Wu Shi and Wu Hua worked for two years after graduating from elementary school, and then left as soldiers one after another, and Wu Liang separated from each other. At this time, Wu Liang saw that the burden on the family was gradually reduced, his father was recovering well, and he could go home to serve his own land during the night, although he still had younger brothers and sisters who went to school, he could help his mother take care of the housework, and the second brother could also properly fund the family. He saw his father's years of hard work to support the family

Yes, if you stay in the countryside for a long time, you will not be able to escape the fate of looking for bean bags along the ditch for the rest of your life. It just so happened that the newly built pulp mill in the county recruited temporary workers from urban and rural areas, and Wu Liang and the educated youths in Tunli left Tuweizi in response, and he put Tong Hui and his two younger sons in Tuweizi, naturally with his parents and siblings to take care of, and people were relieved to go to Tuweizi. He was thinking about Brother Big Mouth again, and ran to Big Elm Village to make an appointment, at this time Big Mouth was already obsessed with the inverted fish and started a small business, and he didn't move if he was in love with his family.

Wu Liang and a group of young people came to the factory to report with a sense of longing, and there were board newspapers on the wall of the labor department, and there were more than a dozen types of work on the construction site, such as carpentry, rebar workers, bricklayers, electricians, and cement workers. The people in the labor department asked everyone one by one what they had done in the past and what expertise they had, and Wu Liang had no skills, so he was arranged to be a cement worker. One yuan and seven jiao and five cents a day, equivalent to three days of food, although tired, but there are hours, much lighter than farm work, and the income is cash, which is opened monthly. Wu Liang quickly showed his unique talent among the temporary workers, which attracted the attention and attention of the squad leader, and was always arranged to the key place. The technical work at the front desk, such as the vibrator, arranged for Wu Liang to go, and Wu Liang recommended it to others, and the squad leader arranged for him to load the materials in the background. Each type of work is an assembly line operation, which is very closely connected, and no link can be left behind, and it must be kept up. Wu Liang went to the backstage to load, the first use is a flat spade, lightweight, the river stone shovel is not much, he is used to using a big spade when pulling sand in the countryside, and he is willing to work hard, so he asked the squad leader to use a big spade, the squad leader said, people are not willing to use, the construction site people call the king eight ends, and the end is not moving. He said, just use this special energy. So he brought a big spade, and although it was big and heavy, it was a spade that was a spade when it was used. A cart is full in a few clicks, and the other loading materials are also replaced with large shovels, and the speed of loading has pushed the cement, the cart, and the vibrating ones have been accelerated, and the workload and image progress of the cement class have been highlighted all of a sudden, which has attracted the attention of the section chief and the technical system. Wu Liang is capable and organized, and he has gained more and more attention and preference from the squad leader, and has also begun to attract the attention of the brigade. The squad leader knew that he had worked as an accountant in the countryside and asked him to follow him to receive his salary. The other teams who came to receive their wages counted them in piles there, but he took the bundles together and put them in the squad leader's pocket without counting them. The squad leader was anxious when he saw it, why didn't you order a little? Wu Liang said that the money from the bank does not need to be checked, just checked zero. The accountant also said that you can check it, and you won't admit it when you get out of this house. The accounting cashier looked at Wu Liang's behavior and felt strange, how did he know the rules of Ludao Bank? I saw that he was done in a few minutes, and he stamped and left, and others didn't understand it. He said, "I'm responsible for the problem." After going back, the salaries of more than 30 people in the class were divided one by one, and each copy was put on a note with the name of the person who wrote it, and the squad leader said suspiciously, why don't you check it again? He said that everyone must order it by himself when he receives it. It took less than half an hour to send it and sign it. The old squad leader admired it and gave him a grimace, saying that he was shrewd, sensible, and could do things. In the past, every time I sent money, I was very troublesome, and I always made mistakes, and every time I was busy until seven or eight o'clock in the evening, this time I came back from work and sent it to eat, and everyone who sent money and received it was easy. The next time the salary is paid, Wu Liang asked Tuweizi to follow Jiang Wen, who came with him, and the old squad leader doubted, can he do it? Wu Liang said, I recommend it, that's right. Catch up with the labor protection, heatstroke prevention and cooling, that is, two taels of tea leaves and two catties of sugar per person, Wu Liang still asked Jiang Wen, who graduated from high school and worked as a custodian in Tuweizi, to get it, Jiang Wen went and stood beside the distributor and stared at the scale, Wu Liang looked at him and pulled him aside and said with a smile, don't be so careful, it makes people feel too careful, you didn't see what I did, I didn't see anything, if you want to do that, people will do the same to you. Do things with atmosphere. Besides, how much worse can those things be between the highs and lows? Wu Liang became the core of the class except for the squad leader, and everyone listened to him when the squad leader was away.

