Chapter 290

Niu Bold has a stubborn temper, but now his prestige in the village is far inferior to Wang Zhong, and even slightly inferior to Ma Renli.

Ma Renli's background is indeed not good, but that was in the past, and now Ma Renli is a hero of the Anti-Japanese War and saving the country. For this reason, he has been imprisoned and persecuted, and even his studies have been delayed because of this. This alone is enough to let the villagers They changed their views on Ma Renli.

What's more, he also participated in the design of the water conservancy and irrigation project in Maixiang Village. Ma Renli also contributed a lot to matters such as crop rotation, intercropping and oil extraction workshop.

Although Niu Bold insisted, he still couldn't hold back the majority of people, and the free market of the Maixiang Brigade still hadn't started.

The oil-pressing workshop has been operating steadily, and the oil extracted is still the same as before, part of which is for personal use, and part of which is uniformly purchased by the buyers of the county supply and marketing cooperative.

Almost three or four months passed, and it seemed that the end of the new year was approaching. With more and more free markets in the surrounding counties and cities, the spirit of the higher authorities became clearer. The free market allows ordinary people to sell small agricultural and sideline products that are not on the list of materials for unified purchase and sales.

The yellow smoke that Niu boldly wanted to sell happened to be the material that was purchased and sold by the central government.

In the beginning, only cotton, grain, and oil belonged to the unified purchase and marketing materials. Up to now, cotton, peanuts, live pigs, eggs, sugar, mulberry silk, silkworm cocoons, flue-cured tobacco, aquatic products and other commodities have been added, and private sales are not allowed. sell.

Although to a certain extent, the measures of unified purchase and marketing may seem a little unreasonable, and even affect the circulation of goods to a certain extent, limiting the spark of the economy, but when he is really in this special historical stage, Wang Zhong has great respect for the country. Adopting the strategic decision of unified purchase and marketing is supported from the bottom of my heart.

In fact, there are many benefits to the unified purchase and marketing, especially during the period of the three-year famine that just passed, the unified purchase and marketing of grain also prevented unscrupulous businessmen from hoarding and making great fortunes for the country.

Floods in the Yangtze River Basin in [-] caused widespread famine in the lower reaches of the Yangtze River. At this time, some merchants bought grain in the market, hoarded it, and then sold it at a price much higher than the market price. Some people even went to the countryside to buy food. Qingmiao, his intentions are not without sinister.

At that time, the world was initially settled, the founding of the country was only a few years old, and the national strength was still weak, and it was at the critical time of the land reform.

And the country adopts the planned economic system to prevent these unscrupulous businessmen from exploiting the common people and scraping the people's fat and anointing.

Now that we have just passed through a three-year difficult period, the above-mentioned encouragement to open up the free market is also to revitalize the economy quickly, stimulate productivity, and allow ordinary people to resume production as soon as possible and improve their lives.

Naturally, Wang Zhong didn't bother to go to the free market to show his face, but Jiang Hongguo and his two sons were very interested in it. After Jiang Hongguo and his two sons left, Wang Zhong could only stay at home with his daughter. .

On the big kang in the room, Wang Zhong was leaning against the wall and next to the window, wearing a wolf fur coat and a hat made of colorful raccoon skin.

"father!"

"father!"

"Look!"

The little girl was very active, because she was still young and couldn't walk steadily, so she crawled up and down on the kang, stood up staggeringly while leaning on the wall, walked up to Wang Zhong, and put her white and tender little fist Stretched out in front of Wang Zhong.

"What are you reading?" Wang Zhong put down the book in his hand and asked his daughter with a smile.

The little girl spread out her palms with a smile, as always, empty and empty.

"My Douding's hands are so pretty!" Wang Zhong grabbed his daughter's hand and looked at it seriously.

Xiao Douding is Wang Zijin's nickname.

"Book!"

"Book!"

Xiao Douding is restless and full of curiosity about everything, especially what he likes in other people's hands.

Naturally, Wang Zhong would not give the book to her. If the book is in Xiao Douding's hands, it might be torn into pieces. itself also has a certain value.

Although Wang Zhong has read a lot of books, he is only limited to those that have been handed down. Now that he has come to this special age, it is inevitable that he is interested in some books that have disappeared in the long river of history.

Wang Zhong refused, Xiao Douding snatched it for a while, but couldn't get it anyway, so he simply climbed onto Wang Zhong's body, grabbing whatever he could with his little hands, completely ignoring his father's feelings, and even tangled a lot of his hair.

After making a fuss for a while, seeing Xiao Douding poking his mouth, Wang Zhong hastily used his trump card.

"Daddy cook something delicious for Xiaodouding, okay?"

"delicious!"

