This time, Luo Xuan and Lu Miao took the shuttle bus into the county town.
The number of passengers on the shuttle bus has obviously become much less; while the number of people walking along the road suddenly increased.
only,
The few sentences that occasionally drifted into the car window with a weak foreign accent showed that most of the people rushing along the way were not local residents of Rongwei County.
In this period,
Everyone is very thrifty. Many members of the production team have never been to a hairdressing service company.
Usually, everyone uses a pair of scissors and a comb to help each other cut hair in the yard.
Anyway, just cut it shorter. As for whether it looks good or not?
Not many people care about these things.
Being poor means being particular. Being poor means being particular. If you are too poor, you cannot be particular about it.
Especially when it comes to going out, in this period, it is normal for rural people to travel dozens or hundreds of miles a day.
so,
The county seat is 27 miles away from Hongxing Commune. In order to save a few cents, many people usually walk along the main highway to the county seat on their own legs.
When I entered the county town in the past, there were many people rushing along the highway.
It's just that this time I took the car out and saw at least ten times more people walking along the way than before.
It is conceivable that
Today, Rongwei County already accommodates an unknown number of migrant populations.
So many people came in all at once.
You can also guess how much pressure leaders at all levels in Rongwei County have endured from all aspects.
When the shuttle bus drove out of Hongxing Commune, less than 15 miles away, it encountered the first checkpoint.
The shuttle bus pulled over, and several checkpoint staff members immediately came up and asked all passengers on the bus to show their "Travel Certificates".
After Luo Xuan and Lu Miao showed their respective travel certificates to each other.
Luo Xuanman was puzzled and asked the staff: "You only checked a dozen people on the bus? There were hundreds of people walking on the road.
What’s the point of checking passengers like this to prevent irrelevant people from entering the county?”
That staff member originally didn't want to answer the passengers' questions.
But when he saw the outstanding temperament of Luo Xuan and Lu Miao, he knew that these two people were probably not simple people.
so,
The staff member also answered patiently: "We were arranged by our superiors to check the passengers on the shuttle bus. As for those people walking, they are not under our control to check the shuttle bus."
bake!
This answer is really powerful!
They were asked to inspect the shuttle bus, but they just checked the people on the bus?
Don’t care about other people at all?!
It's kind of interesting...
There was a young woman on the bus. Her travel certificate was issued by a commune in another county.
Moreover, the estimated destination stated on the certificate is not Rongwei County.
so,
The woman was eventually taken off the shuttle bus by the staff and went to the checkpoint for further investigation.
The shuttle bus creaked, swayed, and groaned all the way as it continued to drive toward Rongwei County.
Waiting for the shuttle bus to arrive and approaching Chengguan Commune in the county seat.
Another checkpoint appeared ahead.
The work style of the staff who got on the bus to inspect this time was obviously much more meticulous than that at the first inspection station.
The "Travel Certificate" is no longer very useful. The staff will also ask passengers one by one for their names, addresses, where they are from, and where they plan to go.
Even passengers, what are they going to do in the county? The staff will ask them in detail about this kind of thing.
In fact, on the travel certificate,
It has been written very clearly: What is the name of the person holding this certificate and how old is it?
Are you a member of which production team, or a certain Chengguan resident?
Everything is written clearly above.
Luo Xuan guessed: The reason why the staff asked the passengers to answer so many questions was mainly to distinguish whether the passenger was a local resident or not?
Then during the conversation.
The staff can also tell from the expression on the passenger's face whether he or she is panicked or calm.
This is used to determine the authenticity of the other party’s documents and the authenticity of the language.
but,
What’s very strange is that this time the staff member who got on the bus to inspect took Lu Miao’s and her own documents and just glanced at them.
Then he looked at the expressions on the faces of Luo Xuan and Lu Miao.
He politely handed the certificate back to himself.
It seems that relying on face to make a living is feasible in any era!
By the time the two arrived at the county seat, it was already approaching noon. Rongwei County is actually not far from Jiangnei City, about a hundred miles away.
The shuttle bus leaves at 1:00 p.m.
Seeing that it was still early, Luo Xuan took Lu Miao to the restaurant attached to the county guest house and had a sumptuous lunch.
