"NN," the hoarse man slammed the table, found a cigarette butt that was still burning, lit it, and took a deep drag. "The whole province is short of supplies, it's not just us."
"But the higher-ups are mobilizing supplies, and we must get through these most difficult days!"
"Director, someone is coming from the agricultural reclamation company!"
The director was startled and staggered when he stood up.
It would be troublesome if something went wrong in the area of the agricultural reclamation company, as it is one of Yuncheng's major granaries.
A middle-aged man rushed into the office with wind and rain.
"Director Gao, please allocate some more sacks to our agricultural reclamation company! Otherwise, Dam No. 2 will be in trouble by tonight at the latest."
The director finished the cigarette butt in one gulp, shook his head with a gloomy face.
"No!"
The head of the agricultural reclamation company had a sad face.
"I went to the warehouse before going upstairs, and there's clearly more! If there's a problem with the No. 2 dam, there are more than 30,000 acres of land behind it!"
The director's face twitched violently a few times, but he still shook his head stubbornly.
The last sacks were reserved for the dike south of the city.
Compared to the farmland that hurts him, the hundreds of thousands of people in the city are the most important.
......
There was only one lamp swaying in the wind and rain.
The entire Yuncheng platform was empty. Zhang Hongcheng waited for half an hour, but no one from the agricultural reclamation company came here to wait.
Zhang Hongcheng was a little puzzled.
Isn’t it said that Yuncheng Station has an “insider” from the Agricultural Reclamation Company? Shouldn’t they be unaware that supplies from the Heilongjiang Province Corps are passing through today?
He glanced at the wind and rain outside.
Or is it that those people simply don't have time to pay attention to me?
Because of several years of unpleasantness, Minister Li was unwilling to take the initiative to curry favor with Yuncheng.
Long before Zhang Hongcheng left Lanzhou, he had instructed Zhang Hongcheng to perform on the spot.
Zhang Hongcheng felt that the situation in Yuncheng might be more serious than he knew.
There is no time to lose.
"Comrade, could you please transfer me to the Agricultural Reclamation Company?"
The staff in the station duty room looked at Zhang Hongcheng with confusion.
People don’t even have time to pay attention to you, and you still want to deliver yourself to them?
"Comrade, I think we should contact them next time. I don't think any of them can spare any time right now."
"Do me a favor and come smoke, comrade."
......
“Ding~~~~~.”
The phone on the director's office desk started buzzing frantically.
The bold manager of the agricultural reclamation company and the director were staring at each other.
"How about, Director, you answer the phone first?"
Someone stepped forward to smooth things over.
The director nodded fiercely at the manager of the agricultural reclamation company. If this guy wasn't his old subordinate, he would have taught him a lesson today.
He felt sorry for the food, but the remaining supplies must not be touched.
"Hello, where?"
"Agricultural Reclamation Company?! What's wrong with you?"
The manager of the agricultural reclamation company came over immediately, and everyone's heart was in suspense.
"The Heilongjiang Province Construction Corps is here to pay off their debt? At this time? Are you kidding me?!"
"What did you say!!!"
"Straighten your tongue and speak!"
"Four railway-car sacks?!"
"Offset the money owed to Heilongjiang Province? Fine, anything's fine, just agree to it right now, you idiot!"
"We want to calculate it based on the latest official price of Jin Province? No problem, money is a bastard, just agree to it first!"
"Eh? Don't leave yet, kid!"
The director suddenly grabbed the manager of the agricultural reclamation company who was trying to sneak away.
"You keep one railway sack, and I will deliver the rest here."
Unexpectedly, the manager of the agricultural reclamation company rolled his eyes.
"Why? We exchanged our grain quota for it. If we don't give it to them, according to today's official provincial price, our agricultural reclamation company will owe them money."
The director was furious.
"Come here, some people, keep an eye on this bastard, and send a car to the train station immediately!"
......
Suddenly, countless people appeared in the originally empty train station.
Four train cars full of sacks were quickly loaded onto a truck and taken away.
The manager of the agricultural reclamation company looked very kind, and he hugged him and smiled like a long-lost relative.
He is not as ferocious as my colleagues said before.
"Comrade Xiao Zhang, have you eaten?"
"No, what do you want to eat?"
"Mutton soup with steamed buns? That's easy! It's guaranteed to keep you full!"
