Liu Qin was very humble and joked: "Uncle, don't listen to Liu Yichang. I am not a distinguished guest. I have to know all the affairs of a county, big and small. After all, I am just a person."

The housekeeper, like you, works for the common people."

"Governor Liu, how can this be the same?" Liu Xiangqian was about to speak.

Liu Qin smiled and said: "Besides, I am an alumnus of Li Rui's school. I am a few years older than him. He calls me senior sister. I heard that you have always taken good care of him. Do you think I shouldn't call you uncle?"

"Ahem, Lao...Lao Mao, what kind of wine is this? It smells so good, it brings out the alcohol bug in my stomach." Liu Xiangqian called Mao Buyi uncle just now, but Liu Qin called him uncle instead.

, how dare he take advantage of this?

"You're here before I even have a drink in my mouth. Li Rui, have you caught any fish? If not, I'll go net a few in the river?"

I was too focused on the guests just now and didn't pay attention to Li Rui.

However, the bucket was carried in the hand of the driver Zhang Zhe. Zhang Zhe stood at the end and no one noticed the big fish flapping in the bucket.

"Old village chief, who are you looking down on? Brother Zhang, go up to the fish and open his eyes..." Li Rui made a little joke to liven up the somewhat awkward atmosphere.

Zhang Zhe carried the bucket into the yard and dumped the fish on the ground. Several ferocious big fish jumped around. They had been out of the water for a long time, but they were still tenacious and struggling.

The old village chief's eyes lit up and he said: "Ah, this is the golden catfish, this is the black fish, this is the red carp, old turtle... Li Rui, you are really capable, you can catch so many big fish in just a short time!"

"

Among these fish, only the golden catfish is the rarest. The other fish are common in Turtle Village. Anyone who builds a net can catch a few. Ordinary catfish have a black back and white belly, and the golden catfish is called by the locals.

It is a golden catfish, and its nutritional value is several times higher than that of ordinary catfish.

Inviting the guests to the living room to talk, Li Rui went to the back room to check the bulk wine samples sent by Master Jiu, including three bottles each of small sorghum wine, five grain wine, and corn wine, and one bottle each of five-year-old wine and ten-year-old wine.

The bottles are made of earthenware, with black glaze inside and outside, and the words "Maojia Liquor Store" on the bottle. The price tag is attached with transparent tape. After a quick glance, the price is so low that I can only describe it as cheap. Except for corn,

The wine tastes too rough. Other wines are good. Li Rui has drank every wine and knows the true value of this wine.

The reason why Jiuye was asked to send samples was mainly because he wanted to find a reasonable cover to turn ordinary wine into medicinal wine without letting others know.

Originally, he said that he would not send samples of corn wine, but it seems that Jiuye couldn't hold back and wanted to show off all his brewing achievements. The price marked on the bottle is the retail price. If you wholesale it in large quantities, the price will be cheaper. But Li Rui doesn't plan to

No matter how low the price is, I originally wanted to contribute to Jiuye's family's brewing business.

However, after buying the wine, all the money on Li Rui's bank card was gone. He was already penniless, but now he was completely penniless.

"If Turtle Village wants to get rich, it has to find a suitable path. Although you can make a fortune by making elixirs or medicines, the money is all in my pocket. The villagers still live in poverty. Only this wine belongs to Turtle Village.

One of the major features of Turtle Village Turtle Village is that if we can create a brand like "Shengui Wine" and "Guixian Wine", relying on the herbs I concocted, as long as I drink it once, the effect will be immediate, which is better than the Mission Yedao sold outside.

If the deer turtle wine is many times better, there will naturally be many people buying it, and we won’t have to worry about losing sales.”

At this moment, I suddenly heard a loud voice coming from the yard: "Oh, what delicious food is cooked by Aunt Six? The aroma has spread to my house, and my mouth is watering. I can't help but come and take a look. That lady's craftsmanship at my house

I would be so happy if I could have 1% of Aunt Six. This dish is really rich, are we having guests?"

Aunt Six also spoke in a loud voice while working in the kitchen: "It's Lianghei, come and sit in the main room. Haha, look at you, just open your mouth when you want to eat, what else can you take, I'm afraid I won't give you chopsticks."

?I’m not so stingy, am I?”

"No way, my dad went to town to see a doctor these days, and as soon as I came back, I smelled delicious food."

This Liangping is none other than Hou Liangping, the son of deputy village chief Hou Delin.

Hou Liangping is a short man, plump, and has the belly of a general. He also has a very strange appearance, with a pointed head and a round face. He also has a small crew cut, which makes his head look sharper and his face look slimmer.

round.

He doesn't look very good, but he is very capable. He could fight and make trouble when he was young, but he takes good care of the people in the village. If there is a conflict between neighboring villages, he will be the first to charge, and the robbers will attack and lead them.

A man from the same village managed to gain some fame and established himself in the village, so his reputation in the village was much better than that of his father.

Hou Liangping had become somewhat close to Mao Buyi these days, and he wanted to ease the conflicts between the two families. However, his desire was not to drink, but because he was interested in the position of the village accountant.

The current accountant of Turtle Village is Mao Qingchun, another cousin of Mao Buyi, the fourth eldest, known as the Fourth Master. Mao Qingchun attended private schools for several years when he was a child. His enlightenment education was the theory of Confucius and Mencius. He was upright, rigid and conservative.