Looking at the crowds of people inside the restaurant, the bustling customers.
Just as Lu Miao was about to sigh, she was stopped by Luo Xuan: "No matter what period of time, there are staff from the unit who need to go on business trips and need to come to Rongwei County for business."
Luo Xuan said: "What they receive is the remuneration of their own labor, the wages they have earned for their hard work.
We have no control over how people spend their money. There is no need to accuse them, Lu Miao, do you think this is the case?"
Lu Miao sighed: "Actually, I also know this truth, but sometimes, I can't help but feel a little... Oh, I won't talk about it anymore."
The two of them finished their meal with mixed emotions, and then strolled to the county bus station.
Just as they arrived at the bus station, Luo Xuan was about to go in and buy her a ticket.
At this moment, there was only a "crunch" sound, and a jeep stopped at the door of the bus station.
Subsequently,
The jeep driver jumped out of the car and walked towards Lu Miao with a smile on his face.
"Uncle Zhang, didn't I tell you not to let my dad send a car to pick me up?"
Lu Miao frowned and said, "It's just a three-hour bus ride, why do you have to go through so much trouble?"
The driver named Zhang reached out from Luo Xuan's hand and helped take Lu Miao's luggage and the gift he gave to Lu Gang.
While the driver was busy,
While explaining: "Actually, I'm not here to pick you up specifically.
Didn't you call your dad yesterday and tell him that you were going to take the shuttle bus back to the city today?
It just so happened that early this morning, several comrades in the city were going back to Rongwei County after a meeting.
So after seeing these comrades off, I calculated the time and came here to pick you up. Miaomiao, don't blame your father, I really didn't come here specifically to pick you up."
Said,
The driver put a lot of things in the trunk.
Then he took out a letter from his satchel in the cab.
Passed it to Luo Xuan: "This is Comrade Lu Gang's personal letter written to you. Comrade Luo Xuan, please open it now and read it."
Open it now and take a look?
Seeing Luo Xuan's confusion, the driver quickly explained: "Comrade Lu Gang said that he would have to see your receipt before he could rest assured."
Luo Xuan heard this,
The envelope was torn open on the spot, and inside the bulging envelope, there was only a thin piece of letterhead.
Because there is a large amount of bills and cash sandwiched in the middle, this letter looks so bulging from the outside.
Luo Xuan counted the food stamps and found that there were 100 kilograms of food stamps circulating in the province.
The cash was all 10 yuan bills. After counting, it was about 300 yuan.
The cloth ticket weighs 5 feet 7, and the candy ticket weighs 2.5 kilograms.
Among the money notes included in Lu Gang's letter, the most precious one is actually not the 300 yuan.
It's not the 100 kilograms, the general food stamps in the province.
I am not short of money.
Now in the space, I have saved more than 30,000 yuan. There are still 67,000 to 70,000 kilograms of grain left, and I haven't had time to get rid of it.
This is mainly because the amount of this batch of grain is too large.
In a short while,
First of all, you have to make sure that you are safe and get rid of it all. It is still relatively difficult to actually operate it.
Otherwise, the money saved in my own space would probably be close to less than 100,000.
I have a huge sum of 30,000 yuan on hand, but what is 300 yuan in front of me?
For me, food stamps are a dispensable thing.
When needed, Fatty Gu can get general food stamps in the county at any time.
The food stamps are universal within the province.
You can apply for a business trip from the agricultural machinery factory, and the above will naturally allocate the required food stamps.
Therefore, the most precious things Lu Gang gave to him were not money and food stamps.
It's this 5-foot-7 piece of cloth.
Nowadays, in rural production piles, commune members are getting fewer and fewer cloth coupons every year.
It’s even so little that one person only earns 3 feet 2 of cloth per year.
3 feet 2!
A piece of fabric is only 3 feet 3 in width.
It can only make half a piece of clothing, and even half of the clothing cannot meet the standard.
Therefore, members of rural production teams often need to advance their marriage several years in advance.
So I started to exchange coupons with my neighbors to use them.
Often get married.
Members need to accumulate a quota of cloth tickets for 10 years in order to make decent clothes for the bride and groom...
