The leisurely life of the reborn daddy

Chapter 636 'Big Banquet' (50001 million) Please give me your monthly ticket
Cheng Rengui and Li Xiaojuan, the old couple, became increasingly confused about this son-in-law.

They always feel that the development of all this is beyond their understanding.

They have been paying attention to the news about their son-in-law. Because of this, they also knew that an official like Wang Qinghui visited his son-in-law some time ago.

They couldn't even imagine such a thing.

Not to mention the old couple, even the younger ones Cheng Yunping and Liu Yingying couldn't figure out how their brother-in-law could be so powerful.

"Brother-in-law, are you a veteran in your factory right now?" Cheng Yunping was curious.

For such a big shot to visit, his brother-in-law's factory must have a certain level of strength.

With his limited knowledge, it was hard to say how much it would be, but he felt it should be in the hundreds of millions.

Cao Shujie smiled and took the wine bottle to pour wine for his father-in-law: "What the hell, I just used Lao Wang to come to our factory last month and asked grandpa to ask grandma to borrow some money from the bank. If I really have the ability, I will Do you still need to borrow money from the bank?"

"what……"

This was different from what Cheng Yunping thought. This result made him confused.

Liu Yingying couldn't understand it at all, but she had heard a saying that those who can borrow money from banks are capable people.

For example, the couple wanted to raise more cattle and went to the bank to ask about a loan. However, the answers they received were not satisfactory based on their qualifications.

In the end, they only took out an interest-free loan of 20 yuan and paid it back in three years.

With a little money from my father-in-law and mother-in-law, I rented the current cattle farm.

The number of cattle raised has also increased from 10 to 30 now.

My father-in-law has been raising this for two and a half years and has gained experience.

The couple also worked with their parents-in-law for half a year and accumulated some experience. They did not expand blindly.

But in the past six months, they have encountered a lot of troubles when working on their own.

"Brother-in-law, the price of calves is really outrageous now." Cheng Yunping changed the subject and talked about something closely related to him, gritting his teeth with hatred.

He felt that all the profits from raising cattle were taken away by cattle dealers who sold calves.

Farmers like them will not make money in a few years.

"How much does the calf you bought cost?" Cao Shujie asked his brother-in-law when he saw him like this.

Cheng Yunping held out four fingers: "4600 a head, and others won't sell it for a penny less. It depends on how much I raise. Many of them in our village are bought for 5000 yuan, which is outrageous."

As soon as Cheng Yunping finished speaking, Cheng Xiaolin turned to her husband and asked, "Shujie, isn't that right? I remember that the calves we bought there are not so expensive."

Cao Shujie nodded: "The last batch I bought in October last year was 10, and the one I bought in May this year was 3800. However, if I buy again after a while, the price will have to be raised a little, and it should be around 5."

When Cheng Yunping heard the price mentioned by his brother-in-law, he opened his mouth wide and was stunned.

Liu Yingying was nagging next to her: "Yunping, you see, when we bought the calf, I told you to ask your brother-in-law, but you have to ask. The difference of 600 yuan per head, those black-hearted cattle dealers, ancestral graves There’s black smoke.”

Cheng Xiaolin looked at her husband subconsciously, thinking it was better not to ask just now.

But Cao Shujie said: "Yingying, you are wrong. If you buy less, the price must be high. If I buy less, the price is not that low."

"Ah, brother-in-law, we have a total of 30 calves now. Last time we bought 20 calves at once. Isn't that enough?"

Liu Yingying found it incredible.

The number of cattle they now raise is one of the largest in the surrounding area.

But Cao Shujie stretched out two fingers: "I bought more than 2300 heads at one time."

Liu Yingying: "..."

She was speechless.

Even if she is poor at math, she still knows how big the difference is between 20 lots and more than 2300 lots, and then she understands what it means to buy more.

There is a difference of more than 100 times. It is no wonder that the price difference between the calf they bought and the calf bought by their brother-in-law is 600 yuan.

When I think about it, I feel balanced.

There was no way, those cattle dealers who sold calves to her brother-in-law really made small profits but quick turnover, but they couldn't tolerate large quantities.

