Chapter 057 The production team kills the New Year's pig

After talking with Guo Hai and others of the Donggou Brigade, Yang Xia's attitude was casual and sincere. Casual means to go with the flow, what should be said, what is suitable for what to say, all said, some things, maybe more suitable for a rural village like Donggou, but Yang Xia did not say it, because the time is not yet. Speaking sincerely, it is because Donggou is Yang Xia's hometown after all, and if possible, Yang Xia also hopes that Donggou can become richer and better.

However, Yang Xia knew that the future of Donggou was basically limited, and the fate of thousands of villages in China was the same, if it was not annexed by large-scale farms and became part of the big farms, then he could only be a self-sufficient small village forever, and even in later generations, it was still a rather dilapidated small village, even if it was already beautiful at that time, but the village construction was very chaotic and there was no planning.

In the territory of the Republic, such villages have no more than two roles, one provides thousands of acres of cultivated area for Chinese agriculture, and the other provides at least 1,000 low-end laborers for China's industrialization.

If Yang Xia has any views on the village where he was born and raised, his biggest opinion is that he hopes that this village can be planned in the future construction and make it a new village in the real sense. It is a pity that the construction of the new countryside recommended by the government in the previous life was long overdue.

It's just that Yang Xia also knows that although he has sincerely told a few brigade cadres so much, it is basically doomed that there will be no result, because even if these brigade cadres really get things done, they will not be able to resist the historical trend of contracting production to households three years later. Ninety percent of the collective economy and assets in China's rural areas have been turned into private ownership in this round of contracted production.

Therefore, in terms of its essence, Yang Xia is powerless to change the appearance of the Donggou Brigade, even as a reborn.

Yang Xia couldn't do anything, but Jia Xiaobao gradually got on the right track.

The time when Yang Xia fooled Jia Xiaobao was January 18, and in this year, the Spring Festival was January 18, so Jia Xiaobao seemed to feel that time was very tight, so he went to the county public security bureau to ask for leave the next day, and then got on the car and train and ran to the Northern Military Region.

Some people say that the Spring Festival transportation in China originated after the reform and opening up, but in fact, this is an illusion. Although there were no migrant workers before the reform and opening up, a considerable part of the country's industrial workers, such as construction workers, coal miners, railway workers, forestry workers, etc., worked in one place, while their wives and children were in the countryside.

When Jia Xiaobao got on the train, he encountered the Spring Festival, but fortunately, he was from west to east and then to north, which was basically the opposite of the way of the Spring Festival, so this guy actually bought a hard sleeper ticket, slept in the car for three days and three nights, and then arrived at the garrison of the Northern Military Region, and then took the car for another three days and two nights before arriving at the regiment where he was enlisted.

At this time, there are only two days before the Spring Festival, and there are only 20 days before the start of the self-defense counterattack war in Annam.

Jia Xiaobao didn't tell a lie, he did have a relationship in the army. Zheng Shan, the commander of the 132nd Regiment of the Northern Military Region, was his buddy, at that time, this buddy was the company commander of the reconnaissance company, and Jia Xiaobao was the deputy company commander. And the real situation is that when he met with the enemy, the enemy saw that there was an officer on the Huaxia side in the forward position, and he wanted to be unfavorable to Zheng Shan when he raised his gun, but unfortunately the opponent's movements were a little slow. In other words, in a sense, Jia Xiaobao saved Zheng Shan's life.

"We're going to fight the monkeys from the south?" After meeting, Jia Xiaobao asked directly.

"Yes, how do you know?" Zheng Shan asked rhetorically.

"As long as it's not blind and deaf, who doesn't know?"

"You are here for this, but does this matter have anything to do with you?"

"Let's take a look at this first." Jia Xiaobao said, handing over the relevant materials written by Yang Xia to Zheng Shan as they were, as for the signature, it was still blank at this time.

An hour later, Zheng Shan raised his head: "Second Master Bao, although your kid's brain is very bad, but this thing was not written by you." ”

"You don't care who wrote it, you just say whether it's written correctly or not, whether it's valuable or not."

"This is more than valuable! Our troops have also analyzed the characteristics of Annan's little devils, but they haven't found a good way, and this one you brought is exactly the right prescription! ”

"Since it's useful, then I'll use this recipe to change a place to participate in the war, right?"

"Say you're smart, you're so stupid! Second Master Bao, you didn't even figure out which times the troops participated in the battle this time, so you ran to this great northwest, do you think that the soldiers we are used to staying in the north are suitable for fighting in the jungle in the south? ”

"What then?"

"Don't worry, I'll do this, of course, whether you can go to the battlefield or not, it's up to me to decide."

"How do you do that? Don't succeed in the operation, forget about your brother. Jia Xiaobao was always a little uneasy.

