Reborn in 1994, escaping from marriage and going sea fishing, I won!

At that time, not every household sent people to work. Only the activists and some honest and loyal people in the village sent people to dig the pond.

Many people think that raising seafood here is simply a fantasy. Not only do they refuse to work, they also laugh at it behind their backs.

Now that they see others earning wages, they are starting to feel itchy.

Wang Laonian usually kept his mouth shut, but now that the money was being divided, he suddenly became furious: "Mayor Liu, why do they have it and we don't? We're all villagers, and we all use the village land! It should be distributed to all villagers!"

Those who had not received the money hurriedly agreed: "Yes, the village collective land belongs to everyone!"

Liu Yibang was about to explain when he heard Xu Zhiqiang stand up and yell, "When I was going door to door to mobilize people, you all promised me everything, but when it came time to go to work, you disappeared!"

"The land where the pond was dug is indeed within the village boundaries, but it's barren and saline-alkali land, and crops can't grow. Normally, there's no harvest at all. Now that there's a harvest, you're jumping out to share the profits. What good are you thinking?"

"Now that land has been distributed to each household, take good care of your own fields and don't dwell on the collective communal meals! If you don't obey, not only will you not get any money, but you won't be included when we dig more saline-alkali land to farm seafood next year."

It turned out that those who were dancing happily fell silent as if they were roosters with their necks strangled when they heard this.

If they act recklessly this year, they may not get any money, but will instead offend the village committee, and it will not be their turn to raise seafood next year.

Liu Yibang smiled and said, "We distribute according to work. The more you work, the more you get, and the less you work, the less you get. For those who didn't get any money this year, don't worry! Be more active next year, keep up with the pace, and you can also gain something."

"We still have 2 yuan left. I think our school building is leaking, hot in the summer and cold in the winter. It's very difficult to study in such an environment. I suggest that we use these 8 yuan, plus the yuan donated by kind-hearted people to rebuild the school in our village."

Every household in the village has children, and some of them go to school in Baxiang Village, so this proposal was supported by everyone.

Of course, 5000 yuan is included as a subsidy for teachers in the school.

"We support it! Let's rebuild all the dilapidated school buildings into large brick and tiled houses!" Xu Zhiqiang said loudly. "After the busy farming season is over, all the villagers, young and old, men and women, will join in the effort to finish building the houses before the first freeze."

Each initiative was translated into written form and signed and fingerprinted by Liu Yibang, several village officials, and representatives of the local community. The first harvest of Baxiang Village was distributed.

With the extra 200 yuan given by Boss Wang and the 500 yuan contributed by Liu Yibang, they bought a pig and prepared to have the pig-killing dinner.

Several village committee officials donated a sheep to make mutton skewers and mutton soup, while other villagers provided radishes, cabbages, potatoes, and other items.

The large iron pots used in the village for collective meals were brought out. The men slaughtered pigs and sheep, while the women washed and cleaned, preparing for the evening dinner.

Cui Jian looked at the busy villagers, as if it was New Year's Day, and was deeply touched.

"Yibang, I kind of understand why you've been working so hard and running around," Cui Jian said with deep emotion. "Thank you, Liu Yibang, for coming here and changing the poverty and backwardness here."

Liu Yibang handed over a roasted potato and said, "Here we find not only poverty and backwardness, but also honesty, hard work, and a desire to get rich."

"Yes! This is my hometown." Cui Jian said with a smile, "Liu Yibang, how are you going to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival next year?"

Liu Yibang smiled and pointed to the school: "I plan to invite all the teachers from the town to come to the school here, make a delicious meal, and celebrate the festival with everyone."

Cui Jian's nose felt sore, and he opened his mouth, and finally said only two words: "Thank you!"

"Okay, don't be polite. I'm doing this for myself. I'm not as noble as you think," Liu Yibang replied. "I also have political aspirations."

Cui Jian chuckled. "There's a saying that goes, 'Judgment is on deeds, not on intentions.' Your actions have benefited many people, so you deserve our gratitude. From now on, if you have any questions, you can call me."

"Okay!" Liu Yibang agreed. This was also polite. Good steel should be used on the blade. Of course, you can't bother the provincial TV reporter with small matters, only important matters.

At night, a bonfire was lit in the middle of the threshing ground. Everyone ate pig-killing dishes, grilled lamb skewers, and drank lamb soup. It was a very pleasant occasion.

The children are full, and their cheerful laughter is the most beautiful sound in the world.

Mi Xiaonan came up to Liu Yibang with a grilled lamb chop and asked, "Liu Yibang, do you really have 100,000 yuan to build classrooms for our school?"

Liu Yibang nodded: "Well, yes."

Mi Xiaonan's eyes were a little strange: "You... why are you doing this? Others are getting paid for their hard work, so it's okay for you to take some."

Liu Yibang smiled and said, "I have a salary and allowances, so I don't need these. Besides, my career has just started, and I'll have plenty of expenses later. I'll take advantage of the money now to renovate the school. Looking at those classrooms, I'm really worried that they might collapse one day and injure the students."

Mi Xiaonan blinked: "It takes ten years to grow a tree, and a hundred years to cultivate a person. Liu Yibang, you are really great."

Liu Yibang chuckled: "You are great too."

Two young people were telling stories about their hometown by the campfire at night.

The next day was Mid-Autumn Festival.

Every household celebrates the festival, and students enjoy delicious food made by their families at home.

Liu Yibang invited all the volunteer teachers from Shiyang Town to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival together. They had lunch at the village primary school.

There are a total of twenty-three young teachers from all over the country, nine girls and fourteen boys.

Liu Yibang bought two chickens, five pounds of pork, two large fish, and two ducks. As for the vegetables, they were all left over from the village committee after the bonfire party yesterday, and Liu Yibang took them all.

Everyone cooked together, sang together, and enjoyed the rare holiday joy.

They went back home at four o'clock in the afternoon. Mi Xiaonan went to the village committee and borrowed the village committee's phone to call home, wishing her family a happy Mid-Autumn Festival and that she was having a good time here and that a fellow villager was celebrating the festival with her.

"A man or a woman?" Mi's father asked hurriedly, "Xiaomi, is your extension of your teaching time because of that fellow villager?"

Mi Xiaonan was stunned: "Dad, I...I can protect myself anyway. You don't have to worry about me."

"How can I not worry?" Father Mi said anxiously, "No, since you won't tell me, I'll ask for leave and go. You're a girl, and I'm worried about you."
