Turn around and continue working. In fact, the work in the fields could have been completed long ago, but everyone is working hard, so they have to go to the fields every day.
After finally surviving for a day, Jiang Hua, Zhong Yuemin, and Jiang Biyun found Secretary Chang with Zheng Tong's notebook.
As soon as he entered the courtyard, Jiang Hua shouted: "Secretary Chang, is Secretary Chang at home?"
Zhong Yuemin whispered: "He must be at home. Didn't we watch him go home? What were you shouting?"
"In case someone is inconvenient now, shouting is equivalent to knocking on the door."
Zhong Yuemin and Jiang Biyun nodded. They were really learning all the time. In the city, they didn't live in large courtyards, so they had to knock on the door. They really didn't adapt to the countryside when they first arrived.
"Are you there? Let's talk in the room."
There were five children sitting on the kang in Party Secretary Chang's house, all of them had dishes to eat, and one of them was holding a night of cornmeal in the wild vegetables, inhaling the delicious fragrance.
Seeing the three people arriving, Party Secretary Chang was also polite: "It's you three, do you want anything? Let's have something together."
Zhong Yuemin looked at the bottom of the wild vegetable lake in the big basin on the table, so what else could feed the three of them?
Jiang Hua shook his head and said, "No, it's too far. Let's discuss something with you."
I guess Secretary Chang didn't understand the meaning of "biased", but he understood what he said later about "discussing something", so he drank the lake in two sips, picked up the pipe and pot, and walked into the yard with the three of them.
.
The three of them sat on stools. Secretary Chang squatted on the millstone in the yard, lit the pipe pot, and took a nice puff.
"Just tell me if you have anything to do!"
Jiang Hua took the seat and said: "Secretary Chang, we have been in the village for a few days, and we have learned a lot about the things in the village. Some families are about to run out of food, so we are discussing some countermeasures."
Hearing this, Secretary Chang paused in his smoking motion, thinking that I might have been found out if I had seized their grain.
"Secretary Chang, I see that the main crops grown in the village are wheat and corn. The wheat is paid to the public grain, and I am reluctant to eat the remaining white flour. However, I see that there are still many fragments of land in the fields that are not fully utilized. Is it possible to plant some?
Sweet potatoes and potatoes, these things have a large yield and can survive in critical times."
When Party Secretary Chang heard that it was not about youth rations, he felt relieved, took a puff of cigarette and said, "Go on, I see you have written down a lot in that little notebook, what else is there?"
"The front and back of your house are empty. Can you plant some pumpkins? This thing has a large yield and can be used as a vegetable to fill your stomach."
Chang Gui nodded, but said nothing.
"Also, the compost in the village is just a pile of livestock and human excrement collected by the villagers. It cannot play its maximum role. It can be improved so that the fertility is better. Earthworms can also be raised in the dung pile, which will be harmful to the dung pile.
Fermentation also has benefits.”
Chang Gui asked: "What is Earthworm?"
"It's the Strong Earth Insect."
Chang Gui nodded. Although he didn't understand, it didn't stop him from nodding.
"There are also sheep raised in the village. There is relatively little grass around here, and the sheep are almost thin. I suggest that we raise chickens. The strong groundworms raised in the manure pile can be used as chicken feed. After eating the strong groundworms, the chickens will grow taller.
It’s fast and lays lots of eggs.”
Chang Gui's face looked happy, but he still didn't speak.
"If you raise more chickens, the chicken manure can also be used as fertilizer. You can achieve multiple benefits with one stone."
Jiang Biyun said: "There is another thing. The children in the village do not go to school every day. They will not be blind when they grow up, so we need to make the children literate."
Chang Gui knocked his pipe and pot, and the old man said calmly: "After all, he is an educated young man from the capital. He knows a lot. I know what you said, which is good, but we farmers don't understand."
Jiang Hua closed his notes and said: "Secretary Chang, you didn't understand before, but now we educated young people are here. We want to receive your education and help you. We report this matter to you just to take over the matter."
, we will take command, and the village will cooperate with us to ensure that the villagers can have enough to eat."
Secretary Chang nodded: "That's the truth, but we need to talk about it at the village organization meeting so that everyone can discuss it."
"We should not only tell it at the organizational meeting, but also make it clear to all the villagers."
Chang Gui smiled and lit a pot of cigarettes. He was very satisfied with these three children. They were not arrogant and sensible. They were all good children.
"Well, I have something else to ask."
Jiang Hua was stunned for a moment and said, "Are you asking?"
"If potatoes, pumpkins and chickens are planted in every corner, are they considered collective or in individual houses?"
Jiang Hua smiled bitterly and said: "Party Secretary, given the current situation, these things can only be regarded as collective."
"I'm afraid that won't work. You kids have also seen that when you do collective work, you have to work hard one by one. If these tasks are added, I'm afraid you will be even less willing to do it."
"So, this depends on the power of the organization. We must make it clear to the villagers. Those who don't understand must be broken apart and crushed. Explain clearly to them and let them know that this is done entirely for their own benefit.
, we young people will also help the organization to work together."
Secretary Chang banged his pipe and pot, stuck it into his waist and said, "I understand, let's have the comrades of the organization hold a meeting overnight. If it happens, you guys must take it seriously."
Zhong Yuemin patted his chest and said, "Secretary Chang, don't worry. I have never been so serious in my life. I will definitely do a good job for you."
"You go back first, and I will give you a letter after the organization meeting has discussed it."
After saying that, Party Secretary Chang hurriedly walked out of his yard. He was a terrible Party Secretary. He worried about the food rations of the villagers all day long. As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw a serious food problem. Now the educated youth are willing to help, regardless of whether they have it or not.
He wanted to try it.
Jiang Biyun looked at Jiang Hua, thought for a moment and asked, "Can we consider this a success?"
Zhong Yuemin scratched his head and said, "I don't know."
Jiang Hua said firmly: "Half the success is achieved. At least the standing party secretary is willing to hold an organizational meeting instead of turning a deaf ear to our suggestions. Even if they are suspicious, we can convince them."
Jiang Biyun said with some guilt: "This feels more nervous than taking an exam in school."
"Of course, this is related to the survival of hundreds of people. It's a human life. Not to mention you, I'm a little nervous."
Zhong Yuemin laughed: "Brother, this is the first time I've seen you nervous. The last time I received an award for meritorious service and brought a big red flower on the podium, I never saw you nervous."