If you sell to small businesses like them, you can naturally make more money.

Cao Shujie and Cheng Xiaolin stayed one night in Chengjiapo and left the next morning.

Cheng Xiaolin would like to stay for two more days, but the day after tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival, and her husband still has to pay visits and condolences when he returns.

Welfare benefits in Caojiazhuang have not been extended yet, and those with elderly people at home still need village committee leaders to look after them.

Her husband is usually busy outside, but this job has never fallen behind.

Before leaving, Li Xiaojuan still held the hand of her daughter Cheng Xiaolin and told her to come back often with Mengmeng in her arms.

She also said that her daughter can drive herself and there is a car at home.

"Mengmeng, say goodbye to grandma quickly." Cheng Xiaolin said.

She felt that if she continued talking, she would have to cry again.

But obviously, when they got into the car and left, they clearly saw Li Xiaojuan crying outside the car. Her mood was instantly filled with another feeling of farewell, and she also started crying.

……

Cao Shujie drove back to Caojiazhuang, and his wife's mood improved.

The family of three got out of the car, and Cao Shujie carried down the vegetables he brought from his mother-in-law's house.

Her mother, Wang Yuelan, heard the noise and came out of the house.

Seeing them coming back, Wang Yuelan hurried over to help move things and asked what they were doing with so many things.

"Mom, my mother had to let her bring her. They are all grown at home and eaten cleanly." Cheng Xiaolin said.

"My mother-in-law is very thoughtful." Wang Yuelan did not hesitate to praise her mother-in-law.

Although Cheng Xiaolin didn't say anything, she was very happy in her heart.

"Mom, it's so hot. Stop moving things. Hurry up and bring Mengmeng in. Shujie and I will just take it," Cheng Xiaolin said.

"It's okay, Mengmeng, you go in first and I'll move things for your parents." Wang Yuelan still insisted on helping.

Mengmeng also shouted: "Grandma, I work too."

Not letting her work was not enough, but Cheng Xiaolin couldn't resist her and finally let her go home with a bag of fruit.

……

Cao Jianlong has been waiting for Cao Shujie. He called Cao Shujie yesterday afternoon and learned that Cao Shujie had gone to Chengjiapo, Dayao Town to accompany his wife to her parents' house. Cao Jianlong could not forcefully call him back.

He told Cao Shujie to call him when he came back the next day.

But before Cao Shujie could call him, Cao Jianlong heard from others that Cao Shujie had just arrived home, and he rode his electric bike directly over to find Cao Shujie.

"Uncle Long, I just finished my work, please let me take a breather." Cao Shujie pointed to the vegetables that had not been put up yet, feeling helpless.

"Take a look at these dishes. If you want to eat something, just take it." Cao Shujie said.

They are all seasonal vegetables, including cucumbers, tomatoes, eggplants, and beans. They are quite complete.

Cao Shujie specifically explained: "My mother-in-law grew them all by herself without any pesticides."

Cao Jianlong now urgently wants Cao Shujie to go with him to the village committee compound, but he also knows that what he does is indeed a bit unethical.

"I won't take the vegetables. I also grow them at home. If I had known you were short of this, I would have asked your aunt to bring you some."

"Don't bother, Uncle Long, don't do that. I don't have any shortage at home, and they are growing on the mountain." Cao Shujie quickly refused. .

Her mother, Wang Yuelan, said from the side: "Shujie, why don't you go quickly? Finish your work first and then come back to rest?"

"Okay!" Cao Shujie was not pretentious. He also rode an electric bike and went to the village committee compound with Cao Jianlong.

Not long after, Wang Yuelan also rode an electric tricycle, driving towards the village committee compound with her daughter-in-law and granddaughter.

The weather was still a little hot, so Cao Zhenghu didn't go out anymore. He was watching TV at home.

Cao Shujie and the others came to the village committee compound, and Cao Jianlong shouted twice on the loudspeaker, asking everyone at home in Caojiazhuang to send two people over to receive benefits.

This time, the people from Caojiazhuang came faster.

Cao Shujie and the other five people were chatting in the office. More and more people came outside, and the courtyard was filled up in a short time.

