Counterattack in the chronology

Naturally, the general venue office gave a warm reception, and led the reporter to visit one and two venues, passing through three and four venues in between, and finally arrived at five venues.

The employees and family members of the five venues gathered early in the small square in front of the venue office to warmly welcome the journalists.

When Gu Lichun saw a middle-sized young man with black-rimmed glasses getting out of the jeep, he felt a little familiar for no reason.

Secretary Zhu called Gu Lichun, and enthusiastically introduced to the reporter: "Reporter Wang, this is Comrade Gu Lichun, the deputy chief of the Agriculture and Animal Husbandry Department of our five farms."

Reporter Wang looked at Gu Lichun in surprise, and said, "Comrade Gu Lichun, your name sounds familiar to me, and your face looks familiar too. Have we met somewhere?"

Only then did Gu Lichun suddenly remember who this reporter Wang was. He was originally a reporter from their county, and he had visited their village with Secretary Yu or some other secretary of the commune.

Gu Lichun stepped forward excitedly and enthusiastically, and held Reporter Wang's hand tightly: "It turned out to be Reporter Wang. I am Gu Lichun from Gujia Village. You once visited our village with the secretary of our commune. At that time, my grandma made trouble for no reason. , insisted on withholding our family’s rations, you spoke uprightly and brought justice for our family, thanks to your report, our brothers and sisters did not starve to death. My mother and fellow villagers still mention you from time to time. I like it Writing is also inspired by you."

When he spoke in such detail, Reporter Wang naturally remembered it.He couldn't help being shocked. The pale young man back then turned into the deputy chief of the Agriculture and Animal Husbandry Department?Also published so many articles in the newspaper.The most important thing is that the other party was inspired by himself.He really didn't expect that he would inadvertently change a person's life.Thinking of this, Reporter Wang felt a sense of pride.

His heart was shocked, but he said calmly on his face: "So it's you, I thought you had the same name and surname. It's only been less than a year, and you are the deputy chief of the section. It's amazing to save a huge loss for the country." .”

Gu Lichun said modestly: "It's all about the good policies of the party and the country. The leaders of the farm employ people who are eclectic and are willing to give us young people opportunities."

Reporter Wang laughed. The people around saw that Gu Lichun was an acquaintance with the reporter.At the same time, he was also very interested in what Gu Lichun mentioned, but it was a pity that it was not easy to intervene in such an occasion.

When Secretary Zhu heard that the two were acquaintances, he felt more at ease. He said with a relaxed smile, "Haha, this is really fate. Xiao Gu, treat Reporter Wang well."

Deng Zhang also did enough superficial work and gave Gu Lichun a few instructions.

Reporter Wang is very curious about Gu Lichun's promotion path, and also wants to know more about the series of things he has done.This time, he planned to do an in-depth interview.

Gu Lichun led Reporter Wang to the pig farm first. At his suggestion, Reporter Wang took some close-ups of the clean pigs and some photos of the workers on the farm.Then they went to the alfalfa field again. The third crop of alfalfa had just been harvested, and now a new layer of green velvet was growing on the field.

Gu Lichun told Reporter Wang about the twists and turns and hardships they experienced in planting alfalfa, as well as the final harvest moment.

Reporter Wang was recording with a brush, feeling in his heart, if only there were more interviewees like this.Obviously, a boring matter was talked about by Gu Lichun with ups and downs, and it was full of excitement. After a little tidying up, the article can be published directly.

After introducing the matter of alfalfa, the next thing is the matter of wheat harvest.There is more story to tell here.From the fact that they insisted on harvesting wheat early in spite of everyone's ridicule and opposition, to when the weather suddenly changed and everyone went all out to harvest it, Deng Chang's tall, courageous and wise image jumped into Reporter Wang's mind.Secretary Zhu's cleverness and meticulousness, and his image of serving the people wholeheartedly also came out.Of course, the most vivid and vivid image is Gu Lichun.

While telling the story, Gu Lichun took out the photos and showed them to Reporter Wang.

He pointed to Zhao Gao's mother's muscular figure and said, "Look, this is the image of the working people, and it is also the representative of the vast number of working women in our country."

