Rebirth of the Industrial Tycoon

The private mining of river sand is just a small episode, and the investigation is still going on.

Next, the delegation entered the fields in the countryside to conduct on-the-spot investigations.

Sui Dongsheng stood on a small earthen bag and looked at a vegetable greenhouse in the distance.

As a large county for vegetable cultivation, Zengling County has introduced vegetable greenhouse technology very early.

The vegetable greenhouses of that era were much lower than the current vegetable greenhouses. It was impossible to stand up straight in the greenhouses, and many greenhouses could only work by squatting.

This is mainly to reduce the construction cost of vegetable greenhouses. After all, the agricultural products of that era were still relatively poor, and it was impossible to build the current steel structure greenhouses.

This kind of low greenhouse is not only a tractor, but also an ordinary small agricultural machine.

On the field road not far away, two agricultural tricycles were traveling in opposite directions.

Li Weidong immediately introduced: "Leader, the roads in this rural area are relatively narrow, it is difficult for our jeeps to drive in, and trucks can't get in at all, but this kind of road that cannot be driven by cars is the most common in rural areas. Every farmer is also connected to every field of the farmer.

I call this kind of country trail the last mile in the countryside. As long as you walk through the last mile, you can come to the main road and come to a place where cars can pass. However, this last mile is the most difficult link for the transportation of agricultural products!

In the past, the last mile of the countryside was all done by manpower. Farmers needed to carry poles, carry baskets on their backs, and carry agricultural products on their shoulders to make money. Our factory agricultural three-way vehicle is specially developed to solve this last mile. "

Sui Dongsheng knew that the so-called "last mile in the countryside" did not refer to the distance of one kilometer, but the distance between the countryside and the outside world.

For rural areas on both sides of national and provincial roads, the last kilometer may be only a few hundred meters; for mountainous areas, this last kilometer is a rugged mountain road that stretches for dozens of miles!

Farmers squatting in their own villages will never be able to get out of poverty and become rich. They must sell agricultural products in order to become prosperous. Therefore, the so-called last mile in the countryside is also the last mile for farmers to get rid of poverty and become rich!

Li Weidong went on to introduce: "Of course, tractors can also solve the problem of the last mile in the countryside to a certain extent. But our country's farmers are basically small farmers with small households, and farmers own very limited land, unlike Europe and the United States. The farmers of the country are big farms.

If it is a large farm in Europe and the United States, it is not enough to buy a few tractors. But for the farmers in our country, it is indeed a waste to buy a tractor for a few acres of land. The tractor can often pull ten tons or eight tons of goods, but the farmers in our small-scale peasant economy do not have so many things to transport.

Agricultural tricycles just solve this problem. Compared with tractors, agricultural tricycles are cheaper, easier to operate, and more flexible to drive in the fields. All the leaders also saw the two agricultural tricycles meeting just now. If it is replaced by a tractor, I am afraid that one party will back up.

The road can go through.

I don't think we need to compare tractors to agricultural tricycles, which are two different types of transport equipment. Tractors can do farm work, which cannot be replaced by agricultural tricycles, but the advantages of agricultural tricycles in cost and practicability cannot be replaced by tractors!

In the final analysis, it depends on whether it is useful and whether it can help farmers. Whether it is a tractor or an agricultural tricycle, as long as it can bring benefits to farmers and help farmers become prosperous, it is something worth developing and promoting! "

Li Weidong has long realized that the emergence of agricultural tricycles will inevitably take away the market for tractors.

At present, the scale of Fukang Agricultural Machinery Factory is still small, and the agricultural tricycle is also a little-known product. If the Fukang Agricultural Machinery Factory expands in the future and agricultural tricycles are sold all over the country, it will take away the market of tractors, which will inevitably lead to tractor manufacturers. rebound.

There are so many tractor factories in China, and there is no shortage of people with deep backgrounds. Li Weidong may not be able to compete with others at that time.

It's better if you fight clearly. If you encounter a ruthless competitor and secretly make a stumbling block, that's the most troublesome thing.

