Chapter 126: The Establishment Ceremony

  Zhu Zi Chuan and Zhang Ming Shun arrived at Cao Ling Zi Township together. After arriving, Han Yuan Qing had not yet arrived, so the two of them waited for Han Yuan Qing in the township, with Zhao Yuan Gong carefully accompanying them.

  Zhao Yuangong is neither a man of Zhu Zishen nor Zhang Mingshun, but rather a man of Deputy Secretary Guo Minghai of the county committee. Therefore, after Zhu Zishen and Zhang Mingshun met him, they both seemed not very enthusiastic. Zhang Mingshun was because he was a man of Guo Minghai, while Zhu Zishen was because since he took office as secretary of the township committee, he had not achieved any notable political performance, and the Jinhu tribute rice affair was all handled by Ye Pingyu.

  It's actually a bit unfair to Zhao Yuangong. Compared to the Cao Dafu era, the work in the countryside should have made some progress. He mainly worked hard on some conventional tasks and didn't delve into economic matters like Ye Pingyu did. However, Zhu Zichuan was a county party secretary who attached great importance to economic development, so he wasn't very satisfied with Zhao's work.

  However, dissatisfaction is still dissatisfaction. Since Zhao Yuangong has taken this position, he must have some strengths. If he can cooperate well with Ye Pingyu, it would be a good thing too.

  After staying in the countryside for about ten minutes, Han Yuanqing hurried over. As soon as they met, Zhu Zishen and Zhang Mingshun shook hands with him and exchanged greetings, had a brief conversation, and then took a car together to Jinhu Village.

  Zhao Yuangong led the way in front, and Ye Pingyu had already sent someone to wait at the village entrance. When the car drove into the village head, the welcoming team of villagers organized by him made a lively noise with gongs and drums.

  This was Yang Leyi's idea. There is a drum and cymbal team in the village, now that this thing is going to be made big, it should be made lively, just like during festivals.

  The three of them sat in the car and saw that the village was so lively, their mood was also good, because this shows that a small cooperative has mobilized the enthusiasm of the masses. With the support of the masses, work will be easier to do, this is an iron law politically!

  No one was left in the car, and the three of them got out of the car and walked towards the village committee. Seeing the county leaders get off the bus, the welcoming team beat the drums even louder. It's rare for county leaders to appear in the village, but now they not only came but also got off the bus and walked, making everyone feel excited.

  Ye Pingyu and Old Zheng rushed out to greet him. As soon as Ye Pingyu approached, Zhu Zishen smiled and shook his hand, saying: "Little Ye, you've brought the whole village back to life! The people's reaction is very enthusiastic, it's beyond my expectations!"

  Ye Pingyu smiled and said: "It's all thanks to your support, Secretary Zhu. Without your support, we wouldn't have gotten the special funding, and we wouldn't have been able to carry out this project!"

  Zhu Zi Chuan burst out laughing, and Zhang Ming Shun walked up front with a smile: "Xiao Ye, the county government also supports you, I have always loved eating rice from your village, you must make it big!"

  Thinking of Cao Dafu originally giving Zhang Ming Shun rice, Ye Pingyu couldn't help but smile secretly and said: "County Magistrate Zhang, then you must do more publicity for us, afterwards we'll send a few bags of rice to you!"

  Zhang Mingshun laughed and said: "I will definitely give you publicity, but there is no need to send rice. When you open the market, I will go to the market to buy it!"

  Han Yuanqing walked over, holding Ye Pingyu's hand and said: "Xiao Ye, we don't need to say much more. Your village rice has quality, but it just hasn't formed a brand effect yet. Now that we're cooperating, let's help you build a brand!"

  Ye Pingyu grasped Han Yuanqing's hand tightly and said: "Manager Han, from now on we'll be relying on your support. Without your support, it would be impossible for us to break through the current situation and continue developing!"

  The three of them shook hands with Ye Pingyu one by one, and then Old Zheng and others behind Ye Pingyu also shook hands with them. When Ye Pingyu introduced Chang Fang as the director of the cooperative, Zhu Zichuan smiled and said: "Young people have the courage to venture out, not bad, not bad, they must make a way."

  Chang Fang was extremely excited, her chest trembling with emotion, and the villagers beside her were stunned.

  Arriving at the entrance of the village committee office, the founding ceremony of the cooperative was held here. TV stations from the city and county were all invited to record videos and take photos.

  The founding ceremony was presided over by Zhao Yuangong, who first expressed his gratitude to the leaders at all levels for attending the ceremony. He briefly introduced the basic situation of the cooperative and then Ye Pingyu represented the township government to deliver a speech.

  Ye Pingyu's speech is an important part of the founding ceremony, he not only needs to express his gratitude to the leaders at all levels for attending the ceremony, but also needs to explain the establishment of the cooperative and the direction and goals of the next step of work, so that the leaders and villagers present can understand what is going on.

