Era: Starting from cave dwellings in northern Shaanxi

Chapter 105 Editor Lu’s true identity~
  In this college entrance examination preliminaries, a total of six people from Shuangshuiwan participated, four from the educated youth spot and two from Shuangshuiwan.

For these people, it is undoubtedly a big event.

But for the other unrelated people in Shuangshui Bay, it is far better to go to work and earn work points.

However, the old party secretary was very concerned and went to find Sun Xiangyang.

"Xiang Yang, how many of them do you think can pass the exam?"

"Isn't it a pre-selection? Even if you pass, it doesn't mean you can get into college. It just means you are truly qualified to take the college entrance examination."

Sun Xiangyang said.

"The pre-selection is also a test. If you can pass the pre-selection, it means you have a great chance."

In this regard, the old party secretary naturally has his own reasons.

"How about I call them here and show you?"

"Look?"

Sun Xiangyang looked at the old party secretary confused.

"Yes, look at their faces and see if they have a chance to get into college."

Only then did the old branch secretary explain his intention.

"You, Gao, look at me. I'm pretty good at Feng Shui, but I haven't learned anything about facial features."

Sun Xiangyang shook his head.

"Then tell me, according to the Feng Shui of Shuangshui Bay, can a college student be born? Before they left this morning, I asked them to worship the Dragon-Suppressing Stone."

The old party secretary has a tendency to become more and more convinced.

"College students can definitely come out, but not this time, so that's not necessarily the case. However, I have seen that our Shuangshui Bay is a bit prosperous recently."

"What did you say?"

At this time, the old party secretary immediately became energetic.

"It means that our Shuangshui Bay is about to change."

Sun Xiangyang began to lay the groundwork.

"Transshipment? Don't mention it. It seems that since the dragon-suppressing stone was dug out, our Shuangshui Bay has been getting better and better. Especially my body, which is stronger than in previous years. Now I eat well and sleep well."

The old branch secretary nodded. Everything else can deceive others, but his own body can't deceive him, right?

Especially since the dragon-suppressing stone is still in his home, and now he burns two sticks of incense whenever he has something to do, can Shuangshui Bay not be transferred?

After thinking for a while, the old party secretary simply said: "Xiang Yang, do you think we should build a temple and put the dragon-suppressing stone on it so that more people can come and pay their respects in the future?"

Sun Xiangyang's eyes suddenly widened and he looked at the old party secretary in disbelief.

Is this too big?
  Build an ancestral temple and offer dragon-suppressing stones?
  This is no different from seeking death.

After the old party secretary finished speaking, he also realized that he had said the wrong thing. When Sun Xiangyang stared at him like this again, he felt a little embarrassed.

"Why don't you invite the Dragon Suppressing Stone back? With you taking care of it, maybe our Shuangshui Bay will be better off."

"I'll forget it, I don't have that time. Besides, you are the branch secretary of Shuangshuiwan. Only by placing the Dragon Suppressing Stone with you can you control your luck, so I'd better leave this arduous task to you. "

Sun Xiangyang shook his head without hesitation.

Not to mention that for him, bringing back the Dragon Suppressing Stone is a trouble and a hot potato.

The old branch secretary alone would probably have trouble eating and sleeping well, and would have to run to his house eight times a day.

What if you fall ill?

For Sun Xiangyang, there is no doubt that the longer the old party secretary lives, the better.

"That's right. Apart from you, I am the only one who can bear it."

The old party secretary nodded calmly.

Then he asked about Sun Xiangyang's health with concern. After knowing that he had been taking medicine and practicing martial arts recently, and his health was getting better and better, he left with his hands behind his back and humming a tune.

A week passed in the blink of an eye, and the results of the pre-test were released.

There were six people in Shuangshuiwan and five passed.

This made the old party secretary extremely happy. Five out of six showed that Shuangshuiwan had a great chance this time.

As for the educated youth who didn't even pass the preliminaries, in his own words, he had a stomachache during the exam and his performance was abnormal, so he failed the preliminaries.