He pointed at Eldest Sister Bai again and said, "This is the iron lady of our farm, who doesn't like red clothes but farm clothes."

Gu Lichun also promoted Chen Jie by the way: "This is a female educated youth from a family of revolutionary cadres in the capital. When she first came here, she was at a loss and couldn't adapt. Under the influence of the broad masses of the people and under the ideological guidance of Secretary Zhu, she gradually Transformed into a strong and capable female farm warrior, she went through the wind and rain every day, and worked like everyone else during the wheat harvest. She said that she finally did not disgrace her origin, and she was worthy of the title of soldier's daughter. "

Reporter Wang was inspired, his eyes lit up, he jotted down a few strokes, and asked Gu Lichun if he could use these photos.

Gu Lichun smiled and said: "Originally these are private photos, but who made us so familiar, you can pick whatever you want."

After introducing several female comrades, Gu Lichun also mentioned Wang Youcheng by the way, "This comrade is from the party committee office, a model farm cadre, and a leader of young cadres. God, he even said that he could work for another 365 years. Such a person really makes me awe-inspiring." Reporter Wang followed suit.

The two have been chatting non-stop, in fact, it was mainly Gu Lichun who was talking. After talking for more than two hours, seeing that the sky was getting dark, Gu Lichun stayed with Reporter Wang for dinner at the pig farm. Reporter Wang was going back to the guest house in the town Yes, he decided not to go back at all, saying that he wanted to experience life, eat and live with the employees, so Gu Lichun asked someone to clean up a guest room for Reporter Wang to live in.

The dinner was eaten by the big guys. The dishes were not too rich and did not exceed the hospitality specifications, but they were very distinctive, and they were all produced here in Wuchang.

The fish and shrimp raised in the swamp were made into sauerkraut fish and braised shrimp in oil; the duck raised there was used to make stir-fried duck meat, boiled a few salted duck eggs, and all four petals were combined into a dish.Only good food is not enough, fearing that people will say that it will corrupt revolutionary reporters, Gu Lichun also specially added a few Yikusi beets, one is fried tender sweet potato stems with pepper, one is wild amaranth mixed with mashed garlic, and fried snails with pepper.Reporter Wang is very satisfied with this arrangement.

During the meal, Reporter Wang did not forget his own job, and continued to interview Gu Lichun in every possible way.

"I heard that you rejected the job in the head office? Can you tell me what you think?"

Gu Lichun replied with a serious face: "We young people just want to fight on the front line and accumulate a lot of practical experience for future revolutionary work."

Reporter Wang said approvingly: "You are really a good comrade with consciousness."

"Is it really influenced by me that you embarked on the road of writing?"

"Yes, you see, I have never published an article before. Since I saw Reporter Wang justice for our family with a pen in my hand, I feel that I have opened the door to a new world: it turns out that the power of words is so powerful that we can Sending out an inner cry with words can help those in need."

Reporter Wang agreed deeply, and then he asked: "Then how did you master your writing?"

"Read more, think more and write more." Gu Lichun used the panacea answer.

When reporter Wang thought about it, it didn't seem to be a problem, that's how he practiced.

After interviewing Gu Lichun, Reporter Wang also interviewed others by the way.

It was okay when interviewing others. Although everyone was very shy and embarrassed and couldn't let go, they answered questions carefully and carefully, and they were all within the controllable range.But when it was Wu Pang's turn, the tone of his words suddenly changed.

Reporter Wang: "Comrade Wu, what is your revolutionary ideal?"

Wu Pang picked up a piece of fish and replied as he ate, "There is meat to eat."

Reporter Wang: "..." This doesn't seem to be in line with proletarian values.

Gu Lichun had no choice but to add an explanation: "His ideal is to make the proletariat of the world have food."

Reporter Wang said "oh", that's more or less the same.

……

Reporter Wang left five games in the afternoon of the second day, and it is said that he returned with a full reward.

Three days later, Reporter Wang's article about Honghe Farm was published in "Dongyun Daily", still on the front page, occupying a large space with rich pictures and text.

