"Oh, Brother Haonan! Please, please, please come inside. There are few customers. What can I have something to eat? There is yellow beef today. I bought it in the morning."

"Two plates of fried beef, a bottle of Wuliangye, and a bottle of Shuangzong. The rest of the ribs, pork head, meat and mutton look like this. There are eight of us, but we will make it for twelve people."

"Okay, okay, okay, brother Haonan, wait a moment, sit down first, sit down first, I will go to the kitchen myself."

Not far away, in the old-fashioned streets, there is a restaurant opened by Chuzhou people. The owner is a "Huaiyang Cuisine" cook, the kind who teaches from a master, but he actually cooks "Three Head Feast" and "Long Fish Feast" There are not many, so it is mainly for the public to speculate quickly and take it easy.

In addition to the livestock from Liangjiang University of Technology who like to come here to improve their food, the field workers from the nearby Jiankang City Civil Air Defense Project also basically come here to have their teeth sacrificed.

Although I don’t know why, the canteen of the unit of Jiankang Civil Air Defense is really naughty, and no real dog will eat it. The working dogs in the field will not touch the ribs in the canteen of the unit, which is also evil.

Zhang Haonan had eaten several times in the past because Wang Hongbao collaborated with the civil air defense project on an experimental project. He had never eaten in a public canteen that tasted so bad.

The cook 100% has an emotional entanglement with Salt, Vinegar and Sugar, which is really hard to describe.

This small shop called "Master Han's Stir-fried Restaurant" usually sells three, four, and five yuan for cooking, so it is nicknamed "Three, Four, Five" in the world.

There are also restaurants nearby with nicknames such as "123", "678", "234", "456", etc., which basically reflect the price range.

People like Zhang Haonan who can order stir-fried yellow beef are considered "big customers".

Although the boss is over forty, he still calls Zhang Haonan "Brother Haonan" after the animals, mainly because he is extremely impressed. It is the first time that he knows what a rice bucket is.

"The driver won't drink anymore. He'll drink tea, warm up with Shuangbiao, and rinse his mouth with Wuliangye."

There are only three bottles of Wuliangye in this restaurant, and Zhang Haonan left two bottles here. The cook is very honest and even marked them...

"Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay..."

Zhang Haonan served a few people. He didn't drink much, and he was usually just having fun. However, he had more contact with workers and peasants, so he was used to drinking a lot of wine.

Shuangniang is very cheap, far less expensive than Coke, let alone Wuliangye, but it is basically a cheap alcohol commonly enjoyed in rural areas.

In Liangjiang Province, whether it is Jiangnan or Jiangbei, the cheapest one in rural areas is this one, which is suitable for drinking.

Even in the rural areas of Andong County, what they drink is not "Two Gorges and One River". In fact, it is this wine produced in Haidai Province.

Drinking a little bit is interesting and familiar with the feeling, but the main thing is to drink Wuliangye.

"Put out all the cigarettes. He doesn't smoke."

Wang Xi put out his cigarette butt when he came in. Several fellow villagers responded quickly, took a long puff, then threw it to the ground and stepped on it.

"It's not necessary, you can do whatever you want."

"That's not what they said."

Wang Xi shook his head and patted the smoke, "How can we ask you to accommodate us?"

With that said, Wang Xi picked up the wine glass and took a sip, "Ha..."

At this time, cold dishes were already placed on the table, including two plates of peanuts, salted peanuts, and cold fungus and cucumbers. There seemed to be day lily and bean sprouts in them.

"It's just like the wine in the village."

"Nonsense, it's just the same, both are double brews."

Zhang Haonan picked up the wine glass and clinked it with him, "It's cheap and you can drink it. Ninety-nine percent of the canteens in the villages in Shacheng also sell this wine, but it's probably not sold anymore."

"The conditions are good."

"right."

Nodding, Zhang Haonan said, "Front-line production, whether it is in a factory or in a field, with a school, or with an office, is two worlds and two environments. To be honest, your ability to do it is beyond my imagination. What I first thought , Even a person with such delicate skin and tender flesh will cry for father and mother in three to five days."

"I cry for father and mother, but it's useless."

With peanuts between his legs and messy hair, Wang Xi lamented, "There are so many things to do, and money is needed for everything, and there is no money everywhere. There are more than one department who want to laugh at me, even my family They all advised me to go to the youth department and work around it."