Therefore, Li Weidong simply made it clear in front of the leaders of the ministries and commissions, and implanted the concept of "tractors and agricultural tricycles are not functionally replaceable" into the minds of the delegation.

As long as this is confirmed, agricultural tricycles will be treated as a separate agricultural production machinery, and agricultural machinery subsidies can also be obtained independently in the future.

Li Weidong's remarks really moved Sui Dongsheng, he nodded: "Director Li said it well! What is the role of agricultural machinery? Isn't it to increase productivity and help farmers get rich as soon as possible! No matter what agricultural machinery it is? , as long as it can help and benefit farmers, it is worthy of our promotion!"

During the conversation, a few farmers in the distance came over with hoes, shovels and other agricultural tools, and their faces were still fierce.

Li Weidong saw this group of people for the first time, so he immediately said, "Leader, if you're almost done, get off this mound as soon as possible!"

"What? Are you still not allowed to see the vegetable greenhouse in Qinghe?" Sui Dongsheng asked with a smile.

"Uh, leader, you can see, but don't look at it from this position!" Li Weidong pointed at Sui Dongsheng's feet, and then said, "This mound looks like someone's grave!"

"Uh..." Sui Dongsheng suddenly looked embarrassed.

Someone next to him asked, "Director Li, there is no monument here, how do you know this is the tomb of a tomb?"

"I saw someone coming over there!" Li Weidong pointed to the approaching peasants, and continued; "These villagers probably regard us as comrades from the civil affairs side who change customs!"

...

Li Weidong guessed right, this earthbag is the grave of a certain family.

The traditional concept pays attention to "being in the ground is safe". In the feudal society, wealthy people will invite a master who can read Feng Shui to choose a treasure land of Feng Shui as the ancestral burial ground. After the death of family members, they will be buried there.

Ordinary small households, when someone died and could not find the feng shui treasure, simply buried it in their own fields. These farmers were not rich and had no money to erect monuments, so they just piled up a small earthbag.

Nowadays, rural areas are vigorously carrying out the work of changing customs and customs. Many villages and towns have planned special public fundraising areas, and there are fewer graves in the fields.

In the early 1990s, it was the era when rural areas were vigorously promoting funeral reform and encouraging the implementation of cremation. The surrounding villagers saw a few people dressed as leaders who were always wandering around the graves.

...

Zhou Chongguang fled back to the urban area of ​​Qinghe and hurriedly returned home.

"Why did you come back so early today?" Zhou Chongguang's daughter-in-law asked.

Zhou Chongguang's daughter-in-law is only in her early fifties, but she has already retired. She was not a cadre when she was on the job. According to state regulations, the retirement age for female workers is fifty years old.

Zhou Chongguang said: "Hurry up and take out all the money at home and hide it, as well as treasury bills! Remember, hide it outside, don't hide it at home!"

Zhou Chongguang said, took out a passbook and an envelope from his arms, handed it to his daughter-in-law, and said, "This passbook is some private money I've saved over the years, you can quickly take it out! In addition, this There are 5,000 yuan in the envelope, which I also saved and hidden."

Zhou Chongguang's daughter-in-law was stunned for a moment and asked, "What happened?"

Zhou Chongguang did not answer, but continued: "My second brother still owes our family 3,000 yuan, and the IOU is in the drawer. Don't forget to ask for the money back!"

"There are still a lot of tobacco and alcohol in the storage room. There are seven or eight bottles of Maotai, and Wuliangye. I'm afraid I won't have a chance to drink it. Hurry up and try to sell it! It will be bad if someone finds out."

"And my two watches, the Seagull's one is worthless, but the Citizen's one is quite expensive, let's try to sell it! The camera I just bought last year is from Sony, and it can be sold for some money!"

"The blue-and-white porcelain bowl that I kept locked in the drawer was from the Zhengde period of the Ming Dynasty. It is our family heirloom. I don't think it can be kept this time, so let's sell it!"

"In all likelihood, my son will be suspended for what I'm doing this time. Remember to help your son. By the way, you have to give the money directly to your son, but not to your daughter-in-law, or else it will be cheaper for her parents' family. It's gone!"

