Chapter 146 Admonition
"Wow, this is great, with so much time, we will definitely be able to integrate well here."
Liu Qianqian said in amazement, but Liu Meili was more pragmatic: "Captain, if we want to settle down better, do we need to prepare anything else?"
Wang Yuanchao thought for a moment and said, "Did you know that we educated youth received a 35-jin grain subsidy every month during our first year in the countryside?"
"Know."
"Ah, is there such a thing? Why didn't I know about it?"
"I don't know. Is there such a thing?"
Wang Yuanchao noticed that some people did not know about the subsidy for going to the countryside.
They knew that their subsidies for going to the countryside were taken by those who registered for them. There were many such cases during the first year of compulsory going to the countryside. Soon the government would come up with new policies for the loophole that anyone who registered could get the subsidy, such as the subsidy must be received in person, the educated youth must receive it at the production brigade after going to the countryside, and so on.
So Wang Yuanchao said directly: "Since some people don't know, let me tell you about the state's subsidies for educated youth who go to the countryside. If you sign up to go to the countryside, the government will give each educated youth a subsidy of 200 yuan.
In the first year, each educated youth received a grain subsidy of 35 kilograms per month, and they could also use their educated youth certificate to buy 5 kilograms of cotton for free at the commune’s supply and marketing cooperative.
Is everyone clear?"
"Oh my god, didn't my mom take my subsidy for going to the countryside? Wow, my mom only gave me 10 yuan when I went to the countryside. How can this be? How can I live in the countryside?"
"Woo woo woo, how can this be, how can this be."
Fan Zhaodi cried with despair on her face. She had been thinking about working more in the countryside and earning more food to send back to her parents to support her younger brother, but her parents ended up completely disregarding her life or death.
Wang Yuanchao's words were like a stone thrown into a pond, causing huge ripples among the educated youth.
There were cries and curses, and the scene was in chaos.
Wang Yuanchao just watched and was too lazy to comfort everyone, allowing these educated youth to make a lot of noise.
After a while, the scene gradually quieted down, and Wang Yuanchao continued: "Okay, everyone calm down, I will tell you the precautions first. First, you need to go to the captain later to get your food, otherwise you will go hungry.
Second, the educated youth site has a kitchen, but there are no cooking utensils. You need to quickly buy pots and pans and prepare firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea. Third, the educated youth site has private plots. You need to find villagers to exchange vegetable seeds and seedlings and grow your own vegetables. Otherwise, you can only spend money to buy vegetables from the villagers.
Fourth, the educated youth sites can raise one pig, two chickens, and three ducks. It is up to you to decide whether to raise them or not.
Well, if you want to settle down, I have already told you what you should pay attention to. You can discuss it later.
Does anyone have any other questions? "
Now that everyone knows they can go to get food, they just want to go quickly and have no time to attend the welcome party.
Wang Yuanchao was naturally happy to see this happen and stopped talking.
He Jianguo saw this and immediately asked, "Captain, I checked the room at the Youth Camp and there is no luggage for you. Excuse me, are you not living at the Youth Camp?"
Wang Yuanchao found that He Jianguo was very careful, so he said:
"That's right. I used the 200 yuan subsidy the government gave to educated youth to build a house in Hongqi Brigade and live with my wife and her family."
"Wow, how is it possible that you are married?"
"Yes, it's a little long. Judging from your age, you are probably not old enough to get married, right?"
"Oh my god, it's too long. Why did you get married so young? What a waste."
He Jianguo was shocked when he heard Wang Yuanchao's words. He didn't expect that he could build his own house and live alone in the countryside, so he quickly continued to ask:
"Captain, may I ask what I should pay attention to when building a house by myself?"
Wang Yuanchao was not surprised that He Jianguo asked this question. He Jianguo and Chen Aihua both came from good families, and Wang Yuanchao also wanted to make friends with them, so he said, "First, you need to ask the brigade to approve the homestead. You can ask Secretary Zeng for this matter. Once the village agrees to build you a separate house, that's all.
Then you just need to spend money to find someone to build the house. I found Hu Zhengwu from the brigade. If you want to build a house, you can find him. His craftsmanship is pretty good."
Although they had not been together for a long time, Chen Aihua regarded Wang Yuanchao as a fellow human being.
I just heard that Wang Yuanchao found a girl in the countryside to marry, and I didn’t understand why, so I asked:
"Captain, you are still so young, why are you in such a hurry to find a girl to marry in the countryside?
You don't plan to go back to the city anymore?"
Wang Yuanchao said to Chen Aihua meaningfully: "Because my parents died on the battlefield, I am the only one left in my family. Although I obeyed the call of the motherland and took the initiative to sign up to go to the countryside, I still want to continue the Wang family's lineage."
Chen Aihua looked at Wang Yuanchao in astonishment, and then gave He Jianguo a reassuring look.
I knew that Wang Yuanchao was the same type of person as me. As expected, I was right. How could an ordinary peasant cultivate such an outstanding person?
"It seems that the chief's wife must be very outstanding, otherwise the chief wouldn't be willing to marry her at such a young age."
"Well, although my wife is a local of the Red Flag Brigade, she is also an orphan of a martyr, so she is a good match for me. However, she is pregnant now, so it is not convenient for her to go out. I will introduce her to you all when there is a chance in the future."
Chen Aihua heard this, but before she could express her opinion, she heard the heart-breaking voice of the female educated youth next to her.
"Wow, this is too fast. She's pregnant already. Is she going to be a father at such a young age? This is such a shattered dream."
"Yeah, where can I find another handsome man like him? My heart is broken."
Wang Yuanchao didn't care about what the educated youth said. After everyone calmed down, he said, "We still have a lot of things to do today. We have to collect food and buy iron pots.
So let's end this welcome party here. I hope everyone can settle down as soon as possible. Finally, I would like to remind everyone: We are all educated youth trained by the country. I hope everyone will remember that the masses are the real heroes of our nation. I hope everyone will never forget who we educated youth study for, who we rely on, and who we are.
I hope that everyone can truly unite with the people, put aside our city dwellers’ identities, put aside our scholarly airs, and truly come from the masses and go to the masses.
Only in this way can we truly use our knowledge and abilities to help the rural people and truly help build a new socialist countryside.”