"My father's name is Zheng Huan, and he can directly meet the supreme chief, this, you should know. By the way, who wrote this thing, you have to tell the truth, otherwise, when the superiors investigate, everyone will not be able to speak. ”

"This suggestion was written by a high school freshman in my district, don't be surprised, this high school freshman is far from as simple as you think, his name is Yang Xia, he often publishes prose and poetry in the top newspapers and magazines in the country, and his grades are full marks in science, he is definitely the smartest person I have ever met. He was able to write these things only on the basis of public information in the newspapers. If he had a certain military quality, I really don't know how rebellious this suggestion would be! ”

"Well, I didn't think of such a person as simple. You sit down and I'll make an internal phone call and send a fax. "Zheng Shan and Jia Xiaobao belong to a lifelong friendship, so they get along very casually.

At this point, even if Yang Xia knew, he could only sigh at the rebirth's rebellion, and no one thought that Bao Erye, the director of the Chiquan District Police Station, would be a figure who could reach the sky. And the relationship that connects the head of a police station with the supreme chief is very simple, that is, the word "comrade-in-arms".

Yang Xia handed over the suggestion to Bao Erye, in fact, he wanted to get rid of the relationship with this matter, a teenager in the first year of high school, you can understand, understand social conditions, and understand life, but you actually understand military affairs, which seems a little different in this era. From the beginning of writing this suggestion, Yang Xia is reporting the idea of "doing your best, obeying the destiny of heaven" in action, seeing Jia Xiaobao, Yang Xia's mind is lively, Jia Xiaobao has worked in the army, and feels that he misses the life of the army very much, so he gave birth to the idea of using Bao Erye, I did my best, of course, he also took the opportunity to get rid of the burden, and the development of things since then has nothing to do with him.

Speaking of which, Yang Xia handled this matter too child's play, with a bit of a "playful" flavor, in order to prevent his name from appearing in the official or public eye, he actually adopted an irresponsible approach.

Therefore, after Bao Er Ye got the advice, what he did and didn't do, and even if this person was still working at the Chiquan District Police Station, Yang Xia didn't care.

It's not impossible to hand over this suggestion to Bao Erye, but Yang Xia at least has to send two letters to the two units he planned before, the county armed forces department and the military district staff department, but Yang Xia didn't send it.

Second Master Bao set off on the 19th, arrived at the 132nd Regiment of the Northern Military Region on the 25th, and the 27th was the Chinese New Year's Eve of the lunar calendar, and during this time, Yang Xia conceived and wrote his "King of Shu" while experiencing the taste of the Spring Festival.

In later generations, almost all people said that now the Chinese New Year is becoming more and more devoid of the New Year. Yes, after living a rich life, everyone lives in a high-rise building, even if the door is not known to who, the relationship between people is indifferent, speaking of which everyone has a few friends of friends, but during the New Year, they have to spend with their own children, lonely three or five people, plus the city is not allowed to fire fireworks, where is the taste of the New Year.

This era is relatively poor, but the flavor of the year is strong, from the twenty-third year of the month to send the stove king Bodhisattva, almost every day there is something to do, a day a trick, although the production team has to work to the twenty-eighth of the month, but after entering the month of wax, the labor intensity is significantly reduced, the labor time is significantly shortened, because of the relationship of the New Year, the faces of the neighbors, there are more smiles.

At this time, a family can not afford to kill the New Year pig, but the production team can kill the New Year pig, Caijiawan production team, every year during the New Year is to kill two pigs, each person can get an average of 8 taels of meat, this is socialism, the meat is divided according to the head. Large households can divide four or five catties, such as Yang Xia's family, and small families are in trouble, for example, two people can only get about 1.6 catties, and even a piece of "piece of vegetables" is not enough.

The so-called "piece of dish" refers to the gift needed to go back to the parents' house in the first month of the year, generally based on about two catties, of course, the bigger and heavier the better, if you can carry a pig's hind leg, it is naturally the heaviest gift, however, it seems to be sent to the thigh after hunting, only to marry the daughter-in-law that time.

Guo Hai and other brigade cadres left the Yang family the next day, the production team killed the pig, this year's situation is slightly better, the Yang family can get 5 catties and a half of meat, when the pig is killed, when the meat is divided, Yang Xia is also like other children and teenagers, standing and watching from afar, two or three hundred people around the two pigs to be killed, starting from the children who can not walk in their arms, to the seventy or eighty years old who need help when walking, have come to the scene.

Whether this scene comes from the custom of sharing spoils after hunting in primitive society, Yang Xia does not know, but hundreds of people looked at the two pigs with blank eyes, and then watched the pig being stabbed twice, from life to death, from black to white, Yang Xia could not tell whether this was a sad or warm feeling.

Perhaps, this scene should be defined as warm. Because farmers have long been numb to poverty, and it must be a small happiness to be able to have meat and meat to eat during the Chinese New Year.
