Chapter 218 People Returning Home (You don’t need to order it, it has little to do with the main plot.)
On January 27, 2006, the day before New Year’s Eve, Guo Yang, who was on duty, arrived at the company early and went to the factory to wander around. Returned to the office after a while.
After leisurely making myself a cup of tea, I clicked on the Huinong.com website, which was still under internal testing.
After just one glance, I discovered the problem.
The imperfect functions are the second best thing
Not simple enough, not beautiful enough, this is the main problem.
But Weiguang Company has only established the Huinong.com team not long ago, so this progress is already considered good.
In his vision, Huinong.com is positioned as a digital service platform for agricultural industrialization.
Covering 11 main service functions such as online transactions, Hui Nong Quotes, Agricultural Technology School, Farmer Friends Circle, and Hui Nong Selection.
But the requirements at this stage are not that high. We need to build an agricultural product trading network first and then gradually improve it later.
From this perspective, the task has been completed.
While he was thinking about what needed to be changed, he also recorded it.
The color of Huinong.com’s ogo is wrong. For agriculture, it is best to use green as the main tone to highlight the concept of creating a green and healthy urban ecosystem.
The logo shape also needs to be changed. After thinking about it, the two green leaves can be retained, but there should also be agricultural elements. Can the word "farm" be held up on the leaves?
The interface also needs to be adjusted, and the categories should be placed in vertical columns on the left;
The positions of market trends and purchasing data also need to be adjusted;
The photos of agricultural products are taken just like those taken by passers-by, and they have to be changed...
Guo Yang sorted them out bit by bit, waiting for the next year After some adjustments, the website can start trial operation.
But we also need to consider how to obtain the number of users, as well as ensuring stable supply of goods, transportation and distribution, sales guarantee, etc.
And because of the special nature of agricultural products, it is not easy to gain the trust of farmers.
He is not very good at the Internet, and Huinong.com still has a long way to go before it can develop.
After taking care of himself for a while, Guo Yang also decided to relax and look for novels on the Internet to read.
Jiahe had a holiday yesterday. Except for those who stayed behind, everyone should have returned home by this time.
Seeing that Guo Yang was on duty, part of the senior management team actually wanted to stay, but they were all driven away by Guo Yang.
The overtime work was too serious some time ago, so I went back to rest when I needed to.
Except for factories, offices don’t need so many people on duty.
……
Lu Hanbin’s hometown is a remote mountain village in Tianshui, Longnan. From the village to the nearest road, one needs to walk over two mountains.
He is the third child in the family. There are two sisters in the family, both of whom are married. In a family that values boys over girls, he has been doted on by his parents since he was a child.
When I was a child, my family was very poor and lived mainly by growing potatoes and corn.
Although my parents work hard every day, in the dry land of the Loess Plateau, they can only rely on the sky for food.
After being admitted to university, tuition fees and living expenses have become problems.
My parents put down their dignity and asked someone to borrow money. When he got to school, he also learned about student loans.
People in poverty-stricken areas have high gambling-like hopes for getting rid of poverty by studying.
It is not uncommon for students to borrow money to study and fall back into poverty due to education.
Walking on the dry loess road, Lu Hanbin was reluctant to drag his suitcase, as it would most likely break it.
So he put the suitcase on his shoulders, filled with excitement.
In the past three years, he only came back once, and that was the first time he saved money after working and paid off part of his family's debt.
In the next two years, I would send a sum of money to my family every year, and the family's debts had long been paid off.
Many people return to their hometowns.
In order to protect the luggage, everyone carries it in their hands, on their backs, or on their shoulders.
Distinctive scenery is also formed on this road.
Entering the village, 38 households are scattered in a long and narrow valley. Years of drought have left only a few bare poplars and elms as surface vegetation.
Every household has posted Spring Festival couplets, and there are more and more acquaintances, which also causes the yellow dogs in the village to bark.
While scolding, the owner looked at whose family the person came back from.
Lu Hanbin also saw his own house on the edge of the ravine. It was so dilapidated that it looked like a cracked persimmon.
If it weren’t for a black donkey howling outside the wall, this place would be lifeless.
He also saw a familiar figure.
But the sound in his ear interrupted his thoughts.
“It’s Han Bin who’s back.”
"That's right, Auntie."
"You've made a fortune. You've made a lot of money outside. How did you come back?"
Lu Hanbin smiled and said, "You came back by train."
The smile on the aunt's face became even bigger, "Oh, the train is good. My daughter came back by plane and almost got airsick."
Then she shouted loudly to the people at the foot of the mountain in front of her. The house shouted, "Guang Sheng, your Han Bin is back by train."
Guang Sheng is Lu Hanbin’s father.
This shout attracted the attention of the whole village.
During the Chinese New Year, many people come back from other places, and most of them come back by train.
“Aunt Li is showing off that her daughter came back by plane again.”
“What an air of air!”
"Han Bin is back too. He hasn't been back for two years."
"I spent the first two years making money to pay off debts. Guang Sheng's house is so dilapidated that thieves don't even want to visit it. "
"There is no way out to build a house here, it is better to stay like this."
"That's right, guarding a few acres of thin fields and dozens of dying poplar trees. There seems to be nothing to do except wait for death.”
“Education is the way out. Only studying can change your destiny.”
"Just wait until the kids can read it."
"Tuition is also expensive. Which school doesn't support students without breaking the bank."
"I don't know how Han Bin is doing outside. "That's it."
…
Lu Hanbin was also dumbfounded by Aunt Li. Tianshui Maijishan Airport is not yet open to flights. Can he say that he came back by plane and train?
