On the gravel road leading to the county seat, the east wind truck was driving fast, raising waves of dust!
Except for the driver Xiao Lizi, there was only Zhou Yang and his family in the car.
Zhou Yang has done a lot during his time at Dongquan Farm!
First, with his hard work, he successfully drilled four deep water wells, solving the problem of water shortage on the farm.
At present, the villagers are working overtime to water the fields and save crops. It is estimated that they will be able to harvest some food in the autumn, and the survival crisis has been solved for the time being.
In addition, under his preparation, the experimental kiln in Nanpo also achieved great success.
The quality of the fired coal gangue sintered bricks is completely inferior to that of ordinary clay bricks!
Although it is just an experimental kiln, the most important thing Dongquan Farm lacks is talents. I believe that with the specific kiln construction plan he left behind, they will soon be able to build a real brick and tile factory belonging to the farm.
Then he quickly occupied the brick and tile market in Huaxian County and improved his life.
Besides, many things must be led by the master, and cultivation depends on the individual.
There is only so much Zhou Yang can do, the rest is up to them.
Seeing that there were only two days left in the half-month vacation, Zhou Yang started thinking about going home.
But before going home, Zhou Yang decided to go to the county town to buy some things for his parents.
This place is really miserable, and it is inconvenient for parents to go out. Even if they give them money, it is difficult to buy things, so Zhou Yang can only buy things for them himself.
With a truck, the speed is fast!
Before eleven o'clock in the morning, the big truck stopped at the door of the supply and marketing cooperative!
Although it was just a dilapidated truck that made a lot of noise when running, it still attracted many people's attention.
No matter what kind of car it is these days, as long as it has an engine, it is a rare thing, including tractors!
And those who can ride in a car are even more incredible.
Ignoring everyone's curious looks, Zhou Yang jumped out of the car and then hugged Bao'er down.
Finally, Li Youwei was picked up again!
The chassis of the military truck is extremely high, and it would be difficult for a man like Zhou Yang to get up and down, let alone a little woman like Li Youwei.
After getting off the bus, the family of three went directly to the supply and marketing cooperative.
Li Youwei was also a little surprised when she saw the low bungalow in front of her.
Although Zhou Yang had previously said that the supply and marketing cooperative in Huaxian County was very shabby and small, she did not expect it to be so shabby and small, just like the small temple behind the village.
Whether it is the Yunshan County Supply and Marketing Cooperative or the Ning City Supply and Marketing Cooperative, they are both very high-end.
Regardless of whether it is a bungalow or a building, the floor height is much higher than that of ordinary private houses.
Coupled with a big wooden sign hanging on the door, the temperament will be different.
However, the Huaxian Supply and Marketing Cooperative in front of us has a floor height of less than two meters by visual inspection. Even the Zhou family's house in the village is higher than this, and it is completely unworthy of the name of a supply and marketing cooperative.
But when she got inside, Li Youwei discovered that the house here was not short.
But because they are partly built underground, the buildings above appear a bit short.
"Why are their houses built underground?" Li Youwei asked puzzledly.
Zhou Yang smiled and said, "To keep warm!"
"Keep warm?"
"Well, building a house this way will keep you warm in winter and cool in summer while keeping out the wind. Even in the northwest region, many places build houses into pits, with no buildings visible above them!" Zhou Yang said.
"Is there anyone else who builds a house like this?"
"Well, I'll take you to see it if I have a chance in the future!"
"OK..."
As they were talking, a saleswoman in her twenties asked them, "Comrade, are you buying or selling?"
Supply and marketing cooperatives these days can not only sell things, but also shoulder the important task of purchasing some agricultural products, such as eggs and so on!
This is called unified purchasing and marketing within the supply and marketing system!
"shopping!"
With that said, Zhou Yang took out a piece of paper from his pocket and handed it over!
"Follow the list!"
He is not afraid that this lesbian is illiterate. After all, those who can work in units such as supply and marketing cooperatives these days basically have to have a junior high school education.
The saleswoman took Zhou Yang's shopping list with a puzzled look on her face, and then read it carefully.
