After coming out of the laboratory, Zhou Yang asked Liu Yunlong: "Who is the person Xiao Tan didn't say?"

"She didn't say anything. She just said that the other party was a soldier. Their car drove directly into the brigade headquarters and said they were here to find you!" Liu Yunlong said.

Just now, Tan Shiqing suddenly came to the laboratory and said that he wanted to see Zhou Yang for something.

Since Zhou Yang was discussing business with Director Zhang and others, the soldier on duty could only report the situation to Liu Yunlong and ask him to inform him on his behalf.

"Where's Xiao Tan?"

"I asked her to go back first. After all, there is no one at the brigade headquarters now!" Liu Yunlong said.

"Okay, then let's go over and have a look!"

"good!"

Then the two of them strode out of the laboratory and walked towards the brigade headquarters.

When the two arrived at the brigade headquarters, they saw a row of military trucks parked at the door from a distance, more than twenty of them.

Moreover, each car was filled with things, but because the cars were covered with tarpaulins, we didn’t know what was inside.

Then Zhou Yang noticed the car's license plate. It was neither Qingcheng nor Jingcheng, but actually a local license plate.

This discovery made him a little confused!

He doesn't seem to have any contact with the local garrison. What are these people doing with him?

With deep doubts, Zhou Yang and Liu Yunlong walked into the brigade headquarters.

As soon as I walked into the courtyard of the brigade headquarters, I saw a dozen soldiers in military uniforms standing at the door, pointing around the mountains of beetroot, obviously discussing these things.

Maybe they had never seen so many beet lumps before, so they were curious.

I don't know who shouted "Comrade Zhou Yang is here", and the eyes of these soldiers immediately turned to the direction of the door.

When they saw that it was indeed Zhou Yang, the two officers-looking men immediately strode towards him with excited expressions on their faces.

After seeing these two people, Zhou Yang also felt a little incredible. The visitors turned out to be Zhang Hanwu and Anping from Dongquan Farm.

Ever since his parents were transferred away from Dongquan Farm under his control, he had cut off contact with them and never thought that they would come to visit him.

It is natural to be very happy to meet acquaintances.

"What a rare visitor, Director Zhang, Captain An, why are you here?"

Zhang Hanwu said with a smile: "We have something to go to Ning City, and we happen to pass by your Yunshan County, so we came in to see you!"

"Welcome, welcome, let's go into the house and say it!"

Zhou Yang knew that Zhang Hanwu was not telling the truth. There was no need to go to Yunshan County from Huaxian County to Ningshi. They obviously came to see him specifically.

However, Zhang Hanwu shook his head and said: "I won't go into the office. If it's convenient, I'll go to your house and sit there!"

Zhou Yang thought they had something to do and it was not convenient to talk here, so he immediately said: "Okay!"

Zhou Yang originally thought that his home was not far from the brigade headquarters and it wouldn't take long for everyone to walk there, but Zhang Hanwu forced him to get in the car.

Later, a group of people drove a motorcade to Zhou Yang's house.

.........

In the house, Li Youwei was coaxing her child to take a nap. When she heard the noise outside, she immediately got up to check the situation.

When he saw Zhou Yang walking in with Zhang Hanwu and others, he was slightly shocked.

Last year, I visited Dongquan Farm to visit my parents-in-law, and I was particularly touched by Li Youwei.

Although the Li family is not rich, she was pampered by her father and brother since she was a child, and she was very well protected.

Therefore, before I went to Dongquan Farm, I never thought that there were such poor places and people who had such a hard time surviving in this world.

In particular, the large and small graves on the hillside to the west of the farm left a deep impression on her. She also had a deep impression on most of the people on the farm, including Zhang Hanwu, the farm director, and Anping, the guard.

team leader.

Therefore, Li Youwei recognized Zhang Hanwu and Anping at the first sight.

Immediately, Li Youwei hurriedly packed her clothes, put on her shoes, went to the ground, and came out.

There was another round of pleasantries, and then Zhang Hanwu and others were invited into the room.

As soon as he entered the door, Zhang Hanwu saw two fat boys sleeping soundly on the kang. He immediately said in amazement: "Ah, I haven't seen you for more than a year. You and your siblings have actually done such a big project. Congratulations!"

