has formed.

Later, someone opened the back door and rear window of his house facing Qingshiban Road, and turned it into a shop, selling some daily household groceries used by the villagers.

Unexpectedly, the business was pretty good. There was a grocery store in the village. When the villagers needed household items, they didn't have to go to the town to buy them. They bought them directly in the village.

Seeing that the business of one family was doing well, gradually, the villagers whose houses were on the main road followed the example of the first one, selling seasonings, seeds, and vegetables. The house in my house was converted into a shop, and some furniture was put up for people to look at when they were shopping.

I did not expect such a situation in the village.

Of course, they came to ask me when they were changing the house, and I nodded in agreement. It didn't seem to have any effect, and it was convenient for the villagers.

At that time, I saw that there were more and more people on the roads in the village. Almost everyone went out for a walk after eating, and went to look at the things in those shops.

The children even chased and played on the road, and even rolled on the ground.

The villagers exclaimed, now they are no longer afraid of rainy days.

In the past, when it rained, several roads in the village were covered with puddles and mud pits.

Because the soil in our village is a mixture of red mud and yellow mud, the roads were very slippery and prone to water accumulation every time it rained in the past. When people walked out after the rain, they would always fall a few times, which was unlucky. It may also fall into the cement and get covered in mud.

Now, let alone after the rain, even in the drizzle, you want to run on the bluestone road for a while, because you are no longer afraid of falling and getting muddy!
In two years, several main roads in Jiangjia Village became streets, with not only small shops on both sides, but also restaurants and taverns.

There are also those selling tofu, vermicelli, and fried cakes.

In a word, the village at that time lived a life like a small town abruptly.

When people have money in their hands, they want to improve their lives. Not to mention, the business in these few shops selling food and drink is pretty good.

It wasn't until a guest in the restaurant ate rat feces, and no one went to eat at his house anymore, and had to close the door to concentrate on farming, that I was awakened. I should have noticed this.

When these shops are opened, their food is not clean, and whether they eat or not is bad for people. I haven't considered these things, and I haven't checked them myself.

One day I went to Jinxiu Villa to do some errands, and Jiang Luo happened to be there, so I told her about it.I always feel that if there is any difficulty, after chatting with her, there will be a feeling of enlightenment, and it will be much easier to deal with things.

After listening, she nodded and said, "Yes, you must pay attention to this matter. Whether the food they sell is edible or not, and whether it is much more expensive than other places, these things need to be supervised by someone. You see Those shops in the town will be inspected by people arranged by the government. The village is a bit far away and people don’t care, but I think in our village we can have people from the security team part-time in charge of those who run shops in the village. However, This should be stricter. Unqualified shops cannot be opened, especially those selling food. They must be hygienic and clean. After every day, they must be cleaned. Yes, but they are all our own people."

After I listened to it, I benefited a lot. I asked her some details, and she told me all of them. After hearing this matter, they all felt that it was very novel, and they were afraid that they could not do it well.

I told them: "It is enough to check and supervise with your heart, and you must be careful in everything."

Fortunately, these guys are not bad, and after I took them to start checking for two days, I started to take turns to do it.

The shopkeepers in the village paid more attention when they saw that people came to check.

In this way, the village is growing steadily and slowly.

Since Jinxiu Villa was named the "No. [-] Villa in the World" by the emperor, the story of Jinxiu Villa has spread more and more widely, and has traveled through fire.Many people came here especially for the sake of seeing the splendor of Jinxiu Villa.

At the beginning, Jinxiu Villa was able to receive some people, but later, more and more people came, and Jinxiu Villa couldn't accommodate them, so some people in the village rented their empty houses to those people.

This is the earliest inn in the village.

Some of those people lived for a few days, wandered around Jiangjia Village and Jinxiu Villa, had a look, went to Jinxiu Villa to buy some canned fruits, fruits to eat, and then left.

Unexpectedly, renting a house is still very profitable. Simply, those people refurbished the house, hung up the plaque of the inn, and started the inn business.

When the people got rich, some of them came to me and said that they should also pave the roads in other alleys in the village for everyone!
I thought, it's okay.Then we mobilized everyone to start pulling stones and slates.

This time, within three months, all the small alleys in the village were paved with bluestone roads, and the villagers followed suit and paved their own yards.Slowly, the entire Jiangjia Village became much cleaner and tidier.

Even some families have imitated the families in Huahua Town and planted various flowers outside their walls.

One day, when I returned to the village after finishing my errands outside, and walked all the way, I suddenly found that Jiangjia Village is no longer the ruined look it was seven years ago, and Jiangjia Village is no longer like a village. No, it looks like a town instead.

People's old earthen houses have disappeared, and they have been built into brick houses with blue bricks and red tiles. The gates, courtyard walls, and people's layout are very beautiful and exquisite. Many people still learn from Jiang Luo's house. In the courtyard, a screen wall was made at the gate.All of a sudden, the atmosphere of that courtyard looks much better.

Even the courtyard where Jiang Wuleng's wife lived alone has now been turned into a brick and tile house through her efforts, and the family has also raised an ox cart.The two children are even more promising.

