Reborn in 1977

The question of whether Chen Fan had any money left, and how much, was probably a question only he himself knew the answer to.

Ye Shubao, however, was somewhat worried, and said while smoking, "It's fine if you don't want it, it's just that I don't have much money here either, and the other brigades are all watching me, so it's hard to give it to anyone."

Chen Fan blinked, "What do you mean?"

Anquan laughed from the side, "What do you mean? It means you're in debt, of course!"

Ye Shubao exhaled a puff of smoke and said with emotion, "This time, Lujiawan has also gambled all its assets."

As he spoke, he counted on his fingers, "We've searched all over the Ganjiacun Brigade, Shengli Brigade, Hongxing Brigade, Bailanghu Brigade, and several nearby hatcheries, and ordered more than 10,000 chicks, more than 2,000 ducklings, and more than 1,000 goslings, almost buying up all of their production for this year. In addition, we also ordered 37 mule, horse, donkey, and calf offspring, and also a lot of pigs and sheep."

He looked at Chen Fan quietly, "You say you're in debt, but compared to the brigade headquarters, aren't you far behind?!"

Chen Fan was stunned for a moment, and immediately grabbed the abacus on the table to calculate.

The wholesale price of chicks is 14 to 16 cents, averaging 15 cents, so more than 10,000 chicks would be 1,500 yuan, and another 3,000 ducklings and goslings would be slightly more expensive, say 600 yuan, which is more than 2,000 yuan. The offspring of cattle and horses are about 50 yuan each, so 37 would be 1,850 yuan, plus a lot of piglets and lambs.

This casual calculation is Chen Fan's entire house!

And this doesn't even include the money he sold the rabbits to the team for.

Don't think that the production team is rich just because it has abundant products. It's still the same old saying, the price difference between industry and agriculture is too big. A warehouse of grain can't be exchanged for a cart of cloth. For example, Chen Fan can use twenty or thirty pottery stoves to exchange for more than a thousand catties of rice and hundreds of catties of rice, as well as many other supplies.

So no matter how good the harvest is, it can only guarantee food and clothing, and no money is no money.

Otherwise, Secretary Yang and the others wouldn't be trying to engage in sideline businesses.

Looking at the brigade headquarters and then at himself, Chen Fan suddenly felt that he was quite rich. He glanced sideways at Ye Shubao, secretly guarding himself, wouldn't Captain Ye be asking him for money?

Although he still had more than 800 yuan in his pocket, that was money at the bottom of the box, and it wouldn't be good to take it out.

Ye Shubao didn't know what he was thinking in his heart. Seeing that Chen Fan didn't want to settle the bill in advance, he also went along with the flow and agreed. Then, he and Anquan discussed how to arrange these poultry and livestock that were being delivered one after another.

Chickens, ducks, and geese definitely had to be distributed, but how to distribute them had to have rules.

Whether to distribute them equally, or to distribute them according to the proportion of the population, or to distribute them according to last year's contribution, all of these had to be considered, otherwise disputes would be inevitable.

How should large livestock such as mules, horses, donkeys, and cattle be distributed? How much should the brigade keep for itself, and how much should it distribute to the teams below, was also important.

Then there were the rabbits that Chen Fan sold, when to pick them up, and how to arrange them after bringing them back. Finally, there was the wasteland forage within the scope of the production team, how to harvest the public land, and how to harvest the land distributed to families...

They had to discuss these things one by one, and then discuss them with Secretary Yang, Team Leader Zhang, and Team Leader Xiao.

The two of them discussed seriously, and Chen Fan knocked on the side, supplementing the details little by little. Before long, Anquan had written several pages of paper.

After writing down the regulations that the three of them had just discussed, Anquan folded the paper and said, "We'll wait for Secretary Yang and the others to come back later and ask them to take a look. If there are no problems, we'll do it this way. The sooner we implement it, the sooner we can generate benefits."

It's not just the market economy that talks about benefits, this era also talks about it, and it also attaches great importance to it. This year's newspapers have repeatedly mentioned that economic development should be brought back to the right track, so it's only natural for Anquan to talk about benefits.

Hearing Anquan's words, Ye Shubao nodded and was about to speak when the phone on the table suddenly rang.

He was stunned for a moment, and then straightened his posture, extremely solemnly, but also cautiously, picked up the microphone, and held it to his ear with both hands, "Hello, this is the Lujiawan Production Brigade, who are you looking for?"

Chen Fan leaned back in his chair, leisurely drinking tea, watching Ye Shubao's face change from smiling to astonished, then to surprised with suspicion, and finally to overjoyed.

If this scene were made into a movie, I wouldn't dare say that he would definitely win the Best Actor award, but at least he could guarantee a Best Actor nomination!

