Time flies. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Zhang Feng went north in early October, and when he came back, it was already the beginning of December, and the time of more than 20 days passed quickly, and it was about to reach the end of the year.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, the atmosphere of the New Year has been revealed in the area of Songjiang Prefecture, and some ordinary people have also found that this year seems to be different from usual, not only is it a lot more lively, but also some condolence teams have appeared, and some soldiers have carried pork and rice, and have gone to some poor people who are too poor to open the pot.

In the east of the city, under the old camphor tree, He Sanbao's house.

Seeing that the Chinese New Year is about to be celebrated, I see that all families are lively, especially those who work in the Oriental Textile Factory or the Oriental Soap Factory, and it is even more lively, tearing cloth to make new clothes, buying rice and meat, and having a festive and lively New Year.

"Hey......" He Sanbao frowned and sighed, feeling sad in his heart, natural and man-made disasters are always inevitable, and He Sanbao's family is almost the same.

A few years ago, He Sanbao's wife fell ill and is still lying in bed and needs to be taken care of.

He Sanbao gave birth to three daughters, the oldest is only fifteen years old, the least is less than ten years old, and He Sanbao, who is over forty years old, is even thinking that next year, he will tell his eldest daughter about an in-law.

The Chinese New Year is coming in a few days, He Sanbao shook his head, uncovered his own rice tank, the rice tank was basically empty, He Sanbao was sad, gritted his teeth, and took out a few coins from under the pillow to scatter the silver, which He San kept for his wife to take medicine and see a doctor.

Taking out half of the scattered silver from these few coins, He Sanbao is going to buy a little rice, preferably weighing half a catty of meat, and no matter what, he has to match it for a year.

He Sanbao's youngest daughter, when she saw her father holding the silver, couldn't help but widen her eyes, "Father, do we have meat to eat?" Isn't it? ”

March doesn't know the taste of meat, what I want to eat most is meat, eight or nine years old has understood a lot of things, the little girl knows that the New Year is approaching, her father is mostly going to buy meat.

He Sanbao gently touched his little daughter's head, and said kindly: "Yin Yin, there will be meat to eat soon, I'll go cut the meat." ”

He Guihua is He Sanbao's eldest daughter, seeing her father preparing to go out, her heart hurts, He Guihua knows that this bit of silver was earned by her father as a coolie, and it was left for her mother to see a doctor.

He Guihua said: "Father, this is the money for my mother's medicine, we don't eat meat, we ......."

He Sanbao's heart was sour, what a sensible daughter, although He Sanbao was sour in his heart, he didn't want to expose it in front of his daughter, and said with a kind smile on his face: "Osmanthus, I also left a little silver to catch medicine, and after the New Year, I will immediately find something to do, and I will be able to make money immediately." ”

Because He Sanbao is over forty years old and old, he has not been able to work in the factory, and usually earns a little money by doing odd jobs or working hard.

He Guihua said: "Father, after the New Year, I will also go to work, I will go to the Oriental Textile Factory to work, earn more than one or two silver a month, I will support you." ”

He Sanbao was relieved in his heart, "Osmanthus, I am happy to have this filial piety, it is not easy to enter the Oriental Textile Factory, and besides, it is not good for you to show up at a girl's house." ”

He Guihua said: "What's wrong with a girl's family, I heard that there are many girls like me in the Oriental Textile Factory, they can do it, and I can do it." ”

There are some girls in the Oriental Textile Factory, but they are not more than fifteen, at least sixteen or seventeen years old, and there are not many of them.

He Sanbao said: "No, no, you are still too young, and I have never heard that Dongfang Textile Factory will recruit people to do things after the New Year." ”

He Guihua said happily: "Father, I have heard that after the New Year, the Oriental Textile Factory will recruit hundreds of people, saying that it is to expand the scale of production, in addition, I am not small, after the New Year, I am sixteen years old, and I can just enter the factory to do things." ”

He Sanbao's father and daughter were arguing about whether to enter the factory, there was a movement outside the door, and then a familiar voice came in, and He Sanbao knew that it was the voice of Aunt Wang next door.

"Sanbao, open the door quickly, Mr. Zhang sent someone to deliver something to you."

