"In a few days, everyone will go to work in the township, and when you step out of the school gate, you will enter the government gate. From a young man who only knew how to read, he became a government cadre all of a sudden. It is both glory and the pressure of the unknown. However, you are a group of simple young people who don't know the complexity of the world, and you have the vigor of a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers, so don't be afraid. You have caught up with the good times, work hard, young people. The second master raised his wine glass and said to the mountain tsubaki.

"Thank you, Second Master." Everyone raised their glasses in unison.

"Do a good job, if you are an official, you have to be a big official, and we will be so clean." The bandleader also raised his glass.

"Thank you, Bandmaster." Everyone smiled at the bandmaster.

"Alas, it's better for your fate, it's time for the good times. Why didn't I give birth a few years later? Sister Jun picked up the cup and looked at Shanchun's younger brothers and sisters, with endless sadness.

"Sister Jun, don't be pessimistic, the days to come will be long." Shan Tsubaki comforted Sister Jun.

"I'll salute you too. You succeeded, I failed. I wish you all the best for the future. Hu Renchang also picked up the wine, bleeding in his heart and smiling on his face.

"Xiaohu, you are not discouraged, there are thousands of roads in the world, and God will always give everyone a road." Tsubaki's mother said.

"Well, I think so. There is no endless road. Thank you. Hu Renchang got up and drank the wine.

"To be a good cadre, remember two points, one is not greedy, and the other is to do practical things. If you do it, you must be a good cadre. The second master said again.

"Remember, second master, don't be greedy and work hard." Shan Tsubaki said in unison.

"Then I wish you all to become good cadres of the country." The band leader said, and everyone raised their glasses.

"I must try." Several people drank together.

The world has opened up a big mind for us, and we will play out our lives on the stage of our generation. In this unpredictable world, what will our lives look like? As your grandfather said, don't be greedy, work hard, what else? Do we have to live a few lifetimes, generation after generation, as slaves in this city? What exactly is an account? Can you jump out of the farm gate? Is it so difficult for a peasant word?

At night, Yamatsuki looked at the starry sky, listened to the barking of chickens and ducks and the barking of dogs from the distant mountains, and thought about the road ahead.

At about two o'clock in the afternoon of March 12, the sound of electric current was heard from the loudspeaker in Luohan Village, and then a song was played. The people who were working on the opposite slope of Zhangjiawan stopped what they were talking about. They knew that there must be a major emergency notice to be broadcast in the township, and this was the case in the past.

"Notice, notice, broadcast emergency notice." After a burst of music, the voice of a female announcer rang out.

"After receiving a telephone notice from the Huanglian Township People's Government, Comrade Zhang Shanchun of the Eighth Group of the Four Counties and Villages was invited to rush to work in the Huanglian Township Political Report this afternoon. Please ......"

"Oh, tell Yama Tsubaki to go to work today." Zhang Shanhuo heard it clearly.

"Si Niang, Si Niang ......" Shanhuo ran to the front of the slope and shouted loudly.

Yamatsuki and her mother and brother are working on the back slope. When he heard the sound of the wildfire, he stopped and leaned his ears to listen.

"Wildfire, what are you shouting?" Mom asked in a loud voice.

"Siniang, the township government announced on the radio, telling Shanchun to report to Huanglian Township immediately to work." The wildfire shouted again.

"Really?" Shan Chuan asked loudly.

"Of course it's true, it's no joke." Wildfire hurriedly shouted.

"Oh, I see." Yamakawa replied.

"Quick, go back and pack up, and go right away." Mom lifted the hoe and picked up the basket.

"Didn't you say the 15th report?" Yamatsumi was a little confused.

"Don't worry so much, just call to go." Mom said as she walked.

"It's so far, how can you get in time?" Yamakawa was worried.

"Dawa, you can send your brother." And the mother said,

"You don't have to send it, it's not a step by step. I went to the fork in Guanyin Township to see if I could climb the passing car, and when I went to Nanjin, I went to my classmate to send it, and he had a bicycle. "The mountains and rivers have figured it out.

Ten minutes later, Shan Tsubaki carried his mother's bundled backpack, which was a quilt and a few sets of clothes, a net in his hand, two towels for washing, toothbrushes and other daily necessities. There is also a grass-green canvas imitation military satchel that sits across Yamatsuki's shoulders and contains a few books that Yamatsumi likes. Shan Tsubaki set off, did not take the main road to the countryside, there was no car to go, a small road from the back mountain, can be nearly two or three miles away.

"Be safe when you climb the car." Mom and brother sent the mountains and rivers to the back mountain pass, watching the mountains and rivers go away, and my mother was still admonishing.

"Master, take a ride, master, take a ride." Shan Tsubaki trotted all the way to the fork in the road from Guanyin Township to Nanjin, and saw a walk-behind tractor driving quickly, and Tsubaki shook his hands and shouted loudly and anxiously.

