Babaoliang Village. Brigade Headquarters.
After Cui Jinjin and Liu Lu left, Zhou Yang also took Chen Beixuan out of the broadcast room.
The main reason is that Zhou Yang knows that the time for the county radio station to rebroadcast the news program of China Central Radio is fixed, usually starting at nine o'clock in the morning.
It was not yet eight o'clock, so while there was still some time, he planned to go to the warehouse behind to see everyone dividing the food.
Distributing food and vegetables is the busiest time of the year in the village. In previous years, anyone who could move would come to watch the fun.
What's more, this year, the people of not only Babaoliang village, but seven or eight villages including Dawuhao, Zhangjia Village, Zuojia Village, etc. will be sharing food together, which will definitely make it more lively.
The place where food is distributed is in the backyard of the new brigade headquarters, which is actually the yard of the old brigade headquarters.
Since the new brigade headquarters was built in front of the original brigade headquarters, after the brigade headquarters was moved to the new location, all the buildings in the old brigade headquarters were vacated and turned into warehouses.
One part is used to store grains and vegetables, and the other part is used to store production tools, such as shovels, hoes, sickles, etc.
Since they were right next to each other, Zhou Yang and Chen Beixuan arrived in the backyard within a few minutes.
As soon as he came over, Zhou Yang was shocked by the scene in front of him.
I saw a row of long tables about 1.5 meters long in a huge backyard, with each table dozens of meters apart.
At this time, each table is a serving station, and each serving station only serves one kind of vegetable.
For example, if the table closest to Zhou Yang is for sharing cabbage, then they can only share cabbage at this point, and if they want to share carrots, they can get the one next door.
But whether it was the place where cabbage was being distributed or the place where carrots were being distributed, people and cars were all around.
When he came to the place where the cabbage was being distributed, Zhou Yang saw that behind the table were young people from the village, mainly men.
They are responsible for carrying the vegetables out of the warehouse in baskets, and then weighing them at the long table, and then the young and middle-aged people from each production team check and load them onto the truck.
These young people are quick and efficient, and a mule carriage is often filled in less than five or six minutes.
And when one car is full, the cars behind it immediately fill up. There is a tacit understanding between people and between people and cars.
Every time this time comes in the village, there are always people watching the excitement, and today is no exception.
Therefore, in addition to the people who move, weigh, and load the food, there are a large number of people watching at every place where the food is distributed. These people are mainly the people of the village who are waiting to distribute the food and the elderly who have lost the ability to work. .
Everyone gathered around the dishes, chatting with each other while watching others share their dishes.
Furthermore, in addition to the animal-drawn vehicles such as mules, horses, oxen and donkeys in the yard, tractors from the village were also sent over to help various production teams deliver vegetables.
For a time, the braying of donkeys, the neighing of horses, and the shouts of people, plus the "dah-dah" sound of the tractor, intertwined into a symphony of human fireworks in the backyard of the brigade headquarters.
At this moment, someone shouted "The village chief is here"!
After hearing the sound, everyone stopped what they were doing.
Everyone turned around and looked around, looking for Zhou Yang in the crowd.
Although there were many people, Zhou Yang, who was wearing clean cadre uniforms and a bookish look, definitely stood out among a group of ordinary members in rags, tattered cotton hats, and colorful turbans.
There is no derogatory meaning in saying this. Anyone who is familiar with rural life knows that during the busy farming season, almost everyone has to work day and night, even village cadres are no exception. This is why it is said that women get out of bed when they are busy with wheat embroidery in August. .
Who can care about personal hygiene at this point? It is common to go a month without changing clothes or taking a shower.
I was so busy that I probably didn't even have a hot meal, so I just ate some dry food and got through it.
In this way, Zhou Yang, who was neatly dressed, became the focus of the entire backyard, and everyone's eyes were focused on him.
Wang Ping and others also noticed the situation here, and immediately walked over from the crowd with Zhang Genwang, Zuo Jiansheng, captain of the second production team, Zhang Tiehan, captain of the third production team, and others.
After arriving at Zhou Yang's side, Wang Ping said immediately: "Comrades, Comrade Zhou Yang, the village chief of Babaoliang United Village, has also come to the dish distribution scene today. Please ask Comrade Zhou Yang to say a few words for us. Everyone applauds and welcomes!"
