Chapter 169 Cooperative Progress, Engineering Salesman(1/2)
Taoyuan Village.
At eight o'clock in the morning, the village committee building was very lively.
Ye Xiaofan and the old village chief have finalized the scope of the cooperative's fields.
This is naturally a big deal for villagers who want to invest in land and join cooperatives.
Most of the family representatives gathered here had received the news in advance and knew the results.
Many people also came to join in the fun.
Although Ye Xiaofan is the leader of the cooperative, he doesn't like to speak on stage.
Let the old village chief go up.
The old village chief is most happy to do this kind of thing, with a bright smile and a big horn.
The villagers were bustling below.
"The list of members of this breeding cooperative has been finalized, and I informed them privately last night.
“Our village has registered 162 households, but it is in the experimental stage and we cannot allow everyone to join the cooperative for the time being.
“This time only 35 households were selected to join the cooperative.
"Several of our cadres and Xiaofan have all seen your enthusiasm for participation.
"If it goes well.
“We will definitely further expand the scale of the cooperative, and take measures such as signing supply and marketing contracts with some villagers to bring everyone in.
"So, comrades who are not selected, don't be anxious. Wait patiently and wait and see.
"According to the agreement and calculations discussed with our cadres, Chairman Xiaofan invested 500,000 yuan in capital and technology, accounting for 50% of the cooperative's shares.
"Farmers buy shares at a discounted price, accounting for 40%, and the village collective shares 10%
"...
"I announce that the Taoyuan Village Aquaculture Cooperative is officially established!
"The contract will be issued later. Sign it and give it to me as soon as possible."
The old village chief had a lot of talk on the stage, some of which he had already said before.
The villagers did not object. Those who had objections had already spoken to the village chief and voluntarily withdrawn.
Therefore, nothing unpleasant happened.
Ye Xiaofan almost fell asleep when he heard it. He felt a little regretful and asked the village chief to do it for him.
Half an hour has passed since this speech.
The membership list is posted on the bulletin board.
Wait until everyone has seen it.
The old village chief drank tea, moistened his throat, and began to speak again.
"Taoyuan Village Breeding Cooperative is mainly engaged in aquaculture.
“With the village collective’s 6-acre pond on the north side of Taohua Creek as the center, we will further transform and expand the area.
"A total of 103 acres.
"So starting from today, we need a lot of people to help with the work.
"Priority is given to hiring members, poor households in the village. 120 yuan a day, including food."
There are not many choices for ponds. The priority is to be close to the water source, and then choose suitable land, excluding basic farmland, fertile farmland, etc.
In the end, only the land on the north bank of Peach Blossom Creek was left.
This is also the focus of today.
Open canals to divert water and expand the scope of the pond.
A cadre in the village, who has relevant renovation experience, will guide the construction of the pond.
As for what kind of aquatic products to cultivate, it is the so-called leader Ye Xiaofan's responsibility, and he has already considered it.
"I am a member and I want to participate."
"Count me in."
"I want to participate!"
"..."
The scene was a bit noisy.
This salary is already very high in the countryside, and food is included.
"Everyone, please line up, don't be impatient, members who are in difficulty will be given priority."
The old village chief and other cadres are responsible for organizing and ordering.
Wang Chunfang stood on tiptoe outside and looked around for a while.
When she found Ye Xiaofan, she ran over happily.
"What's wrong?"
"Thank you." Wang Chunfang thanked her.
"Um, what do you want to thank me for?"
"No...if the cooperative hadn't been established, my land would have remained uncultivated."
Wang Chunfang and her mother depend on each other.
The two women, especially one who was frail and sick, could not take care of the three acres of land and could not make a living from it, so they remained idle.
"Then you have to thank the old village chief and the cooperative as a collective.
"You thanked me and let people know about it. They thought there was something fishy about it."
Ye Xiaofan chuckled.
Wang Chunfang was speechless for a moment.
"How is auntie's health?"
"Much better! Thanks to the spiritual water given by Huang Xian, my mother has stopped coughing in the past two days."
Wang Chunfang feels that this has been the smoothest period of her life recently, and everything is getting better.
Ye Xiaofan thought about taking more care of them, "The cooperative needs to recruit a few aunts to do logistics and cook meals for the workers. The salary is 80 yuan."
"If Auntie is well enough and willing to help, I'll talk to the village chief."
Wang Chunfang was greatly surprised, "Mom will be very happy if she finds out."
She started to thank her again and happily went to tell her mother the good news.
The cooperative's preliminary phase is mostly completed, but there are still a lot of things to do.
Just the process of hiring villagers to work took half a day.
Priority will be given to members and poor households to register their names.
After lunch.
Fifty or sixty people and two tractors went to the pond of Taohua Creek and started working.
Some villagers weeded, dug soil, cultivated land, and cleared gravel.
A part of it is digging a ditch.
The area of 100 acres is equivalent to a square of 258 meters or 10 football fields.
The villagers are working enthusiastically.
With great wealth, Fengya also joins in the fun.
Two silly dogs were digging holes and digging grass next to Ye Xiaofan, picking up gravel.
He looked like he was working very hard.
Actually, just for fun.
After a while, they became dirty and dusty. From a distance, they looked like big yellow dogs.
Black lines appeared on Ye Xiaofan's forehead, "Mom is very busy, you will definitely get beaten tonight."
On a tree not far away.
Xiaobai led a group of squirrels, holding hazelnuts and chewing them, looking down at the people working in the fields from time to time.
Ye Xiaofan's phone vibrated and received a call.
"Oh, okay, you wait for me at the entrance of the village, I'll come right away."
Ye Xiaofan drove a tricycle and rushed to the village.
To be continued...