There is no hope. The tractor rushed several meters, and Tsubaki chased after him. Just when Yamatsumi was disappointed, the tractor stopped.

"Thank you, master." Yamatsuki ran over and climbed into the car.

Today's luck is very good, this master drove far away and stopped, and Shan Tsubaki was very, very grateful in his heart. You must know that in the past, when drivers came to school, when they saw someone trying to climb the car, they were a little slower, tempting to climb, and then accelerated and rushed, throwing people off and fighting, hurting a lot of people.

"You're the mountain tree in Zhangjiawan." The master asked.

"Yes." Yamatsumi replied.

"You don't recognize me, I recognize you. My sister married into your team. The master said.

"Oh, thank you." Yamatsumi replied.

"I heard that you were admitted to the cadre ranks?" The master started the car.

"Yes, I was suddenly notified to report in the afternoon." Yamatsumi said.

"In which township?" The master asked.

"Huanglian Township." Shan Tsubaki felt that this master was very kind today.

"Far away, I only go to Nanjin, I can't send you there if I have something." The master was polite, and Shan Tsubaki was a little puzzled.

"No, when I get to Nanjin, I can figure out my own way, and I can walk without a car." Shan Tsubaki wondered in his heart, how did today's tractor master change his character.

"Master, a lot of money?" In Nanjin, Yamatsu got out of the car and had to pay for the car.

"No need, it's an acquaintance, otherwise I won't let you take it. I didn't see you clearly, I saw that you wanted to take a ride, and I was afraid that you would climb the car, so I drove the car fast. The main thing is that there are too many people climbing on the road, and there is no way. When you become an official, you will take care of us in the future. The master smiled and drove the tractor away.

It's good to be an official.

"Huanglian Township People's Broadcasting Station, start broadcasting now." After classmate Zong Jian was busy going back to play the radio, Shanchun walked ten miles along the highway again, and finally arrived in front of the Huanglian Township Government, just now, the township government's radio began to broadcast.

Shan Tsubaki stood in front of the gate, looking at this government compound made of stones, a row of street frontage including the door hole is a total of seven, up and down two floors, the courtyard is facing the gate is a large auditorium, used for the meeting. Between the gate and the auditorium is a courtyard dam, and in the middle there is a circular pool made of stone railings, which is not only beautiful, but also used for fire protection and water storage.

Walk into the gate, see that the courtyard is a floor on both sides of the seventeen rooms, the whole courtyard corridor is connected, the stone pillars are supported along the steps, all are small green tile roofs, there are two big elms on the left and right sides of the gate, the whole courtyard is quiet and tidy.

Isn't the township government supposed to be lively? Notify me to report, isn't there a welcome and reception? Shan Tsubaki looked at the compound where he was about to live every day, and there was no one in the courtyard, quietly.

Sister Liu stood at the door of the office, looking at the slender young man with a backpack and a net, standing there and looking, it should be the secretary of the Youth League Committee from the township. He also said that he was so far away, there was no car, and the notice was late, so he couldn't catch up, but the result came quickly.

"It's Zhang Shanchun." Sister Liu asked.

"Oh, hello Sister Liu, it's me, Zhang Shanchun. Received a notice to report. Hearing the voice, Shan Chun turned around and saw that it was Sister Liu, the government's financial commissariat.

"Oh, it's coming pretty fast. Come, put things in the guest shop first. Sister Liu took a large set of keys in her hand and turned around and walked towards the row of rooms on the left side of the door.

"It's late tonight, the leaders have all gone to the village, stay in this guest house first, and wait for the leaders to arrange the dormitory." Sister Liu opened the door of a room and let Shanchun in.

"Okay, Sister Liu." Yamatsumi put things on the bed in the guest house.

"There is a food ball on the corner inside, go to eat, it's late." Sister Liu took a handful of door keys and handed them to Shan Chun and left.

Shan Tsubaki looked at the room, it was not big, it was fourteen or fifteen square meters, a bed, a round stool, a small desk with two drawers, and a twenty-five-watt incandescent electric lamp was hung from a wire on the beam in the middle, without decoration, it was all the natural color of the stone and the neat stripe pattern laid down when the chisel was trimmed, which looked refreshing. The bed in the guest bunk is the one that usually receives guests, and the bed linen and quilt are complete. Opening a two-plank sash on the back wall of the room, protected by six steel bars, and outside the window was a well and a row of laundry counters, no wonder the room was a little infiltrated.

"Smack." Interested in the electric light in the room, Yamatsumi reached out and pulled the hanging wire switch, and the light came on. Much brighter than the lights at home. Since the voltage is sufficient, the light is very bright, and Yamatsuki feels bright.

