Counterattack in the chronology

Chapter 66 Wheat Harvesting (1)

Gu Lichun said in surprise: "You are well-informed?"

With that said, he turned to Lidong: "You told him?"

Lidong scratched his head and looked confused: "I just told him for fun, but he got angry unexpectedly."

He looked at Chen Yu while talking: "What's so annoying about my brother calling me a kitten? You're not a mouse."

Chen Yu gave Lidong a hard look, and Gu Lichun was suddenly in a good mood. The names Chen Xiaoyu, Gu Xiaomao, and Second Grandma were really good and well-qualified.Chen Yu only felt that the smile on Gu Lichun's face was a bit dazzling.

He still wanted to stab him a few more times, but seeing Chen Jie and Zhang Yan beside him, he had no choice but to give up temporarily.He took Lidong to see the little yellow dog.

Seeing that Chen Jie seemed to have something to say, Gu Lichun found an excuse to let her into his room to talk.He didn't close the door well, so he left the door ajar, and the two sat at the desk and talked quietly.

Chen Yu looked at the dog for a while and looked at the door of Gu Lichun's room for a while, always paying attention to the movement inside.

Gu Lichun asked Chen Jie softly: "Just now, I saw you looking angry, what's the matter? Did you quarrel with the educated youth?"

Chen Jie shook her head. Although her mood was much calmer than before, she was still angry when she thought about it, "It's not that Gu Jingzhe, I have never seen such a shameless and self-righteous person."

Gu Lichun looked surprised: "What did he do again?"

Chen Jie didn't hide anything, and said everything like a bamboo tube pouring beans: "I happened to pass by his house yesterday when I was returning to the educated youth spot. When he saw me, he said he was coming to see me, that he had something to tell me. I thought he might have something to convey to Jiang Mu, so I agreed. I never thought that he came to me to ask me to marry him, and said that he already knew about Liu San and that I had such a reputation. , I won’t be able to marry a good man in the future, he doesn’t despise me. Pooh.”

Gu Lichun also wanted to pooh Gu Jingzhe, this was not just a matter of taking advantage of the fire, but also a matter of fraudulent marriage.

Thinking of this, Gu Lichun felt that there was no need to hide it for him, so he said directly: "There is one thing you may not know, that Gu Jingzhe actually likes men, and he and Jiang Mu like each other."

Chen Jie was taken aback, and it took him a while to react: "I didn't even think of this level, I thought they were just good friends."

After she finished speaking, she began to scold the two of them again: "He likes men and wants to marry me. What does he use me for? A shield?"

Gu Lichun added: "It's not only a shield, but also a stepping stone. He may imagine using your family's power to get back up again. After all, since uncle stepped down, his life is getting worse day by day."

Chen Jie sneered and said, "That's a beautiful idea. My father doesn't even help his own daughter. Would he help him?"

Gu Lichun couldn't say, but in the original book, Jiang Mu and Gu Jingzhe did it.

The more Chen Jie thought about it, the angrier she became, and she said, "I can't just let him go, I want to expose and report them."

Gu Lichun rationally stopped him: "Calm down, you don't have evidence now, how can you report it? Besides, Gu Jingzhe already knows about Liu San, I'm afraid that he will come to death and tell you about you."

When Chen Jie heard this, she really calmed down a lot.

Gu Lichun went on to say: "Don't be in a hurry, revenge can be done slowly and laid out slowly."

Chen Jie nodded in agreement: "Indeed, this matter can't be rushed. I'll think of a way."

After the two talked for a while, Chen Jie's expression had completely calmed down, and she went out to find Zhang Yan and Xiao Man.

Gu Lichun also walked out of the room, just when Lidong was called away by Lixia, Gu Lichun went to grunt the little yellow dog. The fur on the little milk dog was soft and fleshy, and it was very comfortable to touch.The little yellow dog was very comfortable being hugged by Hulu, and he closed his eyes and whimpered.

Chen Yu suddenly said out of nowhere: "Actually, a cat feels better to the touch than a dog."

Gu Lichun just let out an oh, but didn't respond.

Chen Yu blinked his eyes, slightly confused: he didn't realize that I was alluding to him.

Gu Lichun was not in the mood to argue with him about these verbal tricks, he was thinking about how to go back and lie to Deng Chang and Secretary Zhu.

