The Story of Qingfeng Village

Chapter 32

Wang Jinfa learned from his uncle Wang Accountant's shrewdness, and knew that this poverty alleviation work was going to be carried out thoroughly. Of course, he had to show his attitude in front of the first secretary, not to mention that he wanted to make some achievements after all these years.

Xiao Guangwei was very satisfied with Wang Jinfa's attitude.

He is a cadre sent from abroad, and in the final analysis, he still has to rely on the local cadres and the masses to carry out his work.

It is best to be able to reach a consensus with members of the village committee.

With the cooperation of Wang Jinfa, the work will be carried out much more smoothly.

"Principal Wang and Teacher Zhu must also be counted. We must first form a core group. Only when we are united and twisted into one rope, can we lead everyone forward."

Wang Jinfa: "My brother Chunsheng has nothing to say. After being the principal for so many years, he is very respected by people. He speaks better than me. Teacher Zhu is from the provincial capital. He has connections outside and is famous in the village. Speaking of Zhu There is no one in the family who does not give a thumbs up, and if they join, it will be like a tiger with wings added. Secretary Xiao, you have a good eye, and you immediately pulled in two main forces."

Xiao Guangwei: "I have no choice but to catch more people to carry out the work."

Wang Jinfa: "It's just that there are some thorns in the village, or people who rely on the old to sell the old, it's hard to tell. Don't look at me as the village director, but I still have to suffer. They are all from my old life. They are too familiar. Sometimes I even repeat It’s hard to say anything.”

Xiao Guangwei: "Old Wang, from now on, let's divide the work and sing the red face and the bad face respectively. If you have any difficult characters, you can leave it to me. I like to shave my head..."

Wang Jinfa: "Old Xiao, with your words, I have confidence in my heart."

The two future leaders of Qingfeng Village exchanged a few words in private and reached a consensus.

Xiao Guangwei: "Old Wang, weigh two catties of melon seeds and peanuts from the commissary, and then take a pack of cigarettes, first record the account, and I will settle it later. Let's get to know these old men today. They will be the main force in our work in the future. Army, you can't be negligent."

In the office of the village committee, more than a dozen old men sat around smoking and chatting, and the room was full of smoke.Today, these old men who came to help push the carts to fill the road are still strong and strong.

They are all usually good in the village and pay more attention to the affairs of the village. Of course, they have a good relationship with Wang Jinfa, so when Wang Jinfa shouted, they all took their guys and followed.

Most of the young people in Qingfeng Village have gone out to work, leaving only the elderly and children at home to live on the fields.

Seeing Xiao Guangwei and Wang Jinfa come in, everyone stopped talking and stood up cautiously: "Secretary Xiao, Director Wang is here."

Xiao Guangwei: "Everyone sit down, don't be polite..."

Wang Jinfa put peanuts, melon seeds and cigarettes on the table, and said, "You are at ease today. Secretary Xiao treats guests, not only for dinner, but also for good cigarettes."

Xiao Guangwei: "I've been in Qingfeng Village for a while, and I don't know everyone. I'm ashamed. Please help me today. Let's take this opportunity to get to know each other. Don't treat me as an outsider in the future."

Xiao Guangwei dismantled the cigarettes and distributed them to everyone, "Come and burn it, burn it...you're welcome."

"Oh, Secretary Xiao, you can speak local dialect."

A sentence of burning brought the distance between everyone closer.

The old men were less restrained.

Xiao Guangwei: "I have worked in Baima Town for several years, and I have been to Taiping Township many times. I even came to Qingfeng Village when I was patrolling the line before..."

"Secretary Xiao, have you been to Qingfeng Village?"

"No wonder, the local dialect is so smooth."

An old man squeezed forward and said to Xiao Guangwei: "Oh, no wonder Secretary Xiao looks so familiar, so he came to our Qingfeng Village before, do you remember me?"

Xiao Guangwei looked at the old man's face and said: "Remember, remember, you are an agricultural electrician in Qingfeng Village, and your name is... Wang Deshun. The first time I followed the master to Qingfeng Village to patrol the road, you led the road. When I came back, I was still there. Rest your feet and drink boiled water.

Oh, brother Deshun, why do you look so old, I can hardly recognize you? "

In my memory, Wang Deshun was not much older than him. At that time, he was a strong young man. The Wang Deshun in front of him was dark and thin, and he was not conspicuous at all among these old men.

"Oh, I'm getting old, and I had a serious illness a few years ago... Fortunately, I came back from the ghost gate."

Wang Jinfa: "Brother Deshun, I didn't expect you to know Secretary Xiao a long time ago. Why didn't I hear you?"

Wang Deshun: "Why didn't I say, don't you all know about the five yuan thing?"

"So that person is Secretary Xiao."

"Secretary Xiao, you have a destiny with our Qingfeng Village."

Xiao Guangwei: "Hey, waiting for Qingfeng Village is a fate. I came to Qingfeng Village for the first time when I patrolled the route. I am embarrassed to say it. I didn't know what it was to eat boiled water at that time. Waiting for a bowl full of water I was amazed when the eggs were served to me."

The floodgate of memory opened, and Xiao Guangwei's thoughts immediately returned to that time.

That was when he was assigned to the station just now, and followed his master to inspect the line.

The master said: I will take you to familiarize yourself with the route first, and then you will have to rely on yourself.Let's go to Qingfeng Village, the farthest place in Taiping Township first.

At that time, I had to measure the distance with my two legs. Fortunately, I was accompanied by the rural electricians in the village, so I was not lonely. I talked about the situation in the village along the way, and then set up some astronomical and geographical Longmen formations, and the time passed quickly.

After patrolling Qingfeng Village that day, the agricultural electrician invited them to rest at home and drink water.

Xiao Guangwei was tired and thirsty after walking, and he had already drank the water from the military kettle he carried when he went out in the morning. Of course, he agreed with the farmer's proposal. "Okay, okay, my mouth is dry enough for a shell...I really need to replenish water."

Rest your feet, wash your face with well water, and fill your stomach with water. It feels very comfortable, and the fatigue will be wiped away immediately.

The master next to him frowned, but he didn't say a word, but followed into the farmer's house.A very simple farmyard, surrounded by bamboo fences, there are a few chickens running around in the yard.

Unexpectedly, Wang Deshun brought out two bowls of sugar water eggs in the end, the master and him each had a bowl.

He knew that the villagers’ families were not rich at that time, and everyone used chicken butts for money, and the eggs they saved were used to exchange salt and oil money, and a bowl of eggs cost six..."

The two bowls are probably all the eggs his family has accumulated in a month.

"This this……"

The master gave him a meaningful look, and Xiao Guangwei still remembers that look vividly.

Wang Deshun, a rural electrician, said: "You two have worked hard. You have walked for half a day. Come, come, have a drink of water."

Xiao Guangwei was extremely embarrassing at the time, if he knew that drinking boiled water was for this, he would not have come in even if he was killed.

What should we do now?
eat?Still not eating?

He glanced at the master. The master must have known about this custom, but why didn't he say it at the time?

You must remember a lesson for yourself.
