1983 Small Island, Starting From a Large Farmer

271. Chapter 271 A Quarrel Broke Out over the Location of the Public Toilet

In front of everyone, Gao Jing from the Shangfeng Town Credit Union wrote on the collective fund passbook of Xiasha Village with a fountain pen.

¥5000 (deposit)

At the same time, he took out his own seal and stamped it on the account.

After stamping, he handed the passbook to Director Zhang, who took out two seals, one of which was his own and the other was the seal of the credit union, and stamped the two seals on the verification column.

Then, he pushed the passbook in front of Li Duoyu: "Director Li, the money has been transferred to you."

"Thank you Director Zhang, it's really troublesome for you to ask you and Comrade Gao Jing to make a special trip."

"We are all colleagues, it should be done, there is no trouble."

Li Duoyu looked at the watch on his left wrist and said to the town leaders: "It's almost noon, why don't we have a quick meal together."

Gao Tianyun shook his head: "You kid, if you really want to treat us to a meal, you won't ask like this."

"Mayor Gao, you are prejudiced against me now, I really want to treat you to a good meal, the seafood in our village is still good."

Secretary Chen stood up and picked up the shoulder bag he carried with him: "Let's eat together next time. There is a meeting in the city in the afternoon, and we have to rush there. Let's go first."

"I really don't want to have a meal together."

"Next time."

"Then let's see the leaders off."

At the dock, Li Duoyu and his group watched Secretary Chen and Mayor Gao leave the island.

Zhang Jinsha and Tang Ping took the village collective fund passbook from Li Yaoguo, and looked at the 5,000 yuan written in small letters on it, and couldn't help but sigh.

"Fuck, our village committee account finally has money, and we are no longer paupers."

A month ago, when the village committee was the poorest, it only had 80 yuan left and could not do anything.

The two villages reconciled, but they couldn't even afford to hire a troupe of actors. It was Li Duoyu who got 1,500 yuan in sponsorship from Xinyuan Company.

After the village cadres returned to the village committee, Li Duoyu asked his second brother: "How much money does our village committee have now?"

Li Yaoguo took out the account book and read:

"After helping the elderly in the village to make quilts, there is 87 yuan left,

Xinyuan Aquatic Products Company sponsored 1,500 yuan,

Give a plaque to Xiasha Village 100 yuan,

Inviting the opera troupe cost a total of 800 yuan,

Miscellaneous expenses for activities in the two villages 157 yuan,

Stall fees income 50 yuan,

Adding the 5,000 yuan allocated today,

The village collective funds currently have a total of 5,580 yuan."

After hearing about this amount of money, Zhang Jinsha couldn't help but say to Li Duoyu: "Fortunately, I didn't beat you in the election."

Tang Ping on the side said disdainfully:

"Don't you see how bad the votes were that day, what can you win with."

Zhang Jinsha smiled awkwardly.

Mao Shuyun, who was in charge of broadcasting, said with emotion: "After being a cadre for so many years, this is the first time I feel that we are truly serving the people."

Old Liao sighed: "Alas, if it was Wang Dapao, the money might have arrived, but everyone would still be kept in the dark. He might even deceive our villagers into contributing to the construction of public toilets."

Li Yaoguo sighed: "That's for sure. I was a village accountant for so many years, and I have only seen the brigade seal a few times."

Seeing that everyone was here today, Li Duoyu said: "Now that we have the money, let's assign the work first."

Li Duoyu originally planned to choose the most difficult bone to chew, that is, the construction of public toilets in the village.

But he didn't expect that Zhang Jinsha and Tang Ping would be like chicken blood today.

"Duoyu, let us build the toilets. We promise to do it properly for you."

Li Duoyu smiled and reminded: "It is still a bit difficult to build a public toilet. The villagers may not agree. If you two are sure to do this job, I will trouble you if you can't complete it."

Zhang Jinsha smiled and said: "It will definitely be completed. I want to see which bastard in our village dares to oppose such a good thing."

"Okay, I'll leave it to you first. Our village will build a total of four public toilets, one at the wharf, the center of the village, the end of the village, and the middle of the village. The cost of each toilet is controlled within 700 yuan."

"Okay, we understand."

Li Duoyu looked at Lao Liao and Uncle Mao and said: "The cleaning of the stinky ditches in the village will be handed over to you two."

Uncle Mao and Lao Liao nodded.

"Captain Zhang, you are still responsible for the safety of our village. In addition, the dock repair is handed over to you."

Li Duoyu looked at the women's director Liu Xiuzhu: "Director Liu, you women are more careful in hygiene. Can I trouble you to kill flies, fleas and lice?"

The women's director, who rarely speaks and always has a cold face, nodded: "Okay, I'll take care of this."

In fact, Li Duoyu is quite afraid of this woman. Liu Xiuzhu is in charge of family planning. From a certain perspective, her power in the village is greater than his.

Now all women in the village who have a second child will be forcibly taken away by her for sterilization surgery, and they have to be checked four times a year. If they work outside for more than one month, they have to be checked as soon as they return to the island.