In the summer of this year, the dam repair task assigned by the city's flood control headquarters to the construction company fell to Wu Liang's company, and the deputy company commander took the cement squad and plastering squad, and Wu Liang led more than 20 young men in the cement squad without old workers. When they arrived at the designated area, the deputy company commander drew out the task section according to the head. The construction site is full of mud, can't pull out the legs, Wu Liang led the class simply threw off the boots and bare feet to do more and more cheerful, including 9 people brought out by the soil fence, called No. 1 to No. 1, the wind is in full swing, showing the vitality of young people, the progress is fast, and soon surpasses the plastering class. Although the conditions are too difficult, the food is enough to eat steamed buns casually, and sometimes you can stew a pot of vermicelli pork, and everyone eats it with a mouth full of oil. The construction site is in the meadow and by the river, the mosquitoes are up, although the tent is set up, and everyone is given a mosquito hat and mosquito net, but it is still impossible to prevent the mosquito attack, especially at night and there is no electricity, and the mosquitoes are buzzing. There was an eighteen-year-old young man who couldn't sleep and cried because he was bitten by mosquitoes, Wu Liang walked over to help him open the mosquito net, and then slowly put the mosquito net down and tucked the corners and corners. Wu Liang said to everyone, this is really not a ghost place for people to stay, let's speed up the progress, don't sleep at noon, work again at night, and leave when we're done. His proposal was warmly responded to by everyone, and he worked in full swing, and after finishing his own work, he helped the plastering class for a whole day, and brought the class up, and the seven-day work was completed in four days, and he also formed a deep friendship with Fuqun, the squad leader of the plastering class. The deputy company commander told the truck that the food delivery car would come to pick up people on the morning of the fifth day. When they arrived at Nenshui Railway Station and waited for the train, Liu Chun and they bought popsicles to eat, and a small person who asked for food reached out to ask for it, Liu Chun played a prank, let the little person sit next to him and buy it after eating, and after eating for a while, Haishan said to Wu Liang, you go and talk about it, don't eat other people's children. At this time, I saw that the child was shivering when he ate, so Wu Liang walked over and asked the child, are you still eating? The little begger had already eaten ice balls and ice cubes, and shook his hand when he heard his question. Wu Liang said to Liu Chun, don't mess around, don't make an accident. After going back, the cement squad won a good reputation, and the company commander praised others for being good, capable, and organizational.

Soon, the company sent them to the construction site in a different place to support the three teams, and Wu Liang's cement team was more than 20 people waiting for more than 20 bricklayers, and the manpower seemed to be very tight. A frame car can be loaded with seventy-two bricks at a time, Li Xiang, who went to the countryside to Tuwei, is usually agile, he was a high jumper when he was in school, and the jumping pole posture is a particularly beautiful sword style, he gradually increased the size of a car, at most a car was loaded with 132 pieces, it looks like a small brick stack, and when entering the house, he has to go up and down the springboard, because he is skilled in not overturning and reversing, the squad leader and company commander looked surprised and said, so much! They said, "Either you can't provide it." Fifteen bungalows were completed in a month. After laying bricks and carpenters, Wu Liang was arranged to go to the tile, and for the first time to do this work, he was praised again, saying that he could do his class, and he was praised by the bricklayer masters, and the leaders also respected him. He sometimes wrote scripts for the radio studio and held criticism meetings to speak on behalf of the company, which led the activities of the first brigade to be carried out vigorously. The company set up a big criticism team, and he was transferred out of production, but he didn't feel honored, he felt boring.

At this time, the company commander found the brigade and said that the old squad leader of the cement squad had serious rheumatism and even had difficulty walking, and the political squad leader was drawn to the children's school as a teacher, and asked the company to send Wu Liang back, and when he returned, the company designated him as the squad leader. At this time, Wu Liang's family had moved to Rich Town. The cement class he led worked hard and had a good reputation, which satisfied the leaders. But every day when eating, the person in charge of labor discipline found that the people who lined up in advance to buy food were all from his class, so they said that their class worked well and had poor discipline. In particular, many people in their class have become families, their homes are in Furao Town, the pulp mill is 10 miles away from the county seat, they commute every day, and no one participates in the group at night. Gradually formed the impression that the group of people led by Wu Liang worked hard, and the old Wu was good, but the political workers had different opinions, saying that Wu Liang was bad, playing duplicity, buying good at both ends, spoiling the bottom, just working regardless of discipline or study, too loose, and not listening. Wu Liang was also very annoyed when he heard the discussion, and gathered his gang to lose his temper, I don't believe that I can't cure you, and I will arrange the work until 10 o'clock in the evening in the future, and see that you are still busy going back, if you don't want to do it, you will leave. In the future, the team meeting must wait for the meeting to finish before leaving, and the team will learn that you will leave, and I can provide convenience. When he said this, everyone was somewhat restrained, but the commuting continued unabated. He reluctantly found the leader of the brigade and said, we people are from the countryside, in the countryside is the main labor force, 12 minutes a day, now to the county seat, 45 yuan a month, not only to eat and drink, but also to feed the wife and children, can you, only 15 yuan per month to the family, and there is no household food relationship, every meal has to be calculated, the dishes are not counted, pickles can not afford to eat, can only eat fermented bean curd, 4 cents have to be calculated to spend, commuting can be eaten at home in the morning and evening, save 20 yuan every month to solve the family's food and drink. You don't know, what are we doing when we people run home from work? Take a flat shovel to the station and get on the train, peel the bark of a log tree for firewood, and wait for the train to leave before jumping off. After hearing this, the leaders suddenly realized that when they talked about him again at the general branch meeting, they talked about their livelihood difficulties, and everyone expressed their understanding and sympathy, saying that he was a duplicitous political worker, and said that Wu Liang must be the best person if not the worst person, and thus changed their attitude towards him.

