Chapter 120 Silent Comfort



The next day, before dawn, Xue Mingliang and Chu Yunfeng came to pick him up in the Xuejia Village mule car. They went to the county town and changed to a train, and arrived at school that evening.

Sanwang acted very calm, and did not allow his parents, brothers, sisters, and younger brothers to send him to the village entrance, but at most sent him to the outside of his own courtyard wall. But as he got farther and farther away from home, Sanwang began to shed tears, and as he got farther and farther away from the village, he began to cry loudly.

Xue Mingliang took a towel and wiped his tears. "You will miss home at first, but just bear it for three to five days."

Chu Yunfeng: "If you miss home, just write a letter. It's okay. No one will laugh at you."

Sanwang immediately stopped crying, "Who is crying? I'm not crying. I was blinded by the wind."

Chu Yunfeng patted his shoulder and said, "You are still a child. You don't have to be so competitive. The teacher won't laugh at you."

Sanwang: "Teacher, don't you adults always say that you are blinded? Why can't I be confused? I am not a child, I am a man! A man who wants to support his family!" Sanwang looked like an old father who went out to work and had several children at home.

Xue Mingliang & Chu Yunfeng: This child is so dramatic. We thought he would cry all the way and asked everyone to comfort him, but we didn’t expect that he would comfort us first.

As soon as Sanwang stopped crying, he started asking Chu Yunfeng how to compete, how to get a ranking, and how to get on the newspaper and radio.

"Teacher, is there a loudspeaker radio station in the district?" His understanding of radio was the commune's loudspeaker, which had electricity.

Chu Yunfeng was responsible for explaining to him what radio, radio waves, radio stations, etc. were, so that Sanwang would know that there was a radio station in the district that was dedicated to emitting radio waves, so that the radios in the district could listen to that radio station.

Sanwang slapped his thigh and said, "Then I have to go to the radio station to check it out."

Chu Yunfeng: "Only if you win a place in the competition will the radio station broadcast your news. It's not easy to get in at other times." He found that this child was very easy to teach. All he had to do was find his interests and hook up with him. It was effortless.

Sanwang is already gearing up and can't wait to go to school to start training, competitions, and newspaper broadcasts. He imagines his parents and brothers and sisters gathered together waiting for news from him.

It’s exciting just thinking about it!

Seeing the mule car going farther and farther away, Lin Lan felt more and more reluctant to let it go. For a moment, she couldn't help but call her son back. But she knew that she couldn't do that. If she couldn't let it go, Sanwang would be even more reluctant.

Han Qingsong held her hand tightly and said, "Let's go home and cook."

Lin Lan felt his eyes wandering over the children, as if he was planning who to send away next. She quickly squeezed his big, thick hand and whispered, "Third brother," Don't go too far.

Han Qingsong glanced at her and used other topics to divert the sadness that Sanwang's departure brought her.

Because Sanwang left, the children in the family were in a bad mood. They used to go to school and go home together, but now one of them is missing. They felt bad. Although they were laughing and joking last night, they were speechless now.

Xiao Wang: “Hey…”

Mai Sui: "Is it possible that he forgot to bring the handkerchief I gave to San Wang?"

Erwang: "I brought it. It's in his pocket."

Dawang: “…”

Seeing them like that, Lin Lan clapped her hands to encourage them, "Brother Xiaowang, come on, sing us the song you wrote for Brother Xiaosan."

Xiao Wang sang fluently: "My brother is a little bald head, he is smart and naughty~~, he goes up to the ninth heaven to catch the moon, he goes down to the five oceans to catch turtles..." Chairman M's poems are also catchy by children in his home.

Mai Sui and Er Wang also joined in.

Singing, morning exercises, and making breakfast. After breakfast, Mai Sui Erwang took Xiaowang to school, while Dawang went to the vegetable garden first to pull weeds and catch insects, and also applied farm manure from his own pond to the vegetable patch.

After the children left, Lin Lan saw that Han Qingsong had not left yet, so she urged him: "Third brother, it's time to go to work."

Han Qingsong: "I'll take you to the soap factory." He didn't want her to be alone at home with her wild thoughts.

Lin Lan acted as if nothing had happened. "I'll clean up the house first, take apart the quilt and go to the river to wash it someday."

