"Commander General, look, this area is one of the experimental fields we developed here, and there are several other experimental fields in several other places." Li Chunxi proudly stood in front of a large area of ​​vitality, like Duan Guoxue introduced.

"Chunxi, I didn't expect to meet you here, good! Just seeing this large crop is happy." Duan Guoxue came here with a secret visit, and he didn't expect to be recognized by Li Chunxi. Li Chunxi met Duan Guoxue at the New Year banquet for the tenth anniversary of the establishment of Xingmin Company a few years ago. His lofty ambitions and bold feats at that time were still fresh in memory.

"The fourth institute and the Ministry of Agriculture sent me here to study the agricultural situation here, and come up with plans and reports on grain income increase as soon as possible. I rushed over the next day after receiving the order."

"Commander-in-chief, in order to hurry, Chunxi threw his wife, who had just passed the door less than a week, at home." A staff member next to Li Chunxi made a report to Duan Guoxue.

"Oh? Is this happening?"

"...Yes! Isn't that time urgent? When I got the notice, I was almost in the spring. I missed the opportunity but I had to wait another year!!! My wife can wait for home to go back to hug her, but the crops can not be rotten in the fields! Besides, my wife is not the kind of petty person. She likes me just likes this kind of energy!" Li Chunxi retorted with confidence.

Li Chunxi's words made everyone present laugh happily, and Duan Guoxue was also very happy. Not only Li Chunxi's words, but more of his selfless spirit of always chasing the peak of technology in newcomers like Li Chunxi.

"Spring, go back and write a report. I will specially approve your wife to reunite you two."

"No!! Commander-in-chief, the conditions here are not as good as ours. Everyone lives in a work shed or a fellow villager's house. It's nothing if everyone just squeezes in. If you really want to transfer my wife, it will be troublesome." Li Chunxi hurriedly rejected Duan Guoxue's kindness.

"Where do you live?" Duan Guoxue suddenly realized a problem.

"Live in a work shed, and try to arrange it in the home of a fellow villager." Li Chunxi said naturally.

"Take me to see." Duan Guoxue suddenly said with a cold face.

Maybe he felt that he had said something wrong. On the way to the station, Li Chunxi no longer had endless words as usual, but just silently led Duan Guoxue and his group to his and others' stations.

What kind of shed is this!!! Duan Guoxue has seen many simple sheds where migrant workers live, which cannot be simpler than that in later generations. Here, the scene Duan Guoxue saw is even more terrible than the simple sheds in later generations.

The things made of bamboo strips are walls covered on all sides. The roof made of bamboo strips and thatch make people doubt its practicality. Walking into this simple and unruly shed, Duan Guoxue was first stimulated by the strong musty smell and couldn't open his eyes. After a while, he adapted to the smell and the dim light, what caught Duan Guoxue's eyes was a neat but strange floor pavement, and some workers were lying on it and fell asleep.

"You just let these our scientific elites live in such a place?" The person in charge who wanted to wake up the workers who were resting was stopped. Duan Guoxue lifted up a quilt and looked at the bedding wet by the ground tide. Duan Guoxue's cold face made everyone present feel this cold anger.

"Sorry, Commander-in-Chief, our work was not done well!!" The person in charge of life and work replied with his head down and ashamed.

"Is it because you didn't do your job well or are there other reasons? I'm a special broadcast of living allowances and daily necessities for scientific and technical personnel."

"Commander-in-chief, this has nothing to do with them. It was our request. The people here are so poor..." Li Chunxi hurriedly explained.

"Yes, when we first came here, many ordinary people couldn't even eat enough. The staff who entered here... all left their rations and bedding clothes to the local people." The person in charge of life and work mustered up the courage to tell the practical problems they encountered.

After a while, Duan Guoxue didn't say a word, he just stared at the hard living conditions in the shed.

"Chunxi, I ask you, what do you think in your heart with such unrepentant efforts?!"

"Commander-in-chief, I am a member of the People's Political Consultative Party. Before joining the party, I have already sworn that I will contribute my own strength to the rejuvenation of China's nationality and always be at the forefront when I endure hardships... Command-in-chief, do you see the lights outside? That is the brothers of the engineering construction team working overtime overnight. In order to build the steel plant and derivative industrial plant and mine in Panzhihua as soon as possible, and there are many brothers working overtime. Nothing else, it is to complete the construction one day earlier and contribute more and better to the rejuvenation of the motherland. If you want to endure hardships, you can ask all the comrades, as long as you can't stand this hardship, you can transfer it at any time, but until now, no one has applied!!"

