In the morning, I ate wowotou made of stick noodles.

Just eat pickles, nothing else, everyone made a bowl of boiling water to drink.

According to Secretary Lu, only the driver had a supper at night, and he ate noodles.

At other times, the food is all wowotou, and at noon and evening there will be fried shredded potatoes and stir-fried cabbage.

This food is better than in the factory, after all, it is a business trip, and Deputy Director Qian personally came to ensure logistics, which cannot be too bad.

Regarding the matter of letting Jiang Ping'an come over and stay in permanence, Deputy Director Qian mentioned it and then didn't talk about it anymore.

Procurement and publicity are two units, even if they want Jiang Ping'an to come over, it is Zhao Dabao who will persuade them.

In the morning, he ate three wowotou and drank a big bowl of hot water, which was not enough for Jiang Ping'an to stuff his teeth.

But it can't be helped, others also eat like this, too much.

Even the pickles were counted, and each person had a few small pieces, and they were salty to death.

After Secretary Lu ate one nest head, he took the remaining two nest heads and got up and left.

"He went to arrange the convoy first, and the farm's cotton warehouse was a little far away."

Seeing Jiang Ping'an's confused appearance, Deputy Director Qian explained.

"Qian Factory, how long can the cotton we get this time be produced in the factory?" Jiang Ping'an said curiously.

In fact, the cost of pulling cotton by car is very high, after all, there is too little fuel in these years.

In the past, most of the cotton used in textile factories was directly pulled to the factory by train and then transferred by car.

But there is no way, there is no train on the ranch, so you can only use a car to pull it.

If there is a choice, the cotton in the pasture is not economical, but there is no cotton and it has to be used.

Deputy Director Qian muttered: "It's hard to say, just two workshops will resume work now." ”

"In the future, other workshops will definitely resume work one after another, and the time is hard to say."

"The factory plans to resume all work within a year, so we also hope to find more raw cotton supplies."

After a pause, he glanced at Jiang Ping'an and continued:

"Actually, I want you to come over and stay permanently next year, and I have considered it comprehensively according to various circumstances."

Jiang Ping'an nodded his head and said, "If the factory director thinks it's appropriate for me to stay here, I will definitely come." ”

"Forget it, the twisted melon is not sweet, I'll talk about it next year." Deputy Director Qian shook his head and said.

After talking for a while, Secretary Lu ran back and said, "Leader, the convoy is arranged, and it can leave at any time." ”

"Okay, then don't delay, let's go." Deputy Director Qian got up and said.

The three of them got out of the cafeteria and walked onto the road.

A team of nine cars was parked on the side of the road, the tires were all on non-slip chains, and the jeep of Deputy Director Qian was in the front.

The driver of the car had already eaten, so Jiang Ping'an hadn't seen it before.

The members of the Security Section also gathered with guns on their backs and stood in a line.

"Let's go!" Deputy Director Qian said to the squad leader of the security section and got into the jeep.

The squad leader took the whistle and blew it vigorously a few times, and the personnel dispersed and boarded the car.

Secretary Lu sat in the passenger cab of the jeep, and Deputy Director Qian and Jiang Ping'an sat in the back row.

The vehicle started slowly and swayed through the snow.

Nothing to say all the way.

More than twenty minutes later, the vehicle stopped in a village.

The 30,000 acres of cotton land are connected together, but the planting and harvesting are the responsibility of each production team.

Then it will be stored and kept by each production team.

So every time you pull cotton, it's not in the same place.

"There are seven teams here, and they have a lot of horses and sheep." After getting out of the car, Secretary Lu said to Jiang Ping'an.

Jiang Ping'an nodded and looked around.

When a convoy came, the herdsmen came out of their homes, and hundreds of people, large and small, were particularly lively.

Many were dressed in white sheepskins, and the herders were visibly malnourished with vegetables on their faces.

The children were in groups of three or five, shouting, laughing, and high, and going around the car, looking at the touch.

