Baicun, Fengyuan County;

This small village, known as 'Unknown', is located between mountains. The road to the village is narrow and deep, and you can see orange trees on both sides of the road.

When you finish walking this narrow and long road, you will see two big trees standing at the entrance of the village, and in the middle there is a plaque with the words "Bai Village" written on it.

From here, the road conditions gradually improve and you can roughly see how big Baicun is.

There are rice fields on both sides, and almost all the people working in the fields are uncles and aunts over 40 years old, except for one familiar face.

"Secretary Xu, if you are tired, take a rest. Don't get too exhausted."

The unfamiliar face is Xu Yan, who was assigned here as the first secretary of the village three months ago.

The uncle who was wiping his sweat with a towel said.

"Yes, Secretary Xu, the sun is shining today, and we asked you to come and help us with farm work. You don't normally get exposed to these things, so be careful of getting a heat stroke."

Xu Yan picked up the water bottle next to her, took a big sip and said, "It's okay, Uncle Wang, Aunt Qing, we are here to help everyone. If I can't do this little thing, then I can't do anything else."

"Oh, look at it, this is the party member! He is a member of the country! He is dedicated to helping us."

Xu Yan smiled and was about to say that it was nothing when she saw a colleague waving and calling her in the distance.

"Xu Yan!! Xu Yan!"

"What's the matter with Fuxiang?"

When Xu Yan heard the other party calling her, she quickly replied and then pricked up her ears. When she heard that the shop was successfully opened, Xu Yan was so excited that she didn't even hold the hoe tightly.

Xu Yan shouted in a hoarse voice: "Then you help me with it, wait until I finish this place!"

The woman whom Xu Yan called Auntie Qing looked at Xu Yan and said, "Young people must have good hearing. I can't hear what Fu Xiang said."

Uncle Wang also nodded affirmatively and said that he couldn't hear clearly.

"Uncle Wang, Aunt Qing, weren't we talking about developing an e-commerce business before? We want to sell the fruits we grow online. Fu Xiang just came over to say that the store has been built, and we can sell our oranges online then."

"Oh! This is a great thing!"

More than half an hour later, Xu Yan walked back to her office wearing a straw hat, took off the hat and put on her glasses.

When I first came here three months ago, I was really unfamiliar with the place, but fortunately the old secretary was still here. I usually learned from him. The old secretary was also half a villager, so Xu Yan worked with him to learn about all the situations of the poor households in the village.

Every time she learned something, her notebook was filled with words.

She visits three to four families every day, or five to six if things go fast. When Xu Yan returns to the office, she has to make a summary, such as what are the causes of poverty in the village and what kind of policies should be given?

Xu Yan also knew that it was useless to rely solely on government subsidies. This was only a temporary solution and not a fundamental solution. The most important thing was to increase income. Only by raising the income of the villagers could the entire village be lifted out of poverty.

After that, she held a meeting. Most of the fruits in the village were self-produced and sold, and some fruits usually exceeded the limit, such as oranges or star fruits.

So Xu Yan thought of introducing orange planting technology and Yang Tao planting technology to the villagers, and then introduce e-commerce to sell them online.

However, there is a problem now, that is, the road is not open yet. Xu Yan still plans to roll up her sleeves and work hard. She plans to hold a meeting tomorrow to tell the villagers whether they can work together to build the road.

At night, Xu Yan lay in her dormitory. The environment here was relatively simple. Even the hot water had to be boiled in advance. The bathroom was a small area of ​​less than a few square meters, a bit like a university dormitory, but more simple than a university dormitory.

Xu Yan looked at the bedside lamp that flickered on and off, and slapped it expressionlessly.

Okay, okay.

Xu Yan stretched and then lay down on the bed, finally able to rest. Xu Yan looked at the time, it was already half past eleven, and she still hadn't put aside her identity as a novelist recently.

However, she always finds time to write articles when she has free time from her busy schedule. For example, Xu Yan usually carries a small notebook and a sticky note with her, which she uses to write diaries and about the villagers' situations.

As for sticky notes, you can write down any writing inspiration immediately and then write it down in a notebook when you have free time.

Before she knew it, it was twelve o'clock. Xu Yan put her cell phone on the bedside table and turned on the light, but it was only half-lit. Xu Yan slapped the bedside lamp again.

Phew, the world finally feels quiet.

Xu Yan took a deep breath, then closed her eyes and fell into a deep sleep.

It was less than seven o'clock in the morning when she was awakened by the crowing of a rooster. Xu Yan stretched herself and stood up mechanically, taking the toothbrush cup and toothpaste with her to brush her teeth.

At seven o'clock, Xu Yan finished eating the clear soup noodles she cooked herself, and also added an egg and some vegetables.

Delicious.

Xu Yan walked out wearing smart clothes and greeted Fu Xiang and the others.

Fu Xiang and his friends were also college student cadres.

In the beginning, they were actually quite unhappy because this place was indeed too backward, the internet was a bit bad, the hot water was a bit bad, and in their eyes, everything was lacking.

If you insist on saying there is an advantage, it can only be the fresh air? Fu Xiang said this is a good place to live in seclusion and retire.

"Oh, by the way, there's a meeting today. Don't forget it when you're busy. It starts at 9:30! I'll go get someone now."

Xu Yan had one foot out the door when she suddenly thought of something to say, and turned around to speak.

"Okay, got it. I'll clean up the conference room now."

Fu Xiang replied and left immediately.

Xu Yan is going to invite the village elders and village officials.

"Uncle Wang! Are you busy?"

When Xu Yan stepped into Uncle Wang's house, she saw Uncle Wang sitting on a small stool, shelling beans by hand. Uncle Wang immediately looked up when he heard Xu Yan's voice.

"Hey Secretary Xu, you're here so early? Have you had breakfast? I have breakfast at home!"

"I've eaten Uncle Wang, where's my sister-in-law?"

"Hey, your sister-in-law went to the mountains to pick bamboo shoots with her best friend."

"Oh, Uncle Wang, I came here to tell you that we will have a meeting at 9:30 to discuss the future development of the village."

"Okay, nine-thirty, right? I'll come over after your uncle finishes shelling these beans."

After hearing the answer, Xu Yan walked out: "Then I'll leave, Uncle Wang, I have to call other people."

"Okay, be careful on the road!"

"I know, uncle!"

Xu Yan waved and left.

She went from house to house, exchanging a few words with each family before informing them that a meeting was about to begin.

This will take at least an hour.

Sometimes when they were talking and encountered difficulties, Xu Yan would sit down and talk. Of course, these difficulties were also simple, such as the phone suddenly not lighting up, or the phone suddenly stopped making any sound.

The older ones asked Xu Yan about the future development of the village.