The old party secretary even came to the educated youth center to encourage them and asked them to review hard and strive to be admitted to a real university soon.

Don't be discouraged if you don't pass the exam. You can continue to take the exam next year. As for now, you can't stay in the educated youth center and disturb other people's review, so just continue to work with the production team.

On this day, Sun Xiangyang was discussing the next task with Sun Enguang in Chagouzi, when an unexpected guest came to his door.

"Editor Lu?"

Sun Xiangyang looked at Lu Weiguo, a little surprised, and didn't understand what the other party was looking for.

Could it be that Su Huiwan called him again and asked him to help deliver some news?
  Although the other party left him a contact address and work phone number before leaving, Sun Xiangyang never looked for him.

"Yes, are Captain Sun free? Can you spare a little time?"

Lu Weiguo nodded politely.

Last time at his sister-in-law's house, he truly understood what Sun Xiangyang had done from her mouth.

At that time, I had a feeling of astonishment.

After returning to the magazine, he would think of Shuangshui Bay from time to time, and of Sun Xiangyang leading people to dig wells and reclaim the black land. The urge to pick up a pen and write down this story became stronger and stronger.

So here he comes.

"Yes, what's wrong with Editor Lu?"

Sun Xiangyang asked curiously.

Listening to what the other party meant, it didn't sound like he was sending a message to Su Huiwan, but rather that he wanted to ask him for something.

"That's what happened. You also know that I am the editor of a magazine. I like to write some articles when I have nothing to do. I learned about Captain Sun's experience some time ago. To be honest, I admire it very much, so I decided to write this. The impulse to record the story and write it into a book.

But after all, it involves Shuangshuiwan and Captain Sun, so I want to ask for your opinion first. "

Lu Weiguo directly explained his purpose of coming.

"Writing a book?"

Sun Xiangyang was surprised at first, and then looked at Lu Weiguo with a strange expression.

"Editor Lu, what is your pen name?"

"Lu Yao, the road is the way forward, and Yao is the beautiful Yao."

"Lu Yao?"

"Yes, have you read what I wrote?"

Lu Weiguo asked curiously when he saw something was wrong with Sun Xiangyang's expression.

"I'll take a closer look later, but what kind of story does the editor plan to write?"

Sun Xiangyang asked.

For the first time, it felt like the novel was brought into reality.

When he first knew this was Shuangshui Bay, he was still thinking that there was no Sun Shaoan or Xiulian here.

Isn’t it coming right now?

"I haven't thought about the details yet. I just have a general idea at the moment. I mainly want to use Captain Sun as the prototype. On this barren yellow land, the unwillingness, hard work, struggle, and the love between Captain Sun and Teacher Chen are also touching. Ordinary yet great, but I hope to add some artistic processing elements to this aspect to sublimate this feeling."

When it comes to writing, Lu Weiguo's eyes are shining.

"What kind of sublimation method?"

"In my writing, Captain Sun should be a character with a bit of sadness, which happens to be true of your family's situation, while Teacher Chen went from unwillingness to struggle, to falling in love with Captain Sun, and falling in love with this film. Yellow land.

Isn’t this the resumption of the college entrance examination? The time is just right, so in my writing, Teacher Chen should take the college entrance examination. While she was studying outside, Captain Sun was also leading the production team in Shuangshuiwan and working hard.

During this period, there were naturally many stories, especially a pair of lovers who were in love and had to be separated.

On one side is the city and the school, which represents prosperity.

On one side is the countryside, Shuangshui Bay, which represents backwardness.

Both of them faced various temptations and choices, but in the end, the relationship between the two defeated everything. After graduating from college, Mr. Chen gave up a better job and resolutely returned to Shuangshui Bay and became a Teachers, cultivate more talents for Shuangshuiwan.

Captain Sun, on the other hand, led the production team to grow and build Shuangshuiwan into a better and better place.

However, this story is still a little thin, so I plan to add some other things later.

Of course, this is just my current idea, and there are still many shortcomings.

This novel is destined to span ten or even twenty years. It cannot be written in a short time. I plan to spend several years writing this story slowly.

