Chapter 117 Planting a Seed

Jiang Xiaobai and secretary Huang Zhongfu came to the farthest point while chatting.

"There is not enough time now, so we can only repair key sections. If we want to do major repairs, we can only wait until after the autumn harvest and when there is free time in winter."

Secretary Huang Zhongfu introduced Jiang Xiaobai.

"Okay, it's pretty good. Just repair it like this and you'll be able to drive," Jiang Xiaobai said.

"Well, by the way, when are you going to build the factory?" Huang Zhongfu asked.

"As soon as possible. Once the materials are prepared, the bricks are delivered, and the relevant drawings are completed, we can start the work. It's sooner rather than later."

Jiang Xiaobai said casually.

"Okay, but if it's time for the autumn harvest, you can't smoke too many people." Huang Zhongfu thought for a while and suddenly said.

"If only half of the people in the village are left for the autumn harvest, how many people can I use?" Jiang Xiaobai said nonchalantly.

Now it will take more than a month for all the people in the village to go to the autumn harvest. It is simply a waste and they are all wasted in the fields.

If you work hard but don't put in effort, do less if you can.

"What can I do? Isn't this the case in every village?" Secretary Huang Zhongfu said with a wry smile and shook his head.

Jiang Xiaobai suddenly thought of something, stopped and looked at Secretary Huang Zhongfu and said seriously: "Secretary, have you ever thought about household-based guaranteed production?"

"What do you mean? I don't understand?" Huang Zhongfu wasn't pretending to be confused, but he really didn't understand.

"What I mean is to allocate land to farmers, collect taxes according to the current production, keep enough for the collective, and then the rest will be yours. In this case, everyone does not need you to supervise, and they will be more motivated to work."

Jiang Xiaobai tentatively said that the biggest event in 1978 did not happen in the city, but in the countryside.

For rural areas, this was the time that marked the beginning of reform and opening up, the household contract responsibility system in Xiaogang Village, Anhui Province.

But Jiang Xiaobai feels that since Xiaogang Village can take the lead in implementing this system, Jianhua Village may not be able to follow suit.

"No, no, that means everyone has become a landlord. The land belongs to the collective, how can it be distributed to individuals?"

Huang Zhongfu thought for a while, then refused with eyes flashing. It was obvious that he had seriously considered Jiang Xiaobai's words, but the matter was too big and he did not dare to take the risk.

In fact, he didn't behave well either. People of this generation are really frightened by the movement. They are afraid that they will be dragged out to parade in the streets and criticized at some point.

As for what he said, it was even more of an excuse. If Huang Zhongfu was really the kind of rigid and dogmatic person, he would not have given the green light to Jiang Xiaobai and the educated youth cans and supported them all the way.

It's just that he supports Jiang Xiaobai, and there is no risk for him. Making this decision requires him to bear the risk himself, so he is just afraid.

"Secretary, this matter is indeed too risky and difficult to do, but if this thing is really done, then you will be the only one in the country, not to mention the village secretaries of the surrounding villages, and the entire country, then you

They are all first secretaries."

Jiang Xiaobai said casually that he understood the shortcomings of Secretary Huang Zhongfu, but in fact they could not be regarded as shortcomings.

It's just that Jianhua Village has been poor for a long time. Whenever he went to the commune for a meeting, he was laughed at by the village secretaries of other surrounding villages, and some people called him a beggar secretary.

There is no other way. If Jianhua Village does not eat the reimbursed grain from the country, people may really starve to death every year.

But he also felt very uncomfortable, and he didn’t want to be a begging secretary. He also wanted to be in the limelight in front of others and get rid of the hat of begging secretary on his head.

"Really?" Secretary Huang Zhongfu's eyes lit up instantly. The words "Number One Secretary in the Country" made Huang Zhongfu a little confused by Jiang Xiaobai's deception.

"Of course it's true, and not only is it the first secretary in the country, maybe this matter can be written into textbooks and history. By then, you will not only be famous, but your name will remain in history."

Jiang Xiaobai continued to cheat.

"What about this?" Huang Zhongfu kept rolling his eyes and thinking quickly. This matter is not inoperable.

If you can really do what Jiang Xiaobai said, it doesn't matter if you are destined to die. Some people live for profit, and some live for fame.

However, Huang Zhongfu suddenly shook his head and said: "It still doesn't work. If it doesn't work, then I will be infamy for thousands of years."

The risk was too great, and Huang Zhongfu couldn't make up his mind at all.

"Then let's try another approach," Jiang Xiaobai did not expect to convince Secretary Huang Zhongfu at once, and changed the subject.

"How to change the way?" Huang Zhongfu asked.

"The land will not be distributed to individuals first, but the work points will be calculated according to the family, just like we educated youth did before. For example, this land was originally harvested with five work points.

Now I’ve directly given you five work points. Even if you finish the work in one day, you will still have these five work points. If you finish the work in ten days, you will still have these five work points. Let’s experiment first.”

"If the effect is good this time, then we will discuss household contracting in the winter. If the effect is not good, then we will not mention it."

Jiang Xiaobai said slowly, first plant a seed in Huang Zhongfu's heart, and then wait for it to take root and sprout.

"In this case, firstly, we do not allocate collective land to individuals, and secondly, we can try this method to see how effective it is."

"Well, this is a good idea, but the villagers must be taken care of, especially Goudan. Otherwise, once someone files a complaint, the matter will be aborted."

Huang Zhongfu nodded and said, regarding the matter of Goudan, he was once bitten by a snake and was afraid of well ropes for ten years, so he felt a little bit indifferent.

"Okay, no problem." Jiang Xiaobai smiled and said. He understood what Huang Zhongfu meant. Although most people in Jianhua Village are good, it is not impossible that there are one or two rat droppings.

After choosing the address, Jiang Xiaobai also took some time off. All the preparations had to be done, which always took a certain amount of time.

On the third day, Song Weiguo came to tell Jiang Xiaobai the good news that the brick matter had been settled and he could go and pull bricks.

Li Laosan's construction team is almost ready, but none of them have experience in building large factories. Even with the design drawings, they still need someone to guide them.

"Brother Song, we went to the Municipal Design Institute to complete the decoration drawings, and we still need to find someone from the county's construction company to provide guidance."

Jiang Xiaobai looked at Song Weiguo and said.

"No problem, I'll find someone more reliable." Song Weiguo nodded.