Last month, the wife of Lao Liu secretly got pregnant with her third child and ran to her parents' home. As a result, she was found out and led a team to tear off the roof of the house and issued a sky-high fine.

To be honest, those who want to have more children in the village are all very afraid of this woman.

Without Wang Dapao, the troublemaker, Li Duoyu quickly arranged the work. He was responsible for the garbage station and garbage dump in Xiasha Village, which was not an easy task.

In this era, there was a small garbage dump at the door of every household, where villagers usually dumped their garbage.

When the garbage was piled to a certain extent, they would be ignited and then smoldered for a period of time, so that it could be burned into fire soil for growing vegetables.

Because Dandan Island was full of seafood, the most common garbage dumps in these small garbage dumps were shells, seafood viscera, etc., which not only stank, but also fed a lot of flies.

Li Duoyu was too lazy to think about it and just followed the practice of the village committee in his previous life.

For every twenty households, a large garbage dump was built for them, and at the same time, the village committee set up a garbage disposal team to transport these domestic garbage to a unified location for burning or burial.

And on the second day after the work was assigned, Zhang Jinsha and Tang Ping, who had vowed yesterday, came to the village committee and kept complaining and cursing.

"Fuck, Lao Zeng, that bastard, actually dared to take out a knife. What do you mean the public toilet is too smelly and is not allowed to be built?"

"Damn it, the pit next to your house didn't stink originally, this troublemaker obviously wants to make trouble."

Tang Ping also looked helpless. Yesterday, he also went to the center of the village to talk to the nearby villagers. The situation was the same as Zhang Jinsha's.

What they said was that the public toilet was too close to their vegetable fields, there would be a lot of flies, and the vegetables they planted in the future would not be edible. Another fish drying shop thought that there were too many flies and the dried fish would easily grow worms, so they refused to build a public toilet next to their house.

Zhang Jinsha couldn't help but scold: "It's obviously to provide services and benefits to everyone, why don't these people understand the overall situation."

Listening to the two people complaining non-stop.

Li Duoyu couldn't help but smile. As a person who has lived two lives, he has long been accustomed to such things.

In his previous life, there was a village road that was built to the doorstep of a farmer's house, and he took a hoe and fought with everyone to stop the repair.

I can only say that when it comes to matters related to interests, who cares about the overall situation?

Li Duoyu joked: "Why don't we compensate each household around the public toilet and see if they are willing."

Zhang Jinsha said with a dark face: "How can such a good thing happen? We build toilets for them for free and give them money. They really treat us as living Buddhas."

Tang Ping also said indignantly: "Duoyu, let's persuade them again. If it doesn't work, let's discuss countermeasures."

"Okay, you can try again."

However, another day later, when Li Duoyu saw Zhang Jinsha again, there were two more scratches on his face.

"What happened to you?"

Zhang Jinsha gritted her teeth: "I was scratched by the nails of a tigress. If it weren't for this village cadre, I really want to give her a big bag. The unruly people are really a group of unruly people."

Tang Ping said a little embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, Duoyu, I'm afraid the two of us can't handle this matter."

"Let me do it."

Li Duoyu had already guessed that if they could handle it well, it would be abnormal.

Li Duoyu used the village loudspeaker to broadcast: "Good morning, fellow villagers. I am Li Duoyu, the village director.

In order to build a better environment for everyone, our village committee decided to build a public toilet. However, the public toilet has a smell, which will definitely affect the nearby villagers.

So, all our village cadres decided that every household within 20 meters of the public toilet will be compensated 20 yuan. If there are villagers willing to provide land to build a public toilet, the village committee will directly buy the land. If there are willing villagers, they can come to the village committee."

What Zhang Jinsha and Tang Ping didn't expect was that Li Duoyu had just broadcast for a while, and immediately some villagers ran to the village committee.

"Village director, the public toilet can be built next to my house, so that I can go to the toilet conveniently."

"Build it near our house."

"Lao Zeng, didn't you say the toilet was smelly? Why are you rushing to build it near your house now?"

"It's none of your business. I think the public toilet is good now."

Zhang Jinsha and Tang Ping looked at these villagers scrambling for the first place, and their mouths twitched. They cursed: "Damn, these people are too realistic."

After seeing these villagers, Li Duoyu smiled and said: "Don't worry, come one by one, I will register slowly, and then I will choose the most suitable place to build a public toilet."

After a day of registration, Li Duoyu drew red circles and squares on a simple map of the village.

The red circles represent the villagers who are willing to build the public toilet near their homes.

The squares are the villagers who are willing to provide land. Li Duoyu looked at the map and finally selected four public toilets.

Zhang Jinsha and Tang Pingyuan thought that according to Li Duoyu's approach, they would have to compensate the villagers with a lot of money, but what they didn't expect was that the four points selected by Li Duoyu only needed to be compensated to the villagers for 300 yuan.

Some villagers even quarreled with other villagers because the toilet was not built near their homes.

This completely different situation made Zhang Jinsha and Tang Ping smile bitterly, and they couldn't help but look at the smiling Li Duoyu.

"This guy is a monster." (End of this chapter)
