Some activists have started picking up cow dung along the road with dung baskets on their shoulders.
Although cow dung also belongs to the commune and cannot be taken back by oneself, if you pick up a lot, you can get praise from the commune.
These days, praise is more satisfying than material rewards.
Shuangshui Village, which had been sleeping all night, woke up, and smoke was rising from the caves of every household.
Shuangshui Village is a notoriously poor place. Most of the villagers' breakfast is black flour steamed buns and pickled cabbage, and their staple food is sorghum, black bean and money porridge.
Life in the family of Tian Futang, the leader of Shuangshui Village Commune, is much better.
On the wooden square table were white flour steamed buns, fried peanuts, and polenta paste. There was an egg in an empty bowl.
"Futang, get up and eat quickly."
Tian Futang put on his gray Chinese tunic suit, hat, and round black cloth shoes. He walked out of the back room, sat on a chair, picked up his chopsticks, and started eating.
At this time, a figure hurriedly walked in from outside.
When Tian Futang heard the footsteps, he frowned vaguely, put down the white steamed buns and looked up. When he saw that the person coming was Sun Yuting, his face became even more gloomy.
"Sun Yuting, what are you doing in such a hurry?"
In Shuangshui Village Commune, Sun Yuting is also a member of the leadership team.
Tian Futang's tone of voice did not sound like he was treating a comrade, but like he was treating an ignorant child.
Sun Yuting seemed to have been used to it for a long time and didn't think it was inappropriate. He pulled up a bench and came to Tian Futang and told him from beginning to end about welcoming Li Weidong yesterday.
After Tian Futang heard this, he was not in the mood to continue eating. He slapped his chopsticks on the table and turned to look at Sun Yuting.
"Sun Yuting, do you mean that Li Weidong wants to control the food in his own hands?"
"Yes, yesterday I proposed that Li Weidong hand over the grain to our Poor Management Committee. Li Weidong rejected it at that time. I originally wanted to stand up and argue with him, but then I thought that he came from above, so I had to
Give him this face."
As Sun Yuting spoke, he looked at Tian Futang's pipe pot with greedy eyes.
Everyone in Shuangshui Village knows that the Tian family's tobacco leaves are of the highest quality, with a mellow taste and no overpowering when smoked. Even big leaders like Tian Fujun always ask for some tobacco leaves from Tian Futang every time they return to Shuangshui Village.
In Shuangshui Village, all the gay men who smoke dry pipes grow tobacco leaves in every household, but Sun Yuting's family is an exception, for no other reason than because he is lazy.
On weekdays, Sun Yuting always gets tobacco leaves from Sun Yuhou.
Seeing Sun Yuting's useless look, Tian Futang was a little disgusted, but he still picked up the pipe and pot and handed it to Sun Yuting.
"I just installed it yesterday, let me share it with you."
"That's so embarrassing..." Sun Yuting said politely, but his hands were not idle. He quickly took it and put the tobacco leaves into his bag. He filled most of the bag, and he was satisfied.
Tian Futang felt a little distressed, but for the sake of the overall situation, he could only endure it at this time.
He took the pipe pot, struck a match and lit it, took two puffs, looked at Sun Yuting and said, "What do you think Li Weidong wants to do?"
"...It's hard to say. Generally speaking, urbanites like them who do aid work do it to gain experience at the grassroots level. As long as they hand over the food to us, they can wander around the countryside for two days.
Go back to the city to get the certificate." Sun Yuting also lit a cigarette and said with a frown.
"But I think... I think... what Li Weidong is doing seems to be trying to seize power!"
As soon as these words came out, Tian Futang's face suddenly darkened.
The reason why he wanted to use Sun Yuting, a loser, was not only that this person always stood by him, but the most important thing was that although Sun Yuting was not serious, he had some vision and was very good at analyzing things. He was his dog-headed strategist.
Tian Futang frowned: "Li Weidong is a city man and has nothing to do with our Shuangshui Village. Why does he want to seize power?"
"This is what I can't understand." Sun Yuting also frowned.
The two chatted for a while, but neither could figure out Li Weidong's real purpose. Finally, Tian Futang said: "Sun Yuting, you are the director of the Poverty Management Committee and are responsible for receiving Li Weidong. You should do nothing else these two days and just keep an eye on Li Weidong.
Look what that kid is planning to do."
"Okay, okay..." Sun Yuting nodded repeatedly and stood up.
At this time, the Futang family came out, looked at Sun Yuting and said, "Yuting, you haven't eaten yet, you might as well have a bite at my house."
