As for Secretary Ma, the slight displeasure in his heart had long disappeared without a trace in the face of Shen Yunshu's absolute strength. He stared at Shen Yunshu with fiery eyes.

Du Shouquan, who was sitting opposite him, was so angry that his teeth were itching. Why hadn't this old bastard given up his evil intentions? Who knew he was hiding a lot of evil intentions somewhere.

Once this is over, he will take his people back immediately.

There was a break for lunch at halftime. The captains present took out two steamed buns made of two-grain flour from their trouser pockets in tacit understanding and drank the boiled water from the enamel pot at hand.

The steamed buns made of two-grain flour looked hard and could kill two passers-by at random, but they ate the buns in their hands with a look of enjoyment.

When Du Shouquan came, he also brought food, two white flour steamed buns and two steamed buns made of two-grain flour. The buns were also stuffed with pickles made by Guo Feng'e.

Two of the white flour buns were made by the old woman at home at Du Shouquan's request, and were specially made for Shen Yunshu.

Shen Yunshu could have returned to Beijing, but not only did she not go back, she also found ways to help their team become prosperous. This is all a favor.

Favors must be repaid.

Before Du Shouquan had time to take the white flour steamed bun out of his cloth pocket, he and Shen Yunshu were taken to a state-owned restaurant by Secretary Ma for dinner.

In Zhou County, lunch is mainly noodles. Secretary Ma ordered three bowls of onion and pork noodles, but thinking that Shen Yunshu had worked hard in teaching today, he gritted his teeth and ordered a plate of braised pork that was so fragrant that it made people drool.

The moment the braised pork was served on the table, the aroma of meat filled the air. Secretary Ma saw that Shen Yunshu was reluctant to move her chopsticks, and thought she was embarrassed, so he took the initiative to put two pieces of fat braised pork in her bowl.

Yes, today's braised pork is very fatty, with almost no lean meat visible. The whole plate of braised pork looks more like stewed fat.

Shen Yunshu really couldn't eat such fatty meat, but if she said she didn't like it, it would seem too fake.

In those days, meat was a rare commodity, and some people could only enjoy it during festivals.

Shen Yunshu couldn't refuse the kindness, so he secretly put some food into Du Shouquan's bowl.

Knowing that she didn't like fatty meat, Du Shouquan silently finished the braised pork in the bowl. While his mouth was full of oil, he did not forget to help Shen Yunshu refuse Secretary Ma's kindness to give her some meat.

After dinner, Shen Yunshu ran next door to buy three bottles of soda. After each of them drank a bottle of soda, she returned the empty bottles.

Three cents each, a total of nine cents refunded.

In the afternoon, there was another boring lecture. Someone in the class suggested that they go to observe the class in person, but Shen Yunshu refused.

The first step in preventing swine fever is to isolate the source of infection. In the pigpen, no one, including the team leader, is allowed to enter, except for Shen Yunshu and the other pig feeders.

This was also what Shen Yunshu talked about in the morning. Seeing that they had all forgotten it, she patiently repeated the morning's content again.

When it was almost dark, Shen Yunshu finished.

Secretary Ma said, "Shen Zhiqing, on behalf of the commune, I would like to express my gratitude to you. If you have any difficulties in the future, please feel free to come to the commune to find me."

"Secretary Ma, you're too polite, but I'd like you to pay more attention to the matter I mentioned to you last time. Our team is really too poor, and now we're thinking about how to make more money to keep the team members well fed and clothed."

"I've already instructed my subordinates to do it. As soon as there's news, I'll have someone notify you."

Shen Yunshu thanked him and then drove Du Shouquan home.

In the moonlit night sky with few stars, the only sounds you can hear are the chirping of cicadas and the croaking of frogs.

Du Shouquan, who was sitting in the back seat of the car, suddenly said, "Shen Zhiqing, am I such a failure as a team leader that I can't even provide the team members with the most basic food and clothing?"

Shen Yunshu noticed that he was a little depressed. Not very good at comforting people, she said, "On the contrary, you are very successful as the team leader. Everyone in our team, including us educated youth from outside, likes you very much."

The key is to be upright and impartial, and to be willing to listen to advice. Just the fact that he can listen to advice has already surpassed many people.

This is also one of the reasons why Shen Yunshu refused to return to Beijing.

Everyone who attended the meeting went back and raised pigs according to the method Shen Yunshu taught in class, and it really gave them good results in the future, but that's a story for later.

Li Jianxing, who was driven away by Shen Yunshu, was called to the commune by Secretary Ma the next day.

However, Li Jianxing was holding his breath. When Secretary Ma conveyed to him what was said at yesterday's meeting, he ignored it and did not take it to heart at all.

However, the result was that he had to watch helplessly as the pigs from other brigades grew fat and strong, and not only were they able to deliver the pigs required by the commune, but they also made a lot of money.

He could only watch and get angry when his teammates complained about him.

Three days later, someone from the commune informed them that a machine for producing vermicelli noodles had been found. Shen Yunshu and Du Shouquan did not dare to delay for a moment and went to the commune with money.

Small and medium-sized machines can produce about 300 kilograms of sweet potato vermicelli per hour, and more than half of the money Shen Yunshu and the others brought was used up.

As soon as Shen Yunshu and Du Shouquan arrived at the team with the ox cart loaded with equipment, they were surrounded by the team members, making it impossible to get out.

Liu Tieshuan said, "Captain, will this piece of iron work? I hope you guys won't get ripped off."

Du Shouquan laughed and scolded, "You don't do your work all day long, but just talk nonsense. The commune took the lead in buying this thing. The commune will cheat anyone but us."

The team members were laughing and joking in a mess, but their eyes were filled with anticipation for a better life in the future.
