Reborn during the early days of China’s reform and opening, the narrator finds himself in the 1980s countryside. In this setting, the past is still a cold reference, yet it is also a fresh start....
The last batch of supplies bound for Harbin was loaded and shipped.
This was the last batch of supplies, originally just tents. Wanfeng later added 2,000 life jackets and custom-made 100 rubber boats, all of which were sent over.
Jiang Ming also bought all the mineral water from Harbin.
After the supplies were shipped, Wan Feng asked Zhou Liming to send two people from the public relations department to Harbin.
Their task is to hand over these supplies to the Harbin Flood Control Headquarters.
There are still twenty days before the last flood here. These supplies should be sent there in advance for the water conservancy department to dispatch, so as to avoid being in a hurry when the flood really hits.
He also asked the people sent to tell the flood control headquarters that if the Songhua River and Nenjiang River flooded, it would definitely happen between August 14th and 16th, and asked them to be mentally prepared.
If the other party asks how you know it so accurately, tell them that it was calculated by a master of Yixue.
There is really no reason, so I can only let the fortune teller take the blame.
After worrying about the Longjiang River, we have to worry about the Inna River.
The end of July and the beginning of August is the authentic rainy season in southern Liaoning. From the 18th to the 25th of this month, the sky has not been clear for more than a week, and moderate rain, heavy rain and rainstorms fall in shifts every day.
I don’t know how much water is stored in the clouds in the sky?
The Inna River, which rose and receded last month, rose again, and its water level was even greater than last month.
Wan Feng, wearing a raincoat, and the main cadres of Jiangwei Industrial Zone were standing on the river bank embankment, looking at the rushing river under their feet, feeling uneasy.
No one has ever experienced such a big flood. The older generation said that there was a big flood in the 1950s, but the people standing on the dam now were born at that time and are probably just children. No one knows what the flood in the 1950s was like.
The water in front of them was the largest water they had ever seen.
In 1998 of his previous life, Wan Feng had already lived in Wulu Town. The terrain of Wulu Town was very high, and it was impossible to know what the water in the Inna River was like at that time.
At present, the water line of the Inna River is only one meter away from the top of the dam, which is already level with the warning water level.
It was still raining heavily, and Wan Feng felt that his raincoat seemed to be soaked through, and the raincoat stuck to the skin of his arms, which was very uncomfortable.
If it rains as heavily as it does now in the next few days, the possibility of the dam collapsing will be very high.
"Captain Shen! Captain Luan! Tell everyone living in the low-lying areas behind the mountain and in the depression to evacuate. Move all valuables out, move all furniture onto the kang, and then seal up the doors and windows. Set up tents on higher ground for a few days. Those living in the higher ground behind the mountain should also build a temporary dam in their lower areas. We're worried about the dam collapsing. If it does, it might be too late to move."
The dam body is made of reinforced concrete and cannot be washed away by any amount of water, but there is nothing we can do if the roof collapses.
Although the water level will not be too high after the roof collapses, people living in low-lying areas will still be flooded, so it is better to prepare early.
The height of this dam is still not enough. After the flood this year, it needs to be raised by another meter.
When Wan Feng returned home from the dam, he unexpectedly found that his sister Wan Fang had returned.
Wan Fang enrolled in a normal school three years ago and finally graduated this year.
She should have gone home a long time ago, but she went to her classmate Dongdan's house to play and has been playing there until now.
In Wan Feng's mind, the Normal College was not considered a serious university, but he was still very happy that his sister was able to be admitted to the Normal College.
In her previous life, this girl didn't even go to middle school. She graduated from the fifth grade of elementary school and said she didn't want to continue her studies.
At least in this life I have attended a normal school and can be a role model for others.
But even though he was ready to be a role model, his money-grubbing nature remained unchanged. The first thing he said when he saw Wan Feng was, "Brother! Give me some money!"
Wan Feng took off his raincoat and hung it on the hook by the door. He saw Zhang Xuan holding the child and watching Luan Feng and her mother cook.
"Don't you know how to help your sister-in-law soothe the child and let her cook? As if I can let you down if you soothe the child."
"Come on! Your princess might not get along with me. She'll cry if I hug her! Give me the money!"
"What money?"
"Ah! You're trying to shirk your responsibility! You said you'd give me one million when I graduated from college."
"Haha! Is this normal school considered a university? It seems like the diplomas are all from technical secondary schools, right?"
"I don't care! I worked so hard to graduate anyway, and if you don't pay me, I'm not going to let you go."
"Huh? So you studied so hard just to get this million dollars after graduation?"
"Why?"
"Don't you have any lofty ideals?"
“Without money, there is no ideal.”
"Your thinking is wrong. Doesn't that make you an egoist? How did you learn the three old articles?"
"What's the point of talking about ideals when you're hungry? Give me the money."
"Don't rush to ask for the money. I won't give you a cent. First, tell me where it was allocated."
"I don't want to be assigned back to Jiangwei, because I'm close to you and I can ask for money anytime if I run out of money."
Wan Feng was tired because his sister was thinking about this all day long.
"Aren't you afraid that your sister-in-law will beat you?"
"If they beat me, I'll ask them for it."
Can this be a teacher?
"How's your study going? You're not the last one to graduate, are you?"
"What are you talking about! I graduated in the top three, and Beiliao Normal University was planning to let me stay on campus. But when I found out it was only 500 or 600 yuan a month, I ran back."
It is certain that this girl will be good at making a living in the future, but of course no one knows which unfortunate man will fall into her hands.
I guess you can't keep a single cent of your salary, you can squeeze it out like water.
"Then go teach at Jiangwei School. Since you're a top student, you can lead the class. I'll arrange for a child to be in your class and teach him well."
"Extra money?"
"How about giving you 500,000 a year?"
"One million!" Wan Fang asked for a huge sum of money. Her brother and sister-in-law had plenty of money anyway.
"I'm scared of you. One million is one million."
"Give me the one million you owe me first."
Wan Feng took out a check and signed a check for two million and threw it to Wan Fang: "Grandet!"
Wan Fang, who has money, doesn't care about Grandet or anything like that. She is as happy as a husky holding the check.
Wan Fang had no intention of opening a factory. She thought being a teacher was also a good idea. She could earn about 18,000 yuan a year, and Wan Feng would give her a little extra. When she got married, he would give her another 18,000 yuan, and that would be how her life would be.
Wan Fang's trajectory has been confirmed, and the next step is Wan Jun.
Wan Jun sent me a letter two days ago, which included a photo of a beautiful girl in military uniform.
No need to ask, she is his fiancée. It seems that Zhu Guoxiong introduced her to him.
Wan Jun is 26 years old this year. After graduating from the military academy, he is now the company commander of a certain company. It is time for him to get married.
I wonder if the wedding should be held in the local area or in the army?
