Chapter 544 Young and Carefree
But if they plant apple trees, it will delay the harvest of crops for several years, and the honest farmers will suffer great losses. He couldn't help but say: "If they want to push the vegetable greenhouse, let them pay for it. We won't cheat anyone. Let them pay the amount of money when it is built. As for the income in the next few years, it's a bit bullying to ask them to pay three times, so let's pay according to the original price."
"Are you not optimistic about growing apples?" Although the farmers are honest, they are not stupid, so many people can taste the meaning of Yang Dongxu's tone.
"Whether they are optimistic or not is another matter. We are making money from the vegetable greenhouse. We can't just give up if they say they will push it back, right? Many people in the village still borrowed money from my family to build greenhouses. If they don't pay, it's okay if the apples can really make money, but what if they lose money? Then how can I come to your door to ask for money?"
"That's the truth, but the higher-ups may not agree." The grandfather said.
Yang Dongxu rolled his eyes. If he could agree, then hell. After seeing that the vegetable greenhouses made money, many people in the village started to invest in them. Even the smallest investment was at least 5,000 yuan, and most of them were more than 10,000 yuan. There were even several families in the village who had the courage to spend 20,000 or 30,000 yuan.
Not to mention the annual income after the push, the cost of these greenhouses alone was hundreds of thousands. So much money is not a small amount even if it is put in the county, let alone the town, because the county to which Wuli Town belongs is a well-known poverty-stricken county in the country.
"Whether they agree or not is their business. If the families with greenhouses are willing to push them down without compensation, that is your own business." Yang Dongxu was too lazy to talk about this topic.
He wanted to seek benefits for the people in the village, but he would never be a sucker who rushed into everything. So he had done his best in this matter, and as for how to choose, it was his own business.
"Then let's wait and see about this matter." The third grandfather didn't say anything else at this time. As for forcing Yang Dongxu, he obviously couldn't do it.
The reason why Yangjia Village has its current life is not entirely due to Yang Dongxu's family. But it has to be said that the Yang family did play a major role. At this time, if you want to eat meat and want the Yang family to be beaten, you will be criticized.
In fact, the reason why so many people came together to ask about this matter is that they didn't mean to force Yang Dongxu. The main reason is that it cost too much money to build a greenhouse, and they don't know how to grow apples. So they don't feel at ease if they don't ask Yang Dongxu, a college student.
"Then let's leave it like this for now." The great grandfather made a conclusion, then stood up and walked out.
Although the others were a little hesitant, they swallowed what they wanted to say and stood up and left together.
"Xuzi, call your dad to have a drink at the great father's house in the evening." Yang Rukun, the son of the great grandfather who stood up, said.
"How about going to my house to have a drink tomorrow?" Someone followed.
There are rules for inviting people to dinner in the village. If you are not a good person, no one will come to your house even if you invite people to eat meat. Similarly, if you are not good at getting along, others will not invite you to dinner. The Yang family is undoubtedly a family with good character and ability. When there is something going on in the village, or when important guests from someone's house are looking for someone to accompany them for drinks, Yang's father Shengli is the one who goes the most.
"As a young person, you can let the elders treat you. Come to my house tomorrow. I brought back a lot of braised beef from Yanjing. This is a rare yak beef from Inner Mongolia. Everyone will come to taste it."
Although it doesn't seem like a big sucker, the villagers give face to the Yang family all year round. Occasionally, when the pig farm is too busy to take care of the fields, there are villagers to help. So it is reasonable to invite everyone to dinner.
"Okay, tomorrow we will prepare to eat at the rich house." Many people said with a smile.
However, this was not said to Yang Dongxu, but to Yang's father who came out of the kitchen with a tea bottle.
A group of people came and went, leaving behind a lot of cigarette butts in the house and yard to be cleaned up.
"If this matter is difficult, don't say too much. Anyway, the place where our pig farm is built is not suitable for planting trees and will not be pushed." Yang's father said to his son who was taller than him.
The reason why he went to the kitchen instead of sitting in the main room just now was that he was afraid that he would be forced to make a decision for his son.
"Don't worry, your son, I'm not stupid. I will say what I should say and do what I should do. I won't say anything about our family's affairs. By the way, where is my brother-in-law?" Yang Dongxu asked when he saw that Liu Lihong was not in the kitchen door.
"What brother-in-law, brother-in-law, is there anyone who is so stubborn as you?" Yang's mother also came into the house and poked her head out of the kitchen to glare at her son.
"I'm afraid my sister will be embarrassed, so I'm calling her out in advance. Besides, my family doesn't want anything from the man. As long as he treats my sister well and we can live a peaceful life, that's enough.
My sister is running a shop in Yanjing now. Even if she really finds a local man, she will be in Yanjing all year round, right? As for being bullied if she marries to a foreign place, she will be bullied if I'm here." Yang Dongxu hugged his mother's shoulders and comforted her.
