Zhou Yang came outside the house and saw a dozen soldiers unloading things from the car outside, and all the unloaded things were moved to his house.
These things are all packed in sacks, and I don’t know what they are.
But based on Zhou Yang's experience, he could still guess that it should be some grain.
At that moment, Zhou Yang said to Zhang Hanwu who was following him: "Director Zhang, what are you doing?"
Zhang Hanwu smiled and said: "These are some local specialties given to you!"
"specialty?"
"That's just some grains, both coarse and fine grains!"
"This...how can this be done? Besides, I don't lack food and drink here..."
Before he finished speaking, Zhang Hanwu said sternly: "I know you are not short of food and drink, but if you have it, you have it. We represent all the cadres and masses of Dongquan Farm and want to express our sincerity. You can't refuse!"
"But..."
Before he could finish speaking, Anping also echoed: "Comrade Zhou Yang, it's not easy for us to come all the way here. If you don't accept it, wouldn't our trip be in vain?"
"Besides, the cadres and people on the farm are thinking of you. If it weren't for you, I don't know how many people would have died last year. We wouldn't be able to explain to everyone if we just go back like this!"
Seeing that Director Zhang and Anping had talked about this, Zhou Yang knew that he couldn't accept these things by himself, so he immediately said: "Okay, I will accept the things, thank the comrades on the farm for me!"
"Okay, we'll bring the words to you!"
At this time, Anping suddenly said: "By the way, Comrade Zhou Yang, there are too many units ordering bricks and tiles from our farm brick and tile factory right now. We plan to build a few more kilns nearby. Is that okay?"
Zhou Yang thought about the market prospects of brick and tile factories. Generally speaking, before the millennium, the market prospects of brick and tile factories had always been good.
After all, as the country's focus shifted to economic construction, the national economy developed rapidly.
When people get money, the first thing they think of is improving their living environment, and building a house is their first choice.
Bricks and tiles are needed to build a house, and the quality of the gangue fired bricks he taught Dongquan Farm can indeed beat the ordinary bricks on the market, so the market prospects of the brick and tile factory are still very good.
"I support building new kilns, but I think it's better not to build an old-fashioned horseshoe kiln, but to build a more mechanized dragon kiln!" Zhou Yang said.
"Dragon kiln?"
"right!"
Knowing that they were all from the army and didn't know much about these things, Zhou Yang immediately found paper and pen and started writing and drawing on them.
Soon, the floor plan of a medium-to-large dragon kiln with 24 doors was drawn.
Then, Zhou Yang marked out the various functional layouts of the dragon kiln and the required machinery and equipment on the drawings.
Then, he handed the drawing to Zhang Hanwu and said at the same time: "This is a simple drawing of the dragon kiln. Take it back and give the drawing to Lao Xu or Lao Liang. They can understand it!"
Zhang Hanwu immediately said happily: "Okay, okay, with this drawing, it will save a lot of trouble!"
Anping said with a smile: "I came here to thank you, but I didn't expect to take advantage of you again. This is a big deal!"
"Haha, how cheap is this? I'm very happy that you can come!" Zhou Yang said with a smile.
Zhang Hanwu looked at his watch and then said: "It's getting late, we have to leave. We'll come see you when we have time!"
"Why are you in such a hurry? Why don't you leave after eating?"
"It's too late. The military subdivision is in urgent need of bricks and tiles. We must get to the city before dark!" Zhang Hanwu said.
"Since I have a mission, I won't keep you here. By the way, write down my office phone number. If you need anything in the future, call me directly!"
Hearing this, Zhang Hanwu was a little surprised and said: "Okay, the office has a phone call!"
Although they knew that Zhou Yang was quite capable, they didn't know what Zhou Yang was doing now, let alone that his current identity and achievements had exceeded their expectations.
"Hahaha, it's just a phone call, nothing to make a fuss about!"
Afterwards, Zhou Yang wrote his office phone number on a piece of stationery and handed it to Zhang Hanwu.
After Zhang Hanwu took it, he folded it and put it solemnly in his jacket pocket, and then left the Zhou family with Anping and others.
........
After sending Zhang Hanwu and Anping away, Zhou Yang and Li Youwei returned to the house, and then they were dumbfounded when they looked at the sacks on the ground.
Each of these sacks weighed about 1,670 kilograms, and there were as many as seven or eight in number.
In addition, there is a white plastic bucket on the ground. The bucket is filled with golden liquid and has a faint scent of oil.
Zhou Yang could tell at a glance that this was a barrel of flax oil.
Looking at the 50-pound bucket, Zhou Yang felt a little moved in his heart.
He initially helped the farm find water sources, build wells, and build brick kilns, mainly because he wanted to help his parents.
After his parents were transferred from Dongquan Farm, he no longer paid attention to that small place.
Unexpectedly, they still remembered him and even made a detour of dozens of kilometers to give him "specialties". This was more of a sign of courtesy and thoughtfulness.
Moreover, what moved Zhou Yang even more was the meaning behind them giving these things.
Zhang Hanwu and others were unwilling to enter the office of the brigade headquarters, but sent the things directly to his home. Apparently they were worried that the villagers would see them.
From this alone, Zhou Yang could tell that Zhang Hanwu and others must have thought that their Babaoliang Village had suffered the same disaster as the commune members in Huaxian and Shangxian counties, and they were worried that they would be hungry, so they specially sent them these grains. of.
This sentiment alone is enough to move people!
Compared with Zhou Yang's inner emotion, Li Youwei was more curious about what kind of food was in these sacks, and then asked: "What is in these sacks?"
"You'll know if you take it apart and take a look!"
At that moment, Zhou Yang crouched down to the sack closest to him and untied the rope in three strokes.
After opening the sack, the couple and Liu Yunlong saw that it was full of yellow millet.
Good guy, with such a sack of millet, just a few of them can last at least two years just by eating porridge.
Then Zhou Yang untied the other sacks one by one and found that there were two sacks of wheat, one sack of oats, one sack of millet, one sack of soybeans, one sack of corn and two sacks of yam eggs.
All gifts are considered the same, they are all truly "local specialties".
Looking at the sacks full of food, Li Youwei said with emotion: "Director Zhang and the others are spending too much money!"
"Well, I'm interested!"
"Actually, we are not short of food. You just collected some symbolically and let them take the rest back..."
Before he finished speaking, Zhou Yang shook his head: "It's useless, they won't pull you back!"
Although Zhou Yang's family was not short of food, he was still particularly moved when he saw these well-matched coarse and fine grains and sesame oil.
But in this era of scarcity, this is the best they can come up with.
But what they didn't know was that Babaoliang Village also had a bumper harvest of food this year.
Therefore, after being moved, Zhou Yang and Li Youwei started to worry about what to do with so much food!
This is 1,400 to 500 kilograms of grain!
In addition, the village will soon distribute food, and the few people in their family simply cannot eat so much food.
"Then what should we do with the food now? There is too much?"
"Put it away first. It's a good thing to have surplus food at home!" Zhou Yang said.
"OK!"
Later, Zhou Yang, with Liu Yunlong's assistance, carried the sacks of grain to the warehouse next door.
