Chapter 161
Li Dong came to Du Gensheng's house again, and as soon as he entered the yard, he saw a few more sheep in the cowshed next to him. For some reason, Li Dong always felt that these sheep looked familiar, as if he had seen them somewhere.

"Grandpa, where are you? We have a distinguished guest." Du Gensheng yelled and entered the house, and finally found grandpa on the kang in the back room.

"An honorable guest? What kind of honorable guest can we come to our house?" The old man said lightly, and took a sip of the wine. This is homemade rice wine. The food can also be eaten with gusto.

Li Dong, who was still in the outer room, stopped when he heard the voice of Grandpa Du Gensheng. When he continued to walk into the inner room and saw the old man sitting on the kang, he suddenly remembered why the sheep outside looked familiar. Is it the old sheep-herding man smoking a pot and pot that he saw halfway up the mountain when he entered the village?

"Master, let's meet again." Li Dong said with a smile. No wonder the other party insisted on letting him go when we talked about contracting the land before. It turned out that the other party was the village chief, who could really make decisions for the whole village.

"Why haven't you left yet?" The old man frowned when he saw Li Dong, showing that he was not welcome to Li Dong.

"Grandpa, do you know each other?" Du Gensheng looked strangely at his grandfather and the newly-acquainted brother Li. Didn't grandpa just come back from herding sheep? How could he know brother Li?
"When I entered the village, I met the old man. It was the old man who persuaded me not to contract the land in your village." Li Dong didn't hide it either. After speaking to Du Gensheng, he looked at the old man and said, "Master, I was in the After walking around the village, you are right, the arable land in Shicheng Village is really not suitable for contracting out, so I decided not to contract the arable land in your village, and I plan to contract a cave to build a fish farming base."

"Cave? Fish farming base?" The old man was taken aback. He was still talking about land contracting when we met just now. Why did he talk about fish farming again after such a short time?This span is too big.

"Grandpa, that's the cave you used to take me to." Du Gensheng said excitedly, "Brother Li ate the fish I caught from there and thought it tasted very good, so he went to the cave to have a look. He thought the fish there The environment is very good for fish farming, and I hope to sign an agreement with our village to contract fish farming.”

As long as he can remember, Shicheng Village has been a place where no bird shits. After so many years, it has not changed at all. He knows that the remote location hinders the development of the village. Now someone is finally willing to invest in the village. Of course he very happy.

After listening to the old man, he sized Li Dong up and said, "Young man, do you really want to engage in fish farming, or do you have another purpose?"

Another purpose?This time it was Li Dong's turn to be stunned, did the old man guess the purpose of his trip?

Impossible, he didn't tell anyone about this, how could the other party know?

Bluffing, yes, it must be bluffing people!
"Master, you should know more about the situation in Shicheng Village than I do. Even if I want to take advantage of your Shicheng Village, I have to take advantage of it." Li Dong said with a wry smile, thinking about the old man's Vigilance is too high, right?No wonder it hasn't changed for so many years.

"That's right!" Lin Hai chimed in, "As far as your village is concerned, what is there to take advantage of? Is there gold in the fields, or money on the trees? I don't even think it's a lot of work."

"Don't mind the two big brothers." Du Gensheng said quickly, "My grandfather just asked this casually, and there is absolutely no malice in it." After finishing speaking, he turned his head and kept winking at his grandfather, for fear of offending the two gods of wealth.

"You are right." The old man said flatly, "Our Shicheng Village is really remote, and the roads are not easy to walk. In this case, why do you come to our village to do contracting? You are businessmen, and businessmen are not profitable. Worse, you said you came to contract the land before, but you didn't contract the land, and you came to contract the cave again, saying that you have no other purpose, who would believe it?"

Lin Hai was choked all of a sudden. In fact, he didn't understand Dong Ge's intentions, but Dong Ge didn't tell him, so he could only be confused. Du Gensheng also looked at Li Dong at this time. There are still some reasons. There are so many villages in Dongshan, with a lot of land and convenient transportation. Why do you have to come to this place where you don't want to shit to invest?

Li Dong smiled, pointed to Du Gensheng who was beside him and said, "Actually, brother Gensheng has already said very clearly. At the beginning, I liked the environment here. There are mountains and water, far away from pollution, and it is very suitable for planting." Medicinal materials, since I heard what you said and saw that your village does not have much land, I was planning to leave, but at this moment, I ate the fish made by Brother Gensheng. The taste of this fish is really delicious. That’s great, I’ve never eaten outside. People in the city are not short of money now, what they lack is delicious food, so I think that cave is very valuable. If the river in the cave is used to raise fish, artificial Put in fry and grow in a purely natural environment, it will be no different from wild fish, and it will definitely sell for a good price, maybe this is the so-called: It’s a blessing in disguise!”

