Chapter 10 Old Village Chief

Lin Shan hurriedly lifted the curtain and went in. Seeing Elder Gen coming out of the room with his pipe, he couldn't help laughing. He opened his backpack like presenting a treasure. He took out a small half of the cans of alcohol, tobacco and cooked food, and filled the table with them.

" Elder Gen, this is for you. Looking at this cigarette, I heard that it was the big bosses who could afford it, it was too expensive. I only bought one. There are hundreds of bottles of wine, but it seems to be some kind of national wine. You should try it first and I will buy more for you when I make a fortune. "

"Bang! '' However,Lin Laogen suddenly struck the table and stared at Lin Shan, asking, " Lin Shan! How did you get so much money? Did you do something bad? "

Lin Shan was stunned, then he said with a wry smile: "Oh, my Lord! You are always so uneasy about me. I've been poor for so many years , why i can't earn money? "

"You'd better tell me the truth, quickly! How did you get the money? If you can't say the reasons, I'll break your leg! ''Lin Laogen looked Lin Shan angrily, staring at him.

"Well, well, I tell you. One day I went into the mountain to collect herbs, and then I was lucky enough to find an old mountain ginseng ... " Lin Shan explained the reason again.

"There are old mountain ginseng in Yunwu Mountain? Why haven't I heard of it? "Lin Laogen asked doubtfully.

"The old forest is so big, where is full of the original jungle, you didn't go too far. I have been running to the mountains all these years, and I have visited more places than you. If you don't believe me, you can ask sister Xinghua, who happened to see me selling ginseng. "

"Is that true? "Lin Laogen said hesitantly.

"Of course, it is true. I can cheat anyone, but I am sincere to you. " Lin Shan promised.

Lin Laogen nodded and seemed to agree with his words, saying: "I guess you dare not cheat me! However, Shanzi, you must not talk about this matter, or else you will not be able to earn money if everyone goes to the mountains. "

"Alas . . . . . . you had a bad life in the past years. You can save some money to build a house, and then I can help you marry a wife. Then I will not let your grandpa down. "

"Ah, listen to you! '' Lin Shan felt sad when he thought of his deceased grandfather.

"Why don't you save the money to build a house to marry a wife, you bought me so many thing! I don't need. "Lin Laogen worried Lin Shan, he also bemoaned the money, so he can't help but blame.

Lin Shan smiled and said, "There are plenty of opportunities to make money in the future. You have taken good care of me all these years, and this is what I should do. Oh, by the way, Elder Gen, I want to discuss something with you. "

"What is it? "Lin Laogen liked smoking and drinking, but looking at the good cigarettes and wine on the table, he bemoaned the money.

Lin Shan laughed and said, "I want to open a canteen in the village. What do you think about it? "

When Lin Laogen heard this, he hesitated and looked at Lin Shan, then he picked up the smoking pot and stuffed it with tobacco. He said , "There is no canteen in our village. If you can open it, it will be good for you and the villagers. "

"You are lazy, you don't do any farm work. If you open a store , the most important thing is to provide convenience for the villagers and to accumulate a good reputation for yourself. It is easier to marry a wife. "

"What you said is right. In fact, I have this idea for a long time, but I haven't had any money, so . . . " Lin Shan said and nodded.

After hearing this,Lin Laogen immediately pointed angrily at Lin Shan and said, "You have no power, but your ambition is not small. I don't care if I have no money. As long as you get down to business in the right way, I will give you my money, and that's okay. "

"I know you are always good to me, but after all, you have children. If money causes conflicts in your family, I would feel guilty to death. " Then Lin Shan motioned with his hand and then said, "No, now the problem of money has been solved. But to open a canteen, I need a place. My house was too poor, and its location was not good . . . "

Lin Laogen nodded and said: "That location is a little bit far! The best place in the village now is the threshing floor at the entrance of the village. But it will cost a lot of money to build a new house. Transportation brick cement or something, all of these need cost. I can persuade the villagers, they can help you. As for masons, I know someone, the wages will not be too high, but the cost of building materials will cost ten thousand of yuan, you are just building a brick house, if you want to build a building . . . "

" Elder Gen, I don't want to build a new house yet. " Lin Shan smiled and added: "As you know, I didn't have a very good reputation in the village before. Everyone thought that I didn't do my job properly. If I suddenly built a new house, the villagers would certainly doubt it. In that case, I won't be able to hide the fact that I dug up old mountain ginseng in the mountain. "

Hearing this,Lin Laogen nodded and said, "Yes, you are right. It should be take into consideration. What do you mean . . . "

Lin Shan took out a cigarette lighter, lit a smoking pot for Lin Laogen, and then said, "I want to rent the house of village committee of our village. What do you think? "

"You guy, so you have already planed . . . "

Lin Laogen pointed to Lin Shan with a smile, then said: "It's not Impossible to rent the house of village committee. It doesn't need to be used several times a year anyway, and it's a waste to be empty. However, the village committee is the collective property of the village, so If you want to rent it, you must make a contract and pay the rent on time. This money must go through the village finance. Of course, I can make the decision to make the rent cheaper for you. "

"That's what I want. " Lin Shan clapped his hands and smiled, "Then that's it. "

"It's a deal! For the first time you do business, I have to give him my full support. I'll call your Uncle Cai and ask him to draw up a contract. We'll sign it and you can go ahead with it. "Lin Laogen was more active than Lin Shan in this matter.

Lin Shan replied with a smile: "Then I'll find Uncle Cai now. "

Uncle Cai was an accountant in Xiaowa village. He could write and calculate, and he could write well in calligraphy.

This Spring Festival every year, every household's couplets were written by Uncle Cai, and even some people from other villages were asking for a pair of auspicious couplets.

In addition, Uncle Cai was honest and aboveboard, so the villagers all respected him very much. He was a very important person in the village besides Elder Gen.

Lin Shan naturally respected Uncle Cai, but it was precisely Uncle Cai hated Lin Shan , each time Lin Shan saw him, Lin Shan would avoid meeting him directly.

But this time to find Uncle Cai was for business. It would benefit the people and himself, so Lin Shan was not so afraid of him.