"Go away." Mother Yang shook her shoulders unhappily.
But her face looked better. It was obvious that she listened to her son's comfort. However, she still felt uncomfortable when she thought about her daughter marrying far away. This is a worry of parents. It's useless to persuade them. It takes time to slowly get rid of it.
It was not dark yet. Seeing Xiaowu and a few others hanging around at the door, Yang Dongxu took out a pack of cigarettes from his father's pocket and put it in his pocket: "Mom, I'm going out for a while. I want to eat hand-rolled noodles. Can you help me make them tonight?"
"If you want to eat, make them yourself." Yang's mother glanced at her son, and watched her son and Xiaowu and a few others walk to the south of the village and shouted: "Don't walk too far, come back for dinner later."
"I know, mom." Yang Dongxu waved his hand without turning his head.
Going south is naturally to stroll by the river. Although strolling by the river in the winter is more speechless than other places, young people are hot-tempered and walk in other places.
"I heard that you have been working outside for a few years and have done well. Why didn't you bring a wife back?" Yang Dongxu took out the cigarettes and spread them around, and put one in his mouth and lit it and took a sip.
Although he doesn't smoke, he always feels something is missing if he doesn't hold a cigarette in his mouth at this time.
"How can we not talk about it? We are living together." Da Liang, who was smoking, raised his eyebrows and said ambiguously.
"Then why didn't you bring her back?" Yang Dongxu also laughed.
Children of this age are indeed one or two years younger than the legal age for marriage, but in rural areas, people naturally don't care about this. So his woman is obviously easy to resonate with.
"My brother is afraid of being beaten by my father, and he threatened me not to say anything." Xiao Tao also teased his elder brother at this time.
"Go away, be careful I will beat you." Xiao Wu glared at his younger brother and took a puff of cigarette.
"What? Don't you like the girl or what?"
"No, I told me that my family is also going to buy a big truck. Next year, let me learn to drive first, and then follow him to drive a sports car to prevent me from going out to work." Xiao Wu said a little depressed.
Young people at this time are obviously still in an age where they don't feel pressure. Their parents are still young, they have girlfriends but are not married, not to mention any children.
So after finally going out and being able to let go of yourself, you are suddenly called home and not allowed to go out. No matter who it is, it would be depressing.
"Do you really not want to drive a sports car, or do you feel that you have no money to spend when working under the supervision of your father?" Yang Dongxu asked.
The reason why children don't like to work with their parents is that they are not free when their parents watch them. The other is naturally because if they drive their own sports cars, there is obviously no salary, and the occasional pocket money is not enough for these young men.
"Both, I always feel uncomfortable working at home." Xiaowu admitted it directly without any hesitation.
"Then you should talk to your father about it."
"I almost got beaten after I talked to him." Xiaowu looked depressed, and then stared at Yang Dongxu.
"Why are you looking at me? Ask me to help you? Even if I say it, it's useless, right? After all, the sports car does need manpower. Now everyone in the village wants to buy a truck. Dad will definitely be worried about asking people from other villages for help, right?"
"I heard that you are doing business while studying outside. Is there any work suitable for me? I will go to help you."
"Include me." Daliang followed.
The two younger brothers Xiaotao and Xiaoliang behind him also looked interested. Obviously, the outside world is more attractive to them than making money at home.
"If you have any good ideas and want to do business, I will support you with some money. As for the businesses I do, others are doing it and I invest some money. After all, I have to go to school, so how can I have time to do business." Yang Dongxu shrugged.
As for the business he did outside, there was no need to ask that it must be his uncle who didn't know that there was a lot of horse urine that time and told it out as bragging capital. As for this matter, as long as Yang's father and mother thought that their son was very good, they would obviously not object, so this matter was tacitly accepted.
"That's right." Xiao Wu nodded after hearing what Yang Dongxu said. He also felt that it was a bit unreliable to do business while studying, although Yang Dongxu was indeed very good at studying.
And the sentence just now was obviously just a casual question. Several of them followed the village to work outside to earn money before graduating from junior high school. Yang Dongxu was a college student, so even if he invested money to do business, it would probably be some high-tech business, which they would definitely not understand, so naturally they could not go to work.
This topic ended, and for a while, several people didn't know what to talk about. They walked along the river dam while smoking, and suddenly Xiao Wu bumped into Yang Dongxu.
"What's wrong?"
"Da Liang's partner?" Xiao Wu said with a somewhat ambiguous smile.
At this time, Yang Dongxu noticed that several people had walked a long way along the river dam and came to another village. A girl was walking towards her village with a waist-high bamboo basket filled with wheat straw.
Now every household raises cattle and sheep, so wheat straw will not burn in the fields at this time, nor will it crush. Instead, they used four wheels to press the straw twice and then stack it into a solid straw stack to feed the livestock in winter. When he looked up, Daliang had already run over, snatched the bamboo basket from the girl who shyly pushed him away, and walked towards the neighboring village.
