Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Beginning
Yang Zongming glanced at Shen Congyun, walked to the office door and closed the door, then walked up to Shen Congyun and said softly: "Township Chief Shen, I am telling you this to let you know that you can't trust others too much, including Secretary Xiao Zhou. β
Yang Zongming is a person who can't hide things in his heart, he can say whatever he wants, what he said is not a secret at all, there are such rumors in the township government and even in the village, seeing Jia Yafeng's actions today, Yang Zongming felt that he should order Shen Congyun a little, and was the first to tell Shen Congyun this.
"If you don't trust, our team can't do anything, what I need to do is to unite the members of our team, when I first came, I knew that my arrival affected the interests of many people, but I am not afraid at all, because I came here, not only to exercise myself, but more importantly, to make my own life more meaningful, I think every thing for the people is the most meaningful, the most can make me feel sincerely happy, of course, I want to thank Township Chief Yang for telling me this, Secretary Xiao Zhou and your old colleagues for so many years, you can say this to me, is the greatest love for meγ Shen Congyun never suspected that Yang Zongming was sowing discord, in this era, in this environment, the ideological consciousness of low-level officials is higher than that of high-level officials more than ten years later.
The reason why Yang Zongming told Shen Congyun these things was that on the one hand, he wanted to remind Shen Congyun to beware of Zhou Xiannian and Jia Yafeng, and on the other hand, he also wanted to express his kindness.
"Secretary Shen, it's good if you have a plan in your heart, I won't speak, in two days, after this busy period, come to my house for a meal, you haven't been to my house yet. Yang Zongming made an invitation.
"Of course you can, just this Saturday night, when the time comes, I will accompany Township Chief Yang for a drink. Shen Congyun did not refuse Yang Zongming's invitation.
After the two of them finished chatting, the party secretaries of each village rushed over.
Huji Town is the largest township in addition to the town in the city, with 53 villages, which used to be divided into 12 production brigades, and this meeting was more detailed and complicated, from the afternoon meeting Shen Congyun said until the evening.
Shen Congyun asked the branch secretaries of each brigade to mobilize the people, and each family produced an adult man, who was free to see labor, and the township government was in charge of three meals a day, and the six kiln factories located in Liguan Village, Xinlong Village, North Street, South Street, Chenmiao Village, and Liulou Village immediately started to produce bricks, and the raw materials were purchased by the township government.
At this meeting, Shen Congyun said to the village party secretaries more than once that ideological work must be done well, and at this time, it is actually very easy for the government to organize this kind of unpaid collective labor, because it has not been a few years since the disbandment of the production brigade, and the masses of the people can easily adapt to it.
Yang Zongming went to Suiyang District in the city, found the coal factory, and asked for a batch of coal, which is a necessary material for burning bricks, and it is also the most expensive part of this school rectification action.
The village party secretaries are very energetic, and when they used to produce the brigade, these village party secretaries were the main leaders of the brigade and knew this kind of work.
After the meeting, the six villages with kiln factories started production under the command of the village party secretaries.
Before the shutdown, the kiln factory has piled up a huge number of red bricks, these bricks have been pulled by the people to the surroundings of Huji No. 1 Middle School, Huji No. 1 Middle School school area is very large, but there are too few rooms, in the overall planning, Huji No. 1 Middle School to build three floors of eighteen classrooms, and Huji No. 1 Middle School this task to South Street and East Street, for bricks to the North Street Kiln Factory, of course, North Street Kiln Factory in addition to the supply of Huji No. 1 Middle School, but also to take into account the bricks of other schools, because the North Street Kiln Factory is the largest kiln factory with the fastest production speed in Huji.
The work of the villagers is very easy to do, anyway, they are idle at home, not to mention that building a house is actually a kind of handicraft now, and many people who do not have a skill want to learn from those masters, and everyone is very enthusiastic.
On Saturday, Shen Congyun and Zhou Xiannian went to the city's largest state-owned building materials market, and bought a batch of building materials at the price of internal purchases, which cost a total of 18,000 yuan, a huge amount, and the purchasing power of money in this era is very huge.
Shen Congyun went to the place where the school was located, and listened to the suggestions of those architecture teachers for building a school, Shen Congyun really didn't understand architecture, and he also respected these self-taught teachers.
On Friday morning, Shen Congyun went to the county to find County Magistrate Wang Yantao and invited County Magistrate Wang Yantao to attend the groundbreaking meeting of Huji No. 1 Middle School on Monday.
Wang Yantao gladly accepted.
Shen Congyun hasn't slept well in the past few days, he is physically and mentally exhausted, and his addiction to smoking has also come up, and when he got off the construction site, the cigarettes were almost one after another.
All the work was carried out in an orderly manner, but the problem gradually became apparent, and there was not enough money.
Especially the coal that burns bricks, it is simply a bottomless pit, the production speed of the kiln factory is fast, the coal bought by 8,000 was used that time, and the effort has been used almost in the past few days, Yang Zongming told Shen Congyun about this situation, and these did not cause trouble to Shen Congyun, because the purchase of coal is proportional to the number of bricks produced, he asked the kiln factory very experienced masters, the number of coal bricks of 20,000 yuan is absolutely exceeded, this number is bearable, it is really not good, just pay it on credit, and slowly pay it back when the time comes.
On Saturday afternoon, Shen Congyun took two bottles of wine and two catties of sugar to Yang Zongming's house.
Yang Zongming's wife started cooking very early, Yang Zongming was very happy when he saw Shen Congyun coming, and welcomed Shen Congyun into the room, Yang Zongming's home is not as good as Zhou Xiannian's home, their family has three houses made of mud, this kind of house is very common in Huji, and one of the side rooms is built of red bricks, but looking at the curtains or something, it should be Yang Zongming's daughter.
Yang Zongming's wife made several dishes, and there was a hard dish, braised pork, and on the small square table, there was also a bottle of Huaihe wine, which was produced in the city and was considered a little high-end.
After the two of them sat down, Yang Zongming poured Shen Congyun a glass of wine, and then poured himself a glass.
Shen Congyun raised his glass and said: "This glass of wine, I respect Township Chief Yang, thank you Township Chief Yang for your support to my work, these days, I have worked hard." β
Yang Zongming hurriedly picked up the wine glass: "Township Chief Shen, you say this, I don't drink, this glass of wine, I should respect you, if you don't come, the people of our township government are still doing it in a mess, your arrival has brought me back to the passionate life when I was in the production team, so this glass of wine, I should respect you." β
Shen Congyun smiled: "Then how can you toast each other." After saying that, he drank the wine down.
Yang Zongming did the same, after drinking, he hurriedly beckoned Shen Congyun to eat.
