Wan Feng then went to find the maintenance company commander.
It’s too late to pull bricks today, so let’s go tomorrow at noon.
The maintenance captain of the 42nd team was named Zhao. He had a very famous name, Zhao Yongsheng. It seemed that the male protagonist in the movie was named this.
However, Zhao Yongsheng in the movie is young, handsome and suave, while he has nothing to do with these eight words.
He is almost at the stage of old age and his eyesight is blurry and his days are numbered.
Zhao Yongsheng retired in 1984. After his retirement, the new company commander Zhang Zijian promoted a man named Liu Mingzheng to be the maintenance team leader.
People who are about to retire are always easier to talk to. Wan Feng got Zhao Yongsheng's consent with two packs of cigarettes and a few nice words.
"Go find Sun Jun and ask him to drive there."
Sun Jun is the driver of a Dongfanghong 28 tractor in the company. The standard configuration of a tractor in the company is two people, the driver and the driver.
Sun Jun is four years older than Wan Feng. His master, who is also the driver of their car, is in his forties this year. Of course, Wan Feng will not go to find his master because the generation gap is too big.
Anyway, the maintenance team leader agreed, so it doesn't matter who he finds.
When Wan Feng saw Sun Jun, he was lying on the kang in his small house, reading a book.
He didn't know Wan Feng and was very surprised to see him.
"I am the eldest son of the Wanshui family who is studying in another place."
Sun Jun sat up from the kang: "Are you looking for me?"
Wan Feng pulled out two packs of grape cigarettes from his pocket and threw them next to Sun Jun. "I need to buy some bricks tomorrow afternoon. Captain Zhao from the maintenance department asked me to find you."
Since the maintenance captain agreed, Sun Jun naturally had no objections: "What time do we leave?"
"Seven o'clock, one thousand bricks. Just drive the tractor to my door at 7:30."
Wan Feng calculated that if he left at seven o'clock, he would be back at ten o'clock.
After the tractor problem is solved, the next problem is manpower. All you need is a group of kids for a thousand bricks.
After dinner, Carpenter Xu and Carpenter Zhang came. After measuring the dimensions, the two carpenters started working. They spent the first night planing the materials.
Plane the required wooden planks.
The two carpenters worked until after nine o'clock in the evening and had planed out all the necessary materials. They could make doors and windows tomorrow.
At seven o'clock the next morning, Sun Jun drove the tractor on time.
Wan Feng and his father, together with Jin Xingbin and five or six other children, drove towards Hongmaoji in a grand manner.
After passing Xiaohualin Brigade and walking more than ten miles to the southeast, you will reach Hongmaoji, the government seat of Yanjiang Commune. In the surrounding area within dozens of miles, Hongmaoji is the most prosperous place.
Hongmaoji is close to the bank of the Longjiang River. There is an island called Wangmuliu in the center of the river. The opposite bank of Wangmuliu Island is still a Far Eastern city in the former Soviet Union, which is basically equivalent to the size of a small county town in China.
Before liberation, this island was very prosperous. It was a trading port with the former Soviet Union and trade continued until the 1950s.
However, after the relationship between the two countries deteriorated, the port was closed and Wangmuliu Island became a desolate island.
Six or seven years later, Wangmuliu Island was reopened and became one of the ports for trade between Pihe and Sutong.
Opposite Wangmuliu Island is Qianyang Brigade of Yanjiang Commune, where the only brick factory nearby is located.
The price of red bricks here is about the same as that of red bricks from Wahou Brick and Tile Factory, and is even slightly cheaper, at two-thirds a piece.
After Wan Feng paid the money, he found out that the brick factory here actually loaded the bricks.
The workers at the brick factory loaded the bricks in just over ten minutes.
The tractor returned to the forty-second hour at nine o'clock, and the group of children finished unloading the bricks while playing and making noise at half past nine.
Wan Feng said goodbye to his father and said he was going out for a while, then he left the house and walked towards Dalinzi School alone.
Follow the 42nd Company all the way to the northeast, leave the company, and after crossing a piece of land about 50 meters wide, you will reach the territory of the Dalinzi Brigade.
Dalinzi Brigade is a large village with nearly a thousand households.
The brigade here is different from the brigade in Jiangwei.
The teams under Jiangwei Brigade are scattered, while the teams under Yanjiang Commune all live in the same place. From the outside, it looks like a village, but the area it covers is very astonishing.
Wan Feng walked along a small path that he took to school and arrived at the Dalinzi Village Supply and Marketing Cooperative.
This is the political and commercial education center of Dalinzi Brigade.
The brigade headquarters, supply and marketing cooperative and school were lined up in a row, separated only by a road.
There were several teenagers playing ball on the school playground, and Li Changhe and others were not there.
When Wan Feng walked slowly past the Dalinzi Supply and Marketing Cooperative, someone inside the cooperative saw him.
"Is that the guy who just passed by the forty-two guy?"
