60s researcher

"Drinking can make you smarter." Lu Jian didn't know how to explain the difference between milk and breast milk, so he could only give an answer at random, and then hurriedly talked about other things.

"Mom, I bought two pieces of cloth. Look, I'll make a suit for you and dad. There are also shoes. I bought Jiefang shoes, which are your size, but you still have to try them. And this meat, I was lucky enough to meet acquaintances today, and all I bought were pork belly." Lu Jian finished speaking in one breath, without giving Lu's mother a chance to speak at all.

"No, I said..."

"Mom, where is my dad? Is he busy recently?" Seeing that Lu's mother was about to talk again, Lu Jian hurriedly asked Lu's father.

"Your father, I don't know if he's busy or not. Anyway, he doesn't see anyone all day." Lu's mother nodded his forehead in a funny way, and followed his words to turn to Lu's father.

"Oh, mother, should I make dinner?" Lu Jian was a little hungry. He didn't eat at noon. He walked around the supply and marketing cooperative and rode for a long time. Really hungry.

"Did you not eat at noon?" Mother Lu immediately saw that something was wrong.

"Hey." Lu Jian smiled embarrassedly.

"You son of a bitch." Mother Lu patted him hard on the back, and quickly picked up the meat and went to the kitchen.

Lu Jian carried everything on the table into Lu's mother's room, and then went to the kitchen.

In the kitchen, Lu's mother is cooking. A few green peppers are served with half a bowl of sliced ​​meat, and the kitchen is full of fragrance.Lu Jian swallowed, the spiciness was really refreshing.

"It'll be ready right away. The rice is in the crockpot. You can fill a bowl first." Lu's mother pointed to the big crockpot on the side. There is a shortage of supplies, and there is at most one iron pot in the family. Crockpots are used for cooking.

Lu Jian took the bowl, lifted the lid, and filled a bowl, which contained a little rice mixed with taro porridge.Except for harvesting grain, dry rice can be eaten when plowing the land, and porridge cooked with taro, sweet potato or corn on other days.

When Lu Jian put the porridge on the table in the main room, Mother Lu also came out with chili fried meat, and put it directly in front of Lu Jian.

Lu Jian was not too polite, and started to eat directly. There was probably half a catty of meat in the chili fried pork, and the chopsticks were full of meat.And Mother Lu poured him a glass of water, and went into the kitchen to continue cooking. Now that the weather is too hot, Mother Lu salted a pound of meat and bones with salt, and the rest of the meat and ribs were cooked. , otherwise it will be useless tomorrow.

Seeing that he was full, Lu picked up the water and drank slowly.

"Really, why is it so late, no one replied." When Mother Lu came out, no one replied,

Only Lu Jian was sitting in the main room.

"Grandma, grandpa called for a meeting at the grain drying farm, and everyone has to go." She was looking out of the yard as she spoke, when suddenly Wen Tao, Wen and Wu came running from a distance, and shouted loudly across the yard.

"What kind of meeting is it?" Mother Lu was a little curious and greeted her.

"I don't know, my father asked me to call you, saying that everyone has to go." The two children were panting, and they should have run all the way back.

"Okay, what are you doing so fast? Look at your face, it's so red." Lu's mother looked at the two children, her heart ached so badly, Lu Jian hurriedly brought a basin of water and asked Lu's mother to wipe their faces.

When they packed up and came to the grain drying field, almost everyone had arrived. The entire Zhenglu Brigade had about 500 households. It used to be Zhenglu Village, and the village's surnames were Zheng Helu, and later it was organized into a brigade.Now more than 500 households are gathered here, most of them are talking in a low voice, and the whole grain drying field is noisy.

"Quiet, everyone is quiet, haven't everyone eaten yet? They speak so vigorously." After a while, Father Lu came out with a few brigade cadres.Father Lu held a loudspeaker in his hand, and the whole grain drying field was filled with his voice.

The captain's prestige in the team is still very high, everyone smiled and fell silent after a while.But Lu Jian actually saw Qi Changzheng behind Father Lu.

"There is something to call everyone here today. Don't we grow a lot of sugar cane? Every time we sell it directly to the purchasing station at a low price. What the team means is that we directly build a sugar factory and process the sugar cane directly into sugar. Do you agree?" Father Lu said the matter directly into the loudspeaker.

"Captain, will we be arrested if we sell it illegally?" A young man stood up from the crowd and walked directly to the front.

"Are we really capable?"

"That's right, that's right, someone from the next village was caught selling eggs and was taken to the police station."

"That's right, you won't arrest us and take us to the police station?"

"that is…"

Seeing someone stand up, the voices in the crowd suddenly increased.

"No, we are doing collective management in the name of the brigade, encouraged by the state, and creating wealth for the country." Father Lu hurriedly reassured the team members that this matter has been consulted with the higher-ups, and even the approval slip has been taken. Once you get it, naturally there will be no problem.

