The rolling mill is busy in the morning.
The machines in the steel rolling mill are roaring, and the workers are working enthusiastically in the workshop, making it a busy scene.
Sudden.
A clear voice came from the loudspeakers scattered throughout the rolling mill.
"Comrade workers, please pay attention. Comrade workers, please pay attention. Comrade Li Weidong, the workshop director of the poverty alleviation workshop of our steel rolling mill, will lead the assistance team to assist Shuangshui Village. Let us express our gratitude to Comrade Li Weidong here. At the same time, we hope that everyone can learn from him. A sense of responsibility, keeping class sentiments in mind, and a spirit of not being afraid of hardships and hardships.”
The workers stopped what they were doing, with a look of disbelief on their faces.
"Li Weidong is the director of the workshop, he is considered a leader. He didn't wait for a good job in the capital, but went to a remote country."
"It's not just poverty. I've heard that the people there are fierce."
"You are all backward elements, how can you possibly understand the thoughts of an activist like Li Weidong."
"Yes. No matter what you say, I have convinced Li Weidong this time."
After learning that Li Weidong volunteered to participate in the assistance work, even those who had ill intentions towards Li Weidong had to give a thumbs up in their hearts and praise, "This guy is amazing!"
Of course.
There are also people who are very depressed, such as Ma Erpao, the deputy director of the steel rolling mill.
He and Bai Yuejiao had already planned to carry out the operation at night. If the operation goes well, Li Weidong's grandson will be ruined.
But Li Weidong is going to Shuangshui Village soon and must be busy with preparations. Bai Yuejiao has no excuse to approach Li Weidong.
This kid is really lucky!
Ma Erpao rode his bicycle and came to Bai Yuejiao's residence, asking her to stop her activities at night and return the ten yuan action fund.
Bai Yuejiao had just woken up not long ago. She half-opened her mind and rolled her eyes at him: "Brother Ma, the money you gave me two days ago, I have already spent seven or eighty-eight dollars to prepare for action. Besides, Yes, you set the action time, and now you want to terminate it. All the responsibility lies with you. There is no reason to ask me to refund the money."
Under the dim light, she has charming eyes, a graceful figure, and a wild flavor all over her body.
This woman is really a killer! Ma Erpao couldn't help but swallowed his saliva and said: "Xiao Bai, that's ten yuan. It only took two days, and you spent it all?"
Are you kidding me? Ten yuan can be enough to feed a family for more than half a month if saved.
Bai Yuejiao put on and took off her shoes lazily with her mind half open, got out of bed, walked to the table and took out a bag.
Pulling out one of her slender fingers, she took out a match and lit it. She crossed her left leg over her right leg, lightly flipped her hair, and said with a small smile: "Director Ma, you don't know something. Li Weidong is the workshop director. , is a person who has seen the world, and ordinary fans cannot see it at all. If I want to win him, don't I have to make more preparations?"
"A box of colorful flowers cost fifty cents. I also had to buy hair oil. I went to the barber shop to get my hair done. I also bought a nice dress. Oh, and I also bought a new pair of underpants, bright red. Come and see. See if it’s worth 1 yuan and 2 cents.”
As she spoke, she untied her belt.
Ma Erpao's eyes widened instantly, and the blood in his body surged. At this time, he had already forgotten about the ten yuan spent.
"Xiaobai, I'm here."
Ma Erpao pounced on him, but Bai Yuejiao was already prepared. She stood up nimbly and hid beside the bed.
She smoked a cigarette and giggled: "Director Ma, you are wrong. Those ten yuan are operational funds, not your money to do things. If you want to do things, you have to give me three more yuan, right?" We have an old relationship, so just give me one yuan and twenty kilograms of national food stamps."
"I still need money." Ma Erpao, who was on fire at the moment, suddenly woke up after being covered in ice water.
He frowned and looked at Bai Yuejiao: "Xiao Bai, we have an old relationship, can't you look at the old friendship?"
It's not that he is unwilling to pay, but money is really tight recently. To deal with Li Weidong, he will definitely have to find a lot of helpers. Treating guests to dinner costs money.
Bai Yuejiao rolled her eyes: "Favors can be eaten! Old Ma, it's not like you don't know that I, a weak woman who can't carry anything on my shoulders or lift it with my hands, rely on my craftsmanship to earn a living. If I were a human If people are like you, then I can’t drink the northwest wind!”
