1983 Small Island, Starting From a Large Farmer

Chapter 419: What Is Worrying Is Not the Scarcity but the Inequality (1/2)

Chapter 419: Worry not about scarcity but about inequality

Li Duoyu directly picked the key points and briefly repeated what was said at the meeting.

After the lecture, I directly showed everyone the documents and materials brought back from the meeting.

Fortunately, most of the people who came to the meeting were literate, and there were even two who spoke Maozi very fluently.

Wang Dapao and Wang Xianghong, both of them have received training in Mao Ziyu.

Except for the older ones, for example, when his daughter wrote to him or his son published a letter in the newspaper, he still had to have someone read it to him before he knew what the content was.

Just as they were looking at the document, one of the captains frowned and said, "Duoyu, is the size of this big windmill written wrong? How can it be forty meters high?"

"Forty meters, it's as high as a fifteen-story building."

"The tallest building in our Rongcheng seems to be only fourteen floors."

Li Duoyu replied:

"Yes, this big windmill is forty meters high."

After hearing Li Duoyu's answer, everyone took a sharp breath. Lao Lu, who had a fishing boat, asked immediately:

Seeing Wang Xianghong's excitement, Li Duoyu smiled and said: "Comrade Xianghong, don't get excited yet. The submarine cable will have to wait until the wind turbine is built, which will probably happen next year."

The reason why the villagers at the dock are richer than other villagers is simply that they receive the dividends from the dock.

When Lao Lu asked this, he really asked Li Duoyu. To be honest, he really didn't know what to do.

Shi Yunshan from the ninth team also raised his hand and said: "The ninth team also supports it. My family can directly provide three laborers."

No leader came to him to ask what their village should do or how many strong men should be brought out to help.

They made the caves on the island and various "security settings". When they started to open roads and blow up mountains, they usually asked for their help.

However, I hope that each team in our village will have at least ten people, a combination of eight men and two women. When the time comes, as long as the organization needs us, we can immediately take over. "

"How can such a big thing be moved to our island? Can our small dock be able to unload it?"

"The second team also supports it."

When he thought of this, Lao Lu instantly became attentive: "Duoyu, just tell me directly, what do you want us to do after the project starts?"

Everyone who came to the meeting was very excited when they learned that they were going to build large windmills and submarine cables.

Li Duoyu said seriously: "

If the new wharf was willing to build a house, he planned to grab a foundation there first.

However, due to the lack of electricity, there are very few televisions, refrigerators, and washing machines. There are only a few in the whole village.

"This is why I'm meeting with everyone. This thing definitely can't be transported from our dock. The organization plans to build a new deep-water port at the northeast corner of Dandan Island, where Beilan leads."

"Damn, there's a submarine cable coming." Wang Xianghong couldn't help but get excited again after hearing this: "After the submarine cable comes, then our island's electricity supply will not be a problem in the future."

The overall person in charge of the entire project is the Provincial Science and Technology Commission, and the person in charge of construction is the Construction Bureau. The meeting lasted until the end.

If they also participate in this project, just transfer one or two to come over, there really won't necessarily be a shortage of people.

"That's definitely impossible. The big ship where Director Li sold eels last time didn't even dare to get close to it, let alone the ship that transported such large items."

"Ah, you want to build a new pier?"

“The project started construction officially half a month later. This time I went to a meeting, but the organization didn’t make it clear which work we were going to do.

Li Duoyu smiled and said:

"Let me tell you simply that for these four wind turbines, not only will a new pier be built, but submarine cables will also be laid directly to our island."

Moreover, Li Duoyu discovered that at that meeting, there was a "leader" wearing a green uniform and hat. He was responsible for the security of coastal waters, and the militia company in the village was also under their control.

The organization does not require you to work, but if you feel that you don't have to work, you will probably be hated by others.

Later, the production brigade was disbanded, and most of the small fishing boats were given to them. Those at Banyao and the end of the village were all given some sandy land for growing sweet potatoes and corn.

Moreover, Beilanling has an excellent geographical location, right in the middle of Xiasha Village and Chenjia Village.

Li Duoyu nodded.

Zhang Jinsha, who was sitting aside, wiped his face and said disgustedly: "Comrade Xiang Hong, can you be more careful? Your saliva is all sprayed on my face."

Although Beilanling is three or four kilometers away from Xiasha Village, if we really want to build a deep-water terminal, the future development will definitely be very good.

Some people are discussing what electrical appliances to buy, but others smell opportunities.

Almost all of the richest people on Dandan Island are concentrated near the pier.

Some people are even planning to buy a TV set. Xiasha Village is relatively wealthy, with nearly ten thousand households in the village.

