The door of the courtyard house has been welded dead

More than four thousand yuan is not a small amount of money.

A normal city worker, a cook like He Yuzhu, would have to save for ten years without eating or drinking to earn that much.

This news undoubtedly shocked the men on the grassland. You looked at me, I looked at you, and for a moment, we were all at a loss.

Uncle Hadanbaatar was obviously stunned for a moment, but he reacted quickly and patted Li Feng's shoulders heavily with his big hands again. The smile on his face was more open-minded than before. He was not wrong about the young man in front of him.

For the people of the grassland, it is indeed a good thing. Building a school means that the children don’t have to go to the county to go to school. In rainy and snowy weather like this, it is simply a torture.

For children in mountainous areas, going to school means crossing mountains and hills. For children in grasslands, going to school in winter is even more dangerous than crossing mountains and hills.

The local children in the inland areas were fine, as they had genes inherited from the grassland people, but the thousands of children who were sent from the inland areas to the grasslands suffered a lot.

It is normal to get frostbite on the back of the hands and ears in winter, and even cracks from the cold. There is nothing you can do about it, and some people simply don't want to go to school.

Compared to the uncle's heartfelt joy, the expression of the educated Gacha was obviously more cautious.

"Comrade Li Feng, may I ask, does your neighbor really plan to do this?"

Standing up from the desk, Gacha's eyes were cautious, but his tone was expectant. It was because he had been educated that he knew the role of knowledge and culture. If he started herding sheep and horses at a young age, he would not have much of a future when he grew up.

Unable to leave the grassland and see the outside world, they are trapped on the grassland all their lives.

"I am very sure that this neighbor's lover has passed away. She herself is not in good health and is currently hospitalized. The doctors and nurses in the hospital are all aware of these things. Don't worry, there will be no accidents. The money has been paid to me."

The room, which had been quiet, suddenly began to boil like boiling water.

Freed from his worries, Gacha didn't know what to say. He stepped forward again and shook Li Feng's hand vigorously. His expression was even more moved than the uncle's.

"That's great, it's really great, Bater is right, the guests from the capital are all our warm-hearted friends~!"

While shaking hands vigorously, he patted the back of Li Feng's hand. This was several thousand dollars.

Although life on the grassland seems to be abundant, with herds of cattle, horses and sheep, and people can hunt gazelles and wild donkeys when they have nothing to do, those are the food they store for the winter and they cannot sell them.

The cadres of the commune have salaries, but most of the time, they can hardly save up any of that salary, because the herders do not have salaries. The people of the grassland are very united and will help each other when they are in trouble.

"The Gacha has been to the county many times because of school matters, but here, everyone lived too scattered before, and most of the pastures were in the north, so Xiao Xu built it in the commune next to the north~!"

Uncle Bater explained why the Gacha was so excited, without hiding anything.

"It's not that we can't go to school in the north. We can go, but after the snow, we have to go back to the south to spend the winter. This is our home. It's not possible for the children to go there because the road is covered with snow~!"

Uncle Bater stumbled over and explained the situation again, which was similar to what Li Feng had learned on the way. The winter on the grassland was long and cold, and many children had to stop temporarily because of the journey. Unexpectedly, the same was true in the Chi Lechuan Commune.

The reason for everyone's happiness was found. Li Feng's return brought a school, which undoubtedly helped the children sent from the mainland again.

"You don't have to thank me. I just came here to do something for you. If you really want to thank me, you can contact the hospital. Thank you, my neighbor~!"

Li Feng couldn't bear the handshakes and sincere thanks from everyone. If the Red Star Factory were to build it, he would probably have to wait another two years until the entire community was completed before he could use the funds for the driving school.

This time, Li Feng was able to take advantage of Aunt Yi. He wrote down Aunt Yi's bed number and the doctor she contacted on a piece of paper. When the time comes, the commune can make a phone call and it will prove that he had indeed got things done.

"We should have made this call. No matter what, we still have to thank you for remembering us and making this special trip!"

Holding the contact slip, the Gacha carefully clipped it into the notebook on the desk. The commune currently has no telephone, and the nearest phone can only be made at the animal husbandry station. From here, you can see the conditions on the grassland. Not to mention the telephone, there is not even a wire. Compared with the inland, the development is still a little slower.