"We are almost here. We will divide into three teams later and distribute the things as soon as possible." Cao Jianlong said.The main reason is that the temperature is relatively high in September, and things like freshly killed beef cannot be stored. The villagers have to take things back and store them in the refrigerator.

"Okay, uncle, I'll find someone to help me later. You guys can coordinate and we can finish the distribution as soon as possible." Cao Shujie said.

After this division, they took three printed lists of the entire village, with a total of 396 households, 25 more households than the year Cao Shujie first came back.

In addition to the dead population, the new population has also increased in recent years. The total population is now 32 more than when Cao Shujie first came back.

This is still the population settled in Caojiazhuang, not counting those who have moved their household registration.

In addition to the normal birth population, as Caojiazhuang's economic development has become increasingly obvious in the past two years, many people who have moved their hukou and are not living a satisfactory life outside have turned around and moved their hukou back.

Speaking of these things, Cao Shujie felt very proud.

One thing that can be said to all the people in the village is that in the two years since he took office, he has really done some practical things for the whole village, and he did not just use the name of a village director to do dirty things.

"Everyone, please pay attention. We need four people to help now. Let's send the things out as soon as possible. I have something else to tell you this afternoon." Cao Shujie shouted.

As soon as I finished speaking, there were more than 20 people in front of me rushing to help with the work.

In the end, Cao Shujie only selected 4 people close to him, and asked the rest to return to the team, line up, and prepare to receive their things.

"We will be divided into three teams later, and your names will be in all the teams. Don't worry, just be in evenly divided teams."

"I believe in everyone's integrity, but I would like to emphasize again that no one is allowed to receive more. If you receive more than one share, you will not only have to get everything back this time, but you will not have your share in the future." Cao Shujie finally said. After following the rules, we started handing out things.

Two barrels of peanut oil, 4 pounds of exquisite bulk mooncakes, 20 pounds of dried sausages for one family, 5 pounds of beef, and 200 yuan in cash for each family.

Things like rice, noodles, and eggs are not rare in rural areas.

The village representatives elected at that time also said there was no need to buy this.

After buying oil, sausages and moon cakes, they didn't know what to buy.

The actual price of the things they had bought must have exceeded 300 yuan, but the village committee did not dig it. In the end, Cao Jianlong and the other four discussed it, and based on the opinions of the village representatives, they collected the remaining 4 yuan in cash and gave it to them. If each family needs something, buy it yourself.

After Cao Shujie learned about this distribution plan, he was also impressed.

According to his idea, it would definitely be more economical to buy all the 500 yuan into things and distribute them, but he forgot that for the villagers, the most economical thing is to give them money and let them buy it themselves.

"Cao Zhenglin."

"Cao Jianfang."

"Gao Long."

"Liu Guangcheng."

"..."

Everyone who came to collect things would state their names. After seeing the village committee members cross out their names on the list, the four villagers who just stood up to help then gave them a gift together. Everyone was very happy. Take the things away without forgetting to say thank you loudly before leaving.

At this time, Cao Shujie would say: "Don't forget to come over for the meeting in the afternoon."

"Don't worry, Director Cao, I'll definitely never forget it." The man carrying the things away shouted loudly.

The delivery of things was not completed until 1 pm, and Cao Shujie and the others did not even have time to eat lunch.

After giving away all the things, Cao Shujie and the others felt their hands were numb from exhaustion, their mouths were dry, and they didn't want to move at all.

At this time, Cao Jianlong said: "Let's stop cooking and go to the farm restaurant to have something to eat, and then come back as soon as possible for the meeting."

"Let's go." Cao Shujie said happily.

"I'll treat you at noon today."

"There is no reason for you to ask for it. The money will come from the village committee today." Cao Jianlong said to Gao Changyin.

Gao Changyin nodded, and the five of them walked towards the farm restaurant together with the four people who helped just now.

I didn’t drink at noon, just had a simple meal, and then returned to the village committee compound.

At this time, there were already some people waiting in the courtyard.

Seeing them coming back, everyone who was chatting became quiet.

Cao Jianlong went to the loudspeaker and shouted. When all the villagers in the village came over, he motioned to Cao Shujie to speak.

