The journey to the heavens starts from the underground station

Chapter 103
"Secretary, before anyone comes from the Public Security Bureau, why don't you hurry up and explain the funeral?" Zhong Yuemin sneered when he saw that he was silent, and continued to scare Chang Gui: "Hurry up, don't worry, Your baby is our baby, if we do something, we will never let them drink too much!"

"Ah, yes!" Zheng Tong immediately continued: "Your mother-in-law is our mother-in-law... Ah no, it's my aunt! Don't worry, after you go in, we will definitely find another good home for my aunt, maybe They can also help you raise your children! Although the children have someone else’s surname, it’s much better than starving to death!”

"okay!"

After a long silence, Chang Gui put the cigarette stick on the kang table, suddenly raised the volume, and said loudly: "You don't need to be frightened by yin and yang, the rations of your educated youth are deducted!"

Chang Gui got down from the kang and picked up the cigarette stick: "Follow me, go! See where your food is!"

"Tch, let's go!"

Is it reasonable for him to deduct our food?Zhong Yuemin let out a light sigh of contempt, and Zheng Tong followed up with dissatisfaction.

Li Yu is also quite upset. Although he knows that this is definitely a trick played by Chang Gui, but is this the attitude of taking other people's things without their consent and being approached by someone?

The three of them followed Chang Gui over mountain ridges, walked into poor households one after another, and finally came out of a cave dwelling with "Glorious Martyrs" hanging on the wall of one household.

"Yuemin, just these few households, you've seen them all. Generally, there's not enough food to eat." Chang Gui led the three of them out, took a peek at the faint tears in Zhong Yuemin's eyes, and deliberately lowered his voice: "Let's go to the team. Even the military and martyrs have a lot of five-guarantee households, and they don't have any labor. Who do they rely on? Just rely on the team! What should we do?"

"I heard that the county has divided up our team with educated youths and they are still carrying rations, so I'm planning to deduct a part of your rations and distribute them to them. Anyway, you don't know. They don't know this year. Just messed around, who knows, I let you find out."

"What's the matter, I have to go to the Public Security Bureau alone, I don't need you to send it! Although it has a bad reputation, you can control your food there, alas, don't worry about it!"

So scheming!What is scheming?That's it!Li Yu has seen Chang Gui's operation with his own eyes, and sincerely admires his methods in his heart.Zhong Yuemin can be considered to have a lot of flirts, but compared with Chang Gui, who has been a grassroots cadre for more than ten years, he is far behind!

Taking the three of them around to a few farmers, and saying a few words, Zhong Yuemin's sympathy was aroused, and Zhong Yuemin, who was still not angry just now, was put into it, and Zhong Yuemin forcibly made Zhong Yuemin feel that it was his group of educated youths. wrong!

Oh, yes, and Zheng Tong, that kid followed behind and wiped his tears secretly.

"Secretary Chang, we misunderstood." Zhong Yuemin lowered his head and said in a deep voice, "Even if we gave them all our food, we would not say no. Don't worry, we were just scaring you , The Educated Youth Office has stopped pursuing this matter."

"Oh, after looking through the grain, there are still two households with five guarantees over there, let's go and have a look."

"No, no, no," Zhong Yuemin held him back, "I'm not going."

"Good baby! You have been good baby since you came here!" Hearing Zhong Yuemin's understanding, Chang Gui patted him on the shoulder, his eyes filled with tears, half touched and half complaining: "But we have wronged you in these places. Already! There’s no other way…”

Zheng Tong took off his glasses and wiped them off: "Don't talk about it, then, we will save as much as we can in the future. Young people, they are also full of shit."

"The last sloping slope, oh, oh... the next beam... I remembered that..."

Just as Zhong Yuemin was about to say something, he suddenly heard the old man Du, who was herding sheep on the opposite mountain ridge, sing Xintianyou with his throat open. His thick and clear singing came out of his broken gong voice, full of vicissitudes of life, just like the suffering here.