"Why did you insist on it later? And I think these fellow villagers are quite polite to you."

"Boss Zhang, we are not being polite, we are convinced!"

"Yes, convinced!"

Just as he was about to continue talking, the cook knocked on the door and asked in Chuzhou dialect, "Do you want dry rice or steamed buns?"

"Come a little."

"good."

The reason why the cook came over to ask was because he knew how to steam the food at this time. The vegetables were almost eaten, and the steamed rice and steamed buns were almost steaming hot.

It can be regarded as a little special treatment from "Brother Haonan".

In fact, the cook still doesn't know that the owner of the nearby "Katyusha" is the wife of "Brother Haonan". Although Zhang Haonan has appeared in newspapers and TV several times, not many people know that he is the chairman of "Zijin Technology".

After all, he is not a big star who shows up every day.

"Why?"

Wang Xi was silent for a moment. He was about to pick up the wine glass and continue drinking when he suddenly put it down and said, "Here comes Wuliangye. I'm almost tired of drinking this wine every day."

"You should have told me earlier."

He poured the wine into a small bowl and found the empty bottle. Zhang Haonan called and asked Zhang Zhiqin to prepare some wine. Then he picked up the wine glass and touched it with Wang Xi again.

"I've been to your hometown."

"I know, what's the problem?"

Zhang Haonan is a little surprised. In terms of rural disparity, the rural areas of Shacheng are incomparable to Liangxi, Suzhou. In fact, the rural hardware of Shacheng County is almost the same as that of Andong County.

"The look is different."

"indeed."

"Even families with poorer conditions are obviously motivated because they have a future and hope. This is true even in rural areas where cement roads have not been built. This shows that even if they are not sure what will happen in the future, they are definitely confident. The better the better.”

After picking up the small bowl and taking a sip, Wang Xi was silent again.

"Eat vegetables, eat vegetables."

After eating a few peanuts, the former student council president continued, "But there are many rural areas in Andong County. Although I don't want to admit it, it is really difficult and it is difficult to say that I have confidence. There are too many problems and they are too complicated. And many people don’t want to cut through the details of these complex issues and treat them all in a one-size-fits-all manner, so small problems turn into big problems, and big problems turn into big conflicts.”

"Problems between cadres and masses, public security issues, environmental sanitation issues, housing issues, women and children's issues, farmland issues, taxes and fees, agricultural product trading issues..."

"I built a road for the village. Eighteen villages from five townships called my office and said that I was building it for the village of the woman I kept! Let your mother do it!"

"Then you took care of me?"

"..."

"No, have you repaired it?"

Boss Zhang judged others by himself, and his brain short-circuited. When he came to his senses, Wang Xi took the wine bowl and clinked it with everyone, then clasped the edge of the bowl and took another sip: "Why don't you cultivate? Not only do I After building the road, we will basically be able to fill all the open pits by the end of the year.”

"Where did the money come from?"

"Part of it is from the village, part of it is...hey."

Wang Xi smiled and said, "I cheated."

"Did you cheat?"

"I told the county and the township that Shacheng Food attaches great importance to the local sanitary environment in the cooperative rural areas and has very high standards for its partners. The higher the environmental sanitary level, the higher the level of cooperation. The highest standards can still Help cooperative villages build houses and factories with a starting investment of five million."

"Then the township and county believe it?"

"Half and half."

"Half and half?"

"I believe half of it. That's because 'Shacheng Food' is indeed of a high level, and the people below are not qualified to reach out. And the county has indeed inspected several villages that 'Shacheng Food' cooperates with. It is indeed okay. At least the cement roads will not cheat. People."

Wang Xi, who was a little proud, continued, "As for the other half, someone just used this reason to apply for excess funds. For the Niuligang Village toilet renovation project, the total septic tank budget is 320,000, with the village providing 20%, and the farmers If I contribute 20%, of the 320,000, 120,000 to 30,000 will actually be solved. But the funds will still be allocated according to the 320,000..."

"not easy."

It's really not easy. When something like this happens, I have to endure it. After all, things are important.

"Don't be afraid. The old and new accounts will be settled together in the future. I'll keep the evidence now."

"Patience is the hardest thing."

"It's okay. At least the environment in the village has been greatly improved now, and there is a lot more scope for work in the fields."

