He turned over the newspaper. [Full text reading] There are two pages for popular science. One page is natural science, which covers simple applied mathematics, physics, chemistry and biology; the other page is agricultural science and technology, which publishes popular science on scientific farming and breeding technology. article. These articles were all compiled by Ding Ding for the Agricultural Committee, and Wu Nanhai also wrote several articles - they were very difficult, not only did they have to explain the profound things in a simple way, but the style also had to be colloquial.
Agricultural science pages were the focus of Wu Nanhai's reading of newspapers, mainly to see if there were major flaws in the articles published today. Some elders would excerpt from agricultural science books in the past to cover some outdated or even wrong materials. Copied it. Wu Nanhai had so many things to do that he didn't have time to review them one by one, so he had to go through them again in the newspaper.
After reading the agricultural science section, he skipped the policy promotion section, where all the recently promulgated laws and administrative documents were announced. Turned to the "Advanced Commendation" column. An employee of the Committee of Agriculture had recently received the "Level 2 Labor Hero Medal" and he wanted to confirm whether to report it.
The "Advanced Commendation" column occupies almost half of the page. Due to the limitations of printing technology, there are no photos. There are only honors, personal information, and simple deeds in each square grid. Those with black frames are award-winners who have died in the line of duty.
In this dense grid, Chapter 1365, Jin Liushun is a first-class labor hero medal.
The Hero of Labor Medal was recently established for non-military personnel who have rendered meritorious services to the Senate for various events.
Wu Nanhai knew about the deeds of the Jin siblings - the sluice gate was also an agricultural facility after all. Wan Lihui also participated in the memorial and commendation ceremony for Jin Oh-soon as a representative of the Agricultural Committee in Jeju.
As usual, the middle of the newspaper is an advertisement. The advertisement in today's newspaper is that the Australian Confucian Commentary Edition of the Four Books and Five Classics published by the Press is on sale. You can enjoy 10% off the entire set and 50% off a single copy by using the discount coupon in the newspaper.
Then there are product advertisements published by various shops and firms in Lingao, including enterprises affiliated to the Ministry of Commerce and various private enterprises: "New autumn tea from Fujian has arrived", "Nanhai cigars, long-term enjoyment", "Qionghai trip" Newly arrived in Nanjing Velvet Satin”…
Wu Nanhai's eyes fell on the large advertisement for the cooperative's autumn life new product exhibition. Although there was no discount content, there was a detailed catalog and price of the new products at the exhibition. Many of them were new products and were expensive. It seemed that this was for What attracts the maids of various senators' families is to let Chu Qing go shopping and see if there are any new things to buy.
While Wu Nanhai was reading the newspaper, Chu Qing and the maid were preparing breakfast in the kitchen. Chu Qing opened the lower shelf of the refrigerator and took out the eggs. Since intensive chicken farms have been opened in various commune farms under the jurisdiction of the Agricultural Committee, and small-amount farming loans have been widely carried out in rural areas, eggs are no longer a special commodity. Not only are they more than enough to supply veterans, but they can also be supplied to schools in large quantities. and canteens of institutions and enterprises.
This refrigerator is not an electric refrigerator, but a traditional refrigerator. This kind of refrigerator is manufactured by the mechanical department based on the structure of refrigerators that used natural ice for refrigeration in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, using ice cubes made in cold storage. Its overall appearance is similar to a large three-door refrigerator. The outer layer is made of insulated sandwich boards filled with sawdust, and the inner lining is made of tin-plated thin steel plates. The partitions inside the box are made of the same material, but with many holes punched in. , to facilitate the flow of air conditioning.
There are two doors, upper and lower, on the left side. There is a tinplate box in the upper door space for storing ice. The lower door is divided into upper and lower parts. The upper part is a water tray, which is used to receive the water dripping when the natural ice melts in the upper door space. A small amount of items that need to be refrigerated can also be placed on the surface. On the right side of the refrigerator is a whole door, divided into four compartments, used to place frozen food.
This kind of refrigerator is very heavy and bulky, but it is very convenient for places where compressors cannot be manufactured and there is no condition to buy a gas refrigerator. The cold storage regularly delivers ice cubes every day, and one piece can last a whole day. In such a temperature as Lingao A higher place is an important magic weapon to maintain the freshness of food.
Place the frying pan on the stove to heat it up - this frying pan is made of iron and is quite heavy, but it works well. Chu Qing poured peanut oil from Nanhai Farm specially supplied to the office into the pot, and then cracked in two eggs. On the other side of the stove, Sister Ju was checking the firepower at the burner, adding a handful of wood shavings from time to time. Due to the impact of the incentive plan, coal consumption increased sharply everywhere. The stingy Planning Institute suspended the quota of briquettes from the elders' family and instead sent scraps from the lumber factory to be used as fuel for the stove. One large pack a day seemed like enough, but in fact it was only enough for one day.
