Qi Tongwei: Sign-in relationship started during student days

Chapter 26: Daily life in the village

After paying off his debt and resolving a worry, Qi Tongwei felt relieved.

Next, Qi Tongwei took out another three hundred yuan and said, "Everyone, this three hundred is my donation to the village. The reason why our village is so poor is because the cost of selling the things we grow is very high, so we need to build roads."

"Village chief, I hope you can organize everyone to build a lane during the slack season. Of course, this is not something that can be done in one go. We should proceed step by step."

"I'll repair a little this year, and a little next year. As long as I can still make money, I will solve this problem for the village."

If you want to get rich, build roads first. This is not just a slogan.

If Qi Tongwei wants to make everyone rich, he must first build a road to the outside world.

Otherwise, even if you want to grow cash crops in the future, you won’t be able to sell them.

The village chief took the money and held it high. "Now that Tongwei has made progress and is willing to contribute to the village, I, Qi Kaiping, am not a coward. Today, while everyone is here, I will make a promise here. No matter what happens next year, we will first open up a fair road."

"Okay! Okay!!"

"Well done, Tongwei!"

"As expected of a college student!"

"Our Qijia Village is finally going to be prosperous!"

"..."

The villagers are full of confidence. They couldn’t leave before because they had no money and no people.

This money is capital, and people are the ones who can make decisions on behalf of everyone, a wise mind.

Although the old village chief is young and strong, he has not received much education. He can only handle some instructions conveyed by the county and town. He has no courage to lead the villagers to do anything.

As for building the road, there was no money to buy tools or provide meals. Who would have the extra energy to spend on this? Qi Tongwei had only had a few full meals before he went to college. You can imagine how poor he was.

Now Qi Tongwei has earned what a group of them would earn in several years in just half a year. He is a capable man and has given everyone hope.

...

noon.

The house was bustling with activity, and we cooked a table full of dishes that were rarely seen even in previous Chinese New Years.

There are only two meat dishes, a chicken and a fish. Although there are few seasonings, the rural people always use their skills to make simple meals fragrant.

The brothers and sisters looked at the table of food with shining eyes and swallowed their saliva, but they knew that the star of the table was Qi Tongwei. They had been told by their parents to only eat vegetables and not meat. Even the food in their bowls was watery, only Qi Tongwei's bowl was dry.

They were used to it, because they couldn't read. Their two younger sisters could read, but unfortunately they were girls, and sooner or later they would become someone else's property, and would not be valued by their family.

Qi Tongwei also noticed this situation, but he did not start eating.

"Tongwei, why don't you eat?" Qi's mother asked with concern.

"Mom, let's all sit down and eat together. Our son is making a lot of money now, so there's no need for us to be divided into different classes."

Qi Tongwei snatched the bowl of porridge from his younger sister Qi Xiaohua and scooped up the chicken with two chopsticks. "Look, my little sister has become so thin."

"She's a girl and she doesn't have to do anything, so why would she eat meat?" Qi's mother was about to come over and take the food away.

Qi Tongwei threw his chopsticks down and said, "Listen to me, everyone, come to the table and eat meat!"

The room fell into silence, and several brothers and sisters looked at Qi's mother hopefully.

Father Qi had no choice but to persuade him, "Tongwei, this is not how you live your life."

Words alone cannot correct a man over fifty years old whose fixed mindset is already in place.

Qi Tongwei had no choice but to get up and walk into the inner room, open the suitcase, leave two hundred yuan, and throw the remaining cash on the table.

"This is two thousand one hundred yuan, just part of my money. Our family really doesn't have to live a hard life anymore."

Father Qi snatched it and was about to go to the inner room to put it back into the suitcase, "Tongwei, you can't show the money casually. Besides, there is no external account now, and you need it for your studies."

Qi Tongwei stopped his father and said earnestly, "Dad, I'm serious. Next year, even if it's 100,000, I can afford it, so you all listen to me. I will let our family live a good life."

"Also, after the New Year, I will take my elder and second brothers out with me. Our few acres of land cannot support our entire family."

When they heard that Qi Tongwei was going to take them out, the two honest men immediately raised their heads from their bowls.

Qi Tongwei's career had already started and he had made his first pot of gold, but he lacked some trustworthy people. His two brothers were the best candidates.

"Tongwei, will it affect your studies if you have to take care of both of them?" Qi's father's focus is still on Qi Tongwei.

If you delay the great cause of Wenquxing in this family, you will be damned.

"No, I plan to open a small shop and let my two brothers run it. In addition, Dahua and Xiaohua at home also need to continue their studies. They have talents and cannot waste them. I will pay for their tuition."

Before, Qi's father and mother wanted to stop the two younger sisters' studies and focus on supporting Qi Tongwei, but they only compromised after Qi Tongwei threatened to give up his studies.

Seeing that Qi Tongwei was becoming more and more resolute, Qi's father and mother were both happy and worried.

I am happy that the family finally has a promising son to support it, but I am also worried that other family members will drag him down.

"Now sit down and eat." Qi Tongwei said.

This time, Qi's father and mother did not object. Everyone sat at the table and Qi Tongwei picked up food for them one by one.

After dinner, Qi Tongwei walked around the village, observing the terrain and environment.

Qi Tongwei, who did not inherit Director Qi's memory, does not know much about Qijia Village.

Qijia Village is a village with the characteristics of a rural area on the Chinese plain. Apart from some inconvenient transportation, other aspects are remarkable.

There is an endless plain with a broad view. Not far away there is a clear river flowing eastward. If it can be developed well, it will be a good tourism industry in the future, but it is not very suitable now.

The main reason is that people have not yet become completely rich, so how can they have extra money to go out and travel?

If tourism doesn’t work, then do planting.

Handong has a warm temperate monsoon climate with a significant monsoon, distinct climate, abundant sunshine and rainfall, making it a good place for planting.

Moreover, the fruit market is still a blueprint with great potential.

I’m afraid the villagers won’t agree to change their rice crops to trees.

"elder brother."

When Qi Tongwei was thinking about how to persuade her, Qi Dahua took an apple and ran over breathlessly.

The dirty little face turned red from the cold wind.

Due to years of malnutrition, Dahua, who was already a junior high school student at the age of 15, was half a head shorter than her peers.

"Dahua, what are you doing here?"

"Here, my mother asked me to give it to you." Dahua handed over the red fruit in her hand.

"Apple? I don't eat it, you eat it." Qi Tongwei hated eating apples since he was a child, and it is still the same in this life.

"Brother, this is something mom bought for you. Didn't you love eating it?"

"You don't have to give me all the good stuff. Besides, the past was the past, and the present is the present. I'm tired of it now."

In the past, Director Qi didn’t have much good food to eat, and it was a pity that he could even have some fruit.

He didn't lack this fruit. He had eaten all kinds of fruits in his previous life. Apple was just the most basic fruit, and Qi Tongwei really didn't like eating apples.