"Well said!" Du Gensheng raised his hands and applauded, then looked at his grandfather sitting on the kang and said, "Grandpa, you agree to contract that cave to Brother Li, anyway, that cave is useless to our village , why don’t you earn some contract money and send some things to the villagers during the Chinese New Year, you, the old village head, are not in vain, and when I take over, the villagers will think of you and vote for me.”

The old man held the chopsticks, picked up the peanuts on the plate, and put them into his mouth one by one. Regardless of his age, his teeth were very good, and there was a rattling sound when he bit.

Seeing his grandfather's unhurried appearance, Du Gen sat anxiously on the edge of the kang, looked at his grandfather and said, "Grandpa, you have been the village head of our village for so many years, and our village has not changed at all. The geographical location of our village is a factor, but I think the most critical problem is because your thinking is too conservative. Go out and see what the world outside the mountain has become. The buildings built are bigger than our house. The mountains are high, but here we are, everything is the same as when I was a child, you go to the village, except for those old people who can’t walk, and those young people who can’t get out, who wants to stay in the village Say? It’s hard to say, grandpa, you are old and your thinking is too outdated. Anyway, you want me to take over, why don’t you let me be the home of our village now, even if it’s just a bag of rice for the Chinese New Year? stronger than now."

With a sullen face, the old man put the chopsticks on the table with a 'snap'. Du Gensheng was startled, and quickly stood up from the edge of the kang, looking cautious.

"Have you grown up? Have your wings hardened?" The old man scolded Du Gensheng with his eyes wide open.

"Ahem, no, no." Du Gensheng said in a low voice while hiding behind Li Dong, "I just feel that the folks have lived in this ravine for so many years. Our old Du's family has been the village head for so many years. , even if you don’t bring anything good to the villagers, don’t prevent others from bringing the whole village to become rich, right? If all the villagers move out of here because of livelihood problems, then our old Du’s family will be the sinners of Shicheng Village. Besides , Brother Li said, after the fishery is built, let me be the person in charge of the fishery. In the future, if the fishery needs people to work, we will find them all from our village..."

The old man held his breath, and his eyes gradually shifted from his grandson to Li Dong, "Are you so kind?"

"I'm not that kind." Li Dong said, "So we can sign a short contract and let me work here for a few years to see how it works. If I lose money, I will leave. After all, my money It's not from the wind."

Li Dong knows that the old man is highly vigilant. If all the good words are good, the other party will be more vigilant, and some bad words will make people think that he is a person who only cares about money, which will reduce the old man's attitude towards him. Vigilance.

Sure enough, the old man's expression eased a little, he picked up the pipe and pot from the kang, lit it up and started smoking again.

"Grandpa, don't smoke, you just said something, you don't let me go out to work, let me come back to pick up your shift, you have to give me a chance to perform, I don't want to be the village head of an uninhabited village " Du Gensheng said, since he can't leave the village, he can only toss around in the village, or else there's nowhere to use his strength.

The old man looked out at the sky while smoking a cigarette. His grandson's words touched the sore spot in his heart. After being the village chief for so many years, the village has not changed at all, and the number of people has decreased. It would be embarrassing to say it.

After a few minutes, the old man turned his head, looked at Li Dong and said, "How much contract money do you plan to pay?"

Du Gensheng's face brightened, and grandpa finally agreed.

Li Dong also smiled, looked at the old man and said, "Master, what is the fishery like? Whether it can make money is still unknown. If you ask me to take more, I will definitely not do it. If I take less, you will definitely not do it either." , I don’t think it’s better than this, every spring and Dragon Boat Festival, each household has a small bag of rice and a small bag of noodles, [-] catties, if the fishing ground really makes money in the future, do you think it’s okay to replace the small bag with a big bag?”

The old man calculated in his heart that a small bag of rice and a small bag of rice noodles would add up to 100 yuan. There are 46 households in the village, two cents a year, which is more than 9000 yuan, and a dilapidated cave can be rented out for more than 9000 yuan a year. It is much more cost-effective than contracting out those farmlands.

"Okay, then it's settled!" The old man knocked the cigarette bag and pot on the edge of the kang, and then got off the kang, "Come with me to the village committee."

Li Dong was overjoyed, it was done!

This Qingshi River belongs to him!