Zhou Chongguang looked like he was explaining his funeral.

And Zhou Chongguang's daughter-in-law already understands that her husband is a big deal!

Zhou Chongguang's wife hesitated for a while, and did not ask what happened.

At this time, if you don’t know anything, it is definitely safer than knowing everything!

Zhou Chongguang spent the day in a panic, and couldn't sleep at all at night.

The next day, Zhou Chongguang came to the tractor factory with panda eyes. He almost dozed all day, but every time he dozed, he would wake up from a nightmare.

Zhou Chongguang spent three days in fear and fear, and he even practiced several times how to confess and be lenient.

However, what he imagined did not happen.

On the fourth day, when Zhou Chongguang went to work, he saw several people squatting there when he passed by the gate of the tractor factory. Zhou Chongguang took a closer look. It was the people he sent to the Agricultural Machinery Institute to speak ill of agricultural tricycles!

"Let it go!" Zhou Chongguang was shocked, got out of the car immediately, and walked over.

"Director Zhou is here!" Several people saw Zhou Chongguang and immediately got up to greet him.

"Why are you here?" Zhou Chongguang asked nervously.

"Director Zhou, we're here to collect money. You asked us to go to the farm machinery office, say bad things about agricultural tricycles, and then say good things about your tractors, and then give us the money. We did as you said. , you don't turn your face and don't make people angry!" The man in the lead said.

"But you were all caught! By the way, what did they ask? Did you confess me?" Zhou Chongguang asked eagerly.

The farmer at the head was stunned for a moment, then looked at Zhou Chongguang carefully, and asked in a low voice, "Director Zhou, I can't see it, so you are also mining river sand privately!"

"What is private mining of river sand? What does private mining of river sand have to do with me?" Zhou Chongguang asked a question.

"You didn't mine river sand privately, why are you worried that we'll give you out?" the man asked rhetorically.

"I don't know about the private mining of river sand." Zhou Chongguang shook his head and then asked; "Tell me, what's going on?"

"We were called to the police station because we helped those people who were privately mining river sand to transport sand." The leader paused, then said, "But we really don't know that privately mining river sand is illegal, and we also Provided clues about private mining of river sand, it was considered a meritorious performance, and we were released back."

Zhou Chongguang blinked: "That is to say, you were arrested and have nothing to do with me?"

"Why it has nothing to do with you. If you didn't let us go to the agricultural machinery station and speak ill of agricultural tricycles, would we be arrested? It has nothing to do with you now, do you want to repay the debt?" Put on a stance to beat someone.

"Don't worry, I've asked the matter clearly, and I'll give you the money!" Zhou Chongguang didn't want to be beaten, so he said quickly; "Don't worry, I promise you, I won't lose a penny!"

After paying a sum of money and sending these farmers away, Zhou Chongguang immediately returned to the office and began to read the "Qinghe Daily" of the past few days.

Finally, Zhou Chongguang found such a piece of news:

"The Public Security Brigade of the Municipal Public Security Bureau received reports from the public that some people were illegally mining river sand within the management area of ​​the Baijiagou River in Zengling County. After learning the clues, the Public Security Brigade of the Municipal Public Security Bureau quickly mobilized more than 30 police officers to join forces with the Zengling County Public Security Bureau. , All the more than ten suspects of illegal and criminal crimes including Li were arrested, 3 illegal sand mining sites were destroyed in one fell swoop, and 20,000 cubic meters of illegally excavated river sand were inspected.

The Squadron Leader of the Operation Squadron of the Public Security Brigade of the Municipal Public Security Bureau said that illegal sand mining has seriously endangered the safety of river flood control, destroyed the ecology of the Qinghe River, and brought many social security problems..."

After putting down the newspaper, Zhou Chongguang let out a sigh of relief, and the whole person suddenly relaxed.

"It scared me to death! It turns out that this matter has nothing to do with me, I said, a few bad words will not arrest people! I'm so scared that I haven't slept well for so many days! I even explained the funeral! "

There was no danger, Zhou Chongguang was very happy. He felt that he should celebrate, so he bought roast chicken and meat and returned home.

