MTL - The Era of Hard Work-Chapter 25 Big picture and small home
Chapter 25 The Big Picture and the Small Family
At 7:30 in the morning, Lu Dong arrived at Shilibao Market on time and came to Niu Ge's paving.
Brother Niu is directing people to unload the goods at the booth of the shop. Several large fans of pork are hung up, pig hooves are piled on the stall, and pig tails are running up a few.
He saw Lu Dong and said, "Little brother, wait a minute."
"No hurry, you are busy first." Lu Dong found a Maza and sat down at the booth to rest.
The groceries sold here, and the unloading person came with a large bucket of oval-shaped things. Lu Dong glanced at it, and it turned out to be a bucket of white waist.
It is normal to think that Brother Niu has customers from BBQ Street.
The delivery person left, and Brother Niu placed a big pig head on the stall. The pig head was not completely treated, and there were still hairs in places such as the cochlea and nostrils. Ordinary people would feel a little panic when they saw it.
Lv Dong is a common sight. In the past, he helped his mother handle the water during the Chinese New Year, and often split pigs with an axe.
Later, in order to attract customers, many shops slaughtered sheep and donkeys on the street. The **** scene always attracted a large number of old gluttons to stop.
"Little brother!" Brother Niu greeted Lu Dong.
An aunt came over, pointed at the pig's head and asked, "Boss, cut this pig's head in half for me."
Brother Niu didn't move: "If you want it, you need all of it, how can you cut it in half."
Aunt glared at Brother Niu: "Are you doing this kind of business?"
Brother Niu seemed to know that arguing would only lead to defeat, so he didn't say anything at all, and asked Lu Dong to go to the electronic scale together.
Knowing that the monkey was pouring on the plastic basket to drain water, Brother Niu chatted with Lv Dong for a few words, pointed to the bucket next to the mountain buffalo, and asked, "Can you catch this thing?"
Lu Dong said directly: "There are many mountains and grasslands, and my plains are cultivated everywhere."
In fact, there are also in the fruit forest, but the number is very small.
Brother Niu is not without regrets: "There are several companies who ask for it by name. This thing is not easy to get, and the price is higher than that of Jinchan."
Lu Dong had nowhere to get them. Even if he could catch them, there would be at most a few. He pointed to the pig's head and asked, "Brother Niu, how do you sell pigs in the water?"
"It depends on which part to buy." Brother Niu said roughly: "If you buy a whole set, it will be roughly half the price."
he asked: "Do you want to buy it?"
Lu Dong said casually: "Ask. In my old village, many people are good at boiling water."
Brother Niu came to be interested: "A lot of people do this business?"
Lu Dong shook his head: "No, just one family."
"Why?" Brother Niu's interest dissipated, and then he was puzzled, and wanted to understand: "What age is this, and still holding those old-fashioned ideas."
Lu Dong smiled: "It's hard to tell about the older generation."
Looking at the entire eastern region, the degree of conservatism in Taidong is first-class.
Knowing that the monkey drained the water, Brother Niu simply picked and threw away a few that were obviously black. He glanced at the scale: "5 jins and 6 taels, the price will increase today, and I will give you 15 yuan 5."
When Lu Dong came over, he inquired about the price, and Brother Niu gave Lu Dong 87 yuan.
Then, Brother Niu went into the house, took out a bottle of water, and threw it to Lu Dong: "Drink on the way."
Lü Dong looked down and upgraded it again—Ice Sprite!
Brother Niu is indeed an interesting person.
Because there were no leeches, Lu Dong didn’t need to go to the West Market. He got on his bicycle and walked back, returning to the orchard after nine o’clock.
Hu Chunlan told Lu Dong that Lu Zhenlin asked him to go to the brigade after lunch and go to the county together in the afternoon.
Lv Dong saw that it was still early, so he carried the fishing net and water bag and went to the river again.
As the water potential became weaker, the number of fish also decreased. Lu Dong cast a few nets. Except for the small fish, most of them were catfish or gargoyles.
Near noon, Lu Dong returned to the orchard, put a few catfish into the water tank, and threw Gaya and other small fish into the basin, and let the old lady send them off.
