"We walked on the main road, holding high the red flag to the sun, and Mr. Li led the revolutionary team to rush forward through all obstacles. Move forward! Move forward! The torrent of revolution is unstoppable, marching forward! Move forward! In the direction of victory. ……”

Zhang Wenliang strode and sang and returned to Lujiawan.

I went to the county seat for a week, the first three days were busy running business, and the next three or four days were busy renting a house, and at the same time I took the people who sent ducks and geese from Lujiawan, and delivered them one by one, and gave Chen Fan a temporary "19 Ways to Eat Ducks" and "Goose Goose Goose, This Is More Delicious".

Now Lujiawan does not have a self-made speedboat, and the delivery can only be carried to the county by the carriage, a distance of 40 kilometers, which departs at 6 o'clock in the morning, plus the time to cross the river, can be delivered at about 10 o'clock in the morning.

It's a bit of a horseshoe, so Secretary Yang specially asked people to pull a few horses to the town to play a new horseshoe.

As for Chen Fan's proposal to deliver goods through the town's bus, Secretary Yang and they still did not accept it after careful consideration.

If it is only delivered once or twice, it will be delivered to the prefecture every day, and there are quite a few of them, 300 ducks and 54 geese at a time. After a few days of deli workshops, more goods will be delivered, so how can so many live poultry be embarrassed to trouble others every day?

The team simply had their own wagon, loaded the ducks into live poultry cages, and then loaded the cages on the wagons.

One cage can squeeze 10 ducks or 8 geese, and a cart can easily fit twenty or thirty cages, except for four wagons on the first day, and then two wagons can fit them all.

They decided to send them by car, bringing a few rice balls and a bundle of grass to feed the horses, leaving in the morning and returning at about 3 p.m., which was cheaper than taking a car.

After three days of familiarization, the transport team was already familiar with the route and could deliver the goods by themselves, so Zhang Wenliang and the others took the car back to discuss the next stage of work arrangements.

No, as soon as he returned to the entrance of the brigade department, Zhang Wenliang sang happily.

It attracted many members of the 5th team to watch.

"Three tigers, are you back?"

"I'm in such a good mood, and I sang a song, so I sold it a lot."

"A few hundred a day, you can sell seventy-seven eighty-eight a month, okay, you guys."

"Come on, Sanhuzi, strive to take down the local committee."

"Captain Ye, have the workshops in the county been settled, what do you think of my eldest girl?"

"Lao Ye, my Erfeng is the nephew and daughter-in-law of your daughter-in-law and third aunt, if there is a good thing, you have to think about her first."

Ye Shubao and Zhang Wenliang couldn't help but stiffen their faces, and they rushed forward with their heads tied up, not even daring to raise their heads.

Hearing the singing and hustle and bustle outside, Secretary Yang, Captain Zhang, Xiao Liewen, and Yang Xingxiu immediately greeted them.

Secretary Yang glanced at the crowd first, and his elated face was slightly stunned, "Eh, Xiao Chen didn't come back with you?" ”

Zhang Wen's good mood suddenly broke most of the time, and while walking inside, he said angrily, "You just think about Xiao Chen, we ran hard outside for a week, and there was no credit and hard work, but when we came back, we didn't even have a word of comfort, chilling!" ”

A cup of steaming boiling water was immediately handed to him.

Yang Xingxiu looked at him with a smile, "It's cold, let's have a cup of boiling water to warm my heart." ”

Zhang Wenliang shuddered suddenly, stretched out his hands and carefully took the water glass, "Slow down, slow down, don't burn it." ”

Ye Shubao glanced at this living treasure, and then smiled at Secretary Yang, Captain Zhang and Xiao Liewen, "Xiao Chen has been working in the county with us for a week, and I only went to the correspondence university of the prefectural party committee to register today, and I didn't come back together." ”

"Yo, he didn't come back?"

