Qin Sanmao threw away his hoe and ran over. Behind him came the shouts of the commune members: "Captain, don't step on the wheat seedlings."
"I know, I know, we are all from Laozhuang family, how could I step on the wheat seedlings? Stop shouting, Brother Donglai is back, everyone, come here quickly."
Qin Sanmao shouted and rushed to Li Donglai.
When he saw that there was no sign of diligence around Li Donglai, he looked slightly disappointed: "Brother Donglai, why didn't my brother come back?"
"Your brother is working in the workshop right now, helping you earn money to get a wife!"
Qin Sanmao is 20 years old this year.
At his age, some children in Qinjiagou are already three or four years old.
Qin Sanmao's father is also very worried about Qin Sanmao. In the past two years, he has asked people to introduce Qin Sanmao to his daughter-in-law.
However, the subjects introduced are all tall and thick, and are good at work, but their bodies are too strong.
Qin Sanmao is also a discerning man. He wants to find a wife who is similar to Li Donglai's wife.
It's hard to hurt Qin Sanmao's father now.
She looks similar to Ding Qiunan, and there really isn't one near Qinjiagou.
There is no other way but to expand the scope.
Qin Sanmao's father also commissioned a matchmaker to select girls within a radius of thirty to forty miles.
Don't tell me, he actually found one.
The girl's name is Huang Yuehua. She is nineteen years old. She has a slim figure and good looks. She is a famous beauty from all over the country.
And they still have culture and knowledge.
Now I am a substitute teacher in a commune primary school.
Qin Sanmao's name was not very good, but he was good-looking.
He is 1.7 meters tall, has a fair face, and looks like a city dweller when he wears clean clothes.
When the two met, they both fancied each other.
but.
Huang Yuehua's parents felt that Qin Sanmao was just a rural commune member and not worthy of Huang Yuehua.
So a harsh condition was imposed.
If Qin Sanmao wants to win Huang Yuehua's gift, he must be a big fat pig.
Life in rural areas is quite difficult these days. Who can have a big fat pig?
The Qin family's only hope is Qin Fen.
He now has a monthly salary of more than 30 yuan. If he can save it for half a year, he might be able to buy a big fat pig.
While the two were talking, the village chief Qin Sanmin heard the news and rushed over.
He handed Li Donglai a cigarette and asked with a smile: "Donglan, you are so busy in the factory, why are you free to come back today?"
It was already late when Li Dong came to see him, and without delaying things, he told the story about the steel rolling mill going hunting in the mountains behind Qinjiagou.
"Don't worry, village chief. I am both the leader of the steel mill and a member of our village. I will definitely deal with this matter and will not let our village suffer."
Qin Sanmin smiled honestly and said: "Don't forget to pay attention to how many things our Qinjiagou has done over the years. How can I still not trust you?"
"It's just that this matter involves all members, we still have to hold a members meeting to discuss it."
In this era, the commune was not the sole voice of the secretary. It adopted democratic centralism. On many major issues, it was necessary to convene a plenary session of the World Security Conference to discuss together.
If the opinions are not unanimous, members still need to vote.
Li Donglai often attended members' meetings back then, but he didn't expect that when he attended the meeting again after so many years, he would actually attend as a guest.
The members' meeting was held in the commune's dilapidated auditorium.
The auditorium used to be a small temple built by the landlord for the ancestors. In the past two years, the members emptied the temple and found a few broken benches and tables as a meeting place.
Under the guidance of Qin Sanmao, Li Donglai went to the auditorium to rest first.
Qin Sanmin took several team leaders to inform everyone.
Soon the big bell on the big locust tree at the entrance of the village rang loudly.
When the members heard the bell ringing quickly, they thought something had happened, so they gathered up their belongings and rushed into the village.
When they saw that the village was peaceful, the members were very confused.
"What happened to the village chief?"
"Li Donglai is back. He has something big going for him. Let's all go to the auditorium to discuss it together."
There were more than 100 people in Qinjiagou, and they all gathered in the auditorium in just half an hour.
Although Li Donglai doesn't come back often, most people still know him.
Only a few half-grown children who have just grown up are a bit unfamiliar.
Several great gods in the village led the children to Li Donglai and introduced him one by one.
"Donglai, this is the sixth grandson of the old Zhang family at the end of the village. His name is Xiao Shitou."