"Wait for me to come back and do it." Han Qingsong pushed the bicycle and motioned her to get on.

Lin Lan smiled and said, "Third brother, I'm really fine. You can go now. I have to pack up and go to the publicity team."

Han Qingsong stared at her, with a light in the depths of his black eyes, and raised his hand to touch her face.

Lin Lan was afraid that he would worry about her, "I'll go to the vegetable garden and take a look." She turned and left.

Han Qingsong rode his bike to work only after he could no longer see her.

When Lin Lan was going to the vegetable garden, she heard a boy calling, "Mom!" The voice sounded very much like Sanwang's. Lin Lan subconsciously responded, "Little San brother..." Only then did she realize that she had misheard. She turned her head and saw Zhang Caihong and her boy busy in the vegetable garden.

"Mother, I caught a big grasshopper." The child shouted, turned his head and saw Lin Lan, and shouted again: "Third mother, I caught a big grasshopper."

Lin Lan smiled and said, "You are so awesome." My little brother can catch bigger ones.

She talked to Zhang Caihong for a few words, and Zhang Caihong became very jealous and praised Sanwang highly.

Lin Lan went to the vegetable garden and saw Da Wang busy there.

Afraid that she would step into the mud, Da Wang handed her the basket through the curtain, which contained the dishes for today.

Although the vegetable garden has a lot of vegetables, the space is not very large. After all, it is a private plot that is used in every possible way, and the family does not have much space. Dawang works very quickly, and it only takes a short while to water the vegetables, pull weeds, and catch insects. They take care of the vegetable garden every day, so it is very worry-free.

Da Wang packed up and went down to the river to wash his feet, then put on his straw sandals. He took the basket from Lin Lan, carried the bucket and went home with her.

Although Da Wang didn't say anything, Lin Lan could feel that he stayed at home with her on purpose because he was afraid that she would be sad because San Wang was gone.

She was very moved.

After returning home, Lin Lan took out the quilt to be washed, and Da Wang came over and quietly helped her to take it apart. He never did such a thing before.

Lin Lan: "My eldest son, if you don't need any thread, just cut one end and pull it out. The thread can still be used."

Da Wang did as she said. His hands moved nimbly and agilely, and in a short while he had pulled out several long threads for her, much faster than she could.

Lin Lan smiled and narrowed her eyes. "The eldest son is most like his father. He is truly a man of both civil and military talents." She was never afraid of being corny when praising her own son.

Da Wang blushed.

Lin Lan thought that Da Wang sympathized with her at the moment, was calm and more receptive to reason, so she took the opportunity to brainwash him.

Da Wang, a quiet boy, actually has a positive idea. He wants to join the army. Lin Lan has seen this for a long time, so she has been encouraging him to study hard. Even if he joins the army, there is a difference between educated soldiers and uneducated ones.

"I listened to the radio and read the newspapers, and I found that even the military was reluctant to hire educated people. The conscripts who went to the countryside were discharged after three years, and when they came back, they were no different from the farmers. Only those like your father who could endure hardships, who were not afraid of bloodshed or death, had a chance to be promoted."

She glanced at Da Wang and continued, "If you are educated, the army will recommend you to go to college. If you pass the military academy and then join the army, that's even more amazing. You will be an officer when you graduate. I think you will be a lieutenant or a captain at least. Most people who enter the army for military service will never make it in their lifetime."

She hoped that even if Da Wang joined the army, he would have a good education, wisdom and courage, and be good at both civil and military affairs. Of course, she felt that with Da Wang's skills and hardworking spirit, it would not be difficult for him to become a non-commissioned officer from a combat soldier. However, if he had education, his path would be wider, farther, and easier, which means his ceiling would be higher.

Although Da Wang didn't say anything, Lin Lan could tell from his expression that he had heard it.

She smiled, got down barefoot, took out a small wooden box from her suitcase, and placed it next to Da Wang.

Da Wang glanced at her.

Lin Lan encouraged him to open it.

Da Wang unbolted the latch and opened the lid. Inside was a box of various medals! His long, dark eyebrows couldn't help but twitch.

Lin Lan: "Your father gave his life for this. It's our family heirloom."

