1968: Started from breeding

Chapter 124: This is not just catching a spy, this is catching a golden baby!
Seeing this, Su Wenchen walked over and said to the two of them with a smile.

"Not really, not really. You are all great contributors to our county."

"You must be Comrade Niu Dahua and Comrade Zhang Guihua!"

Su Wenchen didn't expect that the two people who caught the traitor had the word "flower" in their names.

Well, as soon as you see their appearance you can tell that they are the two famous golden flowers in the county.

Su Wenchen first shook hands with the two of them.

"Director Xu and I are here on behalf of the city and county to commend you two."

As he said this, he waved to the back.

Two young clerks came over pushing two brand new bicycles.

This was just brought out from the department store.

This is also a reward given by the city to those who caught the two traitors. From Su Wenchen's reward, it can be seen that the city may have gained a lot from this matter.

Otherwise he wouldn't be so generous.

Although two bicycles are nothing to the city, the city would not be so generous if there were no benefits.

Su Wenchen took one.

"Comrade Niu Dahua and Comrade Zhang Guihua, these two bicycles are given to you as rewards by the city. You get one each!"

As he said that, he pushed the one in his hand over.

Moreover, the crowds who were originally watching heard that the city was actually giving out a bicycle as a reward.

My eyes straightened.

Staring straight at the brand new bicycle.

Even the two people who were rewarded did not expect it, because there had never been such a valuable reward before. Usually they were just tea cups, meat coupons, cloth coupons and the like.

Even the people around were shocked by the city's generosity, and many people even spoke with a sour tone.

"Niu Dahua and Zhang Guihua didn't just catch a spy, they caught a golden baby!"

"Yeah, these spies are so valuable, why don't we catch a few of them?"

"Are you dreaming? This guy is obviously a big spy chief. How could he be so easy to catch? These two people are just lucky. Otherwise, how could they have gotten their turn?"

Su Wenchen saw that the two were still standing there in a daze.

"Comrade Niu Dahua? Comrade Zhang Guihua? Come over and push the cart!"

Even the people from the neighborhood office nearby couldn't stand it.

"What are you doing? Go push the cart! You just try hard with your mouth, and even when it's really at your fingertips, you're still hesitating."

After hearing what the person in charge of the street office said.

The two men ran up immediately.

Even when one of them came up to take Su Wenchen's bicycle, he rubbed it hard on his clothes with his hands.

It seemed as if he was afraid of getting the bicycle handlebars dirty.

While taking the bicycle, he kept talking.

"Thank you leaders, thank you government, thank you..."

Su Wenchen listened to the other party and thanked almost everyone from top to bottom.

Also reminded the two of them.

"After you go back, you still have to go to the police station to get a stamp, otherwise it will be hard to find if you lose it."

Then Su Wenchen looked at Director Xu.

"Director Xu, I've given you everything. Please give us the rewards from the county as well!"

Hearing Su Wenchen's words.

The people around looked at Director Xu curiously and then started talking in a low voice.

"Oh my god, giving them a bicycle wasn't enough, they even got some extra. These two are lucky."

"Yes, if there is any spy-catching event in the county in the future, I must actively participate. Bicycles are hard to buy now. Even if I save enough money for a few years, it is still difficult to get a bicycle ticket."

The two aunties at the center of the discussion also looked at Director Xu with gleaming eyes.

Director Xu was a little embarrassed.

"Well, this is the reward from the county for the two of you. Ten dollars each, plus five catties of meat coupons and five feet of cloth coupons."

As he spoke, he took out the things he had prepared in advance and handed them to the two people.

The two men took the pile of light banknotes from Director Xu's hand.

For some reason, I didn't feel as happy as I did at the beginning.

The people around also looked at each other.

I don’t know who said it.

"The county is really stingy. They just gave me a few receipts and sent me away."

"Yes, compared with the city, they are indeed too stingy. Look at the people sent by the city to express their condolences. They have a different aura. They look younger and more impressive than those from the county!"

When Director Xu heard the discussions around him, he was immediately upset.

What's wrong with this person? It's fine if he says the county is stingy, because what he says is true.

But how did it escalate to personal attacks?

He said that Director Shi was willing to show up in public in the past, so why didn't he want to do so this time?

Because before when there was no competition in the city, this thing could still be used as a present.

But this thing can't be compared.

By comparison, doesn't it seem that things in the county are indeed worthless?

Besides, except for Su Wenchen, no one else in the county could get any benefits at all, so naturally they were unwilling to contribute more in this regard.

After delivering this place, Su Wenchen and Director Xu went to several other places, and found the same people who found the spies at the beginning.

Although the other party did not catch anyone.

But after all, it was the other party who found the person in the first place.

Since no one was caught, the reward was naturally not much, just a few pounds of meat coupons and cloth coupons.

These people heard that the reward for catching the person was a bicycle.