Chen Jie and Gu Lichun were going back to the farm in the afternoon, and Tian Sanhong and Second Grandma packed him another big bag of food as usual.

Before Gu Lichun left, he asked his younger siblings to take care of the house, and he would come back after the wheat harvest.He also left some money for Tian Sanhong: "Mother, the wheat harvest is very tiring, you cut some meat, more nutrition, don't waste money."

Tian Sanhong said: "Mother knows, don't worry about it, eat more good food."

The two waved goodbye to everyone. After leaving Gujia Village, the car pedaled quickly and arrived at the farm in more than an hour.

Everyone in the pig farm and Dahei Erhei came out to greet her as usual, especially Lu Mingfei who ran all the way over and asked Chen Jie with aggrieved lips: "Sister, where did you go secretly to play?"

Chen Jie bent down and hugged Ming Fei, and said with a smile, "My sister went to see a friend, and I will take you there next time."

Zhao Gao came up to him and asked, "Brother Gu, how is the situation here?"

"Very good, it's still the same. The pig farm hasn't been doing well for the past two days, right?"

"No, it's still the same. The little pigs are growing fast, and this year's Chinese New Year will definitely surprise everyone again."

The two were talking, Meng Nianqun greeted him with a warm smile, naturally took the burden from Gu Lichun's hand, and took it to the kitchen.Sun Houyu was also on the sidelines watching the situation, and seeing the opportunity, he stepped forward to talk: "Brother Gu, you are back."

Gu Lichun smiled at Sun Houyu, and asked kindly: "Xiao Sun, how are you adapting these days?"

Seeing Gu Lichun's amiable face, Sun Houyu was a little flattered, and quickly smiled and said: "It's a good adaptation, everyone is fine."

Gu Lichun said to Zhao Gao: "Xiao Sun has passed the rookie period, and I will follow you in the future. Our agriculture and animal husbandry department, no, is short of talents in the entire five fields. We must make the best use of our talents."

Zhao Gao glanced at Sun Houyu, frowned, and reluctantly accepted.Sun Houyu was a little happy in his heart, did he accept him into the small group?From now on, he must perform well.

Gu Lichun saw that it was still early and he could do something, so he said, "Zhao Gao, go find Wu Fatty later, drive a tractor, and bring back some branches and trunks they don't want; Take out the thatch and mats. We will go to the wheat field to build a pergola when we have free time these days. I saw that some places are far away from the woods and there is no shelter. We will build a few pergola for our own convenience in the future. It's convenient for everyone."

Zhao Gao asked: "Is this a matter of logistics management? Do you want to make a report to Sister Bai and the others?"

Gu Lichun said: "You forgot that I am the assistant to the field manager now, and I can decide on such a small matter."

Zhao Gao smiled and said, "That's right, I almost forgot."

Gu Lichun patted Zhao Gao on the shoulder: "I will mention your matter after the wheat is harvested. The next month is your time to perform."

Zhao Gao was overwhelmed with emotion.He didn't delay any longer, and drove a broken tractor with red paint off, all the way to the forest farm, and with the help of Wu Pang, he pulled a cart of wood and seven or eight tree stumps back.The wood is used to build a pergola, and the stump can be used as a chair when it is polished.

While it was still early in the day, Gu Lichun asked someone to pull the wood and thatch, bring a large bundle of hemp rope and tools, and sprinted all the way to the wheat field.

They started to build the first pergola first. They had built it several times in the pig farm, and now they are familiar with it. They built it very quickly, and they built one every other way.When they were concentrating on building the fourth arbor, they suddenly heard a loud voice from behind: "Xiao Gu, what are you doing?"

When everyone turned around and saw that it was Deng Chang, Zhao Gao and Sun Houyu were unavoidably at a loss.

Gu Lichun said with a smile: "Deng Chang, I think this wheat field is too far away from the woods. When the wheat is harvested, there is no shade for everyone to rest their feet or for someone to suffer from heatstroke. Let's build a few sheds while we have time."

Seeing that the materials they used were simple and easy to find, and the shed was built well and quickly, Deng Chang couldn't help but nodded in approval: "Okay, you are very thoughtful."

Deng Chang glanced at Zhao Gao, Sun Houyu and the others, and said, "Let your partners do the rest of the work, and accompany me to look at the wheat."

Gu Lichun was thinking about talking about the rain, so he responded readily, "Okay."

The two left the spacious tractor road and walked along the narrow field path to the depths of the wheat field.

