What Qiao Qingqing handed her was naturally the tricycle ticket.
Shi Meiyun said: "Just give this directly to the captain..."
"How can it be the same? You represent our entire family, so of course you have to hand it over to the captain."
Shi Meiyun had no choice but to turn around and say to the team leader, "Team leader, before we left, I often heard you talking about buying a tricycle. After two and a half years since we went back, Zhenfeng and the others have not been able to find you. When we said we were going to come back this year, Zhenfeng and Ah Heng happened to be asking about the tricycle tickets..."
When hearing this, Zhou Aiguo was so moved that he almost cried. He vaguely guessed what this generous gift that the Lu family prepared for the team was, but he didn't dare to believe it.
After all, it’s too expensive!
"This tricycle ticket is a gift from my family to the brigade. I hope it can help the brigade develop better."
As she spoke, Shi Meiyun carefully placed the tricycle ticket into the captain's trembling hands.
Zhou Aiguo held the thin ticket in both hands, his lips trembling with excitement and tears in his eyes.
He turned slowly and raised his hand high to the people who were craning their necks to look at the tricycle ticket in his hand.
"Fellow villagers, this is the precious gift the Lu family gave us! A tricycle ticket!"
As soon as the words fell, the crowd cheered!
The villagers were equally excited. Tricycles were so valuable and tickets were in short supply, but they did not expect that the Lu family would give them such a big surprise this time.
"Let us thank the Lu family! Thank you Ms. Shi! Thank you Zhiqing Qiao!"
"Thank you, Lu family! Thank you, Ms. Shi! Thank you, Qiao Zhiqing!"
People were shouting and clapping enthusiastically. This atmosphere infected Shi Meijun and her mood became excited.
From then on, the villagers of Hongsheng Brigade worshipped them like Bodhisattvas!
Every day someone sends them things, food, vegetables, and seafood!
Even the water was carried by the villagers in turns every day.
Such enthusiastic attitude gradually made Shi Meiyun feel overwhelmed, because she had been used to being cautious in the past ten years, and was afraid that always taking things from the villagers would create a bad impression.
But everyone, including the team leader and Feng Xiumei, assured her that there would be no such thing.
"Whoever dares to gossip will be punished by us!"
"Besides, things are different now. Even Liao Yuren's Revolutionary Committee doesn't dare to criticize anyone anymore. He has to behave himself now!"
Even Qiao Qingqing comforted her, which made her gradually relax.
When life in the brigade returned to normal, Qiao Qingqing went to the city to do business with Sun Zhong.
This time when I came to the county town again, I obviously found that there were more street vendors.
After meeting Sun Zhong and his wife, Qiao Qingqing also learned about the changes in the county from them.
First, the black market in the county town disappeared - because now there are not many people supervising people setting up stalls, so the black market naturally evolved into an ordinary "market".
Occasionally, someone would come to patrol, but as long as you weren't reselling tickets, they usually didn't do much about it, other than to prevent you from occupying space on the street.
"Now Xiaoliu has also set up a stall to repair shoes for people. He can earn about ten yuan a day, which is pretty good."
Sun Zhong said with a smile.
Qiao Qingqing was not surprised at all. Although this was a small county town, perhaps because it was on the seaside, the thinking of the county leaders was more "open" than that of the leaders of inland cities.
As long as the local government does not arrest the vendors, the transition from a planned economy to a market economy will be extremely fast.