Each medal hides a story of blood and tears, but Han Qingsong never tells it, as if these things have nothing to do with him.

Da Wang stared at the medals in silence.

Lin Lan smiled and said, "Come, eldest son, pick one and I'll give it to you."

Da Wang looked at Lin Lan in surprise, "Me?"

Lin Lan nodded: "Yes, I'll give you one for you to keep."

Da Wang looked at her for a moment, then quickly lowered his head and accurately held one of them in his palm, as if he was afraid that Lin Lan would regret it. It was a first-class merit medal, with a portrait of Chairman M on the front and a few words raised on the back: Self-defense, counterattack, and defend the border.

Lin Lan patted him on the shoulder and said, "My eldest son has good taste. You must take good care of it."

Da Wang nodded, and there seemed to be a flame burning in his deep black eyes.

Lin Lan put the others away again. If she gave one away, there would be one less, so she couldn't bear to give away more.

At this time, Xiuyun came to call her to a meeting.

Lin Lan responded, turned around and said to Da Wang: "Okay, eldest son, go do your own thing, I'll fix the quilt later."

She quickly tidied up the quilt that had already been taken apart, rolled up the quilt cover and inside out separately, wrapped the cotton in a bundle and placed it in the cupboard to prevent it from getting dusty.

Lin Lan gave some instructions to Da Wang and went to the meeting with Xiu Yun.

Da Wang treasured the military medal and hid it in his small wooden box. Then he took his hoe and went to work.

Lin Lan went to the propaganda team. The propaganda team now also has two rooms, but they are not in the brigade. Instead, they are located a little further back in the center of the village. They are the houses left behind by the five-guarantee households in the village who died.

Seeing Lin Lan coming over, Dong Huaihua immediately sighed, "Lin Lan, tell me, this promotion work won't be done anymore."

This year, the propaganda team has been given many new tasks, including promoting the policies passed down by superiors, such as stepping up efforts to cut off the capitalist tail.

In fact, it has been emphasized for a long time that we would rather have socialist grass than capitalist seedlings, and we have been asking for tails to be cut off. The private plots of each family are only the size of a palm, and each family raises one chicken. However, policies also depend on the strength of implementation. Many times, there is a lot of thunder but little rain, and then it becomes more and more relaxed.

But at the beginning of this year, a new wind started blowing from nowhere and it became stronger and stronger. Not only did the cities crack down on speculation, but even in the countryside, private plots were taken back and excess chickens, ducks and geese were killed. All personal trading activities of members were banned, and even unregulated sideline businesses in the brigade were closed down.

The soap factory of Shanzui Village Brigade was fine because it had been reported to the county revolutionary committee and applied for scale approval. The weaving point of Lin Mei's brigade was also registered after Lin Lan reminded it, and there was no problem. In addition, many newly opened side businesses in the brigade were closed, such as oil mills, tofu shops, flour mills, etc.

Dong Huaihua had always followed the rules, doing what was said, and not understanding the spirit of the document carefully. But this time she also felt it was very difficult. What did it mean to take back the private plots? Kill the extra chickens, ducks and geese? These were the life-saving things of the members. She didn't dare to touch them.

In fact, even when the control was the most severe in the past few years, Han Yongfang did not take it seriously. Their village has always given private plots to members, which are small plots in the corners. They cannot grow food after being taken over by the brigade, so it is just right for members to grow vegetables. Even if it is about raising chickens, everyone has limited food anyway, so if you want to raise chickens, you can raise them. The brigade will not give you any more food, and Han Yongfang does not care.

It seems that he is even more powerful now than he was then, so Dong Huaihua is a little confused.

She asked Lin Lan whether she asked the members to kill the extra chickens and ducks.

Lin Lan: "We are propaganda personnel, not law enforcement personnel. If we don't do this, it will be a thankless task. Are we going to kill people just because we are asked to? Even if the county commune sends people to investigate, with so many brigades and so many members, they won't be able to finish the investigation by the end of the year."

Dong Huaihua understood, "Then we just focus on publicity?"

Lin Lan: "This is our job."