After just two glances, he showed a shocked expression!
"Comrade...you...do you really want so many things? This will cost a lot of money?"
Zhou Yang nodded and said, "Well, feel free to take it, we can settle the bill!"
"That's okay!"
As he spoke, the saleswoman bought the things he needed according to the list listed by Zhou Yang.
5 pounds of chicken cake, 2 pounds of peanuts, 5 pounds of melon seeds, 5 bags of milk sugar, 2 pounds of white sugar, 2 pounds of brown sugar, 6 bottles of canned sugar water, 6 cans of malted milk, 12 bags of milk powder, two boxes of Huaxian old wine... ....
After a while, there were a lot of them on the counter!
After doing the calculation, the total was 106.52 yuan. In addition, 18 kilograms of food stamps, 6 kilograms of sugar stamps and 11 industrial stamps were needed!
Seeing that Zhou Yang actually took out such a large amount of money, the salesperson and the people around him were shocked.
This was the first time they had seen people buying things like this!
Normally when everyone comes to the supply and marketing cooperative, if they have a big "unity" card on them, they will look very fashionable, and they have to hold their heads high when walking.
They had never heard of someone selling it for more than a hundred yuan.
The most important thing is that everyone saw that all Zhou Yang bought were snacks and supplements, and it didn't look like it was a wedding.
In addition, I saw them getting out of the car just now, so everyone began to guess their identities.
Zhou Yang doesn't care about this. He doesn't live in Hua County anyway. Who knows who he is after he leaves tomorrow!
After carrying all the things he bought to the car, Zhou Yang asked Xiao Li to drive to the county hospital while he bought some medicines.
The medical conditions at Dongquan Farm are so poor that even a small cold can kill someone.
But they don't lack doctors. The management office has its own health workers, and the village also has doctors and professors sent from large hospitals or medical universities.
However, it’s hard for a good woman to make a meal without rice. No matter how good your medical skills are, it’s all useless without medical equipment and medicines!
Shen Nong was just a bad old man after leaving Baicao, let alone these people!
Originally, Zhou Yang wanted to discuss with Zhang Hanwu to see if he could build a simple clinic for the villagers.
But Zhang Hanwu said that this kind of thing needs to be applied for by the superiors, and the application will not be approved within ten or twenty days.
Zhou Yang could only give up this idea. After all, his time was limited. Let Zhang Hanwu and others handle this kind of matter themselves.
As for Zhou Yang, all he can do is buy more emergency medicines for his parents, such as common cold, fever, anti-inflammatory, and analgesic medicines.
This thing can really save lives sometimes!
After coming out of the county hospital, Zhou Yang saw that it was getting late, so he took his wife and daughter into the car and returned to Dongquan Farm.
When we returned to the farm, it was already past two in the afternoon.
But what surprised Zhou Yang was that his parents were at home today and did not go to work in the fields.
After asking, I found out that everyone knew that Zhou Yang and the others were leaving tomorrow, so they specially asked Zhou Yawen and his wife to spend time with their children in the afternoon.
Zhou Yawen and Ye Lifang did not refuse the kindness of the villagers.
Ever since his son came to the farm, he has been as busy as a spinning top, especially in the next few days, when it was difficult for them to see each other.
Seeing that they were leaving tomorrow, the old couple was naturally very reluctant to leave and wanted to talk more with their son.
Seeing that their son had bought so many things, Zhou Yawen and Ye Lifang were happy that their son and daughter-in-law were filial, but they couldn't help complaining that their son was too good at spending money.
In response, Zhou Yang just smiled and said nothing more!
The whole afternoon, the family chatted in their shack, full of reluctance to say goodbye.
Time passed unconsciously!
At 6:30 p.m., someone from the farm management office suddenly came and blew the whistle for an emergency gathering.
Later, Zhang Hanwu's voice came from the loudspeaker: "Attention all farmers, attention: Comrade Zhou Yang will leave tomorrow. Everyone will gather at the management office in the evening to hold a farewell party for Comrade Zhou Yang and his family... "