Zhong Yuemin was fascinated by what he heard, and he rushed to the opposite mountain ridge in a daze, and Zheng Tong followed.

The continuous drizzle did not know when it stopped. After the spring rain, there will always be new crops growing.

Chang Gui squatted on the ground, stretched the cigarette rod into his purse to fill a pot of cigarettes, no longer shaking his fingers, struck a match, leaned forward to light it, took a deep breath, and exhaled a puff of choking smoke. sighed.

Li Yu did not follow. Unlike Zhong Yuemin and Zheng Tong, he was not affected by Chang Gui's words. He also squatted down beside Chang Gui, took out a pack of golden monkeys from his pocket, and handed one to Chang Gui. : "Secretary, try this."

Chang Gui took it, put it behind his ears, and continued to smoke his own pipe and pot.

"Yes, it's all for you." Seeing Chang Gui's intentions, Li Yu generously slapped the golden monkey in Chang Gui's hand. Li Yu himself doesn't smoke. This pack of cigarettes is just for socializing, and it won't last long The sky will also be overturned by Zhong Yuemin.

"Secretary Chang, your skills are so high!" Li Yu raised his thumb and said with sincere admiration: "Minimize the plank road, secretly hide Chen Cang, change the subject, confuse right and wrong. You fooled Zhong Yuemin and Zheng Tong for a while!"

"Fudge? What is it called a fudge?"

"It's just cheating, cheating, cheating." Li Yu explained with a smile: "You see, it is obvious that you embezzled food in private and made a mistake. If the superior investigates, no matter what the reason is, you made a mistake and made a mistake. , Isn’t there a saying that a man of lofty ideals will not drink water from a stolen spring, and a man of integrity will not be fed by a cheap one. But you, with a little trickery, Zhong Yuemin has given up on pursuing it, so what else can I say!”

"Hey," Chang Gui's small eyes the size of jujube stones flashed, and Li Yu pierced his mind. He smiled awkwardly and spread his hands: "Is there no way, I can't bear to look at it." Let those lonely and widowed old people beg for food, this grassroots work is not easy to do!"

"Hey, don't worry about it. You passed this year, but have you thought about it, what about next year? Where will you get food for those lonely old people next year? You don't need to say next year, the county said, next season If you try to make an idea of ​​rations for educated youths again, you will be dealt with seriously."

After Chang Gui finished smoking, he knocked on the cigarette pot: "Does one year count as one year?"

"I have some ideas, Secretary Chang, can you tell the staff?"

At the moment, Li Yu explained to Chang Gui the idea of ​​repairing the water station and planting fruit trees on the hillside in detail. After listening to it, Chang Gui sighed and shook his head without saying a word.

"What's going on?" Li Yu asked, which means, disagree?

"Baby, these things you said are good things, but they can't be done!" Chang Gui explained with his fingers: "Don't be rich!"

"Do you think you are the only smart person in this village? You have thought of it a long time ago when you talk about it. Leading water to the mountain ridge, every household can use 'tap water', you can plant live fruit trees, and it is convenient to irrigate the ground. So What a benefit, but why not do it? It’s not about the money! Baby, look, this water station needs a water pump, but we’ve searched every household in our team, and we can’t afford to buy a water pump. Money! There is also cement, water pipes, and fruit seedlings, which also need money, right? Baby, grassroots work is hard to do!"

"Secretary Chang, how much will it cost for what you said?" Li Yu asked nonchalantly.Isn't it just money, Li Yu has a lot in his hand!
"A few years ago, I calculated that it would cost about 3000 yuan to buy materials and equipment alone. Labor is easy to say, and there are a lot of strong men on the team."

"That's fine, I'll think of a way to do this. I have a relative who is the party leader in the county. I'll try to make connections. Maybe I can allocate some money."

There is plenty of money, but you can't just take it out like this, after all, in this age... Li Yu has figured it out, it's best to use the name of the county for this matter.