The canteen occupies four rooms, divided into two large rooms, one has two dining tables, one is a stove room, a small back door is opened in one corner of the stove room, which can lead to the outside of the backyard of the house, for government cadres to wash and fetch water to enter and exit, and the other corner opens the door to enter and one room is the bedroom of the cook.

Shan Tsubaki saw two people in the stove room, one in his seventies and the other in his sixties, the two of them were fine, and they were sitting there talking about it, and there was a fire in the stove, and the hot steam in the pot on the stove came out.

"Which one are you?" Seeing Shan Tsubaki looking at the door, a man in his sixties asked.

"I'm new to reporting." Yamatsumi replied.

"Ah, it's the new secretary of the Youth League Committee. Come in, Director Liu said hello, we are waiting for you. Otherwise, it's all cleaned up after eating. "People in their sixties were very welcoming, smiling and getting up to greet them.

"Liu Xuemei also said that she didn't know that you had been here for a long time, so she didn't wait until seven o'clock, your baby came quickly." The old man in his seventies also stood up and said with a smile.

"Oh, thank you." Yamatsumi said.

"You're welcome, eat." After a while, the meal was served. One fried shredded pork, one fried vegetables, three bowls of white rice and dry rice, and three people sat around.

"My name is Zhang Shanchun, what do you call me?" Yamatsumi asked as she ate.

"Yamatsumi wow. Young people are good. My name is Li Mengde, and everyone calls me Uncle Li. The government cooked, retired, and his son Da Kui took up the shift. Today he went home to the farm. This is Old Man Wei, everyone calls him the puppet government. Uncle Li said with a smile.

"If you believe him, the cats will kill and eat. My surname is Wei, and my name is Wei Changrong. You call me Uncle Wei. Wei Changrong also smiled brightly.

"The government just eats with the two of you?" Yamatsumi asked.

"No, today they all went to the countryside, isn't it busy farming here? Spring ploughing production began, and there were still people to eat when they were not busy. Uncle Li said.

"Where to stay, do you have to leave it aside?" Uncle Wei asked with concern.

"Okay, Sister Liu arranged for me to stay in the guest shop, saying that she would wait for the leader to come back and talk about the dormitory." Yamatsumi replied.

"It's okay to do it, come on, let's play cards." While talking, Uncle Li cleaned up the pots and pans and the stove.

"Don't fight, I want to go around the streets." Yamatsumi said.

"Look at what, a urine field, you can walk through the street by peeing, and you will see it every day in the future, I'm afraid you will be annoyed." Uncle Li said.

"That is, in addition to the grain station above, this field is the supply and marketing cooperatives opposite the government, and the old street below, which add up to no 300 meters, and there is nothing to look at." Uncle Wei also said.

"I don't recognize this card." In Uncle Li's bedroom, Shan Chun saw them take out a long square card, and the pattern on it Shan Chun had never seen before.

"Ah, you don't play this kind of card there?" Uncle Wei asked.

"I haven't seen it." Yamatsumi doesn't want to play cards and won't play cards.

"This is called a long card, also called a Sichuan card. It is also possible to fight fourteen and scramble. You have to learn that everybody can play here, and that's the only way to play when you're fine. Uncle Li said.

"I'm not interested in gambling, it's fine." Uncle Wei agitated Shanchun.

"I don't know it, how can I fight?" Yamatsuki still doesn't want to fight, and he doesn't want to learn.

"This kind of card was originally played by four people, and three people can also be played, but they don't want to be small. The small family has five cards, everyone has seventeen pieces, and the dealer has eighteen pieces. You recognize the cards first, and you will be familiar with them. "It may be that there are no entertainment activities in the township, and the two uncles insist on making a slot of money.

Don't say to recognize the cards, just to draw cards and pinch cards are in a hurry to make the tosubaki, several times do not want to play, but the two old men have nothing to do, bent on the church of the tosubaki, where is willing to put the toon away.

My first class as a cadre at work was like this? My first class as a cadre was given to these two old men? My first night at work was in this place?

Yamatsuki has an indescribable taste in her heart.

At six o'clock the next morning, Shan Tsubaki habitually got up, opened the door, walked through the courtyard, and went to the right corner of the government compound to go to the toilet.

Shan Tsubaki stood in front of the door for a long time, and when he saw the light shining from the side of the food group, he took the basin and went over.

"Why are you up early?" Uncle Li saw Shan Chunqi and asked so early.

"Get used to it." Yamatsumi replied.

"There is hot water in the pot, wash your face." Uncle Li said while cutting the vegetables.

"No, I'm used to cold water." Shan Tsubaki opened the back door, and there was also a well at the door, and the water was very good, and the wells were at the mouth.

Yamatsumi carried a few buckets of water in the well to fill the jar of the food ball, and then washed his face.