After lunch, Lu Dong rode on the 28th pole and went to the brigade. He arrived too early, and Li Wenyue was alone in the office.
"You came early enough." Lu Dong pulled out a chair and sat across from his desk: "A guest accountant addicted?"
Li Wenyue put down his pen: "I have nothing to do during the holidays, but I want to go to work on the construction site." He lit up his thin arms as thin as a bamboo pole: "My dad won't let me go, because I'm afraid that I won't earn enough money to see a doctor."
Lu Dong knew that he was frail and sick since he was a child: "Stay in peace."
In addition to Lv Zhenlin, the Lvjia Village Committee has an accountant and a female director.
Other positions are concurrently held. Many Li Wenyue who can count and write, others are a lot easier.
Li Wenyue was worried: "This is not the way."
Lu Dong asked, "What's wrong?"
Li Wenyue looked outside the office door and lowered his voice a little: "I heard the third grandfather talking to my second uncle in the morning." His second uncle is the brigade accountant: "The overall quota for retention has been set, 160 yuan per person, and it is required to be received within two months. together."
Like public grain, living in the countryside, it is impossible not to deal with the overall planning and retention, and the specific amount and payment time vary from region to region.
Lu Dong put his arms on the table: "320 yuan, fortunately I made some money recently."
The 1,000 yuan earned from Chia Tai is about to go out for nearly a third before it is warmed up.
Li Wenyue knows how to calculate: "There are only two people in your family, and there are grandparents in my family. Let me calculate, five people are 800. Then there is the money for my schooling, and my father will feel uncomfortable."
His dad worked as a major worker at the university town construction site: "My dad wants to pay his salary on the Mid-Autumn Festival. He has to ask for it in advance. Dongzi, ask for the salary in advance. Is it because the construction station does not give the Mid-Autumn Festival welfare?"
As a collective enterprise, the county and town construction stations have good performance, and even those who work on the construction site will have benefits during the festivals.
Lu Dong recalled and said, "It seems that there is such a thing." He suggested: "Tell the third grandfather and ask him to make a phone call. After all, the fifth grandfather is in charge of the third construction company."
Li Wenyue thought it was a solution: "Let my grandfather tell the third grandfather that my weight is light."
Lu Dong gave a suggestion: "Don't mention it yet. Wen Yue, when your college entrance examination results come out, it's best to get a notice and then mention it, to ensure that there is no problem."
These days, college students, especially the key undergraduates, are still highly valued.
It is not surprising that Li Wenyue attaches great importance to the basics. With the tradition of Lujia Village, he not only pays attention to it, but also expresses it.
Li Wenyue is not stupid at all. What he lacks is social experience. After listening to Lu Dong's words, he thought about it for a while, then tilted his head to look at Lu Dong: "Dongzi, you have changed a lot."
Lu Dong raised Erlang's legs: "This is called enlightenment, do you understand!"
said that, but he was thinking about it in his heart. The amount to be set aside from the co-ordination was calculated, and the debt for the rest of the public grain depends on the market price of apples.
Guoguang's price is really worrying.
Lu Zhenlin came in at this time, two thick eyebrows were twisted together, and he said to Li Wenyue: "When your second uncle comes, someone will call again to say that the coordinator will take care of you, let him deal with it first, and don't give guarantees and deadlines! Someone is looking for me. Just say I'm not here, and then there's a flood of water, do you want people to live?"
Li Wenyue responded, but Lu Dong did not speak, nor could he speak.
Lu Zhenlin greeted Lu Dong: "Go, go to the county."
Lv Zhenlin took a rolled up pennant and stuffed it into the cloth pocket of the bicycle beam. He and Lv Dong each rode the 28th pole to the county.
Ningxiu Town is the county seat. The town government is located next to the Ningxiu Cinema not far to the east of the station. Lv Dong and Lv Zhenlin arrived in only ten minutes.
Lu Zhenlin came over from time to time for meetings, and he was familiar with the way, and led Lu Dong directly to the second floor of the three-story office building.
The clerk whom I met during the flood received the two.
"Mayor Yang is on the phone, you can sit down for a while."
Compared to many staff in these years, the clerk is more polite, and each person poured a glass of water.