This time, the production team leader assigned Wu Liang a task to hit the cement floor in the workshop, and the team leader asked him, how about seven days? Wu Liang looked at the area and thought about it, three days. The team leader was taken aback and shook his head in disbelief. Wu Liang said, look at it. He led everyone to work overtime, it was just flying, everyone also felt comfortable and comfortable, he mainly pushed the first car, it was simply rushed to the springboard head car out of the gang to go more than a meter, and then pulled the car back, a car of ash fell down along the inertia, the production team leader saw such a scene is simply stunned, immediately called the planner and statistician, the captain also rushed to the scene after listening, several people stood there as if observing. People come and go, loading and unloading carts shuttle on the narrow springboard, but there is no collision, and it was completed in three days, creating a construction miracle. Another day, the cadres of the organ joined his class to follow the work, a day to complete 300 tons of cement pouring tasks, Wu Liang knew that the key is to pour cement at the top of the mixer, arrange two people to open the place, one person is too tired, he stood there by himself and was busy, one person poured 280 tons of cement a day, how many bags? 560 bags. Cement bags are also required to be recycled in good condition. At the end of the day, Wu Liang pushed the cart to send the cement bag back to the material group, and was seen by the secretary of the general branch of the brigade, and asked in surprise, what's wrong with you? Wu Liang didn't care, he naturally knew that his head and face were covered with cement, and only a mouth could reveal a mouthful of white teeth. He replied, "There will be a battle today, and I will be responsible for pouring cement." The secretary hurriedly said with concern, you wash quickly, why didn't you wear a mask? Wu Liang said, our Lao Bao does not have this. The secretary listened to it and said dissatisfied, why is there no mask in the cement class? The people in the material group should say that it is the material department, and only the oilers who wear masks are the oilers. The secretary listened to the urging and said, you quickly take two masks to him. The person in the material group said, that is, you said, or I won't take it, there are clear regulations. The secretary of the general branch met him at this time. The team leader held a meeting, and everyone was over 50 years old when they sat together, why did a young man come here, what was he doing? After inquiring, I learned that Lu Dao was the squad leader of the cement class, and in a large team of hundreds of people, he was the only one who was really the squad leader on the front line, and he was the best team leader.

At the end of this year, catch up with the restructuring of the employment system, and temporary workers will be regularized. It was only when the formalities were completed that the leaders of the brigade discovered that Wu Liang did not have a relationship with the grain of the urban household registration, so he was naturally not eligible to enjoy this policy. He felt helpless himself, the team was very anxious when he heard his situation, and felt sorry for him, the captain sighed, how did you get mixed up with this pile of people? Wu Liang said helplessly, my life is miserable. When the captain heard this, he simply said, "You have to take care of this matter." After saying that, he instructed someone to run this matter. Looking for the county food department and the county government, he invited the section chief to kill a pig, eat a big meal, and each person carried ten catties of meat when he left. Because Wu Liang and more than 40 temporary workers from the countryside need to apply for household registration and grain relations. The food department brought a message, saying that the pipes in their family dormitories were broken and needed to be repaired, and the captain and secretary of the brigade heard about it and promised that they needed to solve what they needed, plugging, slipknots, pipes, and manual maintenance, all inclusive. In this way, more than 400 people were turned into regulars, because they waited for Wu Liang and others to push it for half a month. Wu Liang was so happy when he got the grain and coal book of the household registration, for the first time he took his book to buy noodles, rice, oil and meat, and vegetables and wine, and returned home with a large bag of food and drink. Wu Liang's fate has taken a gratifying turn, thinking about his family, going home during the New Year's holidays, and being particularly concerned about the study of the sixth brother, he sees that the sixth brother is a reading material, no matter what the future holds, it is hope to be able to work hard to study, the two brothers look very similar, but the temperament is a little different, Wu Liang is good at befriending, everywhere is a group of people are lively, at this time Wu Wei is just a boring study.
