Chapter 314 Captain Zhou, we are going to kill a pig tonight!
After Su Wenchen got back into the car.
There were only three hand tractors left on the branch canal to pump water. Captain Zhou of the hand tractor factory still led people to help them drive the vehicles towards the site.
A field office.
The warm rays of the early spring sun shine on the mottled walls of the adobe house, giving the ochre-colored walls a layer of golden glow. This was the field headquarters compound that was transformed from the original commune compound.
Now it has completely changed.
In the courtyard, on the west side are rows of low-rise houses, all of which have now had their signs changed.
The green paint on the painted wooden door of the bungalow had already peeled off for the most part.
Only new wooden signs such as "Production Scheduling Department", "Comprehensive Service Department", and "Logistics Management Department" will be repainted.
During this period, cadres in Zhongshan suits occasionally trotted in and out, with rolled-up drawings tucked under their arms. From the fresh mud spots on their trouser legs, it can be seen that they were probably drawings related to canal digging.
In the courtyard, a number of huge thatched sheds were built on the east side. Except for the first shed, there was a row of 28-inch bicycles tied under it.
The other straw sheds were empty, but from the tire tracks on the ground, it could be seen that this was where the maintenance department stored agricultural machinery.
The only brick building on the north side is both a conference room and an auditorium. The founding ceremony of the Su Wenchen branch was held here!
In the center of the field, there stands a somewhat rotten wooden flagpole. The red flag on the top, which has faded a little, still flutters firmly in the cold wind of early spring.
Below the flagpole, on the cement flagpole, a group of half-grown children were squatting and playing with stones in their hands.
moment.
Accompanied by the "thump thump" sound of the tractor.
The children all raised their heads at the same time, and the next moment, as if they had made an appointment, they happily ran towards the south gate.
And while running, he shouted excitedly.
"The tractor is back!"
"The tractor is back!"
At that moment, many people came out of the offices in the entire field compound with confusion.
Why would the pioneering team suddenly come back in the middle of the day?
Could it be that they can’t wait for the logistics department to deliver meals to them?
After all, the distance to be reclaimed at this time is a bit far, so for lunch, the site office will steam the steamed buns and fry the dishes, and then send someone to deliver them to the canal digging team and the land reclamation team.
In particular, Ren Dachuan, who was in charge of the logistics management department, frowned even more.
Walk directly towards the cafeteria on the south side.
"Old Yang! Old Yang!"
"Isn't your cafeteria ready yet? Why are the pioneering team back?"
After hearing Ren Dachuan's words, a master chef wearing sleeves and an apron walked out of the cafeteria.
"Director Ren! Our meal delivery team set out long ago, and now they're not just there yet! Judging by the time, they should have finished eating and started working by now!"
Hearing that the problem was not caused by their logistics department, he instantly felt relieved.
As the former commune director, he never caught up with Yang Zhenye, the commune secretary.
Now they are finally on the same starting line.
Especially at this critical time when the director is about to come back, if it is ultimately due to problems in their logistics department that cause the pioneering team to be delayed.
That will undoubtedly affect his status in the eyes of the leader.
After all, if he can't even manage the logistics of delivering meals, then naturally he can forget about other important tasks.
But thinking of this, he also realized something.
Immediately run towards the south gate.
As soon as I arrived at the gate, I saw a familiar jeep driving in front of me.
Looking at the vehicle that was about to come, he immediately shouted to the security personnel who were still in a daze.
"What are you standing there for? Don't you have any good eyesight? That's the director coming back. Don't you recognize the jeep in the field?"
"Open the door quickly!"
As he spoke, he quickly stepped forward, pulled out the latch of the gate, and together with the security staff, slowly pushed open the large iron gate for cars.
After the leading jeep drove in.
Following closely behind were a number of hand tractors, which slowly drove into the compound of the site. In an instant, the parking lot on the east side was full.
Especially after the last truck carrying pigs drove in.
For a moment, the attention of almost everyone in the field was drawn to it.
Especially the group of little kids, they were running around the pig cart excitedly, and kept shouting excitedly at the big black pig that was grunting on it.
"Big black pig!"
"Big black pig!"
“Lululu!”
That is, most of the people in the field went to open up wasteland and dig canals.
Those who remain now are either too old or too young, and finally the only ones left are those who hold positions in the field office.
Otherwise, it would probably be surrounded by people immediately.
After Su Wenchen opened the car door and got out, Ren Dachuan immediately jogged over.
"Director, you're back!"
Su Wenchen nodded and spoke directly to Ren Dachuan.
"Comrade Dachuan, you've arrived just in time. Please quickly get your logistics staff to take care of these fifteen pigs."
"Then have someone pick out five pigs that are in poor spirits. After they are slaughtered, have the canteen cook all of them in the evening."
After saying this and thinking for a while, Su Wenchen interrupted again.
"Forget it, let's just kill ten of them!"
"I think these pigs weigh at most 160 to 170 kilograms. If we kill five of them, I don't think it will be enough to feed the 8,000 people in our farm!"
Su Wenchen had no choice. There were too many people at the branch site, and he couldn't just give the meat to the canal digging team and let the land reclamation team watch.
So we can only kill a few more, so that at least each person can get about one or two pounds of meat.
Coupled with a large number of side dishes, it is considered a relatively hearty meal here.
At that time, there were no employees, and people really only hoped to fill their stomachs by eating meat. Now, even the biggest factories would not dare to have this idea.
At this time, basically, eating two pieces of meat and some meaty side dishes is already a good delicacy for most people.
This is especially true in the branch where there is less meat.
After hearing what Su Wenchen said, Ren Dachuan immediately agreed excitedly.
"No problem, Director!"
