Chapter 675: Road Repair

"Road repair?!"

The whole family gathered around instantly!

"It has to be at least three meters wide this time, right?"

"Nonsense, it was three meters before, it has to be four meters this time!"

Logically speaking, their village road shouldn't be that narrow, but repairing roads in mountainous areas... In short, this time, Secretary Xiao Zhu had concrete data:

"Repair! The municipal government is vigorously developing the countryside this year, and the roads in several nearby villages are being repaired! We are the first batch, the main road is an asphalt road, repaired all the way from the county road fork, taking a shortcut in the middle, five kilometers, at least 4.5 meters wide!"

Five kilometers, 4.5 meters wide? Asphalt road?!!

"This feels a bit unreal..."

Seventh Uncle muttered.

"I also feel it's a bit unreal..." Song Sancheng and Wu Lan were a bit dazed.

You know, the original three-meter road, plus the roadbed and dirt surface on both sides, was already very good for cars, except for being narrow. Their initial idea was just to level the road so that big and small cars could pass steadily!

Now it's good, an asphalt road—it's smooth and not bumpy, and big trucks can come in and out, it's even smoother!

Secretary Xiao Zhu was also very happy—how should I put it, although she couldn't decide on the road repair, she was the one who would benefit from it!

Plus, people intended to sell favors, and everything that should or shouldn't be mentioned was mentioned. At this moment, she was particularly certain: "Don't worry, this matter has been decided! Once the bidding is successful, the engineering team will start construction immediately!"

"By then, we can reach the city in an hour!"

It's just...

"This road repair will take at least two months. If you want to go to the city in these two months, you either have to take a detour from another village, or take a speedboat from Jinhe River Bay to the suburban pier... If you have anything to arrange, you must arrange it in advance!"

Brother Zhang, who hadn't finished packing, was stunned: "Then... how will I come in the future?"

Song Sancheng thought for a moment: "Don't rush to ship today's goods, leave it until seven o'clock in the evening. The young man working at our house should be back by seven o'clock. His home is in Shangtang Village."

"You can take a detour from Shangtang Village to Song Shu Village, and then to the town. It will take ten minutes longer than driving now, but they are also repairing the village-to-village road, so you can walk."

Brother Zhang thought about it in a daze, but still sat back down—there were still three moxa sticks not packed.

And Song Tan also hurriedly called Professor Song—repairing the road for two months, by the time it is completely repaired, the autumn sowing will be over. At that time, traffic will be inconvenient, so she has to give instructions in advance.

Seeds, seedlings, etc., hurry up and send them over. Professor Song promised to gather good seeds from all over the world.

Thus, although the road repair notice hadn't come down yet, at this moment, the entire Old Song family was busy, and their spirit was very different from the past.

And it was only until this time that Song Tan remembered one thing: "By the way, Wu Lei brought a friend at noon today, and his friend brought two more people, saying they were municipal purchasers, asking about the situation of farming at home, and any difficulties, and also mentioned road repair..."

Secretary Xiao Zhu was instantly vigilant: "Municipal purchasers? How can municipal purchasers have this process of personal inspection? They don't manage these things either..."

"I don't know."

Song Tan didn't care much: "It doesn't matter if it's true or not, and we didn't talk about anything, it was just my grandpa praising you a lot... Look, you are a worthy granddaughter!"

"That's right!" Secretary Xiao Zhu thought so too, and at the same time felt relieved: "We are all one family, make sure to share some of these sauce beans with me later."

Does this even need to be said?

Song Tan was helpless: "Just tell me, what in my house haven't I shared with you?"

"That's a lot!" Secretary Xiao Zhu said resentfully: "I've been running around in this hot weather, and so many moxa sticks have been packed, but I haven't seen anything for me."

Song Tan:...

"You really don't pick anything... Give, give, give, here are three for you!"

Secretary Xiao Zhu smiled and took them, then turned her head and looked around: "Where did you put the straw cutter? I'll cut them into small moxa pillars. It's convenient to send them."

She wasn't very skilled with the straw cutter, but cutting it bit by bit, she still cut a full big box.

It just so happened that Brother Zhang was here, so she just needed to divide them into a few portions, and she wouldn't have to worry about this gift for the distant grandpas anymore.

It was only until this time that Qiao Qiao returned fully loaded on his tricycle.

On the back seat of the car, two bamboo baskets couldn't hold so much mugwort, and in the end, it was piled full on the car.

And when he moved all the mugwort down, Zhang Yanping and Wu Lei followed behind.

Entering the courtyard, he looked at Qiao Qiao resentfully:

"Qiao Qiao, I'm your cousin, a real one!"

"Look at this!" He pointed to Wu Lei: "You two also have a blood relationship, a real cousin!"

"I know..." Qiao Qiao was very confused: "I didn't call you younger brother either."

Zhang Yanping was anxious:

"Then your tricycle back seat isn't small either! The mugwort is piled full, if I lay on it and you bring me back, there wouldn't be any problem!"

"That won't work." Qiao Qiao shook his head:

"Brother Yanping, your work is dirty and smelly..."

Before he finished speaking, Zhang Yanping was anxious: "So what if it's a bit dirty? This mugwort will be rinsed with water later to cover the beans, it won't affect it!"

Qiao Qiao paused, and finally told the truth: "But you are so smelly, what if you smoke Da Duo?"

Smoke, smoke Da Duo?!

Zhang Yanping was stunned for a while before reacting, and at this moment, he was inexplicably sad:

"You would rather use Da Duo to pull pig food and dog food and sauce beans than bring me?!"

Qiao Qiao didn't answer, but looked left and right, looked at the sky and the ground, and finally whispered:

"But pig food and dog food are so fragrant..."

Zhang Yanping:... It was truly a wrong payment!

Looking at Wu Lei again, he said hatefully: "Don't you have anything to say?!"

Wu Lei raised his head in a daze, and finally said firmly: "People say that if you are frustrated in love, you will be successful in business. After I broke up with Lili, I decided to devote myself to my career! Look, isn't this quite successful? I can even get a commission today... I have nothing to say, I am very satisfied!"

After he finished speaking, he looked at Song Tan happily: "How much can I get?"

Song Tan showed a kind smile: "Quite a lot, he bought five jin of tea, five jin of white fungus, fifty marinade bags, fifty bags of cooling tea, five straw mats, ten tail-fork watermelons, and even bought two bottles of medicine from Dr. Guo..."

The more Wu Lei heard, the more his eyes lit up—this, this, this, this must be ten thousand!

If the commission is 5% or 10%, then he...

"1% commission, you also advanced 500 to pay off the debt..."

Song Tan took out her phone to operate: "Still 500 left, just transferred to you. Brother Wu Lei, save your money well!"
