Siheyuan: Starting from a Truck Driver

But he thought of Li Weidong's contribution to the Nantai Collective Farm, gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, let Zhuangzhuang stay with you and take him away!"

Li Weidong was confused as he listened nearby. Who is this Zhuangzhuang?

Niu Meng is straightforward. If he encounters a question he doesn't understand, he will ask directly: "Director, what is that Zhuangzhuang you are talking about?"

Cui Shanhe laughed and replied, "Oh, that's the fattest pig in our farm. Each pig has its own number, and the fattest one is our Zhuangzhuang. Lao Niu, how much did Lao Wang and the others say this pig weighed last time?"

Cui Daniu gestured and said: "It weighs a full 180 kilograms!"

Niu Meng exclaimed: "Wow, it's really heavy!"

In the 1960s, fine-bred pigs had not yet been introduced. The pigs raised at that time were local pigs with black hair, which grew and reproduced much slower than fine-bred pigs.

The biggest reason is poverty. People can’t even feed themselves, so how can they have extra food to feed pigs?

It is very rare to gain more than 100 kilograms in a year, and a weight of 180 kilograms is indeed amazing.

Niu Meng pulled at the corner of Li Weidong's clothes and winked at him, indicating that he should agree quickly.

In this case, it would be difficult to find it even with a lantern.

However, Li Weidong calmly slapped Niu Meng's hand away and said to Cui Shanhe seriously: "Director, transporting grain is originally a task assigned by our factory, and repairing farm machinery is just a favor. It is not easy for farmers to raise a pig, how can I take it away?"

Cui Shanhe admired Li Weidong even more. In this era, how many people can resist the ** of a fat pig?

Although Li Weidong in front of him is young and handsome, he is very stable, broad-minded and not boastful. Such qualities indicate that he has a promising future.

"Master Li, what are you talking about? This pig is for the steel mill. It's public property, not for you personally. You can take it back without worry. I will explain it to the factory director when I get back."

Li Weidong shook his head and said to Cui Shanhe helplessly, but he was already very happy in his heart. If he could bring this pig back and let himself pick a few pounds of fat meat to eat, it would be the icing on the cake.

If you want to help, you should help to the end, and there will naturally be a lot of benefits.

In the next few days, Li Weidong and Niu Meng frequently traveled between the riverbank and the commune, constantly providing help and winning everyone's respect.

Cui Daniu formally became Li Weidong's apprentice and learned agricultural machinery maintenance technology.

Rewritten version:

"Come on, get in the car," Li Weidong called to Master Liang and Niu Meng, who sat on the truck together. Master Liang sat in the cockpit, while Niu Meng stood in the back seat. Li Weidong started the truck, stepped on the accelerator lightly, and began to reverse slowly. As the truck reversed, Master Liang felt the rear of the truck hit the truck, and he immediately spoke up. At the same time, the strong young man in the car also noticed the abnormality of the vehicle, and he shouted loudly.

Liang Ladi, the apprentice of Master Liang, heard the shouting and couldn't help but wonder, so she curiously asked Niu Meng next to her: "Xiao Niu, did you bring back a pig?"

After hearing this, Niu Meng excitedly explained: "Master, this is a gift from Nantai Commune. They sent it to express their gratitude."

Liang Ladi listened and showed envy on her face. There were many people in the factory and few things. If a pig was divided equally, each person might only get a few pieces of meat, but in that era, such treatment was enough to satisfy people. Liang Ladi thought that now she was also going to Nantai Commune to help. If Nantai Commune also gave her a pig to show its gratitude, it would be really satisfying.

Soon, her daughter Xiu'er's birthday was approaching. Liang Ladi thought that she had never celebrated Xiu'er's birthday, and if she could let Xiu'er eat pork, the child would definitely be very happy.

Just as Liang Ladi was deep in thought, Li Weidong's voice disrupted her thoughts: "Master Liang, Master Niu, you two..."

Liang Ladi immediately came to her senses and responded: "Okay!"

Then, Liang Ladi and Niu Meng stood on their own sides and counted in unison. In the car, Li Weidong and Xiao Meng put the car in gear, ready to go at any time.

"One, two, three, pull!" Following the command of "pull", Li Wei suddenly stepped on the accelerator.

With a loud roar, the two trucks drove forward side by side, their tires rubbing against the yellow earth, and dust flew up. Niu Meng immediately stopped Li Weidong, in case he fell down, it might be her own figure. After releasing the brake, Li Weidong jumped off the truck, looked at the pit, and shook his head.

After looking around, Li Weidong found a big rock on the roadside. Although he couldn't move the rock, he could roll it into the pit. Xiao Meng had just gotten out of the car and saw this scene, so he came to help immediately. They pushed the rock into the pit with all their strength. Although it was a bit of a hindrance, the next vehicle would not get stuck in it again.

Li Weidong brushed off the dust on his body and said with satisfaction: "Done!"

