Chapter 272 Director Han's Itchy Spot



Zhang Hongcheng was only wearing a sweater and was still steaming.

He rubbed his waist and couldn't help but sigh in his heart that he had not been exercising enough during his time in Shanghai.

Digging snow and rescuing people from the barracks after a heavy snowfall is no longer as easy as it used to be.

Back then, he could dig out the children from two barracks in one breath without taking a breath, but now he couldn't even dig out the children from one barracks and he felt like he couldn't hold on any longer.

It would be better if Wangcai and Lai Fu, as well as their dogs and grandchildren, were running hard in the snow beside him.

Fortunately, the two big guys, Jiao Dinghui and Tu Hongbing, came out from the snow, picked up shovels and started working.

As soon as the two-meter-thick snow at the door was shoveled away, several female educated youth from the south rushed out with a scream, and then ran back with a scream.

It’s so cold outside!

Sure enough, there was a reason why Xia Juan asked them to wrap themselves in three or four layers of warm clothes.

The educated youth who had just arrived in the Northeast from the South were full of energy and clamored to build a Great Wall of Ice and Snow with the snow in the yard.

Anyway, it's the hibernation season and there's nothing to do.

Zhang Hongcheng knew that the reason they dared to act so recklessly was because there was no wind in the wetland.

As long as there is a slight breeze, no matter how enthusiastic they are, it will be extinguished in minutes.

Several key members were assigned to keep an eye on everyone, while Zhang Hongcheng and several other leaders hid in a small conference room to count the details of the supplies.

Through Minister Li's connections and arrangements, the supplies Zhang Hongcheng brought from Shanghai were enough for them to eat and drink for more than a year without worrying.

So what Zhang Hongzhe is most concerned about now is how much wood the Red Flag Platoon has brought from the forest farm.

This is the most important thing for them to survive this winter.

"Don't worry about that," Wang Fengzhi smiled narrowed his eyes, "except for the big logs at the forest farm, we've moved all the other small logs that can be moved."

"Even if we all burn it non-stop for 24 hours," Xia Juan said, "it won't be a problem until early summer!"

"Okay," Zhang Hongcheng nodded, pointing to the small conference room and the farm office next door. "When the snow melts, the first thing we need to do is connect these two rooms and turn them into one large classroom."

Seeing everyone's stunned expressions, Zhang Hongcheng smiled mysteriously.

"Our Director Han has already said that the focus of our farm's work for the first six months is not on increasing production, but on strengthening the ideological and moral education of the educated youth."

Wang Fengzhi and Jiao Dinghui looked at each other in surprise.

"Director, although we don't have any production targets to submit next year, if we really can't plant crops next year, what will we eat next year?"

"Hehehehe," Zhang Hongcheng saw them scratching their heads anxiously, but he deliberately kept it to himself, "Keep it a secret!"

On the third day after returning to the wetland, Zhang Hongcheng rode a sled to the breeding station.

Unfortunately, Deputy Director Jian had been transferred back to his hometown a year ago, so Zhang Hongcheng could only come to the headquarters of the 39th Regiment, which is also the headquarters of Yunshan Farm, with regret.

The director, Li Guangjin, seemed to have aged a lot and no longer had the same optimistic spirit as before.

But he was still very happy about Zhang Hongcheng's arrival and invited Zhang Hongcheng to have a drink at his home.

As they drank to their heart's content, the two of them talked about more open topics.

It turned out that after the restructuring, the old team leader Li Guangjin was not used to working in a purely civil unit.

He has been thinking about using his connections to transfer back to the army recently.

"The farm's armed forces have been reduced by four-fifths," Li Guangjin said, taking another sip of his wine, a look of worry on his face. "We've truly withdrawn from our border defense positions. The few guns and ammunition we have are only enough to deal with wild boars and bears."

"Why!"

Li Guangjin shook his head and sighed for a long time.

Zhang Hongcheng heard Li Guangjin's inner struggle from his words.

Li Guangjin was not used to work that was not militarized at all. He even dreamed about his days as a soldier.

It just so happened that the restructuring of the Construction Corps had not been completed yet, and he had already used his connections, so there was a high probability that he would be transferred to the border defense.

But deep down, he was reluctant to leave Yunshan Farm, which he and Lao Guo had run for so many years.

This is Li Guangjin's own heart knot, and Zhang Hongcheng can't help.

I could only accompany him to get drunk for once.

The next day, after sobering up, Li Guangjin immediately turned against Zhang Hongcheng and kicked him hard on the butt, telling him to get out with the supplies he had secretly prepared for the Hongqi Wetland Farm.

The person in charge of driving was also an old acquaintance, the adopted son's father-in-law - Lao He.

This guy was completely controlled by Xiao Qin, and he actually gave up his job in Jixi and applied to be transferred to Yunshan Farm to be a driver.

Old He sighed and complained to Zhang Hongcheng while driving.

"Last year, my family had already found a job for Xiao Qin in Jixi."

"But this woman refused to agree and insisted that I come over!"

Old He let Zhang Hongsheng look at the back of his neck in a somewhat depressed manner.

"Look at how she tickled me. I can't do anything about it, brother!"

"Xiao Zhang," Lao He said earnestly, "I heard you're getting married too. Take care, be careful, and treasure yourself!!!"

Lao He didn't notice that Zhang Hongcheng's expression was a little strange.

So he turned around and taught Zhang Hongcheng a series of skills on how a man should ask his wife for leave after marriage and hide his private money.

In Lao He's opinion, Zhang Hongcheng would not betray himself in front of Xiao Qin.

But what he never expected was that his complaints would bring trouble to Lao Lao He in another time and space.
