Dreaming of Lion Rock: Recipe in Hand

Chapter 337 Start of Construction

Chunni felt that she was even more miserable than Sun Wukong, who could ascend to heaven and become a Buddha after going through 81 trials and tribulations! But she, after going through countless trials and tribulations, was not allowed to rest and had to continue climbing mountains and crossing ridges to build roads.

That’s right, after living in Chunni’s house for a week and gaining two or three pounds, the little Taoist priest finally calculated an auspicious day to start work.

The county road from Lion Rock to the county seat is finally going to start construction!

On the first day of work, the young Taoist priest caught a beautiful rooster from Chunni's house and sprinkled a drop of rooster's comb blood on the road where work started.

The little rooster almost died young, and little Chuchu was so heartbroken that she kept asking her grandpa to cook some brown sugar water for the rooster to nourish it.

Old Master Chu was so annoyed that he reluctantly took out his private stash of red dates and gave them to the rooster as a tonic.

As for Chunni, it’s the first day of road construction, so she must go to work, cough cough cough, as a supervisor.

At this time, the rice on Lion Mountain has been stored in the warehouse, and the sweet potatoes have been put into the cellar. The only work left to do before the New Year is to harvest peanuts and plant wheat.

Harvesting peanuts is the most favorite farm work for children. Therefore, women and children in the family can harvest peanuts and bring them home.

As for planting wheat, that is even later. It will take another month or two to start sowing!

Therefore, men of all ages in Lion Rock carried hoes and shoulder poles to the road construction site to contribute to the new road.

Xue Shaohong, who had just returned to the village, was so moved that she cried, "Repairing the road is such a tiring job, but there are people who do it, and they don't charge for it! Wuuuuuuu... I have never seen anything like this. Wuuuuuuu... I am so moved! Wuuuuuuu... How can the people in our village be so simple and honest! Wuuuuu..."

Yang Qianjin held his son in his right hand and his wife in his left hand, and hurriedly comforted them: "It's not that only one family will benefit from this road repair. Those who have money will pay, and those who don't have money will work!"

His self-righteous attitude made Xue Shaohong, who was in the sensitive period of pregnancy, cry even more violently, as if she was free.

"We are so good in Lion Rock. Woohoo, even if the host invites you, you have to take the initiative to help with chores... When you repair the road, you have to eat your own food, drink your own water, and use your own strength... Woohoo..."

In Xue Shaohong's limited understanding of the villagers of Shizishan, the people here seem to be unaware of the benefits of money.

If you don't have to use your own strength, you can use other people's... Yang Qianjin wanted to refute, but when he thought of Chunni's instructions, he swallowed his words back.

Forget it, my wife is still pregnant with his child! Whatever she says is fine!

"Wow, wow, wow, wow. I'm so touched. I've decided to open my new garment factory in Lion Rock. Wow, wow...hiccup..."

They had the idea of ​​setting up a clothing factory a long time ago, and had been choosing between Guangzhou and Shenzhen for the location, but had never decided on one.

Now Shaohong actually said that the factory should be located in Lion Mountain, and Yang Qianjin naturally agreed.

"Hiccup..."

The sentimental Xue Shaohong couldn't stop crying and started to hiccup.

Yang Qianjin put aside the myriad thoughts in his mind and started to coax his wife.

Forget it. We have to wait until the road is repaired before opening a factory.

The most important thing for him now is to take good care of his wife and children.

Guan Jian would definitely not miss such a big event as the start of construction.

Not only him, he also brought the county's main leaders.

This groundbreaking ceremony certainly did not include the little Taoist priest's feudal and superstitious activities, so the time was set at nine in the morning.

The address was chosen to be in the large courtyard of the Shizi Township Government.

Chunni would definitely invite County Mayor Guan to give this speech.

After a lot of resistance from County Magistrate Guan and Factory Director Yang, the microphone was finally in his hands.

"Your Director Yang is a good at running the factory and making money, but I didn't expect that he is also good at talking. No one can compare to him, no one can compare to him." As soon as Guan Jian said this, along with a slightly aggrieved look in his eyes, the villagers who were watching the fun below burst into laughter.

"Speaking of Lion Rock, when I first came here, I had no other feelings. I just felt that this place was nothing like an oil painting. The scenery here is beautiful, but the villagers are poor! The patches on their clothes are like puddings, and compared with other villages, it is not much different.

But, look at you now, you are still wearing rags, but your wives and children have no patches on their clothes, they are plump and white, and you can tell at a glance that they are not hungry. "

"County Magistrate Guan, our nice clothes are at home!"

"Yes, who doesn't have a nice piece of clothing these days?"

Guan Jian pressed his hand, "I know you have a mountain of nice clothes at home! You want to show off to me? No way!"

"Hahahaha!" There was another burst of laughter from the audience.

"Everyone has clothes to wear and food to eat, what does this prove?" he asked.

"Of course our lives are better."

"Money in the pocket and food in the barn."

"rich……"

Guan Jian nodded with satisfaction, "Life is getting better and better! Have you ever thought about the reason why life is getting better and better?"

Everyone fell into deep thought.

"Thank goodness we have Chunni, who taught us how to grow dry rice seedlings." Someone spoke first.

"She also set up factories and workshops, paid wages to everyone, and made us poor old men live as respectably as the men in the city."

"There is also Yang Bangming. My son follows him and makes a lot of money." Someone pushed Yang Bangming out.

Building a highway is such a big thing. Several people in Yangcheng, such as Yang Bangming, Sun Ping, the Wen brothers, and even some who gave birth to babies in Yangcheng, all came back with their babies!

"And there's Sun Ping. My monkey made a lot of money selling televisions with him. He brought one home this time. Hehe. Come to my house to watch TV when you're free!" The old man who was speaking had his nose in the air, as if he was letting you bunch of country bumpkins take advantage of him.

"I'll ask my son to buy a TV tomorrow..."

"I'll go as well."

"..."

Guan Jian clapped his hands.

"We are all living a good life, and the contributions of Director Yang and others cannot be ignored. But I think the most important thing is everyone's determination to work together to live a good life. Unity is strength, and common words can melt gold! I hope that next time, when this road is repaired, you can give me a bigger surprise! Guys, better days are ahead, let's roll up our sleeves and work hard!"

Chunni...guys, what the hell is this.

Everyone was so overwhelmed by Guan Jian's praise that they excitedly picked up their tools and went to repair the road.

Chunni couldn't stop her.

There was nothing I could do but let the crowd leave.

In this somewhat depressing scene, amid the crackling sound of firecrackers, Guan Jian, Yang Anzhang and Chun Ni cut the ribbon.
