Chapter XXVII

After returning to the company, I continued to devote myself to my work, while assisting the company commander in completing various tasks, and on the other hand, I was also busy with the work of the deputy company commander. At this time, I will also complain, but since Yang Tian was transferred, I have no one to talk to, and some words are inconvenient to say to the soldiers, so I can only hold them in my heart. I can only enlighten myself repeatedly in my heart, do more and more, and now that I have done the work of a company commander, I will do it if I really have the opportunity to become a company commander in the future.

However, the deputy company commander also has a lot of tasks, not only to constantly check the hygiene and improve the company's hygiene standards, but also to manage the logistics. The best thing to say is logistics work, and the direct point is to farm, raise pigs, and cook. Fortunately, it is winter, and the earth does not need to be planted for the time being, but the pigs are still alive and the people are still alive. Pigs need to be eaten, and people need to be eaten.

Every day, I go to the barn twice and to the canteen twice. Go to the pig house to check how well the pig house is cleaned, and see how the pigs eat and sleep. Go to the cafeteria to see how the canteen is cleaned and how the cooking class is doing.

Our canteen is a little shabby, leaky in winter, a little cold, we have to stick plastic sheets to keep warm, every time we eat in the canteen, we have some cold hands, so, in winter, we eat very fast. Although our canteen is a bit older, our barn is very new. It is said that it cost 100,000 yuan, which is quite luxurious.

The pig house is divided into three rooms, the outermost one is a foyer, there are some tools for cleaning the pig house and the work clothes of the breeder, the middle one is a warehouse, where the feed for the pigs is placed, the innermost is the pig house, nearly 80 square meters of area, separated into four fences.

Every time I went in, I counted them one by one, and the outermost pen was the piglets, which had four; The second fence is slightly larger, still four-headed, the third fence is larger, with three heads, and the last fence is the largest, with three heads, a total of fourteen heads. This amount has caught up with a small pig farm, and the first time I went, I was shocked, and I asked the breeder, how do you raise so much? It's not less. The farmer of the company is called Liu Jianbo, a native of Sichuan, who is quite small and speaks with a Sichuan accent, which is quite interesting. He told me that the number of fourteen heads is not enough, and according to the requirements of the superiors, according to the number of people in our company, we should raise fifteen heads, and there is still one head missing. I was completely stunned by the number request, and I couldn't even figure out if we were a soldier or a pig farm here. I think that as soldiers, we should do a good job in training, so that we can pull it out and win the war; no matter how good the vegetables are, what is the use of the pigs being fattened, and can we still use the pigs as guns and cannons when we are fighting? What is that kind of vegetable pig for the purpose, I am very confused.

I asked, "Jianbo, have you ever raised pigs at home before?" ”

Liu Jianbo replied: "I haven't raised it, I came to the army to learn." ”

"Then you came here to be a soldier, but you learned to raise pigs, don't you have any ideas in your heart?" I asked Liu Jianbo.

He said: "I didn't think about it so much, I did whatever the leader told me to do, let me train and train, let the pigs raise pigs, anyway, I will contribute to the company." Liu Jianbo's words were not long, but they made me fall into deep thought, and I felt all kinds of tangled contradictions in my heart, and this is indeed the case; although the central work of the troops is training and fighting wars, things in reality have never been so absolute, and if we don't care about other work, we should go to training, and this is also unrealistic. Anyway, they obey the leader, and they do whatever the leader tells them to do.

After thinking clearly, I simply stopped being entangled, and secretly laughed in my heart that I was worried about nothing, the army is so big, there are so many people, so many leaders, I am just an ordinary grassroots deputy company commander, what's the point of thinking so much? It can be said that it is meaningless, and it cannot change any reality. Since you are in the army, you just have to do what you have to do, and you can do what the leader tells you to do.

Since then, although he is still very disgusted with growing vegetables and raising pigs, at least on the surface, he will still do the work assigned by the leader seriously.