Secretary Yang was immediately stunned, turned his head to look at Captain Zhang and Xiao Liewen, who were also full of surprise next to him, and then looked at Ye Shubao, "He didn't come back, how can he do the work later?" ”

Then he noticed that a person was not there, "What about safety? He didn't come back either? ”

When he went out, there were 5 people, but now there are only 3 people standing in front of him, Chen Fan went to the local party committee, where is the safety?

Ye Shubao laughed, "No, it's safe for him to go to the water transportation company." ”

After a pause, he shook the travel bag in his hand, "I said let's go in and sit down, but I haven't entered the door until now, and I haven't drunk any water." ”

Seeing the appearance of the old god Ye Shubao, Secretary Yang knew that he must have the bottom in his heart, so he smiled sideways, "Let's go, go into the house and talk." ”

When the group entered the office, Zhang Wenliang put the boiling water on the table, and Yang Xingxiu came over with two other water cups, gently put them in front of Ye Shubao and Zhang Juemin, and said with a smile, "This is a pot of tea that was burned last night, and it is just right to drink it now." ”

Ye Shubao was not polite, he took a big sip of the tea jar, and was so comfortable that he sighed.

Zhang Juemin also put down his luggage, thanked him, and drank water in a tea jar.

Zhang Wenliang looked at the boiling water in front of him, silently thinking about when he offended her? I wasn't impressed at all.

Then he saw a tea jar being placed in front of him, and when he looked up, it turned out to be Yang Xingxiu?

Yang Xingxiu's eyes widened, "Do you want to drink?" ”

Zhang Wenliang hurriedly nodded, "Drink, I'll drink." ”

Ye Shubao looked at Zhang Wenliang's appearance, took the cigarette handed by Secretary Yang, and couldn't help but smile and shake his head.

After lighting the cigarette, he exhaled a puff of smoke, and then he gushed about his experience of going to the county.

Although it was through the phone before, in order to save phone bills, Ye Shubao didn't dare to say more, and Secretary Yang didn't dare to ask more.

"Ah, so to speak, the manager Zhao of the county water transportation company is still good, but he is too principled and unwilling to be accommodating? Hey, that's not a problem, understandable. ”

When I say this, my face is not so tangled, and it is more understandable.

"The general manager of the construction company is so easy to talk to, it seems that Master Qiu and Master Ma have said a lot of good things, did you send two ducks to Master Qiu and Master Ma? Send it, right, that's good.

Oh, it turns out that Xiao Chen has finished writing the construction worker, so he can win the construction company, and he also has a share of credit. ”

At this time, Secretary Yang's face was full of pride and glory, as if he had written it.

"All 7 units of the health system have been ordered? Hehe, needless to say, it must be Xiao Chen's credit, and he has such a big face. ”

In the blink of an eye, pride turned into pride.

I don't know what Xiao Chen's face has to do with him.

Ye Shubao said here, Secretary Yang replied, sang and harmonized, and finally finished all the things in the past few days.

After speaking, Ye Shubao took a sip of water, let out a long breath, and finally a little tired appeared on his face, and said in a deep voice, "I know now why even Bailang Lake has such good conditions as not developing a side business."

This side hustle, it's really not so easy to do, if it weren't for Xiao Chen in front, the health system and the construction company would give him face, the material bureau would also give him a safe face, and the other units would take care of the three tigers and their friendship, if we just rushed over in a daze, who would take care of us? ”

When Secretary Yang heard this, the smile on his face gradually disappeared, and he smoked a cigarette and said, "If you don't say anything, we rural girls want to marry in the city, even if we don't worry about food and clothing, but we just don't worry about food and clothing, and if we want to live a good life, we have to be in the city. ”

The words fell, and the room fell silent.

After a few seconds, Xiao Liewen raised his head and said with a smile, "Don't ask for anything, they want to eat meat, and they don't have to rely on our production team to raise livestock, so they have meat to eat." Besides, we don't rely on people and don't ask for people, how glorious it is to be self-reliant, farming and breeding, don't the people in their city still rely on us to raise them? ”

Captain Zhang immediately grinned, "Eh, I love to hear this, even if he is a big official, he still eats the grain grown by our farmers, without us, he eats a fart." ”

Secretary Yang also raised his head and laughed, "This is the truth, in the final analysis, if people want to eat, they can't do without us farmers." ”

The room burst into laughter.