He even hung his feet and stamped his chest, regretting it so much that his intestines turned green.

After Su Wenchen finished dealing with the spy, he did not stay in the county for long, because County He was busy making arrangements to wipe out the black market.

He didn't want to get involved in such a life-threatening thing, so after saying something to He Xian, he went straight back to the chicken farm.

When Su Wenchen rode his bicycle to the chosen place again.

At this time, there were already quite a few people there leveling the ground.

Su Wenchen didn't see Lao Miao.

The places here that are baked at high temperatures are generally around the furnaces at that time.

So there are still a lot of weeds in other places.

Su Wenchen only saw the honest man Feng Guoliang, who was busy cutting grass there with a young man who looked about sixteen or seventeen years old.

Walked over and said hello.

"Old Feng, why are you cutting the grass by yourself? Where's Old Miao?"

Feng Guoliang straightened himself up.

"Director, Lao Miao went to the county brick factory and was told that they are still postponing delivery. The cement and steel bars from the other factories have already been loaded onto trucks and the first batch will be delivered this afternoon."

"I am leading people to clear out a place in advance to store supplies."

Then he pointed to the young man who was still mowing the grass over there.

"Director, this is my nephew. Hasn't his class been suspended? My family didn't want him to go to the countryside, so I gave him the quota."

Su Wenchen was not surprised by this kind of thing.

Because unless you have a serious falling out with your family, most people will still consider their own family first when it comes to work targets.

"Okay, but once the stuff is shipped here tonight, we'll have to find someone to guard it. Otherwise, if it's stolen, even I won't be able to explain to the city."

Feng Guoliang nodded in agreement. After all, one of the important reasons why his superiors asked him to come down was to ensure that these supplies were used in the chicken farm.

If the supplies were really stolen, he didn't know whether the manager was in trouble or not, but it was certain that he had not done his job well.

So he looked directly at Su Wenchen and said.

"Director, I have discussed with Lao Miao that starting tonight we will not be staying at your brigade's place. I told you this this morning when the members of your brigade and another brigade next door came to help level the ground."

"A few people will come over this afternoon to help us build a temporary thatched hut. Then Lao Miao and I will just live there for a few days."

Su Wenchen frowned.

"You don't have to do this. Besides, it's not enough for the two of you to guard it all night. If someone really has the guts to steal it, you two won't be able to protect it. You might not even react if someone cuts your throat."

When Feng Guoliang heard Su Wenchen say this, he suddenly felt a little nervous.

"No, they can't do that! They don't have the guts to do that! This is murder!"

Su Wenchen looked at the other person in surprise.

"The other party is planning to rob state property, do you think they are still afraid of killing someone?"

When Feng Guoliang heard this, he swallowed and thought about how he and Lao Miao would have to sleep in the wild at night.

There are always people with bad intentions sneaking up on you at any time.

"Director, what should we do? It seems like even if I really run into Lao Miao, it won't work!"

Su Wenchen rolled his eyes.

"Nonsense, I didn't expect you two to guard the supplies at all. Isn't that a waste of talent?"

"Wait a moment. I'll go to our brigade. You go to Shuanggou Brigade and discuss with their militia captain to see if we can send ten militiamen from each family to come over at night. With ten people from each family, the number of militiamen patrolling the two brigades won't be reduced by much."

"And our chicken farm also subsidizes the militiamen who come here with one pound of food per night."

As for the subsidies, Su Wenchen did not just wave his hand and give one or two yuan to each person.

After all, at this time, the purchasing power of money is still quite high.

So he simply gave the county's ordinary residents a pound of grain a day as a subsidy, which was almost enough to make up for the grain consumed by the militia that day.

After hearing Su Wenchen's words, Feng Guoliang also breathed a sigh of relief. With twenty militiamen together, he didn't have to worry about someone sneaking up on him without noticing.

So I agreed immediately.

"Okay, Director, I'll go to Shuanggou Brigade and talk to their captain about this matter."

Afterwards, Su Wenchen looked at a large piece of open space that had been leveled.

This is where he starts.

After the chicken farm is built, Su Wenchen plans to fully close off only the breeding area, and no one else will be allowed in except the workers.

He planned to build the living area for the chicken farm workers here by the river, including the canteen, bathhouse and dormitory area.

There were also workers' clubs that were common in state-owned factories during this period, to which various reading rooms, table tennis rooms, chess and card rooms, etc. could be added later.

Even if I have money in the future, I can buy a movie projector in the name of a chicken farm.

Su Wenchen thought about this and found that it was no wonder that during this period, workers said that the factory was their home.

At this time, the workers' treatment, sense of honor, emotional value, and material foundation can be said to have reached the peak in the country at this time.

Workers will naturally have a strong sense of belonging and identity with the factory.

After all, if you want the horse to run, you have to feed it grass. This is the simplest truth.