"delicious!"

Xiaodouding's eyes lit up instantly.

Wang Zhong picked up the strap, skillfully hung Xiaodouding in front of him, took out two pears from the space as if by magic, and made a bowl of pear soup for Xiaodouding, which made Xiaodouding's stomach swell.

Not long after she was full, the little girl became sleepy, and Wang Zhong hugged and coaxed her a few times before falling asleep.

Not long after, Ma Renli came to visit with his son in his arms.

"It's really cold today!" As soon as he entered the room, Ma Renli hurriedly carried his son onto the kang.

Looking around, he asked, "Where are your siblings? Did you go to the market?"

"Didn't the family save some skins in the past few years? She sold them in the market."

"His mother is also focused on getting into the free market!" Ma Renli couldn't help shaking his head looking at his son, he was afraid to avoid the free market.

"It's good to be cautious, but there is no need to be so turbulent. Isn't the policy open now? As long as it is not a unified purchase and marketing of materials, it will be sold. As long as the policy above remains unchanged, there will be no trouble."

"Who knows when the wind will change again."

Ma Renli has been afraid all these years, thanks to Wang Zhong, Niu Bold and the team members who helped him cover.

"So what if the direction of the wind changes, the big deal is to sell it, and we didn't start the free market."

The two exchanged a few words of homely chatter, chattering about some things, Ma Renli looked up at Wang Zhong, and said, "How long do you think this free market can last?"

Wang Zhong smiled and said: "I'm not a god, how could I know what the superiors think?"

"Okay, you have this spare time, why don't you think about how to coax your daughter-in-law, I heard that you are often beaten when you are at home?" Wang Zhong said with a smile.

"It's nothing!" Ma Renli immediately retorted righteously: "I'm the head of the family, how could I get beaten up? Even though you are a party secretary, you can't talk nonsense."

"Come on, what are you pretending to do in front of me!" Wang Zhong said, "Although Deng'er has a bit of a temper, it's a good thing for you. Your attitude has changed, but your origin is there, and you are an open-mouthed kid, let the lamp beat you hard, lest you cause any trouble with your blatant mouth. "

"I..." Ma Renli opened his mouth, but he didn't know how to refute.

After all, his mouth did cause trouble a lot.

As time passed day by day, Wang Zhong taught his two sons to read, and at the same time led the members of the Maixiang brigade to break ground and expand the area of ​​arable land according to the established method.

The irrigation canal connected to the reservoir has already been built. The wasteland reclaimed by Wang Zhong and the villagers basically follows the route of the newly built irrigation canal. Two chicken farms were added, and the size of the pigsty was also enlarged. Oil crops such as peanuts and soybeans were sown on a large scale in the newly reclaimed land, and the planting scale of sweet potatoes and corn was also increasing.

Sweet potato vines and hogweed alone cannot meet the needs of so many livestock. Corn and many oil crops have become the best choice for feed.

In particular, the residue left over from oil extraction has high nutritional value and can best promote fat.

In just a few short years, the family fortune of Maixiang Brigade has slowly accumulated again.

In [-], Jiang Hongguo became pregnant again and gave birth to her and Wang Zhong's fourth child, a girl. Wang Zhong named his youngest daughter Wang Ziyu, Yu Nai Meiyu. My love for this little girl.

Little Tzuyu was born only two years ago. Just when he started to improve, there were twists and turns again. First, the private land was cancelled, all of them were changed to collective land, and then there were various sports.

Fortunately, after so many years of management, Wang Zhong has accumulated a high enough prestige in the Maixiang Brigade, and without the arrival of Han Meili, the mouse shit, although the life of the Maixiang Brigade is not as easy as before, but it is not as good as in the original plot. So tough.

It’s just that Han Meili still became the deputy director of the Maixiangling Commune Revolutionary Committee as in the original plot. She was in cahoots with Zhang Defu and followed Zhang Defu very firmly. Director, on many matters, he can only turn a blind eye, close one eye, and let Han Meili decide.

The Maixiang Brigade is under Mai Xiangling's rule, so it is naturally also under Han Meili's management.

Fortunately, Han Meili is not familiar with the Maixiang brigade, she only came to visit and study a few times at the beginning, and Han Meili's main attention was on the dozens of brigades in the whole commune. Now, with his tail between his legs, he lived his own life, which was quite smooth.

The oil-pressing workshop of the Maixiang Brigade, the fishponds converted from water cellars, pig farms, and chicken farms, these inevitably became the target of public criticism.

Han Meili brought a group of militiamen to Maixiang Village in person, bossing her around, Wang Zhong naturally wouldn't go against her foolishly, and immediately ordered people to catch all the big and small fish in the fish pond, and sent them to the supply and marketing cooperative. Both the chicken farm and the chicken farm were closed, and the sows for mating were directly taken away by Han Meili and others, and the rest were distributed to various households.

