Chapter 169 Unwilling
Jiang Xiaoxiao came out and locked the door.
This is the railway station freight station, and the security department is right in front of us, so no one dares to act wildly here.
Go back and call Li Dahu.
Li Dahu has already discussed it with Guo Dongjun.
This grain is considered as a loan for them. After the autumn harvest, they will pay back part of it depending on this year's harvest, and then pay back the rest little by little.
If relief grain comes, it will be considered as paying back to the forest farm first, and the debt to the forest farm will be offset on the books.
Guo Dongjun agreed generously. In the past, it was always the forest farm that went to the production team for help. This was a rare opportunity for him to be in a high position.
Besides, when their forest farm was short of food, they had to borrow from the production team many times.
But this time everyone's positions were swapped.
I agreed readily and happily.
Li Dahu was also happy, having food was a good thing.
As soon as Jiang Xiaoxiao called back, Li Dahu stayed by the phone without moving a step, as this was life-saving food.
"Director, some of the grain has arrived now, and more will arrive later. The current amount should be 50,000 kilograms. Please send a truck to pick it up."
Guo Dongjun was almost shocked when he heard this. 50,000 catties! This is not a small number. Their forest farm can never eat 50,000 catties no matter how much they eat.
"Fifty thousand pounds?!"
When Li Dahu heard this, he rubbed his hands excitedly.
Give a wink, the more the better, the more the better!
There were so many educated youth in their production team, and theirs was not the only production team on the farm. Other production teams were short of food.
We can’t just take care of ourselves at this time. Given this opportunity, we must also let other production teams benefit from it.
It can be said that people at this time have a strong sense of collectivism and are not so selfish and patronizing of individuals.
Many times, in our hearts, we always put the collective in the highest position.
Who is afraid of having too much food?
When Guo Dongjun saw Li Dahu scratching his ears and cheeks, he was so amused.
"Okay, Xiaoxiao, you wait there, I'll contact the car right away. Let's go and transport the grain quickly. The sooner we can transport it, the sooner it will count. Otherwise, if the county finds out, the grain might be confiscated."
Guo Dongjun was anxious.
Who doesn’t know what’s missing?
The bandits in the county have always wanted them to be self-sufficient. If they had known that they could actually find a way to get food.
It would be strange if the county was capable.
They still don’t know what kind of people the county leaders are like after all these years.
The surrounding areas of the county have suffered from disasters at the moment, and I'm afraid the county leaders are also worried about the food problem.
If we knew that they had a way to get food here, it would be strange if we didn't intercept them.
The sooner the grain is transported back to our own forest farm, the safer it can be.
After Guo Dongjun hung up the phone with Jiang Xiaoxiao, he started contacting the transport team.
Jiang Xiaoxiao was waiting in the yard of the freight station.
Wondering where Song Moting went?
This guy left without saying a word, saying he was going to the county to look for someone, and then he disappeared.
This is too much.
Could something have happened?
Jiang Xiaoxiao was lost in thought for a while, and finally, in the afternoon, Guo Dongjun and Li Dahu showed up.
Li Dahu followed closely, fearing that Guo Dongjun would leave them behind, so he brought the educated youth to help carry the food so that they could see if there was so much food.
What came was a truck and two tractors.
Jiang Xiaoxiao saw the manager waving excitedly.
“Here, here!”
Guo Dongjun and his men came in in a mighty force.
When Guo Dongjun saw the sacks of food in the house, and especially smelled the familiar fragrance of rice, his heart was warmed.
Food has always been the lifeblood of the people.
"Xiaoxiao, that's great. You saved the lives of thousands of people on our farm. Come on, everyone, don't rest, hurry up and get started. The sooner you go, the sooner you come back."
Guo Dongjun took command.
More than a dozen educated youth jumped off the truck.
Jiang Xiaoxiao saw He Aiguo, Gu Dali and others.
“You’re here.”
He Aiguo smiled and said, "When the farm manager asked a few young men to come over to move the food, we came as soon as we heard about it. You are really capable. We don't have to go hungry this time."
Gu Dali carried the bag, the heavy grain weighing on his shoulders, but no one complained of being tired.
Knowing that there is white rice inside, he is willing to work himself to death.
Although they still have chicken, rabbit meat, eggs and other supplements.
But without food, I can’t bear to eat only meat.
It used to be called thin porridge, but now it can no longer be called porridge. You can hardly count the number of rice grains in a bowl of porridge.
The young men were working hard one by one.
Jiang Xiaoxiao also felt happy watching this scene.
Someone came up to her.
"Jiang Xiaoxiao! I didn't expect you to be so capable. You are also from Beijing North, and so am I. How come we haven't met before? I live in the compound of the provincial party committee. Where do you live?"
Jiang Xiaoxiao looked up and saw Zhang Chaoyang.
This man tried to get close to her with a smile on his face.
"We are just an ordinary staff dormitory, so we can't compare with people like you in the provincial party committee compound. We are not from the same class, so we naturally don't see each other. Also, hurry up and work, you grown man! Others are working hard over there. But you come to my place, are you trying to be lazy?"
Jiang Xiaoxiao was not polite at all.
How could she not know who Zhang Chaoyang is?
Zhang Chaoyang is very proud. It is probably because he let her suffer a loss last time and failed to poach her.
So he is unwilling to give in and still wants to get close to her.
Zhang Chaoyang was filled with anger at Jiang Xiaoxiao's words.
Is this Jiang Xiaoxiao still a woman?
Is she blind?
Don’t you take a look at who you are!
He is Zhang Chaoyang! With his looks and family background, how many people would be eager to pounce on him!
Didn’t you see those female educated youth surrounding him like they were full of energy?
But Jiang Xiaoxiao made him feel weak in her hands several times.
At first he thought Jiang Xiaoxiao was just playing hard to get, and was probably still having some feelings towards him.
I've seen a lot of people like this.
But who knew that the other party simply ignored him.
After this winter, when they met for the first time, he learned an unexpected news: Jiang Xiaoxiao was able to help the forest farm get food.
Although this is to exchange wood from the forest farm for food, but in the face of a disaster, how could the person who has the ability to accomplish such a thing possibly accomplish it if he doesn't have some connections at home?
Even if there are cadres in his family, it doesn't mean that he can get food whenever he asks for it.
In the days of material scarcity, everything had to be done with receipts and tickets.
Even if you are a cadre, you can't get food just by asking for it.
But Jiang Xiaoxiao actually did it. When she saw how much importance the director of the forest farm and the production team leader attached to it, she knew they were no joke.
Besides, seeing the room full of food, how could I not know that they had really done it.
In a few days, the train has already transported the food here, and I heard that there will be more.
He couldn't help but look at Jiang Xiaoxiao in front of him with a new respect. It seemed that the other person really looked down on him.
He was so anxious that he was scratching his head. He really wanted to know what kind of person Jiang Xiaoxiao was.
However, the other person didn't reveal anything. When he asked a question, he belittled himself and said he came from an ordinary working-class family.
How is that possible? Are you kidding me?
If all children from ordinary working-class families were so capable, he would also be willing to be a child from an ordinary family.