Lin Lan felt that this trend would not last long. It was probably because some leader at the top was suddenly too radical. It would fade away by the end of the year or some other time. She felt that there was no need to force the villagers to kill the extra chickens and ducks. After all, they were an important source of food for the people to improve their diet. Moreover, if the ducks went into the water, the chickens could also dig for food in the soil, so there would be no waste of food.

However, the spirit of the superior still needs to be understood and conveyed. You can be more tactful and not so rude and straightforward that people will resist.

Many members could no longer understand why they always boasted about the bitterness and revenge of the class. After all, these were slogans from the 1940s and 1950s. There had been a gap of nearly 20 years, and many young people could no longer experience them firsthand. Now the voices and demands of the members were to relax material control and to improve living standards.

In 73 years, one big foot of the giant New China has already taken a step forward. What is needed now is for the foot behind to catch up, rather than step back.

They began to discuss the program arrangement, how to publicize the policy of cutting the tail, and how to make the members happy and not disgusted.

Lin Lan has always been good at this, and this time is no exception. On the surface, she is promoting tail-cutting, but in fact, it also meets the needs and desires of the members, so the response is bound to be very good.

They were busy when someone said that someone from the Anti-American Brigade had arrived and wanted to see Captain Lin to receive them.

Lin Lan: "I'm busy. You guys go check it out. I still have to go to the soap factory."

The Anti-American Brigade always invited Lin Lan to do publicity, but later on, the relationship deteriorated and Lin Lan never went again. The reason was that Yu Xin used her connections to transfer from Yongxing Brigade to the Anti-American Brigade last fall. After the transfer, she set up her own brigade publicity team and brought four or five educated youths to compete with Lin Lan for publicity business.

Lin Lan didn't care about this. Every brigade should have a publicity team, and she didn't engage in any monopoly. She only went because people paid her money and food. But Yu Xin treated her as a stepping stone and wanted to compete with her in everything.

Unfortunately, when she and Lin Lan wanted to compete for the publicity business of the nearby brigade, Lin Lan had already gone to participate in the county exchange meeting and won the publicity red flag award. When Lin Lan came back, she was even more busy with exchanges and soap factories, and had no time to go to other brigades for publicity, so she ignored her.

Yu Xin took advantage of this opportunity and took the initiative to promote the company in other brigades. However, their performances were too typical of model operas and the members did not like them. Later, they went down a path of vulgarity to please the members. As a result, their reputation became worse and worse, and fewer and fewer brigades invited them. They would rather let Liu Chuncai and Chang Fuyu from Shanzui Village go and talk nonsense.

Lin Lan didn't want to see Yu Xin. She went to the soap factory after the meeting, but was blocked by Yu Xin just as she left the publicity team.

Lin Lan was too lazy to pay attention to her and just turned and left.

Yu Xin: "Captain Lin, why are your eyesight so bad?"

Lin Lan: "It's because my eyesight is too good. I'm afraid of getting them dirty."

Yu Xin's expression changed. "We are both in the publicity team now. Who is more noble than who? You should be more cautious when you speak."

Lin Lan looked at her and smiled, "I'm sorry, I didn't know you were so determined to do it and to set up a chastity archway." She turned cold and said unceremoniously, "Don't think that everyone is blind and deaf and knows nothing. If you don't go away, don't blame me for saying something nice."

Yu Xin was so angry that her face turned pale and blue. "I will go to college even without you. I will go this year!"

Lin Lan glanced at her with contempt. "You are so determined. It seems that you have not only settled the relationship with the brigade, but also the relationship with the commune. Tsk tsk, it's not easy. Keep it up."

Wherever there is interest and power, there are transactions. This is an irrefutable truth.

Lin Lan was doing propaganda and wandering around various communes and brigades, so she naturally heard a lot of gossip. Moreover, there were two gossipy men, Chang Fuyu and Liu Chuncai, so she could hear them even if she didn't pay attention. Some cadres abused their power for personal gain and bullied beautiful educated youth, while some educated youth took the initiative to get close to them in order to get lazy or get a place in university.

Anyway, Yu Xin is on this path now. She thinks that others don't know why, and she has to come to Lin Lan to show off that she got the recommendation list of the Workers, Peasants and Soldiers University.

It seems that the person she hooked up with has some power. He transferred her to another team last year and recommended her to a university this year.

