Being a lumberjack on a tree farm is already a good job.
The salary is not high, but the ration of 44 kilograms is very high, and the children in the family can still take over the work of their parents.
It’s just that there is no eldest son, second son, or even five or six children in the family.
When the eldest brother takes over the job, it becomes difficult for the second and third sons to handle it.
Moreover, the eldest son has grown up and the biological father is only in his prime. We cannot let the eldest son take over at this time and go back to his hometown to farm!
So although Chu Xiangqian only mentioned one indicator, in the eyes of Qin Dakui and Accountant Jiang, it was to find another way out for their children.
And as long as he is willing to give him a favor or do him a big favor, the second and third indicators of entering the city are not delusions.
Accountant Jiang was so excited that he ignored Qin Dakui and asked eagerly, "Go forward, you can't just take this matter lightly. Do you really have that access?"
Chu Xiangqian was not in a hurry to answer. Instead, he looked at his second uncle Chu He and his cousin Chu Jiang and asked, "Second uncle, uncle Jiang, 200 yuan will help you get patriots and people who love the people to work as temporary workers in the city. Are you willing?" Don’t you want to pay for it?”
The going rate for temporary workers in the city ranges from RMB 100 to RMB 200, depending on the unit and the specific work being done.
But for the children in the village, even if they go to the city to work as sweepers, they are willing to give them 200 yuan.
If you have a job, you can support yourself.
Even with the exception of Qin Dakui, the other three people could not find a job relationship if they had money.
The second uncle hesitated for a moment, but his uncle Chu Jiang agreed directly without even hesitating.
He only has one son, and it is definitely his greatest hope in his life that Aimin can go to the city.
At that time, if her daughter cannot find a good husband, she can also ask her son-in-law to replace her as a worker in the forest farm.
Once this condition is met, I believe it will not be difficult to let the son-in-law marry into the family.
The second uncle glanced at Ai Guo, who had an expectant look on his face, thought for a few seconds and gritted his teeth and said, "Moving forward, the second uncle doesn't have enough money, so I can only give you 100, and let Ai Guo work the rest and pay you back slowly.
Moreover, I also have to consider Ai Lin, and I can’t let him blame me for being partial in the future. "
As for the youngest daughter Chu Aiqiu, in the eyes of the second uncle, she is from another family.
When she gets married, a dowry of thirty or fifty yuan is already very worthy of her daughter.
Chu Xiangqian originally wanted to forget about the remaining 100.
But if you think about it carefully, you can't do this.
Maybe your relatives don't want to take advantage of you, but if you give them a lot and seem easy to talk to, they may think differently.
“That’s okay,” he looked at Aiguo and said with a smile, “Anyway, this kid still has four or five years before getting married, so leave him 2 yuan a month for expenses and 8 yuan to buy food rations.
Give me 8 yuan and it will be paid off in one year.
In the second year, the 100 you gave to my second uncle can be returned to you in full. Lest Ai Qiu, that little girl, say that my elder brother is partial in the future.
From now on, if she and Ailin want to go to the city, they will also make money to pay back to me and my second uncle. "
Everyone silently calculated that temporary workers did not have food rations, and coarse grains cost 10 cents per pound. If they did not have tickets, it cost 20 cents to go to the pigeon market.
3 cents cabbage, 2 cents a pound of radish, add oil, salt, soy sauce and vinegar.
8 yuan may be a bit tight, but it can still support oneself.
But a few people still thought too simply. No one could have imagined that this severe drought would last for three years, and that many places were actually still in drought in 1962.
At that time, it was really difficult to buy food even if you had money.
But for Chu Xiangqian, the 8 yuan ration money was handed over to him. Not to mention how well the two cousins were fed, they were still guaranteed to be full.
Three years later, the patriotic temporary worker became an apprentice at the age of 19, and life gradually got better.
As for how to be promoted to an apprenticeship, for those who are connected, it is really just a sentence. After all, it is not a one-step process to directly become a formal employee.
Three years later, Aiguo became a regular worker at the age of 21. He was just stuck in the ten-year period and had an iron rice bowl before he was no longer rated.
The second uncle was naturally very satisfied, and even his breathing became heavy with excitement.
But after calming down, he asked like Accountant Jiang, "Go forward, are you really sure?"
"Don't worry," Chu Qianqian said sternly, "Although everything is good in the city, in fact, the people in the city are starting to have enough to eat now.
I can go up the mountain to get game, even if there is no way on the other side of the street. In a large factory like a steel rolling mill with tens of thousands of people, it is easy to recruit a few temporary workers.
Just wanting to become a regular worker is not that easy. "
"It's natural." The second uncle nodded hurriedly. The eldest son's job and future were settled. The second son Ailin would take over his job and work as a worker in the village when he was older.
As for Aiqiu, it will be more than ten years before she grows up.
Qin Dakui and Accountant Jiang looked at each other, truly believing that Chu Xiangqian had the ability to get the quota to enter the city.
Even if you don't have a grain book, you need to spend money to buy grain just like the bosses in the city, carpenters, and masons who do their own work.
But in fact, you don't have to buy it at the pigeon market in the city. In the surrounding villages, there are actually a lot of private purchases of food. Otherwise, people like Mr. Ban would have starved to death.
Yan Fugui asked his eldest son to ride a bicycle to Huaxiang and buy more than 100 kilograms of sweet potatoes.
As long as Chu Xiangqian plays the Novice Village, he has been able to harvest 15 pheasants every day. In the future, even if he marries a rural girl and has several children, he will be able to raise them.
"Then the matter is settled," Qin Dakui said to his second uncle Chu He after taking the last puff of his cigarette, "I'd better go back to the village overnight, and I'll go find Director Chen of the Forestry Bureau tomorrow.
The sooner this is done, the easier it will be. Otherwise, if it takes too long, some people will ask why they didn’t report it earlier. "
When Accountant Jiang, Chu He, and Chu Jiang heard this, they couldn't help but sit still.
Besides, the carriage is right outside, so there is no need to go into Shanhui Village tonight.
We only need to go to Beishan Commune, which is only about 70 miles, and the road is not difficult to walk.
Several people immediately made up their minds to go back overnight, but Chu Xiangqian did not dissuade them.
After all, it is a labor force of 4 people.
However, Chu Xiangqian finally quietly returned the shell gun he had taken from his second uncle to him.
Unexpectedly, the second uncle chuckled and whispered, "Both the captain and Accountant Jiang are with their guys!"
Chu Qianqian couldn't help but roll his eyes, and at the same time felt relieved.
Looking at Aiguo and Aimin, "You two should also go back. You want to go back to the city and wait until after the Chinese New Year. So as not to stay here for a long time and be noticed by others."
Although Second Uncle and Uncle Jiang didn't understand this, they nodded without hesitation.
Anyway, if he stayed in the city and had to eat Chu Qianqian's rations, he might as well go back to the village.
Qin Dakui was silently stunned for a moment, secretly thinking that this young man from the old Chu family has really become a bit scheming since he escaped from death.
Two boys stay in the city, one is likely to get into trouble.
Secondly, once there is an indicator, someone who thinks that Chu Xiangqian has two cousins living in his house will probably regard him as a potential competitor and be wary of him from the beginning.
But if patriotism and love for the people are gone, we can quietly find a way.
Even until the moment before the results came out, no one knew that Chu Xiangqian was also planning a target.
He secretly thought that just because of this, he had to do his best to help Xiang Qiang get involved in joining the organization.
After all, with his brain, he would at least be able to make a name for himself in the future, if not just to have a successful career.