"Bah bang bang!"
In an instant, the audience burst into thunderous applause that lasted for a long time!
After the applause subsided, Zhou Yang smiled and said: "To be honest, I'm really sorry. I am not very qualified as the village leader. Except for the members of the No. 1 Production Team (Babaoliang Village), other teams I don’t know most of the club members. But it doesn’t matter, I’m very happy to see everyone sharing dishes lively here.”
"This is the first year that our Babaoliang United Village has been officially established. Not only the more than 3,700 members of our village, the educated youth, are looking forward to this year's harvest and profits, but also the communes, counties, cities, and even the province. The leaders are also watching us.”
"Fortunately, all the comrades in our United Village are good people. In the past six months, under the leadership of the village committee, we have maintained farming and promoted production. Not only have we earned back the millions of foreign debts owed to us when we built the village, There is still a lot of surplus, and I have given a satisfactory answer to all the members and comrades as well as the superior leaders..."
Before he finished speaking, the audience burst into warm applause again!
After Zhou Yang signaled everyone to be quiet, he said again: "Comrades, as the village chief, I promise you that this year's grain and the money for the village's repurchase of collective assets of each village, as well as this year's The cash dividends will be distributed to everyone to ensure that everyone can live a prosperous and prosperous new year!"
"good!"
The courtyard once again burst into warm applause, accompanied by cheers and shouts from the majority of members!
"Everyone, hurry up and share the dishes. After the dishes are divided, let's quickly share the food!"
"good..."
After saying that, Zhou Yang did not go to other places to share food. Instead, he said hello to Wang Ping and others and returned to the front yard.
He had no choice but to go back. He found that he had become a celebrity in the village at some point. He could attract crowds and stir up excitement when he walked to a crowded place.
Although it is indeed a good thing to be recognized by the people, Zhou Yang was also very happy to see the eyes of everyone looking at him full of trust and gratitude.
But the guy was so enthusiastic and excited that he was still a little caught off guard and a little flattered.
He felt like one of those celebrity idols of later generations who would cause riots when they appeared.
So Zhou Yang felt that from now on he would just be an invisible person in the village, and if nothing happened, he would not come out to cause trouble.
Returning to the front yard with five parts joy, three parts fear and two parts helplessness, Zhou Yang saw that many educated youths had gathered in the broadcasting room.
Although there is no breakdown, judging from this scale, there are at least more than a hundred people.
At present, the total number of educated youths in the village is more than 160, but there is endless work to be done in the village every day, so it is not possible to gather all the educated youths casually.
At this time, Cui Jinjin came over and said: "Old Zhou, today many people went to other production teams to deliver food. Bai Yang and the others were busy on the finance side, plus there were more than 30 people on the school side. There was no way to come, so only more than a hundred people came.”
"enough!"
Then Zhou Yang looked at everyone and said: "Everyone be quiet. I called everyone here today mainly because I want everyone to listen to the broadcast!"
As soon as these words came out, the group of educated youths at the door were stunned.
Everyone was busy with their work, but Zhou Yang actually called them to listen to the radio. What kind of operation was this?
But these people are educated youth after all, and there are still many sensible people among them.
As soon as Zhou Yang finished speaking, someone asked loudly: "Zhou Zhiqing, has something big happened again?"
"I think there must be some policy from above, otherwise Zhou Zhiqing wouldn't have called us over!"
"Yes, I think so too..."
Zhou Yang looked at his watch and found that it was almost nine o'clock, and then said: "Don't make random guesses, everyone. You will know the specific situation in a while..."
Before he finished speaking, he heard the non-standard Mandarin spoken by the female announcer on the radio station: "Hello, fellow listeners, the news program of China Central Radio will now be broadcast..."
Immediately afterwards, the familiar prelude of the China Central Radio Station came from the loudspeaker.
Hundreds of educated youths in front of the broadcasting room pricked up their ears and listened carefully to the announcer's smooth voice.
However, after listening for a few minutes, it was all about various activities led by the state, and there was nothing new.
But just when everyone was confused, a piece of news like thunder on the ground came out from the loudspeaker...
