The Pretty Military Wife

Chapter 480: Xinshui Village's Second Money Sharing Meeting

The next day, Liang Xinyue went to Xinshui Village again and discussed with Captain Liu again. They decided to build the laboratory in the valley between Xinshui Village and Daoliang Village.

It was a wasteland with a mountain behind it and the canal of Xinshui Village in front of it.

If the house is built there, it will face south and there is a lot of open space here, so two rows of dormitories for staff can be built.

The location for building the house has been determined. Now we just have to wait for the blueprints of the house and hire a construction team to build it.

Of course, the prerequisite is that the funds are in place.

In this case, Liang Xinyue would have to invite Professor Zhu and Director Ye to come and see the situation here before asking them for money.

So Liang Xinyue turned around and asked Captain Liu:

"Have you set a date? When will the money be divided?"

Captain Liu smiled and said:

"It's confirmed. The accountant will do the accounting on the 25th, and we can divide the money on the 26th. Didn't you say you would tell the provincial leaders? Then we can see who will come and confirm it."

Liang Xinyue nodded and said:

"Okay, you arrange the day's schedule, and I'll take care of the leaders' matters. Meals and other things need to be arranged, and then we'll have a meal together."

Captain Liu immediately smiled and said:

"Don't worry, we have arranged everything. We are going to slaughter three pigs in our production team. I also asked someone to buy four sheep. In this weather, it would be more comfortable to make some mutton soup."

Liang Xinyue smiled and said:

"Okay, there may be a lot of people coming. Director Ye said he would come, and Professor Zhu is coming, so the county leaders must also be invited. There may also be people from the city who heard the news and come."

Captain Liu nodded and said:

"Yeah, I know, we'll be ready."

After the date was confirmed, Liang Xinyue returned to the bureau in the afternoon and notified Professor Zhu and Director Ye first, and also notified Director Zhao of the county's secession committee and County Magistrate Chen.

They all said that they would bring people to take a look when the time comes.

There are still two days before the money is distributed in Xinshui Village. Liang Xinyue has been going to the countryside non-stop during these two days, but things are not going well.

Because both Daoliang Village and Shibalipo Village had started to clean up one after another, and the news of building greenhouses spread.

The villages and communes are not happy about it. We are also working hard to build the canal, so why aren't our village included?

So, for the next two days, Liang Xinyue was blocked by people every day:

"Deputy Director Liang, you can't just ignore our commune, go, go, go, go to each village in our commune today and show us how we can do it."

"That can't be the case. I came here first. Deputy Director Liang has to follow us today. We have already repaired half of the canal in our village."

"..."

People from all units wanted to bring Liang Xinyue to their commune so that they could have a taste of the benefits of Xinshui Village.

But Liang Xinyue is alone and cannot handle everything.

In the end, it was County Chief Chen who had to step in and tell everyone not to cause trouble for Liang Xinyue, because Liang Xinyue would go from village to village to investigate.

We promise to visit every village before the New Year.

Of course, this is also the reason why Liang Xinyue has been busier recently. If he doesn't visit all the villages before the New Year and understand the specific situation, he will not be able to determine where and how to plant.

So, in the end, we could only follow the route, one line at a time. When we arrived at each village, we had to carefully inquire about some things.

For this purpose, Liang Xinyue even specially set up a census form to record the human geography and various conditions of each village.

Liang Xinyue knew that the school had a printing press. They used wax paper, a steel plate, and a steel needle-like pen to carve the questions to be given to students on it. After carving the words on the wax paper, they took it to the ink printing press to print it. One person printed while another helped to flip it. In this way, they could print multiple copies.

Liang Xinyue also designed the form overnight. Fortunately, her handwriting was pretty good, so she planned to borrow some wax paper tomorrow night to carve it out and then print it out.

Tomorrow is the second money distribution day in Xinshui Village.

It has been more than two months since the last division. Now they have quite a bit of money in the village.

The next day, Liang Xinyue went to the Agricultural Bureau with County Mayor Chen and Director Ren from various counties. At around 9:30 in the morning, Director Ye and Professor Zhu and his party arrived.

They came in four cars this time, and Liang Xinyue only recognized Director Ye and Professor Zhu among the people who got out of the cars.

