Dashan Orchard 1988

Chapter 206 Laying the Foundation

Li Muyang didn't target Liu Gong intentionally. He just didn't want Li Jianshe to take advantage of him in vain.

In fact, part of the funds for this kind of power distribution station project are originally used for road construction.

Otherwise, things won’t be able to get in, and it will be inconvenient to repair or use in the future.

If he asked Liu Gong and the others to go their own way, it would seem like he had done a good thing, but the money saved would not matter much, but would all go into Li Jianshe's pocket.

This past life has been thunderous, it is a fact.

Instead of doing this, he decided to take advantage of his own strength and took the opportunity to ask Liu Gong and the others to use a small portion of the project funds to help him repair the remaining short section of road.

In this way, Liu Gong and the others could also use the road. As for himself, he had a small advantage, but not much.

The road in front of his door has almost been repaired, and about [-] to [-]% of the road has not yet been repaired. Recently, the brick and tile factory has fewer waste bricks, so it has been temporarily stopped.

If you continue to repair it, it will probably take a while, and you will need manpower and material resources to do this kind of thing. If you let Liu Gong and the others repair it, it will definitely be much faster.

Although he was short of money, he didn't really want to steal money from Liu Gong. In fact, maybe he didn't need the 300 yuan Liu Gong said to build the road.

Li Muyang used to be a very honest person. He felt that he could not take advantage of others in anything, and would rather suffer more himself.

But now he is not.

Without harming the interests of others, he would not let himself suffer more.

This is equivalent to an accumulation of experience and a kind of maturity.

If a person blindly only allows himself to suffer losses, then after a long time, he will become more tired and gradually stop doing these better things.

Treat people's kindness as a kind of storage, keep using it, and it will eventually run out.

"Do you think this will work? Liu Gong, I have an idea. You can think about it."

"Comrade Muyang, it doesn't matter if you say so."

"That's right, look at the road in our house, isn't it still a long way from the corner in front? If you really want to use it, that part must be built, isn't that true?
Well, if you pass by us, I won't say anything. You just need to arrange for people to repair the remaining small section of the road. "

"Ah...Is that it?" Liu Gong didn't react.

What is this?

What I just said was so serious, I thought I was asking the lion to open his mouth, but I didn't expect it was just such a simple request.

"Yes, that's it. What else do you think I want? Do I really want that much money from you?"

Liu Gong smiled and said nothing. The meaning was self-evident.

“I just want you to spend your money where it should be spent.

However, you should still be careful when using the roads.

My road is made of bricks and soil at the bottom and has not been completely compacted. If your weight is not uniform, or you force a turn on my road, you may make a big hole in the road.

I can let you use it, but if you damage it, you must repair it for me.

We agreed on this in advance, one code will be the same. "

“That’s for sure, that’s for sure, don’t worry, we will definitely be careful.

As for the road you mentioned, Comrade Muyang, it's easy to handle. Let's build it. Originally, I had to use your road to build it, otherwise we wouldn't be able to reach the southern tip. "

"Okay, if you look at it this way, we can still reach a consensus."

"Thank you so much." Things took a turn for the worse and suddenly improved, which made Liu Gong, who was worried just now, happy.

"No, it can be considered as making a friend. Maybe I will have trouble finding Liu Gong in the future. I hope Liu Gong won't turn me away."

"Where are you? What did you say? Comrade Muyang, I will keep the convenience you gave me today in mind. If you need me anywhere in the future, just come to me. I will do my best to the best of my ability."

"it is good."

"Okay, let's settle the matter like this. I'll arrange for people to repair this section of road immediately when I go down. It will probably take a day or two. After the repair is completed, I will start bringing in our equipment?"

"Row."

Li Muyang smiled and nodded.

Liu Gong and his colleague walked far away. The colleague couldn't control his mood and said to Liu Gong: "Master, why are you so polite to that Li Muyang? This matter does not need to be so troublesome at all. Ask the village chief to go directly to him He just said no, making it seem like we still owed him."

