At ten in the evening, the villagers who had caught the scallops came back. Everyone carried buckets in their hands as they laughed and shouted along the way. The Green Mountain Village had never been so lively in so many years, it was like a new year.
"Today's harvest was pretty good."
Lee Fei stood in the courtyard and looked down at the scallops everyone had caught.
"Fei, thanks to you, I managed to earn money when it's cool. How could there be such a good thing in this world?" Some of the villagers were overjoyed, their tone full of gratitude.
"We're all from the same village. Don't say it like that, you all work hard as well."
Lee Fei laughed, and then called Xiuqin out to weigh the weight.
Xiuqin was wearing the thin clothes that she had just worn, but she was already wearing her undergarments. She pretended that nothing had happened and passionately invited everyone to bring the scallop over to weigh it. Every time she finished weighing the items, Lee Fei would report the number on the spot.
"Uncle Zhang, twenty catties."
"Iron egg, fifty kilograms."
"Sister Lan, you're amazing. You caught fifty catties."
The reason for counting was to let everyone know. This way, they would be able to arouse their fighting spirit, and the next time, they would be full of energy. After counting the money, Lee Fei immediately took out the money he had prepared and began to settle the bill on the spot.
A pound of scallops five yuan, many villagers grabbed about thirty pounds, that was one hundred and fifty yuan. After earning 150 yuan in the evening, the villagers were beaming and feeling that good days were approaching.
Everyone was in no hurry to leave after receiving the money. They sat in Xiuqin's courtyard and boasted and asked each other about their income.
"Uncle Zhang, how much did you earn today?"
"Not much, just four hundred yuan. I'm the least."
"Daniu is amazing. It's worth seven hundred yuan. There are still a hundred yuan worth of scallops at night, almost a thousand yuan in one day."
"That's right, Da Niu is about to become one of the ten thousand families in our village. His salary is even higher than the city folk. When he has the time, he would find a matchmaker to talk to a girl in the city and give us face."
Everyone would always joke around with Da Niu when they had nothing to do. Da Niu had a good temper, so he was never angry. Whenever he joked, he would laugh foolishly. It was especially interesting.
Lee Fei also did an accounting for everyone in his heart. Every household would earn around six hundred dollars in Green Mountain Village at night on average, and this amount of income would be able to instantly kill quite a few white-collar workers. If it could continue on like this, then what would happen? Green Mountain Village would definitely become the richest village in East Sea City.
However, Lee Fei was slightly worried in his heart. How long could this lifestyle of relying on the mountain and eating the sea and the sea last? When they were finished, the scallops became less and less, and the income of the villagers plummeted. So he had to open up another way to make money and diversify everyone's income.
Therefore, Lee Fei stood in the center of the courtyard and said to everyone.
"Everyone, calm down. I have something to say."
With that said, the courtyard immediately quietened down. It was extremely quiet, and everyone's gazes were on Lee Fei, believing that he would bring some good news.
"The reason why our Green Mountain Village is looked down upon by the poor and backward people is because there are no roads, so we are cut off from the outside world. In order to change this situation, I decided to build a road for the village. In the future, we would no longer be destitute and poor, and we would no longer drag down East Sea City. The children of our Green Mountain Village can also go to school in the city. Everyone can also go shopping in the city, what do you think? "
"Alright!"
The courtyard resounded with thunderous applause and cheers. Every villager's face was full of excitement. Some of the older villagers even had tears in their eyes.
Repairing the road was the dream of generations of villagers, but who would have thought that this day would arrive soon.
Lee Fei's face was also filled with joy, the happiness of the villagers was his happiness, he continued to say: "Repairing the road is a huge project, I hope everyone can support me, and I hope that the road can be repaired as soon as possible."
"We will definitely give our full support."
The villagers shouted.
Uncle Zhang stood out and said: "Let me tell this big guy, the road construction in the village is not Fei's fault alone, it is also everybody's fault. Only after the road construction is done can we get out of poverty and become rich, so all of us have to contribute money. I will take out all the money I have earned in the past few days to support Fei in his road construction. "
Lee Fei quickly said: "Uncle Zhang, all the money needed to repair the road will be given to me. It's not easy for everyone, just put in a bit of effort and it'll be fine."
