Chapter 152 Awesome! Great idea!! [3000]
It was bustling most of the day.
Finished the meal.
Lu Yang took his wife back home.
I had been thinking that we could spend some time alone together while my father-in-law and mother-in-law were not at home.
As a result, my butt hasn’t even warmed up yet.
The old village party secretary, Yin Zhuangzhuang, and his son actually came to visit together.
This surprised Lu Yang a little.
When did these two father and son become so loving and filial? Last time they were shouting and calling for war, shouldn’t they be enemies?
"What a rare guest, Uncle, Zhuangzhuang, it's rare that you and your son have reconciled. Come in and sit down, and your wife will quickly pour some tea."
Lu Yang welcomed them in warmly.
"Ahem..."
"Yang, don't talk nonsense."
"I, the old man, came here this time to represent the village committee, and this little bastard came here to represent himself."
Oh.
Lu Yang understood this time.
He took the tea from his wife and handed it to the old village secretary, saying, "So, you are here for the road construction, uncle? Have you heard about it from my cousin, Lao Liu?"
The old village secretary took the tea and smiled, "What do you think? Your cousin is a famous big mouth in the village, don't you know that?"
"What he said spread throughout the village in less than an afternoon."
"Yang, you have to tell me the truth. If the village committee really decides to renovate the rough road leading into the village, can you afford it?"
Lu Yang chuckled and didn't rush to answer. He took the other cup of tea from his wife's hand and handed it to Yin Zhuangzhuang who was waiting beside him, rubbing his hands.
"You kid has something to say, let's talk later, I'll talk to your father first."
Yin Zhuangzhuang was sent away.
Ignore this guy.
Lu Yang then said to the old village party secretary: "Uncle, don't worry, you sit first. I am not the one who pays, but everyone should pool the money together. Of course, whoever damages the road more should pay more. I still agree with this."
Although I didn't get a satisfactory answer.
But the old village party secretary still nodded.
Lu Yang's words made him feel half relieved.
After thinking it over for a while, he said, "Actually, this matter today has already had some clues. Ever since you, Yang, opened the garment factory and bought the big trucks, some villagers have complained that the rough road that has been driven over by the big trucks has deep tire marks on both sides, and it has become difficult to walk on, especially on rainy days, when water easily accumulates and people riding bicycles can easily fall."
"But at that time, it wasn't very serious."
"But since the beginning of this year, your garment factory has expanded and has a few more trucks. In addition, you sold a truck to your father-in-law. There is also the tea plantation on the back mountain. I don't know what's going on there. They want to grow tea, so where do they get all the soil to transport? They said they want to bring in fertilizer to improve the soil. They also said that the soil on the back mountain contains too many stones and needs to be transported away and replaced. Anyway, they let them do whatever they want. Now this road in the village is getting more and more dilapidated, and the villagers are complaining."
"I have thought about it, and even organized a meeting of the village committee. When the farming season is off, I will call on the villagers to fill in the potholes on the road. If conditions permit, I will buy a few truckloads of gravel to pave the road."
"But this is definitely a temporary solution, not a permanent one."
"But today I heard what your sixth brother said in the village. He said whoever destroyed the road should pay to repair it. He also said that if it is to be repaired, it must be a cement road or asphalt road. Otherwise, it will be crushed by trucks in a few days. He got the support of many villagers."
"I was just wondering, he doesn't have a grudge against you, right?"
"Then maybe they were targeting the group of people in the back mountain?"
"But now we can't stop him because of his big mouth. He is the initiator, but the ones causing the most trouble are the villagers who listened to him. Many of them have bicycles or carts at home. When they go to the market, they want to pull some bamboo baskets they made at home or some leftover vegetables to sell in the town for money. They all hope that this road can be improved. They have already made a fuss to the village committee."
The old village party secretary took a sip of tea.
Seeing that Lu Yang didn't say anything.
Obviously still waiting for his next move.
So he smiled and said, "Yang, you don't have to feel any psychological burden. I came here just to ask you whether you agree or not to build this road. Of course, you don't have to pay for it alone."
"If you agree, I will go up the mountain and ask the young people in the tea factory. Their cars drive along this road a lot, and they must want to make the road in the village better and not have to be as bumpy as it is now."
"I think it shouldn't be difficult to convince them. Of course, they may have to make sure that you, the big boss, will pay for it."
"When the time comes, we can sit down and discuss how much money should be spent and what roads should be built. Should we just do it perfunctorily or treat it as a long-term plan? There will be a plan by then anyway. There's no need to rush. What do you think, Yang?"
Of course Lu Yang wouldn't be in a hurry.
After the old village party secretary finished speaking, he said cheerfully: "I really can't be impatient, old village party secretary, you don't know, my money is tied up in this clothing, and I can't afford to repair this rough road into the village until the county opens a free wholesale market, sells this batch of clothing, and recovers the funds."