Liu Gong glanced at his apprentice and said with a smile: "You think things are so simple? Let me tell you, we have met someone easy to talk to.

When encountering this kind of thing, as long as it is a person, he will want to make a lot of money. If he can get a little something, even if he is a very good person, many people will still ask for it. "

"Why? Don't they use electricity anymore? Besides, this land is not their own."

"What do you know? Didn't you hear? This land is called private land.

Do you know what private land is? It is not within the scope of contracted land. Our farmer brothers can decide the use of the land independently.

Li Muyang built this land into a road, so this road belongs to their home, and you cannot pass on other people's roads. "

"Then we can go to the village chief and ask him to tell him. Doesn't he still listen to their village chief? Besides, didn't you give the village chief money?"

"Don't talk nonsense. I'm not giving money to the village chief. I'm giving subsidies to the village committee. If you talk like this and others hear you, how will we deal with it?"

Liu Gong scolded his apprentice seriously.

"Besides, let me tell you, a village named after a surname is more troublesome than we thought. Why? Because there are so many people with the same surname in this village.

Although he is the village chief, he still has to consider more issues when handling specific matters. There is no forced arrangement at all, otherwise, there will be a big dispute.

That is not a matter between one or two families. It may be a conflict between dozens of people in the entire village versus dozens or even hundreds of people.

Which village chief dares to do this?
Besides, isn’t Li Jianshe’s surname also Li?
Doesn't he still have to consider how to get along in the village in the future? "

"What age are you talking about? This is not the old society."

"Idiot. No matter which society you go to, human relationships will always exist.

If you go out to work on your own in the future and look like you are now, you will suffer a lot.

Our country is now delivering electricity to households. There are many more complex and difficult projects than this. One day you will have to take the lead alone. It is impossible for me to stand in front of you all the time.

It's important to remember that our only purpose is to deliver electricity from the inside.It doesn't matter how you send it, what's important is to keep this main mission unwavering.

The above gives us a certain amount of project funds, and we must use it wisely.We need to foreshadow the relationship that needs to be foreshadowed, but we can’t be blind. Do you understand? "

"Okay. Master, if you say this, then it must be right. I'll just listen." "Hey. You young people have many ideas, but you are also very naive. There are actually many ways to get things done.

But you always have to suffer a lot before you understand this truth. I can't stop you. You have to learn more later.

Having said that, in fact, the Li Muyang we met today has a lot that you can learn from him. I won’t point out the specifics. You can think about it yourself when you go back. "

"Is there any? I don't seem to feel much. Master, please help me order some."

"Okay, I'll just order one. Can you tell me what Li Muyang's ultimate goal is today?"

"Build that section of road?"

"If his real purpose was just to build that section of road, then he could actually have mentioned it from the beginning. If we want to go there, we must build that section of road, right? But why didn't he say it, but instead told me repeatedly? Emphasize what benefits he can gain.”

"Is it to make us take the initiative, or is it to make us feel guilty that he should have gotten something in the first place?"

"There are reasons for that, but not entirely."

"Then what else is there? I can't think of it. Isn't it just a section of the road? It's so troublesome. We originally had the project funds, he just needs to raise it, and we will make up some money for him."

"You're impatient, aren't you, haha.

In fact, he has a very obscure meaning.It's just a side story telling us not to give the money from the project to others casually. It's useless if we give it to others. "

"Ah...Master, what you mean is..."

"Stop it, that's what you mean, just know it."

"Oh."

The apprentice nodded. After being prompted by the master, and thinking back to what Li Muyang said just now, he suddenly understood a lot.

I thought to myself, it turns out that there can be such people in this village.

I had heard the village chief say that Li Muyang was an easy person to deal with, but when we talked about it, I didn't feel it at all. I thought his personality was ruined.

I didn't expect that everything would change and stay true to its roots.
.
Now that the agreement was reached, the power distribution station quickly began to arrange teams to repair the road. They repaired the road very quickly. Several vehicles took turns to drive in.

Moreover, what was pulled was not waste bricks, but stones.

This is faster, more convenient and more useful than Li Muyang using bricks.