Gu Lichun skimmed through it quickly, the article was full of beautiful words, written with care and sincerity.

Deng Chang looked at it and shook his head: "This reporter Wang's writing is not as good as yours. It's clichéd and well-behaved." .The reporter's text was read as soon as he read it, and he couldn't leave a deep impression in his heart.

As for Secretary Zhu's evaluation, there is only one word "good".

Gu Lichun was not as excited as anyone else about being published in the newspaper, so he put it aside after reading it.However, out of professionalism, he wrote an enthusiastic letter back to Reporter Wang and sent some farm specialties.

At the same time, Gu Lichun also received letters from his aunt's family. Yes, all four members of the family wrote to him.

My aunt's letter is a full three pages, except for some family matters, it is all kinds of compliments.Uncle Yang Aiguo's letter is longer, four pages.The letter not only praised him in various ways, but also encouraged him to make persistent efforts, continue to work hard and so on.The letter also said that Wang Youcai could not help becoming angry when he heard that his cousin was so vulnerable, but there was nothing he could do, because Wang Youcheng was a model worker, and it was difficult to mention the job transfer.Gu Lichun could feel his comfort and pride from the lines.

However, Yang Aiguo still told him to be careful in everything.At the same time, as young people, we must carefully screen out sugar-coated cannons and shells, and never be corrupted by others.For the rest, we will meet and discuss in detail when we go back to the summer vacation.

Cousin's letter is very simple, only half a page; Yang Zhuzhu's letter has two pages, and the content is very rich, including Chinese characters, pinyin, and pictures. Anyway, I can even guess the general content.The general meaning is that I am going back for summer vacation. I want to have fun when I go back. I want to fish in the river, climb trees, and pick wild fruits and so on.

In addition to letters, there is also a large package of books, covering agriculture, forestry, and fishery, as well as several classic red literature novels.The bookshelves in Gu Lichun's room are much more plump.

In addition to reading professional books these days, Gu Lichun just wandered around in the woods with Wu Pang and the others.

The site of Wuchang is really big. Although there is little arable land, there are many forests, wide waters, agriculture, forestry, animal husbandry, sideline fishery, except for the first "farming", the other four can be vigorously developed.

Wu Fat led the way, while Gu Lichun checked the terrain and drew a map to remember his experience.

They went all the way to the depths of the dense forest. At this time, voices came from the forest.

"It's a pity that this place is suitable for growing apples. If my experiments back then had not been interrupted, the dwarfing experiments of apple and plum trees should have been successful. If dwarf apple and plum trees can be planted in this mountain forest, the yield will be sure." It will be high and the quality will be good."

Dwarf apple trees and plum trees, as a former farmer, Gu Lichun also dabbled in these a little.The fruit trees in his farm are dwarfed. This kind of fruit tree has short plants, strong adaptability, high yield and easy picking.Gu Lichun rarely sees dwarf fruit trees here, so these two people are experts in this field?

Gu Lichun signaled Wu Fatty to keep silent, and he stood quietly aside, waiting for the two to appear.After a while, the voices of the two became clearer and closer to them.

At this time, a female voice was heard: "Old man, it's good that we can survive now, don't think about your experiments. Don't you think I don't think about anything?"

Gu Lichun felt that this female voice sounded familiar. Just as he was thinking, the two had already turned the corner, and they happened to be facing him and Wu Pang.

Gu Lichun saw that the man and the woman were both in their 50s. The woman Gu Lichun knew was Professor Guan Yinghua from Sichang Cattle Farm. The man should be her husband from the conversation just now.

Gu Lichun greeted with a smile: "Professor Guan, are you going out for a walk too?"

Professor Guan suddenly saw two people in front of him. He was a little nervous at first, but when he took a closer look, it was Wu Fatty and Gu Lichun. He relaxed a lot, and responded with a smile: "Xiao Gu, Xiao Wu is you."

As she spoke, she pointed to the old man with a pale face and shabby clothes beside her: "This is Lao Lin, my love."

Gu Lichun also greeted with a smile: "Hello, Professor Lin."

