1983: From Land Sharing to Household Ownership

On May 20, 1984, it was just dawn.

In the whole Chacheng County, the heavy rain is still falling.

It seemed that the sky was gloomy, and there was no sign that the rain was about to stop.

Although it is no longer the kind of violent storm in the middle of the night, it still belongs to the category of heavy rain.

"Director Xiao! Director Xiao!"

Xiao Zhao, a clerk of the tea city government, wearing a raincoat and water shoes, ran out of breath and rushed into the yamen compound and came to the door of Director Xiao's house.

"Bang bang..."

He couldn't care less and slammed the door.

After a while, a figure neither fat nor thin came out, it was Director Xiao who had just been woken up and opened the door.

"Little Zhao, you are..."

He has been under a bit of pressure recently. He fell asleep in the middle of the night last night. Now Xiao Zhao, who has always been safe in his work, came to find him and immediately realized what he was doing.

"Director Xiao...huhu...the water is rising!"

"Half an hour ago, the flood peak in the upstream came suddenly, and the river swelled!"

The expression on his face was extremely complicated, and he couldn't tell the expression, "The current water level has exceeded the highest water level in 1981 by one foot!"

"What's even more terrifying is that the river continues to rise, and there is no sign of fading!"

"About 35% of the urban area of ​​our tea city has been flooded with water!"

With a look of panic on his face, "If it goes on like this, after half an hour at most, half of the urban area of ​​Tea City will be flooded!"

"Ah..." Director Xiao was immediately stunned, his face blushed, he couldn't tell whether he was shocked or relieved.

"Really flooded? Is it really much bigger than the flood in June of 1981?"

He stood still, muttering to himself.

"I was expected by that magical little guy Wang Qiang! This big flood really happened."

"This year's Jiangbei Village is a good fight. After listening to Wang Qiang's advice, we made all preparations for the big flood early."

"Fortunately, I did the right thing! The time for the county-wide mobilization was only one day later than the Jiangbei Village mobilization, and it also got a precious buffer period, so that the flood-fighting and disaster-relief work in the entire tea city could be reduced. It's almost all done ahead of time!"

He was relieved, and the huge pressure he had been carrying all along disappeared in an instant.

"Xiao Zhao, immediately notify the heads of various departments and start the rescue operation according to the original plan!"

"Especially the firefighters and all the public servants, they all moved me one by one!"

"We must let everyone rush to the front line of flood relief and disaster relief to minimize the loss of life and property of the affected people!"

"You go to convey the order immediately, and say that it was me who said it. Whoever dares to shirk the responsibility, I dare to let him dismount immediately!"

The big flood came as scheduled, and it was really the kind of super flood that happened once in 30 years.

The soul-level executive cadre of Tea City took a huge risk by directly ordering the whole county to do a good job in flood control and disaster relief nine days ago.

Today, in a split second, he was rewarded enormously.

Soon, he will establish an unparalleled prestige in the tea city.

Indeed, the previous order to mobilize the whole county was not something ordinary people would dare to issue.

That is simply holding your own future and giving it a go!

Success, the harvest is unprecedented.

If you fail, it is estimated that you will soon take a back seat and retire obediently.

Fortunately, he succeeded, perfectly.

It is not an exaggeration to say that he issued the order for the general mobilization of the whole county nine days ago.

That order at least allowed the entire Tea City to reduce the loss of personnel and property by more than half during this super flood, and I don't know how many poor families were saved.

"Yes!"

Xiao Zhao, who was also a veteran, gave a "slap", stood at attention and saluted, then turned around and ran away.

He has been following Director Xiao for several years, and he has naturally learned a little about the resolute temperament of this person who is dedicated to the people.

Watching Xiao Zhao leave to convey his order, Director Xiao couldn't wait any longer. He hurriedly turned around and went home.

Then, he put on a raincoat and an umbrella, and walked out of the house, striding towards the Yamen's office.

Today, he has to stand by the phone, maintain high tension at all times, and issue hundreds of various orders.

It can be said that the work time has not yet come, and he is destined to be very busy today.

...

Since the once-in-a-30-year flood has arrived in the tea city as scheduled, Wang Qiang can infer some actions of the tea city government and the Jiangbei village committee without thinking about it.

However, he didn't think much about it.

He has done his duty and has a clear conscience.

Wang Qiang knew that the rain in Tea City would stop tomorrow, and it would be sunny for two days.

Late tonight, the flood will begin to recede.

Then there is the intermittent rainy season of seven or eight days, which is not too big or not. Finally, after entering June, Chacheng County will usher in a sunny day that lasts for two months.

Wang Qiang also heard the thunderous cheers from the direction of Lion Mountain just now.

His face was blushing for a while, and he was really speechless.

special!

It is estimated that in the past, there may have been a situation like Jiangbei Village just now: when the big flood came, not only did everyone not panic at all, but they cheered in unison!

This is absolutely unprecedented.

"Brother, come to the balcony on the third floor to see the flood!"

"Brother, what a big flood!"

"This big water! It's also a little too big! Most of Jiangbei Village was flooded!"...

At this time, he must have been awakened by the thunderous cheers from the direction of the Lion Mountain in Jiangbei Village, and then quickly got up and came to the sister on the balcony on the third floor, shouting loudly.

This is the first time they have seen such a big flood.

Much bigger than it was three years ago.

Don't look at the current water level, it's only about one meter higher than the big flood in June of 1981.

But even this one meter height requires a huge amount of water to fill.

After all, as the area ravaged by the floods gets bigger and bigger, every inch you want to rise will require an unimaginable amount of water.

With this one meter higher water level, the flooded areas in the whole county of Chacheng will definitely increase by 20% to 30% of the site.

It is not an exaggeration to say that it is one meter of heaven and one meter of hell.

Hearing the cry of his sister and the others, Wang Qiang got up, took a shower, and regained consciousness.

He even brought boiling water and top-quality tea leaves, brewed a pair of Qingshen tea, and then took a set of tea sets and held them together with a tea tray, and came to the third floor balcony unhurriedly.

There are two sets of stone tables and chairs made of large bluestone and finely carved.

He placed the large tea tray on a stone table and shouted to the four girls, "Don't be in a hurry. In the current situation, you can only let nature take its course. It is useless to be anxious."

"Why don't you come over and sit down, drink a cup of Qingshen tea, and refresh yourself."

He looked at a few girls with sleepy eyes. He didn't know where they were, because they got up early today, and they were still a little lost in the lake.

After all, it is not yet six o'clock in the morning, which is the best time for a person to sleep.

"Oh, here we go!"

"Brother, we haven't washed our faces yet. Let's go to the bathroom on the third floor to wash up before coming over."

"Mmmm, brother, fill us with a cup of Qingshen tea first, and we'll come back when we go. Then look at the big water and drink a cup of tea, it's also very good."

In the fields and forests of my own family, the preventive work that should be done has been done. Now that the flood is coming, it is useless to be anxious.

It's better to sit down and drink a cup of top-quality Qingshen tea, as my brother said, to refresh myself, and then look at the big water.

After a while, several girls turned around and sat around the big stone table with Wang Qiang.

Everyone drank hot tea and chatted while admiring the flood that was like an ocean.

From a distance, it seems to have a unique poetic feel.