"How to solve the problem of farmers' 20%?"

"Awesome, I didn't expect you to ask this."

"Let's resolve the situation in detail."

Wang Xi took a bite of the fungus, and then said, "For the elderly over sixty years old, the families of military martyrs and the disabled, the village and county allocate money for this money. This is the original charter. I'm watching, and I'm sure There will be no deductions. If the family is in difficulty, work will be discounted. For road construction and ditch construction in the village, work points will be calculated. There is one work point per day, and each work point costs 20 yuan. The work points can be directly exchanged for farm tools, feed, fertilizer, etc. at the supply and marketing cooperative. pesticide……"

"Oh, I told you how Ding Yong told me before that there is a trial line of credit business."

It is estimated that Niuligang Village negotiated with "Shacheng Food" to advance a total amount, which would not be much higher, around 10,000 yuan.

The village does not need to give cash to villagers who work. It just records work points. Villagers collect a certain number of work points and then go to the cooperative to exchange for production tools or daily necessities with bills stamped by the village department. After the exchange, the amount is reduced.

Once the quota of 10,000 yuan is used up, the account will be settled.

During this period, it can be said that "Shacheng Food" has shouldered the financial expenditure pressure of Niuligang Village during this period. Tens of thousands of yuan and tens of thousands of yuan are not risky for "Shacheng Food". Even if there are 10,000 villages, that is Just a few hundred million.

However, it is obvious that this is just a small attempt. Ding Yong is willing to engage in this trial operation project, and is obviously also testing the water temperature for the "Bridge Rural Bank" project.

For now, I feel more at ease if I have acquaintances.

"I used to study and read 'I am old and I am old', but I didn't really feel much about it. Only when I actually started doing things did I realize that the wisdom of the ancients was indeed far-reaching. Now the atmosphere in the village is obviously different from the surrounding villages, and the spiritual outlook is completely different. "

"Spiritual appearance depends on money."

"yes."

Wang Xi recognized this, "Money is really a good thing."

"So you can't live without money. Without money, it's hard to move forward. You have finally taken the first step, but it's still not easy. But again, if you need it, just ask. Money is an issue for me. not a problem."

"Okay, I won't be polite. Now the county plans to let me go directly to Dongqiao Township to be the mayor. I suspect there are landmines. Normally I don't want to take the job, but if I become the mayor, many things will be more convenient. "

"Demining is easy. Is it enough to attract investment of one million?"

"Don't think so much. Five hundred thousand is enough. Five hundred thousand is enough in Andong County."

"Then you organize some trustworthy fellow villagers and prepare to go to Shacheng for training. Before the summer grain harvest begins, an agricultural machinery assembly and maintenance factory should be enough, right?"

"That's it."

Zhang Haonan smiled and said, "Don't be so restrictive with money in the future. The two Shacheng old men who are doing research in the school are planning to spend 80 million on me in order to become academicians. They are both from the same school, so they are quite courageous."

"No, go to some mountain top and sing some folk songs. If I drift away, my fellow villagers will follow suit, and bad things will happen."

"not easy."

I sighed with emotion and was about to toast again when the door of the room rang again. The boss, his wife and his waiters, served eight plates at once.

"'Brother Haonan', the stir-fried yellow beef is ready!"

"Okay, okay, thank you very much."

Zhang Haonan stood up and handed a huazi to the boss. The boss quickly took it with a smile and put it on his ear. "I will continue to work in the kitchen. 'Brother Haonan' eats and drinks well."

"Okay, thank you, boss."

After the door was closed, Zhang Haonan greeted the people at the table, "Hurry up, eat while it's hot."

The fellow villagers were still a little reserved. Wang Xi smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, we are all our own people, feel free to eat as you please."

"good!"

With Wang Xi's words, the fellow villagers immediately let go of their hands and feet, stuffed beef into their mouths with satisfaction, and then took a sip of Wuliangye.

Good wine is good wine. It’s not that I’m not used to it or that I don’t want to drink it. It’s that I don’t want to remember the taste of this mellow cellar aroma. Once I remember it, I won’t forget it.

The atmosphere gradually became more lively, and the relaxed fellow villagers kept talking about the changes in their hometown. They were not showing off or flattering Zhang Haonan, they were simply happy, and they simply wanted to share this little bit with everyone. A change that seems insignificant to most.
