After having lunch with Xu Zhen's family, Li Xiucheng went out with his bodyguard and didn't return home until after four in the afternoon.
Xu Changxiu was playing with Duoduo in the yard. When she saw the car stop, Li Xiucheng and his bodyguard got out of the car, then brought down several large bags of ingredients and hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Why did you buy so much? I can't fit it in the refrigerator at home. "
"It's okay. There will be a lot of people tomorrow. Just cook two more tables of food and it will be solved."
"Who will come tomorrow?" Xu Changxiu was stunned.
"I've invited some guests. I will be in charge of a meal tomorrow at noon. There will probably be two or three tables." Li Xiucheng smiled and handed a big apple to Duoduo who ran over, and then said with a smile: "Let Aunt He come to help at noon. .”
When she heard that it was her son's invitation, Xu Changxiu naturally did not dare to delay: "I told Aunt He at noon that we would come over to eat together in the past few days, and she agreed."
Li Xiucheng smiled and said, "Auntie is passionate."
"She is quite lonely by herself, so come here and have some fun." After saying that, Xu Changxiu looked at Duoduo who was chewing an apple with a smile and said: "In the afternoon, she specially made red bean cakes for Duoduo to eat, and Duoduo liked it.
Right, Duoduo? "
"Well, Grandma He's bean cakes are delicious and sweet." Duoduo took a bite of the apple and nodded seriously.
"You little greedy cat!" Li Xiucheng leaned over slightly and tapped his forehead. His eyes were full of endearment. After speaking, he suddenly raised his head and said, "By the way, where is my dad?"
"Inside the house."
"Oh, I'll go find him and tell him something."
When Li Xiucheng entered the room, he saw his father sitting on the sofa holding a dictionary, squinting at it and mumbling something, looking extremely serious.
He had long heard his mother say that his father was now beginning to read. He still didn't believe it, but now it seemed that this was really the case.
He stood in front of him and said, "Dad, your efficiency is a bit inefficient. How about I hire a teacher for you?"
Being looked at by Li Xiucheng, Li Jingfu felt a little embarrassed. He pressed the dictionary to his chest and muttered, "I'll just look through it and ask for a teacher."
"Okay, I misunderstood." Li Xiucheng smiled narrowly, and said when his father had a serious face: "Let me go to the township government first, and I will study when I come back."
"What are you doing in Xiangzheng Mansion?" Li Jingfu was stunned.
"Ask me something."
"You kid are still keeping secrets from me?" Li Jingfu said dissatisfied, but still stood up and walked out.
Li Xiucheng followed up with a smile: "No, let's talk about it after we get in the car."
.....
"What? You want to build a road?"
In the office building of the Xiangzheng Mansion, Mayor Wang was called back with a look of surprise and surprise.
These two men are celebrities in the village. How could he, the head of the township, not know them? This afternoon I heard someone say that Li Xiucheng was back. I didn't expect that they would come to their door and bring such a big surprise.
"Yes! Ordinary rural cement roads." Li Xiucheng smiled and nodded: "I have already gone to the county to talk about this in the afternoon. The county leaders and engineering staff will come to measure it tomorrow. The specific kilometers will be available tomorrow.
I came here to ask about the land situation in the township. The road I expected was to be the shortest straight line from the village to the main street, and then from the main street to the national highway.
Therefore, Dawan roads such as those in Zhangwanli need to be straightened, which requires at least some land.
In addition, I also hope that the township will ask for some policies from the county to build the road more perfectly. "
After hearing this, Mayor Wang was so excited that his eyes lit up.
These days, the government is so poor that even the county can't take care of you, so how can it care about your subordinates.
Except for the national highway and the main street, which is the section at the stone factory, the best roads in the countryside are dirt roads. When it rains and is visited by tractors, there are deep pits one after another.
On a sunny day, there is a thick layer of dust that can reach your ankles if you step on it. Now some people are taking the initiative to pay for road construction, which is a good thing that I could never even dream of.
"Xiucheng, you've done a good job of not forgetting your hometown even after you've become rich! Our township will definitely cooperate with us in this matter."
After praising him, Chief Wang called to his subordinates at the door: "Xiao Li, go find someone right away."
Xiao Li was stunned for a moment and said with a wry smile: "Head of the township, everyone is off work at this time. It's hard to find him."
"It's hard to find, but you have to find it!" Wang Xiangchang said categorically: "This is a big matter. Find the relevant personnel and we will discuss a strategy overnight. In this way, when people from the county come tomorrow, we can do a better job." Only by working together can the road be repaired.”
"Yes!" Mayor Wang said solemnly. Now Xiao Li didn't dare to be hasty anymore, turned around and ran to find someone.
Naturally, Li Xiucheng would not wait for these people to arrive before leaving. The purpose of his coming had been achieved, so he could just leave the rest of the trivial matters to these people.
After communicating with Township Chief Wang again and agreeing on a meeting time tomorrow, he stood up and left.
When they got outside, it was getting dark, and the two got in the car.
Li Jingfu couldn't help but said: "Xiucheng, it costs seven to eight hundred thousand to build the road. It's not worth it."
After hearing about Li Xiucheng's plan after going out, he kept struggling in his heart. He didn't say much all the way, but now he couldn't help it anymore.
Seeing the pain on his face, Li Xiucheng smiled and said: "Dad, the purpose of making money is to improve your social status. Only by improving your status can you get better resources. This is a virtuous circle.
Of course, another thing is that I have money!
I would be happy if I could spend money to give you more face in the village. "
Li Jingfu laughed when he heard this sentence, and his eyes suddenly felt a little itchy. Not being good at expressing does not mean that he is not emotionally rich, but reality has made him develop the habit of suppressing himself.
These heart-warming words made him break his guard.
There was no words for a night, and the roar of cars broke the tranquility of the countryside the next morning.
Then people discovered that another convoy was coming.
"These cars are not as good-looking as yesterday!" Pedestrians who got up early looked at the dusty Jeep and commented with a sense of superiority.
"Nonsense, that kid's imported car is owned by an old man from the county. How can it be compared?" a knowledgeable person shouted.
"You said this is a county car?"
"Yes, I have seen the county official's car many times before in the county."
"What are you doing here in the county? Three cars together! Isn't it because something big happened in the countryside?"
"Who can say for sure about official affairs?"
"I know, I know." Someone shouted triumphantly. After attracting many people's attention, he immediately said triumphantly: "My seventh aunt's son-in-law told me that there was a meeting held all night in the countryside last night, saying that they wanted to build roads. Got it!"
"What? Real or fake?"
Road construction is a major event, affecting the whole township, and everyone's spirits were instantly lifted.
"Tell me quickly, how to practice it specifically!"
"This is what happened. Yesterday afternoon, the richest man in our township found Mayor Wang..."
This well-informed passerby told everyone exactly what he heard, and what he said was roughly the same as the truth.
After arousing exclamation from the general manager, the news flew to every corner of the countryside like it had wings.