I wonder if Captain Sun can allow me to borrow your and Teacher Chen’s deeds? "

After Lu Weiguo finished speaking, he looked at Sun Xiangyang nervously and expectantly, for fear that the other party would refuse.

Although he could write the novel secretly, after thinking about it, he decided to seek Sun Xiangyang's opinion.

As he said, he plans to spend several years crafting this story, and during this period he will definitely come to Shuangshui Bay to witness the development here.

Get to know Sun Xiangyang, get to know Chen Shuting, and get to know every character here.

The rejection of people with foreign surnames, the disputes between people with the same surname, the story of digging wells, and the story of reclaiming black land.

Only in this way can the characters and stories in his works have flesh and blood and truly touch people's hearts.

After listening to Lu Weiguo's story, Sun Xiangyang did not answer immediately, but was thinking about another thing.

So, Sun Shaoan is gone, and so is Xiulian?

But then, would it still be the ordinary world?

"Have you decided on the name of this novel?"

Sun Xiangyang asked.

"There is an idea, it should be related to the ordinary, maybe called ordinary life, ordinary years, or something else, but this ordinary is an extraordinary story."

Lu Weiguo replied.

"Okay, I support it!"

Suddenly, a voice sounded behind the two of them.

Looking back, if it’s not the old party secretary, then who is it?
  In fact, Sun Xiangyang had already noticed the old party secretary sneaking over just now, but he didn't expect that the other party would immediately get angry.

"Are you Aunt Enkui's nephew? I remember you."

The old party secretary came to Lu Weiguo and said. “Old Party Secretary, your health is getting better and better.”

Lu Weiguo naturally knew the old party secretary.

"It's all thanks to Xiang Yang. Not to mention this, the book you wrote sounds good to me."

The old branch secretary nodded and looked at Lu Weiguo with admiration.

"Old party secretary, in my book, besides Captain Sun, there are also many stories about your family in Shuangshui Bay."

Lu Weiguo said immediately.

"is it?"

The old party secretary's eyes were obviously a little bigger, and he looked like he wanted to talk quickly.

"Yes, in order to highlight Captain Sun's difficulties, there must be hardships and various difficulties. As the branch secretary of Shuangshuiwan, you represent the past, and Captain Sun represents the future and hope of Shuangshuiwan. This is the most important thing. Good conflicts are also the development of the times and the collision of ideas."

Lu Weiguo said his thoughts.

But the old branch secretary heard something was wrong.

"You mean, I, the old branch secretary, represent the bad guys? Suppressing Xiangyang?"

"I'm not a bad person. I know the contribution and dedication of the old party secretary to Shuangshui Bay. In my writing, the old party secretary is a selfless old man who pours all his feelings into Shuangshui Bay and is worthy of respect.

However, the development of the times has made the old party secretary unable to understand the changes in the outside world, and still holds on to the thoughts he once had.

It just so happens that Captain Sun and Teacher Chen have the foresight and vision to seize the opportunity. However, in the eyes of the old party secretary, this kind of opportunity is a kind of restlessness and a kind of beyond control, so for the sake of Shuangshuiwan, you will Subconscious rejection. "

Lu Weiguo said his thoughts.

"Isn't he still a bad guy? I understand, he is a villain, right? Why don't you ask Xiang Yang if I support him? Even if he says that coal can be dug out of Shuangshui Bay, I will carry the shovel myself. dig."

The old branch secretary said with wide eyes.

This is to write him into a book, and he will be seen by who knows how many people in the future. For him, this is equivalent to an opportunity to be famous throughout the ages. How can he not care?

He, Sun Yude, had worked so hard for Shuangshuiwan and emptied his family's fortune. He only hoped that Shuangshuiwan would develop and grow. Would he try to hold back Sun Xiangyang?
  If Sun Xiangyang hadn't lost a bit of prestige now, plus he was young, he would be too conspicuous, which would be detrimental to him.

He had long wished that Sun Xiangyang could be the party secretary.