After accompanying the company commander out for a drink that night and came back, he heard that Deputy Regiment Commander Wang was coming to the company for inspection, saying that it was almost the Spring Festival and that he would go to the grassroots level to have a look. Deputy Regiment Commander Wang is the leader in charge of logistics in the regiment, and when he went to the company to inspect the company, his favorite places to go were the vegetable patch and the pig house.

The next day, I threw myself on the barn. Although I had just become a deputy company commander and did not know much about logistics work, the chief of the department was an old secretary named Li Cheng, who greeted many leaders and knew what kind of standards should be grasped. I have been studying next to Secretary Li Cheng.

I followed Li Cheng to the pig house, and saw Liu Jianbo brushing the ground of the pig house, Li Cheng said to Liu Jianbo again, and when the ground is brushed, the pig will be brushed and flushed, so that the pig will look energetic. Although it is winter, because it is a luxury pig barn, the temperature inside is more suitable, it is not cold at all, and the water is also lukewarm. In order to truly learn and understand logistics work, I did not hold a leadership stand, but waved with my hands behind my back. I rolled up my sleeves and trouser legs to work with Liu Jianbo.

Until dinner, the pig house is completely cleaned, after the end, I regard myself as a leader, from the perspective of the leader walked around and looked at it, the pig house is full of praise, I imitate the tone of the leader and said to myself, your company this pig is really good, this pig looks clean and energetic, look at the pig do not need to look at your company officers and soldiers to know that the spirit of your company officers and soldiers must not be bad.

After saying that, I laughed alone in the pig barn, and the laughing pigs were startled.

The next day, Deputy Regiment Commander Wang came to the company in a car, and after getting off the car, he didn't enter the house, and walked directly to the pig house, the company commander Zhao Yuming accompanied him, and the company commander gave me a look, I immediately understood the meaning, and quickly followed.

Company commander Zhao Yuming introduced to Deputy Regiment Commander Wang: "This is Gao Xiaofei, the deputy company commander of the company. ”

After listening to the introduction of the company commander, Deputy Regiment Commander Wang turned his head and said expressionlessly: "Well, I heard that I performed well in the year-end assessment, and when I became the deputy company commander, I also took good care of logistics." The words were words of encouragement, but the face was cold.

I hurriedly said, "Yes! We must study and grasp it seriously. ”

Deputy head Wang took the lead into the pig house, only to see the pig house inside and outside the three tidy up, no matter the corner or the ground, there is no ash at all, go to the innermost, more than a dozen pigs regardless of size are clean and white fat, deputy head Wang saw the appearance of the pig, finally showed a smile, nodded with satisfaction, he smiled and said: "Your company this pig is really good, this pig looks clean and energetic, look at the pigs you raise do not need to look at your company officers and soldiers to know that your company officers and soldiers are definitely not bad." ”

Listening to Deputy Head Wang's words, I almost couldn't help laughing, what I just pretended to be a leader said yesterday, and what Deputy Head Wang said today is not a word bad, it seems that I will definitely be able to be a leader in the future.

Coming out of the pig house, Deputy Regiment Commander Wang really didn't enter the house as he said, just said a few words to the company commander instructor in the courtyard and left.

Watching Deputy Regiment Commander Wang's car go away, even our company commander had a good temper and scolded: ", who is the pig to scold?" You don't have to fucking look at people when you look at the pigs, it's the fucking pig leader. "The company commander's words surprised me, how can the company commander's tone sound like an old company commander, is it the position of the company commander that makes people have such a temperament? My mind was full of questions.

After a while, I asked the company commander, "Company commander, this deputy regiment commander Wang doesn't look like he came to check, just stay for ten minutes and leave?" ”

"What kind of inspection, let me tell you, there are many leaders who say that they go to the grassroots level to inspect in the name of inspection, but in fact, they come out to play in the name of inspection, and the deputy head of the Wang Regiment will definitely go to Muhe, and there are arrangements." The company commander whispered to me.

"It's good to be a leader, I said why everyone wants to be a leader." I thought to myself.