It is no exaggeration to say that some families with relatively difficult circumstances only have one decent piece of clothing.
Whoever goes out usually wears it.
If it's summer, the ladies at home wear a men's vest.
This is not because they want to be cool, but because men's vests can save a lot of fabric...
If it's winter, you can only lie in bed, and even the work points in the production team can only be watched helplessly.
But can't earn it.
If they cannot earn work points, the family will owe more and more money to the production team every year.
The more you owe, the more you owe.
This creates a vicious cycle.
So Lu Gang suddenly brought him so many cloth tickets. This made Luo Xuan feel a little touched...
I'm not particular about how I dress. I just have two sets of clothes that I can wear interchangeably.
Luo Xuan believed that for a person who had been poor for a long time but suddenly became rich, no matter how expensive the clothes she wore, they could not hide her nouveau riche temperament.
And for a person who has been in a high position for a long time, no matter what he wears, he can't hide the majesty that comes from his bones.
Although I don’t really need the tickets.
But there are too many people around me who need to distribute tickets.
Chen Xiaoduan needs to distribute tickets, and Tuo Haili also needs to distribute tickets.
But they are the same as Du Juan and Bu Xiaoyu: they are working employees or urban residents.
So if they save a little more, they can barely make do with the cloth tickets they get.
But people like Sister Xiaocao and Miss Ye Wan have no source of cloth tickets.
Their future demand for cloth tickets is not a small amount...
Luo Xuan put the bills away.
Then he took out the letterhead and looked at it carefully.
There wasn't much written on this piece of paper. Just a few curse words: Luo Xuan, you stubborn donkey!
See here,
Luo Xuan's heart suddenly surged with a strange thought: Test!
This Lu Gang, didn’t he regard himself as an outsider?
Lu Gang wrote in the letter: Luo Xuan, you stubborn ass! I ask you to come back to the city some time and receive a better education.
Get in touch with more people and things at a higher level.
To enhance your knowledge and expand your horizons; it can also slowly accumulate some valuable connections for you in the future...
It belongs to me!
You are just determined not to come, right?
You say you don't dare to go to the city because of your low self-esteem? I don't think you are such a coward.
You say you like life in the countryside? I see you are building a house and eating good food.
I'm sorry that you are not a person who doesn't know how to enjoy things.
After all, I can only say that you are a stubborn donkey!
I won’t argue with you now about whether you can enter the city or not. Use these food stamps, cloth stamps and money to help those you think are in need!
That’s it, I won’t write anymore. Otherwise, I’ll get angry and suffer from high blood pressure again... Get out!
The signature is Lu Gang.
A signature that is both rough and stiff.
Lu Miao looked at the gloomy and uncertain expression on Luo Xuan's face, and couldn't help but stepped forward worriedly.
He just looked at Luo Xuan infatuatedly and said nothing.
Luo Xuan sighed and handed the letter in his hand to Lu Miao.
"Pfft——"
After reading the contents of the letter, Lu Miao couldn't help laughing: "Brother Luo Xuan, you don't know, my dad actually cares about you.
My dad has lost his temper several times because of letting you go to the city.
When he mentioned you, he gritted his teeth and almost dropped the teacup. He called you a donkey... you are still wild and pure!"
Luo Xuan glared at Lu Miao, "Then you won't stop him from swearing?
For such a big cadre, he still insults me, a small member of the production team, and he doesn't think he's losing his position?"
Lu Miao smiled and said: "Then you have wronged me. Whenever my father curses, I pour salt into his tea cup.
As a result, he took a sip...cluck, then it was my turn to scold me!
How can my father bother to scold you again? Hey, Brother Luo Xuan, do you think I helped you?"
Luo Xuan waved his hand: "Okay, okay, it's getting late. You can get in the car and go back first. As for entering the city, that will happen sooner or later, so there is no rush."
Lu Miao put away the smile on her face.
Youyou sighed: "Brother Luo Xuan, let's take a few steps to the side. I have something to ask you."
Talk about things?
I and Lu Miao stayed together in the mountains for such a long time.
What else is left unsaid?
Why do you have to say it now?
