"Bang, bang, bang, bang...bang...beep...beep...ding, ding, ding..." Zhou Wenzhong, who was still lying in the sleeper compartment, quickly covered his ears when he heard the harsh sound.
I don’t know if the train brake shoes need to be replaced, or maybe some of the “iron mushrooms” used to slow down the train broke and got stuck in the train wheels. The noise was so loud.
Zhou Wenzhong was still a little sleepy at first, but now he was not sleepy at all. After the train stopped, Zhou Wenzhong picked up his cotton coat and lined up with the passengers to get out of the carriage.
"Huh...the air in Shuo County is so good."
A group of people in front of the platform raised wooden boards in their hands to greet a certain comrade. Zhou Wenzhong quickly opened his cotton coat and put it on himself.
"It's colder here than in Beijing. It's estimated to be minus 6 or 7 degrees Celsius at night in March."
As the crowd walked out of Shuoxian Railway Station, they walked onto the road and went straight to the nearby guest house.
Ten minutes later, Zhou Wenzhong walked into [Shengli Guest House] with a letter of introduction and household registration book.
"Hello, comrade, please open a bed."
The dozing waitress shook her head, took the letter of introduction from Zhou Wenzhong and examined it carefully. Since the letter of introduction stated one person, there was no need to ask the number of people again.
The waitress opened the registration book and copied the information on Zhou Wenzhong's household registration book with a pen dipped in water.
"It costs 20 cents a night to sleep in a large bunk. There are two beds in a small room. If you want to stay there, it will be calculated as two people and you will be charged 80 cents."
Zhou Wenzhong handed over the money and said, "Get a small room."
"Press your household registration book to me first. Go to the corner and pick a thermos bottle. Your room will be at the end on the right."
"good."
Zhou Wenzhong bent down and pulled out the corks of several thermos bottles, touched them one by one with his fingers, and picked up the hottest thermos bottle from the ground.
"How many days will you stay?"
"Leave tomorrow morning."
"We don't sell food here. The toilet is in the southwest corner of the courtyard. There is a wooden basin on the towel rack in the house, and the water pipe is in the middle of the courtyard. There is a dustpan in the room. You can go and rub the coal in the courtyard."
"good."
Zhou Wenzhong picked up his letter of introduction and walked over to the location the receptionist just said.
Opening the door and turning on the light, there was no moisture or odor in the entire 15-square-meter room. There was a folded thin quilt on the two beds, and a pillow on the blue and white sheets. Between the beds.
There was a coal stove that I had never seen before. There were also some small pieces of chopped firewood on the ground.
Zhou Wenzhong put the thermos bottle on the ground, picked up the iron dustpan behind the door and ran to the yard to rub coal. Shanxi has no shortage of this stuff...
At 6:30 the next morning, Zhou Wenzhong walked out of the guest house with his household registration book and quickly hid in an alley without anyone noticing.
When he came out again, he had put on the beggar's outfit he had just traveled through. He was also wearing a sack piece, and he was holding a wooden stick as thick as a child's wrist in his right hand. His hair and face were all black and gray, and his clothes were also stained.
Stock stink.
Zhou Wenzhong followed the route he had drawn on the map and walked all the way north with a wooden stick.
"This trip has high mountains and dangerous waters, but it is quiet and safe along the streets and alleys."
"Can't see, can't see...I can't see anything..."
Zhou Wenzhong muttered in a low voice, closed his eyes and pretended not to see the big-bellied child on the roadside.
Children who have been hungry for a long time will not only have bow legs and a big belly, but their heads will also look particularly big, and their faces will be swollen. Some people's eyelids will be so swollen that their eyes can only be narrowed to a thin slit.
Zhou Wenzhong saw the small dirt bags beside the road and knew what was inside.
Several women gathered on the side of the road, working hard on a large tree that had been sawed off. They held a curved saw in both hands and scraped the bark on it back and forth, while the others held bowls and collected sawdust underneath.
Zhou Wenzhong sighed, clenched the wooden stick in his hand, lowered his head and continued to move forward...
Jingcheng Sugar Factory is affiliated to Jingcheng Food Company and directly affiliated to Jingcheng No. 1 Food Factory. Its most famous product is pineapple flavored hard candies.
The scene inside the Beijing sugar factory can be described as being very busy. Ever since the security department received a telegram at 2:40 in the morning, all the leading cadres of the sugar factory who were still sleeping at home were disturbed by the knocking on the door.
Wake up. Then follow the security guards back to the factory to get busy.
The areas that should be cleaned should be cleaned quickly, the areas that should be repaired should be repaired as soon as possible, and the areas that should show minor problems should be vandalized as soon as possible.