Zhou Yang smiled and said: "It's really a big project. It's really tiring to pull two children!"

"I'm a little tired, but it's good that the two children can grow up together!" Zhang Hanwu said.

Anping echoed: "Even though the child is young now, it will only take a few years to grow up, but it will be fast!"

"I don't have to worry about growing up if I have a little one, but I'm worried that I won't be able to raise them, hahaha!"

After briefly chatting about the children, Zhou Yang changed the topic to the farm.

"Director Zhang, how is the situation on the farm now?"

Hearing Zhou Yang ask about the situation of the farm, Zhang Hanwu suddenly became energetic and said immediately: "Our farm is great now. Everyone despised it before, but now everyone is envious of it!"

"Oh, tell me quickly?" Zhou Yang said immediately.

"Since you helped the farm dig wells and build brick kilns last year, the farm has undergone earth-shaking changes. Now not only has there been a bumper harvest of food, but every household has built a brick house, and we no longer have to live in shacks.

I'm starving." Zhang Hanwu said.

"That's good!"

Then Zhang Hanwu said again: "In addition, because the bricks produced by our brickyard are strong and durable, our bricks are used in the county's auditoriums and warehouses. In the first half of this year, the farm earned more than 100,000 yuan from selling bricks."

"Also, after the leaders of the military division saw the quality of the bricks we burned, they handed over all the bricks used to build the new barracks and training grounds to our farm. By the end of the year, we conservatively estimate the income of the brick farm

It can reach 300,000.”

"In the past, we, Lao Zhang, were just like a beggar, looking for alms everywhere and not wanting to see anyone. But now it's different. When we get to the county town, everyone thinks I'm a big deal, but they treat me less favorably!"

Anping said with a smile: "They don't care about you, they care about the bricks from our farm!"

"It's all the same...it's all the same!"

Zhou Yang was also shocked when he heard Zhang Hanwu's words.

He knew the situation at Dongquan Farm. Counting those soldiers, there were only more than two hundred people in total.

Coupled with the transfer of some people later, the actual number may be even less.

With two hundred people and continuous agricultural production, they can earn 300,000 yuan just by burning bricks and selling bricks. This is indeed very impressive.

"We have to engage in agricultural production and burn brick kilns. Can the farm be busy with just the number of people?"

Hearing this, Director Zhang smiled and said, "Yes, our farm has a lot of people now!"

"many?"

"Well, at present, in addition to the troops, the farm has more than 800 ordinary members!"

"There are more than 800 people. How can there be so many people? It can't be..."

"Don't think too much, some of these people were merged from other farms, and the rest are all educated youth who came to Hua County to jump in the queue!" Zhang Hanwu said.

"Educated youth?"

Then Zhou Yang said again: "Is it okay for educated youths to live together with those on the farm? Is this allowed by the superiors?"

Zhou Yang knew that Dongquan Farm was a farm on the surface, but in fact it was a special prison where intellectuals who could not be convicted were imprisoned.

Putting educated youth and these people together, the scene is somewhat weird and unbelievable.

At this time, Anping on the side said: "Comrade Zhou Yang, in fact, since the end of last year, the attitude of the superiors towards the people on the farm has changed significantly, and many people have been transferred away for various reasons."

"By March this year, there were less than 60 old people left on the farm. In order to prevent the farm from being abandoned, the county immediately moved some people from Wanshan Farm and Beijiang Farm to Dongquan Farm.

"

"In addition, Hua County was severely hit by the disaster last year, and many places were unable to afford the food rations for the educated youths. After discussions, the county leaders sent more than 400 educated youths to our farm."

Zhou Yang immediately said: "So, the nature of the farm has changed now?"

"It's not stated clearly above, but in the past year, the supervision of those people has indeed been relaxed a lot. Except that they are not allowed to leave the farm at will, everything else is no different from ordinary youth members!" Zhang Hanwu said.

"This shows that the higher-ups have tacitly agreed to normalize the farms and are also deliberately downplaying the identities of those people!"

"Yes, we think so too..."

While several people were talking, suddenly Li Youwei's exclamation came from outside the house: "What are you doing... Zhou Yang, come out and take a look..."

Hearing Li Youwei's cry, Zhou Yang immediately walked out of the room!

When he came outside the house, he was immediately stunned by the scene in front of him!
Chapter completed!