The oil mill was closed, as were the chicken farms and pig pens, leaving only a mess on the ground.

"Big worm, what shall we do now?"

Ma Renli acted like a tortoise, and Niu boldly gritted his teeth with itching at the root of his teeth.

"What should I do? Cold salad!" Wang Zhong said: "Didn't you hear Deputy Director Han say that in the future, only grain crops such as wheat and corn can be grown in the field, and soybeans and peanuts are economic crops, so they are not allowed to grow any more."

"If we don't grow soybeans and peanuts, how can we extract oil?" Niu boldly was furious.

Wang Zhong looked at Niu Bold and said: "Bold, I know you are not convinced, but you must not make any fools of me."

It's a pity that Wang Zhong's beating didn't help at all. Niu Dada's stubborn temper was really a headache. In a few days, he was dismissed from the position of team leader. Zhao Youtian was promoted to team leader, and Ma Renli was the deputy team leader. It was Wang Wanchun who managed to help Niu boldly keep his position as the team leader.

Another year in the blink of an eye.

One day, Zhang Defu couldn't help frowning while looking at the food in the bowl, and immediately called the canteen director over.

"What's the matter with your canteen? Why is there less and less oil and water in the food recently?" Zhang Defu picked up the food: "Why is the meat less and less? I remember that there was a fish meal every week, why? It’s gone now? How did you, the director of the canteen, do it?”

The more Zhang Defu talked, the angrier he became, and he patted the table with his fat and short palms.

The director of the cafeteria looked embarrassed, and hurriedly explained: "Secretary Zhang, I can't help it. There are only so many ingredients every day. I can't make oil and meat out of thin air, can I?"

"You are reasonable!" Zhang Defu suddenly changed his face: "Then why did the food have enough oil and water before? Why did you have fish every week before?"

"Secretary Zhang, I'm not shirking responsibility. This matter has nothing to do with me. Purchasing ingredients is a matter of the procurement department. If you don't believe me, call Section Chief Zhang from the procurement department to ask."

Zhang Defu immediately called the head of the procurement department to him, and questioned him head on.

"Secretary Zhang, the supply and marketing cooperative doesn't have that much stock! This year's supply and marketing cooperative has [-]% less pork than last year, and at least [-]% less cooking oil..."

After some investigation, Zhang Defu's face turned livid, and he didn't say anything.

The decrease in edible oil is because the county does not allow farmers to plant oil crops such as soybeans and peanuts. The decrease in pork is because several large farms have been cancelled. As for fish, it is almost the same as the previous few.

And these policies were formulated by the extremely wise Secretary Zhang himself, and several generals under him, such as Han Meili, carried them through to the end.

Wang Zhong also seemed to be a different person. Apart from leading the villagers to work in the fields, he just stayed at home and took care of the children. He only went to the mountains occasionally to hunt and find something to eat for the children.

The children are also growing up day by day. Wang Ziyu, whose nickname is Mai Ya, has also become a treasure in the palm of the family. It can be said that Mai Ya lives a comfortable life, loved by his parents, and taken care of by his brothers and sisters. She looks handsome and handsome, and her temperament is completely opposite to that of her elder sister, Wang Zijin. She is quiet and gentle. In addition, she has studied with Wang Zhong since she was a child, so she has a strong bookish air about her.

On the other hand, Wang Zijin was a demon king when she was a child, and the older she got, the more she got out of character. She only behaved a little more well-behaved when she was in front of Wang Zhong, but outside, she was just a demon king.

Although she is a girl doll, she is surprisingly strong, her muscles and bones are strong, her natural talent is high, she likes fists and feet since she was a child,
Ma Commune of Ma Renli's family, Yang Jianguo, Niu Aimin of Niu Bold's family, and Niu Jianjun of Lao Ganbang's family were all beaten up by this girl. In the beginning, this girl really couldn't beat Ma Commune and the others when she was young, but I can't stand that she has two good brothers.

The two brothers Wang Zi'an and Wang Ziping are well-known powerful characters in the Maixiang Brigade. They practiced martial arts with Wang Zhong when they were young, and they often caused troubles. Thanks to Wang Zhong's strict discipline, they didn't cause any troubles. In the nearby brigade, there were very few young people who didn't know the names of the two brothers.

It was a name earned with fists. He practiced his fists and kicks in childhood, and later joined the militia. Under the arrangement, he entered the Armed Forces Department of the commune.

With such two formidable elder brothers, coupled with all his skills, if Wang Zijin can't make it up in the village, then it's called incompetent.