But what does it have to do with me whether she goes to college or not?

Lin Lan was too lazy to pay attention to her as she was still busy with important things, so she left Yu Xin and left.

Yu Xin shouted, "Don't be complacent. I think there's something wrong with the soap factory in your brigade! Just wait and see!"

Lin Lan came to the soap factory.

Now at the soap factory, apart from the technical team that needs Shen Yu to keep an eye on, he basically doesn't have to worry about anything else in production.

After all, there is no high technology involved, it is purely a matter of familiarity. Today's members are all selected through practical experience, they are hardworking, capable, hardworking, and not talkative. This is all selected after Erwang, Han Yongfang, and Shen Yu discussed and selected. Those who are suitable are reused, and those who are not suitable are driven out even if they cry their death, so as to avoid leaving a little rat shit to spoil the whole pot of porridge.

Erwang also discussed with Shen Yu to formulate the rules and regulations for the soap factory. These simple rules were effective. If the members memorized and followed them and made clear their respective responsibilities and obligations, they could avoid a lot of troubles, and even if there were problems, they could be solved in the fastest way.

This way, there won't be a situation where members have unclear responsibilities and when problems arise, they just argue and see who has the loudest voice and cause chaos.

Shen Yu was experimenting with the soap, and Lin Lan arrived just in time to see the results.

Success!

Lin Lan praised him, "Shen Yu, you are amazing. Our soap is better than the supply and marketing cooperative's."

Many products of the supply and marketing cooperatives in the countryside are inferior or low-quality products from big cities. In any case, the best ones will not be taken away.

Their soap factory is not large now, but the soap they make is very good. Not only is it strong in cleaning power, but it is also not easy to crack. It is not like the soap bought from the supply and marketing cooperatives. If you are unlucky and get a bad batch, it will crack for no reason, or the soap will become sticky and rotten when soaked in water.

Shen Yu had already talked to Sanwang last night, so he didn't go this morning. When he saw Lin Lan, he asked about it.

"Let's go. Your eyes were red when you left, but you were still holding on. I guess you will cry as soon as you leave the village." Lin Lan said with a smile, tears glistening in her eyes.

Shen Yu: "The district is not far from us, we can go see him when we have time."

After chatting for a while, they looked at the fragrant soap factory. While they were busy, someone came to say that the commune cadres were here to inspect the soap factory.

Shen Yu frowned.

Lin Lan: “What’s the matter?”

Shen Yu said: "Ever since the commune got a new director of the Revolutionary Committee, various on-site inspections have been carried out every few days, which is very annoying." He had never told Lin Lan about such trivial matters before, and basically handled them by himself. If it didn't work, he would ask the team leader to solve it.

He picked up the hook that scraped the bottom of the pot.

Lin Lan: "Let's go and take a look together."

The soap factory was actually just a few rooms. It was originally a field house outside the Shanzui Village Brigade. It was built to facilitate the threshing of grain nearby. Because the smell of oil residue when making soap was very unpleasant, Lin Lan suggested moving it farther away from the village. Han Yongfang discussed it with the brigade leader and moved here.

When they came out of the house, they saw several commune officials coming outside. One of them was wearing a white Dacron short-sleeved shirt with a pen in his left breast pocket, and loose cloth trousers. On his feet, he was wearing a pair of leather shoes that had been worn to a white color, but were polished to a shine. Unfortunately, it was dusty in the countryside and there was a layer of dirt on them, so they could not be seen as leather shoes.

When he saw Lin Lan and Shen Yu coming out, he immediately raised his chin and pretended to look at the sky.

Others immediately asked, "Who has the final say here? Where are your brigade cadres?" Another person said, "There's something wrong with this soap factory. Is it a seed of capitalism? I think it should be cut down."

Shen Yu whispered, "This is the first time these people come here, I don't know them."

Lin Lan saw that they did not look like proper cadres, "Who are you?"

"We? We are the market management staff of the commune. This is Section Chief Fang from our market management department. Section Chief Fang is going to the countryside to check whether the sideline businesses of each brigade are exceeding the standards. There is something wrong with your soap factory."

