Chapter 8 Something happened to the old branch secretary

The next day, early in the morning, Zhao Shucheng rode the only bicycle from Xiao Lei's family to the place he made an appointment with Song Yunping.
Song Yunping also got up very early. When she saw Zhao Shucheng waiting there, a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
Zhao Shucheng brought Song Yunping to the commune. Faced with the staff's difficulties, Song Yunping was a little aggrieved and jealous.
Zhao Shucheng could not see his woman crying, so he looked directly at the staff and said, "Can you do it? Can you do it?"
When the other party saw Zhao Shucheng's fierce look, he was immediately scared and trembled, saying, "You have to queue up for this matter. It will be your turn one day. Didn't I say that I'm queuing up. If we all go to the line like you, how can we start our work?"
Zhao Shucheng looked at the other party with a funny look and said, "You said you were queuing up, right? I want to see which one we are ranked first, when can we solve it? Can you give you an accurate time?"
"I don't have the final say about this, I can only say it as soon as possible!"
Zhao Shucheng didn't even hang himself over to the other party, and directly carried the other party to the corner of the wall and said, "Can you do it?"
The old comrade on the side saw that things were not good, so he quickly stood up and said, "My comrade, if you have anything to say, don't touch me."
Zhao Shucheng said: "I speak well, but he has to listen very well. Just a little bit of things, he is sluggish and hindering. What do you want to do? Does he have any opinions on the above documents and do not support them?"
Zhao Shucheng's words changed the other party's face. After all, they were considered people from the yamen. If they had any opinions about the superiors and let the leader know, they would be idle aside.
"I'll ask you, can they do the matter of taking off their hat?"
The young comrade said: "If you can do it, you have to write an application!"
“The application is written!”
"Then what?"
"The application is here, and you will have to have a meeting to discuss it, only once a Friday every week."
Zhao Shucheng said: "Okay, I'll come next Monday. If I can't get the approval document, I have to go to the county to appeal, but what will happen then will not be my final say."
"Yes, I can get approval next week."
Zhao Shucheng nodded and said, "Okay, Yunping, let's go!"
Although Zhao Shucheng did not act like Lei Dongbao in the original plot to scare the other party, Zhao Shucheng was a person who reads books and newspapers, and also understood the habits of these civil servants. Sometimes things that cannot be solved by force can be done in the officialdom routine.
Song Yunping was very happy to hear that her family affairs would be resolved next week, so she hugged Zhao Shucheng tightly on the way back with Zhao Shucheng.
Zhao Shucheng felt the softness of his back and couldn't help but feel a sensation in his heart. Thinking that he hadn't had meat for many years, he wanted to eat meat immediately now, but due to Song Yunping's timidity, Zhao Shucheng could only suppress his anger.
Zhao Shucheng discussed with Song Yunping. Although the two were engaged, they would have to wait for a while to get married. On the one hand, the current situation of the Xiao Lei family, although Zhao Shucheng was so busy that he could not touch the ground, his economy was still not very good. Zhao Shucheng hoped to marry Song Yunping home in a grand manner, rather than being pointed at by others.
On the other hand, Song Yunping didn't want to leave home so soon. She wanted to take care of her parents and helped her take care of her family to provide Song Yunhui with her studies.
The two agreed that by next year, the Xiao Lei family will develop and marry Song Yunping in a grand manner.
After they returned to Xiao Lei's house, Song Yunping continued to go to the farm to take the villagers to breed long-haired rabbits. After Zhao Shucheng took a walk to the brick factory, he felt relieved when he saw the customers coming and going.
However, Zhao Shucheng knew what he saw about some villagers wandering around the brick kiln. These people saw that the brick kiln and the breeding farm made money, and hoped that they could also work in the brick kiln.
Zhao Shucheng knew very well that relying solely on brick kilns and breeding farms does not require too many people, so if these villagers want to get rich, they have to think of other ways.
As for setting up a construction team and taking the villagers out to build houses and take care of work, Zhao Shucheng knew that the time was not ripe and the time was not yet. So the only way now is to use the conditions of the Xiao Lei family to develop other industries.
Zhao Shucheng had actually had a plan long ago, that is, the bamboo forest in the back mountain in the village. Except for the use of each household to build fences and set up shelves, they just dig bamboo shoots, and the rest basically let the bamboo grow freely.