As she said that, she put on a straight face, snorted a cloud of white mist from her nostrils, and said in a cold voice: "If you are willing, just take out the money obediently. If not, get out of here, I still have to sleep!"
One yuan, twenty pounds of national food stamps, the price is really not low.
Ma Erpao hesitated for a moment, but obediently took out the money from his pocket and handed it into Bai Yuejiao's hand.
"Be careful~"
"Baby~"
On the other side, Li Weidong never thought that his initiative to go to Shuangshui Village would cause the enemy's conspiracy to fail.
At this time, he came to the logistics office to count the materials shipped to Shuangshui Village with the logistics section chief.
The logistics section chief took the receipt and explained: "Director Li, at present, coarse grains such as stick noodles are basically in place. Fine grains such as refined white flour are also available. It will take two days to purchase them."
"Don't worry, we will probably leave in a week." Li Weidong looked at the document and frowned: "There are a lot of farm tools on it, why are there no daily necessities such as flashlights?"
"Ah? The factory director didn't explain it." The logistics section chief explained: "In addition, aid materials rarely involve daily life."
Li Weidong knew what the logistics section chief meant. In this era, Shuangshui Village didn't even have enough to eat. Even if they were given flashlights, they were reluctant to use batteries.
But they don't need to use it. We Li Weidong and the comrades of the assistance team need to use it. There must be no electricity in Shuangshui Village, and it is pitch black everywhere at night.
Without a flashlight, I would be trembling with fear even if I went to the latrine.
More importantly, the support materials purchased through the Logistics Section can be picked up directly from the supply and marketing cooperative without using coupons.
Of course, we want more of the things that don’t require tickets.
Li Weidong took out a cigarette from his pocket and handed it to the logistics section chief.
The logistics section chief quickly took it with both hands, with a hint of pride on his face. Now that Li Weidong was a big celebrity in the factory, he actually offered him a cigarette. How could he not be proud?
"Director Li, if you have any ideas, just tell me directly. When the factory director assigned the task, he already explained that this assistance task is difficult and requires our logistics department to fully cooperate with you to complete the task."
This old Yang is a man of action.
Li Weidong was also unceremonious and said with a smile: "Considering the actual local conditions, we need ten flashlights, three radios, and five hot water bottles."
Li Weidong quickly produced more than a dozen items, all of which were light industrial products that were almost impossible to buy locally with money.
Of course, these things are nothing in the capital, and the logistics section chief agreed immediately.
"Director Li, don't worry, I will report to my superiors immediately and try to prepare these things for you before departure."
"Okay, then I'll thank you." Li Weidong patted the logistics section chief on the shoulder gratefully.
The logistics section chief straightened his chest and said loudly: "Director Li, you are too polite. This time you are able to carry forward your style and take the initiative to go to the most difficult areas, which deeply admires us. This logistics support work, It’s nothing at all!”
See, that's the power of fame.
In this era, the power of fame is far greater than that of future generations. It can help you avoid some troubles and at the same time, it can also make you successful in doing things.
You don’t need to worry about the preparation of logistical supplies, so the next key point is to choose a qualified correspondent.
Correspondents must be loyal, reliable, and clever, and must have certain skills to avoid certain dangers.
There were not many people who met these conditions. Li Weidong thought about it and finally chose Pengzi, Yu Fatty's little brother.
Pengzi is different from others. He was born in the countryside. He stayed in the countryside for ten or twenty years before getting the opportunity to go to Beijing. He has a good understanding of the conditions in the countryside.
and.
Pengzi has been loyal to Fatty ever since he followed him.
In those years, before Fatty Yu met Li Weidong, he could only float in the pigeon market. If he made money, he could eat meat and noodles. If he couldn't make money, he could only drink cold fruit.
Of course, the competition in the pigeon market is fierce, and Fatty Yu spends more time drinking cold water. Accordingly, Pengzi's life is not easy.
Because Pengzi had a very flexible mind and was good at martial arts, those guys in the pigeon market took a fancy to Pengzi and offered generous terms in an attempt to pry Pengzi away from Fatty Yu.
As the saying goes, a good bird chooses the right tree to rest. If he has eaten his last meal but not his next meal, even if Pengzi leaves Yu Fatty, Yu Fatty cannot complain.
After all, the world is big and food is the biggest thing. Since you can't feed others, you can't stop them from seeking refuge with others.
Who would have thought that Pengzi was a tough guy, and he fell in love with Fatty Yu. During those difficult years, the two of them lived by eating sweet potatoes.