Shen Yu stepped forward and said, "Our soap factory has been registered with the County Revolutionary Committee. There is no problem. The documents are still there."

"Just because you said to file a case, so it should be filed?" The man in the Dacron Tremble Pants raised his eyebrows and strode towards Lin Lan and Shen Yu.

He was not tall, with thick and short broom-like eyebrows raised high, a pair of thin and long slanted eyes, a garlic nose without a bridge, a pair of big thick lips, and bad teeth. There was so much space between his two big teeth that one more tooth could be squeezed in.

Lin Lan had rarely seen such an ugly man in her life. When he came over, she immediately frowned and tilted her head in disdain.

"What kind of attitude is this! Is this the attitude of your Shanzui Village Brigade towards the commune cadres? You are disrespecting revolutionary cadres, this is reactionary!" Fang Bisheng began to make random accusations.

Lin Lan knew quite a few commune cadres, and most of them knew him. Moreover, when Lin Lan went out to promote the work, many cadres from other brigades also knew him. But this guy didn't even know her and even came up to her and barked and yelled at her.

Where did this ugly person come from? It's really an eyesore! I'm so worried! I'm in a bad mood, and you're still an eyesore!

She kindly reminded: "Are you new to the Market Management Department? You should get to know Director Han and Deputy Captain Han of your commune's Public Security Bureau."

If you don’t know Han Qingsong, you should know Han Qingyun. After all, Han Qingyun has a lot of dealings with the marketing management department.

Fang Bisheng immediately snorted in a haughty manner and squinted at Lin Lan: "I say to you, woman, you are trying to bribe the commune cadres, you are trying to corrupt the revolutionary cadres, you, reactionary!"

Shen Yu had never seen them before, not because they were here to check on the cadres, so he said bluntly, "Don't tell me they are just hooligans pretending to be cadres."

Lin Lan said to a member nearby: "Go and call a few militiamen nearby to arrest these scoundrels and take them to the police station!"

A member ran to the nearby fields to call for help. What militia? In fact, he was just calling for members who needed work.

The officials immediately became anxious and shouted, "What are you doing? You are openly confronting the revolutionary officials. You are rebelling!"

Fang Bisheng smiled in a lewd way, but he thought he was extremely handsome. "I say, little girl, how can you be so hot-tempered?"

He stretched out his hand and grabbed Lin Lan's chest. He thought Lin Lan was pretty, with big breasts, a thin waist and long legs, and he thought she was the young wife he flirted with on a daily basis.

Shen Yu's face changed, and he wanted to block Lin Lan behind him, but who knew that Lin Lan snatched the stove hook from his hand and hit the ugly guy!

"Shut your stinky mouth, you ugly bastard!" Lin Lan was already annoyed, and now he actually dared to tease her. She slapped Fang Bisheng on the wrist, making him scream on the spot.

"There are bad guys and spies here! Catch them quickly!" He used this trick many times to bully young ladies and wives. As long as the other party had no background, he would usually hit the target with one blow.

Several of them used to be domineering in their own brigade, but some time ago they went to the commune to seek jobs. In the past month, they have been going around various brigades to check on people's side businesses and take advantage of any opportunity. So far, they have never encountered any rivals.

A woman dared to act like this at this moment, she was simply asking for criticism! He ordered three of his subordinates to seize Lin Lan's stove hook.

Lin Lan thought that they were just the kind of hooligans in the village who did not farm properly and had to take shortcuts by being lazy, relying on currying favor with corrupt cadres to act as active elements and punish the ordinary members and cadres who were abusing their power.

There were also such people in Shanzui Village. They were all frightened by Han Yongfang. A few of them later reverted to their old ways of gambling and were also dealt with by Han Qingsong. Now they all farm honestly.

There are no such people in our own village, but people from other villages actually come here to show off and seek a sense of existence. Of course, we can't give them face!

Beat the dog's head!

Lin Lan was already feeling uneasy because Sanwang was leaving home today, and now that this ugly guy was trying to make a scene again, she wouldn't be polite.

She asked Shen Yu to move aside and stop hitting him.

Shen Yu: “…” He followed her silently, ready to stop anyone who tried to attack her.

Lin Lan cut the arm of one lackey with a hook, and hit another one's shoulder with another hook. They screamed in pain and wanted to find weapons but were stopped by Shen Yu and the members.

