Chapter 234: Settlement of Accounts and Collection of Interest



After she said that, Zheng Tiansen also became curious and excited.

After sitting on the train for a long time, they had to meet people and have meals and social events. They were all very tired.

After talking and washing up, they all went to bed.

In the morning, Zheng Tiansen and Linglong woke up to the familiar sound of the military bugle, and they were very close.

Zheng Tiansen also went to the training ground to run and exercise.

Some new recruits didn't know him and were curious about who he was, while the veterans couldn't help but get nervous when they saw his figure.

After returning from training, they went to the army canteen for breakfast together, which was naturally the canteen of the regiment.

Linglong and her family had dinner in the cafeteria yesterday, and everyone in the cafeteria knew that they were back.

After breakfast, everyone else went to training or stand guard. They sent Congcong to Tong's home first, and then walked to the camp together.

Zheng Tiansen didn't let Linglong in, but asked her to wait outside. He went in and waited for Xiaojiang to come out.

Xiao Jiang was also very curious when he heard that his sister-in-law Linglong wanted to see him.

The three of them sat down together in the open space outside the camp.

"Xiao Jiang, after returning to your hometown, have you ever thought about what you want to do in the future?"

"What to do? My family is farmers, so of course I have to go to the fields to do farm work and earn some money when I return home." When he was in the army, he received allowances and food coupons, but when he returned home, he had to rely on his own hands to earn some food rations.

"Xiao Jiang, actually there are already some households that have divided the land."

"Households with divided property?" Xiao Jiang was confused by this term.

"Yes, it means dividing the land among each household. It's up to each household to decide how much their land can produce. As long as they pay the required public grain, the rest is theirs."

"Is there such a good thing?" Xiao Jiang was shocked.

In his impression, this land has always been public property. Everyone works together, keeps score, and when the harvest is over, they distribute food and money according to the score.

For many families, if there is a shortage of labor, the rations they get from one pound of rice is not enough to cover their family's food rations.

Of course, the government would not watch the villagers starve to death, so in the end they would have to pay the public bill.

Xiao Jiang remembered that the last time he communicated with his family, they were still nagging about this matter.

In fact, Zheng Tiansen had also read the news about the distribution of property in the newspaper.

However, this policy has not yet been implemented nationwide.

But Linglong knew that this day would not be too far away.

So far, Zheng Tiansen and Xiao Jiang have not understood Linglong's intention in bringing up this matter.

In fact, this is just a lead.

"I think the policy of dividing up the land into individual households will be implemented nationwide in the future. Do you know about the reform and opening up discussed in the July 18th meeting, Xiao Jiang?"

Xiao Jiang nodded. "I know."

Because this incident caused such a big sensation, many people were discussing it.

"Xiao Jiang, you may not know since you were in the army, but there are already many signs of individual businesses in the south."

"Individual economy?" This is another new word for Xiao Jiang.

"Yes, individual businesses are not only in the south, we also have them in the north, but they are more common in the south. They run their own businesses and make their own money."

"Is it possible?" Xiao Jiang felt that his cognition was refreshed every day.

Zheng Tiansen knows much more than Xiao Jiang. "In fact, when the People's Republic of China was first established, our country was like this. There were many small vendors and individual private businesses."

Now, Zheng Tiansen felt that he was a little confused about what his wife wanted to say.

"Xiao Jiang, even if the land is divided among each household, the output is still limited. Have you ever thought about starting a small business to make money?"

Xiao Jiang shook his head. He didn't even know these things before, so how could he have thought about it?

"Then you can think about it carefully now. Don't be in a hurry. When you return home, rest for a while and spend time with your family. When you feel like making a living and really want to make a breakthrough, come to Beijing to find me."

Now that I'm halfway through my 80s, it's not impossible for me to start some small business.

She still has to go to school, and her husband is in the army, so neither is suitable. If Xiao Jiang is willing, she can cooperate with Xiao Jiang in business.

The scale won’t be large at the beginning, as long as there is profit.

The news about these two policies is still unstable, so they just need to make small moves first.

Xiao Jiang looked at Zheng Tiansen again and saw Zheng Tiansen nodded at him.

Out of trust in his old boss Zheng Tiansen, Xiao Jiang agreed.

"Okay, sister-in-law, I'll come find you later."

"Okay, then we'll wait for you in the capital."

It seemed that he had found a new direction to strive for, and Xiao Jiang no longer looked depressed.

Only after separating from Xiao Jiang did Zheng Tiansen begin to have a heart-to-heart talk with his wife.

"Wife, this is the surprise you gave me?"

He had no idea that his wife had thought so much and so far ahead without realizing it.

Linglong smiled. "Yes, what do you think of our domestic economic situation?"

"I, I can't see clearly yet." He didn't dare to make any rash conclusions.

"We've always relied on coupons for supplies, and there's always been a market situation where supply exceeds demand. Once the country relaxes restrictions and allows private businesses to trade and produce goods, have you ever imagined what the situation would be like?"

Just by her simple description, Zheng Tiansen felt it was magnificent.

"But production also requires raw materials, right? We are still very short of raw materials."

"Don't worry, the market will adjust." She smiled.

"Now that you mention it, I'm looking forward to the future."

Linglong smiled without saying anything. The speed of the country's economic take-off in the future will only shock the entire world.

Solving Xiao Jiang's problem was a relief for Zheng Tiansen.

But that’s not the end of the story.

"Linglong, please go to Tong's house. I have something else to do. I'll come find you when I'm done."

They agreed with Aunt Tong yesterday to have dinner at Tong's house the next day.

"Okay, go ahead." Linglong didn't ask him what he was going to do.

What is Zheng Tiansen going to do?

He wanted to settle the score with Mr. Peng.

Even if he couldn't kill this guy right away, he still wanted to take back some of Xiao Jiang's grievances.

Zheng Tiansen entered and left the camp in military uniform, and most people recognized him, so he was allowed to pass through.

He went straight to the outside of Captain Peng's office.

He knocked on the door and heard a response from inside, so he went in and closed the door from the inside.

When Captain Peng first saw Zheng Tiansen, his heart skipped a beat. He stood up and asked, "Zheng Tiansen, what are you doing here?"

"I'm here to settle the score with you."

As soon as he finished speaking, he swung his fist.

When Captain Peng's men saw Zheng Tiansen coming, they secretly felt that something was wrong.

I heard some banging sounds in the office outside and was so scared that I tried to open the door in a hurry, but I couldn't open it.

When the door opened again, Zheng Tiansen had a slight injury on the corner of his mouth. He glanced at them and left in a leisurely manner.

Look at Captain Peng inside, he is so miserable.

Zheng Tiansen only had a wound on the corner of his mouth, but the man surnamed Peng had a black bruise on his face, his clothes were all wrinkled, and he sat on the ground for half a day and couldn't get up.
