Jiang Hua smiled when he saw his sneaky look, and said with a smile: "Are you selling books? You need to be so careful. You will make people wonder if you have done something bad."
"Is there any?" The stall owner raised his voice and said, "I'm just a little embarrassed."
Everyone in Jianghua said with speechless faces: "You are trying to cover up your secrets again. You didn't really do something you shouldn't have done, did you?"
The stall owner saw that the man in front of him had very sharp eyes, so he lowered his voice and said, "I got some books from the library, books that I can't explain clearly."
This makes sense, no wonder the library is closed today.
Jiang Hua lowered his voice and asked, "Is it smooth?"
The stall owner nodded, Jiang Hua looked around and said, "You are too courageous. It doesn't matter. You are still selling here. The library is not open today. It must have been discovered. You can take care of yourself."
At this time, the staff of the Revolutionary Committee had arrived at the big market. Of course, the book seller didn't know yet. Although he was a little nervous, he still wanted to sell the book.
"Brother, do you want us to finish the transaction and go back to each house and let them check it out? They can find something."
The educated young man squatting seemed to like these books very much, so he said, "If you make them cheaper, I will take all of them."
The two began to talk about the price. Jiang Hua also squatted down and flipped through the books in the guy's handbag. These books were not to Jiang Hua's taste, but Zheng Tong and Jiang Biyun might like them.
Jiang Hua said: "Two one adds to five, the two of us are half the target, and the goal is smaller."
"OK."
If Jiang Hua had a smaller goal, he would have impressed the guy who bought the book.
After the transaction was completed, the book seller hurried away with the money. Jiang Hua put the book into his satchel, actually putting it into the space, so that it would be foolproof.
The intellectual young man buying the book looked at Jiang Hua and asked, "What's your surname, brother?"
"Jianghua."
"My name is Zhao Shuguang."
Zhao Shuguang lowered his head and thought for a while, then said in surprise: "You are Jianghua who improved composting, right? I heard that you recently built a reservoir, which is great. I am an educated youth from Podi Village. We have a serious water shortage there. It’s a pity that it’s too far away from the Wuding River, and if we want to divert water, the project would be too large.”
"Then do you have any countermeasures? Did the leader say that man can conquer nature?"
Zhao Shuguang took a breath and said: "We also know, but the population of Podi Village is not large, and the terrain is high. It is a bit of a dream to just rely on Podi Village to complete the water diversion project, and the help that the commune and the county can provide It’s not much. We thought about it and the only option was to build a well, but the cost was too high, several thousand.”
"Is there a water vein below the village?"
Speaking of this, Zhao Shuguang said happily: "There is indeed a water vein. I have detected it before. It's a pity that I don't have the money. I'm not afraid of your jokes. The children in the village can't take a bath several times a year. In summer, they wipe it with a wet towel." Even after washing, the villagers’ biggest wish is to drink water.”
"What's so funny about this? When we go to the countryside, we have to give full play to our advantages. Seeing that you also want to make a difference, then find a way to help them dig wells."
Zhao Shuguang said with emotion: "It's thousands of dollars. Even if we empty out our family's wealth, we may not be able to come up with it."
Jiang Hua said: "All roads lead to Rome. If one road doesn't work, then find another one. This is different from being a human being. You have to have a strategy."
Zhao Shuguang rolled his eyes and asked Jiang Hua for advice: "How do you say this?"
"First, you have to ask for help from the commune and the county. Begging for help is in vain. If you can ask for some funds, it is good. Even if you can't ask for funds, it is good to ask for some supplies or promises. Second, the village must find a way to do it on its own. There are still some ways to make money. You can make a promise to the commune that we go out and get some money ourselves. It won't be considered a violation of our rules. As for the third one, you have to find a way with the well-drilling team. People's hearts are full of flesh. , keep him warm, maybe they will take less."
Zhao Shuguang frowned and thought about the meaning of Jiang Hua's words. It seemed to make sense, but he still couldn't make up his mind on what to do.
"Brother Shuguang, why are you here?"
Jiang Hua and Zhao Shuguang looked up and saw a pretty little girl standing in front of them.
Zhao Shuguang asked: "Jun Ting, are you coming to the market?"
The little girl named Jun Ting looked around and said in a low voice: "A batch of books are missing from the county library. My uncle Du came to the library to check, and I followed him to play. Who is this comrade?"
Jiang Hua and Zhao Shuguang looked at each other, the people in the county moved so fast.
Zhao Shuguang handed over his bag: "This is Jiang Hua, an advanced model of intellectual youth who has been commended by your Uncle Du several times. This is my bag, please check it."
Jun Ting pushed the bag back and said with a smile: "One of you is my brother and the other is a role model. I have nothing to worry about. There is no need to check."
"Jun Ting, how did the examination go?"
Jiang Hua sounded familiar, and when he turned around, he saw that it was the fat director.
The little girl said happily: "The inspection was pretty good and nothing was found. Uncle Du, this is my brother Zhao Shuguang. You should know this man."
The fat director saw Jiang Hua and said happily: "Jiang Hua, why are you here in the county today?"
"Hello, Director Du. I was originally planning to go to the county library to read books on agriculture, but I didn't expect it was closed today, so I thought I would come to the library to see if there is anything I need."
Director Du did not doubt that he was there. He pulled Jiang Hua aside and turned around to tell the little girl: "Jun Ting, I'll have a chat with Jiang Hua. Please wait a moment."
Director Du pulled Jiang Hua to a corner and said: "Jiang Hua, we are now required by the superiors to recommend workers, peasants and soldiers to go to college. You are a model of educated youth in our county, and there are records of meritorious service in your file. I think you are fully qualified." , so I decided to recommend you to go to university, Beijing University, what do you think?"
This is what Jiang Hua expected, but he said very modestly: "I am a brick of the motherland. I can move it wherever it is needed."
Director Du was very happy and said: "Very good, your attitude is very good. I have already reported it. I think you should be able to pass with your performance. Go back and wait for the notification. Be careful to keep a low profile."
"Okay, Director Du."
After Jiang Hua finished speaking, Director Du left with the girl named Jun Ting.
Zhao Shuguang wiped the sweat from his forehead and said with lingering fear: "You are so brave. You still have a book in your bag. You dare to talk to the director like this without fear of revealing your secret."
Jiang Hua smiled and said, "There's no point in being afraid. If he calls me over, why can't I agree? The more I cover up, the more flaws there will be. It's better for me to be more generous and he won't suspect it."
