Chapter 140: Slipping away

Huamei Huasong went to the office of the director of the Shujiang Bureau of Commerce, and Director Tian and Manager Li of Party A of the base happened to be sitting inside. Hua Mei said: "While the two leaders are here now, we once again strongly demand that Party A send someone to the base as soon as possible to investigate and solve the problem, we really have no ability to sustain it." Say: Manager Li said: "I'm reporting to Director Tian, didn't I tell you to wait for the notice." Hua Song said: "The base has been wiped out one after another, and you have dragged it from last year to this year, so which year of the monkey do you want us to wait?" ”

Manager Li was displeased and said, "Who are you?" "Yang Huasong, Yang Dahong's plenipotentiary, do you want to see the power of attorney?" "What's your attitude!" "That's my attitude, what's wrong?" "You ......" Director Tian beckoned, stopped talking to each other, smiled and sang with a red face and said: "Lao Yang, drink tea first, drink tea first, don't worry, if you have something to say, speak slowly." At this time, Lin Fei walked in, gave Hua Mei Huasong a secret look, and booed in his ear, he got up and said, "I have something to do, you can talk about it." ”

Manager Li left, and Hua Song said after giving a detailed introduction to the disaster: "Director Tian, Director Lin, if I am Yang Dahong, I won't be able to manage so much, and I will leave early." Or come and live in your office begging for food. We have been struggling for more than a year in this disaster, especially in the last few months, and we have not touched a single oil star. This man's heart should always be fleshy, right? If you continue to play a procrastination, I will immediately send a telegram to the left-behind workers, and all of them will come to your office, eat and live and wait to solve the problem. Director Tian said: "Lao Yang, if you do this, who will bear the impact and loss?" "Director Tian, who do you say should bear it? Even if you want me to bear it, anyway, I am a farmer, and there are a few broken grass houses in the countryside, you can go and seal them up at any time. Lin Fei said: "The situation of the base is indeed special, Hua Mei, Master Yang, we will discuss it when Manager Li comes back, and strive to send someone to investigate and deal with it as soon as possible." Go back first. ”

Yang Wudeng went to Pengwan with a vegetable core early in the morning, and walked the streets and alleys to sell: "Sell vegetable cores, sell vegetable cores." Fresh vegetable cores, two dimes a pound, sold cheaply. Under the scorching sun, he staggered until the afternoon, and most of the picks were not sold. I had to go back, buy a cake at the roadside shop, and the shopkeeper said, "Have a drink?" "Not thirsty." He went to sit on the stone in the shade of a nearby tree and nibbled on bread, and his mouth was so dry that he couldn't roll his tongue and choke out. There was a cough and tears came out. He wanted to buy a bottle of water, so he took out the money and counted it, sighed and took it back. Set aside the remaining half of the bread, wrap it in a dry tobacco and smoke it. His face was wrinkled like a ravine, revealing indescribable sadness, his dull gaze staring at the concrete road, his dry and yellow hands trembling uncontrollably.

He thought silently: "During the liberation, I beat the local tyrants and divided the fields to the households on the land, no matter how big or small, I was also a cadre. No one before or after people refers to vests. Seven children, one recommended to go to the normal school, and two were admitted to the university secondary school, and they praised me for my good fortune when I met people. Dahong's baby, in my eyes, has always been the most promising among children, but I didn't expect him to be smart but mistaken by cleverness, and threw away the iron rice bowl that the croppers looked forward to the stars and the moon, and fell to today's field. Alas, I am already old, and I can't help him if I want to. What is his future path going on? ”

Yang Wudeng's previously dry eyes were moist.

A girl passed by on a bicycle, and Yang Wudeng stood up with difficulty and said, "Girl, do you want to buy vegetable cores?" A dime a pound. Sold to you cheaply. The girl stopped and glanced at her and said, "Uncle, your vegetable core is wilted." "It's still fresh down there." "Uncle, where is this dish grown?" "That base at the foot of Qiniang Mountain." "Oh, the boss's name is Yang Dahong, right?" "Yes, he's my eldest son." "Yes. I went there with Jin Yaqiu to play, and your son knows me. "The girl's name ......" "You said that you would do Xiao Liu, and he would know." "Xiao Liu, if you can afford this vegetable core, take some and eat it."

Yang Wudeng selected the fresh ones below and put them into her bicycle cabbage. Xiao Liu said: "Uncle Yang, how can this be, I heard that it is very difficult for you to suffer a disaster. Xiao Liu didn't have change, so he twisted the Yuan bill and stuffed it into Yang Wudeng's hand: "Uncle Yang, don't look for it." "Girl, this ......" "Tell Yang Dahong to have time to play."

