Chapter 134 Someone Entrusts
While An Zhixia was busy with her brother's wedding, she also reported to the commune at a steady pace every day and slowly handed over the work at hand.
She knocked on the president's door with a stack of documents. After getting permission, she walked over with a smile, put the things in her hand in front of the person, and ordered tea from Secretary Xu without any hesitation.
The president put his work aside and looked at what she gave him first, going through it carefully, taking off his glasses, rubbing his temples and sighing, "Are you really ready to leave?"
"Well, all the projects of the agricultural and sideline products factory have been arranged. I have not intervened for several months. Now that I am gone, our commune will still become prosperous. These documents are some of the key development plans of the commune written by me. I believe that under the leadership of the president, Wuqi Commune will definitely become a national model commune," she said with a smile, "How is it, president, I have lived up to your expectations, right?"
"No," the president put down the documents, walked out of the desk, and sat down opposite her. "Not only did you live up to my expectations, you even exceeded them! If you want to leave, I won't ask you to stay. But I will make sure everyone remembers your contribution to the commune. This is your second home. Come visit often when you have time and see what our commune has become with your participation."
An Zhixia smiled and nodded, "Yes, President, I have completely handed over my work. Tomorrow is my brother's wedding. After the wedding, we will pack up and prepare to return to the city. We will not come to the commune anymore. I wish you a happy new year in advance!"
The president responded twice, "Good kids, happy New Year to you too. If it takes too much time to go back and forth, you can write more letters to each other to keep each other updated."
I personally escorted An Zhixia to the gate of the commune and saw her waving goodbye to everyone with a bright smile, including the security guard.
Everyone sighed and went back to work. Since the start of several projects in the agricultural and sideline factory, the staff in the commune have more work to do, and no longer spend their days drinking tea and reading newspapers. But no one complained about the hardship and tiredness. Instead, they worked very hard because the salary is no longer a fixed number for several years or even more than ten years. Instead, it is based on the original salary and adds full attendance bonuses, performance bonuses, and various subsidies. Even the welfare is no longer a small thing like a few ounces of meat, fruits and vegetables, but is directly allocated from the farm per person.
It can be said that as long as they work hard, their wages will definitely surpass those of workers in the provincial capital next year!
Therefore, they are particularly grateful to An Zhixia. Because of this little girl, they will be able to unify their personal values and social values, and their lives and work will have a purpose!
"Are you willing to let him go?" Uncle Yang San asked as he handed over a cigarette when he saw the president leaning against the door with no intention of leaving.
The president wiped his face, took it with a smile, took out a match from his pocket, lit it for Uncle Yang, then lit it for himself and took a deep puff before slowly saying, "It's because our commune and someone are reluctant to let him go. The little girl is young, but she is generous and careful. She didn't intend to stay in the commune for a long time from the beginning, but she made detailed plans for everything without hiding anything.
If it were you and I, Mr. Yang, we wouldn't be so selfless, right?
Just now she gave me a thick stack of proposals for the development of the commune, such as we need to build many primary and junior high schools, build roads, have our own standardized clinics, pull in electric wires, etc. These are long-term goals that need to be achieved one by one, and cannot be completed in two or three years.
But the cultural and spiritual life of the members cannot be delayed indefinitely. The literacy class must not only be held, but also be carried out without ambiguity! In addition, she has promised the members that each village will be equipped with a radio. Not only that, she also wrote that our commune will purchase several sets of equipment for playing movies, and strive to let the members have movies to watch every week.
The commune will also order various newspapers and periodicals for each village, and the village party secretary will lead everyone to study..."
Uncle Yang nodded continuously after hearing this, "I never thought that I would meet such an interesting little girl even when I am old." But then he frowned and sighed with regret, "She is capable of making trouble, but Kyoto is a place of deep water and fire. Without anyone to protect her, she can be broken even if she has wings."
"Don't you feel bad? She greets you four times a day and never forgets to give you a share of her rare things. I'm going to say something you don't want to hear, but how many of your grandchildren can catch up with her?"
Uncle Yang rolled his eyes at him. "Okay, I was wondering why you, a busy president, are standing at the old man's door sighing. So you want me to protect that girl? Did you have this idea from the beginning?"
"You have a sharp eye, can't you tell the difference between real and fake? Even if it's fake, who can persist for so long?" The president simply put away the worry on his face and said with a smile. "Besides, I really didn't say a word about you to her."
Uncle Yang touched his chin and hummed, "That's right. I returned to my hometown because I was tired of those people fighting for a little power. I didn't want to take care of my own incompetent young people. I just wanted to live a leisurely life. Well, after this girl messed it up, the commune began to wash away the rustic smell, and everyone kept up with the work like clockwork. Originally, there were only so many people coming and going in the commune, but now there are strangers coming in and out every day, which makes me dizzy.
It seems that I am not destined to enjoy a peaceful life. I should go back to Beijing and watch over those bastards so that they don’t run around and cause trouble.”
The president agreed seriously, "That's right. You should be enjoying your family life now. Playing chess and drinking tea with your old friends is better than being a lonely old man guarding the gate."
"Go do your work, old man! I'll take the bus back tomorrow," Uncle Yang pushed him away unhappily. "By the way, don't forget to take photos and send them to me from time to time. After all, I am also a veteran who witnessed the development of Wuqi Commune!"
The president responded with a muffled laugh. Everyone knows who. Old Yang loves hustle and bustle. He came back to revisit his hometown because he missed it. After seeing the unique hustle and bustle of the countryside, he couldn't move away. His descendants came to persuade him one by one, but he refused to listen and was actually prepared to become the gatekeeper of the commune even without any wages.
Originally, Old Yang had had enough of the lively spring and was about to leave, but then An Zhixia came and another unique income-generating drama was staged throughout the commune, and he became reluctant to move.
In fact, he didn't need to go into detail. With Old Yang's temper, knowing that An Zhixia had left, he couldn't help but go back to Beijing to see another excitement. Perhaps, An Tianjiao was the spokesperson for restlessness.
Sometimes he even suspected that Yang Laosheng was of the wrong gender, but now he had completed the Yang family's entrustment of persuading people to go back, and also completed someone's task of finding a talisman for their sweetheart. Now he could devote himself to the development of the commune!