Zhang Erhu said on the spot:

"That must be the top. If someone comes to our island to help us build a windmill, if we don't help, we will be looked down upon if this is said out. I don't know what the situation is with other teams. Anyway, our militia company Unconditional support.”

It can be said that as long as your family lives here at the dock and you are not particularly lazy, you can still make money.

Village cadre Zhang Jinsha opened his mouth.

Because of the proximity to the wharf, many of them also became fishmongers. It can be said that the profitable business of the entire Dandan Island is concentrated here at the wharf.

At the meeting in Rongcheng, not only him, but also Secretary Chen and Mayor Gao could hardly get a word in.

When the fishery team was still there, they were assigned to fish because they lived at the wharf.

Wang Xianghong hurriedly said: "You don't understand how much money it will cost to lay submarine cables to our island. This is a big project."

Lao Lu felt that if the new wharf was really built, maybe a new village would appear there.

"."

Seeing that everyone raised their hands in support, Li Duoyu said on the spot: "Thank you for your support, then let's do it this way first. Let's mobilize everyone in the next few days and try to draw up a list for me in the next two days."

"Okay, then we."

Just when Li Duoyu was about to adjourn the meeting, village cadre Zhang Jinsha suddenly asked:

"Duoyu, wait, I have a question. After our electricity is built, Chenjia Village will definitely use it."

"Yeah."

Li Duoyu nodded.

Although the organization did not say it explicitly, Beilanling is right between the two villages, so there is no reason not to give them electricity.

Zhang Jinsha said: "If they also need electricity, we can't be the only ones to provide people, they have to provide some people."

When Zhang Jinsha said this, some village cadres and team leaders immediately agreed:

"Yes, I also think Jinsha is right."

"It is us who can't work. When the time comes, their village will sit back and enjoy the fruits of their labor. It's disgusting to think about it."

"They must provide as many people as we provide, otherwise, they will not be given electricity."

"Yes, this project was obtained by our village. They didn't contribute much, so they should be asked to do more work."

Li Duoyu glanced at everyone and felt that they were right. He really ignored Chenjia Village.

Logically speaking, this wind power generation project is a matter for the entire island. Even if there is really no shortage of people at that time, or not many villagers are needed to help, Chenjia Village must have an attitude.

You can't do nothing and get benefits in the end. If so, the people working in Xiasha Village will have opinions.

Maybe it will cause conflict between the two villages. During his time as the village director, Li Duoyu also dealt with many disputes.

In the face of interests, human nature is very fragile. Zhou Xiaoying once told him a famous saying: It is not the lack of wealth that is worrying, but the inequality.

Many brothers have a very good relationship before they split up, but once they split up, they start to care about everything, just like the Zhao brothers counted every brick and tile clearly. Li Duoyu touched his chin and thought for a while.

"Jinsha, I also think what you said makes sense. Then let's do this. I'll trouble you with this matter. You go to connect with Chenjia Village."

"Oh."

Seeing that Li Duoyu asked him to be responsible for this matter, Zhang Jinsha was stunned for a moment. If he had known that this matter would fall on him, he would not have said this.

Chenjia Village has a serious clan concept. The chairman of their village clan hall council is the village director, who is a very old antique.

He has no ability, but he likes to show off. What he hates most is that every time he encounters something, those old men don't like to make their own decisions.

Either burn incense and ask the ancestors.

Or they could worship Mazu and decide by throwing the dice.

Even now, the people of Xiasha Village are not very willing to have too much contact with the people of Chenjia Village.

Zhang Jinsha frowned and said:

"Director Li, I think you have to do this. They still owe you a favor. It will be easier to handle if you go."

Old Li, who had not said much during the whole process, suddenly said: "I also think that Jinsha probably can't handle this matter. The people of Chenjia Village also like to save face. It's better for you to come forward."

Li Duoyu sighed.

Since his father said so, he probably has to go there. To be honest, he really doesn't want to go to Chenjia Village because he is afraid of being asked to borrow money.

But what everyone didn't expect was that Wang Dapao, who had been sitting aside and had hardly spoken, suddenly said:

"If Director Li is not free, I can go with Jinsha. I have held several meetings with Chairman Chen of their village and we are quite familiar with each other."

When Wang Dapao said this, everyone was stunned. They didn't expect that after not seeing each other for a while, Secretary Wang became more fluent in speaking.

Li Duoyu hurriedly said:

"If Secretary Wang comes, that would be the best. Then I will trouble Secretary Wang and Comrade Zhang Jinsha."

After Li Duoyu finished speaking, he looked at his watch.

