Sure enough, Wen Yan and Lin Nan, who were new to the place, were a little confused by the scene. When they heard the noise, they stood there and didn't dare to move an inch.
Neither of them were at the youth center last night, so they missed the opportunity for introductions. Su Hong sighed silently and took a few steps closer.
"Hello, I was so busy yesterday that I didn't have time to greet you. My name is Su Hong. I'm a sent-down youth who came a few years earlier than you. This is Jian Dan, one of the first sent-down youths here."
If you see any of the former educated youth and need help, you can ask anyone. The atmosphere here is great. As long as you work hard and don't cause trouble, there's no one who deliberately bullies you.
After thinking for a moment, he emphasized it again.
"You should have seen the curfew at the village entrance when you entered the village, so your safety is well guaranteed."
All I can say is, if you want to live a good life, this is a good place.
Before Wen Yan could say anything more, Lin Nan grabbed her.
"Thank you, Sister Su Hong, thank you, Jian Zhiqing, we understand."
Now that we're here, we'll naturally settle down, dedicate ourselves to the countryside, and contribute our youth and passion to its development.
Su Hong's expression softened.
"You're right to think that way."
"You were children with your parents, but now that you've gone to the countryside, you're adults capable of living independently. You're thinking about things so comprehensively now."
Wen Yan breathed a sigh of relief, secretly glanced at Lin Nan, and covered her mouth to stop talking.
She almost said the wrong thing again.
Su Hong and Jian Dan pretended not to notice anything, and instead became concerned.
"Did the village chief give you a few days off? Our seeds have just sprouted. Even if we work, it'll be weeding and pulling weeds. The weeds aren't very big yet, they've just emerged from the ground. We usually do it by hand. You've just arrived, so you'd better wear gloves, otherwise your hands will get blisters in less than a day."
The two girls' attention was immediately diverted, and Wenyan screamed.
"Sister Nan, it seems we didn't buy gloves?"
Lin Nan was also stunned for a moment, then turned around and ran into the house.
"Go back and look for it. If that doesn't work, go to the commune again tomorrow."
After the educated youth finished their work, following Chen Jing and the other two returning to the city and disrupting the stagnant situation, the news of Wei Shujuan's return to the city was even more shocking to them than the previous bombshell.
Unlike the thunderous roar of the last time, this time it was a muffled rumble, but it still sent shivers down people's spines.
They had all seriously considered Chen Jing's heartfelt words before he left. No one was a fool. Even if they had gone to the countryside with enthusiasm, or with the help of someone's kindness or empty promises, the long period of labor had made everyone see the reality.
They longed to return to the city, but what they longed for was to escape this arduous labor; what they longed for was to go home.
But the increasingly clear reality no longer allows them to deceive themselves; most people are feeling desolate right now.
Wen Yan and Lin Nan looked at the table of people and fell silent again. They could even hear several people sobbing quietly. The two looked at each other and could only shrink themselves into their blankets and remain silent.
Liu Weimin was unaware of the situation at the educated youth compound, and even if he had known, he wouldn't have cared.
Upon returning, he excitedly went back to the village office and explained the situation. The Liujiatun Agricultural Cooperative immediately began working diligently to prepare.
Liu Weimin was still feeling smug. He knew he was slow-witted, and this was the first time he felt he was clever enough to think things through so quickly.
The difference between this separate greenhouse and the current "give away as many as you have" approach is quite significant. Their previously fixed greenhouse mindset has finally been relaxed a bit.
"Alright, Weimin, stop forwarding."
You're right. That's how we are now. There aren't many green vegetables available this season, so for the time being we really have to rely on these chives. So we can't let our guard down at all.
And then, that guy, the one from last year, Xiao Jian, wasn't he just raising seedlings in a small shed?
Isn't that just a small shed?
Since the large greenhouse can't be completed in a short time, let's set up the small greenhouse first.
Sigh, it's actually a bit late to start seedlings now.
Over there in the greenhouse, hurry up! If we can't use it in the spring, then after the autumn harvest, we'll have to use it as soon as possible.
Weimin, what you mentioned, we've discussed it and we think it's a good idea.
But how can you guarantee that everything sent from other villages is good? People from all around are not necessarily well-known, but not everyone is honest and trustworthy. If they mix in some rotten vegetables, can you guarantee you'll be able to detect it?
Can you guarantee that this won't happen?
You've endorsed and guaranteed this, so if any problems arise, whether it's with the other party or it escalates to the higher-ups, it's still a problem for Liujiatun. Do you believe me?
"Second Uncle, really? They're all from the same village, why would they..."
For some unknown reason, Liu Weimin suddenly frowned.
"Second Uncle, Eldest Brother, Second Brother, Patriot Brother, I understand."
How about this?
They deliver the goods, and we purchase them, allowing each village to inspect them before delivering. If quality issues are found, there will be a warning for the first offense, a fine for the second, and the goods will be kicked out for the third.
We won't interfere with that; let the people in each village take responsibility for it themselves. But in the summer, the vegetables grown by each family and village are pretty much the same, so how can we distinguish them?
Everyone says the good things belong to them, but who can really say for sure when the time comes?
Liu Aiguo, who deals with numbers the most, gets his mind all active.
How about this?
They said they wanted a lot, and we can't guarantee that their village won't go directly to Secretary Lin, or even cause a scene at the factory gate. In that case, no matter what, they'll end up in a mess.
