Chapter 408 Liang Jun reports
Director Ren personally asked someone to organize a large truck to help Kong Dongcheng transport the peanuts out.
Captain Liu even called several people to help, some to lift the scales, some to check the numbers, and then Ding Shiqing wrote down the weights and loaded the bags onto the truck.
Several people were busy until noon before they finally weighed out all the weight, which was more than 2,700 kilograms of peanuts.
Liang Xinyue knew that this figure was not large, but if several villages planted it next time, the quantity would be large.
Kong Dongcheng paid directly in cash. He went out to make a purchase and had money with him.
He didn't expect that things would be handled so perfectly on the first day.
But there is only one train passing through Xihuai every day, so he has to wait for the next train and contact the people on the railway here first.
However, Director Ren told him that he could rest assured about this. Director Ren helped him to make the contact. It was not easy for them to load such a large amount of goods onto the bus, and they had to tow it first.
Xihuai County is not big, but there is only one station here in the area of nearly 400 miles, so the time spent here is actually quite long.
Because this trip has arrived here, it is just the right time to add water to the car. Therefore, it is no problem to check in the luggage here.
Director Ren and his friends did not stay for dinner. They packed up and drove back to the county town. Then Director Ren and Liang Xinyue treated Kong Dongcheng to dinner at a state-owned restaurant.
In this era, buyers are walking gods of wealth. If you want them to buy your goods, you have to get closer to them.
Liang Xinyue made some promises, and so did Director Ren, at least to ensure that he wouldn't have any trouble with transportation. Because no matter how far it is from Shanghai, this train goes directly there. This is a good thing.
Kong Dongcheng did not expect that these two directors would be so active in winning him over. When he left, Liang Xinyue even gave him some local specialties.
Kong Dongcheng had a good sleep in the guesthouse in the afternoon. Anyway, the goods had been transported to the railway station and received by the people on the platform. They just had to wait for loading tomorrow.
Liang Xinyue didn't expect the peanuts to be sold so quickly. She took the money back and gave it to Captain Liu, asking them to do something about it.
They cannot use this money indiscriminately, and if they want to buy new plastic film, they will have to spend more money.
And it might cost some more money to buy things to prepare for the winter.
Captain Liu nodded. Recently, all the men, women and children in the village have started to make straw mats. Besides earning ten cents for each one, they also want to make more. Then they will have to repair the canal. Then they will not be able to make these when they go out to work.
After Liang Xinyue sold the peanuts, the events in Xinshui Village began to repeat themselves. She and several geological experts from the city began an exploration journey, going out early and returning late every day.
Although they were all in the county seat, every time they arrived at a place, they would check the underground conditions and terrain of the place, and analyze how to distribute these among the several connected villages.
The progress was not fast. There was a cemetery where the canal was planned along the road. People from this village had to be asked to move the old man's grave.
Fortunately, people in this era are easy to talk to. Of course, it is the people's unconditional trust in the government that makes them cooperate so well.
Liang Xinyue goes out early and comes back late every day, sometimes it is dark when she comes back.
Tiantian no longer reported to the Agricultural Bureau.
All the invited geologists were accustomed to this kind of field work, but Liang Xinyue had lost a lot of weight after running around with them for four days.
But tomorrow is Monday again. When I came back today, I told several geologists:
"I may have something to do tomorrow, so we'll take a day off, and you can also take a good rest in the city for a day."
The two originally came from the city, so tonight the car sent Liang Xinyue home and then sent them back to the city. If they had a day off, they still wanted to go home to see their wives and children.
On this day, Liang Xinyue was going to report to the Armed Forces Department with her brother and sister-in-law.
When it was time to go to work in the morning, Liang Xinyue first went to the Agricultural Bureau to report in. Then she said something to Director Ren and went downstairs.
Liang Jun and Zhou Xiaoying were waiting for her downstairs.
Liang Xinyue led them through an alley, which was the street where the Armed Forces Department was located.
Fortunately, everyone here recognized him, so they went in directly.
Minister Gu had just sat down in the office when he heard a knock on the door:
"Come in."
It was Liang Xinyue and the others who came in:
"Minister Gu."
"Oh, it's Xinyue. No, now you should call her Deputy Director Liang."
Liang Xinyue smiled and said:
"You should just call me Xinyue. In my heart, you and Sister Liao are my brothers and sisters, so it would be better if you call me Xinyue."
Minister Gu smiled and said:
"Okay then. You guys take a seat first, Xiaoshi will be here soon."
Xiaoshi is Minister Gu's secretary, which is equivalent to an orderly.
As they were talking, a boy came in with two water bottles. It was Xiao Shi.
As soon as he came in, he saw Liang Xinyue. He recognized Liang Xinyue:
"Hey, Deputy Director Liang is here. I'll make you some tea right away."
As he said this, he put down the water bottle and started looking for a cup to make tea. Liang Xinyue said hurriedly:
"Xiao Shi, no need, just make sure you soak Minister Gu's tea. We'll just sit for a while and then leave."
Xiao Shi looked at Minister Gu, who smiled and said:
"Pour some boiled water for Deputy Director Liang. She doesn't like tea. Also, go get Chief Steward Qiu."
"Yes."
Xiao Shi quickly poured a glass of boiled water for Liang Xinyue and the other two, then turned and left. After a while, he led a chubby man in:
"Report."
"Come in."
The person who came in was Chief Steward Qiu.
Minister Gu introduced him to Liang Xinyue, then pointed at Liang Jun and said:
"These two are the two comrades I told you about last time. From today on, they are your subordinates. When assigning them tasks, be careful not to assign this couple separately."
Their quartermaster also has another task. Among the people he manages, some do not work in the armed forces department; some work in towns and villages.
Minister Gu meant that he should not arrange work separately for the couple.
Chief Steward Qiu had received a special reminder from Minister Gu before, so he naturally knew what Minister Gu meant.
"Yes, I will pay attention. It just so happens that we need to arrange for someone to prune the branches in the garden of our armed forces department. Only Old Huang is doing it alone and it is a bit difficult for him to handle it. Why not ask this comrade to take over Old Wang's work, and this female comrade will be responsible for cleaning up the fallen leaves on the ground of the entire armed forces department."
Minister Gu nodded and said:
"This is a good arrangement. Let Lao Huang take care of him. He may grow crops, but he can't grow flowers, plants or trees."