"Okay, it's getting late. Let's adjourn the meeting. Let's go back for dinner. Remember to give me the list two days later."

When everyone had almost left,

Wang Dapao, who was leaning on a cane, called Zhang Jinsha and couldn't help asking, "Jinsha, I have a question for you. Was this project approved by Director Li?"

Zhang Jinsha frowned and thought for a while:

"I'm not sure, but it must be related to Director Li."

"Director Li is really a talent. He has only been the village director for two years, and our village has really changed a lot."

Zhang Jinsha glanced at Wang Dapao and remembered that he had worked with him for more than ten years without realizing it.

When Wang Dapao first became the team leader, he was still quite young, but now he is an old man with white hair.

Zhang Jinsha said lightly:

"Team leader, when you first took office, you were not bad either. Our village has won the first place in the town for several consecutive years."

When Wang Dapao heard this, he fell silent and sighed heavily.

Li Duoyu returned home and found that Little Fatty had not taken off his schoolbag and the red scarf was still tied around his neck. He was whipping a top with a rope in the courtyard. Every time he whipped the top, the top that was about to fall would start spinning again.

Zhang Lin, Zhang Yun, and Xiao Tutu stood aside and watched carefully.

Zhang Lin, who was looking more and more like a tomboy, asked: "Brother, you have been playing for a long time, can you play with me instead?"

Little Tutu kept staring at the top with his round eyes. Several times, he wanted to rush over and grab the top, but fortunately, he was stopped by Zhang Yun.

Li Haoran said with an air of dignity: "It's very difficult to play top. Do you know how to do it?"

"I'll know after I try it."

Li Haoran gave Zhang Lin the whip tied with a rope: "Then give it a try."

After Zhang Lin got the whip and the top, she didn't know how to make the top spin.

Li Haoran said proudly: "I told you that you don't know how to play a top, but if you still don't believe me, just watch and I will teach you again.

Isn't there a waist in the middle of the top? First put the thread in, then wrap it around a few times, hold the top and stick in your right hand, and then quickly throw it out. "

After Li Haoran finished speaking, the top flew out quickly and started spinning on the ground in the courtyard.

Seeing the top spinning again, little Tutu laughed sharply, looking very happy.

Li Haoran continued: "When you are about to fall, hit it quickly, and hit it diagonally, not the bottom of the top, but let the rope hang to the waist of the top."

Seeing the top spinning faster and faster, Zhang Lin said excitedly: "Brother, give me the whip first."

"You have to draw it carefully. If the top falls over, I will draw it next time."

While they were playing, Chen Huiying, who was busy in the kitchen, said: "When you play, pay attention to Little Tutu. If you catch him, I will confiscate your top."

"Got it, Grandma."

"Zhang Yun is holding on to little Tutu, but he can't be beaten."

A group of children were playing with tops so seriously that they didn't even notice he was back.

Seeing them playing tops, Li Duoyu suddenly remembered that when he was a child, he also had a top that looked just like this one.

I guess Li Haoran also made this spinning top for you.

The difference is that when Li Duoyu played with tops when he was a child, Zhou Xiaoying also wanted to play, but when he was a child, he was like a stingy bag and wouldn't let Zhou Xiaoying touch it.

She was so angry that she didn't want to talk to him for a month or two. Thinking about it, she was really ashamed.

Li Duoyu still doubts whether Xiaoying is used to being bullied by him, so she married him.

Speaking of this.

Li Duoyu really wanted to ask Zhou Xiaoying why he wanted to marry him when there were so many people chasing him and even though he had such a good opportunity.

Just when Li Duoyu was thinking about something, little Tutu spotted him first and ran over: "Dad, hug him."

Li Duoyu picked up little Tutu and gently touched his little face twice with his beard, making him laugh.

After seeing Li Duoyu, Xiao Pang Dun smiled flatteringly and said, "Uncle, you are back."

Li Duoyu asked casually: "Your aunt hasn't come back yet."

"Not yet. There are a lot of things at school recently, and Auntie usually doesn't get home until after six o'clock."

"That's it."

When Zhang Lin and Zhang Yun saw Li Duoyu, they wanted to call out, "Hello, uncle," but they held it back. They were so nervous that they even forgot to pull the top.

Little Fatty also became very nervous and said hello to the person behind Li Duoyu: "Hello, principal~~"

"Haoran, I haven't put down my schoolbag yet, and I'm already playing with a top."

"Go and put it right away."

When the principal said this, Li Haoran immediately returned to the room and took off his schoolbag, and then did not dare to come out.

Li Duoyu, who heard the sound, turned around and found a middle-aged man walking up the slope carrying two bags of things.

"Principal Zhu, why are you here?"