Zhao Shucheng felt a pity when he saw the bamboo forest was wasted like this. After all, the price of this bamboo is not high, but if it is processed into bamboo weaving products, the price may be higher. Moreover, Zhao Shucheng knew that since 1978, foreign exchange creation has been a more important task for cities and cities. Bamboo weaving products are the best way to choose in rural areas like Xiao Lei family that have no industrial foundation.
When Zhao Shucheng told the old branch secretary that this method was done, the old branch secretary hesitated for a moment and said, "Dongbao, your method is good, but there are very few people in our village who have this craft now. During the war, people were not full, let alone bought bamboo weaving. Especially during the Anti-Japanese War, bamboo weaving artists put down their bamboo swords and engaged in other industries. Even a few people were weaving bamboo mats."
Zhao Shucheng nodded and said, "Of course I know this, but many of the strong laborers in our village have not entered brick factories and breeding farms. We cannot watch them break the gap between the rich and the poor with other villagers. However, brick kiln factories and breeding farms are indeed overcrowded. We cannot make a big average like before, nor can we take turns to work in brick kilns or breeding farms. This reduces per capita income and will also discourage the enthusiasm of the villagers."
"So we still need to develop other industries, and the bamboo weaving industry is difficult or simple. I have thought about it, and we will also build a bamboo weaving factory to carry out assembly line operations. Some people who do not have skills will directly process bamboo strips of bamboo wire, and the rest will make bamboo weaving products."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content below! "The main sales method for our handicrafts is not our county or province. Instead, we need to make fine products and make large wall hangings, such as Wang Xizhi's Lanting Preface, Ba Jun Pictures, Tang Yin's landscape paintings, etc. At that time, we will also attend the Canton Fair with our products. If we can get foreign trade orders, we can also export and earn foreign exchange."
"I've inquired about this foreign exchange entrepreneurship task is also very important to the county, and the price of this product will be much higher than that of domestic. Even if foreign exchange is exchanged privately, it is much higher than that of public exchange."
The old branch secretary frowned after hearing this and said, "Aren't you speculating? This is not OK!"
Zhao Shucheng smiled and said, "Uncle, I didn't think about redeeming it privately, but I can negotiate with the county. The exchange rate is slightly higher, which is enough for the people in our village to make more money."
The old branch secretary hesitated for a moment, and said a little hesitantly: "Can this work?"
"I can't explain clearly whether it's OK, but I have to give it a try, right? Besides, the other strong laborers in the village cannot be left idle and have nothing to do. You must know that people are suffering from lack of people and unevenness. If this problem is not solved, the villagers will sooner or later become jealous, and it will be bad if they cause trouble at that time."
After pondering for a while, the old branch secretary nodded and said, "Okay, then let's start working. At worst, these things can be sold to the county or provincial capital, and they can always be sold. You can count how many strong laborers there are still not working. I'll find the old craftsmen in our village to see if they can be taught."
"Okay, uncle, you would have to be the one who is still there. If there is an old man in this family, you will have to find the right person at this critical moment."
When the old branch secretary heard Zhao Shucheng say this, although he didn't say anything, the smile on his face showed that he was also very happy.
Although Zhao Shucheng and the old branch secretary both supported opening a bamboo weaving factory, unfortunately the villagers were skeptical about whether the bamboo weaving factory could make money, or even whether the income was similar to that of the brick kiln or farm.
So no matter how much Zhao Shucheng mobilized, there were only some old artists and a dozen younger ones who were willing to work in the bamboo weaving factory, and others were still waiting and watching.
Especially after the bamboo weaving factory has been open for several months, I can only see the expenses but no profits. Even the workers in the bamboo weaving factory hesitated a little.
The people from the brick kiln factory and the farm were also talking about this, thinking that Zhao Shucheng was using the benefits they created to raise the bamboo weaving factory, which was a bit unfair.
However, due to the prestige of Zhao Shucheng and the old branch secretary, he is still discussing privately and is not afraid to get it on the table.
The old branch secretary and Zhao Shucheng actually knew that the villagers had opinions on the bamboo weaving factory, and they also discussed whether to first take out the bamboo weaving crafts made by the bamboo weaving factory and sell part of it. With certain economic benefits, the villagers would have fewer opinions.
However, Zhao Shucheng was not happy. They could not attend the Canton Fair this spring due to time. However, Zhao Shucheng had great expectations for the Canton Fair in the autumn, hoping to make a big order, so that the villagers can earn more income and expand the scale in the future.
