Chapter 172: Female Supporting Character in the Period Literature (7)

The long-awaited ideological conference finally arrived. The meeting was held in a simple room next to the brigade warehouse.

This was originally the old house of a former landlord. After the landlord was overthrown, the house was demolished, and the team rebuilt a few thatched houses and enclosed a yard.

Three of them are used to store grain, one is used to store various farm tools, and a small room is used as a meeting room.

Not only did the captain come, but Ruan Tang also came along.

Among a group of dark and thin young people, Ruan Tang was really dazzling. When she stood in the room, people felt that she was glowing.

There was no table in the meeting room, just a few small bamboo stools.

The team leader sat on the top holding an enamel pot and gave a speech, while Lu Changqing and the others sat sparsely below and listened. After he finished speaking, it was Lu Changqing and the others' turn to report their thoughts.

After everyone had finished reporting their work, the team leader announced the end of the meeting and stood up to leave.

Seeing this, Lu Changqing quickly raised his hand and shouted, "Captain, I still have work to report."

The captain looked at Lu Changqing, "It's Su Zqing, is there anything else?"

Lu Changqing stood up, cleared his throat, and began to recite in a sonorous and powerful voice: "Since I went to the countryside, I have completely integrated my body and mind into this vast land. I always pay attention to every subtle development and change of our brigade, and feel every joy and sorrow here with my heart.

Under your outstanding leadership, the villagers responded to the call of the national policy with great enthusiasm and firm belief. They worked hard on this fertile land with their hard-working hands; they shed their sweat and added bricks and tiles to the cause of communism. "

Silence, deathly silence, and an atmosphere of awkwardness filled the space.

It was such stiff flattery and such pretentious words that even Lu Changqing felt embarrassed listening to it.

He usually insults others one after another, but when it comes to praising someone, he just wants to tie a rope around his neck.

The captain coughed uncomfortably and said, "Su Zhiqing, just say whatever you want to say."

"Then I'll just be frank." Lu Changqing took out her business plan from her trouser pocket, unfolded it, and her expression suddenly became very serious.

“Although under your leadership, our village has been able to complete the grain task assigned by the higher authorities every year, there are still a large number of villagers in our village who do not have enough food to eat.

Of course, this is not your problem, Captain, but a common situation in the country now.

The great famine of the past few years must be as young as four or five years old, so you must remember it vividly. Three years of natural disasters left the land barren and starving people everywhere.

Farmers rely on the weather for their livelihood, but what should they do if the weather doesn’t go as they wish?

Then we have to think of other ways to generate income. We can’t just farm. If we only farm, we will die. Otherwise, if there is a natural disaster, the grain production will not be enough to meet the public grain demand, and we will have to starve again.”

There was nothing wrong with Lu Changqing's brain. He just said it was a natural factor and didn't dare to say anything else.

The captain's face didn't look good. What did he mean by "there are many villagers in their village who don't have enough food to eat"?

He believed that under his management, Changlin Township had become the best-developed brigade in the surrounding area. As long as people actively participated in labor and were willing to work in the fields, they would never go hungry.

The captain's tone was somewhat unfriendly after Lu Changqing denied his achievement. "Does Su Zheqing mean that he has found a way to help the village generate income?"

Lu Changqing didn't expect that the captain who seemed to be clear about the distinction between public and private affairs and had positive thoughts in the plot was actually so petty and couldn't stand to hear even a few words of truth. If she had known that it would make him unhappy, she would simply not help him make amends, since she had already offended him anyway.

“I went to the county supply and marketing cooperative to buy eggs before, but they were sold out in the morning. Later I found out that eggs, like meat, were in short supply.

These days I have observed the topography of our village. It is surrounded by mountains and rivers, and has a pleasant climate, which is very suitable for opening a chicken farm. When the time comes, we can reach a cooperation with the supply and marketing cooperative in the county and provide them with a stable supply of eggs. This will not only actively respond to the policy call of "one grasp and three promotions", but also bring rich economic benefits to the entire village, killing two birds with one stone."

The team leader was not optimistic about Lu Changqing's plan. "It's easy to say. There is arable land everywhere. Do we have to use the land for growing crops to raise these chickens? This is such a waste of space!"

Lu Changqing suggested: "We can use the open space on the other side of the canal. Isn't there a bamboo forest over there? Although the canal is a little far from the village, the key is that it doesn't take up space. When the time comes, we can fence off the bamboo forest and the open space, and just raise chickens, without wasting any land."

The vacant land was not too big, and there was a lot of sand and gravel. In the past, only some trees were planted there, and it was impossible to grow crops or anything else.

Lu Changqing handed the plan in his hand to the captain, "Captain, take a look."

Seeing that Lu Changqing came prepared, the captain took the page and read it carefully.

After reading it, the captain had to admit that the chicken farm plan did look promising, but the question was how to feed the chickens? They couldn't use their own rations, could they?

Lu Changqing smiled proudly, "I have also thought of a solution to the problem that the team leader is worried about. When I was working before, I noticed that there are many snails in the fields here.

At that time, we can mobilize the children in the village to pick up snails in the mountains or catch duckweed in the fields, and let them participate in the labor by weighing them and calculating work points.

This will not only allow the children to help reduce the burden on the family, but also solve the problem of chicken feed in the chicken factory, killing two birds with one stone."

"What about winter? No snails or duckweed? What will the chickens eat?"

"Earthworms, I can teach you how to raise earthworms. Besides, isn't sweet potato the most produced in our village every year? When the chicken farm is built, we can apply to the higher authorities to see if we can get a reduction or collect some sweet potatoes, and then cook them with wheat bran, rice bran, etc. and feed them to the chickens."

The captain was very tempted by what Lu Changqing said, but opening a chicken farm was a big deal and required reporting to the higher authorities and waiting for approval.

The captain folded Lu Changqing's plan and put it in his trouser pocket, then said to Lu Changqing: "Su Zqing, your idea is very good, but building a chicken farm is not a trivial matter after all. I have to go back and think about it carefully."

Lu Changqing said hurriedly, "Of course, of course. It's almost June now. It usually takes at least five months for a hen to lay eggs, so you'd better apply for this as soon as possible, so that the village can prepare early."

The captain was puzzled, "Ready?"

Lu Changqing nodded. "Repairing the fence, and the most important issue of chicks, and the selection of breeding personnel. We need to make plans for these early, and we can't wait until approval comes before dealing with these issues."

With Lu Shaofeng around, the team leader is still full of confidence about the approval of the chicken farm.

Seeing that Lu Changqing was confident, the captain smacked his lips and asked, "Since Su Zqing has said so, do you have any good suggestions?"