Xiao Liu pedaled away, Yang Wudeng looked at her back and sighed: "Alas, our Dahong is nothing bad, but it is almost lucky." ”

Yang Wudeng returned to the base, and Dahong saw that the vegetable core was not sold out, and said, "Dad, don't sell it if it's not good." "It's hard to grow it, but do you want it to rot in the ground?" What's more, we can only survive by selling groceries now. "Dad, don't worry. Li De and I are two laborers, and we still can't find a bite to eat? Yang Wudeng didn't say a word, took out the half of the cake from his coat pocket, and handed it to Li Dedahong in two halves and said, "I'm too hungry on the road to swallow no water, you two eat." ”

Dahong Li De had all kinds of flavors in his heart, but Yang Wudeng excitedly took out more than ten yuan and handed it to Dahong and said, "Give,

Tell Li De to go and beat the pound of vegetable oil. "Dad, where did you get all this money?"

Yang Wudeng said that he met Xiao Liu on the way back, and Li De almost couldn't hold back his cry when he heard it, so he turned around and ran away. Dahong controlled his emotions and said, "Dad, you can buy cigarettes and smoke with all this money." "No, Dad knows how hard it is for you right now." "Dad......"

Da Hong went to Pengwan to find temporary workers for himself and Li De, and ran almost all the factories, either not related to the professional style, or was politely rejected on the grounds that the temple was too small, and the big talent was too useful. Helplessly found Lao Ke, he said: "With all due respect, I can help dozens of your workers find work, but I can't serve the two of you." "Why?" "Most of the family-owned Hong Kong-funded enterprises here need a large number of ordinary workers, as for the positions of secretaries, managers, executives and other positions, it is easy and profitable, and the boss's relatives and friends have already reached out."

Dahong then went to Pengwan ** Office to find Xiao Liu, she made tea and said: "Dahong, I met your father that day, what a good old man." "Thank you for your handout. I'm here today to ask you to help you find a temporary job. "Dahong, although you have suffered calamities, why should you do this?" "Secretary Liu, you can't also play ball, right?" "You can find Lao Ke to deal with this matter immediately." "Alas, I've looked for it, and everyone has exalted me. Let me float in mid-air, and I won't touch the world or the ground. ”

Xiao Liu thought about it and joked: "Lao Wang at the sanitation station said that he is short of two garbage porters, will you go?" "Thank you, my brother Li De and I went to the top."

Dahong Li De wore work clothes, standing on a tractor carrying garbage, holding the front carriage board with one hand and a shovel with the other, so that the dust was stained beyond recognition. Pedestrians dodged or glanced at their hands and towels to cover their noses. Li De hung his head and said, "Brother Dahong, I really can't stand it, find another job, no matter how hard and tired you are, you won't be afraid." "Li De, you and I have no way out right now, what is this? Gritted his teeth and got through. ”

The tractor drove to the garbage collection point, and the driver closed the door to smoke and drink tea. Dahong Li De threw off his arms and loaded the garbage into the truck, and the fermented heat and stench made Li De spit and spit. Dahong said: "Li De, you wear a mask. "It's too hot, so it's even more breathless when you wear it." Suddenly, a headwind blew a cloud of dust on Li De's face, he squatted down in front of him and rubbed his eyes, Dahong threw away the shovel, threw off his gloves, rubbed his hand on the inside of his clothes, stepped over and said: "Eyes drill ashes, just blow it." "Damn, God isn't a good thing, it's bad for the weak."

Loaded with a tractor, Dahong Li De climbed into the car and drove away.

More than a month later, Manager Lin Fei and his entourage visited the base and carefully inspected the fish pond orchard, Manager Li and Lin Fei exchanged opinions privately and sighed: "Alas, the general trend has gone. "Yes, it seems that Yang Dahong's reaction is true, I didn't expect the natural conditions here to be so bad, I can't help but say that they have done their best." "The decision to engage in farming and breeding in this area is a major mistake in itself. If you build a seaside resort, the conditions are unique. ”

Lin Fei joked: "Manager Li, then you invest, I'll take care of it for you, how about it?" "Director Lin, you won't follow me as an old man. At present, there are more than a dozen companies and dozens of factories under the bureau, most of which are so crowded that self-employed people have to take off their brands and sell their buildings, and our company is barely holding on, and we can only have a bowl of rice to eat. "Hahaha, Manager Li, let's get down to business. You're the No. 1 boss of this base, how are you going to clean up the mess? "Alas, no one has the power to return to heaven. This time, I wanted to see the money and get rid of it, but now I know that no one wants it even if it is given away for nothing. In particular, the arrears of land rent in the past few years have accumulated to a large amount. If we let the village know that we are coming, I am afraid that we will not want to get out if we don't give up the money. "That's the right thing to slip away?" "Did I say that?"

At night, Lin Fei secretly said to Dahong: "The loss of the base is irreparable, we must not continue to be trapped here, we can collect as much as we can now, thirty-six strategies, and go is the best policy." ”

Early the next morning, Manager Lin Fei and Li left in a hurry.