"I'll settle these pigs right away. There's a former pigpen behind the north auditorium."
"Later, because there was nothing to feed the pigs, it gradually became deserted. There's definitely no problem settling it down for a short period of time."
Su Wenchen nodded.
"Okay, then you can take the driver over there!"
"Oh, they're volunteering to help bring it here. When the time comes, go to the supply and marketing cooperative at the door and buy a pack of cigarettes or something. Don't make them go there. Just submit the bill to the finance department for reimbursement in the evening."
Ren Dachuan immediately understood what Su Wenchen meant.
He patted his chest and said.
"Director, I understand. Leave this to me!"
As he said this, he waved his hand towards the pig cart.
"Driver, this way!"
"I'll take you to the backyard to unload the pig!"
When Ren Dachuan drove the pig-carrying cart to the back, Captain Zhou and other workers from the handcart factory also took their bicycles off the cart.
He pushed the cart up to Su Wenchen and said goodbye.
"Director Su, the car has arrived for you. Our mission is complete, so we'll be heading back now."
Su Wenchen smiled and tried to persuade the other party to stay.
"Captain Zhou, we have to kill a pig tonight!"
"Let's stay here and have a meal tonight!"
Hearing this, some of the younger people around them obviously couldn't control themselves, their throats rolled subconsciously, and some even couldn't help licking their lips.
When Captain Zhou saw this, he immediately glared at the other person.
"Director Su, we'd better not stay. Otherwise, it will be too late to go back, and we won't be able to explain to the factory!"
As soon as Su Wenchen heard the other party's tone, he knew that the other party wanted to stay but was worried about being blamed by the factory.
So he just waved his hand.
"It's okay. I'll have someone call your factory tonight and tell them you're helping the canal digging team on our farm pump out water and have been delayed."
"Besides, this is the truth. Your factory will definitely not blame you for this!"
After Su Wenchen gave this opportunity, the other party was instantly moved.
Who wouldn’t be tempted to eat meat at this time!
And he just heard it, killing ten pigs at once!
That’s ten pigs!
Their hand-held factory has never been so wealthy!
The most important thing is that the other party even found a way out for them, and it was a real excuse.
They did help the Blue Water Farm canal digging team pump water, and it did delay their work a bit, so there was absolutely no act of deceiving the factory.
Looking at the expectant eyes of his brothers, Captain Zhou had no choice but to speak.
"Since Director Su wants to stay, it would be disrespectful for us to refuse."
"In this case, we can't eat your meal for free. Director, you can ask the maintenance team to come over this afternoon when you have some free time."
"We will simply teach your maintenance team some easy-to-learn methods of operating this type of tractor, as well as some simple methods of judging and repairing these hand tractors."
"That way if there are any minor problems in the future, you can try to repair them yourself first."
Obviously, he knew that he couldn't eat the pork from Lanshui Farm for free, and helping them drive the tractor over was, after all, a task assigned by the factory.
Seeing that the other party was so knowledgeable, Su Wenchen's face was instantly filled with smiles, because he had just tried to persuade the other party to teach him some driving skills.
However, the other party understood the ways of the world better than he had imagined. Not only did he save his time, but he was also willing to take the initiative to teach them some maintenance methods.
So he immediately shouted to Zhao Weiguo.
"Old Zhao, did you hear that?"
"Treat Captain Zhou well. It's noon now, so take Captain Zhou to the cafeteria to fill his stomach first."
"Tell everyone in your maintenance team to be alert this afternoon. Tell them that if they miss this opportunity, they won't be able to find it again."
Zhao Weiguo immediately responded with a smile.
"Director, don't worry. If any kid dares not study hard, I'll beat them with my belt."
"Captain Zhou, let's go to the cafeteria and have something to eat. I'll have someone call back most of the maintenance team members who are at the land reclamation team."
Hearing what Zhao Weiguo said, he waved his hand.
"No need. Since everyone is with the pioneering team, we can just go there directly. They will learn faster through actual combat operations."
When Zhao Weiguo heard this, the smile on his face widened.
"Okay then, I'll trouble you, Brother Zhou. I'll take you to the cafeteria right away."
After saying that, he turned and looked at Su Wenchen.
"By the way, Director, aren't you going to eat?"
Su Wenchen touched his belly.
"You guys go first!"
"Just ask the canteen to leave me some steamed bread. I'm not sure if I don't go to the farm first."
From what Cao Jiwen said, he felt that many of the rabbit breeds introduced to the farm seemed to have problems.
If he didn't go and take a look, Su Wenchen would indeed feel uneasy.
After hearing what Su Wenchen said, Zhao Weiguo didn't say anything more.
"Okay, Director, we'll be leaving first!"
"Come on, Brother Zhou, let's go to the cafeteria!"
I saw Zhao Weiguo leading the way in front.
The other party immediately followed and spoke to the brothers around him as he walked.
"Brothers, we can't eat other people's meat for free. Show your skills this afternoon."
"Captain, don't worry. Don't you know our brothers? I promise to teach them to be as proficient as experienced tractor drivers with more than five years of experience."
Su Wenchen also smiled when he heard this.
He didn't really expect that someone could become as skilled as a five-year veteran in just one afternoon.
For him, the only thing he needs to do in the maintenance team is not to act like a rookie who is always at a loss.
After all, the branch venue is not like the main venue, where there is a foundation where old players can guide new players.
Except for Zhao Weiguo, the rest of the maintenance team are all rookies, which is why Su Wenchen wants them to stay and teach him.
Now that some people have stayed, how much the maintenance team members can learn depends on whether the people Zhao Weiguo has transferred are smart enough.
But he won't interfere in this matter anymore.
Because his future thoughts will definitely shift to the meat rabbit farm!