He Sanbao wondered in his heart, what kind of things to send for the New Year, in addition, Zhang Zongbing himself is not familiar with it, he is a high-ranking general soldier, he is a bitter haha, where will there be any connection.

But because it was Aunt Wang next door, He Sancai still opened the door, and as soon as the door opened, Aunt Wang came in with three soldiers in army green uniforms, led by a sergeant, and two others, one carrying a bag of rice, and the other carrying several catties of meat.

As soon as the leading sergeant came in, he looked enthusiastic and said loudly and enthusiastically: "Hello, hello, we are from the condolence team, this is fifty catties of rice, this is three catties of pork, one catty of beef, and one catty of mutton." ”

After speaking, the soldier put the bag of rice next to the rice jar in the corner of the house, and saw that it was rice and pork again, He Sanbao couldn't believe it, this is for me, no!

Is pie in the sky!

He Sanbao was stunned, and even pinched himself secretly, until a burst of pain came, and He Sanbao knew that this was not a dream.

Aunt Wang said: "Sanbao, what are you still doing in a daze, hurry up and pick up things, Liu Soldier is not tired of carrying a few catties of meat." ”

He Sanbao, who came back to his senses, quickly took over these catties of meat, and said in disbelief: "This... Is this really for me? ”

The sergeant smiled and said, "These are all for you, the chief soldier knows that you are in difficulty, and has sent a lot of condolence teams to condolence in and out of the city, and families like you in difficulty have sent food and meat." ”

"Oh, there's meat to eat!"

He Sanbao's youngest daughter clapped her hands happily and jumped up, and it could be seen that the little girl had not eaten meat for a long time, not only jumped and jumped happily, but also looked at those catties of meat with bright eyes.

He Sanbao was greatly moved in his heart, and muttered: "Mr. Zhang is really a good person!" ”

At the beginning of the 26th lunar calendar, more than 1,000 soldiers made cameo appearances as members of the condolence team, groups of three or five, holding grain and meat, to comfort the poor families in the Songjiang Prefecture area, a total of 2,000 households.

For a time, Zhang Feng won the hearts of a large number of people, and even some ordinary people put up Bodhisattvas and immortal cards to thank Zhang Feng.

Last time in Langfang, Zhang Feng seized a large amount of grain and a large number of livestock, and a large part of these things were given to the people living in poverty in Tianjin Wei, Songjiang Mansion and other areas.

"Mr. Zhang is really a living bodhisattva!"

"Yes, the old Tang family, so poor that they can't even open the pot, seeing that the New Year is a problem, Mr. Zhang sent someone to send dozens of catties of grain to the door, and also sent several catties of meat."

"Not only is the old Tang family, the old man next door to us is so poor that he almost can't drink the wild vegetables, and Mr. Zhang also sent people to deliver food and pork."

"Mr. Zhang is really the savior of our people, a good person!"

"I am seventy years old, I have lived so much, I have never seen such a good official as Mr. Zhang!"

“…….”

Approaching the Chinese New Year, many people in Songjiang Prefecture are hotly discussed, and in this heated discussion, they are full of gratitude.

General Military Office.

Wang Chaoyong is reporting to Zhang Feng, "The general soldiers, including Shanghai, Qingpu and other counties, have visited a total of 2,306 families, distributed 1,209 stones of grain, slaughtered 138 fat pigs, and ...... sheep."

After listening to Wang Chaoyong's report, Zhang Feng nodded reassuringly, so many things will be distributed, this year's New Year, there should not be a single person starving to death in the Songjiang Mansion.

After listening to Wang Chaoyong's report, Zhang Feng said to Yang Shenghai next to him: "Old Yang, are you ready for the dividends?" ”

Yang Shenghai said: "It's ready, everything is ready, and we will start to give you dividends tomorrow." ”

Tomorrow is the twenty-ninth day of the lunar calendar, the day before the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve.

At the beginning, the major shareholders of the Oriental Textile Factory invested more than 100,000 taels of silver, and the soap factory issued 400,000 shares, according to the agreement, dividends were distributed once every six months.

At this time, I believe that many people can't wait, because the Chinese New Year is coming soon, and some people must be watching the dividends.