"Thank you." Lu Dong was polite.
Lu Dong was very impressed by this officer. When he was carrying sandbags to block the opening, he directed the propaganda officers with cameras to circle around the town mayor.
After the clerk left, Lu Dong looked out the window, construction was going on behind the town hall compound.
Lu Zhenlin glanced at it and said, "The editors and teachers in the town raised funds to build a building. Each person will pay 20,000 yuan, and we will make up for it later depending on the situation."
"Dongzi, it's not a bad thing if you want to go after school." He repeated his old words: "Young, indeterminate, it's fine to work for two years, and then let Jianguo find a factory in the county to find a system."
His eyes fell on the construction site: "There is a system to ensure security."
The third grandfather came out of good intentions, Lu Dong didn't say much, just answered.
Society is changing rapidly, and it is also impacting decades of traditional ideas.
After seven or eight minutes, the clerk came over and took Lu Dong and Lu Zhenlin to the next office. Someone stood up from behind the desk and took the initiative to shake hands with Lu Zhenlin.
"Classmate Lu Dong." Yang Liewen also shook hands with Lu Dong: "We meet again."
"Mayor Yang, hello." Lu Dong would not lack politeness.
At the same time, he took a quick glance. The young mayor was wearing gold-rimmed glasses, a white shirt and black trousers.
is very focused on personal image.
Yang Liewen spoke to Lu Zhenlin, but Lu Dong wisely kept silent.
Quannan has defined the Qingzhao River flood as a once-in-a-fifty-year event. Although Ningxiu Town was in a critical situation such as Lvjia Village and Majia Village, there was no breach in any place, and they all survived safely.
For Yang Liewen, the crisis has successfully turned into an opportunity.
However, what Lu Zhenlin wanted was more realistic.
"The impact of this flood is quite large, and the neighboring villages have given a lot of assistance." Lu Zhenlin always considers only Lujia Village: "If it is said to be free rescue, Lujia Village can't really be free, and you must show something. Mayor Yang, look at the overall plan to keep the village. Can this piece be loosened so that Lu Jiacun can take a breath, the pressure is really high..."
Yang Liewen, who came down from the agency, had not studied it carefully before, but he has experienced it deeply in the past two months: "Old Lu, I know that Lujia Village is difficult, and the town is also trying to find a way to help Lujia Village solve practical problems. The sand and gravel of the Third Construction Company, I've already communicated that they don't charge a penny."
Speaking of this matter, Lu Zhenlin was a little unhappy. The older generation of village leaders did not buy the account of the young town cadres: "My fifth brother is in charge of the third company, where did he come from? Mayor Yang, you do not know?"
Yang Liewen is too capable of exploiting loopholes. Maybe when he took over this errand, he knew that the person in charge of the third company was from Lujia Village.
These people who have been mixed in big institutions are all exquisite!
Yang Liewen has just arrived, and his style is relatively soft, but he is still Lu Zhenlin's immediate boss, and sitting in this position, he must consider the situation of the whole town: "This flood, Ningxiu Town is not only affected by Lujia Village, but Lujia Village is loosened, what about other villages? Do you want to start the work? Lao Lu, you have to consider the overall situation."
Lu Zhenlin's brows trembled: "I don't care about other villages, I belong to Lujia Village, I only care about Lujia Village! Only responsible for Lujia Village."
Yang Liewen had to emphasize his tone: "Comrade Lu!"
Local small groupism! In the eyes of these people, only one-third of their own acre of land!
Lv Zhenlin knew how to organize and disciplined himself, so he didn't argue any more. He said, "The embankment of Lvjia Village needs to be rebuilt. The dilapidated house in the elementary school told me to fight twice a year..."
Yang Liewen also has a headache, but the work needs to be done one by one, and it is easier to make mistakes in a hurry: "After this special period, I will study it again."
He glanced at Lu Dong: "Lao Lu, go to the third floor."
Lu Zhenlin understood: "I'm going to talk to Lao Liang."
Lao Liang is the leader of the town, but he is about to arrive, so he doesn't care much anymore.
Ask for a recommendation ticket! Ask for collection! Ask for support!