Hou Liangping usually doesn't move around Mao Buyi much, let alone come to visit with gifts. It must be because of Liu Qin's arrival that he came here to curry favor.

Li Rui glanced at the gift in his hand. It turned out to be two cans of tea, the kind of high-end tea sold outside. It looked like he had spent a lot of money on it.

"Just come and bring a gift." After saying that, Mao Buyi took the gift, which was considered as giving him face.

In rural areas, if guests bring gifts, if you don't accept them, it means you are looking down on them.

"How many people are there? Is Deputy Governor Hong here?" Hou Liangping asked in a low voice.

"Four people, plus the governor's assistant and the driver. The man named Hong is gone."

"Leave? It's okay to leave! That guy's not a good drinker. I'm afraid he'll drink too much and cause trouble in the village! Oh... why did the governor come to your house? If I hadn't happened to see you when you came back from fishing, I'd have beaten him to death.

I don’t believe it.” Hou Liangping muttered a few words in a low voice.

"That's the way it is. If you don't believe me, I can't help it. Just talk and I'll help Aunt Six cook some side dishes."

Li Rui didn't like anyone in the Hou family, and it was difficult to talk to Hou Liangping, which was not as refreshing as cooking.

Not long after, several wild dishes were served. Spicy catfish pot, pickled black fish, wild boar with whole pepper, and stewed turtle soup. The red carp had many thorns and was afraid of being cooked the same way as other fish, so it was processed with a squirrel knife.

, pat dry and deep-fried, then pour on the mixed tomato sauce to make squirrel fish. These are several main dishes, the side dishes are mainly farm vegetables, plus two wild vegetables, and they are made into ten dishes and two soups, which are delicious and delicious.

It is fully equipped and filled with the Eight Immortals table.

"Wow, Auntie, your craftsmanship is so good. It's a pity not to open a big restaurant! This catfish pot is delicious...you guys should eat it too, don't just watch me eat it, everyone can do it together to get the taste." Facing the face.

When it comes to food, Liu Qin doesn't have the airs of a governor at all, and is no different from an ordinary woman, but she does not forget to invite everyone to eat. After all, her status is there, and some people really can't let her go if she doesn't take the initiative to speak.

"Come on, don't just eat the food, try the wine from our Turtle Village!"

With that said, Mao Buyi had already fallen for everyone.

Five kilograms of wine, driver Zhang Zhe did not drink, Liu Qin and assistant Chu Ying each drank a glass, and the rest was divided among Liu Xiangqian, Mao Buyi, Li Rui and others.

If it is bad wine, most men will shirk it and say that they are not good drinkers. But when it comes to really good wine, men who love wine will rush to drink it.

"Governor Liu, I'm not bragging. Our Guicun wine is much better than Maotai and other things outside!" Taking advantage of the wine, Mao Buyi also started to brag about Guicun's wine.

"The sauce flavor of Moutai is very unique. To be fair, people who love it will indeed go crazy for it, but those who can't stand the sauce flavor will find it hard to swallow." Mao Buyi said, "Compared with Moutai, we in Guicun

The rich aroma of old wine brewed is so mellow and heartbreaking."

Like Mao Buyi, an old man who has lived and worked in a mountain village all his life, is a loyal and honest person, and has never talked much, let alone speaking in front of the leaders. However, after drinking, he also became a chatterbox and poured out his bitter words to Liu Qin.

, saying that the road from the village to the town is too narrow and difficult to walk, and large cars cannot get in. Some people want to sell fish from the river, but because of this section of the road, small cars bring fish to the town and unload the large cars.

It's easy to ignore it, spend more on labor costs, and suffer a lot.

"I've heard about this too, but hasn't the road been repaired?" Liu Qin asked.

"The road has been built, but there are a lot of troubles." Mao Buyi sighed and said: "To be honest, we built this road with debt, and so far, the money has not been repaid.

.”

Mao Buyi seems to have recognized the reality. It is hopeless to rely on funding from above, and he does not want to mention it. He can only pour out the bitterness to win some sympathy.

"Isn't there any support in the town?" Liu Qin asked.

"Hey, the village has a weak foundation, so I don't blame anyone."

"Then you haven't thought about any way to get rich?"

When Li Rui heard this, his eyes immediately lit up and he thought: I just want to lead everyone to get rich. I happened to meet Liu Qin, so why not take this opportunity to ask her for help, so that my entrepreneurial road will be much smoother, and I will not have to go there.

Less trouble.

"Yes, yes, but there is some trouble." Li Rui deliberately tried to make things difficult.

"How could it be possible? I did a survey before I came here. Our villages have a good environment and should be a wealthy land of plenty. However, the mountains are too complex, the mountain roads are too difficult to repair, and the transportation is inconvenient, which leads to poverty and backwardness."

"What the senior sister said is true, but now that the road has been opened, we are still very poor. What should we do?"

"Li Rui, you are a top student at Jiangmen University. You should lead the whole village to get rich. I can't explain this in a few words. I have a meeting in the afternoon. How about this? I'll come back later.

, let’s study it in detail.”

After lunch, Liu Qin and his party said goodbye and left. Their car was parked in the south of the village, where there was a spacious threshing floor where you could park your car or turn around.
