Chapter 1489: Intolerable to Heaven and Earth

~8 min read 1,496 words

The first day of the May Day holiday, the tourist reception plan ended perfectly!

In the evening, Secretary Xiao Zhu was overjoyed and held another meeting with the village cadres—rural meetings didn't have so many rules and regulations, they just talked about how much everyone in the village earned today!

Among them, the one that made the most money was the small shop.

As for the other families, as long as they planted vegetables, they all sold some. During the day, they just watched a group of people having fun, but calculating it in the evening, except for the Song family, everyone else made money!

The village cadres felt a bit embarrassed: "If tomorrow is the same as today, we'll be too embarrassed to ask the Song family to pay for the meal and labor costs—let the village pay for it."

Song Tan, as the main representative, was naturally invited over. She waved her hand: "No need."

She was young, but her smile was steady: "They are all uncles and aunties who watched me grow up. I'm just happy to have the opportunity for our village to make money together."

"No matter how much my family invests, during these few days of the May Day holiday, our family will provide supplies just like today."

"Once everyone has made money, it'll be just right to plant another wave of vegetables in May, and after that, we'll have to rely on our own efforts."

"That's how it should be!" There was no need for the village to pay this money—not to mention the labor costs and the meal costs that they didn't know if they had lost money on, even the Song family's tea was something they couldn't help but go and fill a pot with!

Could that be cheap stuff?

Now that the other party had the heart to help the people in the village, everyone was naturally happy.

Secretary Xiao Zhu was also quite happy: After returning to the village for more than a year, Song Tan had made a lot of progress! Now she could grasp this scale.

Helping the village isn't impossible, but there must be a limit. Her help during these few days of the May Day holiday was just right.

It could let everyone earn real money and be grateful for their family's kindness, and it could also avoid the situation where, over time, "a measure of rice breeds gratitude, but a bushel breeds enmity."

Very good!

This wave was a win for all parties!

The village chief also sighed: "It's only good if we make a name for ourselves! Otherwise, if our village produces a poisoner, we won't be able to hold our heads high even when we go to the county..."

This was talking about Old Lady Zhou.

This old lady already had a bad reputation, and now she was famous for miles around. Zhou Maozhu now felt ashamed to walk in the village—after all, she was his own mother!

Fortunately, his son Zhou Tianyu didn't have to find a partner in the village, otherwise, who would be willing to talk about this marriage!

Speaking of this, Secretary Xiao Zhu frowned: Old Lady Zhou was still locked up, and she didn't know how the court would judge it?

She was old, but she had just turned 70, plus the attempted poisoning had a huge impact... She should be able to be locked up for a few years.

In short, on a great day, everyone frowned, but in the end, they didn't discuss it any further.

And Secretary Xiao Zhu also emphasized repeatedly: "Tomorrow morning, broadcast a notice. We must not have conflicts with tourists. No matter how angry you are, or how big the matter is, call us."

"Now things ferment very quickly on the internet. If you bicker with tourists in the morning, bad reviews will come out in the afternoon. It's not easy for our village to get an opportunity, everyone keep your hearts in your mouths these few days."

This was as it should be.

People say poor mountains and bad waters produce unruly people, but their place wasn't like that; the feng shui was great! There were mountains, water, and land. And the people weren't unruly!

Like Shitoupo next door, a group of tourists were pulled over, and besides picking stones, they didn't know what else to do. That was an opportunity that was hard to find!

And Secretary Xiao Zhu thought for a while, and felt that Da Wang being a dog for promotion was good, but not sensational enough. The TikTok link of the tourist named Chen Yunyun yesterday, she opened it again just now, and it already had over 300,000 likes.

But it wasn't enough, it had to be more—should she call to invite her to come again tomorrow?

Speaking of which, Qiao Qiao was quite good, with millions of fans, making the local area popular was easy. But because he signed with a company, the big data algorithm expanded his fans to all corners of the country, but there weren't many local fans.

Even if he came to drive it, the number of locals attracted probably wouldn't be as many as one video from Chen Yunyun.

Secretary Xiao Zhu thought and thought, but gave up.

So she asked Song Tan again: "Are the piglets born to Da Zhenzhu all doing well?"

Song Tan was puzzled: "They're doing well."

A dozen piglets were round and fat, walking back and forth in the river beach like a pile of rolling balls, they were very robust!

Instead, Da Zhenzhu put on a weak appearance, as if it were exhausted from feeding every day, and couldn't get up without eating something good...

Secretary Xiao Zhu then made a decision: "Let them perform these few days! Strive to grasp the time of these few days, and let the name of Yunqiao Village spread."

Popularity is a very important thing.

For example, the rapeseed flowers in a certain place, after having promotional shots, whenever rapeseed flowers are mentioned, everyone will think of that place. It also drove many rapeseed flower attractions across the country to become popular.

And their Yunqiao Village, because it wasn't a professional scenic spot, might just attract some locals to come for a stroll during the holidays, and buy some vegetables by the way. But if the reputation is built, when people in the city think of buying vegetables, they think of their village, which is an incredible progress.

Thinking of this, Secretary Xiao Zhu felt quite regretful: "Our rapeseed flowers this year didn't catch up. If they bloomed in May, how happy the tourists would be."

They planted seeds given by Professor Song, and there were all kinds of colors, they weren't pure yellow anymore.

Not to mention, the rapeseed flowers in March and April were indeed fragrant and sweet, and they were tender when stir-fried or boiled in soup. Seven-Biao Ye even blanched and froze some, and Song Tan also missed them.

She then asked: "Otherwise, let's make rapeseed flower ham soup tomorrow? Eat it at noon, are you coming?"

Secretary Xiao Zhu said subconsciously: "Coming! Hey, don't change the subject, I'm serious, let your Da Zhenzhu take the children and walk from the river beach to the mountain and back like Da Wang, can the village allocate funds to buy them good food?"

Song Tan was a bit hesitant: "There are too many piglets, Da Zhenzhu can't watch them all. If there are cars on the road..."

Secretary Xiao Zhu originally wanted to say that the village would compensate if the piglets were hurt, but instantly realized that the village couldn't afford it. So she quickly changed her words: "Then it's still the road from Lu Chuan's homestay to the tea mountain behind?"

That road was built by Song Tan herself after reclaiming wasteland and improving the soil. It was a cement road, and the road surface wasn't wide. The other end connected to the barren mountain, and except for the Song family's car, no cars would go up.

Song Tan thought for a while: "That's fine, tomorrow I'll arrange for two guards to walk them from the river beach—remember to notify everyone to slow down when your official account is made."

Secretary Xiao Zhu was full of energy: "No problem, I know people who work on construction sites in the city, I'll go find them tonight and borrow two 'slow down' signs to use first."

Song Tan:...

This wasn't over yet, Secretary Xiao Zhu was annoyed again: "If I had known our village's soil and water were so good, we should have invited Professor Song and the others to study breeding and cuttings long ago."

"If that were the case, how many good vegetables would our village have now!"

Song Tan was amazed.

The profession of village secretary is simply too great! If Secretary Xiao Zhu doesn't get promoted, it's intolerable to heaven and earth! ===== CHAPTER 1490 =====
