Rebirth: the fiery age of Mori Gong's children

Chapter 397 Winter Transport Production Begins

"That's not what you're saying. Whether he comes or not is his business. If we don't invite him, it's our fault.

No matter what happens, we can't let it go by the wayside. "Zheng Xianyong smiled and waved his hands to everyone, signaling everyone not to make random ideas.

Although there are three college students in the Sheng family, they have just gone to school after all. Even if they are assigned jobs in the future, they will have to start from the grassroots level.

At this time, it is better not to offend others casually.

No matter what he said, Feng Baosheng was also the secretary of the Qianchuan Forestry Farm. If he made a sly mouth and put on some small shoes, it would be hard for Mr. Sheng Liancheng and Mr. Sheng Liancheng to be present.

As a person, you should be more diplomatic. Even if you can't make friends, you must not offend someone.

Zheng Xianyong had already spoken, so naturally it was hard for others to say anything.

Just like that, Sheng Xikang hurried straight to the field department. He couldn't find Feng Baosheng in the field department, so he went to look for him at home.

Feng Baosheng's wife has a job in the provincial capital, and his children are also studying in the provincial capital.

Feng Baosheng was transferred here, but his family couldn't make arrangements for a while, so they were temporarily separated in the two places.

Feng Baosheng lived alone in the house before Wangjiachuan. When Sheng Xikang arrived there, Feng Baosheng was squatting in front of the stove, lighting a fire.

"Oh, Secretary Feng, it's up to me to do this."

Sheng Xikang stepped forward, took Mingzi and the match, and moved the firewood away from the pit until there was space in the middle. Then he lit Mingzi and put it inside.

"My mother once taught me that fire should be hollow and people should be humble. If the stove pit is too full, it will not light a fire."

Sheng Xikang smiled, handed the matchbox to Feng Baosheng again, then scooped some water from the water tank and added it to the pot.

"Secretary Feng, our family is hosting a banquet today, so don't bother cooking at home. Come on, come to my house to eat."

Sheng Xikang glanced at the bottom of the pot, and the firewood was already on fire.

The weather is not that cold at this time of year. After the firewood is burned, the kang will be warm.

He threw two more pieces at the bottom of the pot, then took Feng Baosheng's arm and walked out.

"Let's go for a walk. Let's go have a meal. My mother led a group of aunts and ladies to cook ten dishes. It just so happens that you can go and try our banquet."

"Hey, hey, wait a moment, I haven't said I'm going yet."

Feng Baosheng was carried out by Sheng Xikang, and he was still yelling as he walked.

"Well, it's boring to eat at home by yourself. With us, everyone is chatting and laughing.

Besides, leaders must go deep into the grassroots and become one with the masses.

You are busy with work every day. Secretary Feng, you don’t have time to understand what the workers think. Today is a rare opportunity and you just want to understand. "

Sheng Xikang didn't care about that. He carried Feng Baosheng all the way out of Feng's house and went straight to Sheng's house.

Over at the Sheng family, the food was being served, and a large group of gentlemen were sitting in the yard, chatting and laughing.

Seeing Sheng Xikang and Feng Baosheng entering the door, everyone immediately stopped, and some even stood up. "Secretary Feng."

Everyone was quite embarrassed and didn't know what to say, so they could only say hello dryly.

Feng Baosheng was also uncomfortable with it, so he could only smile dryly and nod to everyone.

"Hello everyone, hello everyone. Well, I'm here to join in the fun."

When Zheng Xianyong saw it, he hurried over and moved Feng Baosheng to their table.

It just so happened that this table was filled with forestry farm leaders. They met in the field department all day long and got to know each other better.

"Secretary Feng, we are all from the forest farm, so you are welcome. We can eat when we need to and drink when we need to.

Let me tell you, the banquet at Lao Sheng's house is considered the same in our forest farm, so you can eat as much as you want. "

Zheng Xianyong gave a thumbs up and introduced Feng Baosheng with a smile.

It’s already here, and it’s no longer time to put on airs, so Feng Baosheng sat on a chair and chatted with Zheng Xianyong.

At this time, the women who helped served the last two dishes.

Sheng Xikang came over and poured wine for all the uncles and uncles present.

"Thank you all very much for being able to attend the celebration dinner for our youngest son tonight.

Oops, to be honest, I really didn’t expect that the third child could achieve this result. I am really happy today.

