Originally, the Linjiagou Production Brigade was to be headed by Lin Jianguo.
But isn’t Lin Jianguo disabled?
Logically speaking, it would be the deputy captain Lin Shuisheng's turn to replace him.
Lin Shuisheng knew that Lin Huowang would stay in the 323rd Regiment for a few days, so he simply assigned this job to him again.
It just so happened that Lin Huowang also had some ideas of his own, so he agreed.
On behalf of the Linjiagou Production Brigade, I came to attend the commune's annual summary meeting on behalf of the deputy team leader Lin Shuisheng.
Before he even reached the commune compound, Lin Huowang could already hear the festive music playing on the radio from afar.
The commune's radio is not broadcast every day. Today is the New Year's meeting, and many team cadres have come, so naturally there are lights and decorations, firecrackers and radio.
The Red Star Commune was a town-level unit with 24 production brigades under its jurisdiction. The population of each production brigade ranged from 400 to 500 to over a thousand.
Adding the population of more than 5,000 in the town, the entire Red Star Commune has a population of nearly 30,000, which is considered a considerable size.
The brigade cadres who came to the meeting today all walked into the commune compound with their heads held high and smiling.
Because the New Year is coming soon, people come to the commune mainly to collect supplies.
When we take the supplies back to the brigade headquarters, isn't it up to the brigade leaders to decide how to distribute them?
When they saw Lin Huowang following in, they all looked at him in surprise.
"Isn't this the neck Awang from Linjiagou? Why is he here for the meeting? Isn't the captain of Linjiagou Lin Jianguo?"
"That's right! Where is Lin Jianguo? I heard that he and Lin Huowang don't get along well. Why doesn't he come?"
"I was just chatting with someone from the commune, and I heard that a few days ago, Lin Jianguo reported Lin Huowang, saying that he stole guns from the army!"
"Ah! Stealing guns? Or stealing guns from the army? Do you want to be shot? Do you want to die?"
"Isn't it? But guess what happened?
Director Zhao personally arrested Lin Huowang, but over a hundred regiment commanders from the army came and specifically asked to rescue Lin Huowang!"
"That's impossible! Hundreds of group leaders? There is no way there are hundreds of group leaders in our entire Baishan City. What a boast!"
"Really! Half of the people in the commune saw it. Later I heard that it was because Lin Huowang was a great shooter. These regiment leaders came to seek his experience and asked Lin Huowang to teach them how to shoot..."
"Yes, yes, yes! It is said that the army has made an exception and given him the status and treatment of a company-level officer?"
"A company-level officer! That's incredible! Isn't that like our commune director, he can get a salary of more than 100 yuan a month?"
"Oh my goodness! How can this be? Isn't this kid only 18 years old? And he's already a company commander?"
"But even if he is at the company level, the one who should come to the meeting in Linjiagou should be Lin Jianguo! At the very least, it should be the deputy captain Lin Shuisheng. Why did they send him here?"
…
Many of these production team leaders who came from the countryside had no idea what had happened a few days ago.
Therefore, when Lin Huowang appeared, the rumors about him quickly spread among these team leaders.
Everyone was amazed at Lin Huowang's good luck. With his shooting skills, he was able to be treated as a company-level officer.
Like them, the commune director Zhao Tiechui immediately frowned when he saw Lin Huowang appear.
He walked up to Lin Huowang and asked, "Lin Huowang! Why are you here at the commune? This is a meeting of the production team leaders to distribute New Year's supplies to the production teams. It has nothing to do with you."
Lin Huowang calmly took out a certificate that Lin Shuisheng had left him when he left, which was stamped with the seal of the Linjiagou Production Team.
The certificate stated that the captain and deputy captain of Linjiagou were unable to come due to some matters, so they sent Lin Huowang as a representative to attend the meeting and receive supplies.
After reading the proof, Zhao Tiechui had nothing to say and had to let Lin Huowang in.
When the team leaders saw that Lin Huowang actually entered the public meeting hall, they were all amazed.
"Director Zhao has been humiliated by Lin Huowang twice in a row. Does this count as the third time?"
"This Lin Huowang is really a smart kid! He can always turn danger into safety. I was at the last public trial and I was really worried for him!"
"Yes, yes, yes! I heard that Mr. Zhao was shot on the spot? Tsk tsk! If Lin Huowang wasn't smart enough at the time, he would have been shot."
…
The captains of the twenty-four production brigades were all present, and Zhao Tiechui, director of the Red Star Commune, patted the table and prepared to start his speech at the meeting.
He glanced at the audience, took out the speech he had written in advance, and began to speak confidently:
"Welcome to the New Year. Our Red Star Commune has contributed a lot to the construction of a new socialist China over the past year.
Last year, our commune paid a total of 10% more public grain to the state than the quota given to us, and was commended by Baishan County.
At the end of the year, when I was attending a meeting in the county, the county magistrate specifically praised our Red Star Commune by name and awarded our Red Star Commune the mobile red flag of the county's outstanding commune.
It can be said that the successful and satisfactory completion of the tasks assigned to us by the state by our commune is closely related to the efforts and contributions of all production brigades.
In the new year, we must strive to work harder and achieve 120% of the quota set by the state..."
The speech from above was very passionate, but the production team leaders who were listening to it below all looked unhappy.
Although the commune received the honor, every one of them knew it in their hearts.