They were all working in the capital, and I heard that their son was taken by Xing'er's side and became the manager of Xing'er's mansion.

That girl works in the shop of Jinxiu Villa in the capital city. According to Jiang Lin, that girl is also very good and hardworking.

However, the elder brother You Xing'er disciplined them, and it is estimated that they will be no different in the future.

According to the hearing, the two children seemed to ask Wu Leng's wife to go to the capital too, but Wu Leng's wife refused, saying that she still likes this kind of life in the countryside.

Wu Leng is still sitting in the prison, so if he thinks about it in this life, there is no hope.

People, they always regret and want to change things when they make things irreversible.

It's a pity that human life cannot be revived after death, so what's the use of regretting it?
Now in the village, many young people are married, new houses are built, and the more they are built, the more beautiful they are, and the number of people coming and going in the village has also increased.

Today's Jiangjia Village has a population of nearly 3000 people.Few of the young people left the village, either to work in Jinxiu Villa, or to open their own shops and do some small business.

The camphor tree bought by Yuncheng and I grew into a big tree, and a strong fragrance wafted through the whole village.And there are really fewer mosquitoes and flies.

I'm also worried about the scent being bad for people because for a while, the smell can be strong.

Later, after thinking about it, I still went to Jinxiu Villa and asked Mr. Qi Feng specifically.

He told me that not only is it not harmful, but it is also beneficial.He said that the branches, leaves, roots and stems of this camphor tree are all good things.

As soon as I heard it, I was curious, what can I do?

It happened that Jiang Luo came back at that time. She knew that when Qi Feng and I were talking about the camphor tree, she was still very interested. camphor tree.

Along the way, Jiang Luo studied and discussed with Qi Feng while watching.

I followed them, listening quietly, feeling emotional, I couldn't understand a lot of what they said, but I could hear what they meant, that was to discuss what this camphor tree could do.

After returning to the villa again, Qi Feng showed me the leaves of the camphor tree with a smile, "Look at the leaves, village chief, in half a month, you can pick some yellowed ones and make them into camphor leaf sachets. Camphor leaf pillow, the wood of the camphor tree is cut into small pieces. These things can kill and repel insects when placed in places with many insects and ants. Moreover, I think you have also discovered that there are no such things as flies and mosquitoes in the village now Yes, it's all thanks to the camphor tree."

"However, the smell of this camphor tree is not very good for pregnant women, and it is easy to cause miscarriage. I still suggest that this kind of tree can be planted outside the uncle's village. If it is inside the village, it is better to cut it down and replace it with other trees!"

Qi Feng's words startled me, "Really? This tree is so powerful?"

"Yes, but it doesn't affect normal people." Qi Feng nodded.

"Okay, then I know!" I was a little scared, thinking, those camphor trees in the village should be cut down, and replaced with other trees, such as poplar, osmanthus, or maple.

After I went back, I told Yuncheng about it, and he was taken aback, and said: "So, some time ago, Qiao Lin's daughter-in-law was two months pregnant, and she fell out of nowhere. It seems to have something to do with this." relation?"

When I heard that, I was startled, "Is there such a thing?"

Yuncheng said: "It's true, but if it's because of this, I don't know!"

I sighed secretly, regardless of whether it was because of this or not, I would always think about it.

"Then let's cut it down and replant it into a maple tree!"

I decided to plant it into a maple tree!
After the autumn harvest, I organized the villagers to cut down all the camphor trees in the village and replant maple trees.

This time, the maple trees are more diverse.

However, there is one thing that makes me worry, what should I do with the camphor trees that have been cut down?
At this moment, Qi Feng brought Lobu, the current housekeeper of Jinxiu Villa, here.

The two of them took me and Yuncheng to start cooking wood together in an empty house in our house.

Yes, Qi Feng asked me to find someone to saw the camphor wood into small pieces, then burn them with fire, and now boil them with water. Qi Feng also said to steam them with air.

Although I was curious, I held back the questions I wanted to ask.

Two days later, Qi Feng told me the purpose of doing this and the specific method of operation. Only then did I understand that he was trying to see which method could help the village to better deal with the camphor wood.

A month later, the village had its first processing workshop. I led a few people to do it myself. The purpose was to process the wood of the camphor tree into something that could be sold.

As for the leaves and branches, Qifeng asked me to arrange people to crush them all and put them in baskets. In the spring, they would be sprinkled in manure and evenly sprinkled on the ground, and then plowed to prevent insects and ants.

Unexpectedly, it was the wooden blocks made by this small workshop, which were sold very well after being promoted and sold by Jinxiu Villa.

Jiang Lin also came back to the village because of this thing, and asked me to plant this kind of tree again. This thing is selling very well. People's homes, cloth piles, and clothing stores all want this kind of insect repellent wood. .

I'm surprised, I just cut it down, and plant it again?
However, looking at the money Jiang Lin sent back, I decided to plant it.

Outside the village, at the foot of Beishan Mountain, there is a piece of wasteland, which is far away from the village, so it is suitable for planting there.

I handed over all the money to Uncle Huo who manages the ancestral hall.

