"Sold? Even the barracks?"
When Qiao Changhai learned about this, he looked at Qiao Baozhu in confusion.
Qiao Baozhu nodded and said, "We have sold everything that can be sold, with agricultural machinery being the first to be sold. Someone has bought the building of the store before me.
The regiment gave Shen Xiao two options, asking us to choose between the auditorium and the barracks. Shen Xiao took a fancy to the yard of the auto repair company. He knew that I wanted to build a factory. The yard of the auto repair company was spacious and the house was simple but had a height of 9 meters.
So we asked for the auto repair company. ”
There was no trace of relief or joy on Qiao Changhai's face, instead he looked gloomy and ugly.
He was silent for a long time, then he looked up to the sky and sighed, "Prodigal sons, all of them are prodigal sons."
Qiao Baozhu knew what Qiao Changhai was talking about and what he was expressing emotion about.
When the Corps was building the Great Northern Wilderness, hundreds of thousands of people risked their lives to open up the wasteland. It is unimaginable how much human, material and financial resources the country has exhausted to build the Great Northern Wilderness into the Great Northern Granary.
It was a thriving business in the first few years, but why was it cancelled in the end?
In addition to conflicts with local administrative management, it is also closely related to corruption.
The rich Great Northern Wilderness has been suffering losses for years and needs financial subsidies from the military.
Not to mention future generations, even the locals who are experiencing this now find it difficult to understand and feel deeply saddened.
"Can the things you destroyed in your house be exchanged for a 3,000-square-meter barracks? That's 3,000 square meters. Have you completed the formalities? Don't wait until something goes wrong later."
Qiao Changhai was sad for a while and could only persuade himself to live his life well first. Cheer up and ask Qiao Baozhu some details about the house.
"It's said to be 3,000 square meters, but the barracks themselves only have a dozen rooms. The enclosed yard takes up quite a lot of space. Comrade Shen Xiao said that the red bricks used to build the walls were all fired in their own kiln."
"The things we lost were mostly radios, sewing machines and some new furniture. When I got married, the dowry I brought with me also caused a sensation in the family compound.
Shen Xiao's comrades had all seen it, and they could all testify that their family had suffered property losses of over a thousand yuan. ”
The group also knew that no matter how rich Shen Xiao's family was, they would not burn so much money in one fire. But over the years, Shen Xiao has helped and subsidized so many comrades. Especially the comrades who had retired and returned home, when they heard that Shen Xiao was in trouble, they all called the regiment headquarters. Some people also sent money to Shen Xiao, but their conditions were not that good, so the amount they sent was only about thirty or fifty.
But they were outnumbered, and the regiment headquarters saw it and were willing to help Shen Xiao.
The proposal to use cars to compensate for the yard was passed unanimously by the regiment headquarters. Qiao Baozhu went to handle the formalities and everything went exceptionally smoothly.
"By the way, I heard that the quartermaster seemed to have been punished as well? He was the one who was behind the scenes, instigating those people to take revenge on Shen Xiao."
Qiao Changhai is actually better informed than Qiao Baozhu's family member.
This made Qiao Baozhu curious. "You work in the city, how do you know this news?"
Qiao Changhai sneered: "I stay at home and never go out, but I still have my apprentices and villagers. Some people come to me and are willing to tell me about the things in the village."
So that's how it is. Qiao Baozhu nodded in understanding.
Ever since Qiao Changhai and his wife made great contributions in catching spies in the city and each got a formal job, their status in the village has risen.
In addition to his own relatives who wanted to beg for money, the ambitious young people in the village also wanted to ask Qiao Changhai for help to find jobs in the city.
"That quartermaster is Bai Hongmei's husband. The couple are birds of a feather. I heard that Bai Hongmei was beaten every day at home and couldn't get a divorce even if she wanted to."
Speaking of this, Qiao Baozhu remembered something.
The kid I met on the train that day was indeed Wei Dong.
He actually ran back secretly.
