It's no wonder that Director Ma blurted out to ask if there was a shortage of food, but that there has been a shortage of food everywhere over the years, and there have been people in the village who can't survive and come to the county to ask for food.

"There is still some grain that can be sown in the spring. Lao Zhao Tou hurriedly explained that when the general leaders heard that they wanted food, they didn't have a good face.

Director Ma said strangely: "It's not food, so what do you want?"

"The village wants to build a dam and wants the county to approve a little cement. Old Zhao Tou was a little embarrassed at this time, and hesitated to speak.

Seeing that Director Ma didn't understand, Zhong Yuemin simply took over: "Uncle Ma, our village and Grandpa Zhao's village want to repair the silt dam, and we want the county leaders to support some cement." ”

"It's a good thing to build a dam, and many villages are doing it, but what do you want cement for?"

"The ditch in our village will form a flash flood every summer after heavy rains every summer, and Grandpa Zhao and they have been building the dam for six years, and it is washed away every year, so we want to build an overflow channel and a drainage channel on the dam, so that the flash flood will have a place to leak out. Zhong Yuemin explained carefully.

Director Ma understood now, "Then your project is the same as repairing a reservoir, with overflow channels and drainage channels." ”

"Uncle Ma is a person who understands, this silt dam is actually an earthen reservoir, if each river ditch is planned in a unified manner, then we have countless reservoirs in Jingbian, which can hold sand and increase fields, and can store water for flood control. Zhong Yuemin patted his ass, his face was not red, his heart was not beating, and he squeezed out what he knew in his head.

"These are all you want to drop? Sounds like a thing. Director Ma was very surprised by Zhong Yuemin's performance, this kid grew up in the city, how could he know so much.

Zhong Yuemin hurriedly took out the book: "I don't have such great ability, this is what our great scientist Li Yizhi in Shaanxi said, he ran up and down the Yellow River more than 40 years ago and wrote many works on the control of the Yellow River. ”

"What does this big scientist do?" No wonder Director Ma hasn't heard of it, he has been in the army all his life, and he is not involved in water conservancy, so he really doesn't know so much.

When Li Yizhi was in the Republic of China, he presided over the construction of the Bahui Canal, turning 600,000 acres of dry land in Guanzhong into irrigated land. ”

When Director Ma heard this, he was also a little excited: "That's indeed a capable person, so why did he talk about this silt dam?"

Li Yizhi said that if the silt dam is repaired well, not only can local farmers increase their fields, but also stop the yellow sand from flowing into the Yellow River. In the past, the people of each village built the dam by themselves, and the technology was backward and casual, if our county can organize it, then how much land can we increase in Jingbian!" Zhong Yuemin continued to paint a bright future.

"Then we really have to do this thing! And we have to do it quickly!" Director Ma is a resolute person, "Let's go, take you to Director Wang." ”

Lao Zhao pulled Zhong Yuemin: "Baby, don't you get some cement, why did it become that the whole county has to fight dams?"

"Grandpa Zhao, if every village in the county had a silt dam, would it be okay?" asked Zhong Yuemin.

"That's beautiful! No one will starve to death next year. Old Zhao nodded and said, "What if the county leaders don't agree?"

"If you don't agree, let's ask for cement. Zhong Yuemin smiled: "The county leaders are always embarrassed to refuse." ”

Lao Zhao nodded when he heard this: "It's still that you cultural people have a lot of crooked intestines!"

Wang Zhaohe, director of the Revolutionary Committee, listened to Director Ma's report and directly refused: "Li Yizhi is a Kuomintang official, that is, a reactionary, how can we repair water conservancy according to the article of a reactionary!"

Director Ma was speechless when asked, and anything that had anything to do with the reactionaries made people shy away and talk about the tiger's color.

"Director Wang, what you said is so right, let's just destroy these canals, they are all water conservancy repaired by the reactionaries. "Zheng Tong likes to do this kind of thing the most.

"How can that be ruined! Little comrade, smashing and looting can't build a new China!" Director Wang persuaded in turn.

Zheng Tong was even more energetic: "That's not good, the revolutionary situation was very good when we were in BJ, why is it so depressed in northern Shaanxi, and even the ditch built by a reactionary dares to stay, this is lawless!"

"Yes, especially our Jingbian, I don't think the revolution is complete!" Zhong Yuemin looked at the beams of the roof: "This county party committee compound was also repaired by the GMD reactionaries, and in two days I will organize educated youths to demolish this reactionary county party committee compound and have a complete revolution!"

"Aren't you fooling around!" Director Wang was taken aback by these two, but he had heard of the great achievements of the BJ revolutionary generals, and there were a lot of BJ educated youths who came to Jingbian this year, and if they really let them all come to the county, I am afraid that even his position as the director of the Revolutionary Committee would be lost.

"Director Wang, how can you say that we are messing around? The chairman taught us that rebellion is justified and that the revolution is not guilty! You can't suppress our revolutionary enthusiasm!" Zheng Tong retorted.

Director Ma couldn't stand it, and just wanted to stop it, but Director Wang's attitude softened, and he said in a good voice: "Little comrade, the county really does not have the ability to organize such a large water conservancy construction now, and I am afraid that if the project is forcibly launched, people will starve to death." ”

"Director Wang, the village organizes its own labor force and prepares its own rations, as long as the county supports some cement for the people, they will do it themselves!"

"Old Ma, what's going on? Don't you want to build silt dams and reservoirs in the whole county? Now you only need cement?" Director Wang was a little confused.

Director Ma explained: "Director, this is the village chief of Wang Village, their village has been building a dam for six years, and it has been washed away by floods every year. ”

"Then why did you start to say that you want the whole county to build silt dams?"

"Director, it's strange, I didn't make it clear for a while. I heard from the educated youth that the big scientists are all in favor of building a silt dam, so that the people of the county can have enough to eat, and I was too excited for a while. ”

"Oh, that's it. Old horse, you can't be surprised when you work in the future. Without waiting for Director Ma to explain, Director Wang said again: "I also know that I am not worried about the belly of the people, but I am not an example." ”

Director Ma nodded yes, seeing that Director Wang was looking at Zhong Yuemin and Zheng Tong, and hurriedly helped to say good things: "Both of them are good babies, and they are also in a hurry, and they speak out of proportion......

Director Wang waved his hand: "Today I did see the power of the people from the city. ”

Zheng Tong was still seven dissatisfied with eight resentment, Zhong Yuemin saw the change in the limelight, kicked Zheng Tong, and said: "Director Wang, the two of us are young and ignorant, as long as you are willing to give us the cement, the two of us will bow and apologize to you." ”

"I can't afford to turn around and take on the hat of a counter-revolutionary. After Director Wang finished speaking, he stopped paying attention to them, and said to Director Ma: "Take them back first, I still have some documents to approve." ”

"Okay, Director Wang, you are busy first!" Director Ma said and pulled a few people away.

As soon as he went out, Zheng Tong asked: "Is this cement approved or not?"

"It's not good to say now, you go to the guest house and rest first, and then talk about it tomorrow. Director Ma replied.

Zheng Tong wanted to say something, but was stopped by Zhong Yuemin.

Old Zhao Tou blamed himself at this time: "Is something bad going on?"

"It's okay, Grandpa Zhao, if Director Wang doesn't approve us with cement, let's just live here, eat him and drink him, as you said. Zhong Yuemin comforted.

Director Ma thought it was funny when he heard it, these two are really capable. Director Ma arranged for them to stay, and before leaving, he explained a few words to Zhong Yuemin.

"Yuemin!"

Zhong Yuemin sent Director Ma away, and just as he was about to enter the door, he heard someone call him.
