"I heard from Lao Fang that you went looking for a place to raise chickens this morning. Did you find it?"
Shen Annian: “Comrade Yang and Comrade Liang from the farm are very familiar with the surrounding terrain. They took me to have a look around and found a suitable place to build a chicken farm.
As for the pig farm, it can just be expanded at the original location.
It's quite far from the troops, so even if we expand it later, we can expand to the side."
“Just let them lay the bricks in the next few days, and when they are ready, they will build the house according to your drawings.
But they are all rough people, so you can just watch them and tell them if they do anything wrong."
Brigade Commander Zhou was so polite that she felt a little embarrassed.
However, although I feel embarrassed, I still have to make the request.
"Commander Zhou, we still need your help in finding piglets and chicks."
"Lao Fang mentioned this to me. I'll try to figure out a solution."
"Commander Zhou, I have something else I want to discuss with you.
I saw fruit trees all over the mountains here. I heard that most of them belong to the nearby brigades, and some belong to our army.
I'm thinking about raising bees and selling the honey to the market, which would also be a source of income."
This young comrade has a lot of ideas.
"Tell me first, what are your thoughts?"
Shen Annian likes to deal with such straightforward people.
Since he asked, Shen An Nian didn't hesitate to tell him all his thoughts on camp construction.
Brigade Commander Zhou felt dizzy after hearing this. His evaluation of this young comrade just now was too conservative.
This young comrade is not just brave, she is extremely bold.
Listen to what she said, about setting up a factory, no longer using the county's electricity, but instead using biogas for power generation, resettling veterans, and using industry and agriculture to support the military.
This is not something that ordinary people can come up with.
She is so bold at such a young age, could she have learned it from her father?
It is hard to imagine how bold the economic policies her father formulated were.
"If it's according to your idea, can we find a way to resettle the veterans?"
"Of course there is a way. In our Construction Corps, many people retire due to injuries or illness, as well as due to old age. Every year, there are quite a few people who retire.
Many veterans cannot find jobs, and one veteran may be involved in the affairs of a whole family or several people.
One factory can solve the employment problems of hundreds or even thousands of people.
These soldiers have sacrificed so much for the people. We can't do anything else, but at least we can give them a job and keep them fed."
As a soldier himself, the employment issue of veterans has always been a pain in Brigade Commander Zhou's heart.
It would be great if she really had a way to solve the employment problem for veterans.
"Okay, when the time comes, write a report and I'll submit it to the higher-ups."
She is good at writing plans.
Shen Annian nodded, "Okay, I'll go back and think about it first, sort out my ideas first, and then write it into a plan and submit it after I've sorted it out."
Although she said so, Brigade Commander Zhou still did not let her go. Instead, he arrested her and questioned her.
Not only did he listen to it himself, he also called Chief of Staff Sun and Political Commissar Li over. However, Political Commissar Li went to the city for a meeting, so only Political Commissar Sun came.
Chief of Staff Sun had never met Shen Anyian, but he had heard a little about Shen Anyian's affairs.
After all, this military wife had just arrived at the family compound for a few days, and she asked Peng Hanmei to come and apologize in person. He had no choice but to hear about it.
Before they met, he thought Shen An Nian would be a rough character, but when he saw Shen An Nian, he was stunned.
She is so delicate and weak, and looks down on the powerful character who doesn't seem to be able to make Peng Hanmei suffer.
After introducing them to each other, Commander Zhou smiled and said, "Comrade Shen is amazing. He told me about using industry and agriculture to feed back the army, increase jobs, and resettle veterans.
I don't know much about economics, so I called you over to listen."
Chief of Staff Sun was a little surprised. He knew Shen Annian's identity and also knew why her father was demoted.
Even so, she is not afraid and still wants to work in the economy in the military?
"How can a little girl like you have such a bold idea?"
Shen Annian knew that plans alone were not enough to convince these leaders, and she had to show her actual achievements.
She smiled at them and said, "To be honest, I used to work in the commune over there, and I was also in charge of the economy.
During the more than three months that I was in office, I proposed to open a pig farm, a chicken farm, and four factories.
Although it is not a big factory, it has solved the problem and provided jobs for nearly 200 people.
If I had the support of several leaders in the army, I believe I would have achieved even better results."
All her achievements are well documented, and they can find out by just making a phone call.
Brigade Commander Zhou and Staff Officer Sun looked at each other. They didn't know about this.
"Then tell me how you want us to support you."
"If I ask for money, will the two leaders agree?"
Chief of Staff Sun couldn't help but smile bitterly, "The worst thing about our army is money."
If they had money, they would have changed their equipment long ago.
"Then let's not talk about money, and start with what we can do.
The weather in Jing County is very suitable for growing fruit trees. The fruits here are not selling well, mainly because there is no shortage locally and consumption is high.
We can make it into canned fruit or dried fruit and sell it to other places."