Xiao Meng took out a pack of cigarettes and wanted to give it to Li Weidong, but Li Weidong immediately dodged him, frowned, and asked, "What are you doing?"

"Brother Li, you have helped me a lot, so of course I have to express my gratitude. This cigarette was given to me by someone when I was on a long-distance trip last time. I don't smoke, so I'll give it to you." Xiao Meng insisted on giving it to Li Weidong.

Li Weidong stepped back quickly and said seriously: "Go away, we are friends, how can you take things? Listen carefully, take it back immediately. If you do this again next time, I won't recognize you anymore!"

Xiao Meng had no choice but to put away the cigarette. At this time, Master Liang and Niu Meng also came over. When they saw this scene, although they felt that the atmosphere was a little wrong, they did not ask much.

Li Weidong turned around and said, "Okay, let's get together again when we get back to Beijing. We have to hurry now. There's something wrong with the riverbank in Nantai Commune. Although I've fixed the farm machinery, I don't have the tools for the other machines. I can only put them aside for now and continue repairing them when you come back."

Master Liang's face lit up with joy when she heard this. She was worried that her skills would be useless there, and that would be a waste of the trip.

"Okay, then let's go back to Beijing and meet again. Li Weidong, Niu Meng, I hope you have a safe journey back home."

"Have a safe journey, see you in the capital!"

After Li Weidong and Niu Meng said goodbye to Xiao Meng and Liang Ladi, they set out on their journey back to Beijing. Along the way, they were all thinking about how to solve the problem. When they were about ten kilometers away from Beijing, Li Weidong reported his safety through a hand-cranked telephone. After hearing this, the female captain excitedly waited for their arrival.

After they arrived in Beijing, Li Weidong told the female team leader the news, and she immediately organized everyone to gather outside the factory. Everyone was very excited when they received the news, and they celebrated with firecrackers and gongs and drums. They all wanted to taste the pork brought by Nantai Commune, and some were still discussing how to cook these pigs.

At this time, Yi Zhonghai also wanted to join them, but he was worried that they would not be able to share the pork equally. At this time, Liu Dahai made a suggestion, saying, "Look, if we get the pork, there will definitely be many people in our courtyard who will feel jealous. As the housekeepers of the courtyard, shouldn't we share this responsibility?"

When Yi Zhonghai heard this proposal, he immediately came up with an idea. His eyes lit up, knowing that this might be an opportunity to make something of himself. So he asked maliciously, "Liu Dahai, do you have any plans of your own?"

When Liu Dahai heard this, he smiled awkwardly, but remained calm and said, "No, no, I just think that there should be someone in our hospital who can speak for the public."

When Yi Zhonghai heard this, he thought this person's idea made sense, so he asked, "So what are you going to do?"

"I think that after we distribute the pork, we will give it to families who are in difficult circumstances so that they can also feel our warmth," Liu Dahai replied.

When Yi Zhonghai heard the proposal, he thought it was a good idea, so he nodded in agreement and said he would help him.

Liu Dahai saw that Yi Zhonghai had fallen into deep thought and realized that his plan had succeeded. He couldn't help but smile triumphantly. Li Weidong, I'm so sorry, it's because you got the most meat!

At this time, Li Weidong had just got off the car, and Director Yang and Deputy Director Li immediately came forward and shook his hand cordially. "Comrade Li Weidong, you have made great contributions to our factory this time! Director Cui of Nantai Commune sent us a thank-you letter, praising you for not only saving the people of the entire commune, but also uncovering the bad guys hidden inside. You have fully demonstrated the spirit of our rolling mill of being helpful, united and cooperative. We have decided in a meeting to record a great contribution for you and give you substantial rewards. I hope you can keep up the good work." Director Yang said while patting Li Weidong's hand.

"This is all thanks to the good leadership of our leaders. I represent the image of the steel mill, and I dare not slack off in the slightest!" Li Weidong said firmly.

These words made Director Yang and other leaders have a better impression of Li Weidong. How could people not like an employee who brings honor to the company and knows how to give up his credit?

Nantai Commune has also informed them that they will report this flood relief work as a model of cooperation between workers and farmers. As one of the heroes, Li Weidong will definitely be praised and rewarded, and may even be honored as one of the top ten outstanding young people in the district!

The rolling mill was also very proud of this, and Li Weidong would definitely get extra points in the annual performance appraisal. Director Yang looked at Li Weidong with satisfaction and said, "Good! Comrade Li Weidong, you have a high level of awareness. Go back and prepare. When the meeting starts, you can give a report and tell us about your experience in detail so that everyone can learn from you!" Li Weidong scratched his head and said, "Director, I have never done this before. I am afraid of saying the wrong thing."

Director Yang waved his hand without any concern: "Isn't Comrade Yu Haitang from the radio station your sister-in-law? You two should work out a speech together."

"Well... okay." Although Li Weidong seemed a little embarrassed on the surface, he was very happy inside. This was a rare opportunity to show off. If he could really get the title of the top ten outstanding young people in the district as Director Yang said, then he would have an extra layer of protection.