Cao Shujie was not polite and took the microphone and said: "Dear young and old men in Caojiazhuang, I am Cao Shujie. I have a few heartfelt words to say to all the young and old men in the village today."

Everyone said nothing and waited quietly.

Cao Shujie continued: "Here I first apologize to all the young and old men in the village."

Hearing what Cao Shujie said, the others were a little confused. Even Cao Jianlong and the others didn't know what Cao Shujie was going to do.

"Most of this year, I have been engaged in my own affairs, and I have been less involved in village affairs. This is my fault."

After he finished speaking, the villagers breathed a sigh of relief.

"Director Cao, I don't blame you for this, just be busy with your own business!"

"That's right, whoever dares to blame you will be the first one I won't let go of!"

"Is there anyone who is talking nonsense? Director Cao, you don't care about the faults of villains. Don't be on the same level as him."

"..."

There were all supportive voices below, which made Cao Shujie particularly moved after listening to it.

He pressed his hand down and signaled everyone to calm down: "No one is gossiping, and no one is expressing dissatisfaction. Just rest assured."

He continued: "Fortunately, in the past two years, Uncle Long, Grandpa Zhengcun, Aunt Ping, and Uncle Yin and I have led everyone to plant fruit trees, raise cattle, and grow pasture."

"Although the fruit trees have not yet seen a harvest, I guarantee that as long as you are willing to sell the kiwis you grow to me, Xuemeng Food Factory will collect as much as you can according to the market price, and you will not have to worry about not being able to sell the kiwis in the future. ."

"Raising cattle and growing pasture have yielded benefits. I don't need to emphasize how much money you have earned. There are more people building new houses in our village now. I have to say proudly that this village director's work has not been in vain."

The people present all nodded, and they very much recognized Cao Shujie's words.

Even Cao Jianlong and the other four of them agreed with Cao Shujie's words.

He knew very well that if Cao Shujie hadn't led Caojiazhuang, they would still be the same as before, and there wouldn't be any big changes at all.

Cao Shujie continued: "But, our life is better now, but I think this is not enough. All of us in Caojiazhuang should be more united together. We should work together in one place and use our efforts to make the future better." Better off.”

"In order to facilitate further emotional exchanges among the young and old men in the village, I personally suggest that starting from this year, all the young and old men in the village will choose a day to hold a 'family banquet' together. Do you agree?" Cao Shujie asked.

Everyone below was stunned.

Did not understand.

I didn't understand what Cao Shujie meant at all.

Not to mention that they didn't understand, even Cao Jianlong and the other four didn't understand. What on earth was Cao Shujie talking about?
"Shujie, what does a family dinner mean?" Cao Jianlong asked.

Cao Shujie smiled: "We just choose a day to prepare this meal together, so that the whole village of 1386 people can have a meal together."

When Cao Shujie said this, everyone understood.

When they think about the scene of 1386 people gathering together to eat, they yearn for it.

This has never happened before.

Even if there are red and white events in Caojiazhuang, it is impossible to bring the whole village together to have a meal.

Cao Jianlong, Cao Zhengcun, Gao Changyin and Lu Ping also instantly understood what Cao Shujie's so-called family banquet was about.
If this thing is really done, they will feel at least once a year in the future that the 396 families in Caojiazhuang must be closer than before.

If that were the case, they would definitely be more united. From now on, no matter what they want to do or what industry they want to develop, the cohesion they will unleash will definitely be unimaginable now.

"I agree!" Someone in the audience shouted.

It was like a signal, and after he finished he was followed by someone shouting 'I agree too'.

For a time, there were voices of agreement one after another. Some people even stood up and shouted, "Once a year is too little, it must be twice a year."

Others were shouting: "When the whole village gathers for dinner, everyone who works or goes to school outside, no matter what he is doing, must come back, unless he does not consider himself a member of Caojiazhuang."

"I also think it should be like this." Someone else said.

They feel that when someone uses the excuse of being busy at work or school, it is not an excuse at all and can be solved.

Gao Weicheng in the crowd shouted: "Don't worry, Director Cao, if Gao Fei doesn't come back by then, I'll break his legs and won't let him enter Cao's Village from now on."