Li Muyang took the opportunity to gather some wool and asked Liu Gong and the others to pull a few more carts of gravel and sprinkle another layer on the entire road in front of his door.

With a brick base, gravel pavement, and if you have enough money, a layer of asphalt is laid on top, the road will be completely repaired.

But at the moment, Liu Gong and the others have no plans to repair the asphalt on it. They are just smoothing the unleveled section in front and then sprinkling gravel to ensure that cars can pass through.

A few days later, the construction crews hired by Li Mudi were also in place.

Perhaps in order to speed up the process, Li Muchi hired a dozen people.

On the first day, I mainly did some preparation work. First, I pulled up the four corners of the entire yard, laid the edges, and sprinkled the width of the foundation that needed to be dug with lime powder. It was almost dark after finishing these tasks.

Li Muyang had prepared various vegetables in advance and bought wine. He comforted them and let everyone eat and drink well.

Everyone praised it while eating, saying that after working for so long, they had never had such a solid meal.

At ordinary construction sites, although food and drinks are included, in reality they just make a meal of noodles or steamed buns with cold dishes.

It's not like Li Muyang's family. Every dish has meat in it, and they are given wine to drink. They all said that they must have made Li Muyang's work comfortable.

This is also more in line with Li Muyang's hopes.

If he doesn't do this, others will finish the work, but at first he feels that everyone's work is also very hard.

Such a hot day.It's not easy.

Secondly, he believes that people's hearts are made of flesh. If you treat others well, others will treat you better.

Most of the workers are simple people, and they are often discriminated against and ignored by others outside.When you meet an enthusiastic boss like Li Muyang, you will definitely be more grateful and you will do better when doing things.

After the foundation was drawn, the next week was all about digging the foundation.

Li Muyang's yard is very large and must be built entirely with brick walls, so the foundation must be dug relatively deep, and when digging the foundation, the surrounding waterways must also be dug out.

In many old yards, water channels were not considered when they were built.

As a result, when it rains heavily and water floods outside, the small water in the house cannot flow out at all.

Some people's yards are even lower than the outside. Not only does the water in the house not flow out, but the water from outside also pours in. This is a serious injury.

The annual rainfall in Qingcheng is very low, basically only one or two hundred millimeters, which is not as much as the rainfall in many southern provinces and cities.

Therefore, it gives people here the illusion that there will be no flood at all.

But in fact, because there is no decent river channel.Once it rains heavily, there is no place for the water to flow, so it can only cover everything.

As for the Loess Plateau, it is inherently undulating. The higher areas are fine, but those slightly lower will be irrigated by water.At this time, water channels are particularly important, at least so that the water in the home can be drained outside.

A house is being built here and a power distribution station is being built behind it, resulting in extremely loud noise near Li Muyang's home.

Li Muyang was still thinking about whether it would be too noisy for his mother to stay in a place like this.I'm going to go to my eldest brother's or second brother's house to live for a while.

Of course, the eldest brother and the second brother have no objections. They also feel that it is indeed so noisy and is not conducive to the life of the elderly.

But Yuan Rufeng disagreed at all.

She likes to sit at the door of the house every day, watching people around her working, thinking that the yard will be built soon, and she doesn't know how proud and happy she feels.

When the family was separated, there was nothing left for Li Muyang because the family was too poor.

Now I look at this child, relying on his own efforts, to finally build a decent yard and house. After the house is built, his daughter-in-law will be able to marry him.Not to mention how happy I am.

In the past two days, old ladies and old men from neighbors have been visiting their home.

These people are much more enthusiastic now.

I have been lying on the kang before, but it was not so popular.

After everyone came, the content of the chat was very simple. Most of them praised Li Muyang for being promising and capable, and by the way, they also expressed their envy and jealousy of Yuan Rufeng's upcoming happy life.

Yuan Rufeng must have said that it was nothing and that it was nothing, but in fact, she was more beautiful than anyone else in her heart.

I am already half buried in the loess, and I have no desires. As long as I can watch my children develop well one by one, that is better than anything else.