Several members didn't take it seriously, but now there are still people who dare to bully Lin Lan? They think they are living a comfortable life.

They stood aside and watched the show, and reminded Lin Lan, "Hit the guy with the pen in his hand, let him pretend!"

"He wants to pick up stones, slap his hand!"

With Shen Yu and the others helping on the side, the men didn't gain any advantage and were instead severely beaten by Lin Lan.

Fang Bisheng jumped up and down: "Why don't you ask who I am, Grandpa! I tell you, all your brigade's side businesses are under the management of our Market Management Department! I'm going back to get the documents now, and I'll shut you down! You stinky bitch, just wait and see!"

He was used to being overbearing. Whenever he went around the brigades, the brigades had to show some respect in order to deal with him.

Little did he know that the two people in Shanzui Village were such stupid people that not only did they not show any reaction when he came, they even let their wives beat him!

Can you beat grandpa?

Of course he knew Han Qingsong, and that was why he deliberately came to cause trouble. If Han Qingsong came to control him for the soap factory, it would be obstructing his official duties, and he would be suspected of being bribed by the brigade to abuse his power for personal gain and run a side business, which would be a good opportunity for Han Qingsong to sue him!

Let him not know how to lift it!

He shouted and retreated, wanting to go back to the commune to find someone to back him up, so he took the documents and brought people with him to teach them a lesson.

As a result, just as he turned around, he was hit on the leg by a hoe, and he fell flat on his face with a mouthful of dirt.

He cursed as he crawled: "Pah, pah, pah, which bastard...ah——"

Before he could get up, someone stepped on the back of his neck and he fell to the ground with a thud. A small stone got stuck in the gap between his two big teeth and it rubbed and made him bleed.

Lin Lan and Shen Yu came over, and she said, "My eldest son, these people are pretending to be commune cadres. Take them to the public security bureau and report the case."

When those three men saw Fang Bisheng being beaten, they rushed over to rob at all costs, unless they didn't want to be with them anymore.

One of them tried to pull Lin Lan, one tried to kick Da Wang, and another tried to help Fang Bisheng who was on the ground.

Da Wang slammed his hoe into the ground, used the force to jump up, and kicked away the person who was trying to pull Lin Lan away. At this time, another person kicked over, trying to knock Da Wang over. But Da Wang ignored him and pushed the long wooden handle of the hoe, hitting the person in the face with a "bang". The person was caught off guard and his nose bled.

At this time, Da Wang also fell down and hit Fang Bisheng on the back, causing Fang Bisheng to scream in pain. Da Wang held Fang Bisheng down, and reached out to grab the wrist of the third man who was trying to help him, and with a swing of his arm, he threw the man to the ground.

Everything was done instantly, neatly and efficiently.

Shen Yu: Da Wang is really strong. I have never been able to beat him in arm wrestling.

If it was someone else, they wouldn't be able to get rid of the other person's wrist even if they grabbed the other person's wrist, and might even be thrown back by the other person.

But Da Wang was very strong and he managed to throw the man to the ground with a loud bang, which sounded very painful.

Lin Lan immediately clapped her hands and cheered: "Beat the ugly guy till he's left with nothing to show for his teeth!"

Da Wang jumped up with a somersault and kicked whoever was about to get up. He didn't say anything, just played whack-a-mole and kicked whoever showed their head.

Finally, the four men realized that he wanted them to lie on the ground, and they dared not move.

Soon, Liu Guifa and several other members came over and asked, "Where did these thugs come from?"

Lin Lan: "Director, tie them up and send them to the Public Security Bureau. They are pretending to be commune officials to blackmail us."

Liu Guifa took off the rope hanging around his waist. He was the director of public security, and carrying the rope with him was just like a police officer carrying handcuffs when he went out on a mission.

Da Wang took the rope and swiftly tied Fang Bisheng's hands behind his back. He then dragged the other one over and tied him up. In a blink of an eye, the four people were tied in a string.

The knot he tied was taught by Han Qingsong. It doesn't waste the rope but is very strong and will never come undone.

Lin Lan went up and kicked the ugly guy again, "You are so ugly, you have a bad heart, and you come out to scare people. How can you be so bad!"

