Chapter 504: Southern Yunnan Menglong
After delivering the letter at Chaohu Farm, he didn't stay long and hurried to the next destination non-stop.
Before, in Huangshan and Lujiang, I didn't feel that it was getting poorer and poorer to go west from the provincial capital.
Now it doesn't feel so obvious, after all, in the current planned economy, everything depends on the state's rationing, and the good or bad are roughly within a certain range.
After the reform and opening up, other places gradually became richer, and the development of the old revolutionary base area near the Dabie Mountain in western Anhui was still very slow, and it was still a national key poverty alleviation area a few decades later.
The main reason is that there is too little arable land here and it is barren, there are not many crops produced in the field, but there are still a lot of people, so it is naturally difficult to live a difficult life.
However, the resources of Chinese medicinal materials in the Dabie Mountains are particularly abundant, and some medicinal materials are counted in the country, such as Dendrobium and Huangjing in Huoshan, Jinzhai Gastrodia and American ginseng.
Relying on water and relying on the mountains to eat the mountains, the locals also have their own unique methods in order to fill their stomachs.
If the food is not enough, the medicinal herbs will make up! Go to the mountains to dig rhizome medicinal materials such as Polygonatum angustifolia, Poria cocos, and Pueraria lobata to replenish rations.
Grandpa Xu's old friends who renovated in Jinzhai steamed fresh yellow essence and kudzu root like sweet potatoes and taro to entertain them.
Even if it's kudzu, it's not delicious because it tastes bland, but it's not difficult to swallow, or you can't make kudzu powder into a high-end nutritional non-staple food.
The concocted yellow essence is slightly sweet with a wine aroma, but although the fresh yellow essence taste is also soft and glutinous, the taste is sour and astringent with obvious bitterness, and the smell and taste make Du Huan accept incompetence.
But Grandpa Xu's old comrades-in-arms still eat very well, obviously used to this taste, gobbling it up, and they feel sad when they look at it.
After arriving in Hunan Province, Duan Huan sent him two bags of rice noodles, which can improve his life without being too eye-catching, at least he will not gnaw on kudzu.
Grandpa Xu's old friends who were sent to China were scattered in the countryside and labor camps in various provinces, and although they were all decentralized labor camps, everyone's situation was different.
The best treatment is the kind of person who is named above to be protected, not so much decentralization, but a change to a remote place to recuperate. Of course, labor still has to be labor, but the intensity is very low, and growing vegetables in the yard is also farm work!
The kind that has no one to protect, if you meet a kind farm leader and a cadre of the production team, that is, it is just physical hard work, and there will be no other worries.
The most unfortunate thing is that when encountering the kind of leading cadres who are full of revolutionary passion, they strive to be cruel and ruthless in the harsh winter against the delegated elements of these dictatorship targets.
In addition to labor, the delegated personnel also have to make mental reports anytime and anywhere, and some will even be criticized in rounds, and the endless torture makes people physically and mentally exhausted.
Dai Kexiong in the southern Yunnan border is very unlucky, and he belongs to the last category, and he cannot be less involved in criticism and struggle every day.
When he crossed the Lancang Bridge and arrived at the second branch of Menglong Dongfeng Farm, Dai Kexiong happened to be locked up.
Duan Huan inquired, but no one told him where Dai Kexiong was held.
It's true that visitors are not allowed during the confinement, but they are all here, and they can't leave without seeing people, so it's a big deal to wait a few days.
But the location of the confinement on the farm is kept secret from the outside world, and it is a bit too much to say.
This is in a border area, there is no village in front of the village, there is no store in the back, can you rob the prison and take Dai Kexiong away out of thin air?
The cadres on the farm also had the intention of letting her leave quickly.
I understood the subtext, but how could she leave without anyone seeing her? She just wants to pretend to be confused!
Thought that if she didn't tell her where the confinement room was, she couldn't stand it and would leave if she waited on the cold bench? That's absolutely impossible!
Huan Huan has never seen Dai Kexiong, and she doesn't know what she looks like, even if she has mental power, this person is not easy to find.
However, there is never the word "give up" in the dictionary of Duhuan, there are conditions to be on, and there are no conditions to create conditions.
There is no impermeable wall in the world, so Huan Huan doesn't believe that there are so many people on the farm, and she can't find anyone who is willing to tell her about Dai Kexiong's whereabouts.
"Comrade, tell me where Dai Kexiong is! I will never tell the leader that you told me! He tugged on the sleeve of the young man at the farm reception.
Zhiqing glanced left and right, "Sister, it's not that I don't help you, even if you know where the old ghost is imprisoned, you can still have one!" He made a mistake and offended the deputy field director, and he won't be released for a while! ”
"Listening to your accent, it should be from Sichuan Province, I am also from Jincheng, for the sake of everyone being a fellow countryman, comrade, you can tell me!" Cheekily set almost.
The educated youth seemed to be a little shaken, but he still looked embarrassed, thinking that he was weighing the meager affection of his fellow countryman, and whether it was worth the risk for him.
He pleaded pitifully: "I was entrusted by someone to come all the way here, and I left without seeing anyone, so I went back and gave an explanation!"
I understand your concerns, but I just need you to tell me the place, and I don't need you to lead the way, even if I am discovered, you will not be implicated. ”
After speaking, Duan Huan also stuffed a pack of cigarettes into the hands of the educated youth, the index finger and middle finger of this educated youth are burnt yellow, and it looks like an old smoking gun.
When a person who is addicted to smoking hesitates, give him a cigarette, and he will be able to fly into the sky and dare to stand shoulder to shoulder with the sun.
What's more, the high-grade Chinese cigarettes that are specially supplied during the festival are still available, and the price of one cigarette can be worth a pack of other cigarettes.
Zhiqing looked down at the cigarette case, and decisively put the cigarette in his trouser pocket, "Then let's talk about it first, even if you are caught, you can't say that I told you!" ”
"I will never betray my comrades, besides, I am a foreigner, even if I am caught, the farm is not qualified to interrogate and punish me, the situation you are worried about has no chance to happen!" Huan also earnestly assured.
The educated youth also drew a simple map on the ground, and gave Huanhuan a detailed guide to the route.
"You can follow this direction, and you will see the pigsty through the fish pond and the banana forest, and there are two low houses next to the pigsty, and the one with the iron railing in the small window is the confinement room for the old ghost!"
Duan Huan asked again: "Is the confinement room only locked up for Lao Dai?" Or is there someone else? ”
"The confinement room on our farm, but there has never been a shortage of people, and the slightest trivial thing has to be locked up!" Zhiqing sneered.
The key point of Duan Huan finally came out, "Comrade, can you tell me what Lao Dai looks like?" Otherwise, how can I tell which one is him? ”
"Lao Dai is still very recognizable, with a scar on the left eyebrow and a big mole on his nose!" The educated youth seriously recalled Dai Kexiong's characteristics.
Wan Huan nodded again and again after hearing this, and had a preliminary portrayal of Dai Kexiong's appearance in his heart, and his spiritual power quickly locked the position.
However, the house next door to the confinement room is the security department, and the security personnel are still patrolling with weapons.