After hearing Zhao Shucheng's thoughts, the old branch secretary hesitated for a moment, and finally agreed to comfort the villagers with Zhao Shucheng, and wait for the Canton Fair before talking about everything.
During this period, Zhao Shucheng's money earned by using brick kilns and farms not only subsidized the bamboo weaving factory, but also purchased the first tractor for the village to solve the transportation problems in the village. The tractor was held responsible for Sibao, and if Xiao Lei's family set up a transportation team in the future, Sibao would also be in charge, but he did not tell him.
Because Xiao Lei's family's industries are increasing, Zhao Shucheng cannot be as focused as before, so Zhao Shucheng began to promote young people and be responsible for related industries. Among them, Zhao Shucheng, the brick kiln factory, handed over to Lei Shigen, and asked him to be responsible, while the breeding farm, asked Song Yunping to be the person in charge and technician. As for the bamboo weaving factory, it was the old branch secretary who was in charge. After all, only the prestige of the old branch secretary could make people who have opinions about the bamboo weaving factory dare not say anything. Of course, Zhao Shucheng himself also works in the bamboo weaving factory. On the one hand, it supervises the quality, and on the other hand, it develops new bamboo weaving with the masters, including lifelike red-crowned crane bamboo weaving, giant panda bamboo weaving, and large wall paintings. For this reason, Zhao Shucheng also went to many museums, took photos, came back to further decompose them based on the photos, and then formulated the weaving process.
However, just as Zhao Shucheng was planning the next development plan for the Xiao Lei family, he did not expect that someone would not be lonely and began to get ready to move.
On that day, Zhao Shucheng and Song Yunping were on their way back from ready-made. Song Yunping is not only the director of Xiaolei's farm, but also uses his time to attend classes at night. Zhao Shucheng now rides a bicycle to pick her up and drop off her off every day. He discussed along the way whether to continue to expand the scale of breeding long-haired rabbits, but saw Sibao hurriedly blocking the intersection and pulling Zhao Shucheng into the forest to hide.
Zhao Shucheng frowned and looked at Sibao and asked, "No, Sibao, what happened? What should you tell me first? Where should I go?"
"Dongbao, something big happened. I don't know who sued the commune for the joint production contract in our village. Some people also said that the bamboo weaving factory in our village was digging for socialist corners. The old branch secretary had been arrested. He asked me to tell you, you should go out and hide for a few days first."
Zhao Shucheng frowned after hearing this, but he didn't expect that such a thing would happen. He knew that in the original plot, Lei Dongbao directly contracted the household and asked someone to sue him, and the old branch secretary was arrested. Lei Dongbao then went to the county government to thank the county magistrate on the surface, but in fact he was to ask the county magistrate for his reasoning.
However, Zhao Shucheng himself avoided this problem, but he was still sued now, and he also involved the matter of the breeding farm and bamboo weaving factory.
This made Zhao Shucheng a little overwhelmed for a moment, but Zhao Shucheng didn't feel that he had done anything wrong. After all, how much money is spent in this village has little to do with others, and he also has a suitable reason.
So Zhao Shucheng walked out of the forest and walked towards the village. He met Lei Shigen and the others on the way, and then he knew what was going on.
In fact, at the beginning, the people from the commune came to find Zhao Shucheng, but they didn't expect that Zhao Shucheng was not at home, so they touched the old branch secretary's house and took the old branch secretary away.
Zhao Shucheng knew that the other party was taking the blame for him, but Zhao Shucheng could not admit the charge and would not let the old branch secretary really help him take the blame. So after thinking about it, he still had to go to the newly appointed County Mayor Xu to reason with him.
Of course, Zhao Shucheng was not panicked, and asked the villagers to do whatever they should do. The brick kiln factory could not be stopped, otherwise half of the bricks would be scrapped, and there were still many orders that had not been completed. As for the breeding farms and bamboo weaving factories, they were also allowed to continue working and no trouble could occur.
Zhao Shucheng himself took Lei Shigen and others, as well as some other people in the village who had no trouble, to go to the county town to find County Mayor Xu.
Song Yunping also knew what happened. When washing Zhao Shucheng's clothes and face, she had to go with Zhao Shucheng. At that time, she could slightly restrain Zhao Shucheng's temper.