"Let's go to bed, everyone has to get up at seven o'clock, the radio is called, some are lazy, it's okay, those who drank too much the day before, they have to sleep until ten o'clock." Uncle Li said.

Shan Tsubaki nodded and returned to the dormitory, taking out the selected poems of the past dynasties that he bought during the last time he took the county exam.

Breakfast was eaten by each of them one after another, and Shanchun saw Secretary Li when he was eating. Got to know each other.

"Your bedroom is in the room next to Yue Yongzhen, and it's empty now. At half past nine o'clock today, there will be a mobilization meeting for the spring ploughing and production of the whole township in the auditorium, which will be attended by all the township cadres, the five major members, and the cadres of the two village committees. Secretary Li said to Shanchun.

"Okay. Clerk. Yamatsumi replied.

Shan Tsubaki came out of the food group and met some people in the compound, Shan Tsubaki didn't know him, so he had to nod when he saw people, and smile when he saw people. Some of these people nodded back at Yamatsuki, some smiled at Yamatsumi, and some ignored Yamatsu. I don't know each other, and that's the only way.

"Sister Liu, Secretary Li said that I should live in the room next door to Yue Yongzhen." Shan Chun came to the office and saw that Sister Liu was preparing the minutes of today's meeting.

"That room, I'm afraid it's not easy to live in." Sister Liu muttered in her heart.

"Oh, there's a meeting in the morning, you take the minutes. It's empty, you go to Yue Yongzhen and ask her to clean up the things in the room next to her, and say that Secretary Li arranged for you to live there. Sister Liu handed the meeting minutes to Shan Chun.

"I'll just clean up after myself." Yama took the minutes of the meeting.

This doll is still too young to understand the world. Sister Liu looked at Shan Chun's back and whispered.

What do you do with the minutes? Back in the dormitory, Shan Chun looked at the minutes of the meeting of the village cadres of the Huanglian Township Government and made a difficulty, he had never seen this thing, what should he do.

Go ask people, they are all township cadres, and they can't even take minutes of meetings, isn't it a joke? Don't ask, and you really can't do it, it's not good, it's a joke.

Shan Tsubaki sat at the table and thought, opened the meeting minutes and flipped through them.

Minutes of the sericulture work meeting, time ,...... Place...... Attendees...... Compere...... 1. Yuan Jiaxing, deputy head of the township, delivered a speech: ...... Two...... Oh, the minutes are like this. Shan Tsubaki looked through a few more meeting minutes, and the format was the same, but the content was different.

Hehe, everywhere pay attention to knowledge, and look at the meeting minutes book can also blame the learning ability. Yamatsumi smiled.

At the mobilization meeting for spring ploughing production, Zhu Wanshan, the head of the township, made a mobilization speech, and Yuan Jiaxing, the deputy head of the township in charge of agriculture, made work arrangements, mainly to promote greenhouse seedlings, which is what the people call fire-roasted seedlings.

The greenhouse seedling raising township government issued a task to promote the area of each village, requiring each village to complete, reward those who complete, and punish those who fail to complete. Tomorrow, the township government will form nine working groups to inspect the villages, and the inspection will be carried out by a combination of spot checks and statistics, and the time will be one day. The working group is responsible for the cadres stationed in the village, and the sericulture personnel from each village are dispatched for cross-acceptance inspection.

After the end of the work arrangement, Secretary Li Xiangyuan made a concluding speech, emphasizing the importance and necessity of promoting greenhouse seedlings, and asked the village branch and village committee to hand over this work into the top priority of the current work, and the township government will reward and punish some of the work, and include it in the year-end evaluation.

In the end, the secretary motioned for Zhang Shan Chunchun to come to the stage, Shan Chun's face turned red, it was the first time to stand on stage in front of so many people, and these people were all village cadres, and so many township cadres and five members were staring at Shan Chun together.

Whatever, he is also a cadre, what are you afraid of. Yama Tsubaki emboldened himself in his heart, put down the meeting notebook, and stepped onto the big stage of the auditorium.

"This is Zhang Shanchun, the secretary of the Youth League Committee newly divided from the township, and he will work and work with everyone in the future, and I hope everyone will support the work of young people. Everyone is welcome. Secretary Li introduced.

There were a few applauses from below.

"For the first time, please take care of me; I just went out of school, please give me more advice. Because he didn't expect Secretary Li to suddenly call himself to the stage, he was not prepared, so Shanchun had to bend down and bow slightly, raise his head and raise his chest to use a sentence that the people who ran the rivers and lakes heard in the society said.

"Oh, you're polite."

"Oh, you can still talk."

"It's just too tender, can you do it?"

"It's as thin as a hemp stalk, and you can run on the roads in the countryside."

There was a buzz from below.

The secretary raised his hand, pressed the hall, and announced the adjournment of the meeting.