While Sister Ju was adding ingredients to the stove, she pulled the bellows to supply air so that the stove could burn more vigorously. Ju's brother-in-law's family name is Liu, and his name is Liu Ashui. The couple are about 5 years old. They are from Foshan, Guangdong. They crossed the sea to join a relative who works in a factory, but they couldn't find him. When looking for a job, because they are older, they are not considered suitable for heavy physical labor in factories due to physical examination. He was put on the waiting list for light physical exercise.
It happened that Wu Nanhai needed help taking care of the chapel, and at the same time, he also needed servants and coachmen at home. So after passing the review of the General Office and the General Administration of Political Security, they became servants of the Wu family. Because the issue of whether the senators owned domestic slaves was not discussed, they signed employment contracts rather than deeds of sale.
The couple live in a small church. Sister Ju comes to the house at 5:30 every day to help with the cooking, and then is responsible for the housework of the family. Chu Qing is now also a member of the Agricultural Committee system, a major naturalized cadre, and works I'm very busy and don't have time to take care of my family too much. Old man Liu is responsible for pulling carts and doing other chores for Wu Nanhai.
"Sir, breakfast is ready."
As Chu Qing spoke, she came over with a plate of breakfast and placed it on the Eight Immortals table. The staple food for breakfast is pickled rice with vegetables: cold rice cooked last night with water and chopped green vegetables. The porridge is served with a platter of four kinds of pickles produced by Tianchu Food Factory: olives, pickled radish, shrimp oil cucumbers, and Sichuan style pickles. Chinese cabbage. There is also an omelette for each person.
"Originally I wanted to make preserved egg porridge, but I forgot to grind the rice last night." Chu Qing untied the apron strings behind her back, "I will definitely make it tomorrow."
"It doesn't get in the way, that's fine."
As usual, there was a pre-meal prayer, with Wu Nanhai taking the lead in reciting the prayer.
After breakfast, Chu Qing was clearing away the dishes when she remembered the sound of the doorbell.
At this time there was a knock on the door, and Sister Ju went to open the door. Then he came to report that a messenger from the Senate had arrived.
"Invite him to the living room."
The messenger came to the living room and gave a military salute: "Reporter, Yang Xingfu, a student of the special reconnaissance team's teaching unit, is here to report. This is my special pass."
Wu Nanhai checked the photos and names above. Naturalized citizens who could enter the elders' dormitory area had been carefully inspected by the guards. This was just a routine matter for him.
After confirming that it was correct, he handed the certificate back to the sergeant and said: "At ease, comrade student. You wait in the living room for a moment, and I will hand the briefcase to you right now."
Wu Nanhai turned around and entered the study. The layout of the study is not complicated, but the access control is the strictest. Not only servants like Sister Ju cannot enter, but also Chu Qing cannot enter. He alone has the key to the door.
There is a desk and a large armchair in the middle of the study. There are several sorting boxes and a lamp on the table. The Four Treasures of the Study and a Western-style inkstand coexist. There is a row of bookshelves behind the desk, filled with various documents, files and books. There is a reinforced concrete safe in the corner of the room. There are several briefcases of different colors placed on an upturned desk against the wall.
Wu Nanhai walked to the raised desk and picked up a leather briefcase with an iron fist and chrysanthemum emblem engraved on it, and a padlock hanging on it. This is the secret document box of the Senate. Because the Senate meeting is not held every day, most of the elders on the Standing Committee have their own jobs, and even some of the elders are not in Lingao. Some general content that needs to be voted on by the assembly is handled using this method of the Senate file box. It contains various contents that are open to the senators, ballots for various motions that require simple voting, and meeting minutes of various relevant parties on the motions. Every three days in the morning, soldiers from the special reconnaissance team acting as the Senate Guard will come to collect it. The documents that were delivered last time will be delivered in the box in the afternoon of the same day. After Wu Nanhai checked again to confirm that the seal he affixed last night was correct, he took it out and handed it to Yang Xingfu.
After Yang Xingfu checked that the seal was correct, he took out an acceptance registration stamp and stamped it on the seal.
"Reporter, the Senate's confidential brief box has been sealed. Please present the handover document registration form."
Chu Qing quickly took the document handover registration form and a box of ink pads from the drawer in the living room and handed them to Yang Xingfu. He carefully stamped the fingerprints and signed the date.
"My schedule is quite full today. You can send the briefcase directly to the farm cafe to wait for me in the evening." Wu Nanhai instructed.
After seeing off the messenger, Wu Nanhai looked at his schedule again: Today's work schedule is very full as usual, and it is so full that it will take up time after get off work - the elders do not work on an eight-hour work day in Lingao, the standard The working time is ten hours. There are many workaholics who work twelve or even sixteen hours a day, or even stay awake for days and nights. For this reason, the Ministry of Health had to issue a health warning, requiring senior officials to sleep at least eight hours a day and not stay up late to work continuously. To be continued.