“………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

On the way to the construction site, I passed a village where a movie was being played. The content of the movie was an agricultural science and education film, which was about rice planting technology. People from all over the village were coming. The glutinous fields in the village were densely filled with people. Although the movie was not good, there was no entertainment in this era. Second, the movie was still a rare thing. Third, the content of the movie was rice planting technology, which included a series of processes such as cultivation, fertilizer accumulation, seedling cultivation, and field management. This is a good way for ordinary people who rely on farming to make a living.

Without disturbing the study and work here, Duan Guoxue just stood by and watched it and rushed to the construction site. Although the rural work is complicated and cumbersome, it is better than easy to manage. As long as it can give benefits and benefits to the people, the people will spontaneously support and cooperate with the work of the new policy. Just like the movie projectionist just now, although he was standing there operating the machine in order to ensure the continuity and quality of the screening, he was sweating profusely, and mosquitoes kept harassing, but he did not dare to move around. Aside him, several fellow villagers took palm-leaf fans and fanned him in turn to cool him down and drive away mosquitoes. Looking at the water bowls, teapots, unfinished rice and a few sweet potato eggs beside him, this is definitely something that fellow villagers comforted him...

I heard the roar of the machines there far away from the construction site. In order to speed up the construction progress, the construction team even transferred several diesel generators, and huge sunlights shone on the construction site, providing light sources for workers working at night.

"Commander General, the road is muddy, I suggest you change your rain boots and go there..." A staff member next to him handed over a hard helmet and a pair of rain boots.

"No need, leave it for other workers. I saw some of the workers barefoot." After that, Duan Guoxue only took the hard helmet and walked into the muddy construction site.

The mud is very sticky and slippery, which is very difficult to walk on. Duan Guoxue struggled to come to the first half of the construction site, where he was reducing the slope of a hillside road. The latest rotary excavators and bulldozers were roaring in the work. With their appearance and help, the progress of the project has accelerated a lot.

"Commander-in-chief! I am Liu Zhuhua, the head of the First Bridge Engineering Bureau. Welcome to us for inspection." A middle-aged man with a beard and covered in mud, introduced himself to Duan Guoxue.

"I can't say that I'm inspecting, I just come here to see how the project is going now?"

"The progress is very fast, mainly because with the help of new machinery and power trains, the staff are now working in three shifts and keeping work in order to complete the preliminary infrastructure before the rainy season."

“Is there any difficulty?”

"The supply of diesel is a bit unsatisfactory. The main reason is that we have accelerated the progress and consumed a lot of oil. However, we have responded to the logistics department in time and believe that it will be resolved soon."

“What about the life problems of comrades?”

“…………”

"Whatever you say!"

"Working conditions are difficult, and food, clothing and accommodation are inconvenient. Although we are not here to enjoy the happiness, the environment here is really bad. The humid and stuffy weather makes comrades have no clothes to wear, and it is easy to dehydrate. Although the water source here is rich, it is not suitable for reference due to too many minerals. You have also seen the accommodation conditions. The accompanying doctor notified us that if we live like this, we will easily suffer from various diseases."

“…………You didn’t think of any way to solve it?”

"I thought of many ways, but it costs a lot of supplies and funds. The comrades are not willing to waste resources like this. They would rather live in and eat almost to ensure the construction period and save money for the company." Liu Zhuhua's eyes flashed with pride and sadness.

"Liu Zhuhua, please pay attention. You should pay attention to your comrades' lives so that they can eat well, live well and sleep well, and don't worry about supplies and funds. There is no need to save this little money. Everyone's health is the most important thing!! You should be a regulation to ensure the quality of life of comrades. Although everyone's starting point is good, what I need is a healthy comrade, not a good comrade who is injured and sick in order to save money!! Do you know?!"

"clear!!"

"Who is responsible for the new steel mill?"

"It's me! Commander-in-Chief!" A short middle-aged man stood up.

"Liu Zhuhua, you guys keep busy. I'm going to the steel mill."

"It's too late now, and it's dark and it's hard to walk on the road. Why don't I get a car?"