Uncle Zhang's neck stiffened: "How can that be? You've already helped us so much, how can I let you take all of them out? I don't have any money, but I can't just stand by and do nothing.
"Uncle Zhang is right, I will also take out all of my income to support Fei in his road construction." Another person stood up and said.
Subsequently, all the villagers took out all the money in their pockets and placed it in a basket. Soon, the basket was filled with hundreds of red notes.
Lee Fei was very touched seeing this, it was said that people move mountains with their hearts, so as long as the elders and masters of Green Mountain Village could tie it together, there would be nothing difficult about it.
"Fellow villagers, rest assured, I will definitely find the best engineering team to build a wide concrete road for the village."
Lee Fei said loudly, and the courtyard once again rang with cheers and applause.
Xiuqin stood in the crowd, looking at Lee Fei's resolute face, she suddenly felt a sense of pride. She was not mistaken, Lee Fei was the one who truly cared for the villagers.
Most of the villagers had not slept that night, and everyone was excited.
Early the next morning, Lee Fei drove her ute into the city. After sending the scallop, she prepared to find the engineering team to start construction as soon as possible. Lee Fei carried the villagers' hope, he had to fix this road.
Lin Ya was puzzled when she saw Lee Fei's energetic look.
"Fei, why are you in such a hurry? Did something happen at home?"
"No, I'm going to fix the road for the village and I'm in a hurry to find the engineering team."
"The Green Mountain Village is about to be repaired. This is a good thing." Lin Ya laughed, "In the future, it will be much more convenient to transport the things from the village, so this big sister must support it."
With that said, Lin Ya took out twenty thousand and gave it to Lee Fei, "This is elder sister's favor, for this period of time, I have spent too much, I am not very well off, you take it first."
"Sister Ya, how can we do that? I have the money to fix the road and the villagers even paid several tens of thousands. How can I accept this money." Lee Fei refused.
"Do you take your sister as an outsider? "We're partners now, your business is my business. Hurry up and accept it. If you think it's too little, then forget it."
There was no other way, Lee Fei could only accept the money. Lin Ya was a girl with a keen eye, he must help her earn more money in the future.
After sending the scallops, Lee Fei went along the road to look for the engineering team. He wanted to look for a large company to guarantee the quality of the road.
However, Lee Fei went to several construction companies in a row and was rejected by them for various reasons. The main reason was still too troublesome. To do the engineering at the Green Mountain Village, the materials and stone would have to be transported over by truck, so the transport costs in the middle were huge. Lee Fei's budget was limited, and he couldn't offer a high price. Construction companies could only make huge profits, so if they didn't earn a lot, they naturally wouldn't do it.
Lee Fei felt a headache. All large companies were big engineers, and he was not at ease with small companies. For a moment, he was stuck in a dilemma.
While he was aimlessly walking down the street, thinking of a countermeasure, the anxious voice of a woman could be heard.
"Boss Qin, please think about it again. Although our company is small, our construction talent is up to standard. We have the ability to do your project, but it will take a bit longer."
Lee Fei looked towards the source of the voice and saw a very capable woman chasing after a middle-aged man. She looked like she wanted to take the project from the middle-aged man, but the middle-aged man refused to do it.
Lee Fei looked behind the lady, and saw a construction company. It wasn't very big, maybe it was used to doing some small construction work.
At this moment, the middle-aged man turned around, and said with a fake smile as he looked at the woman chasing after him.
"Manager Faang, there is no problem with your construction company's talent, but the company is too small. Our project has to be rushed for time, there is nothing I can do to help. "And since your company is so small, quality assurance is also a problem. Now, we are very strict on quality control."
The woman's eyes immediately dimmed. The middle-aged man just so happened to be talking about her weakness.
Her construction company had only been established two years ago, and due to the small size of the capital limited company, it was very difficult for them to complete large projects. The projects dragged on for too long, and some of the engineers were unwilling to hand them over to her. There are also those who fear that small companies may lose money and end up with no one to take responsibility for them.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
At ten in the evening, the villagers who had caught the scallops came back. Everyone carried buckets in their hands as they laughed and shouted along the way. The Green Mountain Village had never been so lively in so many years, it was like a new year.