Shen Yu silently picked up the stove hook and put it back.

Lin Lan said to Liu Guifa, "Director, take them to the Public Security Bureau." No matter whose backdoor he used to become the section chief of the market management department, he would be punished today. If he didn't solve these bugs at once, wouldn't he have to keep an eye on the soap factory every day in the future, treating it as a piece of fat meat for them to chew whenever they wanted?

Since the soap factory opened, it has attracted many envy. Some wanted to buy shares, some wanted the technology, some wanted a share of the dividends... All of them were scolded back by Han Yongfang. No matter where the cadres came from, as long as they were not the director of the county revolutionary committee who asked for them, she was not afraid of anyone.

Shen Yu: "I'll go with you and explain the situation to you."

Lin Lan: "I'll go with you." Shen Yubi is a technician after all, and he behaves like a gentleman, so he is easily bullied. She is a publicity worker, and she is good at talking and fighting. If they dare to say something unpleasant, she will just say it back.

Da Wang wanted to follow silently.

Lin Lan: "Eldest son, why don't you cook at home?" Your younger brothers and sisters will be home from school soon.

Da Wang: “!!” I want to go.

Shen Yu: "Team Leader, you go, I'll go help with the cooking."

Lin Lan was very happy, "Then I'll trouble you. You know about keys." People in the village basically don't carry their keys with them, but put them in a fixed place, just to protect against good people but not bad people. Many people don't even lock their doors, anyway, there is nothing to worry about theft.

Da Wang rode the soap factory's bicycle with Lin Lan, while Liu Guifa and his men followed behind with the group of four.

Lin Lan had been holding back tears because of Sanwang's departure, but now all the tears turned into steam and came out. She felt relaxed and said in a relaxed tone, "My eldest son, you are getting better and better."

Da Wang: ...It’s okay.

The two of them went to the commune compound first. Most of the people there knew Lin Lan, after all, she had been there many times for publicity purposes.

They all greeted Lin Lan, "Hey, Captain Lin, this is your eldest son, he's about 10 years old? He's really tall and handsome. Hey, do you know if he has a wife?"

Da Wang: “!!!” He stopped the car with his feet to let Lin Lan get out.

A group of people gathered around to talk to Lin Lan, and took the opportunity to look at Da Wang, who was taller than all of them.

At that time, people were not getting enough nutrition and were short. The eldest and second brothers of the Han family were considered tall, about 176 cm tall, but the brothers Han Qingsong and Han Qinghua were very tall, like mutants. Han Qingsong grew taller after joining the army, while Han Qinghua grew taller because he ate well.

Da Wang's height is like his father's, but he also has the beautiful genes from his mother. He hasn't grown up yet. Although he is tall, he has a thin waist and long legs. He stands out like a crane among a flock of short and thin people.

Lin Lan: "Everyone, please make way. We are here to report a crime."

"Oh, let's report it to the police? Where's Director Han?"

These people then remembered that Director Han’s wife came with her son, and they must be looking for Director Han.

Someone shouted, "Director Han and Director Yang are out on business." The new director of the Revolutionary Committee was named Yang.

Lin Lan: "We'll report the case. It doesn't matter if Director Han isn't here. We can just report it to the Public Security Bureau."

Soon, the left-behind child Sun Zhuowen ran over and called out very sweetly, "Sister-in-law..."

Lin Lan shuddered, "Sun..."

"Sister-in-law, please don't be formal with me. Just call me Xiaosun." Sun Zhuowen smiled.

Lin Lan: "Sun Zhuowen, we are here to report a case. An ugly guy disguised himself as an officer and went to our brigade to extort money."

Sun Zhuowen immediately patted his chest and said, "If he rebels, I won't let him get away if he's caught..."

"I'm here." Lin Lan looked back, "Director, this is it."

Liu Guifa sent a few men to bring Fang Bisheng and four others over.

Sun Zhuowen was stunned for a moment and felt his hair stand on end. This... this... the flood washed away the Dragon King Temple. You are the brother-in-law of the director of the Revolutionary Committee. You go to the house of the Public Security Bureau chief to blackmail him. Aren't you too tired of living?