As soon as he entered the house, Zhou Chongguang threw the roast chicken meat on the table.

Seeing this scene, Zhou Chongguang's daughter-in-law could not help but wipe her tears. Could it be that this is the meal before entering?

"What do you want to eat, tell me directly, and I'll cook it for you." Zhou Chongguang's wife cried.

"Don't worry about it, I bought roast chicken and meat, just have this!" Zhou Chongguang replied.

"I'm going in. This last meal, I have to eat better. I'll go to the market now, kill a live fish, and buy a piece of beef..." Zhou Chongguang's wife said, put on her shoes, and was ready to go. vegetable market.

"What is the last meal, can you think of me ordering it!" Zhou Chongguang snorted dissatisfiedly, then took a test on the sofa, crossed Erlang's legs, and said happily, "I'm fine!"

"Are you all right?" Zhou Chongguang's wife was slightly taken aback.

"It's all a misunderstanding. I made a mistake and frightened myself! I just found out today that I have nothing to do with me at all!" Zhou Chongguang said with a smile.

"Then there's no need to go in?" Zhou Chongguang's wife asked again.

Zhou Chongguang pouted, and said sternly, "I didn't break the law, where did I go in? Besides, I, Zhou Chongguang, are sitting upright, so what am I afraid of!"

"Aren't you afraid? You've lost a whole circle in the past two days, don't think I don't know, you can't even sleep at night!" Zhou Chongguang's wife said as she prepared to change her shoes back.

"Don't change your shoes yet!" Zhou Chongguang stopped him: "It's okay to have food without wine, you go to the storage room and bring me that bottle of wine. I want Maotai in the second row of the shelf. I have to open the bottle today. Celebrate with a good drink!"

"Maotai? No more!" Zhou Chongguang's wife shook her head and continued, "Didn't you tell me to sell it all?"

"What about Wuliangye?" Zhou Chongguang asked again.

"Also sold!" Zhou Chongguang's wife replied.

"I've saved Maotai and Wuliangye for several years, are they all sold?" Zhou Chongguang asked eagerly.

Zhou Chongguang's wife nodded: "Not only Maotai and Wuliangye, but also Jiannanchun, Luzhou Laojiao, and Gujing Gongjiu, all of which have been sold! Not a single bottle is left!"

"All sold?" Zhou Chongguang only felt that his heart was bleeding.

Zhou Chongguang's daughter-in-law added another shot: "And those cigarettes in the storage room, such as Zhonghua, Hongtashan, Yellow Crane Tower, and Double Happiness, have also been sold. This thing sells better than wine!"

"You didn't even leave me with Double Happiness?" Zhou Chongguang whined.

Suddenly, Zhou Chongguang remembered his watch and the camera he bought last year.

"Where's my watch?" Zhou Chongguang asked subconsciously.

"The Citizen is sold, and the seagull is also wanted, but they don't want it!" replied the daughter-in-law.

"Where's Sony's camera?" Zhou Chongguang asked again.

"As you said, it's also sold!" The daughter-in-law replied.

Seeing that his daughter-in-law sold the property so efficiently, Zhou Chongguang suddenly felt a bad feeling in his heart, and he thought of his family heirloom.

"Don't you sell my family heirloom, the blue-and-white porcelain bowl from the Zhengde period of the Ming Dynasty?" Zhou Chongguang asked.

Zhou Chongguang's wife shook her head: "That one is not for sale!"

"Huh!" Zhou Chongguang let out a sigh of relief, this family heirloom was saved anyway!

However, Zhou Chongguang's daughter-in-law said: "I originally took it to sell, but people said that the bowl was fake, not from the Ming Dynasty at all, it was imitated in the 1930s, there are many things on the market, but it is not worth a few Money! People don't charge it at all!"

"What? The family heirloom is fake!" Zhou Chongguang immediately collapsed on the sofa.

The news is worse than the heirloom being sold!

Selling family heirlooms can leave a lot of money.

The heirlooms are fake these days and the money has flown away!