At this time, the wheat has begun to mature, the stalks have turned from green to yellow-green, the ears are plump, and the heavy heads are lowered.Boundless waves of wheat rushed to the horizon. Under the slanting sun, the wheat field shone with a beautiful golden light, and the breeze blew past and made rustling noises.

Gu Lichun's heart widened inexplicably, and he felt refreshed.

He smiled and said, "This year is a good year."

Deng Chang also sighed with emotion: "It is indeed a bumper year. I like this kind of harvest scene. When I changed jobs, I was supposed to be assigned to the government office, but I just like the farm, so I insisted on coming here. At that time, there were many places in Honghe Farm. It's all wasteland, and there are still wolves and wild boars here in our five games."

Gu Lichun took over and said: "I also like farms, I think it has the convenience of the city, but also retains the idyllic scenery of the countryside, which is completely in line with the propaganda that says 'integration of industry and agriculture, integration of urban and rural areas, conducive to production, and convenient for life'. And we have a combination of mental and physical labor on our farm.”

Deng Chang looked at Gu Lichun quietly for a while, and said with emotion: "Sometimes, when I talk to you, I will forget your age."

Gu Lichun said seriously: "Deng Chang, I said earlier that I am mentally mature."

Deng Chang was noncommittal.

With his hands behind his back, he continued to walk deep into Maihai, stopping to check the growth of the wheat.

He suddenly asked, "Little Gu, do you know how to tell if the wheat is ripe? Do you know how ripe it is for harvesting?"

Is this to test him on the spot?Gu Lichun stepped forward without fear, pointed to the wheat and said: "Whether the wheat is ripe or not depends on the grain, the color, and whether the straw is straight. Look at this tree in Dengchang, the grain is not full enough, the color Yellowish with greenish tints, it is not yet mature, and there is still juice when you pinch it with your fingers, which is called milk ripening; this piece of wheat grains is like a candle, very hard to pinch, and the stalks are also straight, this is called wax ripening. This one is most suitable for harvesting; the other one is the mature period, which is not yet available in the wheat field. After the wheat enters the mature period, if it is not harvested in time, the nutrients in the wheat grains will go to the stalks, and the weight of the wheat grains will decrease. , affecting the yield per mu.”

Deng Chang nodded in satisfaction: "That's right, you even know this."

Gu Lichun had no choice but to remind: "Deng Chang, I am a poor and lower-middle peasant, and I have been dealing with farmland since I was a child."

Deng Chang paused for a moment before saying, "When I talk to you, I will also forget that you were born as a poor and lower-middle peasant."

Gu Lichun hastily corrected him: "Deng Chang, you can forget my age, but you can't forget my origin." These days, the emphasis is on being upright and young, and the poor and lower-middle peasants quarrel with confidence, the poorer the more justified.Deng Chang smiled but did not answer.

Gu Lichun naturally picked up what he wanted to say, "Dengchang, our five farms are located in the south of the farm, and the wheat may mature a few days earlier than in the north. I think we can harvest earlier this year. Trouble."

Deng Chang's sharp eyes stared at Gu Lichun: "Oh, you can even read the clouds and know the weather?"

Gu Lichun hurriedly said modestly: "I understand a little bit, am I going home? I chatted with the old man in the village for a while, you know, although the old man has no education, he has gone through a lot of things, has experience, and has old people. Looking at this year's situation, the wheat harvest may catch up with the rainy season. Isn't there a folk saying called "May [-]th, Master Guan sharpens the knife", and Master Guan sharpens the knife to indicate that it will rain. What's more, the wheat harvest happens to be eargrass Before and after solar terms, it also loves to rain at this time of year. I’m not sure if the old man’s forecast is accurate, anyway, the head of our production team said that our village will harvest earlier this year.”

Deng Chang didn't answer directly, but remained silent for a while, before he said cautiously: "In the wheat harvest season, any weather may be encountered. The comrades at the weather station will pay special attention to the weather changes in the busy season, and the superiors also attach great importance to it. However, we should be careful. There is no land. In addition, we have to discuss it with everyone, and there is a time limit for early harvesting. If you harvest too early, the wheat production will also decrease.”

Gu Lichun understands this: "It's not good to be too early or too late, so we must grasp the timing of harvesting."

They inspected several wheat fields in a row, and the maturity of the wheat was different, some were in the milk ripening stage, and some were about to enter the wax ripening stage.