Well, I was in a hurry, so I didn't prepare any delicacies, just a few simple home-cooked dishes. Don't be dissatisfied, everyone, try them all.

We don't dare to say anything else, but we have enough wine. We won't get home until we get drunk tonight. "

As the head of the family, Sheng Liancheng had to say something, so he picked up his wine glass and toasted everyone present.

"Come, let's all raise a toast together to celebrate Sheng Xikang's admission to Peking University with an excellent score of 470 and nine points.

This is our forestry farm, no, the first one in the Songjianghe Forestry Bureau, the number one winner, it’s worth celebrating.

Xikang, you must study hard when you go out and learn your true skills. Don’t let down everyone’s expectations.Don't say anything, come on, let's go. "

Zheng Xianyong answered the call and took the lead in sending blessings to Sheng Xikang. Others also responded, and then everyone raised their glasses together to celebrate together.

With good wine and delicious food in front of them, these people have been working hard in the mountains for a day, and they are hungry. Why do they care about that?

After the first glass of wine, everyone started eating and drinking. While eating, they praised the delicious food tonight.

The banquet started outside first, and Zhang Shuzhen and others waited for a while. Seeing that everyone was very happy to eat, and there was nothing going on outside, she led the helper woman and her children into the house to eat.

At first, everyone outside might be wary of Feng Baosheng's presence, so they were a little restrained and couldn't let go.

After three glasses of wine, these gentlemen forgot about being a secretary and started shouting at the top of their lungs, talking and singing in a lively manner.

Feng Baosheng was quite reserved at first, but then he gradually relaxed and exchanged glasses with the people at the same table, drinking happily.

The banquet started around five o'clock and lasted until after seven o'clock. The gentlemen were all drunk and staggering, and they helped each other to leave the banquet and go home.

The women who helped in the house had already finished eating and were waiting. As soon as the crowd dispersed outside, everyone hurried out to help clear away the dishes, chopsticks, tables and chairs.

At seven o'clock, it was already dark outside. Fortunately, the Sheng family had been prepared and turned on the lights in the yard.

Under the light, the women helped wash all the dishes and chopsticks. At this time, they didn't care about identifying whose family they were borrowed from. They put them together first and waited until the morning.

Everything inside and outside the house was tidied up. The tables, chairs and benches that could be returned were sent back first, and then the women all said goodbye and left.

After the excitement, everything returned to calm. After a busy day, everyone in the Sheng family could finally take a breath and rest.

"I have already asked for leave from the farm director and secretary, so I will leave tomorrow morning. If I leave early, I will have plenty of time and can stay in my hometown for a few more days."

Sheng Liancheng drank a lot tonight, but he was not too drunk. He was leaning against the wall of the room, with his eyes half closed, discussing with Zhang Shuzhen.

The notice stated that registration will be from September 15th to September 20th.

It was already September [-]th. They had to go back to their hometown first and then go to the capital, so they had to leave early.

"Okay, it's whatever time you say. Anyway, the luggage and everything are ready, and all the procedures for the third child to go to school have been completed.

Bring more money, don't skimp on it if you are poor or rich. "

Zhang Shuzhen didn't have any objections. Anyway, she had already prepared everything she needed to prepare, and she could leave at any time.

Zhang Shuzhen gave the two men a few more words, asking them to be more careful on the road, to be careful when going out, and not to be too serious.

Everyone chatted about the power outage in the forest farm, and then went back to the house to rest.

On the morning of the [-]th, the forest farm sent out a car to take Sheng Liancheng and his wife to Songjiang River.

When they arrived at Songjiang River, Sheng Liancheng went directly to find Zhou Mingyuan.

He told Zhou Mingyuan that he would like to arrange two tables at the Forestry Bureau hotel in the afternoon, and would like to invite the leaders of the bureau to thank them for their support.

When Zhou Mingyuan heard this, he agreed wholeheartedly, so he first settled Sheng Liancheng and his son at his home, and then went to the hotel to reserve a place.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, Zhou Mingyuan accompanied Secretary Zhao, Director Yang, Director Xu, Director He and others to the hotel.

Sheng Liancheng and his son hosted a banquet for everyone, even if it was to express their feelings and thank the leaders for taking care of Sheng Xikang.