But with a smile on their faces, there is still a trace of gloom in everyone's hearts, thinking in their hearts, when can we farmers not ask for help?

After the laughter, Secretary Yang knocked on the cigarette stick, knocked off the cigarette ash, and looked at Ye Shubao at the same time, "Xiao Chen went to the prefectural committee to register, what about Xiao An?" What did he do with the water transport company? ”

Ye Shubao immediately said, "Go buy a paddle machine, he is the best at dealing with people and units, let him go out and let us rest assured." ”

Secretary Yang nodded suddenly, "Yes, yes, paddle hanger, this is indeed a big deal." Now to deliver goods to the county, two carriages a day are enough, if the cooked food workshop starts in the future, more goods will be delivered, and the number of carriages will be increased. If Xiao Chen opens the market of the prefectural committee again, he will not be able to deliver goods to the prefectural committee by carriage alone, and it is more convenient to use a fast boat. ”

At this time, Captain Zhang thought for a while and said, "Lao Yang, there are a lot of fishing boats in our brigade, but they are all 'small rows', and the loading capacity is slightly more than that of the board car. ”

The so-called small rowing boat is the smallest type of fishing boat, which is larger than the waist boat. In addition to the bow and stern, there are only two and a half square meters of small fish compartments in the middle, and no matter how much they are stacked, the loading capacity is not much.

What's more, the paddle machine can only be installed in the stern, and if the cargo pile is too high, the person driving the boat will not be able to see the front, so in terms of loading, it is not much more than the carriage, at most it is half to double the gap.

Secretary Yang turned his head to look at him, "This is indeed a problem, what do you think?" ”

Captain Zhang smiled, "What else can you think, if the ship is small, build a big ship." ”

Xiao Liewen nodded on the side, "It's no problem to build a ship, it's not a big steamer, any old carpenter can do this, there are more than a dozen people in our team who can build ships, call them all back, start working together, and build a big wooden ship." ”

Captain Zhang continued his words and said, "Although there are more projects this year, Xiao Chen has consumed a batch of building houses, and another batch of building small water towers has consumed a batch, but it should be no problem to get the timber of each team together and get a big ship." ”

The felled logs cannot be used directly, and they must go through multiple processes such as drying and insect removal to obtain usable wood.

Therefore, the various teams in Lujiawan cut down a certain amount of timber every year, and then stored it after processing it for emergencies.

Especially for those who plan to build a new house, they start preparing wood about two years in advance, so there is no shortage of wood in the team.

It's just that there are more places to use wood in the team this year, and a lot has been consumed, otherwise, Captain Zhang doesn't need to mention this stubble, and directly requisition wood in the whole team, not to mention a big wooden boat, three or five are no problem!

……

There was a heated discussion over there, and Chen Fan also got out of the car and stood on the streets of Yunhu City.

He was wearing the shirt he bought last time he came to Yunhu on his upper body, the trousers he bought last time he came to Yunhu on his lower body, and the leather shoes he bought last time he came to Yunhu on his feet.

Fortunately, the backpack on my back was made by myself, but it was also the one I carried last time I came to Yunhu.

Take out a cigarette and lighter, light one and put it in your mouth.

This was the first time he smoked when he was alone, and the faint smoke slowly drifted upward, and was blown away by the wind, Chen Fan looked at the dissipated smoke, and still didn't understand a question.

Where is the correspondence course of Jiangnan University?

After smoking a cigarette, he still didn't understand it, so he decided to ask someone.

Throw the cigarette butt into the ashtray on top of the trash can next to it, look left and right, and walk to the most crowded place.

When I arrived at the place, I found out that this was actually a watermelon stand?

Not far ahead, a pickup truck was parked on the side of the road, and several people, both men and women, stood in a row, each three or four meters apart, until it stretched to the watermelon stall, which was almost ten meters long.