These wheat fields are of different sizes. Some of them are a large piece, which is suitable for harvesting by combine harvesters. Some fields have irregular terrain and narrow roads, so machines cannot enter at all, and these fields can only be harvested by hand.

Deng Chang took out the notebook he carried with him and jotted down a few notes. These fields were to be divided into land numbers, and after the land numbers were divided, red flags or other signs had to be planted.

Deng Chang was swiping and taking notes, and Gu Lichun also took out a small notebook to jot down flashing thoughts.

Looking at Gu Lichun's actions, Deng Chang couldn't help laughing, he got into work quite quickly.

They walked slowly here, while Zhao Gao, Sun Houyu and the others had already set up a pergola and were leaning against the tractor waiting for them to pass.

Gu Lichun invited Deng Chang to take the car back together. He said that he would take a walk and let them go first. Gu Lichun struggled for a while, thinking that it was not good to leave the leader behind, so he had to let Zhao Gao and the others go back first, and he accompanied them. Dengchang walked back, it was not far anyway, the weather was cool, and the wheat fields were spectacular, so it was good to take a walk.

They took a walk from sunset to moonrise. The silvery white moonlight shone on the vast and boundless wheat fields, and there was a strange beauty.

It was only then that Deng Chang noticed that their walking route was a bit long, so he said apologetically, "I was used to walking long distances when I was a soldier, but I forgot about you."

Gu Lichun cheered up and said, "Fortunately, because of the beautiful scenery, the fatigue has been relieved."

Deng Zhang joked solemnly: "It's a pity that the person is wrong, if it were your partner, you would not be tired."

Gu Lichun: "..." What if the leader's joke is not funny?

He arrogantly insisted not to laugh, and took the joke: "Deng Chang, you are joking, it feels refreshing, I am refreshed now."

It was past eight o'clock when they walked back to the pig farm.

Zhao Gao, Wu Fat and the others looked at Gu Lichun with sympathy. It turns out that it is not easy to be a celebrity around the leader.

Chen Jie and Meng Nianqun left a meal for Gu Lichun, Gu Lichun politely invited Deng Chang to eat together, Deng Chang saw that the food was obviously not enough, just about to refuse, he heard Sun Houyu say: "Deng Chang, you should stay here to eat, There is no food in the cafeteria right now. We still have food in the kitchen, Xiao Meng, go and cook two dishes."

Meng Nianqun turned around and went to the kitchen to cook, Deng Zhang said, "Okay, I'll have another meal with you."

While waiting for the meal, Gu Lichun reported his work plan to Deng Chang, and by the way, tested his scope of power and responsibility, what he could do and what he couldn't.

Deng Chang didn't say it clearly, but the meaning is still the same. He is a leader who dares to take responsibility. Gu Lichun must do well what he ordered. Gu Lichun can also do what he can't think of, but it is beneficial to the wheat harvest and the farm. Apply for a report in advance for major matters; for minor matters, you can decide by yourself.For example, Deng Chang once again praised the construction of a pergola.

They were talking, and Sun Houyu and Wu Pang started to serve the dishes.

The first dish is fried cabbage with lard, the second dish is fried lettuce with shredded pork, followed by two dishes of vegetarian fried vegetables, a cold cucumber, and Gu Lichun brought from home, deep-fried broad beans and marinated chicken feet .

Meng Nianqun's cooking comes from Chen Jie and Gu Lichun, and he has the strengths of both, plus his own thinking, the dishes he made taste really good.Stir-fried cabbage in lard surprised Gu Lichun, the rich aroma of lard and the lightness of cabbage blended just right.The next few dishes tasted good too.

Gu Lichun saw that the dishes were good, and then thought about how tired he was after walking so far, so he wanted to reward himself, so he asked: "Deng Chang, these dishes go well with wine, I have rice wine here, do you want some wine?" Come on?"

Although Deng Chang didn't like drinking very much, he was in a good mood today, so he said, "Tomorrow is a heavy workload, so drink less."

Gu Lichun took out a jar of rice wine from the cabinet. Originally he didn't like to drink, but since Uncle Lu gave him two bottles of rice wine, he opened the door to a new world. The rice wine is delicious, fragrant and slightly sweet, and it can help you sleep , and not expensive, not to mention rice wine here, even Moutai is not too expensive, I heard that it is only seven or eight yuan a bottle, Gu Lichun has already thought about stocking up a few boxes.

