The next day, the team leader went to the county to negotiate with the county governor, asking the county to deal with the land issue.
He has good reasons too.
"Look, our food factory needs to expand. The space is too small. This is a big deal for exporting and earning foreign exchange!"
That’s not a big deal. The entire Dutch province’s foreign exchange depends heavily on the food factory in Wangjia Village.
"Okay, I'll take care of this!"
The food factory is currently in the off-season. The factory certainly needs to expand. Once the factory is built there, the existing food factory space can be used as dormitories.
"Our brigade won't be wasting time. We can then allocate two jobs to Caijia Village! Or..."
The county magistrate waved his hand and said, "We don't need anything to earn foreign exchange for the country! The overall interests of the country are the most important!"
The captain blinked and said, "Okay!"
Now that the homestead is settled, the next thing is the teacher.
"County Magistrate, when will your friend arrive?"
The county magistrate laughed and said, "As long as you are willing to accept it, we can come here soon after the formalities are completed."
"Okay! Then we'll wait. Don't worry, our team..."
The county chief patted the captain on the shoulder and said, "I'm relieved! Absolutely relieved! Otherwise, I wouldn't have suggested that he come to your brigade."
The county magistrate changed the subject: "But I have to trouble you with one thing. There is an elderly widower in our county. His two sons and one daughter all died in battle during the anti-Japanese war."
The captain nodded: "Hero family!"
"The old man in this family passed away a few years ago, and only the old lady is left."
The county magistrate sighed. "But this old lady has a questionable background. Her father was once a high-ranking official in a certain party. Now people are using this to make a fuss, and she's being tortured every day to the point of being worse than death. I was wondering if there's a way to send her to your brigade? I promise to do it quietly, without anyone knowing."
"How do we solve the food problem?"
When we got to the countryside, the grain issue was no longer relevant, but the old lady had no food to eat.
It’s okay if there’s only one old lady, but if there are too many, we won’t be able to handle it!
"I will arrange for someone to transfer her food supply from the original street office, and I will deliver the food to you every month."
"That's fine. I'm fine, and our team should be fine too."
The county chief breathed a sigh of relief and reached out to shake the captain's hand tightly.
"Comrade Wang, thank you so much! You don't know... it's not easy for this martyr's family!"
The captain had been doing farm work all year long, so his hands were quite strong, but the county magistrate's hands were even stronger. He was indeed a military veteran.
"It's our duty! Everything is so crazy right now! Our team is honored to be able to contribute!"
The captain added, "County Governor, you should be careful too!"
The county magistrate sneered, "I'm not afraid of these monsters. I came from a poor peasant family, fought against the Japanese invaders and fought in many battles. I've shed blood for this country! I consider myself upright and clean. If you have any questions, feel free to ask!"
When he first arrived here, he was actually a bit disheartened. The bureaucracy was full of intrigue and his straightforward character had offended his superiors. It was only through the efforts of an old friend that he was transferred to Xinjin County.
After arriving, my old friend had only one request, which was to ensure that everything was safe in Wangjia Village!
But now, seeing these martyrs' families being tortured like this, the blood in his bones was aroused, and he could no longer turn a blind eye.
As a veteran, he couldn't bear to see the families of martyrs having a bad life.
Thinking back to the battlefield, how many lives had been lost before his eyes. He had saved his comrades many times, and had also been saved by them many times.
He still remembers all his comrades who died on the battlefield, and what he was most worried about before his death was his family!
Those who sacrificed their lives for the future of the country would be heartbroken if they knew that their loved ones were treated like this!
Captain Wang achieved his wish and happily rode his bicycle back to Wangjia Village.
Zhoujia Village.
"Sister, tell me what you think. Even though you've been dating him for so long, even if it doesn't work out, you can still find someone suitable. If you don't want to, just say so!"
Zhou Pengcheng wiped the sweat from his forehead and said to Zhou Xinghong.
Zhou Xinghong gathered the firewood her brother had chopped and piled it in the corner.
The two have been dating for several years, and it is impossible to say that there is no love between them.
"Sister, please don't let yourself suffer because of me. I can earn work points now and support myself! Please don't let yourself suffer for me and my sister anymore."
"If you still have feelings for Brother Jianguo, give him another chance!"
"I'll talk to them for you tomorrow. If we can reconcile, then reconcile. If we can't, forget it!"
"After I finish chopping firewood, I'll go up the mountain to dig herbs. You can rest today. Don't work too hard in the future. I go to class in the morning and evening, so you can leave your work for me when you come back!"
"Don't worry too much about my little sister. Don't worry if she can't become a teacher after graduation. Even if she comes back, we can support her. I'm here, so don't worry anymore! Leave everything to me!"
Zhou Xinghong felt warm in her heart, thinking that it was not in vain that she raised this younger brother.
After chopping wood, Zhou Pengcheng took Zhou Xinghong's usual hoe and basket and headed up the mountain to dig herbs. He'd often gone up the mountain with Zhou Xinghong during his vacations. Now, they were on the familiar path to Daqing Mountain.
Rare herbs are usually found deep in the mountains. Zhou Pengcheng did not linger at the foot of the mountain and headed straight for the mountains.
Deep in the mountains, two young men were wandering through the jungle.
"Where exactly are those red fruits? Aren't they on the mountain?" the short man asked doubtfully. They had run halfway up the mountain, but hadn't found any of those fruits.
"Impossible! The entire Xinjin County relies on this mountain. How else can such a miraculous fruit grow? It must be in this mountain. Let's look for it carefully. If we can't find it today, we'll come back tomorrow. I don't believe it!" the tall man said fiercely, "It must be in this mountain! We must find it no matter what!"
The short man could only continue searching.
A tiny head popped out of the tree.
"Ouch!" The short man covered the back of his head. "What is that?"
A huge chestnut rolled around at his feet. The short man picked it up and looked around, but there was no chestnut tree nearby.
"Where did these chestnuts come from?" he muttered, biting it open with a crunch and digging out the flesh to eat.
"Well, it's delicious, big and sweet. This Daqingshan is really special."
Before he finished speaking, a rain of chestnuts fell from the sky.
"Ouch, ouch, ouch, ouch, who is it? How dare you try to trick me..."
The two men ran with their heads covered, but the chestnut rain was very precise, following them wherever they ran.
"Boss, what is this thing? Why is it chasing us and beating us?"
The short man was hit on the forehead by a huge chestnut, leaving a bump.
"Go down the mountain first!"
The two of them ran down the mountain in a panic.
Zhou Pengcheng saw two people rushing down the mountain in a panic from afar and asked hurriedly, "What's wrong? Do you need help?"
The two men ignored him and ran past him.
On the tree, the little monkey bared its teeth.
Zhou Pengcheng saw the monkey's tail hanging down and said with a smile, "Are you being naughty again?"
