"Hi, hello, who are you?"
A rough and determined voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Village Chief, it's me... I won't change..."
"Don't change?"
Village chief Xu Guojie obviously couldn't remember who Bu Huan was. After a moment of thinking, he finally remembered.
"No, you're a college student from the Jin family, right? You haven't been back to the village for a long time, and I'm going to have a few words with you. No matter how successful you young people are outside, you can't forget your roots. .Remember to come back to build your hometown and contribute to the development of your hometown..."
Xu Guojie's criticism and education of Jin Buhuan lasted for several minutes, and Jin Buhuan had no choice but to humbly accept the teaching on the other end of the phone.
Although the village chief is nagging, he is very kind-hearted. When Jin Buhuan was a child, the Jin family received a lot of help from him, so Jin Buhuan was still grateful to the village chief.
When Xu Guojie's mouth went dry, he stopped, and Jin Buhuan finally had the chance to speak.
"Village Chief, you taught me the right lesson, and I have taken it to heart. I want to know how much it will cost to build a cement road from our village to the town."
"It is of course good to build roads. With the roads built, our village's local products can be sold more easily. But the cost of building roads is very high, and the authorities have not provided us with subsidies, and our village's finances cannot support it... "
After Xu Guojie complained, he suddenly realized: "Are you asking about the cost of road construction? Do you want to sponsor road construction? If not, please tell me where you are now, and I will go over and discuss this matter with you!"
"I'm driving home, I'm almost there... Hey... Hey..."
Jin Buhuan was surprised to find that his cell phone suddenly became silent. After checking carefully, he found that the signal had also disappeared.
He sighed softly and said with emotion: "It seems that not only the roads in our village are in poor condition, but other infrastructure is also in urgent need of improvement!"
…
Dusk is approaching, but the heat in Xiangshan Village has not subsided. After a whole day of baking in the sun, the village is like a furnace. Villagers come in droves to cool off under the old locust trees and enjoy a moment of coolness.
"Er Mazi, didn't you go to the city some time ago? How was it?"
"Everywhere in the city is splendid, and the women in the city are all very beautiful, with slim figures, such faces, and figures... We came back dejected without any money in our pockets..."
Er Mazi couldn't help but swallow as he spoke.
"Look at how hopeless you are!"
"By the way, isn't Jin Buhuan also in Jiangnan City? Didn't you go find him? They are all from the same village. He will have to treat you well when you get there."
"I went to look for him at his place of work, but I didn't meet him."
"Doesn't he even see you? I've seen Jin Buhuan grow up since I was a kid. Has he really become so snobbish? After he moved to the city, he looked down on his relatives and friends in the countryside?"
"Uncle Wang, stop thinking about it. Jin Buhuan didn't avoid me. I went to find him. I was afraid that he would feel a little uncomfortable, so I was embarrassed to see him."
"Why is this?"
"I went to a pawn shop where I didn't change my job. Before I even entered the store, I saw an old master grabbing his ears and scolding him loudly."
"You also know that this person is very concerned about face. If we let him know that he has lost face in front of us, he will definitely get angry and fall out with the old master. I heard that it is difficult for college graduates in the city to find jobs now. , I didn’t want Bu Huan to lose his job, so I didn’t go in to see him.”
Everyone immediately understood and sighed again involuntarily.
"Buchan was one of the first college students in our village to go out. I once thought he would have a bright future. However, now it seems that his life outside does not go well."
"Uncle Wang, you don't know, there are so many college students in the city now, it's really not unusual."
"That's really hard for Sister Yang. She lives frugally on weekdays just to support Ayuan's education. She was sick and hospitalized some time ago. She didn't want to change her university. After graduating from university, her family thought they could live a good life, but who could Thinking about the current world, college students are no longer popular. It really makes people feel helpless and regretful."
…
While everyone was talking, they suddenly saw dust flying at the entrance of the village. They all looked over there, and a teenage boy said in surprise: "Grandpa Wang, what kind of car is this? It's noisier than your tractor!"
Er Mazi, who had gone out to the city and had seen the world, cursed: "Goudan, you are really a country bumpkin who has never seen the world! That is a luxury car worth millions, why is it called a tiger? Anyway, one can be exchanged for Uncle Wang." Dozens of tractors!”
Goudan looked at the car with an expression of disbelief, stuck out his tongue quickly, and then said in confusion: "The price of this car is so high!? How can people in our village afford such a luxury car?"
