Unlike many other students who mostly choose to intern in many enterprises in Yicheng Development Zone, Chen Changjiang is very obedient and obedient to his eldest brother's instructions to go deep into the rural grassroots.

Growing up in a family home of a brewery with a relatively superior environment, Chen Changjiang knew a lot about many things in the countryside, and he made a lot of jokes at the beginning. However, his growth speed is obviously very fast, and under Chen Youwei's conscious active learning, not only the basic rural life has been mastered, but also the basic situation of Yunshui Township is also basically understood.

"The attitude of the township is basically the same, although Wang Fatzi is a little selfish, but he is relatively active in implementing the city's policies, not to mention the head of the township, he personally grasps the implementation of many specific policies."

Chen Changjiang took a small sip of his cigarette and said with a slight frown: "As for the people in the township, everyone has different reactions, some are in favor and some are against, but most of them are still hesitant. ”

"What are the reasons for the opposition?"

Chen Youwei's eyes froze, there are some situations he still needs to get to the bottom of the matter, this test in Yunshui Township is of great significance to him, he doesn't want to let such a project with high expectations boil public resentment.

Chen Changjiang scratched his head and smiled: "In my opinion, most of these opponents are those who have made good profits in private tea farms in the early stage, and they naturally have a lot of resistance to a large collective with an unknown future. ”

"Those who are hesitant are probably the same idea, right?" Chen Youwei laughed at the cigarette ash in his hand.

Chen Changjiang looked curiously at Chen Youwei, who reacted very calmly, and asked, "Big brother, what are you going to do?" Will it be enforced? ”

"How is that possible?"

Chen Youwei gently knocked on Chen Changjiang's head, and said angrily: "Doing work, especially at the grassroots level, the most taboo thing is to be rough and arrogant, this kind of practice is useless except to make trouble for yourself!" ”

Chen Dahai also sighed with emotion: "Yangtze River, listen to your eldest brother, things in the countryside are not so simple, if you really play tricks with other farmers, I dare to say that it will be absolutely difficult for you to move there in the future!" ”

Chen Changjiang covered his head and asked, "Dad, how do you know the Dao?" Haven't you been working in the factory all the time? ”

"Snort, what do you kid know about the road, when we went to the mountains and went to the countryside, when we received revolutionary re-education in the countryside, you still didn't know where the road was?" Chen Dahai didn't care about anything wrong in these words, and said proudly: "When I was your age, I was a good hand at farm work, and it was a later thing to enter the factory. ”

"Yangtze River, Dad is right, don't underestimate the people in the countryside, they may not be as good as the people in the city in terms of vision, but if you learn the wisdom of the Chinese-style farmer well, it will be enough for you to use for a lifetime!" Chen Youwei took a sip of the teacup, and with a smile on his face, he taught his little brother who grew up watching him grow up.

"Oh, I know!" Chen Changjiang, who has regarded Chen Youwei as a celestial since he was a child, was convinced and nodded again and again.

"Dad, you must be a little curious about what I did in Yunshui Township, right?"

Looking at the two who nodded silently, Chen Youwei sighed softly: "In short, that is to create a new rural development model for the vast rural areas of Yicheng." Too much emphasis on the development of the single-handedness model is still too single, I still hope that the vast number of rural areas can form a joint force as much as possible, and real common prosperity is our real development direction. ”

"I know that Lu Dao, eldest brother, Gao Township Chief told us that this big collective is to better use the excellent tea resources of Yunshui Township to lead all the villagers on the road of common prosperity." Chen Changjiang patted his thighs full of excitement, perhaps thinking of the predicament in reality, he sighed again: "It's a pity that most people are a little worried now, whether they will go down the old road of big pot rice in the past." ”

Chen Youwei glanced at Chen Changjiang appreciatively, and said in a deep voice: "This is the root of the problem, this kind of big collective we are developing is to get rid of the criticized development model of the big pot of rice in the past." That's why I asked Gao Ming to do several different ways in Yunshui Township for everyone to choose. ”

"I know that there are two main models, one is the cooperative model with the village as the unit, usually each does its own thing, and when it comes to sales, everyone collectively bargains in the name of the village-run tea sales company." After all, Chen Changjiang is still not calm enough, and he is very expressive in front of the eldest brother he admires the most.

"The other is to form a joint-stock company with all the villagers as a unit, or several villages as a unit, according to the head, and all the tea planting and sales are all specifically responsible for such a company." Chen Youwei smiled at Chen Changjiang and nodded in encouragement, while groaning and saying, "Personally, I prefer the villagers of Yunshui Township to adopt the latter model. ”

Chen Dahai asked puzzledly, "Why is this?" ”

"The former so-called cooperatives are actually just a loose and temporary form of cooperation, which may be more convenient in the initial stage of market development. Once the environment of fierce competition in the market is reached, the small-scale farmers who have swept away the snow in front of their homes will be in a very disadvantageous position in terms of cost and future bargaining. Chen Youwei's bright eyes exuded a confident brilliance, which made Chen Dahai and the others addicted for a while.