"Okay, okay, okay, I understand, I will definitely convey it to him, and guarantee to complete the task, goodbye!"

Ye Shubao said while nodding, and after speaking, he forgot to put the microphone down gently, and slammed it on the telephone.

Hearing the sound, he felt a little distressed, but he couldn't care so much at this time, and immediately stood up and said to Chen Fan, "Little Chen, you've made another great contribution!"

Chen Fan held the tea mug, blinked his eyes and looked at him in confusion, "What do you mean?"

What did I do again? To make a great contribution?!

Anquan was also full of curiosity, looking at Chen Fan, and then looking at Ye Shubao, "What did he do?"

Ye Shubao gestured with both hands, his face full of excitement, "The Prefectural Health Department is going to publish a book for you, wouldn't you say you've made a great contribution!"

What the hell?

Chen Fan's mouth gradually widened, his eyes blurred, and his mind was a mess, "The Health Department is going to publish a book for me?"

What's up? Do the leaders of the Health Department also like to read my 'On the Field of Hope'?

But the first article hasn't even been finished yet, and they're already going to publish a book for me?

The key is that there are too few words to sell for a good price...

While Chen Fan was full of wild thoughts, Ye Shubao slapped the table with his palm, and said to him with an excited face, "You forgot, first aid knowledge!"

Hearing this, Chen Fan couldn't help but be even more confused.

First aid knowledge?

Besides teaching the 12 veterinarians, and Zhang Juemin, the barefoot doctor, I didn't tell anyone else, let alone alarm the Prefectural Health Department, who leaked it?

At this time, Anquan was also anxious, pointing at Ye Shubao and saying, "Calm down first, who was on the phone just now, what did he say, tell me again in detail."

Ye Shubao immediately pointed to the phone and said, "Just now, it was Wang Hai, the director of the commune health center, who called. He said that just 10 days ago, Zhang Juemin, our team's barefoot doctor, went to him and gave him a notebook..."

Hearing this, Chen Fan understood what was going on, and at the same time got verification from Ye Shubao.

It was Zhang Juemin who recorded the first aid knowledge he had taught, on the one hand, he wanted to ask the health center for verification, and on the other hand, he might have been thinking of promoting this first aid knowledge, so he went to Wang Hai, the director.

Then, Director Wang used the notebook submitted by Zhang Juemin as material and quickly reorganized a document and reported it to the Gufeng County Health Department. The leaders of the County Health Department felt that this was a good thing. If they reported it and promoted it, it would be a very good resume for everyone. They sent it to the Prefectural Health Department almost the same day.

After receiving the reported materials, the leaders of the Prefectural Committee Health Department immediately gave them the highest priority. They verified some of the unused first aid methods in the emergency departments of various health centers and hospitals under the Prefectural Committee.

Among them, the "Airway Foreign Body Removal Method" achieved remarkable results in just a few days of practice, saving many critically ill patients and immediately turning danger into safety, which has very high promotional value.

Other first aid methods were also verified one by one, confirming that they were all "true and effective."

After obtaining the results, the leaders of the Health Department couldn't sit still. They immediately made phone calls level by level. Finally, the task fell to Director Wang of Nanhai Health Center, requesting him to immediately invite Chen Fan, the "founder" of this set of first aid methods, to visit the Prefectural Committee.

Firstly, to personally teach them the specific first aid methods, ensuring that every technique was accurate and correct. Secondly, they wanted to invite him to work with experts from major hospitals of the Prefectural Committee to compile this first aid manual into a book, which would be more conducive to promotion.

After explaining the cause and effect, Ye Shubao, with a face full of excitement, clasped his hands tightly and walked back and forth in the open space behind his desk, "Oh my, this is amazing! Not only are you going to the Prefectural Committee to teach first aid knowledge, but you're also going to publish a book. Xiao Chen, oh Xiao Chen, our Lujiawan Production Team has been established for decades, and you are the first one!"

Chen Fan blinked, his lips蠕动ed a few times, spitting out the tea leaves he had accidentally swallowed, and looked at him, saying, "So, I'm going to the Prefectural Committee? Is this for real?"

Upon hearing his words, Ye Shubao immediately turned around, leaned on the desk with both hands, and glared at him, saying, "Don't tell me you're not going?"

Anquan was also anxious, and immediately said to Chen Fan, "Now is not the time to be capricious, and you can't refuse to go for any other reason. Captain Ye just said that this matter has been approved by Secretary Qian of the Commune and has received the collective attention of the Commune leaders. There will definitely be no obstacles in the itinerary.

The key is that your book is for treating illnesses and saving people. If this book can really be published, allowing more people to see it, learn the knowledge in it, and save more people, that would be a great merit.

You must take the lead in this kind of thing and you must go!"