The first people to get out of the car were Director Ye, Professor Zhu, and an old man who was as tall and thin as Professor Zhu.

"Xinyue, I don't need to introduce Professor Zhu, right?"

Professor Zhu had come here with Director Ye before and had met Liang Xinyue before. He smiled and said:

"No need to introduce me, no need to introduce me, we are old acquaintances."

Liang Xinyue reached out to support Professor Zhu, and Xiao Wei also reached out to support Professor Zhu. It was said that the old professor's legs had been a little unsteady recently.

Director Ye also introduced:

"This is Comrade Hu Guang, the vice president of the Provincial Agricultural University."

County Magistrate Chen and others hurried over to shake hands. When they got to Liang Xinyue, Principal Hu smiled and said:

"You will be our university teacher in the future. I look forward to your coming to our school to give lectures."

Then Director Ye introduced the second person who got off the car. He was a man wearing a gray-blue Zhongshan suit, who looked to be in his forties or fifties, but his hair was a little gray.

"This is Comrade Qiao Shucheng, the Vice Governor."

County Magistrate Chen and Director Ren were both surprised. County Magistrate Chen hurriedly shook hands with Vice Governor Qiao:

"Hello, Vice Governor Qiao. I am Chen Weidong, the mayor of Xihuai County."

Director Ren also extended his hand and shook it:

"Hello, Vice Governor Qiao. I am Xiao Ren from the Xihuai County Agricultural Bureau."

Liang Xinyue also took a step forward:

"Hello, Vice Governor Qiao, I'm Liang Xinyue."

"Hahaha, I came here this time just to see your achievements."

In addition to Vice Governor Qiao, they also brought two officials from the Department of Agriculture, one official from the Provincial Finance Bureau, and one official from the Animal Husbandry Bureau.

There were actually two reporters getting off the last car, who said they were from a provincial newspaper.

After exchanging pleasantries, everyone decided to go to Xinshui Village first to see the process of holding a members' meeting, which had to wait until they arrived before it could begin.

So everyone got back in the car, and Liang Xinyue and the others got on the county bus, and a long convoy drove into Xinshui Village.

The people of Xinshui Village are now sitting happily in the storage room, waiting for the meeting to divide the money.

When it comes to dividing the money, everyone is very happy and thinks about having a good year.

But Captain Liu had been standing on the high ground and watching twice, but the money had not been distributed yet. When they asked, they heard that Deputy Director Liang and his men were coming to watch them divide the money, and the people's initial impatience was soon gone:

"It's okay to wait a moment. Comrade Liang's injury hasn't healed yet."

"Yes, yes, they have several children. It's okay. We can just wait for a while."

As everyone was expecting, a long line of cars drove over from afar. At first glance, they were all jeeps.

When cars of all sizes stopped on the Jigeng Road outside the storage room of Xinshui Village, they did not recognize any of the people who got out of the cars.

The people who got off the car behind were Director Ren and Liang Xinyue. The people were familiar with these people.

Liang Xinyue and Director Ren led the leaders into the meeting. They wanted to invite Vice Governor Qiao to sit on the rostrum, but he refused to go up. If he didn't go up, no one from the county or the province would go up.

"I don't need to go up. I'm just here to watch the fun and see how they divide the money in the meeting."

Liang Xinyue asked Ding Shiqing and the others to help arrange the stools, and then prepared to make tea for the leaders. And let Captain Liu start to distribute the money directly without the leader speaking. The leader came just to see how your money was distributed.

Captain Liu had no choice but to stand on the podium and speak into the simple loudspeaker:

"Everyone, please be quiet. Villagers of Xinshui Village, if you haven't come to the meeting yet, please hurry up. We are going to do something big today. Comrades, there are leaders coming to our village today. Let us welcome them first.

As he said this, he led the applause.

The villagers also applauded enthusiastically. County Magistrate Chen hurriedly asked:

"Vice Governor Qiao, why don't you say a few words to everyone?"

Vice Governor Qiao shook his head and said humorously:

"Look at them one by one. The eagerness in their eyes tells me that what they want most now is to share the money. We won't disrupt their rhythm. We will talk about it after they share the money."