"Come on, little stone, call Uncle Donglai. Your uncle Donglai is a big leader in the city. You must study hard and be like uncle Donglai in the future. Then my mother will enjoy the blessings with you."
Li Donglai looked at the cute and well-behaved children and inevitably took out a few candies from his pocket and gave them to them.
The children were so excited that they sang and danced when they got the candies.
The air in the conference room was full of joy.
When the village chief Qin Sanmin saw that all the members had arrived, he picked up an iron bucket and banged it hard with a stick.
"Everyone, please be quiet and let me say a few words."
The conference room suddenly became quiet.
"Dear young and old men, Li Donglai has found another good thing for us today. A steel factory is going to join forces with our Qinjiagou Commune... to open... to open..."
Halfway through, Qin Sanmin couldn't remember what the word was, so he simply said loudly: "It's those jackals, tigers and leopards in the back mountain of our two families' joint daily lane!"
As soon as these words came out, the members' eyes widened with excitement.
It is said that people who rely on mountains and rivers can eat water.
Qinjiagou is close to the mountains, but it doesn't get much benefit.
On the contrary, because there are too many wild animals on the mountain, a lot of food is lost every year.
In the first few years, children in the village were often picked up by wild wolves in the mountains.
later.
Village chief Qin Sanmin established a joint defense team based on Li Donglai's suggestion, and selected more than 20 capable young men from the militia and divided them into three groups.
Every night, three groups of people patrol around the clock. Once a wild wolf is discovered entering the village, on the one hand, they will chase and intercept it, and on the other hand, they will wake up the villagers by beating gongs, so that the villagers can mobilize collectively to deal with the wild wolves.

"I agree that those wild beasts on the mountain are not good for us at all and should have been eliminated long ago."
"Why is there no benefit? Those beasts are meat, I think we should consider it carefully."
"The steel factory is a large state-owned factory, can it benefit us?"
"Let's listen to what the village chief has to say."
The commune members of this era were both honest and cunning.
They can be honest to people in a village and help others without hesitation.
But when facing outsiders, he didn't seem particularly fussy.
Especially for something as big as the wild beast in the back mountain, they are not willing to suffer a loss.
Qin Sanmin understood the temperament of the villagers and went on to say: "Donglai came out of our village. He will definitely not let us suffer. Now let's listen to what Comrade Donglai has to say."
Li Donglai felt a sigh of relief in his heart. He didn't expect that in just a few years, the village chief Qin Sanmin had become cunning.
He stood up, looked around, and said loudly: "Dear young and old gentlemen, the steel rolling mill has proposed a plan. The steel rolling mill will send people to block the beasts in the mountains behind us, and then according to the weight of the hunted beasts, we will be divided into
Our industrial supplies.”
As soon as these words came out, there was a lot of discussion below.
"Do industrial supplies also have flashlights? My house is short of a flashlight right now."
"That's for sure. Think about it, you need an industrial ticket to buy a flashlight. Aren't flashlights just industrial supplies?"
"This is great, my house is short of two enamel basins."
"My family wants three feet of cloth. If you look at the clothes on my body, they no longer look like me."
In this era, farmers have almost no way to obtain industrial votes.
If you want to buy some industrial supplies, such as enamel jars, spoons, etc., you need to use the eggs you have saved at home for a long time and exchange them for some industrial tickets at the pigeon market in the city.
It often takes twenty or thirty eggs to exchange for one or two industrial tickets. You can imagine the hardship involved.
Now the steel factory is willing to give out industrial guns in exchange for the wild beasts on the mountain. I am very excited.
Li Donglai continued: "At the same time, the wild beasts on the mountain are also food for our commune. The leaders of the steel factory also agreed to provide food stamps to our commune members in addition to industrial stamps."
"Food stamps! Oh my God! Doesn't this mean our commune has made money in vain?"
"Yes, I prefer eating stick noodles to those wild boar meats."
It’s not that the members don’t know that meat is delicious. It’s just that if you ask them to choose between three kilograms of stick noodles and one kilogram of meat, they will definitely choose stick noodles.
It’s good to have enough food these days, so why else eat meat?
Qin Sanmin also didn't expect that the steel rolling mill would offer food stamps in exchange.
He looked at Li Donglai and asked worriedly: "Will the leaders of your factory agree to Donglai's favorable terms?"