The old village secretary stood up suddenly and said anxiously: "What should we do? We can't drag on this road." Lu Yang went forward to support him.
He laughed and said, "Old village secretary, why are you so anxious? I haven't finished my words yet. This road construction is a long-term project, not something that can be done in a day or two. And there is less than half a month left before the opening of the county's free wholesale market."
"Old village secretary, just go ahead and talk with confidence. As long as those people on the mountain agree to pay, I, Lu Yang, will never be left behind. I will pay as much as they pay, and I guarantee not a penny less."
Speaking of it.
The impassioned speech is over.
Lu Yang changed his tone and said: "It's just that the money may arrive later, but it's okay. Road construction is not a one-time deal. We can use the money raised to build it first."
"For example, their money is used to repair the road from the tea mountain to my home. Once this section of the road is repaired, my money will be almost in my account. Then my money will be used to repair the road from my home to the village entrance and then directly to the national highway."
Lu Yang spread his hands and said, "Old village secretary, this is like dividing a project into two sections, one for the first half and one for the second half. Isn't this a perfect solution to the problem?"
The old village party secretary nodded as he listened, feeling that it made a lot of sense.
Although it sounds a bit wrong, I can't find any fault with it.
"Okay, I'll give it a try, and you wait for my news."
He is also a man of vigorous and decisive character.
After getting Lu Yang's assurance, he became impatient and prepared to go up the mountain before it got dark.
He glanced at his silly son beside him, who was still happily drinking tea with a little brown sugar in it.
I cursed inwardly for being useless.
Then he drank the tea in his teacup in one gulp.
"gone."
He put down the tea bowl, stood up and left.
After Yin Zhuangzhuang watched his father leave, he heaved a long sigh, put down his teacup, looked at Lu Yang and whispered: "This old man has his period, and he has been very dissatisfied with me recently. Brother Yang, you have to help me. He is ready to laugh at me. I must open the video hall and make a lot of money. When the time comes, I will bring the money back to honor him generously and see what he has to say."
Lu Yang laughed and scolded him, "You are so brave, why didn't you say it to your father just now?"
Yin Zhuangzhuang shrank his neck: "I dare not."
If you still know that you dare not, it means that you have not yet expanded to the level of thinking that you are the boss in the sky, the second in the earth, and yourself the third.
Lu Yang smiled and said, "When are you going to open the business?"
This time when I went to the city, I had originally planned to ask around to see if there were any second-hand color TVs for sale.
But first of all, I don’t have time.
All the time was spent on processing millions of orders for cotton spinning assets.
Lu Yang could still tell what was more important.
Another thing, of course, is that I have already asked Uncle Meng. Color televisions have only been popular in the entire Baoqing city for a few years. If you want to buy second-hand color TVs, there are some, but definitely not many. There is still hope if you ask around for one or two, but if you want to buy in bulk, it is basically hard to come by.
Lu Yang heard it at that time.
have to.
Now that you've said that, there's no need to waste time.
Never mind, a black and white TV is just a black and white TV. It’s bigger in size and has fewer problems if you buy a new one. Maybe you can earn more. Anyway, you have to replace it in a few years.
So I made my own decision.
With the help of Uncle Meng's relationship, I found a general agent of Panda brand televisions in the city. I spent 3900 yuan, 900 yuan of which I paid out of my own pocket, and bought ten brand new 21-inch black-and-white televisions.
The other party promised to deliver the goods to your door.
A few days ago, on the morning after he returned from the city, a truck loaded with ten brand new 21-inch Panda black-and-white TVs parked steadily in front of the video hall on Fanzhen Street that Yin Zhuangzhuang had rented and had just hung up a sign.
During the unloading process, the happy boy fell several times.
Yin Zhuangzhuang said a little embarrassedly: "I want to set the opening time in three days, because three days later is my birthday."
Lu Yang was stunned when he heard this.
I just remembered that this kid's birthday seems to be in three days.
"Okay, you actually have this hobby, so I have to help you. I'll do as you say. I'll tell Ping An to invite Zheng Suo and Wei Dui to come and show up on the opening day. And remember to order a table of food from the best restaurant in town and have it delivered to the store. Don't let them come and cut the ribbon and go back hungry. Just eat something in the store. I'll bring two bottles of good wine with me, so you don't lose face."
Yin Zhuangzhuang was overjoyed when he heard that, and agreed without hesitation: "Okay, I'll listen to you, Brother Yang. I'll ask my mother to help me for a day that day. Oh, and my sisters and brother-in-law, we can't let them sit idle. There will definitely be a lot of people on the opening day. It happens to be my birthday, so let them all come and help me for a day, and the waiters can go back that day."
Lu Yang gave a thumbs up: "Awesome! Good idea!!"
