Chapter 479: Establishing the White Ya Mountain work team
Su Mingzhe brought everyone together to talk about one thing: building a school for students.
"I have already contacted the brick and tile factories and cement factories in the county. After the spring of next year, things will be brought in and the reconstruction of the primary school will begin. However, water from afar cannot put out a fire that is near."
As Su Mingzhe spoke, he pointed at the roof that was leaking air and light:
"It's still four or five months until the spring of next year. It will take almost a year to move into a new school. We can't let the children continue to live in such a house and suffer for another year, right?"
A group of ordinary people looked at the roof and walls, their eyes a little moved.
This house is indeed big, but it leaks air and rain, which is really not good.
Children studying in such a classroom are indeed prone to catching colds.
Seeing that his words were recognized, Su Mingzhe continued:
"I have collected a lot of wood in the past few months since I came to our village. This time I went to Jichun City and purchased a lot of tools for bricklayers and carpenters. Now that everyone has a leisure time, I hope that everyone
Everyone signed up enthusiastically and actively participated in the action of repairing the current school. I can provide a lunch with meat every day."
"Su Zhiqing, I sign up!"
"Su Zhiqing, I'll sign up too."
As Su Mingzhe's words fell to the ground, the villagers, who had only had sympathy at first, suddenly became excited.
No matter what vision you talk about or what pie you paint, nothing can move people's hearts as much as the real thing.
These villagers signed up one after another, some because of the lunch provided by Su Mingzhe, and some because they heard that Su Mingzhe had bricklayer's and carpenter's tools.
With these things, everyone can learn bricklaying and carpentry.
In the future, during the off-season, men who have learned a craft can go to work in the city and earn some extra money.
Seeing that everyone's attitude was quite positive, Su Mingzhe nodded slightly and asked the old village chief to record everyone's names and work points.
The matter of repairing the houses in the educated youth spots was thus decided.
When these people were leaving, Su Mingzhe suddenly spoke again and told him about buying a sewing machine. In the future, everyone can come and use it for free, but they need to bring their own thread for the sewing machine.
The dozen or so women who came to the meeting were overjoyed to hear this.
In the past, when clothes at home were torn, they would be mended slowly with needles. Now that we have sewing machines, we don’t need to do so manually.
However, few women in the village know how to use sewing machines.
Su Mingzhe had to find Yu Hong, a female educated youth who knew how to use a sewing machine, and asked her to teach him first.
On the other side, after the villagers approached the old village chief to sign up, they gave the list to Su Mingzhe.
"Su Zhiqing, a total of thirty-two villagers are willing to work here. Do you think you can make arrangements?"
"Don't say thirty-two, even seventy-two can be arranged."
Su Mingzhe chuckled. He had many plans in his mind, and repairing the school was just an appetizer.
"Village chief, tell these people who signed up that they can come to work at seven o'clock tomorrow morning."
Su Mingzhe said, send everyone off and let Wang Quan come out and kill the wild boar.
Under Su Mingzhe's training, Wang Quan was very skilled even if he became a butcher.
The other three female educated youths had already boiled a pot of water. When Wang Quan finished bleeding, they immediately brought out the hot water and asked Wang Quan to quickly remove the hair and skin of the wild boar.
As for Su Mingzhe, he turned around and entered the mountain again.
The school building repair work went very smoothly.
The next day, the villagers began to come over to start work, and they did whatever Su Mingzhe asked them to do.
As time slowly moved forward, about half a month later, Su Mingzhe selected twelve villagers who worked honestly and had flexible hands and feet, and upgraded them to "big workers".
As for other villagers who do not work, they can only be "little workers" and help them.
The pay for big workers and small workers is also different.
As long as you are a big worker, the school will not only provide lunch, but also take home a pound of meat after get off work.
No matter how angry the workers are at this obvious 'discriminatory' treatment, there is nothing they can do.
After all, if they don't work for themselves, they can't blame others.
Then, another half month passed.
Under the guidance of Su Mingzhe, five more of these twelve "big workers" were successfully upgraded to "masters".
The treatment of the 'master' is even better than that of the 'big worker'. Not only can he bring meat home, he can go to work every day, and he is also given fifty cents as wages.
Driven by such tangible benefits, more and more villagers came to work in the village, eventually reaching sixty-six.
The ‘job level’ of many people has also been successfully upgraded.
At present, there are 42 "small workers" in the work team, 15 "big workers", five "masters" and "four masters".
According to the salary classification, "little workers" only get one lunch.
After the 'big work' is completed, you can take home a pound of meat.
The 'master' can not only take home a pound of meat, but also get 50 cents.
The 'Master Chef' received the best salary, not only a pound of meat and a dollar, but he even participated in work arrangements. When Su Mingzhe and the village chief were away, they arranged the work.
It's mid-December in the blink of an eye.
The school buildings have long been repaired.
Su Mingzhe also led a "work team" to go door to door in the village and repaired all the roofs and houses.
To repair the villagers' houses, Su Mingzhe no longer needs to provide materials. He only needs to continue to provide lunch.
On this day, I saw that all the houses in the village were strengthened and repaired.
Su Mingzhe found the old village chief and proposed that he should take people out to purchase supplies.
The old village chief naturally agreed immediately.