Later, as Jianglin asked more and more, I simply called all the idlers among the young people in the village to work together and make money together.

In this way, in three years, the wood of the old camphor tree was basically finished, and the new camphor wood was finished.

This time, I asked someone to move the saplings to the open space and continue planting.

Slowly, the camphor forest at the foot of Beishan grew bigger and bigger, and the business of our camphor factory is also getting better and better.

After the factory got rich, everyone came to work, and I also asked them to pay them.

At this time, the maple trees in the village had grown up, and the whole village was shrouded in a dense maple forest. Walking from a distance from the small road, watching the maple leaves fluttering in the wind, it felt like Live in a fairy world.

Such a village is not only liked by the people in our village, even those who come to Jinxiu Villa will follow the maple trees at the entrance of the village and walk into the village to have a look.

Gradually, Jiangjia Village became famous for its maple trees.People outside called Jiangjia Village Maple Leaf Village.

Gradually, some people came to see the maple leaves in the village.

People in the village also love maple leaves, and they also plant one or two in their yards.

Then, around the village, everyone went to plant maple trees after harvesting in autumn.

At the beginning, maybe I took the lead, but later on, everyone will automatically maintain the environment in this village, which is something I never thought of when I first started.

Last autumn, during the busy autumn harvest season, Jiang Luo and his family of dozens of people came back to live in Jinxiu Villa.

When Jiang Luo and Dongfang Yi returned to the village, they were stunned to see such a scene.

Jiang Luo said to me with emotion: "Uncle, is this still our Jiangjia Village? I often remember what the village looked like when I first came to the village. Looking at it now, I find that in the past ten years, the village The changes are really big. Not only have there been more houses in the village, but even the roads have been paved with bluestone roads, not to mention the fairyland-like beauty."

"Yeah, I didn't expect that in this life, Jiangjia Village could be tossed like this." I also said with emotion.

"Uncle, you are amazing. I believe that you will have a strong contribution in the history of the Jiang family. You are also a man of the Jiang family." Jiang Luo laughed at me.

I shook my head and smiled wryly, isn't she the Jiang family's man of the hour?
What I didn't expect was that Jiang Xing, the prime minister of the court, Jiangjia Village, came back to visit his relatives.

He is Jiang Luo's brother-in-law, and when he came back, he brought his wife and children with him, and they went directly to Jinxiu Villa.

The next day, he came to my house to visit me with a gift.

I didn't expect that he could come to see me. To be honest, I was very moved. On that day, I actually cried in front of several young children.

Xing'er said that he would like to thank me for building an ordinary village so beautifully on behalf of Jiang's descendants, and he also said that my hard work will not be in vain.

Listening to his sincere words, I didn't think so much.

However, shortly after Xing'er visited his relatives, the governor personally came to the village with an imperial decree.

After receiving the imperial decree, I was immediately stunned. The emperor actually rewarded me with the title of "The Most Handsome Village Chief", and specifically granted Jiangjia Village the name of Jiangjia Town.

I don't quite understand what it means to be the most handsome.The governor explained to me that I am very powerful and good-looking.

On that day, when the governor read out the imperial decree, many villagers came to my yard.Everyone smiled and congratulated me, saying that I am indeed handsome.

I don't understand, I'm a bad old man, what's so cool about it?
However, the matter of transforming a village into a town was ordered by the emperor himself, and this is the first time I have heard of it.

In this way, it seems that I do do better than others.

However, I know that this matter is definitely related to Jiang Luoxing'er Dongfang Yi.

Moreover, the reason why I am here today is that Jiang Luo taught me many things. I have learned a lot from her.

In the spring of this year, a very tall and large gatehouse was built at the entrance of the village, with three large characters written on it, Jiangjia Town.The characters were written by Shi Xing'er himself, and someone else brought them back and asked a stonemason to carve them.

This time, I was even busier. The village chiefs in the surrounding villages came to me to learn from me, ask for guidance, and also wanted to hear about my struggle experience.

The town officials ran to Jiangjia Town frequently again.

I know that in the past they came here because of many things about Ah Yi, but now they come because they like to chat with me.

One of the things that surprised me the most was that someone wrote a book for me, and I became a complete celebrity.

The title of that book is "The Most Handsome Village Chief". It tells my stories and the history of Jiangjia Village's development, and the person who wrote the book is named Weird Hero.

I guessed for a long time, but I couldn't figure out who this weird hero is, because since Jiangjia Village became rich, many people came to chat with me, watch us do things, and toss the village. I really can't guess!
My two sons have been working in the village since ancient times. One took over my shift and managed the camphor factory. The other followed Jiang Luo’s advice and managed the sanitation and environment maintenance work in the village. He organized the work all day long. Some idlers went to water and trim the maple trees, and worked hard to maintain the beauty of the village today.

There are still many things that the younger generation of children are doing now. We old guys are about to retire and rest!

This year, my biggest task is to find a young village chief. I hope that next year, Jiangjia Town can be handed over to him in a stable manner.

In this way, I have completed the task of this life, and I can play with my grandson at home and accompany my wife Lingling!
