Super Orchard

Chapter 102
The sun was hot and the heat was unbearable. After eating the last popsicle in the refrigerator, Shen Yangguang drove out, going to the Xingwang Supermarket at the entrance of the village to buy more and eat slowly.

When the car drove to the middle of the village, there was a noisy sound from the village committee's yard. Shen Yangguang was a little curious, so he got out of the car and went in to see what happened.

Inside the spacious tile-roofed house, a large ceiling fan was spinning non-stop. There were dozens of people sitting in the room, shaking cattail fans and chatting. shouted: "Hold your words! Let's start the meeting!"

A man yelled: "I said, old Wei, why don't you turn on the air conditioner, how can you have a meeting if you can heat people to death today?"

"It would be nice to have a big ceiling fan. Do you still want an air conditioner? That's fine. You can donate one to the village committee. On behalf of the village, I would like to thank you and your family!"

The man froze immediately, and muttered a few more words, and then there was no sound.

Wei Liangping saw Shen Yangguang who had just walked in the door, and called him to come in and listen. Shen Yangguang didn't know what was going on, and asked, "Isn't this inconvenient? I heard the noise here when I was passing by just now." Come and have a look, I'll go if there's nothing else to do."

Wei Liangping pointed to an empty seat in front of him and said, "This is the general meeting of the villagers. Anyone from the village can come. If there is any inconvenience, you can sit here."

An aunt sitting in the back seat also said, "Sunshine, come in and listen."

Several nearby villagers also chimed in.

Seeming to see Shen Yangguang's doubts, the aunt went on to say: "Old Wei announced the meeting with a loudspeaker in the morning. I think you were busy in the orchard and didn't hear it."

Shen Yangguang thinks about it too. The orchard is about a kilometer away from here, and there are walls separated, so it's strange that he can hear the village radio.

Shen Yangguang was just a little surprised to see the sparse dozens of people. Jinquan Village is not big or small, and there are hundreds of households and nearly [-] people. There must be a few hundred people, right?

Thinking of today's sunny weather, it becomes clear that most people don't want to run out on such a hot day, and they must be hiding at home to enjoy the cool air. Besides, many villagers are not interested in these meetings. One scene is no surprise.

Today, Shen Yangguang is quite famous in the village. Not only do everyone know that his orchard business is getting bigger and bigger, but also many family members or relatives work in Jinquan Orchard, so they are very polite to Shen Yangguang. It's hard to give up the hospitality, Shen Yangguang was fine at first, so he sat in the front and listened like a good friend.

Wei Liangping cleared his throat and continued: "The county's documents have been issued. Starting this autumn, the county will allocate excellent teacher resources to the village schools below to support education. Jinquan Primary School in our village will also have several county teachers. The teachers from the village are here, so our village has to welcome the supporting teachers with the best appearance..."

A woman sitting not far away got impatient, yawned and said, "Old Wei, don't be so long-winded, why don't you just tell us to come?"

"We don't understand what it means to build a spiritual civilization, so just speak up!"

"Yeah, what's the matter in this hot day, I'm going home to take a shower if I'm fine."

Wei Liangping was also flustered from the heat, took another sip of herbal tea and shook his cattail fan and said, "To put it simply, we need to clean up the elementary school, and repaint and decorate the school building that has been abandoned for a long time, and buy some beds and tables. Such furniture, let the teaching teachers live in."

"All in all, everyone who has money will contribute money and those who have no money will contribute. Every family must send at least one person to the school to help. If there is no one to send, each family will pay 200 yuan, and the village will buy what it needs. supplies."

Hearing that money and efforts are needed again, some people couldn't sit still: "Why do you need us for this kind of thing? Why didn't the county allocate funds? Did you get greedy by you, Wei?"

Wei Liangping's reputation in the village has always been good. If he was said to be greedy for money, almost no one would believe him, but everyone still wondered why he had to do it himself instead of allocating funds.

Wei Liangping said with some helplessness: "You all know the situation in our county. Where is the extra money? The money allocated is only enough to repair the school building. As for cleaning and buying some other supplies, there is really no money. what."

After speaking, he pointed to the questioner and said, "If you dare to talk nonsense again, son of a mountain, I will smash your mouth. Can you talk nonsense about being greedy for money? If you don't believe me, come and check the accounts. If you can't find out This is why, why don’t you pay for the purchase?”

Shanwazi didn't dare to say anything, for fear that someone would ask him to pay.

Wei Liangping went on to say: "Starting tomorrow morning, people from the village committee will be at the entrance of the primary school to register. Anyone who doesn't come must pay the money! For those who can't see people and money, one household counts as one." Post all of them at the gate of the village committee for public announcement!"

Some people don't want to help and don't want to pay money. After all, their children don't go to school there when they grow up, but everyone in the village keeps their heads down and doesn't look up.

It's just that 200 yuan is too much. Basically, everyone is determined to help, but want to pay for it yourself?no way!
Old Wei knew this kind of thinking very well, so he checked the scene again to see if there was anyone who didn't want to work and was willing to pay. Suddenly, the whole room fell silent, and only two people raised their hands out of dozens of people.

It can be seen from this that there are hundreds of households in the entire village, and I am afraid that there are not many who are willing to pay. According to this ratio, if you can scrape together 4000 yuan, it will be the sky.

Wei Liangping was a little frustrated. He was very concerned about all things in the village and wanted to do everything well. This time the county sent teachers to support education, not only to help the education in the village, but also to give feedback According to the situation in the village, Wei Liangping is unwilling to let others say that he only provides bad tables and beds, not even a decent place to live.

Seeing the hot weather, Shen Yangguang didn't want to go to work, so he said, "I'm willing to pay."

Wei Liangping's eyes lit up, he quickly wrote down Shen Yangguang's name, and then scanned the faces of all the villagers and asked, "Is there anyone else who is willing to pay?"

Then, the room fell into silence again.

Shen Yangguang also saw Wei Liangping's difficulties, so he asked, "In addition to repair costs, how much would it cost to buy those supplies?"

Wei Liangping pinched his fingers and said, "There are four teachers in total. The cheap ones cost 1 yuan just for the four sets of beds, desks and wardrobes."

1 yuan is nothing to Shen Yangguang, so he said, "Well, I will pay 1 yuan!"

Wei Liangping suspected that he had heard it wrong, and confirmed again: "You offered 1 yuan?"

Shen Yangguang nodded and repeated: "Yes, I will pay 1 yuan."

Wei Liangping was so excited that he almost burst into tears. In the past, whenever money was mentioned in the village, it was the most embarrassing time. In fact, we can’t blame everyone for this. After all, the villagers’ living standards are not high, and life is very tight. , no one has spare money.

It’s all right now, with the 1 yuan, the new bed is fine. Wei Liangping was incoherent in excitement. He thought it was another fruitless result, but it was solved all at once. He was so excited that he wanted to hug him. Shen Yangguang kissed the two.

The villagers sitting below were also very surprised. Although they knew that Shen Yangguang had made a lot of money, no one's money came from the strong wind. In the eyes of most villagers, it is already a huge sum of money.At this time, the villagers looked at Shen Yangguang not only politely, but also with a little more admiration.
