60s: I have a store

Chapter 368 Shuangtian Village's Request for Help
Zhou Yimin was waiting for someone to deliver plastic film in Zhoujiazhuang, but unexpectedly, he did not wait for the delivery of plastic film. Instead, he waited for the village chief Liang from Shuangtian Village and Liang Zan.

They were all old acquaintances, and the security team at the entrance of Zhoujiazhuang Village did not stop them. Instead, they greeted them: "Village Chief Liang, are you here to see the old Party Secretary?"

"Yes! Is Secretary Zhou in the village?"

"Yes, probably in the shed by the river."

After hearing this, Village Chief Liang took Liang Zan to the greenhouse.

He had been to Zhoujiazhuang many times, so he knew where the place was.

There is no other way. Ever since the Zhoujiazhuang reservoir was built and 50 laborers returned to the village, the food problem has become serious again. If we don’t find other solutions.

It won't be long before Shuangtian Village will be in a food shortage. It will be a long time before the next harvest! If they don't think of a solution, they will soon be short of food and some people may starve to death.

Especially now, the weather is cold and I get hungry very quickly.

At the beginning, Village Chief Liang also organized the villagers to go into the mountains to hunt, but the harvest was not very ideal, and all the prey was made into bacon and would not be used unless the situation was urgent.

He also planned to use the bacon to see if he could exchange some food from Zhou Yimin. It was impossible for others to borrow food all the time, and the food in Zhoujiazhuang did not come from the wind.

So he came here shamelessly this time. After all, Zhoujiazhuang had just helped him last time, and now he has to come and ask others for help again not long after. If he didn’t have no other choice, he wouldn’t have come here.

Soon the two arrived at the greenhouse and saw Zhou Yimin and the old branch secretary and others.

Village chief Liang immediately felt strange. Why were all the "big shots" in Zhoujiazhuang gathered in the greenhouse? Was there something big in the greenhouse?
When he looked, he saw Zhou Yimin, the old branch secretary, and the team leader were all waiting here.

There's no point in thinking so much, just hurry up and move forward.

The sharp-eyed Zhou Yimin saw Village Chief Liang and Liang Zan from afar.

"Old Party Secretary, who do you think is coming?"

"It seems that the person who can solve our village's problems has arrived."

The old branch secretary followed Zhou Yimin's gaze and immediately saw Village Chief Liang and Liang Zan. He was not unfamiliar with these two people, as they were old acquaintances.

As soon as I saw them coming, I could roughly guess what they were here for.

But he still went forward to greet her enthusiastically: "Village Chief Liang, why didn't you come here and say hello in advance so that I could greet you at the village entrance!"

"Here, Secretary Zhou, just don't blame me for coming here uninvited.

How dare I let you go to greet me?"

After all, he came here to ask for help, so how could he expect to be greeted by others? It was already good enough that he was not driven out of the village directly.

The old Party branch secretary got straight to the point: "Village Chief Liang, what is the matter with you coming here to see me?"

Although he roughly knew what it was, this kind of thing still needed to be told by others. Otherwise, if he said it himself, it would be like he was begging others for help.

"Old Party Secretary, Shuangtian Village is out of options. Can you lend us some food? The village can't hold on any longer." Village Chief Liang could only tell the purpose of coming here.

The old Party branch secretary said calmly, "Village Chief Liang, it is a bit difficult to borrow grain. There is not much grain in the village."

"Really? Sorry to bother you then." Village Chief Liang was a little disappointed.

After saying that, he wanted to take Liang Zan to other villages to try their luck.

However, the old branch secretary stopped him and said, "Village Chief Liang, don't be so anxious. I haven't finished speaking yet." Village Chief Liang was originally disappointed, but his mood immediately turned around. However, this time he did not speak, but just kept looking at the old branch secretary, for fear of interrupting him again.

The old Party secretary said slowly: "Although I can't lend grain to your village, the commune recently awarded our village 20 quotas for building reservoirs. Our village doesn't need them, so we can give them to your village."

When Village Chief Liang heard this, he was immediately happy. Although he could not borrow any grain, he had 20 more places to build the reservoir. At least this would reduce the pressure of feeding 20 people, and the food in the village could last a little longer.

Suddenly I thought: "Old Party Secretary, what on earth did your village do that the commune would actually reward your village?"

You have to know that the commune is famous for its stinginess. If you want to take advantage of the commune, it may be easier to meet Big Brother's experts.

"It's just the chicken hatchery in the village. The commune is planning to promote it, so they gave us a little reward. It's not worth mentioning, not worth mentioning!" The old branch secretary waved his hand nonchalantly.

The corners of his mouth are harder to suppress than AK.

Everyone present knew that the old branch secretary was in Versailles.

I can only say that Village Chief Liang is worthy of being the village chief: "Awesome, Secretary Zhou and you guys are awesome! The commune side."

Liang Zan felt very strange looking at his uncle who kept flattering him. In his eyes, his uncle was very serious. He didn't expect that he had this side of him!

As he spoke, Village Chief Liang's words became more and more outrageous, making the old branch secretary feel a little embarrassed.

"Village Chief Liang, our village has some projects that require manpower. I wonder if your village can allocate some more manpower?"

Village chief Liang is in a state now, as if pie had fallen from the sky. He did not expect that he could get such a reward this time. There are a total of about a hundred households in the village, which means that sixty people will go to build the commune reservoir. After a little bit of effort, another fifty people will be sent to Zhoujiazhuang to work.

The food pressure in the village was greatly relieved at once.

"We can dispatch 50 people to Zhoujiazhuang to help. Is that enough?"

He wanted to call all the villagers to help, so that he wouldn't have to worry about the food problem in the village, but the village also had tasks to complete. If they couldn't be completed, it would be troublesome, so he still had to leave some people to complete the farm work in the village.

Moreover, in order not to damage the relationship with Zhoujiazhuang, the elderly, children and other people with weak labor force must not be sent here. Are they just here to eat for free?

"Okay, although there are fewer people, it is still enough." The old branch secretary nodded slightly.

Village Chief Liang, I didn't expect that fifty people were not enough. It seems that Zhoujiazhuang is making another big move.

In fact, they still have people in their village, but they are afraid that the ones they send will be ugly and the people in Zhoujiazhuang will dislike them, so they will not send them such good things next time.

"Okay, old secretary, when is the best time for people to come over?"

Looking at the electric wires above my head, I felt very envious. Within a radius of ten kilometers, only Zhoujiazhuang was rich enough to have electricity, and it was a small generator built by their own village, so they didn't have to pay for the electricity.

"You'll start coming here tomorrow, and the treatment will be the same as last time," the old branch secretary replied.

Village Chief Liang said, "Okay, I'll go back and make arrangements. 50 people will show up at Zhoujiazhuang on time tomorrow."

After saying this, he kept looking at Zhou Yimin, as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.

The old branch secretary saw it and said, "Captain, let's go over there and take a look!"

Although the team leader was puzzled, he still followed the arrangements of the old branch secretary.
