Chapter 632 The Villagers' Plans
Shenzhen City is more than a thousand miles away from Tianguang City.
In an old residential building.
Zhao Ji lives in a room less than 40 square meters in this residential building and lives with his wife.
He is from Yushan Village. In the early years, because the village could not make any money, he went out to work with his wife, while the children stayed in the village.
At that time, I heard that Shenzhen's salary was very high, and that it would be the economic center of the country in the future. The couple came here to work.
In the first few years, I did have a good income by working hard.
But after a few years of turmoil, now, the construction of the Shenzhen market is getting better and better, and the prices are getting higher and higher, but for the workers at the bottom, the wages have not risen much.
Zhao Ji is now working at a construction site. His salary is 180 yuan a day and 5,400 yuan a month. His wife cooks on the construction site, and the salary is not high, only 2,000 yuan.
The two people add up to more than 7,000, and the salary seems to be high, which is several times higher than the average annual income per capita in Yushan Village.
But I can’t save money. First, the prices in Shenzhen are too high. It costs 30 yuan to eat a bowl of ordinary noodles. Second, the rent is also high. Their room is only 40 square meters and the rent is more than 3,000.
In addition, if two people eat and drink, they still have to pay 2,000 a month. This 5,000 is removed, and the remaining 2,000, 1,500 are sent back to my hometown, and a few hundred yuan are saved every month.
As a result, after a few years, there are not many savings, because individuals will always get sick. Every year, large and small illnesses, plus the elderly and children in the family sometimes have to go to the hospital. Two people have no foundation for several years.
Zhao Ji didn't know when this day would end. He thought of his daughter in his hometown, and he couldn't see him a few times throughout the year, so he was worried.
At this time, his cell phone rang suddenly.
Zhao Ji picked it up and saw that someone on WeChat asked him to add a friend. He turned on the phone and added the other party. Before he could send a message, the other party came to a video chat invitation.
"Who?"
Zhao Ji was puzzled, then clicked accept, and then a little girl appeared on the phone screen.
"Uh……"
Zhao Ji was still a little puzzled at the beginning. Whose daughter is so cute, and then reacted and almost wanted to slap herself. Isn't this his daughter Duo Duo?
"father!"
The little girl seemed very happy to see Zhao Ji, her immature voice came from the phone.
Zhao Ji felt guilty and couldn't see his daughter once a year. He almost didn't recognize him. As a result, his daughter immediately recognized him, which made him want to cry.
On the screen, Duo Duo blinked: "Dad, why don't you say it?"
Zhao Ji returned to his senses and said hurriedly: "I didn't hear it just now, Duo, why did you think of video chatting with me?"
He was still a little confused, whose cell phone Duo used to chat with him, after thinking about it, the new female party secretary from Yushan Village before, and chatting with him on WeChat, understand that Duo must be with that female party secretary. Borrowed a cell phone.
Duo Duo seemed very happy to see Zhao Ji, and chirped for a long time.
Ten minutes later.
Zhao Ji looked at the conversation again, fearing that Duoduo would make the female party secretary angry, so he reminded: "Duodu, where is your grandpa?"
Duoduo blinked, then put down the phone, and returned after a while. Duoduo and Zhao Tian's faces appeared in the video.
Zhao Ji was speechless for a while: "Dad, why don't you take care of Duo Duo?"
Zhao Tian was very excited to see his son, and he was speechless when he heard these words: "What's wrong with me? Oh, are you talking about the cell phone? I forgot. Duo Duo gave me the cell phone. Can I chat with your father?"
Duoduo handed the phone to his grandpa obediently.
Zhao Ji said, "No, Dad, I mean Duo Duo borrowed that Xu Zhishu's cell phone, right? I am afraid that Xu Zhishu will be angry when I have been video chatting for so long, and there is no wireless network in the village, which wastes so much. If you give Party Secretary Xu 50 yuan, don’t make people angry."
Zhao Tian understood, his face was funny and said: "You don't have to worry about it, Branch Scholar Xu is okay."
Zhao Ji said anxiously: "Hurry up and give your phone back. I will bring you one back during the Chinese New Year."
Zhao Tian shook his head: "Son, this phone belongs to me, so I don't need to return it."
Zhao Ji thought he had heard it wrong: "Dad, what did you say?"
"This mobile phone is mine, don't need to return it! The village committee pulled a car of mobile phones over yesterday and sent it to us as a benefit!"
Zhao Ji's eyes widened and he couldn't say anything: "Really?"
Zhao Tian said dissatisfied: "Where are there fakes, every household has them, and I heard from the people in Lijiacun, what is this brand called Guojiji? I can't remember, there are thousands of them anyway."
Zhao Ji took a breath: "Fruit machine?"
Zhao Tian nodded: "Yes, that's the fruit machine, the latest one!"
Zhao Ji still didn't believe it: "Dad, is this true? Our village committee is so rich?"
Zhao Tian said impatiently: "I told you it is true. Now the village committee is very rich, so you won't listen to you when you come back to work. Otherwise, you can get an extra mobile phone this time. Forget it. , I'll hang up first. Goodbye!"
Goodbye?
Zhao Ji secretly thought about the meaning of the last sentence, and then reacted, his mother's own father actually speaks English, when was he so foreign?
But this matter is not important now, he hurriedly called the villagers who came out to work together.
"Xiao Yuan, have you heard of the things in the village?"
"Oh, someone in your family got that phone too!"
"Really a fruit machine?"
After a few phone calls, Zhao Ji became a little confused and sat there all the time.
When his wife came back, she saw Zhao Ji in a daze with a heavy face. She thought something major had happened, and said in a panic: "Husband, what's going on? Is something wrong with someone at home?"
Zhao Ji shook his head.
His wife was shocked: "Is that you sick?"
Zhao Ji still shook his head.
His wife's face sank: "That's why you gambled?"
Zhao Ji still shook his head.
His wife said angrily: "What's the matter with you?"
Zhao Ji said seriously: "My wife, I'm thinking, should we go back to the village."
He told the matter to his wife.
"My parents also told me about this before." Zhao Ji's wife said, "I heard that the villagers in the village now have more than 3,000 people working for a month, and more than 5,000 people. Some time ago When the hawthorns are harvested, there are still tens of thousands of them. I didn't believe it at first. Is this true?"
Zhao Ji shook his head: "I don't know, why don't we go back and have a look?"
"It's okay to go back and have a look." Zhao Ji's wife thought for a while, "I'll go back and have a look first, anyway, I don't have much of my life, and a lot less than me, and it's faster to come back and find it again.
Zhao Ji thought about it, and then agreed with his wife.
In the same evening, there were many Yushan villagers who had this plan like him.