Professor Lin smiled sadly: "I'm not a professor anymore, just call me Lao Lin. So you are Xiao Gu."

The four of them exchanged some pleasantries, and Gu Lichun proposed to go together.On the way, he couldn't help but said: "Professor Lin, Professor Guan, I just overheard you talking about the dwarfing of fruit trees..."

He noticed that the expressions of the two were a little nervous, so he said in a relaxed tone: "Don't be nervous, Professor Guan, you know me. Although I came from a poor and lower-middle peasant, I respect knowledge and science. By the way, I I was recently promoted to deputy section chief, and I am in charge of both forestry and fishery. I want to see if I can make use of these forests, which have been left unused, wasting the country's resources."

The two looked at each other quietly, and Professor Guan said first: "Little Gu, I naturally know what you are like, but we are all here to work, and we are not allowed to do experiments in the field..."

Professor Lin overtook Professor Guan's words, and couldn't wait to say: "Comrade Gu, let me tell you that this Yunyang City is very suitable for growing apples. I saw a few wild apple trees in the forest, and they grew very well. If you If you can help me draw a place for the experiment, I guarantee that it will be within two years, no, it will be successful in one year, and my experiment was almost successful back then. I have already produced dwarf rootstocks for dwarf plum trees."

Professor Lin was afraid that Gu Lichun would not understand the technical terms, so he directly concluded: "This kind of dwarf fruit tree has a small plant, occupies less land, and has a high yield. Properly, it is possible to produce [-] catties per mu.” Gu Lichun remembered that the yield of apple trees on his farm was about [-] to [-] catties per mu, and the highest could reach [-] catties.However, considering the age, what Professor Lin said should be regarded as high-yield.

Gu Lichun couldn't help being a little moved. The utilization rate of this large forest in Wuchang is very low, and Yunyang County is suitable for growing apples. If the dwarf apple trees mentioned by Professor Lin can be planted, it will bring a huge income.If it is done on a large scale, economic benefits, green environmental protection, and sustainable development can be integrated, and economic development at the expense of the environment can be avoided.

He thought for a while, Professor Lin, Professor Guan and his group of intellectuals should be rehabilitated and return to the city in two years.He just quietly marked out a piece of land for Professor Lin to conduct experiments on, so there shouldn't be any problem.

Seeing that Gu Lichun was touched, Professor Lin hurriedly assured him: "Little Comrade Gu, don't worry, I will try my best to be careful not to cause trouble for you. The forest in your fifth field is so big, and there are few people, it is also a class if you can't take care of it. It's normal. If someone finds out, you can push it on me. It's just that I did the experiment secretly, and you just didn't find out."

Professor Guan looked at his wife worriedly, hesitant to speak.

Gu Lichun said: "You are quite thoughtful. Are you two optimistic about the place?"

Professor Lin smiled embarrassingly: "I'm optimistic. On the southernmost Red Mountain, your people rarely go there."

Gu Lichun said to Wu Pang: "Find a chance to change places with the forest rangers in the south." Wu Pang nodded in agreement.

Professor Lin and Professor Guan secretly carried out experiments on dwarfing fruit trees on the Red Mountain.If he needs any information and things, he will leave a note to Wu Pang and ask him to pass it to Gu Lichun. Gu Lichun will find a way to buy it and let Wu Pang take it back when he goes to work.

Gu Lichun was so busy that he never touched the ground. He left early and returned late every day, riding a bicycle, or driving an old tractor, wandering around with a yellow satchel on his back, stopping to write and draw from time to time, sometimes meeting five people. The employees and family members at the scene will stop and chat for a few words.

I run around during the day, and when I come back at night, I either go to night school or read and study by myself.

He was so busy that he even missed five welcome meetings with the newly transferred head of the supply and marketing department.

Afterwards, Gu Lichun asked Zhao Gao what kind of person the other party was.

Zhao Gao held back for a while, and replied: "That guy is called Lu Jinjin, he is quite young, about 25 or [-] years old, full of vigor. Brother Gu, this guy is not easy to deal with."

Gu Lichun smiled and said: "It's not easy to do, let's not do it for now, we are people who do practical things."

