1986: Old Stories in Northeast China

For many people in rural Northeast China, this year is just in the heat of the year.

Because even if you plan to prepare for spring farming, it is still early, and you can still make it after the second day of the second lunar month.

But for the villagers of Erdaoling Village, this year is already over. This year is really different. Not only do they have a goal in mind, but they also have to make preparations right away.

Every household has to think about whether to grow mushrooms or grow greenhouses in the future. Should they do both at once, or save some trouble and work for Chen Tiezhu in the future.

It seems to be a simple choice, but it is actually very difficult for everyone.

Or it is because they are really afraid of living in poverty. Now there are too many choices, and they have difficulty making choices. They really want to choose, but they are afraid that they can't do it well.

"Tiezhu, let me discuss something with you. Do you think that if women build our mushroom house at home, can it be built well?"

Carrying everyone's doubts, He Jianguo came to Chen Tiezhu.

Chen Tiezhu was happy, "What's wrong with that? It just takes time, so you need to pay more attention. Our women comrades can really hold up half the sky, and they are no worse than men when working in the fields."

"Are you all thinking about making a good profit this year, and don't know what to choose? Thinking about letting the women comrades take care of the mushroom house and the family, and letting the men comrades come to my place to do short-term work or something?"

"Your eyes are sharp, and it's really like that." He Jianguo was happy.

"Another thing is the area of ​​the mushroom house, it's really hard to determine. What size is the best? Can you spend less money and earn more in the future?"

Listening to He Jianguo's words, Chen Tiezhu was very emotional.

The villagers are not given for nothing, and they have already started to think about things.

"Uncle Jianguo, how about this, I'll shout it on the loudspeaker, so that everyone can save themselves from wondering." Chen Tiezhu thought for a while and said.

"That would be great. When are you going to deliver the pig manure and chicken manure to the fields? I'll count the carriages and manpower, so that I can keep track of the work." He Jianguo asked hurriedly.

"Actually, any time is fine. I'll go to the county agricultural machinery company in the next two days to see what the price of the four-wheeled machine is. I'll buy one first." Chen Tiezhu said.

"Uncle Jianguo, what you just said is very good. I have to use workers flexibly here. We'll count these short-term workers and pay them together when the time comes."

"The employment of our village will be handed over to you when the time comes. You can also hold a position in our company when the time comes, so that we can talk to someone in the future."

"Ah? Give me a position?" He Jianguo asked in surprise.

"Yes, my father-in-law came here, and we talked about this. The village chief is an official and not an official, so it's okay to get another job from me." Chen Tiezhu said with a smile.

"We have worked hard, so we must get something in return. I don't want to take advantage of the village, so this is nothing, we can just do it with confidence."

"Well, uncle listens to you." He Jianguo nodded vigorously.

It's already said so much, if he refuses again, it would be too fake.

Talking and chatting, they also came to the village office.

"Hey, hey, hey, ah, my eldest daughter, don't play too long at Second Grandpa's house, Second Grandpa's arm is not well yet."

After turning on the broadcasting system, Chen Tiezhu first gave his precious eldest daughter a warning.

Doudou, who was playing at Second Grandpa's house, frowned. Why does he care about everything?

"Fellow villagers, let's chat with you first." Chen Tiezhu continued.

"Everyone is a little confused about how big the mushroom house should be to get the best cost-effectiveness, so I'll talk about this first. Then, everyone will have a clear idea."

When they heard him say this, the people in the village put down their work and listened attentively.

"In fact, no matter how big it is, it has a cost-effectiveness, hahahaha." Chen Tiezhu said seriously, and then he laughed along.

The expressions on the faces of the villagers who listened were very helpless, but this was in line with Tiezhu's usual style.

"Why do you say that? Because this time our company will be responsible for unified procurement, so we can keep the price of materials to the lowest." Chen Tiezhu continued.

"So it doesn't matter how big it is, we will make a decision based on the area we can take care of. When the time comes, register with Liu Dayou, we will gather the materials we need, and then go to purchase."

"There is another thing, what is it, that is, I give you more choices, so it is difficult for everyone to choose, and I don't know how to make more money."

"It's not that complicatedWe all have to do it according to our actual situation. Why do you say that? Because the labor force of each family is different. "

"As a young couple, we can't do much. What do we need to think about? How can we arrange all the work at home?"

"Other people have more people in their families and can take care of them. We don't look down on them. Because we also have our own way of living, this is not a big deal. The first thing to do is to make money. "

"I need some odd jobs from time to time. In the future, I will also need some long-term workers. Long-term workers have their advantages, and short-term workers have their own advantages. "

"Long-term workers must be worse at taking care of the family's fields and other things. To put it bluntly, the landlord's family doesn't have any surplus food. I pay you wages, so you have to focus on me first. Right?"

"Short-term workers seem unstable, but they are really odd jobs. Farming, shoveling, field care, autumn harvest, picking greenhouse vegetables in the future, all these require workers. "

"And there are quite a few workers, I am worried that there will not be enough. So don't worry about making money. I only have one request, you must arrange the work at home clearly first, and then come to work for me."

"Otherwise, just to make money from me, and then not take care of the land at home, that is putting the cart before the horse, this kind of thinking is not good."

"Let's talk about a more important issue. Some villagers want to mobilize all the comrades at home. In fact, growing mushrooms really does not distinguish between men and women, and even many things do not distinguish between men and women."

"I am strong, so what? I am not as good as the female comrades in our village in doing farm work. I don't understand. So whether it is growing mushrooms or growing greenhouses, there is actually no problem."

"I said so much because some villagers were a little panicked after seeing the opportunity to make money. Don't panic, I'm here, why panic? "

"If you want to work, there is enough work to do. In the future, according to the actual situation, I can also allocate half-day work or something, and we will round it up at the end of the month."

"In the early stage, I will provide the culture medium for growing mushrooms to everyone according to the previous statement. It will not be needed in the later stage. Everyone is making money, and no one cares about the money."

"Don't worry, the harvest this year will not be bad. No matter what you do, you can make money in your pocket. Just maintain our fine tradition of hard work and perseverance, and there is nothing else to do."

"This kid is really hardworking. It works after shouting, and it gives everyone a reassurance."

Mr. Han said with a smile.

"Yes, everyone's spirit is different this year. In previous years, they never started so early. "The second master also sighed.

All of them have carried guns, so they naturally know whether a team has combat effectiveness, and military morale is very important.

Chen Tiezhu is the pillar of Erdaoling Village, who can stabilize everyone's mind.