"The joint-stock formal company is different, from production to sales every link is managed in accordance with the modern formal enterprise, not only can effectively control operating costs, but also has a natural advantage in unified sales."

Chen Youwei waved his right arm vigorously and said resolutely: "Besides, it's not that all the people in the village have to be stuffed into the joint-stock company to work, those who are surplus can go outside to do what they want to do, and go home directly at the end of the year to wait for dividends, if they don't want to accept such a good thing, I really have nothing to say." ”

"Yes, Township Chief Gao said the same thing." Chen Changjiang said with a smile: "It's a pity that I'm not from Yunshui Township, otherwise I would really want to get a piece of the pie, such a good thing is really nowhere to find it with a lantern." ”

"Therefore, the work of your township government needs to be strengthened, and now is the off-season after the sale of tea. If you don't take care of these things properly now, it will not be good if it really affects the listing of Maojian tea next year. Chen Youwei said with a smile.

"Don't worry, it's those few people who are really resistant now." Chen Changjiang lowered his voice and said: "Township Chief Gao has already said that there will be no one-size-fits-all approach, and those who insist on not participating in the big collective will be allowed to play by themselves in specific places in the township. ”

Chen Youwei looked at his little brother's display with a smile on his face, these things were all opinions he had discussed with Gao Ming, and he naturally knew much better than Chen Changjiang.

"But Township Chief Gao also said that it's okay to go it alone, but if the income of the big collective is more secure in the future, it won't be so easy to join again!" Chen Changjiang smiled and said: "Township Chief Gao is really a character, he said that those who are willing to join the large collective joint-stock company now are what original shares, very valuable, and those who want to join in the future and don't take out ten times or eight times the capital don't even think about it." ”

"This Township Chief Gao is really interesting." Chen Dahai also smiled, shook his head and sighed.

Chen Youwei nodded and said: "Gao Ming's attitude of being willing to use his brains to deal with specific problems flexibly is right, junior brother, you have to have more contact with Gao Ming in the future, and you can learn some useful things from such people." ”

"Promising, people like Township Chief Gao are really high-level cadres, look at the guys in our hometown who know how much they are forced to put down the policy tasks of their superiors, and we know how disgusted the people in the township are to them." Chen Dahai took two puffs of cigarette and sighed.

"Yes, the situation in the countryside is very complicated, and it takes a lot of patience and courage to deal with it." Chen Youwei also said with deep feelings: "Most of the cadres in the rural areas are very bold now, but this patience is almost none, coupled with the traditional bureaucratic style, the life of the peasants in the rural areas is really difficult!" ”

"I heard that the policy towards the countryside has changed again, and many people have paid public grain but only received white slips. Chen Dahai is also from a rural area, and he is particularly concerned about rural affairs.

Hearing the term white strip from his adoptive father's mouth, no matter how calm Chen Youwei behaved on weekdays, he couldn't help but let out a long sigh at this moment.

The history of playing white strips is very long, Zhao Wanglun, who launched a palace coup d'état in the Western Jin Dynasty, rewarded the ministers but found that the treasury was empty, and Zhao Wanglun, who knew that he could not lose his trust, gave his ministers a white slip as a certificate to be cashed in the future, which is the original origin of playing white strips.

The history of playing white stripes in New China is not short, as early as the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China, there were sporadic appearances, but the real spread of white strips was in the mid-to-late eighties after the reform and opening up.

After a series of rural stabilization and reform work after the household responsibility system, the rural situation was generally stabilized, and the state's economic policy basically began to turn, that is, to shift economic reform to urban commerce and trade, especially "opening up to the outside world" in the first place, calling on "the whole people to do business," and putting forward the tempting slogan of "letting some people get rich first." This is a terrible situation, the extremely hopeless Chinese, as if grasping a life-saving straw, everything to "money", like "wildfire burning mountains", is uncontrollable.

Since "opening up to the outside world" is very profitable, agriculture with "grain as the key link" has been placed in a secondary position, and the management of the special funds necessary for grain purchases every year has gradually been relaxed, and many localities with tight finances or even tight financial constraints have dug their "belly" to make up for their "backs" and tried to divert a small part of the grain purchase money for other purposes. As a result, the traditional "credit contract", that is, the white strip, arose in the new situation. Looking at the peasants, although they did not accept the white stripes, they did not dare not accept them, and the local governments were bold in doing it.

And it is precisely this background, which has deep-seated social causes, that has gradually made it a norm, and the only ones who have really been hurt are the peasants who have carried a heavy burden for thousands of years.