Zhao Gao came up and asked, "What have you been up to lately? Go out and run every day."

Gu Lichun pretended to be mysterious, "You will know in two days."

After running for a few days, Gu Lichun scribbled and wrote a proposal.

It proposes to develop diversified management on the basis of taking grain as the key link, and to develop animal husbandry, sideline forestry and fishery together.The plan is divided into long-term plan and short-term plan. The long-term plan includes building a reservoir, planting fruit trees, and planting shelter forests.There are three main plans in the near future. One is to plant lotus root in the marsh waters, make full use of water resources, and enrich the dining table for employees; Baskets, straw hats, etc. need to develop not only daily necessities, but also handicrafts; third, geese and ducks have adapted well in Wuchang, and they can be bred in large quantities next spring, and special personnel will be assigned to manage them.

After Gu Lichun finished writing the plan, he showed it to Qi Ke first, and Qi Ke hurriedly flipped through it, and said in a low voice: "We have too few people in the fifth field, and there are even fewer employees in the Agriculture and Animal Husbandry Department. We need to take care of the forest and manage it. The pig farm still needs to harvest alfalfa, and the stall is too busy to handle it. Xiao Gu, you must be cautious when doing things, and don't be too aggressive."

Gu Lichun said: "Qike, only the first item in my plan needs manpower now, and the rest can be missed. I checked, and I can still plant lotus root in early July, which happens to be harvested in autumn and winter, and the straw weaving can wait until autumn Besides, I’ll discuss it with you first, and if you don’t object, I’ll show it to Deng Zhang and Secretary Zhu.”

Chico said slowly: "I reserve my opinion." It meant disagreement.

Gu Lichun's heart couldn't help sinking slightly. Although Qi Ke didn't like to stand out in the past, he acted in a cautious and steady style, seeking nothing but nothing, but today he is somewhat abnormal.

Qi Ke then said slowly: "Xiao Gu, the clerk you recruited, Xiao Zhao, is not very useful. He can't write manuscripts, and the materials are so-so. Lao Liang is one of three, and he doesn't touch the ground all day long." , can’t push everything to Lao Liang.”

Gu Lichun feels that Qi Ke's current situation is a bit similar to the "catfish effect". He disrupted the peaceful living environment of the Agriculture and Animal Husbandry Department, and also aroused the fighting spirit of Qi Ke, who has always been a Buddhist and lazy.

Gu Lichun thought about the current situation, and it seems that one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers, as for why Qi Ke could accommodate him before.He guessed that Chico felt that he was too young to threaten him for the time being.

Thinking of this, Gu Lichun smiled: "Qi Ke, Zhao Gao is a newcomer, of course he can't compare with Liang Ke in writing manuscripts and reading materials. But he also has his own advantages, for example, he is highly motivated, young and strong, and suitable for field work. As cadres, we must maximize the strengths of our employees and not just look at their weaknesses, after all, no one is perfect."

After speaking, Gu Lichun picked up the plan, stood up and said, "I understand Qi Ke's opinion. I will show it to Deng Chang and Secretary Zhu to see what they have to say."

Seeing that he didn't take his own opinion into consideration at all, Chico's expression sank.Gu Lichun pretended not to see, turned and left.

In the past, he still gave Qi Ke, the direct superior, a lot of face, but judging by his attitude, he doesn't think much about it anymore.He's just lazy in politics and seeking stability, he doesn't want others to do things, he doesn't have a mind at all.

Gu Lichun went to find Deng Chang, and happened to meet a strong and vigorous young man head-on.

The other party stopped, looked at Gu Lichun, and stretched out his hand: "Hello, Comrade Gu Lichun, I am Lu Jinjin, the new chief of the supply and marketing department."

Gu Lichun shook Lu Jinjin's hand back, and nodded with a smile: "Hello, Section Chief Lu, welcome to the fifth session. We will learn and make progress together in the future."

Section Chief Lu also smiled back. He wanted to continue the conversation and evaluate Gu Lichun's opponent face to face. Unfortunately, Gu Lichun still had something to do, so he replied, "Talk back, I'll report to Deng Chang."