On the morning of the [-]th, Sheng Liancheng and his son took the express train from Baihe to Shenyang. They first arrived in Shenyang, and then from Shenyang to the capital. From the capital, they transferred south to Yanzhou, and then took a bus.

After many twists and turns, I finally returned to my hometown on the afternoon of the [-]th.

People in his hometown had received a telegram from the Sheng family and knew that Sheng Xikang was admitted to Peking University. They also knew that Sheng Liancheng would take Sheng Xikang back to his hometown to visit the old man and pay homage to his ancestors.

This time, all the Sheng brothers returned to their hometown to wait. They also sent Sheng Xizheng and Sheng Xihong to drive the carriage to Xiaoyun Temple to pick them up.

Six siblings from the Sheng family gathered together. Sheng Yaozu and his wife were so excited when they saw their second son and grandson that they cried first.

In the evening, a sumptuous meal was prepared at home for Sheng Liancheng and his son. The brothers chatted until midnight and did not want to sleep.

The next day, a large family went to the Sheng family's ancestral grave to worship.

There were still a lot of taboos in these days, and I didn’t dare to make a fuss about it. I just bought some incense candles and paper chips, went to the ancestors’ graves to worship and burn them, and prayed to the ancestors to protect the prosperity of the descendants of the Sheng family.

After paying homage to the ancestors of the Sheng family, Sheng Liancheng and his son stayed here for another two days, and then went to Zhang Shuzhen's natal family.

The Zhang family was extremely happy to see Sheng Liancheng and his son, and insisted on letting them stay for one night.

Sheng Liancheng rarely returns to his hometown and really wants to stay a few more days, but Sheng Xikang is about to start school and cannot delay.

So NO.14 got up early, and the two of them said goodbye to everyone in their hometown and embarked on a journey to the capital.

Sheng Liancheng sent his son to Peking University, completed the admission procedures with Sheng Xikang, and bought some daily necessities.

Sheng Liancheng was thinking about home, so how could he have the time to wander around outside?I stayed in the capital for two days and then took the train back.

I hurriedly hurriedly and slowly along the way, but when I got home, I still couldn't catch up with my grandson's first birthday.At this time, October [-]st was only a few days away.

Originally, Feng Baosheng had planned that front-line production staff would go up to the mountain to start work in September.But it's almost eleven, and even the temporary railway branch lines and tractor tracks haven't been repaired yet.

Feng Baosheng was so anxious that he was so angry that he jumped as high as he could, but it was no use.

The construction workers at the front are unable to work, the roads are not repaired, and subsequent machinery and equipment cannot enter the logging area.

An angry Feng Baosheng called all relevant personnel to a meeting, "We started construction in July, and it's already October [-]st, and the road has not been completed yet. What's going on? What's the reason?"

Feng Baosheng was furious and had big blisters on his lips.

You know, when he came to Qianchuan Forest Farm, he made a sure decision in front of the leader and issued a military order.

At the global production meeting, cowhide was also being blown loudly. The volume of harvesting and transportation this winter will be twice that of last year.

The results of it?It's been so long and the road hasn't even been repaired, so what's the point of over-fulfilling the task?

“Due to the weather, the ground is not frozen and hard at this time, and the ditches and ponds are full of water, making construction difficult.

The tractor ran inside and easily got stuck in the mud.Otherwise, the wheels and tracks will be entangled in grass roots and branches.

Either he's giving away the big cake, or he's taking off his pants, which will delay the construction period. "The captain of the work team said so.

Throwing pancakes and taking off pants are common expressions used by tractor drivers.

When the tractor's tracks break and fall off, it's called taking off the pants.If the tractor's training wheels fall off, it's called a big pie.

This is a jargon invented by tractor drivers, and outsiders don’t understand it well.

Of course, what the captain of the work team said was just to fool a layman.

After Feng Baosheng came to the forest farm, he took a series of measures that were very unpopular. The guys didn't want to work hard at all, so they deliberately worked for foreigners.

Originally, winter is the best season for wood production. Not only is transportation convenient, but the quality of winter wood is also good.

Usually every year, we go up to the mountain to build roads in October, and the work team goes up to the mountain for logging in November, and they go down to the mountain in April of the next year, which is exactly half a year of work.

At other times, in addition to afforestation, fire prevention, forest management, and fence demolition, everyone can rest, run mountains, and do side jobs to earn more money.