  While he was speaking, there were many villagers below, Ye Cunli and Guo Wenxiu, as well as Ye Bingyi's family, all looked at Ye Pingyu standing there, speaking seriously, it really made them feel proud, other villagers also praised Ye Pingyu in front of them.

  The villagers only understood what the cooperative was all about after Ye Pingyu's introduction, and when they heard his ideas, they felt very excited. Never mind other things, as long as they could sell the village rice well and increase their income, it would be fine.

  After Ye Pingyu finished speaking, Zhang Mingshun, representing the county party committee and government, made an important speech. He is the county magistrate. Although Zhuozi Chuan attended the ceremony, he just needed to be present. Big shots always know when to stand up and speak, and those who usually stand up to speak are not really big shots.

  Zhang Mingshun, on behalf of the county party committee and government, extended congratulations to the cooperative's establishment. He pointed out that the three rural works have always been the central work of the whole county, solving the three rural problems is very important. Now, with the establishment of the agricultural cooperative, helping farmers create agricultural brands and increasing their income is a great thing for serving the people, worthy of support and learning. It is hoped that the cooperative will become better and better!

  As soon as he finished speaking, the audience below applauded warmly. Then, by Chang Fang representing all members of the cooperative, they expressed their determination. The cooperative has directors, but also members. Originally, not many people joined, but after some work, it attracted dozens of villagers to join the cooperative. And after today's ceremony, even more people are willing to participate.

  Standing in front of the county leaders and so many people, Chang Fang as a representative spoke, her emotions were not ordinary excitement. Looking at her tall and full figure, everyone was attracted not only by her words but also by her body.

  Chang Fang stepped down from the stage after finishing her speech, still feeling very excited. After she finished speaking, Han Yuanqing and Ye Pingyu walked together to sign a cooperation agreement on behalf of both parties.

  The two walked to a table, took out their pens and then Hanyuan Qing signed first, followed by Yeping Yu. As soon as they finished signing, applause erupted, the two stood there tightly holding hands, smiling and waving at everyone.

  The ceremony was about to end, but Zhu Zi Chuan took the microphone from Zhao Yuan Gong and said: "I'd like to say a few words."

  As soon as he said that, Zhao Yuangong excitedly said: "Everyone, don't move, Secretary Zhu is going to say a few words, let's applaud and welcome him!"

  As soon as the county party secretary was about to speak, everyone immediately applauded and wished for him to stop, then said: "Today, participating in this ceremony, I didn't plan to give a speech, but seeing everyone so full of passion, I also have some words to talk about. Our county is an agricultural big county, Caolingzi Township is an agricultural big township, agriculture is very important in our county. Now the established agricultural cooperative has a small scale and not much founding capital, but its significance is very important. Why did I and County Mayor Zhang come to participate in this ceremony? On one hand, it's because we highly value agriculture - no agriculture, no stability; no industry, no prosperity; no commerce, no wealth; the character for 'agriculture' comes first. On the other hand, it's because Caolingzi Township attaches great importance to agricultural work and highly cares about the interests of the masses. Township Mayor Xiaoye has just taken office and started working on this aspect, this kind of work spirit is worth encouraging. Our county needs to develop, we need township mayors like Xiaoye who wholeheartedly plan for development. I and County Mayor Zhang came here also to encourage his spirit, hoping that all our cadres can put their minds into development, do things and start businesses with the masses together. As long as we can achieve this point, Donglin County will surely develop, and the masses will surely become rich."

  The speech ended here, and another round of applause followed. After the applause died down, Zhu Zi Chuan continued: "Just now, seeing everyone so passionate about joining the cooperative, I feel that our cause has hope. The county committee and government should further support us. I just had a private discussion with County Mayor Zhang, and we decided to provide an additional 100,000 yuan in support for the cooperative. Although it's not a lot of money, this is just start-up capital. As long as development goes well, the county will increase its support. I wish that the comrades from Cao Ling Zi Township and the masses can make the cooperative better and better!"

  Zhu Zi Chuan made a temporary motion, during Chang Fang's speech, and quietly discussed with Zhang Ming Shun, deciding to give another 100,000 yuan to Cao Lingzi Township. As soon as Zhang Ming Shun heard this, he also agreed, and after the discussion, Zhu Zi Chuan took the initiative to make the final speech.

  With the incentive of one million yuan, everyone's passion is even higher, and Ye Pingyu's expression is also very excited. The funds are more abundant, although it's still not a lot, but with this funding, some things that want to be done can be done. If done well, the county will further support.

  The ceremony was very successful, and before leaving, Zhu Zi Chuan and Zhang Ming Shun shook hands with the crowd, feeling a sense of joy together with the people. Han Yuan Qing was also infected by the atmosphere on site and shook hands with everyone, only getting into the car after shaking hands.

  After returning to the countryside, in order not to increase the burden on the countryside, Zhu Zi Chuan and Zhang Ming Shun had other things to do, so they hurried away. Han Yuan Qing stayed behind at Ye Ping Yu's invitation and had a meal.
