Siheyuan: Starting from Building a Village

Chapter 274 Spring is here, as promised

The year 1962 was destined to go down in history.

In April, the People's Democratic Republic of Tang Dynasty in the far west established diplomatic relations with Xia State. The two countries reached various aid agreements, and Liu Guozheng's name also reached the ears of the top leaders.

I hope that no one in the new village, not even Liu Guohao, who is directly related to the family, would have thought that a cousin who had been living away from home would come from the distant Tang Dynasty to trace his roots.

If this happened in ancient times, Liu Guozheng would be a royal relative.

However, these are secondary. The main thing is that all the things Liu Guozheng needs were shipped over, and they were openly said to be gifts from his cousin.

There are 6 jeeps of different sizes, all equipped with automatic transmissions.

There are two light trucks with a maximum load capacity of 2 tons. There are also light trucks with larger load capacities, but considering the road conditions in Xia Country, we finally chose a light truck with a load capacity of two tons.

There are also beverage production lines, canned fruit production lines, and sausage production lines.

Finally, there were ten tons of gasoline. This was because having a car without gasoline was not enough. In the 5s, it was very inconvenient to refuel ordinary vehicles. So Liu Guozheng directly asked his clone to transport ten tons, enough for 10- years.

When these things were transported to Hope New Village, Jiao Kangzhan's eyes turned red with envy!

The three production lines, in particular, weighed on the nerves of Jiao Kangzhan and all the leaders of the Jingxi Mining District. However, they were just thinking about it and did not dare to have any evil ideas.

Liu Guozheng himself has no deterrent power.

Liu Guozheng's cousin has one, but they have heard that Liu Guodong is the commander-in-chief of the three armies of the Tang Dynasty and a powerful figure among powerful figures.

Besides, the two countries have just established diplomatic relations and are in the honeymoon stage. Who would dare to cause trouble for Liu Guozheng at this time?

To put it bluntly, even if there are some problems in the relationship between the two countries in the future, not just anyone would dare to touch Liu Guozheng.

Not only in the mining area in western Beijing, but also in the old cities, no one dared to target Liu Guozheng.

The villagers were even happier, especially the young people, as cars were rarely seen in normal times.

Now their village has six cars at once. Liu Guozheng said at the time that anyone between the ages of 18 and 60, regardless of gender, can learn driving skills.

For this purpose, the village specially set aside a piece of land as a practice ground.

The construction of the factory building has officially begun. The Jingxi Mining District fully supports it and provides both people and materials. It is hoped that the construction of the factory building in Xincun will become a key project of the Jingxi Mining District this year.

In the eyes of the leaders of the Jingxi Mining District, this is not a factory, but tax revenue and political achievement.

"Brother, when the factory is built, can you reserve a few places for me?"

Whenever Jiao Kangzhan has nothing to do, he will come to Hope New Village, under the pretext of checking on the progress of the project.

"Brother Jiao, after the factory in our village is built, we will recruit people from the surrounding villages, but only those with rural household registration, not those with urban household registration."

"Guo Zheng, why is this?"

"Brother Jiao, our Xia country farmers have a very hard life. They work hard every year and still can't get enough to eat. I am also a rural person. Now that I have the conditions, of course I have to help my own people first."

"Guo Zheng, your idea is good, but the villagers don't have free time."

"I've already thought about this. The factory will be open to avoid the busy farming season."

"Can you still do this?"

"Of course, it's our village's collective factory, so of course we have the final say."

"It's good to have a good cousin."

"Hehe, I didn't expect that a cheap cousin would come to claim his relationship with me, and he was quite generous."

"Generous, indeed very generous. To be honest, I'm jealous of those cars of yours."

"How about I give you one?"

"Thank you for your kindness, brother. Even if you gave it to me, I wouldn't dare to accept it."

"Then there's no way."

"Okay, brother, I won't make it difficult for you. I want the quota for my relatives, who are all from the countryside."

"Brother Jiao, no problem. I'll let you know when the factory starts operating."

"Hahaha, okay, thank you in advance. I'll treat you to a drink later."

"I've been waiting for this."

"Don't worry, I'll treat you once even if I have to sell everything I have."

"Brother Jiao, now that you put it like that, I doubt whether you really want to buy me a drink."

"It's true, absolutely true. I've sold everything I have, how can it still be true?"

"Hahaha."

Jiao Kangzhan left, humming a little tune as he went. Having achieved his goal, he was in a very happy mood.

"Guo Zheng."

Hearing that Jiao Kangzhan had left, Lou Zhenhua walked over from the office next door.

"Dad, what's wrong?"

Liu Guozheng was a little curious. What happened today? Lou Zhenhua looked like he was worried.

"Guozheng, are you sure it's okay to open a factory?"

Lou Zhenhua asked worriedly.

"What could be the problem?"

Liu Guozheng didn't understand why Lou Zhenhua asked this.

"You know that the policy does not allow individuals to do business."

"Oh, what am I supposed to do? Don't worry, this factory belongs to our village collective, so there is no such thing as violating the policy."

"Can this still happen?"

“The village collective is also a collective.”

"Then I'm relieved. By the way, has anyone chosen the factory manager?"

"What? Dad, do you want to go out?"

"No, I'm very satisfied with my current life. I teach in the morning and take care of my grandson in the afternoon. I don't have the mood or the energy to care about other things."

"OK then."

"Guo Zheng, if you really don't have a candidate, you can consider Lao Song."

"Old Song?"

"Yes, Lao Song has managed many factories before. He is experienced and a good person."

"Dad, isn't Lao Song the director of the brick factory now?"

"Guozheng, you don't understand this, right? Old Song from the broken brick factory is totally wasted. Don't worry, I'll talk to him when the time comes, and there will definitely be no problem."

"Okay, Dad, as long as you can convince him, I'll keep the position of factory director for him."

"Don't worry, leave it to me. I believe Old Song will definitely be willing to come. Okay, I won't talk to you anymore. I'm going to see my grandson."

This person, like Jiao Kangzhan, left after achieving his goal.

"This old man."

Liu Guozheng smiled and shook his head.

After leaving the office, Liu Guozheng walked slowly on the street in the center of the village. It was a rare day for him to have some free time today.

Liu Guozheng was very busy during this period and felt very tired, not physically, but mentally, because he had to make the final decision on all matters.

There is nothing we can do about it. It is the 1960s now and we have to think twice before doing anything. If we fail to think of anything, it may cause trouble.

Liu Guozheng took a great risk by asking his so-called cousin to give him gifts, and he was even prepared to go to the Tang Dynasty. Fortunately, the top leaders of the Xia Kingdom were flexible, otherwise Liu Guozheng would have to run away with everyone in Hope New Village.