"Uncle Sanmin, don't worry, the steel rolling mill is developing very well now, and it gets a lot of subsidies from the company every year. These food stamps are nothing."
"Okay, okay, since you are so confident, I won't say anything more."
Qin Sanmin stood up, looked at the members and said: "Dear young and old gentlemen, the treatment provided by the Zhi Steel Factory is so generous. If we continue to care about it, it will be a bit unkind.
Now I suggest that everyone start voting to agree to cooperate with the steel mill, take out a bean and put it in the glass jar next to it. Those who disagree should just sit where they are and don't move."
The village party secretary took out a can and bottle, walked to the venue and asked the members to vote.
There is no suspense about the outcome of the vote.
The steel rolling mill has such favorable conditions that people can find wild beasts wherever they go.
The voting results will be tallied soon.
All villagers unanimously agreed to cooperate with the steel rolling mill.
This isn't the end yet.
Some villagers even suggested that they could help the steel factory go into the mountains to hunt wild animals.
Of course Li Donglai couldn't refuse.
Although the weapons of the villagers are all old and worn-out guns, they have grown up here and know the situation in the mountains very well. If they lead the way, the hunting operation will definitely be a success.
This time when he returned to Qinjiagou, Li Donglai took the agreement with him in order not to fall into the blame of others.
The agreement has all the terms and conditions and has the seal of the steel rolling mill.
"Donglai, you drew up this agreement yourself, so we don't need to read it."
Qin Sanmin signed and sealed the agreement as he spoke.
But he was stopped by Li Donglai: "Uncle Sanmin, this cooperation is not between you and me, but between Qinjiagou and Zha Steel Factory."
"Brothers have to settle accounts clearly, not to mention we are two units, so if we want to have a happy cooperation, we must figure out all the details."
Qin Sanmin nodded: "Yes, yes, Donglai, you are right."
Qin Sanmin and the accountant studied the agreement together, and after making sure there were no problems, they signed it and stamped it with the commune's seal.
Li Donglai returned to the capital overnight, and the steel rolling mill handed over the agreement to the director.
The factory director looked at the seal on the agreement and said loudly: "Comrade Donglai, you have done a great job this time. I will hold a meeting tomorrow and ask comrades from the Armed Forces Department to organize a hunting team to go to Qinjiagou.
"
At this point, Director Yang suddenly raised his head, looked at Li Donglai and said: "Comrade Li Denglai, you are responsible for this matter. I think you should be the captain of the hunting team."
"Am I the captain of the hunting team?" Li Donglai looked a little surprised.
In his plan, as long as he leads the red line between the steel rolling mill and Qinjiagou, he can retire like a matchmaker without getting involved in specific affairs.
Director Yang stood up, poured an enamel jar of tea and handed it over: "Comrade Donglai, I know this request may be a bit presumptuous. After all, you still have a lot to do in the laboratory, but besides you, I can't think of any other candidates."
I’m more suitable for this job.”
When he saw Li Donglai trying to stand up, he stretched out his hand and patted Li Donglai hard twice: "Comrade Donglai, most of the comrades in the Armed Forces Department and the National Defense Department of our steel rolling mill are from the capital, and they are still young people."
"Young people are very angry. If they go to Qinjiagou, they will go too far and offend the comrades in Qinjiagou."
"The good thing we planned with great difficulty this time will turn into a bad thing, which will not only damage the interests of our steel rolling mill and Qinjiagou Commune, but also have a negative impact on the reputation of our steel rolling mill."
"You have a good reputation in Qinjiagou. You are also a cadre in our steel rolling mill. You have a good relationship with Section Chief Zhou of the Security Department. With you as the team leader, you will definitely be able to shock those young people."
Director Yang is an old factory director and has always been rigorous in doing things. He has already thought of relevant details before the plan is launched.
Li Donglai heard this, thought for a moment, and finally nodded in agreement.
Just as Factory Director Yang said, if there is a conflict, it will not be a good thing for both parties.
Factory Director Yang was overjoyed when he saw that Li Donglai had agreed to serve as the captain of the hunting team. He immediately held a factory committee meeting overnight, at which he announced the formation of a hunting team.
The hunting team consists of twenty capable young men, who are elite soldiers drawn from the Armed Forces Department and the Security Section.
At the same time, he also asked the Purchasing Department to purchase light industrial products in the capital, and agreed to set off for Qinjiagou in three days to carry out hunting activities.