There was the one who was bold, and he was about to climb the car to play, but was stopped by the adults.

Most of the surrounding houses are mud brick houses, and there are a small number of stone walls and grass huts, which are crooked and leaking everywhere.

Every house has a large amount of pasture stored in it, as well as horse pens and sheep pens.

Horses not only eat grass, but also grain, corn, sorghum, soybean cake, black beans and so on.

Some of them have to grow their own crops, while others sell their horses from the pastures and buy grain outside.

Just like the 30,000 acres of cotton planted, according to Secretary Lu, it is all exchanged for grain.

Textile mills naturally have a share of grain, and grain is more expensive than money in these years, and it is a proper hard currency.

The cadres of the brigade and the buyers who came from the textile factory earlier and lived here stepped forward to greet Deputy Director Qian.

Yesterday, Director Zhu of the ranch accompanied Deputy Director Qian and had dinner together, so they are all familiar with it.

After a few words of greeting, there was no delay, and after giving the bill of lading, the herdsmen helped load the cotton onto the car.

The warehouse is not on the side of the road, and it has to walk through a narrow path of several tens of meters, so it has to be transferred by horse-drawn carriage.

The cotton was tightly packed in burlap pockets, and it was very heavy, and it took two people to carry it when getting on the bus.

I didn't move it a few times, but I was tired and sweaty.

In the yard in front of the herdsmen's houses on the roadside, a few tables and benches were set up, and Deputy Director Qian and the cadres of the brigade went to sit down.

Jiang Ping'an and Secretary Lu naturally followed.

didn't share a table with Deputy Director Qian, just sat down next door and chatted.

"Has the money factory talked to you?" Secretary Lu asked curiously.

Jiang Ping'an took the cigarette, handed over one, and said, "He said to look at it again." ”

"Hehe, I'm convinced, such a good opportunity, you are still picky." Secretary Lu said with a smile.

Jiang Ping'an smiled, pointed to the distance, and then pointed to the house behind him, and said, "Are you used to staying here?" ”

"That's right, the conditions are really a little worse." Secretary Lu said with deep thought.

"Don't say stay for a few months, I've only been here for about 20 days, and I'm like an arrow."

"But it might be a little more fun in autumn, the green grassland, riding horses and herding sheep, it's quite comfortable."

Jiang Ping'an smiled and asked, "Aren't you comfortable in the factory?" After work, you can also warm the kang head of your wife and children. ”

"Haha, you kid." Secretary Lu couldn't help but laugh.

"By the way, I heard you're in college on your own? Is it easy to take the test? ”

Jiang Ping'an smiled and said: "If you look at the number of places admitted to the university every year, you will know whether it is good or not." ”

"Yes, yes, yes, I shouldn't have asked about this obvious matter." Secretary Lu reacted and said.

Then he exclaimed: "No wonder the money factory values you, a cultured person, where is it not a golden pimple?" ”

"I'm only a freshman, and I've taken a few exams this semester." Jiang Ping'an shook his head and smiled and said.

"Oh? Still have exams? Secretary Lu was very surprised, and curious: "What are the results?" ”

Jiang Ping'an said: "I take the exam at least once a semester, so I study on my own, and I usually apply for universities in my province." ”

"You can also take every exam, and if you have a good test score, the school will send it to the unit."

"Didn't I turn positive the other day? In fact, there is also a great promotion in this regard. ”

Whether you usually perform well or not, in addition to your own work, there are many aspects that can add luster to it.

For example, Jiang Ping'an purchases materials for the factory, such as excellent results in university exams, and can add points to the leaders.

Therefore, he became a regular in advance, not because he passed on a letter and made meritorious contributions, so he immediately became a regular.

If he usually behaves badly, even if Jiang Ping'an mentions it to Zhao Dabao, he won't take care of it.

When Secretary Lu heard this, he admired: "You are a person with a heart!" ”
