Era: Winning since educated youth went to the countryside

Chapter 4 Applying to build a house
At the production team branch, Wu Dagang had been waiting for them for a long time.

Along with Wu Dagang are Zhou Weiguo, Wang Hongbing, and Zhu Youde. They are known as the four giants of Dabazi production team.

Among this group of people, Zhou Weiguo holds the highest position and is the captain of the Dabazi production team.

Wu Dagang is the secretary, Wang Hongbing is the deputy captain, and Zhu Youde is the accountant.

Zhou Weiguo had served as a soldier before. He looked about forty years old, with a straight back and an upright posture, with a very serious look on his face.

Wu Dagang is the oldest among the Big Four, about fifty years old. He holds a pipe in his hand, smiles at everyone, and is easy to talk to.

Wang Hongbing is the youngest. It is said that he has some connections in the county, otherwise he would not have become the deputy captain of the production team at such a young age.

Wang Youde seems a bit wealthy, but he has a lot of power in the production team. He is in charge of the income and expenditure of the entire production team, including the distribution of grain.

This information was all told to them by Chen Yang on the way here.

"Captain Zhao, Secretary Wu, Captain Wang, and Accountant Zhu, we are here to advance food." Chen Yang smiled and talked to the four big guys.

"Welcome to the big family of our Dabazi production team. I hope everyone can obey the arrangements of the production team in the future, work hard to complete production tasks, and jointly build the Dabazi production team..."

Zhou Weiguo stood up and spoke words of encouragement steadily, but it could be seen that he was not good at words. After saying a few words, he kept silent and waited for others to speak.

But it's a bit late now, and the others didn't say a few words. Anyway, they were just some casual remarks. After they finished speaking, they started to do business.

"Everyone, line up and come over to handle the grain advance procedures. Come one by one, don't be hasty." Accountant Zhu Youde took the record book and directed them to line up to receive grain.

"You can advance three months of food in advance, but you need to use work points to repay this food, so you have to work hard. If the work points are not enough to repay the debt, you will not receive food after the autumn harvest. If you do not receive food, you will I'm going to be hungry." Wu Dagang said from the side.

"Ah, what should I do?"

Hearing this, the educated youths immediately started talking. Although they had never done farm work, they also knew that it was physical work, and most people simply persisted.

"It's not that there is no way. Our production team is relatively wealthy. If you have money, you can spend money to buy food. However, how much food you can buy depends on your usual performance."

"If you don't perform well, we won't sell you food even if you have money."

"Of course, you can also go to the city and buy it yourself, but if you get caught speculating, we won't care."

Wu Dagang coaxed and threatened them, but his purpose was to persuade them to work hard and perform well.

Of course, it also opened up a hole so that they could spend money to buy food.

After all, the educated youths went to the countryside to build the countryside, so we couldn’t let them starve to death!
And once a person is extremely hungry, he can do anything, and he may cause a lot of trouble.

In order to make these educated youths more stable, they, the village cadres, worked hard.

"Secretary Wu, we must behave well and not embarrass the educated youth."

The educated youths were relieved when they heard that they could buy grain.

They also know that work points are not easy to earn, and they arrived relatively late. The autumn harvest will be in two months, and the food distributed by then will definitely not be enough to eat.

But if they can use money to buy food, they won't be afraid of going hungry. After all, they have just gone to the countryside and most of the educated youth have some money.Because there were not many people, the procedure for advance grain payment went through very quickly. After signing and receiving the grain, Zhou Ziwen did not leave immediately. Instead, he came to Wu Dagang, ready to ask about building a house and spend some money with the villagers. Stay at home for a few days.

"Secretary Wu, I heard that our production team supports educated youths to build their own houses. I want to build two small houses. I don't know who to apply for?" Zhou Ziwen asked.

As soon as these words came out, Chen Shiying and Chen Qiaoyi, who were receiving food, immediately stopped what they were doing and raised their heads to pay attention.

They had just had a quarrel with the old educated youths, and the dispute had already been established. They would definitely be targeted after they returned.

Their family conditions are also very good. If they build a house and move out, they won't have to be angry with these old educated youths.

"Do you want to build a house?" Wu Dagang's eyes lit up, and his old face looked much younger.

"As long as you have money, you can build whatever you want, but let me make one thing clear first. After the house is built, it belongs to you while you are in the village. When you leave, the house belongs to the production team."

"Yes, I know." Zhou Ziwen nodded.

"Since you agree to this, it's easy to say, but your house can only be built next to the Educated Youth Institute." Wu Dagang said.

The places in the village have been allocated, but there is no extra place for them to live.

Moreover, it is easier to manage the educated youth by gathering them together to prevent them from causing trouble.

"It doesn't matter where it is built, as long as there is a place to live." Zhou Ziwen said.

His requirements are not high. Anyway, he can't stay in the country for a few years, and he doesn't ask for a good house. Besides, the current situation doesn't allow it.

It would be fine if he could have a separate house for him to live in.

"Then you go back and think about what kind of house you want to build, and tell me when you think about it."

As he spoke, Wu Dagang looked at the other educated youths and said, "Do you still have houses to build? If so, let's build them together so as not to delay the production tasks."

Hearing this, Chen Shiying and Chen Qiaoyi discussed in a low voice, then stood up and asked: "Secretary Wu, we also want to build a house. I wonder how much two small houses will cost?"

Seeing that Zhou Ziwen was preparing to build a house, they were also moved. Although they had just arrived today, they did not want to live with the old educated youth.

"For two rooms and a courtyard wall, more than 100 is enough. Of course, this price is not fixed and depends on your specific situation." Wu Dagang explained.

"Okay, it's getting late today. You should hurry up and get the food back. We'll talk about building the house tomorrow."

"Okay." Zhou Ziwen nodded, then looked at Wu Dagang and said with some embarrassment: "Secretary Wu, there is one more thing I need to trouble you with."

"Tell me! What's going on?" Under normal circumstances, Wu Dagang has a good temper, and he handles most things in the village.

As for Captain Zhou, he mainly focuses on the production tasks of the production team, which is the top priority.

"I want to find a place to stay for a few days while the house is being built. As you know, the Educated Youth Home is not spacious to begin with, and it will be even more crowded with us. I will move out to reduce the burden on the Educated Youth Home. ." Zhou Ziwen said with a smile.

At this time, you can't say that you can't stand the smelly feet of educated youths. That would be too hypocritical.
