Chapter 16 Selling junk

"It is nonsense to say that social progress occurs naturally due to the social ideological conditions in a certain period of history. It is actually achieved overnight only after the society has made up its mind to conduct experiments. This means that the society must be confident, or allow itself to be shocked no matter how it is, and this shock is always given by someone." - French thinker, winner of the 1927 Nobel Prize in Literature Bergson.
What runs through 1978 is a great discussion on the test standards of truth, which has influenced the entire process of China's reform. On the basis of ideological basis, it completely destroyed the political principle of "two whatevers" and advocated a new practical theory. In economic change, it tried to establish a new ideological foundation and business ethics. Until a long time later, we could still strongly feel the impact of this idea on China's reform. In the next few years, it was in line with political mottoes such as "economic construction as the center" and "stability overwhelms everything", and clearly expressed it from the three aspects of methodology, strategic goals and growth boundaries, thus forming China's reform culture and the three major ideological cornerstones. It can be said that in the future, the development of Chinese enterprises and other undertakings will be overturned by a hundred times and forward curves, and this will be the most fundamental starting point and boundary.
At this time, Fan Wubing was holding a newspaper in a daze.
A newly published People's Daily is a very ordinary newspaper. As usual, it is full of political editorials. However, what attracted Fan Wubing's attention was not these timeliness news, but a long report located on the third page of the newspaper, "The masses have created experience in accelerating the pig farming industry." In this article, it detailed the new methods of how Guangxi and Tongxian County, Beijing can improve the efficiency of pig farming, such as "one head can be sold and the other head can be slaughtered", "new methods of public-owned sharing of breeding" and so on.
"What should be come, it's finally coming." Fan Wubing's heart was quite uneasy.
Since the beginning of the year, newspapers have been full of revolution, struggle, and editorial. At that time, raising chickens and growing vegetables were all regarded as capitalist tails and were about to be cut off. The People's Daily actually published an article about raising pigs, and the climate is really changing!
1978 was a very delicate and critical era. Although the "Gang of Four" that implemented the extreme left political line in the past two years had been defeated, some people in the highest leadership of the Party and the country put forward the political proposition of "two whatevers" and implemented ideological governance in the two major areas of politics and economy. The older generation of leaders who had just returned tried to use their influence to promote the change of China's destiny.
The struggle on the public opinion position seems to be more sharp and is no less than other aspects.
The spring river is warm and the duck prophet. Just one article about raising pigs is enough to make many people feel the changes of the seasons and times in this chilly early winter.
Just after the National Day, the adults went to work. A autumn rain had just passed. The sycamore leaves in the yard were covered with the ground. Fan Wubing was bored and dragged out a reclining chair made of bamboo, swayed on it and closed his eyes to rest. Bathed in the warm sunshine, the slight cool breeze was blowing. It was a fairy-like enjoyment.
"Little boy, do you know there is a rags here?" a young voice asked.
Fan Wubing was feeling comfortable all over when he suddenly realized that the sunlight that was shot on his body was blocked by something. When he was about to open his eyes to see what happened, he heard the sound of people talking. After a closer look, he turned out to be a young man in his early twenties.
This man was a little thin and not tall, only about 1.7 meters tall. His clothes were washed white and he had two patches, but they were cleaned up. He revealed a gentle temperament, but he had a firm personality mixed in it. Fan Wubing felt a little curious after seeing it.
This person seems not from the factory!
"Little boy, do you know there is a rags here?" The man asked again when he saw the child in front of him as if he had just woken up.
There was nothing this person could do. There was no adult in the yard. This child seemed to be four or five years old and probably should be sensible. As for the other children, they were still playing with mud in the distance, it was obviously unreliable.
In fact, Fan Wubing is less than three years old. He looks stronger than other children for various reasons, but these are not something that a stranger can see. However, Fan Wubing is a little unhappy at this time.
"What's the one who collects rags?" Fan Wubing narrowed his eyes and looked at the young man opposite him, snorted, "This is the idle item purchase center. What's wrong with you?"
"Idle item purchase center?" The young man was stunned for a moment, carefully pondered what Fan Wubing said before he realized, and said with a smile, "Isn't that the one who collects junk? Are you here? I want to sell some things."
"These are two different things!" Fan Wubing was a little annoyed that others belittled the career he was engaged in, but when he saw that the business came to his door, he could not push it out. So he asked, "I will make the decision on my family's affairs, and the adults don't care. What do you want to sell? Take it out first? I won't accept some things here."
The young man was a little surprised when he heard this, and he was very suspicious of how such a young child could do what an adult did. However, Fan Wubing quickly dispelled his doubts because Fan Wubing lazily took out a handful of things from his arms, nothing else, but a few new great unity.
You should know that now a state-owned enterprise employee only earns dozens of yuan a month. The child in front of him is really a wealthy man. The young man suddenly became enthusiastic and turned around to greet the outside. Two other people of similar age pulled a cart into the yard.