Chen Fan looked at him and said blankly, "I didn't say I wouldn't go, it's just that I didn't expect..."

He stopped there.

Anquan and Ye Shubao stared at him together, "Didn't expect what?"

Chen Fan pursed his lips, "Nothing."

But in his heart, he was thinking, of course, I didn't expect that the opportunity to go to the Prefectural Committee would suddenly appear before my eyes.

He had been thinking a few days ago that when he had the opportunity to go to the county, it would be best if he could also go to the Prefectural Committee, instead of staying in the village all the time and not knowing what was going on outside.

As a result, before he could think of an excuse, the opportunity was delivered to his door. Isn't this a coincidence!

Hearing Chen Fan's words, Anquan curled his lips in disdain, "I hate people who only say half of what they want to say the most."

Ye Shubao didn't care so much. As long as Chen Fan agreed to go, he immediately said, "Director Wang just said that the Prefectural Committee Health Department hopes you can go as soon as possible."

He picked up the alarm clock on the table and looked at it, then put it down and said, "It's too late for the morning bus. You can only take the 2:00 PM one. Go to the health center to get a letter of introduction first, then take the bus to the county to see if there is a bus to the Prefectural Committee. If there is, go directly there. If there isn't, stay in the county for one night and buy a ticket for the first bus tomorrow morning to go directly to the Prefectural Committee."

Chen Fan was startled, chuckled dryly twice, and said, "Leave today? Isn't that too urgent?"

Ye Shubao immediately put on a stern face, "Why isn't it urgent? Do you know what this is? This is a ZZ task directly assigned by the higher authorities! ZZ tasks cannot be delayed!"

Anquan also pointed at him from the side and said, "And it's a good thing that benefits the country and the people. You must pay attention to it!"

Ye Shubao nodded vigorously, "Yes, you must pay attention!"

Chen Fan was very helpless, but he couldn't twist them, "Then you have to let me prepare a little. Going out like this, eating and lodging will cost money, as well as the letter of introduction and food stamps. Are you going to make me pay for it myself?"

Without saying a word, Ye Shubao immediately expressed his position, "Regardless of whether the Health Department takes care of food and lodging, I will approve 50 jin of local food stamps for you, and another 20 yuan in expenses. I'll get the letter of introduction for you right away."

As he said that, he was about to go get the official seal, but he slapped his forehead, "Damn it, the official seal is with Lao Yang, and the key is also in his hands."

Anquan immediately asked, "Where did Secretary Yang go? I'll go find him right away."

Ye Shubao was so anxious that he put his hands on his hips, "Where else can he go? He must have gone to inspect the teams. God knows which small team he is in now."

Anquan was also numb when he heard this. The next second, he suddenly had an idea and pointed to the phone, saying, "Call all the small teams and let them go find him."

Chen Fan slowly stood up, pointed to the backyard, and smiled, "Why bother so much? You can go to the broadcasting station and shout with the loudspeaker, and then have the captain of the small team that Secretary Yang is in call back. Isn't that easier than you calling one by one?"

Ye Shubao thought it was right, got up and walked out, "You go home and pack your luggage first. I'll go up and call someone. Be quick."

Chen Fan pursed his lips, played with the horizontal sword wooden stick in his hand, carried it on his shoulder with his backhand, and walked out.

Alright, I won't be able to go to work today again.

No, it should be that I won't be able to go to work for the next few days.

It's not that I'm not working hard, fate is hard to defy!

He rode the horse back home triumphantly, and then he heard the radio news broadcast on the loudspeaker become quieter, followed by Zhang Cuie's voice, "Now interrupting with a notice, now interrupting with a notice. We have just received news from the Commune Health Center that our team's Teacher Chen will be invited by the Prefectural Committee Health Department to go to the Prefectural Committee to teach first aid knowledge and publish a book.

Now, because a letter of introduction needs to be opened, please Secretary Yang, upon hearing the broadcast, immediately return to the brigade headquarters to open a letter of introduction for Teacher Chen. Please note, captain of the small team that Secretary Yang is in, if Secretary Yang returns, please immediately notify Captain Ye of the brigade headquarters by phone.

Now interrupting with a notice, now interrupting with a notice, ..."

Chen Fan was riding on the horse, letting the little mare walk back, his face already stunned.

No way, I'm just going on a business trip, why does it feel like I'm going to save the world?

Are you trying to find Secretary Yang back to unlock the seal, or are you publicizing that I'm going to the Prefectural Committee?

Is it really that exaggerated?

Then, the inexplicably excited members along the way all told Chen Fan with practical actions that it was really that exaggerated!

Going to the Prefectural Committee to teach knowledge and publish a book!

Teacher Chen has brought glory to Lujiawan!