"Really?" The person who came out first continued to ask, still a little uncertain. "Of course, we have already obtained the approval note above, allowing us to open a sugar processing factory." Said Lu's father glanced at Qi Changzheng behind him, then took out a piece of paper from his pocket and unfolded it, standing in front of him People hurried over to have a look.

"What are you guys doing so close together? I don't know any big characters, and I think I can understand them." Father Lu was a little unhappy when he saw that the crowd in front of him were all rough people who didn't know any big characters.

"Hey, Captain, I still know two characters, and I know my own name." Someone below immediately became unhappy.

"Okay, don't talk nonsense, I'm still waiting for dinner."

"That's right, the joint approval document of the commune and the township government has been stamped on it." At this moment, finally a few literate people pushed forward.

"That's true."

"Really? Then we can be workers?"

"Yes, yes, our brigade's own factory is of course recruiting people from the village."

"Captain, how many people do you want to recruit?"

As soon as they heard that there was no problem at all, everyone started to care about work.

"The factory hasn't been built yet, so what's the arrangement?" Father Lu was also almost dizzy by this group of people.

"Now we need to build a factory first, and then buy equipment. The brigade means to build a new factory directly at the east end of the village, which is at the bottom of the river, so it will not affect the water use in our village."

"Okay, no problem." The people below agreed loudly.

"About the money, the village will calculate it. In the first half of this year, the brigade's total income is 810, [-] cents. The money will not be divided, and it will be directly invested in the factory. At the end of the year, we will directly share dividends proportionally. , do you have any opinions?"

Father Lu directly mentioned the most important thing today.

As soon as this was mentioned, there was a moment of silence below.

"I said, do you want to be a farmer for the rest of your life? Are you looked down upon if you want a son to find a wife, and bullied if a daughter is married? Are people in the city afraid to look for in-laws? With this factory, people in our village will have the opportunity to be workers. , as long as we do a good job, the sugar factory will be expanded and there will be no jobs in the future?" Father Lu asked a few questions in a row.

"Captain, I agree, I don't pay any money." Several families immediately stood up, and their families had sons and daughters of marriageable age.

"Captain, we all agree." Then there were voices of agreement below.

"Okay, if everyone has no objections, let each family send a representative to get their fingerprints. As long as there is one household that doesn't get their fingerprints, our factory will be closed." Father Lu asked the brigade cadres behind to take their notebooks to Get the team members below to sign.

As soon as they heard that the factory would not operate unless the fingerprints were pressed, everyone became active.

After watching a scene quietly, Lu Jian'an still had various thoughts in his mind. Now it seems that the male protagonist is harmless to their place. Judging from his relationship with the children today, he is full of goodwill towards this place. of.Now I am not afraid of trouble to find projects for the brigade, and take the initiative to change the lives of people in this place.From his point of view, this project has low investment cost, low technical requirements, and quick results, which is very suitable for the current Zheng Lu brigade.

"Your father is really serious. He won't reveal any news about such a big event, but he can do it." Lu's mother complained, but her eyes were full of affection when she looked at Lu's father.

"Mom, dad is really good, and everyone in the team believes in him." Lu Jian felt a little emotional, it is not easy to carry so many hopes on him in this era.

"Hehe, your father just bluffs people with his face." Mother Lu smiled nonchalantly.

Amidst the quarrel, the fingerprints were finally pressed, and the crowd dispersed in the grain drying field, and there were only a few families left.

The Lu family also stood together. The eldest brother and the second brother seemed a little embarrassed when they saw Lu Jian, so they said hello and stood aside. After all, it was also a study, and only the fourth brother entered alone, and the number of places was only four. Two, unfortunately they didn't even make the top ten.This time, the two sister-in-laws are also quite peaceful, they seem to be quiet and not acting like monsters anymore.Each of the three sisters-in-law was holding a daughter, and for a moment there were only the sounds of two little boys running around chasing each other.

After a while, Lu's father came over and saw that Lu Jian didn't manage it. It should be Qi Changzheng who told him.

"Let's go, let's all go home! It's time to eat." Lu's father didn't say much, and walked in the front alone. Lu's mother hurried to catch up, pulled his sleeve, and seemed to whisper something.

Several brothers and sisters-in-law followed a little farther behind, and seemed to be talking about small things at home.

Lu Jian was a little behind, and held the hands of the two nephews to prevent them from running around. The sister-in-law looked back from time to time, and saw that their uncles and nephews were getting along very well, with a smile on their eyes.

Lu Jian looked at the road ahead, answering children's questions from time to time, feeling vaguely that this should be what a family should look like, maybe parting, maybe complaining, but always walking on the same road, no matter how much distance there is in the middle , who will never be left behind.
