After Mu Jingxun left, the team did not have much to do because the autumn harvest had already passed.
The weather is getting colder. It is estimated that in half a month, all the farm work in the brigade will be finished.
It is already early October. By mid-to-late October, especially into November, it will be very cold in Liaoning Province.
It is estimated that it will snow in mid or late November.
Before the snow falls in winter, everyone has to make preparations for winter.
For example, before winter, firewood needs to be prepared, and pickled vegetables need to be pickled in advance.
Generally, before it snows, people go to the mountains to pick up some mountain products.
There is a severe shortage of food these days. There are free mountain products on the mountain. If we bring some back, it can help to alleviate some of the food consumption.
Fruits like pine nuts, chestnuts, fungus, etc. in the mountains are all very good substitutes for staple food. If you pick them up and cannot eat them all at home, you can secretly take them to the county town to sell them for money.
Nowadays, everyone waits until the farm work of the production team is completely finished before going into the mountains to collect mountain products and store firewood.
Because the weather has cooled down, Jiangli is a bit busier than before.
Many elderly people in the production team suffered from back and leg problems when the weather got colder.
Jiang Lido prepared some ointment and asked them to take it back and apply it.
Combined with Jiang Li's massage, the elderly people in this team are now feeling much better than before and are no longer tortured by pain all day long.
With the educated youth Xiao Jiang, they no longer suffer so much in their health.
Many children in the brigade have caught colds and coughs recently, so Jiang Li also prescribed medicine for them. As long as they take her medicine, their condition will get better quickly.
Soon, a week had passed since Mu Jingxun and Bai Zirong left the Victory Production Brigade.
The communication method of this era is very inconvenient. It is nothing like in later times where we can make phone calls at any time.
The brigade has no electricity at the moment, so it is impossible to contact them by phone.
Jiang Li waited for another two days and received a letter from Mu Jingxun in Beijing, informing her that he had arrived in Beijing safely and asked her to take good care of herself in the Victory Brigade. He also sent her some bedding and cotton clothes for the winter from Beijing.
On the same day that Jiang Li received Mu Jingxun's letter, the brigade also received great news: the county planned to provide electricity to the Shengli Brigade.
The fact that Shengli Brigade was able to have electricity had a lot to do with Jiang Li.
After Jiang Li decided to join the special department, the leaders above felt it was inconvenient to contact Jiang Li, and they had to get in touch with her by phone through the brigade in the countryside.
This way, if I need to contact Jiang Li for something, I can call him at any time.
In order to make a phone call, there must be electricity, so the central leaders contacted Secretary Xu and asked him to make arrangements to provide electricity to the Shengli Production Brigade.
Nowadays, there are very few production teams with electricity. Now that Shengli Production Team has electricity, all the team members are very happy.
Having electricity makes life much more convenient. You can turn on electric lights at night, which is much brighter than kerosene lamps.
The Shengli Production Brigade was one of the many production teams under Anfeng County, and its production was mediocre. Therefore, the members of the brigade felt that the electricity supply to their Shengli Production Brigade was mostly due to Jiang Li's help.
However, they could not explain why the county suddenly chose their brigade and provided them with benefits.
The only explanation is that the educated youth Xiao Jiang made great contributions to the higher-ups, and Secretary Xu remembered her.
When the county had quotas for providing electricity to the production teams below, Secretary Xu would give Jiang Li's face and provide electricity to their Shengli Production Team.