That's why Li Weidong chose him.
After deciding on the candidate, Li Weidong rode his bicycle to the courtyard.
Fatty Yu is now working as a buyer in a poverty alleviation workshop. As long as he completes his work every day, he can get off work at any time.
It often only takes him two or three hours to purchase all the materials needed for the poverty alleviation workshop. The rest of the time is spent in the courtyard, chatting with these little brothers, and inspecting the 'work'.
"You guys all have to learn from Xiao Luanzi."
In the main room, Fatty Yu was wandering around in front of a group of younger brothers with his hands behind his back, looking quite impressive.
"While Xiao Luanzi is busy with business, she also doesn't forget to study. I heard that she is planning to apply for Qinghua University, right?"
Little Luanzi was tall and thin. He stood up and said with a smile: "Master, it's not Qinghua University, it's Qinghuachi University."
"Blue Flower Pond University. There are more ponds than Blue Flower Pond University! It must be even more amazing!" Fatty Yu gave a thumbs up.
Xiao Luanzi: "."
Pengzi: "."
Da Zi: "."
They felt that the master's cultural level seemed a bit low.
Fatty Yu didn't think so. He held his head high and said, "My old man said that small traders who don't want to go to college are not good traders. So from today on, after you are done with your business, you must work hard with Xiao Luanzi." Study, improve your cultural level, and strive to be admitted to Kyodaike University in the future."
Little Luanzi raised his hand and reminded Fatty Yu: "Master, there is no university like Beidachi."
". Qinghua has a pool, why doesn't Beijing University have a pool? Isn't this obviously unfair!" Fatty Yu muttered in a low voice, and then said: "It doesn't matter whether it has a pool or not, it is it. If you can't complete the task, I will I’ll deduct your wages.”
As soon as these words came out, the little brother immediately drooped his face.
They are not study materials at all. They want to doze off when they see the books. How can they be admitted to Beijing University?
At this time, Li Weidong came to the courtyard on his bicycle.
Fatty Yu quickly threw down a pole and his younger brother came out to greet him. He said with a smile, "Brother Wei Dong, why are you here?"
"Fatty Yu, I may have to leave the poverty alleviation workshop for a while." Li Weidong pulled him aside and whispered.
Fatty Yu's face changed drastically: "Brother Wei Dong, what have you done?"
He now relies on Li Weidong to gain a foothold in the poverty alleviation workshop and the steel rolling mill. If Li Weidong leaves the steel rolling mill, he will be blinded.
"You kid, can't you just hope that I'll do something better? What's wrong? I'm going to the countryside this time to support the farmer brothers."
Li Weidong didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and recounted the story of going to Shuangshui Village.
"I think I've heard of that one in Shuangshui Village. The place is so poor. Every family only has one pair of pants, and whoever goes out wears it. Also, the folk customs there are fierce. It's very dangerous for you to go there this time. Otherwise, I'll accompany you." You go together, although I, Fatty Yu, have never practiced martial arts, but I weigh more than two hundred kilograms, and most people are no match for me."
After Fatty Yu heard this, he suddenly became worried.
Li Weidong patted him twice on the shoulder: "Fatty Yu, I appreciate your kindness. It's just that the Beijing Poverty Alleviation Workshop can't do without you. Our business still depends on you to run, so let's forget it this time." . I want to pick one of your little brothers to go with me."
"Of course, if you like whoever you like, just take him away!" Fatty Yu said boldly. Just kidding, whoever is selected will become Li Weidong's assistant.
Look at Li Weidong's former assistant Qin Jingru, a little rural girl who has now become a workshop leader.
The future is promising.
Li Weidong was not polite and directly named Pengzi.
"I don't know, Pengzi, are you willing to go to Shuangshui Village with me?"
"Yes, I'm really willing!" Pengzi jumped up excitedly.
Just kidding, if he stayed in the capital, he would have to study.
For Pengzi, studying is almost like killing him.
As for the difficult conditions in the countryside, Pengzi didn't take it seriously at all.
He had lived in the most difficult place for more than ten years and had even chewed tree bark.
Besides, this time we are going to aid, how could we not bring food!
Fatty Yu nodded: "Pengzi, this time I will leave Brother Wei Dong's safety to you. If you can't complete the task, don't go back to the capital."
Pengzi's face was serious: "Master, don't worry, if anyone dares to harm Brother Wei Dong, I will kill him with a dung fork." '