But the question is, can Sun Xiangyang be able to play rogue and compete for benefits with other production brigades among those in the company?
  So now he can only protect Sun Xiangyang from wind and rain first. After a few years, when he can no longer walk or scold him, he can then give Sun Xiangyang the position of party secretary. I believe that by then, Sun Xiangyang will be able to stand firmly.

"Old Party Secretary, this is a novel. It has a realistic side, but also a fictional side."

Lu Weiguo explained patiently.

"That won't work. If you want to write about me, you have to write it realistically and write it well. I don't want to be stabbed in the spine and said that I, Sun Yude, have no eyesight and have to bear the infamy after I die."

The old party secretary shook his head firmly.

"Old party secretary, don't worry. I guarantee that you will not be infamous after your death. You will definitely have made indelible contributions to the development of Shuangshui Bay. If you die one day, every household in Shuangshui Bay will be hung with white silk. "

Lu Weiguo said affirmatively.

If he wants to talk about other things, he may not be so insistent, but when writing novels and writing stories in his heart, he will never compromise. Otherwise, does the story still count as written by him?

"I'm dead... Bah, I'm alive and well, why should I die? In short, either you don't write about Shuangshui Bay, or you do as I say."

The old party secretary also stiffened his neck and refused to give in.

Seeing that the two were about to fight, Sun Xiangyang quickly started a fight.

"Old Party Secretary, Editor Lu, writing a book is not a matter of a day or two. Let's not be impatient for now and talk about it after a while, okay?
  Maybe by that time, other changes would have taken place in Shuangshui Bay. "

"Captain Sun, are you willing to be the protagonist in my novel?"

Lu Weiguo turned his attention to Sun Xiangyang again.

After all, the other person is the most real material in his writing.

"Editor Lu, after all, your story involves my family member, so I'll ask her opinion later. In addition, I actually have a good story. I'll tell you about it when I get the chance."

Sun Xiangyang did not agree immediately, and when he said that he had a story, he was not just perfunctory. He really planned to tell Lu Weiguo that story to see if he had any ideas.

But to Lu Weiguo's ears, his words sounded like refusal and unwillingness.

I immediately wanted to persuade him again.

But he was stopped by the old branch secretary.

"Editor Lu, you've come all the way, are you tired? I just have something I want to ask you for help with."

"What are you busy with?"

Lu Weiguo asked.

"I heard that Editor Lu also went to college? It happens that several of us here are going to take the college entrance examination and passed the pre-selection, so I would like to ask Editor Lu to help review it. By the way, I will find someone to lead Editor Lu to learn more about Shuangshui Bay. .”

The last time Lu Weiguo came, he brought an outsider with him. On the same day, the old party secretary went to Sun Enkui's house, which was Lu Weiguo's uncle's house, and found out all about the other party's origins.

"It's… okay."

Lu Weiguo hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded in agreement.

After all, if he wanted to write the story of Shuangshuiwan, it would be impossible without the support of the old party secretary.

"Captain Sun, I'll go first, and we'll talk about our matters later."

"it is good."

Sun Xiangyang agreed, and then watched the two people gradually go away.

This sudden arrival of Lu Weiguo, especially his purpose, caught Sun Xiangyang a little off guard. He was already sure that Editor Lu was the one he had been thinking about before.

In the days that followed, Lu Weiguo simply lived in Shuangshui Bay at his sister-in-law's house. He would go to the educated youth center every day to help others review their homework, but the rest of the time he spent wandering around Shuangshui Bay with more money in his hands. This book will hold a person from time to time, like an interview, and learn about Shuangshuiwan from the other person's mouth.

And this was also allowed and greeted by the old branch secretary.

Otherwise, he would have been kicked out long ago if he wasted up other people's efforts.

In this regard, Sun Xiangyang didn't say anything. At this moment, his mind was on the black land in Chagouzi.

Unknowingly, almost a month has passed since people came to support from Shapingba.

The lunar calendar has also entered mid-November from October, and the weather is getting colder and colder. A few snowflakes even fell in the past few nights, making everyone feel a deep chill all of a sudden.

The downside is that the ground starts to freeze and more effort is required.