People in this era are very hospitable. Anyone who visits someone else's house will be greeted politely by the host.
This was a normal polite remark, but as soon as the words came out of his mouth, the Futang family felt a little regretful.
What am I doing? I know that Sun Yuting is the kind of shameless person...
really.
As soon as he finished speaking, Sun Yuting sat back down again: "Then I'm embarrassed!"
Just kidding, Sun Yuting hasn’t eaten steamed buns for more than two months. How could he miss this opportunity?!
Tian Futang glared at his wife fiercely, but couldn't say anything.
Now because of Li Weidong's arrival, the situation in Shuangshui Village is a little unclear. At this time, he needs to unite more village leaders.
Bear it!
Tian Futang looked at Sun Yuting who was devouring his food and said, "How is it? Is it delicious?"
"It's... delicious, so delicious! This white flour steamed bun seems to be more delicious than anything I've ever eaten before." Sun Yuting said while eating.
Tian Futang was a little proud: "Of course, it is made with Fuqiang powder sent back from the city by Fu Jun. Do you know what Fuqiang powder is?"
"I don't know...but from the name, I know it's something great."
Sun Yuting's awed gaze made Tian Futang feel very helpful. He raised his head and was about to introduce the origin of Fuqiang fans to Sun Yuting.
Sudden.
There was a sound of ringing bells at the entrance of the village.
There is a big bell at the entrance of Shuangshui Village, which has been there since liberation. Every time the bell is rung, it means something big is happening.
At that time, Tian Futang and Sun Yuting heard the bell and took their family to hide in the mountains behind, thus evading the Japanese interrogation.
only.....
Now is the time of peace, who rings the bell!
In particular, even if there is something urgent, you should only inform him, the leader of Shuangshui Village, instead of ringing the bell without permission.
Isn't this a slap in the face?
"I want to see which bastard dares to mess with me!"
Thinking of this, Tian Futang's face suddenly turned ugly. He threw away the white-faced steamed buns, put on his sheepskin coat and strode out.
Sun Yuting was in an awkward situation at this time. He looked at the steamed bun in his hand and wanted to throw it down, but he was reluctant to do so.
These were steamed buns made with Fuqiang powder. Although he didn't know what Fuqiang powder was, Tian Fujun was the leader of the city, so if he could send it back in person, there must be nothing wrong with it.
at last.
Sun Yuting gritted his teeth, laughed twice at the Futang family, put the steamed buns into his pocket, and ran away quickly.
The Futang family was so angry that they stamped their feet in the cave. She had seen thick-skinned people, but she had never seen anyone thick-skinned than a millstone.
....
The sound of the bell is the signal.
The bell is the command.
The bell is the mission.
When the villagers in Shuangshui Village heard the bell ringing, they were stunned for a moment, not knowing exactly what happened.
Immediately they came to their senses, threw away their work, and rushed to the entrance of the village with their families.
Tian Futang became even more anxious when he saw this situation. He, the top leader, didn't know about such a big thing. How ridiculous is it?
"Brother, what's going on? You didn't ring the big bell in our village?" Tian Wanjiang, the breeder of Shuangshui Village, rushed up from behind, looked at Tian Futang, and asked with some surprise.
The Tian family is the largest family in Shuangshui Village. Tian Wanjiang and Tian Futang are of the same generation, so it is not an exaggeration to call them eldest brother.
Tian Futang has always looked down on Tian Wanjiang, who did not work seriously. If he had encountered him in the past, he would have scolded him.
But now that he was thinking about the bell, Tian Futang didn't care so much anymore. He said "I don't know" and ran forward quickly.
Tian Wanjiang had never seen Tian Futang look so panicked, and his heart suddenly hung in his throat.
He can't lift it with his hands or carry it on his shoulders. He works in the commune on weekdays, but because he can't do it, he can only get the same work points as the female comrades every day.
It was because of Tian Futang that he became a breeder, and his work points were the same as those of an adult man. Not to mention, sometimes the pig feed given by his superiors was a good thing.
If Tian Futang really collapses, then his breeder will no longer be able to do it.
"No, we can't. Tian Futang has been the leader for so many years and is the most prestigious person in Shuangshui Village. Who dares to barge against him?"
Thinking like this, Tian Wanjiang's mood gradually improved, and he walked forward humming a ditty with his hands behind his back.
There are many people who feel the same as Tian Wanjiang, such as Tian Wanyou, Tian Haimin, Tian Fushun, Tian Fugao from the Tian family...