But since Feng Baosheng came, everyone was asked to go to the mountains to build roads in July, and they were not allowed to ask for leave.

This autumn, we saw that all kinds of mountain products were ready all over the mountains and plains, but everyone had no chance to go home, which made everyone feel unhappy.

So they all used the pretext of working in the mountains to fool around all morning, and then all disappeared in the afternoon. They went into the forest to knock down pine cones, pick walnuts, and pick schisandra chinensis, etc.

How fast can you work like this?So by this time, the road into the logging area was only half-built.

The workers know these things very well. Zheng Xianyong often follows them into the mountains, and he is also aware of them.

Only Feng Baosheng, who has been in the forest farm for so long, seems to have only gone to the mountain twice. If he doesn't stare, he knows nothing. Why not just wait and be fooled?

“Normally, we only start building roads in October. At that time, the weather is cold and there is not much water in the ditches and ponds, so construction is convenient.

Moreover, the forest trees are also brittle in autumn and winter, the grass is dry and has no toughness, and tractors and other things are not disturbed. "

The captain of the second engineering team continued to say over there, and the meaning behind his words was obvious. Don't blame others for this matter. Why do you think some people don't understand anything and they have to give blind orders?
Feng Baosheng was very angry at these people, but he was helpless.

He is only one person. Even if he goes up to the mountain to work with a pick and a shovel, what effect can he have? Isn't it still in vain?

"Then the weather will get colder in the future, so the road should be repaired faster, right?" Feng Baosheng asked helplessly.

"Who knows about this? We all have been working in the mountains for almost three months. Who is not as tired as my grandson? He is too tired to do any work.

Besides, the tractor hasn't been inspected for a long time, and something goes wrong all the time. How can we work on it? "

The captain of the third work team curled his lips. The work team had never had a holiday since Feng Baosheng arrived at the forest farm. How could anyone work like this?

Even if it is a machine, it still needs to be inspected and maintained. Humans are not machines. Who can stand working all day without rest?
Feng Baosheng was forced to have no choice but to agree to give the work team a seven-day holiday to have a good rest.

All machines also take the opportunity to undergo maintenance and repairs to prevent them from breaking down again during work.

At this time, everyone was finally happy and ended the meeting happily. They went to the bathhouse to take a bath and then went home to have a good sleep.

On the third day, I saw these people carrying baskets on their backs, all heading into the mountains.

Whether it's mushrooms, walnuts, pine nuts, or hazelnuts, you can just pull whatever you catch. It's rare to have some time. Who can stay at home?
Sheng Liancheng and Sheng Xiping were not left behind, so they entered the mountain carrying baskets and sacks on their backs.

Their main target is the pine cone, and they don’t want to get too much, just a few dozen kilograms in total. They will keep some for their own consumption, and use the rest as favors or other things.

The second and third eldest children have all gone to school, and the family has lost two good helpers at work. Sheng Xiping climbed trees and used poles to push down the tower.

Sheng Liancheng picked up under the tree. After picking up a sack, he stood it upright next to the big tree.

After picking up another sack, Sheng Liancheng asked Sheng Xiping to come down. The two men sewed the mouth of the sack shut with wire, and then each of them walked home carrying a sack.

We didn’t plan to sell pine nuts this year, so we didn’t go too far, just wandering around the woods around the forest farm.

Some people have a lot of hard work and want to take advantage of the opportunity to earn some money, so they find large red pine forests to build pine cones.

At this time of year, everyone in the forest farm, regardless of age or sex, goes into the forest, and those who can paddle pull back as much as possible.

Women cannot go up trees to knock down pine cones or carry pine cones on their backs. They can pick mushrooms, schisandra chinensis, mountain grapes, soft dates, etc.

If it had been left until now, the school would have had a busy fall vacation, and the children would have gone up to the mountain to help.

But this year, Principal Wang has announced that there will be no farm holidays in the spring and autumn, and afforestation will be limited to senior primary school students and first and second grade students in junior high schools.

Students in the third grade of junior high school and high school must stay in school. No matter who they are, no one can interfere with the children's learning.

The work team was on holiday, but the workers did not rest at home. Instead, they all carried baskets and sacks on their backs and went up the mountain to haul goods.

Feng Baosheng is not blind, can he still see?
By this time, he finally understood that he came here alone, without a few reliable helpers around him, and could not suppress the people in the forest farm at all.