Groups of militiamen hung bullet bags on their bodies and began to set up blocks at various intersections to interrogate people coming and going.
The security guards also equipped themselves with machine guns and began to stand guard at the factory gate.
Until 9:20 in the morning, the factory leaders who were still dozing at their desks. I don’t know which cadre with sharp eyes saw the security guards in the watchtower at the factory gate waving the flags in their hands. One by one, they quickly changed into flattering flags.
With expressions on their faces, they rushed out of the office and gathered at the gate.
The door of the Beijing Sugar Factory was open at this time, and all the employees were working in the factory, and they were not allowed to come out to join in the fun.
The first thing that drove out of the gate was a military jeep, followed closely by a black Jim sedan, and finally followed by a jeep.
"Hey, Director Kong is welcome to visit our factory to guide our work."
"Welcome Director Kong."
"Director Kong, you came too suddenly this time and caught us by surprise."
Director Kong from the First Light Bureau of Beijing opened the door and stepped out of the Jim car. He raised his hand expressionlessly and gestured to the junior cadres in front of him.
The storage and sales of candies are not under the control of the First Light Bureau, but the sugar-making equipment in the factory is. This is quite significant.
Director Kong, led by the leaders of the sugar factory, visited the sugar workshop, spray washing workshop, staff dormitories, staff canteen... and finally stopped at the door of the boiler room.
"When using sugarcane bagasse as fuel, safety must be ensured! This is the top priority!"
The factory team secretary stopped the pen in his hand, pushed up his glasses and said to himself: This is the problem we put here deliberately for you to discover.
"Yes, we will hold a meeting immediately to convey the safety production information..."
"Okay, okay, this will all happen after I leave. Let's go to the third production workshop and take a look."
"yes."
25 minutes later, the director of the third workshop touched the new sugar-making equipment in front of him, which was only 4 years old, and began to explain incessantly.
"Director Kong, these equipments are extracting juice, adding ash to sugar juice, multi-effect evaporation, and secondary carbonation..."
"Ahem..."
Director Kong coughed slightly and interrupted the workshop director's speech.
"What year is this machine?"
"The specific date is that it was purchased in August 1955."
"Oh, can this sugar making equipment only use sugar cane as raw material?"
"No. For example, sugar radish and purple cabbage from Beijing can be used as raw materials for making sugar."
Director Kong touched the heating machine, nodded with satisfaction and led the secretary out of the workshop. The factory leaders present were a little confused and could only follow him out of the workshop...
On the second day after Director Kong visited the sugar factory, the county commune in his hometown received a call from as far away as the capital.
On the third day after that, Director Kong's nephew Kong Lingquan and a certain leader of the Bagong People's Commune Brigade, two people who had never taken a train in their lives, actually bought two plane tickets at their own expense this time! They flew to the capital.
.
At the end of this incident, the Jingcheng Sugar Refinery received brand new sugar refining equipment. This was the first major event that Director Kong from Jincheng did half a month after taking office as Director of Jingcheng Yiqing!
This operation can definitely be included in the top 10 most touching people. Instead of just being titled "Three Heroes", Director Kong even has a memorial hall in his hometown.
According to a report 20 years later, after Director Kong visited the sugar factory, he thought of his childhood. His heart could not calm down for a long time, and his eyes became moist.
When interviewed by reporters, Director Kong said this: "When I smelled the sweet smell of sugar in the entire sugar factory, I remembered that when I was a child, I couldn't afford sugar, so I looked at the candies in other people's hands and salivated.
.The children in my hometown are now the same as when I was a child. Sometimes I wonder what I can do for my hometown so that the children can taste sugar. One time I visited a sugar factory and found a batch of
The abandoned sugar-making equipment was left in the warehouse. At that time, I thought about whether I could turn the waste into treasures and build a sugar factory in my hometown to do some practical things for the people in my hometown."
Director Kong's nephew Kong Lingquan said this: "We can afford to wait, but the children in our hometown cannot afford to wait! We are doing practical things for our hometown, so we should go in glory! So we bought it with our own money this time
Air ticket, hurry up and fly to the capital to receive these sugar machines."
There are many leading cadres like Director Kong who are dedicated to doing practical things for their hometown.
It didn’t take long for Director Kong’s nephew to be promoted to a party member of a sugar factory with over 4,000 employees. During the corporate integration in a certain place in 1985, as secretary of the party committee of the factory, he became the director of the local private enterprise.
He was the top leader of a certain unit. He was then transferred to another post in 1986. The fundamental reason was that Director Kong passed away in Beijing.