At this time, another young girl walked out of the room. She was wearing a white down jacket and light blue lower body. She had a delicate face and looked very youthful and beautiful. The girl greeted: "Brother Hanbin."
Lu Hanbin nodded as a greeting. The girl's name was Li Pei. She was a few years younger than her and was also a college student in the village.
This valley is one of the poorest and driest places, but it is also a famous 'doctor's town'.
Every household has college students, as well as professors who have studied abroad.
Legends emerge one after another here, and it is surprising that there are no college students here.
“Let’s chat when we have time, I’m going home first.”
The environment in the ravine was very empty, and he listened to the discussions of the villagers, and was also listened to by the two people in the distance. The figure listened.
With a worried heart and heavy steps, Lu Hanbin looked at that weathered face, smiled and shouted: "Dad, Mom."
"Oh."
< br>
"Qiu Wa, why are you so tanned and you have lost a lot of weight."
"Mom, I have become a lot stronger."
"Quick, come in the house. Said. "
At this time, some people watching the excitement came over, and the parents took out some pine nuts, noodles and other odds and ends to entertain.
Lu Hanbin also found a corner and put his luggage away. He couldn't help but feel sad when he saw the bare walls of his home.
People in the village were asking questions, and Lu Hanbin was chatting with ease while looking at the situation at home.
Cans of tea are still being heated on the charcoal fire in the house. Earth is constantly falling into the pots from the eaves of the kitchen, and the earthen kiln is peeling off beyond recognition.
Looking at his appearance, someone asked: "Why, Han Bin is thinking about his new house?"
Everyone was attracted.
“If you ask me, this house is indeed a bit dilapidated, and it is not safe to live in.”
"Building a new house in this ravine is not a way out, we still have to get out."
Lu's father, Lu Guangsheng, and Lu's mother were also hesitant to speak. Their son had already reached the age of marriage, but in his early years, his career It's not going well, and it's only gotten better in the past two years.
Moving out is easier said than done.
There are many promising people in their ravine, and there are also those who drag their families into the quagmire.
But building a new house at home is not a wise choice.
Lu Hanbin smiled and said: "No more repairs, parents, please move out with me in the new year."
"Where to move?"
"The rent outside is expensive!"
"Han Bin, your father and his wife are both 60 years old, and it is difficult to find a job."
Lu Hanbin looked at the two elders and smiled: "I have saved some money this year, and I am going to work in the future." I’m buying a house in the city where I work.”
"Buying a house in the city?" Everyone was surprised. After being silent for a while, they were filled with emotion again.
“Sure enough, you still have to study to change your destiny!”
“The first-class people are loyal ministers and filial sons. Two things are studying and plowing the fields. This is what the elders taught me when I was young.”
< br>In a ravine that is short of water, minerals and even wind, studying and then moving out is the best way out.
When Lu Guangsheng heard that his son said he wanted to buy a house in the city, a smile appeared on his ravaged face.
"Okay! Okay!"
"The money you sent back in the past two years has paid off the debt, and we have saved some for you, and we will give it to you together."
"Yes, If we buy it outside, we can just stay in the village," Mother Lu said tightly.
Lu Hanbin frowned, "No, you have to go out with me, why are you staying at home?"
Lu Guangsheng said, "Aren't we going out for nothing to increase your burden? ”
"There is also a black donkey at home."
"If you don't go out, then there is no need for me to buy a house. I now have housing provided by the company."
The two elders He suddenly became anxious and saw that there was going to be a quarrel. The villagers watching the show asked Lu Hanbin: "Hanbin, what are you doing outside? Are you still a seed company?"
"No, I am now Controlling desertification in Minqin”
“Can you make money by controlling desertification?”
"With the investment of a big boss, if you haven't made money yet, you will definitely make money in the future."
Speaking of this, Lu Hanbin turned to look at his parents, "Mom and Dad, if you think you have nothing to do or are worried about dragging me down, you can't You can go to sand control with me, and you will be paid every month. It’s four or five hundred yuan a month per person.”
“Four or five hundred a month?”
"That's pretty good. It's nearly a thousand yuan for two people."
Father Lu said: "Can others want us?"
"Yes, I must. I have the final say in our company now!" Lu Hanbin said confidently. This dilapidated house really can't accommodate anyone, and it might collapse one day.
Looking at his parents' expressions of interest, he added fuel to the fire.
“I bought a house and needed money to decorate it. I have no money to get married.”
When it came to getting married, the two elders relaxed. Lu Hanbin rubbed it a few more times before finally getting married. It finally got the two elders to agree.
During this process, he also introduced his work in detail.
To turn the sand sea into an oasis, at most there are tens of thousands of people under his command, with hundreds of machines. They have met with big leaders, been in news reports, and appeared in front of people all over the country...
The villagers' eyes were filled with surprise. He couldn't hide his expression, and the news spread quickly.
Pay off the loan, buy a house in the city, have a high income, be a great leader, manage tens of thousands of people...it can make the villagers gather together to discuss for a long time.
In a nearby village, the four-year tuition fee for a college student may be thirty or forty times a family's annual income.
However, there are still countless examples of families going into debt to study, and commercial loans + student loans have also driven many people to a dead end.
In a few years, Lu Hanbin not only paid off his debts, but also bought a house and went out, which became the spiritual food for many people.
Lu Hanbin also felt that his parents' backs had straightened up a lot. Every day he stayed in the village, this feeling became deeper.
Lu Guangsheng no longer sits in a dark room and smokes cigarettes. Instead, he likes to walk around and say hello to everyone he meets.
He also took the initiative to go to Aunt Li’s house and give some snacks bought by his son.