Therefore, Feng Baosheng immediately called the province and requested to allocate several more tractors, winches and other mechanical equipment to Qianchuan Forest Farm this winter.

At the same time, let the leaders deploy a few skilled workers as appropriate, preferably two more for production scheduling.

In the blink of an eye, the seven-day holiday passed, and the team members went back to work in the mountains.

This time, everyone was in a much better condition and worked faster than before. They continued to work until around October 15th, and finally the road to the new logging area was repaired.

Then, commuter buses and tractors transported various materials to the new logging area to build worker dormitories, tractor storage, generator storage, mountain dispatching rooms, etc.

By the time all of this was done, it was already November, and the first snow of the year was falling.

After the snow falls, winter production at Qianchuan Forest Farm will officially begin.

Feng Baosheng was jumping up and down in a hurry to go up the mountain to work, but in the end, as in previous years, the work officially started only after the snow fell.

This made Feng Baosheng very angry, but there was nothing he could do. He was alone, how could he fight against so many people in the forest farm?
Feng Baosheng knew that someone was deliberately causing trouble behind his back, but he couldn't grasp the reason, so what could he do?
Fortunately, the superior leaders followed Feng Baosheng's request and allocated two tractors and two winches. At the same time, they also called in tractor operators, winch operators, and two production dispatchers.

This time, Feng Baosheng was finally no longer a mere commander, and he felt confident.

Since recruiting workers began in [-], the bureau has recruited two batches of migrant workers, one batch of large collectives, and this fall it has recruited another batch of agricultural and forestry workers.

After the so-called agricultural and forestry workers are recruited, in addition to doing forestry work, they also have to plant part of the land.

In fact, from this time onwards, forestry jobs were no longer saturated. However, there has been no large-scale recruitment of workers in recent years, and a large number of older educated young people have been stranded.

In order to solve the problem of stranded educated youth, the above-mentioned policy was introduced to recruit a large number of agricultural and forestry workers before the winter production season.

Although the treatment of agricultural and forestry workers is not as good as that of the whole people, it is not even as good as that of large collectives.

But everyone in the Educated Youth Team has been waiting for so many years, seeing that some of their former friends have gone to college to study, and some have been drafted into the army and become soldiers. It is really meaningless to continue to work.

Therefore, most of the remaining educated youth in Qianchuan Forestry Farm have left this group of agricultural and forestry workers.

From now on, there will be no such thing as educated youth going to the countryside.

Those who graduate from high school and can go to college go to school; those who cannot pass the exam can only stay at home and stay employed.

Originally, Chen Weimin was also on the list of this group of agricultural and forestry workers, but the bureau sent it to the provincial department. When they looked at the information, they found that he was a disabled person, so they called him back.

There's no way, it's just like this these days, the first thing you need when recruiting workers is good health.

Fortunately, after so many things, Chen Weimin looked away. He stayed in school and continued to teach music and art, and went to the labor union to help out in his spare time.

The forestry farm gave him a reward and a subsidy from the bureau, which was completely enough.

Therefore, Chen Weimin no longer ran around like a headless fly like before. Instead, he went to work and went home at night to create literature.

This year, the overall situation has recruited more than 800 agricultural and forestry workers. Qianchuan Forest Farm has 80 people, which is sufficient manpower and sufficient machinery and equipment.

Logically divided into three work teams, each work team happens to use two tractors to collect materials, so the work efficiency can be much higher.

But Feng Baosheng was not satisfied with this. The cow he boasted was to double the output, but such production could not achieve the expected results.

So Feng Baosheng proposed that this year the work should be divided into six work teams, each with a tractor and a harness for oxen and horses.

The forest farm rents oxen and horses from the large alkali farm to drag the wood, and they cooperate with the tractors, which makes it more efficient.

For this reason, Feng Baosheng specially promoted three people from among the forestry workers to be work captains.

These three people were selected by Feng Baosheng after careful observation. They all had unpleasant experiences with Zheng Xianyong.

Feng Baosheng deliberately showed favor to them and promoted them in an unusual way, just to use these people for his own use.

No matter what year, no matter where, there can never be a monolith. There are always a few who will adapt to the wind and lick their beards, so these three people happily served as the work captains.

"Xiping, come here, I have something to do with you."

After work that day, director Zheng Xianyong and director Zhao Limin found Sheng Xiping and said they had something to discuss with him.