Fortunately, the first and second production teams have basically finished their work, and they have also joined in the reclamation of Heilong land.

Let the progress speed up again.

"Captain, according to this progress, it will be completed in two or three days. By then, everyone can have a good rest."

Sun Enguang accompanied Sun Xiangyang from beginning to end in Chagouzi. Looking at the black land under his feet that spread into the distance, Sun Enguang also had a strong sense of accomplishment.

However, during this period, everyone was exhausted, especially the people from the third production team and Shapingba, who were the real main force in this reclamation. The first team and the second team just came to finish the work.

It was precisely because he understood how tired and hard everyone was during this period that Sun Enguang said to take a good rest.

"Well, it's just that the land is a little smaller than expected."

Sun Xiangyang had actually known for a long time that this piece of black land was only 72 acres, but at the beginning, everyone just estimated it and did not actually cultivate it all, so it was naturally impossible to get specific data.

But the number initially estimated was nearly a hundred acres, which meant it was at least eighty or ninety acres.

In the past two days, Sun Enguang led people to carefully measure 75 acres.

It is three acres more than the real data displayed by the system.

Sun Xiangyang can naturally understand this. After all, no matter how accurate the manual measurement is, there will be discrepancies, especially since this black land is irregular.

Even if we wait for actual planting, there will be at least more than [-] acres of land.

The reason is that when the black land was reclaimed, two or three meters more were reclaimed to the side. Although these two or three meters were already yellow land, no one cared about it. One more acre of yellow land was still too much.

"It's quite a lot. These 75 acres of black land alone can keep up with the previous 150 acres. There is also the problem of water. I plan to build a ditch all the way from the reservoir to here. When the time comes, water trucks will be used to bring water here. Such a good land cannot rely solely on the weather."

Sun Enguang said about his other plans.

Compared with reclaiming Heilong land, simply building a road in Chagouzi can only be considered a small project.

As for why not just dig deeper and divert water from the reservoir, this idea is simply unrealistic.

Not to mention that the terrain here is much higher than the other ditch, with a drop of at least ten or twenty meters.

The most important thing is that once it rains heavily, the loess from the other ditch will continue to wash down, directly filling the dug ditch, wasting time.

It would be more appropriate to just build a road.

Although the black land here will also face this problem, ditches have been built on both sides, and the ditches will be leveled and ditched to block the backflow of rainwater mixed with loess.

As long as we send people to patrol both sides when it rains and seal them in time, there won't be a problem here.

But on the other side, there is no way to do this, because the ditch is much bigger, deeper, and wider.

"Just pushing water to irrigate the ground is still too slow. I'll look back and see if there are any water veins here. It would be better to create a pool. This will be more convenient. If not, I will try to get a pumping water irrigating machine next year. Machines, after all, the higher the yield of these black lands, the more people can fill their stomachs, and there will be no worries in the future."

Sun Xiangyang thought for a while and said.

"No problem, listen to you."

Sun Enguang nodded happily.

"That's it. After it's finished here in two days, let everyone have a good rest for a few days."

Sun Xiangyang said.

"How many days of rest? Captain, is it possible that there are other things to do next?"

Sun Enguang seemed to hear the hidden meaning and couldn't help but ask.

"There is something else, but I will keep it secret for now. You will know in a few days. It is guaranteed to be good news that will make everyone excited."

Sun Xiangyang sold it out.

The meal must be eaten one bite at a time, and the road must be walked step by step.

I believe that in two days, Heilong's land will be completed. According to the old party secretary's plan to kill the pig to celebrate, he will definitely gain a wave of experience points.

So after this is over, we can make another round of profits by announcing the small coal mine.

"it is good."

Sun Enguang's pupils shrank suddenly, and he seemed to have thought of something, and nodded vigorously.

In this way, two days passed in the blink of an eye, and the reclamation of the Heilong land was finally completed, exceeding the goal that Sun Xiangyang set at the beginning: working for a hundred days, and having enough food for the whole family.

　Chapter One, six thousand words! Sincere enough?

　　Go ahead and write Chapter [-].