As for the people of the Jin family and the Sun family, although they were surprised and suspicious, most of them thought it was a joke.
Tian Futang has been the leader for so many years, but as a result, Shuangshui Village has become increasingly poor and almost has no food to eat. Doesn’t Tian Futang have no responsibility?
When Tian Futang ran to the entrance of the village, people were already crowding under the big locust tree at the entrance of the village.
"Give it, give it!"
When the villagers saw Tian Futang running over, they quickly moved out of the way.
Tian Futang squeezed into the crowd, and when he saw the person ringing the bell, his head was buzzing.
Because the person ringing the bell is Jin Junwu!
The Jin family is a big family in Shuangshui Village. It is powerful enough to compete with the Tian family.
Among the many people in the Jin family, there is no one who Tian Futang is most afraid of, and it would be none other than Jin Junwu.
This person is smart, capable, cautious, and often relies on resourcefulness to do things. He is also skillful in killing pigs, making clay kilns, building pots and stoves, and craftsmanship. He is deeply loved by the villagers.
Although because of Jin Junshan's presence, he cannot be the leader of the Jin family for the time being.
However, he often caused trouble for Tian Futang on weekdays.
Tian Futang strode over and asked with a gloomy face: "Jin Junwu, what are you going to do? Don't you know that ringing the big bell requires the approval of the village committee? Look, everyone in the village is attracted by you.
Alarmed, you better have a good reason today!"
"Secretary Tian, look at what you said, you are the only one who belongs to the village committee, and I, the captain of the second team, also belong to the village committee." Jin Junwu was particularly confident today, turned around and pointed: "
Moreover, Comrade Jin Junshan is also there, he is also from the village committee."
Jin Junshan was hiding in the crowd, but when his name was called by Jin Junwu, he secretly cursed, "This guy is really difficult to deal with," but he had to step out.
Seeing Jin Junshan also appear, Tian Futang felt that something was wrong.
Jin Junshan is the deputy secretary of Shuangshui Village and the director of the village committee.
He always followed his lead. He told Jin Junshan to go east, but Jin Junshan did not dare to go west.
So many years later, Tian Futang almost forgot that Jin Junshan was also a member of the Jin family.
However, he can't get angry now, otherwise the villagers will see that he, the leader, cannot control the situation.
Tian Futang looked at Jin Junshan and said, "Junshan, what is going on?"
Jin Junshan laughed sarcastically, rubbed his hands and said, "Futang, here's the thing. Comrade Li Weidong from the capital suggested that we hold a meeting of all villagers to discuss how to distribute food, because we are afraid of delaying the distribution of food.
Things, we just want to ring the bell."
I'm afraid of wasting time, maybe because he, the leader, won't agree.
Tian Futang sighed in his heart, even though he had calculated everything, he still didn't expect that Li Weidong would take action in this way.
And this approach was something he couldn't stop.
After all, the villagers in Shuangshui Village are now waiting for life-saving food. As the leader of Shuangshui Village, if he stops them at this time, he will be going against all the villagers.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Not to mention that people from the Jin family and Sun family will take the opportunity to attack him, even people from the Tian family will not support him.
This is a real punch to the weak point.
Tian Futang could only grit his teeth and endure it, and said with a smile: "Distributing food is a good thing, but we have already discussed this matter. Comrade Sun Yuting is in charge of poverty alleviation. Is it necessary to hold a village meeting?"
The words have not yet fallen.
A cold voice came from behind him.
"Leader Tian, I would like to ask, does this grain come from your village or from our steel rolling mill?"
Tian Futang felt a chill in his heart, and slowly turned his head to see a tall, tough-faced young man wearing a gray tunic suit walking from behind.
Behind him was Li Dengyun, the county leader.
This person should be Li Weidong, he is indeed a difficult guy.
Tian Futang sneered and said: "Of course it's food for your steel rolling mill...but..."
"No, but since it is food for our steel rolling mill, we have the right to choose the distribution method." Li Weidong walked up to Tian Futang and said coldly: "If you feel it is inappropriate or disagree, you can tell your superiors now
Just file a report and we will take the food back."
As soon as these words came out, there was a burst of discussion among the surrounding villagers.
"Pull us back? Won't you help us?"
"Food belongs to others, and they can give it to anyone they want."
"Yes, when people send food, our village committee always wants to get involved. What's going on?"
"If it were me, I wouldn't have any reason."
....
Hearing the discussion of the villagers, Tian Futang's face turned slightly red.
What a cruel method. He put the village committee on the bonfire with just one sentence.
