Chapter 499 Changes in the Village

They got off the train, took a bus to the county town, and then took a truck from the village. It took them almost two days to reach Yangjia Village.

Qin Wangshu recalled his first visit to Yangjia Village. Back then, they used to ride in ox carts, but now they didn't need them anymore. Although there were no cars, there were trucks that came to pick them up.

This truck belongs to the village. In order to deliver goods better, the villagers bought a truck together. It can be used to deliver goods when there is goods, and can be used to take on other business when there is no goods.

The conditions nowadays are much better than before, but this time it takes longer than before. I have been living a life of luxury for too long and I really can't withstand such bumps.

Instead of going through all this trouble, it would be better to take a break before continuing on their journey. So after getting off the train, they found a hotel to stay overnight before taking a bus back to the county town.

When they arrived at Yangjia Village, they saw a brand new scene.

The old earthen houses have completely disappeared, and blue brick and tile houses are no longer uncommon. Now the houses in the village are all brand new, two-story red brick buildings.

Because land represents wealth, Village Chief Yang held a meeting to solicit opinions from all villagers and grouped all the homesteads together so that the previous homesteads could be turned into fields again.

Apart from anything else, gathering the houses together makes it much easier to notify people when something happens, and gathering the fields together seems to make it more convenient to operate machines.

In the past two years, the village has not only bought trucks, but also a lot of agricultural machinery. Now almost all the farm work in their village is done by machines, which is very easy.

"It's changed so much. If I didn't know the big locust tree at the entrance of the village, I would have thought I had gone to the wrong place!" Aunt Luo looked at the scenery in front of her greedily, as if she wanted to imprint all the changes in her hometown in her mind.

"Yes, it's huge." Yang Mingye had been away from home for many years and had come back before, but none of the changes he saw were as big as this time.

After attending their wedding in Beijing, Village Chief Yang brought his people back early. There were many things going on in the village and he was very worried.

In fact, according to his age, he should have taken a rest, but he had a good relationship with Yang Mingye's family, and they would contact him whenever there was anything. In addition, Village Chief Yang still had a lot of prestige in the village, so he continued to serve as the village chief.

But now he is only in charge of the general direction, so it is not too tiring.

"This is just the change in the last two years. There wasn't such a change in previous years!" Aunt Luo is happy to see her family living a better life. "It's also thanks to the good policies of the country!"

Aunt Luo has now seen big things, and because of this, she is even more grateful to the country.

Aunt Luo's garment factory in Beijing has expanded from a few sewing machines to dozens of them, and can produce thousands of sets of clothes a day.

Before they came back, Aunt Luo had just bought a batch of new overlock machines, and after they returned to Beijing, they planned to expand production.

"You're right. Thank you so much for the country's policies. You're back!" Village Chief Yang came out to greet them. "Come to my house first to rest and have some water. I'll ask your sister-in-law and nephew to take you back."

"Okay." Aunt Luo nodded, and Qin Wangshu and the others had no objection.

Although they haven't been back for a long time, Aunt Luo believes that the house should not be too dirty. Her key is at Village Chief Yang's house, and she thinks that they will come over from time to time to help clean up.
