The Yongxing Reservoir construction project is related to the security of agricultural, industrial water, and drinking water for residents of the entire Hongxing Township, and even the two nearby towns.

so,

For this project, which was listed as a key project in the Jiangnei area, the headquarters was still very picky when recruiting local volunteers.

"Above" requires that every production team and every production brigade must select young men who are strong in body, reliable in thinking, and of good background to "volunteer work."

only,

The engineering headquarters does not care about the meals or wages of these volunteer workers, and only provides a large hut for them to sleep.

If these volunteer workers are injured on the construction site, the headquarters will give them a little disability allowance or something, and that's it.

So since these voluntary workers can't earn anything, why do people still squeeze their heads to do it?

It turns out that there are 10 places in the engineering headquarters for people who were transferred from rural to non-agricultural land, and everyone went there just for the slightest chance...

In addition to the above, the production teams at all levels are given dead orders.

So Production Team 6, like other production teams, selected a few good guys who were born innocent, worked hard, and had pure thoughts to work on the Yongxing Reservoir construction site.

Among them is Yi Yang.

Through the narration of the production team leader Peng Zhikun, Luo Xuan and Dai Hongmei came to understand: It turned out that Yi Yang was reported on at the construction site, and someone said that he had stolen someone else's pen.

Steal other people's property?

At this time, the consequences of this crime are still very serious.

Especially people who can wear fountain pens, who are they?

Who dares to steal their things?

Anyone who can use a pen on a construction site is at least a clerk who earns a living from the public, or a scorekeeper on the construction site.

Yi Yang himself also likes to put a "Hero Brand" pen in his chest pocket.

But he did it purely to show off, and it didn't count.

The cause and course of the incident are not complicated either:

At the Yongxing Reservoir construction site, there was an officer stationed from the county who was responsible for on-site supervision.

Among the thousands of people at the construction site, he gradually noticed a talented person, Yi Yang, who was not as rude as other migrant workers.

so what,

After work, sometimes this clerk would come to Yi Yang and have a casual chat.

This afternoon, Luo Xuan and the others went to the township office to carry the machine, playing gongs and drums.

The officer at the reservoir construction site needed to fill out a lot of reports, so he sent someone to call Yi Yang to his office to help.

Later, the clerk went out because he had something to do.

When he came back, he couldn't find his pen.

In the office at that time, there was only Yi Yang who was helping to sort out the information...

What a coincidence, because Yi Yang had to do heavy physical work earlier that day, he didn't put his pen in his pocket as usual.

The cadre's pen was stolen. This is a serious matter!

A few dollars is not the important thing.

The point is: this matter is related to the purity of the team!

Once things are elevated to this level, their nature is extremely bad and the consequences will be serious.

Immediately, the militia captain from the construction site sent someone to escort Yi Yang back to his Datong bunk.

I plan to look for evidence.

If you turn it over, it will be broken!

After Yi Yang's pen was found, the expressions of the cadres present immediately changed...

And the bad thing about this matter is that the clerk's pen and Yi Yang's pen are both common hero cards.

and,

Neither of them happened to have any words written on it.

The pens are also in similar condition.

At this time, the cadres were all wondering: You are a migrant worker who comes to the construction site to work hard, where did you get the pen?

Do you need a pen?

Even if someone else testifies that Yi Yang did have a pen in the past, it will be difficult to eliminate everyone's doubts...

Yi Yang, who felt deeply that he had been wronged, could not dispel everyone's suspicions even after all kinds of excuses.

then,

Yi Yang, who was greatly stimulated, broke free from the restraints of the militiamen, rushed to the edge of the cliff and jumped...

Hearing this, Dai Hongmei was so excited that her whole body trembled!

She stepped forward, grabbed Peng Zhikun's arm and asked, "How is Yi Yang doing now? Is he injured? Is the injury serious??"

Peng Zhikun just got up this evening and worked hard to carry the threshing machine back to the production team's storage room.

He had just returned home and hurriedly drank two bowls of corn mush when he received a notice from the brigade headquarters saying that something had happened to Yi Yang on the construction site!

The old party secretary asked Peng Zhikun to quickly take people to the township health center to help deal with the matter.

Yiyang's parents died young, leaving him with only three married sisters.

As soon as Peng Zhikun received the notice from the brigade headquarters, where could he go to find Yi Yang's sister?

So he ran to Luo Xuan's house and planned to call Uncle Shang Ding and the others to run to the Hongxing Township Health Center together.

There is no way, now that a problem has arisen, let’s solve it!

Considering that Yi Yang might break his leg if he jumped off the cliff, Luo Xuan went to push the cart out.

Dai Hongmei hurried home, probably to get some money.

Peng Zhikun ran to Uncle Ding's house and called out Uncle Ding and Uncle Zhang.

In the hustle and bustle, everyone is ready.

Light a few torches and prepare to rush to the Hongxing Township Health Center.

Just in time!

I saw two bright lamp posts in the sky, flashing and flashing across the night sky, which was very dazzling.

During this period, the nights in the countryside were very quiet and dark.

Bright car lights like this can be seen even ten miles away.

"Could it be that someone sent Yi Yang back?"

Peng Zhikun looked up at the approaching lights and couldn't help but said, "We have several production teams nearby. Who can still afford to call a car?"

Dai Hongmei stamped her feet anxiously, "Let's go! Let's go to the entrance of the village and have a look. If this car is just passing by, we will stop it and let it take us to the health center!"

All cars are public owned.

Small cars belong to the large units in the county, and large trucks belong to the county automobile transportation service company.

When someone needs a car, they need to submit an application to the county automobile transportation service company, and then they will dispatch the car.

Moreover, you have to give the driver good cigarettes, take care of good food, and say nice words to the smiling face.

Otherwise,

These drivers dare to yell at you, put the gear in neutral, and hit the accelerator for you right where you are!

Anyway, the transportation company charges according to the mileage, and the freight is 1 yuan and 30 cents per kilometer.

Who wouldn’t dare to miss a penny from the government?

Drivers who drive for the government are the ones that rural people cannot afford to mess with. Who dares to block a car randomly?

Peng Zhikun and Uncle Zhang smiled bitterly: This Dai Hongmei is really anxious!

How dare you plan to use a public car to take her to the health center?

I'm not afraid of the driver, give her a wrench?!

But Dai Hongmei had already rushed to the front.

Peng Zhikun, Uncle Zhang, Luo Xuan, and Uncle Ding, who were afraid that she would suffer a loss, had no choice but to follow closely behind and hurried to the entrance of the village.

Everyone had just arrived at the entrance of the village.

After standing there for a while, I saw a large "Gaz" truck parked on the roadside at the entrance of the village with a creaking sound.

The car door opens,

Peng Mangzi, who used to pull red bricks for Luo Xuan, jumped out of the cab and greeted Luo Xuan, "So Luo Xuan, you are also at home? I am planning to go to the countryside to look for him one day when I am not busy.
