Gu Tianming continued to the members: "After we personally went to Lazi Mountain to investigate, we found that all the stones we dug out were weathered stones. If these stones are used on the dam of the reservoir, once a flash flood breaks out and the embankment collapses, the consequences will be disastrous! So!

We need to take captains Liu Tongwen and Zhao Menglin back to conduct further investigation on this matter!"

"I'm not convinced! Let's not talk about whether I knew that Tiger Lao Qi was breaking stones in the Lizi Mountain. It's not right to break the weathered stones in the Lizi Mountain!" Lai Wen heard that he was being taken away, and he immediately became anxious.

"What's wrong?" Gu Tianming asked.

"There is definitely something wrong with the blastholes fired by Hu Laoqi. No stones were drilled out of Mount Lizi at all. Where did the weathered stones come from?" Lai Wen asked rhetorically.

"Okay! Since you have doubts, I will convince you! Comrade Tang Pengfei, you are a veteran in blasting in our commune. Come and tell us the results of the Lazishan investigation!" Gu Tianming said to Tang Pengfei who was accompanying him.

"After careful inspection, I found that there are no problems with the blastholes and detonation methods of Lizi Mountain. The main problem is that Lizi Mountain is not suitable for stone quarries. Its surface layer is made of weathered stones, and the stones below are too hard and are not suitable for use at all.

Suitable for mining!" Tang Pengfei said.

"Well! Comrade Tang Pengfei's analysis is very professional! In addition, in order to obtain evidence, we brought back a basket of stones from Lazi Mountain. Now let everyone see what these stones look like!" Gu Tianming waved his hand and made two

Someone brought over a large basket of stones and dumped them on the ground.

"Everyone, come and take a look!" Gu Tianming waved to the members.

Everyone came over and saw the weathered stones on the ground, and started talking about it.

Lai Wen didn't go to Lizi Mountain, and he didn't know whether Hu Lao Qi had hit the stone or not. He pushed through the crowd and squeezed in. When Lai Wen saw the stone on the ground, he lifted one up with suspicion, looked at it carefully, and then threw it away.

He picked up another piece and stared blankly at the weathered stone in his hand, saying nothing for a long time.

"How about it, Captain Liu? Can such stones be used on the reservoir dam?" Gu Tianming asked coldly.

"It can't be used! But I didn't say that the stones we dug out would be used to build the reservoir!" How could Lai Wen be so easy to catch?

"Hmph! Even now, you are still shirking your responsibilities. You are hopeless! You spent a lot of manpower and material resources to go to Lizi Mountain to dig out unusable stones. What are your intentions? Where are you going to use these stones?" Gu Tianming Yi

He looked very angry.

"I didn't know that the rocks in Lizi Mountain were in this condition. At most, I was responsible for negligence!" Lai Wen didn't want to be accused of deliberately using weathered stones to build the reservoir.

"This is because we received the report and stopped your criminal behavior in time, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable! Here, I would like to commend Comrade Lao Miao who dared to fight against the evil forces. If he had not reported it with his real name, we would still be in trouble.

In the drum! Come on! Everyone applauds and pays tribute to this old comrade!" Gu Tianming first applauded Miao University, and the members who didn't know what was going on also applauded.

"Miao Da! I* your mother, you are so damn cruel. You talk nonsense everywhere and stab you in the back!" Lai Wen looked at Miao Da, his eyes blazing.

"Bah! You scum! I just want to fight against insidious bad guys like you!" Miao Da didn't expect that Gu Tianming would push him to the front desk, but when the matter was over, he simply started to fight with Lai Wen.

Lai Wen looked at Miao Da viciously with snake-like eyes, his face was ashen, and he stopped arguing pointlessly.

"Okay, that's it for now. You all go and get busy! Liu Tongwen and Zhao Menglin will go back to the commune with us for further investigation!" Gu Tianming achieved his goal and called for gold to withdraw his troops.

Seeing Gu Tianming and his party walking away, everyone was talking a lot. Xiaolan looked at the back of Hu Laoqi who was walking away with worried eyes.

In the afternoon, Hu Laoqi returned safe and sound, while Lai Wen was locked up for further examination.

Early the next morning, the brigade sent people to Xiaolizitun to announce that Xiao Chengzi had taken over and took over Lai Wen's position as captain. This time, the overt and covert fight between Hu Lao Qi and Lai Wen came to an end with Hu Lao Qi's victory.

After the grain harvest was completed and the public grain tasks were met, each member of the northern team was given an average of more than 100 kilograms of corn. This made the members who had worked hard for a year feel sad. These rations would not last for the next year's new grain no matter what.

, this means that in the coming year, everyone will have to tighten their belts and live hungry for a long time.

Xiao Chengzi discussed with Zhang Weijun, who was promoted to deputy captain, and planned to distribute the dried wild vegetables and dried fish they had stored when building the East River to all members of the team. However, after discussing with several members who participated in the reserve, everyone decided not to do it.

"Why should we share with everyone what we have worked so hard for? I don't agree!" Someone objected directly.

"I don't agree with that either!" another person echoed,

…

Xiao Chengzi saw that no one was willing to split up, so he nodded and said: "I know what everyone is thinking, and I understand everyone's thoughts, but we are a production team after all, and we can't watch someone starve to death, right? I

I won’t let everyone’s work go in vain, I will give everyone corresponding work points!”

"Work points are useless? Can work points support hunger?" This year's work points are not valuable, and no one cares about them at all.

"If you believe me, just do what I say! If you can't exchange these work points for money in the next year, you will blame me. I am just selling iron, and I will personally compensate you for these work points!" Xiao Chengzi said sincerely.

Everyone was relieved when they saw that Xiao Chengzi had spoken to this extent. Xiao Chengzi then successfully distributed the dried wild vegetables and fish to everyone.

Although these dried wild vegetables and dried fish cannot completely solve the food problem, as long as everyone budgets carefully and makes do with it, they can still maintain food supply in the coming year.

After Hu Laoqi's efforts, the relationship between Hu Laoqi and Xiaolan has also improved. Hu Laoqi not only rushed to do all the heavy work at home, but also insisted on escorting Xiaolan out for medical visits, which made Xiaolan have a deep hatred for Hu Laoqi.

Xiaolan's sense of rejection has faded a lot. Xiaolan also started to bring out Hu Laoqi's rice when cooking, but she didn't let Hu Laoqi eat with her in the east courtyard. Despite this, Hu Laoqi could eat it every day.

After a hot meal, I still felt the warmth of home.

One day in early winter, after Hu Laoqi had heated the kangs in the two courtyards and was preparing to take a rest, an uninvited guest came.

This man was riding a sidecar motorcycle and shouted Hu Lao Qi's name outside the gate. Hu Lao Qi heard someone calling him and ran out quickly.

By the light of the motorcycle, Hu Laoqi recognized that the person who came was none other than Boss Huang's subordinate - Big Baldy.

"Lao Qi, come with me quickly!" The big bald man said anxiously to Hu Lao Qi.

"What is this black guy doing?" asked Tiger Lao Qi.