The two of them each had a big glass of rice wine, and while drinking, they ate food and chatted all over the world.Deng Chang was very relaxed, Gu Lichun also looked at ease, and the two were talking and laughing happily.

Everyone looked surprised and admired Gu Lichun.Especially Sun Houyu, his eyes were shining when he looked at Gu Lichun, he must be following Gu Ge.

After nine o'clock, Deng Chang returned home having enjoyed himself.

Wu Fat looked at the empty plate on the table with a dejected expression on his face, why isn't there any left?Have you considered his feelings?As they ate and drank, he stood by and watched.

Gu Lichun looked at Wu Pang with apologetic eyes, he was not to blame for the lack of food left, it was all Deng Chang's fault.He underestimated the other party's appetite.

Perhaps Wu Pang's resentment was too strong, and finally Meng Nianqun cooked him a bowl of noodles with a little lard and vegetables for supper, which brought Wu Pang back to life.

……

The next morning, Gu Lichun officially went to work.As soon as he entered Deng Chang's office, he received a large stack of documents and notices.

There is a "Report of Parts Needed for Locomotives" by the maintenance team, including material dispatch and transportation, large truck arrangements, and division of labor tables for each department, as well as the roster of the production team below.Gu Lichun divided the documents into the hands of the staff in each department, and some of them had to convey them personally, and sometimes they had to answer the phone. No wonder Secretary Zhu said that it was too complicated for him to install the wheels.

However, although Gu Lichun was a newcomer, he arranged things in an orderly manner, busy but not chaotic.

Gu Lichun had just finished his work, and Deng Zhang and Secretary Zhu had another meeting, so he naturally had to keep up, listen in and take notes.

Today's meeting can be regarded as a small meeting. There are more than 30 people including employees from various departments, the captain and statistics of the production team, as well as the warehouse manager and the maintenance team.

The meeting was mainly chaired by Deng Chang, and Secretary Zhu made an additional speech.The styles of the two are obviously different. Secretary Zhu speaks softly and slowly. Before the meeting, he often starts with a paragraph of party constitutions and slogans, and then talks about something in the middle.Deng Chang is straight to the point, as soon as everyone is seated, they will directly throw out the meeting theme like a big brick.

The topic he raised today is: Should we harvest wheat in advance this year?How to prevent sudden changes in weather during the wheat harvest?

As soon as Deng Chang's words fell, everyone started to discuss enthusiastically.

Some said that they were not in favor of harvesting wheat early for fear of affecting the yield per mu.

Some said that they have been paying attention to the weather forecast, and the radio and newspapers did not say that there will be floods this year.

Deng Chang frowned and said: "You should have a deep understanding of whether the weather forecast is accurate; the weather likes to go against it. And even if the weather forecast is correct, it is only for a large area, and it is sunny in other places. As far as we have rain here, this happens often.”

He talked more than usual today, and everyone could tell that Deng Chang intended to reap the harvest early.

Three of the five production captains opposed it, and Juniper in particular opposed it the most.

"Deng Chang, if the harvest is early, our personnel are not deployed and the machines are not ready. I think the weather has always been sunny, and there is no sign of rain."

Deng Chang patiently explained to him: "Our five fields are located in the southernmost part of the farm, and the wheat ripens a little earlier. I went to check yesterday, and there are a few fields where the wheat is ready to be harvested. Let's harvest by field, and harvest the ripe ones first."

Jun Jun wanted to continue talking, but someone secretly pulled his clothes, Jun Jun had to stop first, at this time, Secretary Zhu, who had not spoken much, said slowly: "Old Deng, early harvest, we are not ready. Well. We have to make a report to the head office, and if the higher-ups approve it, we should be confident, right?"

Deng Chang looked at Secretary Zhu and said, "Old Zhu, you are the party branch secretary of Wuchang, and I am the director of Wuchang. It is our duty to arrange the production of Wuchang. A report is required.”

The two couldn't stop arguing. At this time, Wang Youcheng quietly pushed his notebook in front of Secretary Zhu. Secretary Zhu's face darkened, and he suddenly looked at Gu Lichun who had been keeping his head down to record: "Xiao Gu, I heard that you accompanied me yesterday afternoon." Let Deng Chang go to the wheat fields, and you have a share in this proposal? Well, tell me your reasons."
