Rebirth 1979: Marrying a poor girl at the beginning

Wei Shuangxi said: "Okay, let's do it!"

Now the factory has gradually returned to regular operation. For example, the canteen is equipped with not only flour, meat and vegetables, but also two boxes of wine and two packs of cigarettes.

After all, who knows when a leader will come to inspect, so good cigarettes and good wine must always be available.

“Also, prepare the car!”

Lin Zhengjun said: "Use both tractors of the brigade and seven mule-drawn carts. Raise the frame of the mule-drawn carts and cover them with three layers of plastic sheeting. The fish should live as long as possible. If they die, they will stink after a long time!"

“Have you prepared these materials?”

Lin Zhengjun scratched his head.

Because he was very busy during this period and enjoyed the feeling of being a hands-off boss, he forgot to arrange this matter.

"I've prepared it!"

Wei Shuangxi smiled and said, "Some time ago, when I was making furniture for our factory office, I took into consideration the possibility of fishing, so I modified the cart!"

"Okay, good job!"

Lin Zhengjun patted Wei Shuangxi's shoulder appreciatively.

This guy has really strong production and organizational skills, and he knows how to plan for everything in advance.

Then, everyone went to prepare the tractors and carts.

Zou Chunfang took a few female employees to the kitchen to make white flour pancakes, brought two cans of spicy fish, and filled a kettle with boiled water. That was all!

Half an hour later everything was ready and we set off.

This time, Lin Zhengjun asked Wei Shuangxi and Zou Chunfang to go together.

Let them meet with the leaders of the reservoir aquaculture company. After all, it is the first time they are dealing with each other, and having more people will show that they are taken seriously.

Once the relationship is established, it will be easier to deal with each other in the future.

"Alas, this truck bed is still too small. It can only hold two to three thousand kilograms. In addition to water, it can hold several hundred kilograms of fish. I have to contact the agricultural machinery station and get a few more tractors." Lin Zhengjun said as he sat in the tractor bed.

"Can we, as a collective cooperative, also operate tractors?" Lin Tiedan, who was driving a tractor, said excitedly.

It is absolutely not allowed to buy a truck. That is called a transport vehicle. Individuals are absolutely not allowed to buy it. Even if a group is eligible to buy it, it will not be your turn because the transport capacity of state-owned enterprises is insufficient.

Besides, the cost is too high. After all, collective food cooperatives don’t have that much money now.

Tractors can also be used to haul goods, but since they are agricultural machinery, there are no policy barriers.

You can purchase it in the name of the brigade and use it in the collective cooperative.

It was not until the "Several Provisions on the Purchase of Motor Vehicles, Ships and Tractors by Individual Farmers or Joint Households to Operate in the Transport Industry" promulgated on February 1984, 2 that the legality of private purchase of vehicles for transportation was clearly stipulated.

"Zhengjun has very strong connections in our Huaibian County. There's nothing he can't get for him!" Wei Shuangxi said with a smile.

Hewan Brigade is sixty or seventy miles away from Donghu Reservoir, and the mules and horses pulling the carts cannot run fast at all.

By noon, we had only walked half the distance.

Everyone was very anxious. After all, in addition to their collective cooperative, there were other units that needed fish. If they went too late, they might miss all the fish.

However, these days, everyone is very kind to livestock, and they still stop by the roadside to give the livestock water and feed them soybeans and bran.

Everyone ate noodles and drank water with the spicy fish.

Then we headed towards our destination, and after a period of hurried pace, we finally arrived at the Donghu Reservoir at two o'clock in the afternoon.

Then everyone saw a shocking scene.

Dozens of trucks were parked on the riverbank, all of which were vehicles from the city's major state-owned department stores and supply and marketing cooperatives. Many purchasing staff and porters were smoking and chatting.

In addition, several tables were set up with scales next to them, and several reservoir weighers and financial personnel were sitting or standing beside the tables.

Lin Zhengjun and his team's convoy looked very shabby against the backdrop of these steel behemoths, just like the contrast in size between the private economy and the state-owned economy in this era.

While looking for a place to park, everyone looked at the reservoir curiously.

On the vast expanse of sparkling water, fishing boats slowly started up with the sound of loud whistles.

The roar of the engine broke the tranquility of the water.

The fishermen on the boat, wearing waterproof clothes and hats, skillfully operated various fishing equipment and slowly sunk the huge trawl net into the water. The trawl net was like a giant dragon, slowly cruising underwater, searching for those fat fish.

"This fish is so big, it must weigh at least 20 kilograms!" Lin Tiedan exclaimed.

Everyone looked around curiously.

At this time, a net of fish was slowly pulled onto the boat. The fish were jumping in the net, their silver scales sparkling, and they looked particularly dazzling in the sun.

The fishermen skillfully sorted their catch and put the lively fish into buckets that had been prepared in advance.

Fish that are undersized or otherwise unnecessary are gently released back into the water, allowing them to continue growing freely in the water.

Zou Chunfang went out to chat with the drivers and freight masters for a few words, and when he came back, he said worriedly: "Zhengjun, we are late. It turns out that the queue is based on the order of first come first served. I am afraid I will be the last one."

"Don't worry. As long as there are fish, it's fine. With such a large reservoir, we can't catch all the fish even if we fish for ten days."

There was a small courtyard standing on the river bank. Lin Zhengjun picked up his briefcase and strolled over to take a look. He saw a sign with black letters on a white background that read "Reservoir Management Office" and walked over.

Now all units, big or small, have security departments and doormen.

The yard is not big, with only three rows of houses in front and back, but there is also a guard room, where a little old man is listening to a radio.

Lin Zhengjun was about to say hello when he heard a voice coming from the radio.

"Liaoning Provincial People's Broadcasting Station, now is the time for continuous novel broadcasting. Dear listeners, starting from today at this time, we will continuously broadcast the novella "The Shepherd", written by Chu Kuangren, and narrated by announcer Comrade Wang Gang..."

After the female voice’s program introduction.

A bright and magnetic voice immediately followed, "He is a son abandoned by the rich. - Victor Hugo's "Les Miserables". In the first chapter, Xu Lingjun did not expect to see his father again..."

Lin Zhengjun didn't pay much attention when he first heard the introduction. It was only after the male voice narrating the novel had been talking for almost two minutes that he reacted.

Isn’t this Heshen!

No wonder this voice sounds so familiar.

Hey, Mr. He, you smashed someone's authentic antique vase on the show. Did you compensate them?

Actor Wang Gang was not actually an actor at first.

Wang Gang joined a provincial military art troupe in 1969. In 1977, he broadcast the novel "The Gadfly" for China National Radio. He is now considered a well-known figure in the domestic radio novel broadcasting industry.

A few years later, he would join the ranks of hosts, and it was not until the 1990s that he entered the field of actor and became famous through the TV series "Prime Minister Liu Luoguo".

Lin Zhengjun couldn't help but smile as he listened to the broadcast on the radio.

Really interesting.

Otherwise, why do people say that entertainment is a circle?

The security guard was listening fascinatedly, so Lin Zhengjun didn't dare to greet him.

After the first episode, the security guard exclaimed, "Oh, this novel is really touching, but it's too short!"

Lin Zhengjun lit up a Zhonghua cigarette and said with a smile, "Sir, is Manager Wan here?"

The security guard took the cigarette and saw that it was a Zhonghua. His emotions became visibly excited and he asked, "Here, who are you?"

Lin Zhengjun smiled and said, "I am Lin Zhengjun from the Hewan Brigade Collective Cooperative. The song "Horse Herder" that you just listened to was written by me."