Captain Liu looked over and seemed to be unsure whether the leaders wanted to say something. Liang Xinyue shook her head at him.

Captain Liu could only proceed according to the original plan. He first said a few words:

"All villagers, this year, under the leadership of the county party committee and the agricultural bureau, we have been following Deputy Director Liang to do greenhouse planting. Everyone can see the changes in our village. Two months ago, we distributed the money once. Today, we want to distribute the money from the sale of vegetables and some seedlings in the past two months to everyone. This is the income from everyone's hard work."

"I won't say much. Anyway, I have said what I should say. Everyone has listened. We in Xinshui Village are united in our determination to improve our planting industry. If we follow the organization, we will be able to embark on a path of happiness and prosperity."

"Next, we'll ask our accountant Shu to tell us about the income for the past two months and how to divide the money. Everyone, listen carefully and see if there are any differences from the work points you recorded yourself."

Accountant Shu went up to the stage, holding an account book in his hand:

"Dear leaders and comrades, the income of our village in the past two months is as follows. In the past two months, our total income from selling vegetables is .85 yuan. Our expenditure, that is, the money used by the village, has been 25 yuan as of the 2541.30th. It is mainly used to purchase new greenhouse racks and farm tools. In addition, some money was spent on this campaign. The money used for the campaign will be settled after the campaign ends, when we divide the money before the New Year."

"Except for the $5000 we have to keep as an emergency fund, the total amount we can share is $55. Here's how we divide the money."

"First, we will distribute money based on the number of people in the village, regardless of age. This includes the three educated youth from our village, several comrades who came to our village to study with us, and students from the Agricultural University who came to our place for internship. As long as they have participated in our labor, they will receive this per capita money. However, for those who have participated in our labor for less than two months, we will convert it based on the time. The other part is based on the work points we have recorded. Everyone has their own signature on the work point record, so everyone can roughly calculate how many points they have made. For this part, we distribute it according to work."

While Accountant Shu was speaking, Captain Liu, Ding Shiqing, Liu Qianjin and others helped put the money on the table. Looking at the mountains of money on the tables on both sides of the rostrum, Vice Governor Qiao was a little surprised.

And then Accountant Shu said:

"Next, we will divide the money. I will call out a name. You are from Team 1. Come over here to Captain Liu Qianjin to collect your money. Sign for the money and count it in front of me."

"Comrades from Team 2, please come here and get your money and sign with the team leader. Educated youth and college students, please get your money from Comrade Ding Shiqing. I will call out your name next. When I call out your name, you should come and get it quickly, one by one."

"Liu Chenglong, there are four people in your family, so the per capita pay is 478 yuan. You, your wife, and your eldest son have a total of 130 work points, so you should get 638.9 yuan. Therefore, your family will receive a total of 1,116.9 yuan."

"Liu Chengshuang, your family..."

Deputy Governor Qiao, who was standing aside and listening, was stunned. He turned around and looked at County Magistrate Chen and Director Ren. They didn't seem shocked, but he was.

To put it bluntly, the money that the family just heard received was much more than his two-month income. And from what I heard, some of the families behind him received even more.

Liang Xinyue raised her eyebrows, but still whispered to the leaders:

"They seem to get a lot of money, but they have to use it to buy food. Because we have occupied the land, the land is used to grow suitable things, not food."

All the people who came to the money-sharing meeting were stunned when they heard the figures read out by the accountant. They didn't expect that the income of this village is so high now.

After listening to a passage, Vice Governor Qiao laughed and said:

"If all the villages in our province can reach this level, then no one will go hungry."

"It will definitely be realized. We must also realize the Four Modernizations."

The villagers were also very happy. Deputy Governor Qiao was very satisfied. He turned to an old woman standing on the side and said:

"Old man, how much did your family get? Is it enough? Are you able to eat well now?"

The old man laughed and said:

"Leader, we are fine now. Our family has not been divided. We have a large number of people and have received more than 4,000 yuan. We are now well fed. Then..."

As he spoke, he turned to look for Liang Xinyue, then pointed at Liang Xinyue and said to Vice Governor Qiao:

"Our comrade Liang worked hard with us every day so that we could have enough food to eat and helped our village become rich. Comrade Liang said that getting rich through hard work is the most glorious."
