Chapter 8
Qiao Xin looked at the arrogant young man in his 20s and asked, "How many acres of sugarcane land does your family have? How many tons of sugarcane go into the factory every year?"

Young man: "A total of about 35 acres, about [-] to [-] tons of sugar cane per year."

Qiao Xin: "The yield per mu is too low, no wonder you haven't escaped poverty yet, and applied to the government for subsistence allowances."

"Ah?" Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay.I thought it was too hurtful for the beautiful mayor to say this, right?

Qiao Xin: "If you listen to my advice and replace all of them with New Taiwan Sugar No. 22 and No. 16 this year, apply enough fertilizer and manage them well, I guarantee that your sugarcane production will be at least [-] tons next year, and at least [-] tons in the coming year. If you can’t reach it, you come to me.”

The eyes of the young man who was still angry suddenly brightened: "Mayor, you must count your words!"

Qiao Xin: "I, Qiao Xin, never talk nonsense. I have already sampled and tested the soil in your village. It is very suitable for planting Xintai Sugar No. 22 and No. 16. These two varieties are not only higher than the conventional ones, Moreover, it can also resist drought and lodging. Everyone knows that there are often typhoons in the sixth and seventh months of the lunar calendar every year..."

The villagers did not expect that Mayor Meimei knew so much about sugarcane planting technology and spoke so profoundly and professionally, it was hard for them to refuse to accept it.

"Mayor, what if we all plant these high-quality varieties, which are worse than before or do not increase income? Can the government give us a guarantee?" said an uncle in his 50s.

Qiao Xin: "Uncle, I'm sorry, the government is not an insurance company, so it can't give you this kind of guarantee..."

"Hahaha..." Everyone laughed.

The uncle blushed with embarrassment, and hesitated: "No... no... yes, I... I just want to feel at ease."

Qiao Xin: "If it wasn't for the purpose of increasing everyone's income and getting rid of poverty as soon as possible, I would go to such great lengths to recruit everyone to work and distribute sugarcane seeds to everyone? Why am I idle? Besides, what is excellent? I believe everyone knows There are a few, but I just don’t want to pay. Now I don’t want you to pay, you come to work, and I will give you the sugarcane seeds!”

The villagers finally realized Qiao Xin's good intentions and stopped resisting, expressing their willingness to work.

……

The villagers in Shuangqiao Village on Xiao Rui's side were not so good at doing ideological work. When they heard that the daily salary was [-] catties of sugarcane seeds, they all ran away.

Xiao Rui called Qiao Xin, wanting to tease that her coup was useless, but heard Qiao Xin say it was done and work would start tomorrow.

"What you said is true? Are the villagers really willing to receive three hundred catties of sugarcane seeds every day?"

Qiao Xin smiled and said, "Why are you lying to me? The representatives of every household have signed."

Xiao Rui suddenly felt very uncomfortable. Why is there such a big gap?
The next morning, the head of Xinhua Village led the villagers happily back to the village to dig sewage ditches and septic tanks.

Xiao Rui came to help guide, he and Qiao Xin walked side by side on the village road.It attracted the attention of the villagers frequently.

There was a naughty young man who couldn't help joking: "The two town mayors are interested in love, and I wouldn't believe it if they were not in love."

Another guy echoed: "On the stage they say they don't hold hands, but off stage they secretly date! Congratulations, the man is talented and the woman is beautiful! A perfect match!"

Qiao Xin remembered what she said on the stage of the blind date, and suddenly felt extremely embarrassed, and deliberately stared at the two young men with a straight face: "If you don't concentrate on your work, you will be deducted a hundred catties of sugarcane seeds."

Unexpectedly, the two young men said in unison: "I believe you are the only one!"

Immediately there was continuous laughter next to him.

Although Qiao Xin's knife mouth often reprimanded the villagers speechless, she was very close to the people on weekdays, and the villagers also liked to joke with her.

When Xiao Rui saw Qiao Xin who was so down-to-earth and not putting on airs, he immediately looked at her with admiration.