"You'd better choose a site for the school as soon as possible and contact the brick factory. As for the money, I will give it to the army when the time comes. I won't stay here for too long. The army will contact you later~!"

When it comes to money, Li Feng is still very cautious. Human nature cannot withstand the test, but the People's Liberation Army can withstand the test. Schools cannot be built in winter. When the weather gets better, it will be much easier for the troops from Ulan to come over than for Li Feng.

"We have space. We have plenty of space here. Moreover, we don't need red bricks. We can make adobe bricks ourselves. We need to save money to buy windows and glass, as well as tables. Although we have a lot of money, we can build more classrooms and houses for teachers. Otherwise, we will have nowhere to live in the winter~!"

The Gacha's notebook contains the previous school building plan, but this plan was finally used in the neighboring commune. As for how much it would cost, the idea was to save as much as possible.

More than 4,000 yuan, if used in the mainland, may only be enough for one school, but on the grassland, as long as every herdsman contributes, they may be able to build a junior high school together.

Li Feng flipped through the Gacha's notebook and saw the lines of things that needed to be prepared for the school. The ink color of the handwriting had changed a little. It seemed that everything had been prepared a long time ago.

"Yes, teacher, the children need to hire a good teacher. I will go to the county again. When the snow melts, we can build a school. The teacher needs to be found in advance~!"

Gacha is also a man who is quick and efficient. He has already planned the appearance of the school in his mind, but he is troubled by the pain point of funding.

Now that the funding issue has been resolved, I am anxious to go to the county to complete the construction of the school after the new year and to identify the teachers for it.

"Don't worry about it. Our factory will take care of the classroom tables and chairs for you. We'll use red bricks to build them. Adobe bricks can't be used for long, but red bricks can last for 30 to 50 years. This is also a small contribution our factory can make to the children of the grassland!"

This is also what was promised to Aunt Yi before. Secretary Li and Director Li will not go back on their word. Why not let the children suffer? A bright and clean classroom will benefit more than just one or two generations.

"Will your factory agree? This... I can't trouble your factory anymore. Let's just forget it!"

The uncle was a little hesitant, and the gachal who had his arm pulled was even more hesitant. It was okay for an individual matter, but it would be difficult for them to accept if it troubled Li Feng's factory again.

"When I came here, our factory director had already agreed that building a school is a good deed, and everyone can donate money to you. Then our factory can donate some tables, chairs and benches, so what's the big deal~!"

"Leave these to us. Listen to me. Use good bricks to build a fence and a playground. The children can rest assured in school. There are wolves on the grassland, so safety is the most important thing~!"

The person in front of them was the factory director himself. The driving school funds could not be moved for the time being, but the wood from the woodworking workshop could be moved. Even if it was not enough, some could be coordinated from other units. For a factory director, these were easy things to do.

"Will it cause you any trouble?"

Even the safety of students and teachers has been taken into consideration. The uncle didn't know what to say at this time. The adults can use shotguns to drive away the wolves, but the teachers and children can't. The only thing he is worried about now is that Li Feng, the middleman, will be in trouble.

"It's not a big deal. Just do as I say. The factory will deliver the goods after the New Year. This is all I can do. You will have to trouble yourself for the rest~!"

This trip was much easier than Li Feng had imagined. The school had a plan in advance, so the engineering department didn't have to worry about it. He just had to hand over the money to the financial department of the 205th Division and send a few trucks to deliver the tables and chairs. It was already very worry-free.

"Thank you, it's not a bother. This is to build a school for ourselves and our children. Please help me bring some things to your factory director and that kind-hearted neighbor~!"

Li Feng originally thought that the uncle was going to give him a gift and was about to refuse, but Gacha took out a pure white Hada directly from the house.

This is one of the few gifts given by the grassland people and represents the noblest etiquette.

One was hung around Li Feng's neck, and the other two were folded and placed in Li Feng's hands.

"One is enough. The factory manager doesn't need one. Just give him this one!"

Li Feng bared his teeth and took one back. It should be said that the hearts of the grassland people are really simple. Even if the money and desks are not seen, the most precious gift has been given. (End of this chapter)