This time, the person who will go home with Su Mingzhe, according to the order of the previous draw, is Wang Quan.
Wang Quan left home in July and has not been home for half a year.
Unlike the three female educated youths, Wang Quan made money even though he did dirty work.
Su Mingzhe promised him that he would receive 10% of the leather goods sold.
In the past six months, Su Mingzhe gave him a thousand yuan.
Wang Quan has been staying in White Ya Mountain without even a place to spend money, so he plans to go home this time to give money to his parents and improve the life of his family.
"Brother Su, when we go back this time, shall we stay for more than a week?"
"Yes, we will go back on Thursday and come back next Friday. However, the old village chief will not take us back to the village until Saturday."
Su Mingzhe has already gone back once, so he is familiar with the place.
On Thursday, the old village chief drove the two of them to the Educated Youth Office in a carriage early in the morning.
Director Yang heard that Su Mingzhe was going back to Jichun City to purchase supplies, and he stamped the official seal very quickly.
At the same time, Director Yang also made an agreement with Su Mingzhe. When Su Mingzhe comes back next Friday, Su Mingzhe will go to his house to cook a meal for himself.
This man has grown old and has become greedy again.
Su Mingzhe agreed with a smile, and then he and Wang Quan got on the forest farm's truck bound for Jichun City.
This time the truck started late. When it arrived in Jichun City, it was already around four o'clock in the afternoon and it was already dark.
Wang Quan's house and Su Mingzhe's house were just two streets apart, so they simply got off the car together and helped Su Mingzhe move the fur goods home.
However, as soon as this kid moved his things to the door, he turned around and said goodbye to Su Mingzhe:
"Brother Su, I will come see you tomorrow."
"You guys are already at the door of your house. Come in, sit down and have a drink of hot water."
Su Mingzhe shouted, but Wang Quan was homesick, waved his hand, and ran towards home.
At this time, Jiang Cuiping and Su Mingxue heard the noise at the door. When they went out and saw Su Mingzhe back, they were very happy that the family could be reunited again.
On the other side, when Wang Quan returned home, his parents, younger brothers and sisters were all shocked.
Father Wang couldn't help but asked first:
"Boss, why are you back at this time?"
"Dad, I am accompanying Brother Su to our Jichun City to purchase supplies."
Wang Quan was more careful in doing things. He was afraid that his parents and family would not believe him, so he immediately took out the certificate from the village.
When the royal father saw the letter of certification, he breathed a sigh of relief. He looked at his son again, and his eyes began to get moist the next second.
In July, when Wang Quan set off, he was still a fair and tender high school graduate.
However, only half a year has passed, and he is already an unshaven man with slightly dark skin.
If he hadn't heard that his son's voice was loud and his body looked solid, he might have thought how much hardship his son had suffered in the White Tooth Mountains.
Compared to the simple question from the King's father, the Queen Mother was more concerned. She hugged her eldest son and cried for a long time.
Finally, his mood stabilized, and he started asking around to find out if Wang Quan had endured hardships outside.
Naturally, Wang Quan reported good news but not bad news. He only said that he ate well, slept well, and got along very well with other people in the know. People in the village also respected him very much.
At this time, younger brothers and sisters also gathered around and asked about life as an educated youth.
Wang Quan's younger brother is seventeen years old this year, and he will go out to join the queue to become an educated youth this year or next year.
Wang Quan's sister is only fourteen years old and does not need to go out. The street will arrange work when the time comes.
Seeing his younger brothers and sisters, Wang Quan remembered what he had brought back.
He quickly took out five pieces of bacon from the package.
When the King's father and Queen Mother saw these five pieces of bacon, they were almost frightened to death at first sight.
"Boss, where did you get the meat?"
"Mom and Dad, these are the bacon we got from hunting in the mountains. We also make money from selling fur products here."
Wang Quan immediately gave all the more than a thousand yuan he had saved to his biological mother.
The Queen Mother touched the thick pile of money, and her eyes suddenly turned red again.
"You kid, if you leave this money with Mom, Mom won't spend it. After spring, Mom will find a way to get a yard. When you come back, I'll give you a wife."
"Mom, I am going to jump in line. How can I come back so easily? This money is given to you to subsidize the family."
Although Wang Quan has received a promise from Su Mingzhe, he will definitely fly out of White Ya Mountain with everyone within two or three years.
Even if you are not recommended to go to college, you can definitely come back to the city.
However, he dared not believe this.
In any case, Wang Quan's return made the Wang family happy all night.
On the second day.
Early in the morning, the Queen Mother got up to make breakfast and saw her eldest son getting up earlier than herself and exercising in the yard.
"Son, what are you practicing for? Why do you tilt your head and twist your butt so ugly?"
"Mom, look what you said, this is called "Ba Duan Jin", it can activate muscles and bones, enhance physical fitness and immunity."
When a few educated youths first arrived in Bai Yashan Village, they were not accustomed to the local environment and fell ill for a few days.
Su Mingzhe taught them "Ba Duan Jin" to help them activate their muscles and bones.
Later, three female educated youths taught this "Ba Duan Jin" to their students.
Wang Quan had breakfast and told his parents that there was no need to make him lunch at noon. He was going to help Su Mingzhe purchase supplies today and would definitely have lunch at Su Mingzhe's house.