A person picks up a big watermelon from the car, just like shooting a basketball, and passes it to the next one, and the person also reaches out to catch the watermelon in his hand like catching a basketball, and then holds the melon with both hands, turns around and passes the ball again...... No, pass the melon.

After passing through the hands of 5 people, the girl at the back steadily put the watermelon on the stall and turned around to wait for the next one.

Next to the watermelon stall, there were fifty or sixty people around.

Some people weigh the melons and pay for them in the bags or baskets they bring with them, and the few buy one or two melons, and the arrogant ones even use snakeskin bags, buy seven or eight of them, and put them on the back seat of the bicycle and tie them away.

Some buy cut watermelon slices directly and eat melons on the spot.

The melon seller is quick with his hands and feet, collecting money while cutting melons, and there is almost no time to rest.

The person who bought the melon did not eat and spit casually, but walked to a large iron cabinet next to it, which is a garbage can specially for watermelons, with hollow holes around and a high raised platform in the middle.

Many people stood in a circle around the cabinet, dripping watermelon juice and spitting out watermelon seeds falling into the hollow outside the tin cabinet. On the platform in the middle are a few pieces of watermelon, which the melon buyer has placed on them, waiting to continue eating.

(Melon seed and gurind recycling bin)

Chen Fan looked at it for a while, then figured out the process of buying and eating melons, and then stepped forward and asked, "Master, how do you sell this melon?" ”

The person who cut the melon didn't look back, "8 cents a pound, 1 cent a mouthful." ”

One mouth is a cut slice, and even the belt meat is about a pound, and people with big mouths can indeed eat it in one bite.

Chen Fan immediately took out a dime and bought a piece, and also walked to the watermelon bucket and stood to eat. Go down with a big mouth, snoring from right to left, swallow in three or two, spit out a mouthful of watermelon seeds, and then snoring from left to right, and a piece of watermelon is gone.

Raised his hand and wiped his mouth, feeling that this melon was not as delicious as it was later.

This was not after the new millennium, but in the 80s and 90s, when the melons were really big, sweet and sandy, you can clearly feel the particles jumping in your mouth when you eat them, and they are refreshing and sweet, and you will not get tired of eating them.

The melon of the new century is sweet, but unfortunately it always feels like there is no watermelon flavor.

And now the melon is not sweet enough, and it is not enough to sand.

But it's not bad, at least it's sweeter than other fruits, and the watermelon flavor is strong, which is also refreshing.

After tasting it, Chen Fan bought another piece and ate it.

Then he wiped his mouth, washed his hands in a basin with a few watermelons next to him, dried the water, walked up to the melon seller, took out a cigarette and handed it over, and asked, "Master, I want to ask you about something." ”

The melon seller glanced at him, paused to cut the melon, took the cigarette and looked at it, and found that it was a peony, so he put the cigarette on his ear and said with a smile, "What's the matter?" ”

Chen Fan asked, "It's that Jiangnan University has a correspondence point in our Yunhu, do you know where it is?" ”

The melon seller was stunned, "Yo, does Jiangnan University still have a correspondence point in Yunhu?" Don't know wow. ”

The corners of Chen Fan's mouth twitched slightly, grinning, wasting a cigarette.

He raised his hand and waved, "Oh, that's fine, thank you." ”

The melon seller smiled, feeling that it was a little unkind to mix a cigarette for nothing, so he pointed in a direction and said with a smile, "You go to the front to take the bus, go to the 'Education Department' and ask, they must know." ”

Chen Fan's eyes lit up, yes, I must ask the Education Department about this matter, how can I ask everyone casually?

After thanking the melon seller, Chen Fan shook his backpack and walked forward.

After a while, I arrived at the bus stop, stood under the stop sign and looked at the station, but I didn't see the education office, but saw another place name.

After thinking for two seconds, he happened to see a bus slowly driving in front of him, and Chen Fan got on the bus without thinking.

Well, it's not yet noon, so it's not too late to find a place to eat first, and then sign up in the afternoon.
