Chapter 2 Problems

The big wooden table is square. Chen Deshan sits at the top seat with Zhao Dehua. Chen Dahe sits on the left, just accompanying Zhao Dehua. Next to him is the clingy little girl. Huang Yuzhi is on the right. The eldest brother, Chen Dajiang, and the second sister, Chen Dahong, sit at the bottom.

The good thing about the Chen family is that women and children can serve it. Unlike many village households, when guests come to the house, they either eat in the kitchen or wait until the guests finish eating before serving it. There are no conditions but a lot of rules.

Chen Deshan filled Zhao Dehua's glass with wine. The two of them touched each other and drank heavily before saying, "Secretary Zhao, you must have just finished fishing in Niulan Lake. There are a lot of people on your side who are not doing anything serious and are rushing to my place in a hurry."

Come, I’m afraid there’s something urgent?”

"Yes," Huang Yuzhi offered a piece of chicken to Zhao Dehua, "If Jia Feng hadn't come to deliver the message this morning, we wouldn't have known about it and wouldn't have been prepared at all."

"What's there to prepare?" Zhao Dehua gnawed on the chicken and waved his hand, "It's not like he's an honored guest, but he's a bad guest."

"Evil guest?" Chen Deshan and Huang Yuzhi looked at each other, then turned to look at Zhao Dehua, "Is there any trouble?"

"Hey, don't worry," Zhao Dehua put down his chopsticks and laughed, "There is trouble, but it's not yours, it's mine. Now I'm in trouble. If I come to your house again, I won't bring you trouble.

Well, that’s not a bad guest."

"Oh, you really don't go to the Three Treasures Hall for anything," Chen Deshan pointed at him with chopsticks, "Tell me, what's the matter, let you, the secretary of the brigade, come to the door through the heavy snow, I just said it first, I can do it

, I don’t have any problem, I can’t do it, let’s just eat and drink today.”

"I'm not looking for you," Zhao Dehua picked up the wine glass and looked at Chen Dahe with a smile, "I'm looking for my eldest nephew."

"Looking for him?" Chen Deshan looked at his son, then at Zhao Dehua, and smiled, "It seems that this is a big trouble, and my son has to take action himself!"

"Well, if you have to go to Dahe for a small trouble, isn't that killing a chicken with a knife?" Zhao Dehua waved the wine glass at Chen Dahe, "Brother, let's have a drink."

Chen Dahe pressed the cup with his right hand and looked at Zhao Dehua cautiously, "No, you'd better talk about it first, I'm afraid my shoulders won't be able to carry it."

Without saying a word, Zhao Dehua put the glass to his mouth and drank it down. He put down the glass and said, "You have big shoulders. When there was a drought last year, there were two teams fighting for water, and they almost didn't start a fight. It was you who wanted to

The solution was to build a waterwheel. At the end of the year, the Shanggan brigade did not have enough food to distribute. You asked someone to exchange it for pork. The number of seeds distributed by the Shanggan in the spring this year was insufficient.

You also went to the Xintian brigade to get labor in exchange for these, and you also helped them complete the wasteland reclamation task. The task of handing in vegetable oil assigned by the commune was completed only after you went to the commune supply and marketing cooperative to get the rapeseed seeds.

One by one, your reputation for killing Chen Dahe has spread all over the country. Tell me, if I am in trouble, who will I go to if I don’t come to you?"

Chen Dahe said with a bitter face, "Uncle, what you said is indeed what I did, but without the support of the brigade, I can't do it alone. Who is this heartless person who puts it on my head? That's not

Are you causing trouble for me? You came here today, but what if everyone from the gate tomorrow and from Zhangzhuang the day after tomorrow come to look for me?"

"It's indeed quite heartless," Chen Deshan nodded in agreement and drank a glass of wine. "That guy, Boss Yang, is really heartless. If he takes the credit for himself, our team might even be able to produce a commune secretary.

, but ended up putting it on a student kid’s head, with no benefit at all and all it caused was trouble.”

"Alas, you are referring to Sang and Huai," Zhao Dehua glanced at him, "With your Party Secretary Yang taking care of you, and with the favor of Xiajian and Xintian Brigade, who would dare to cause trouble for him."

Chen Deshan clinked the wine glass with him and said with a smile, "You're here right now, aren't you?"

"Go away," Zhao Dehua scolded with a smile, "When you were in the militia, you were still a soldier under me. Am I an outsider?"

"Go, go, you are such a shameless person," Chen Deshan blushed and waved his hands away, "It's only happened in three to five days, and I have been talking about it for thirty years. You really don't think you are an outsider."

"Hehe, it's good to be thick-skinned. A thick-skinned person will always be an outsider wherever he goes," Zhao Dehua said with a smile, turning to look at Chen Dahe, "right, nephew, can you help me with my uncle's affairs?"

Chen Dahe smiled bitterly and picked up the wine glass and drank it down, "Yes, I am afraid of being famous and afraid of being strong. I can't escape life or death."

"Hey, that's right," Zhao Dehua slapped the table, "With my eldest nephew taking action, my trouble will be gone!"

"Alas, I said," Chen Deshan pulled him, "You haven't said anything about it yet. Why is there no problem? Don't cheat my son."

"That's not possible," Zhao Dehua waved his hand, "I just want to ask Dahe to give me some advice on a public matter."

"Okay," Chen Deshan put down his wine glass, "then you can talk about it first."

Zhao Dehua turned to look at Chen Dahe, "Eldest nephew, people say you are little Zhuge. Guess what is my trouble?"

"I don't dare to take it seriously, little Zhuge, but I can guess a thing or two about Uncle Zhao's trouble," Chen Dahe smiled casually and leaned forward to look at Zhao Dehua, "This year, there are a lot of fish from Niulan Lake, right?"

"Well," Zhao Dehua nodded.

"There probably won't be much food left in that field after it's handed over."

"Yes," Zhao Dehua continued to nod.

"This year's harvest is not good, and the output of each brigade is average. I heard that the commune is also barely able to complete the task. It must be that there is not much food to distribute. Therefore, what can be given to Niulan Lake is to leave more fish. There are more fish but less food. This

It must be the trouble of the Niulan Lake Brigade!"

"All in." Zhao Dehua extended his thumb, but there wasn't much of a smile on his face. "It's not that there are more fish and less food, but that there is no food at all. 80% of Niulan Lake is water surface, and all of it has been raised to raise fish. The rest

Not even half of the land can be used to grow food. In the past, we kept this food for ourselves, but now

The commune has a heavy task to complete the food supply in the new year. Just such a small amount of food has to be handed over 70%. The remaining food is not enough to eat until the New Year. There is a lot of fish left, but the whole brigade, old and young, cannot live on fish, and the fish is not related to the food.

Likewise, it won't last long, and this time, Niulan Lake will be in big trouble."

Hearing this, Chen Deshan also frowned, "Didn't the commune think of a solution?"

Zhao Dehua shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Every village is short of food, and the commune has to ensure that the food delivered to the national treasury meets the standards. What can be done?"

After a moment of silence, Chen Deshan suddenly raised his head and said, "The commune can't do anything, so you come to find my son. Isn't that a trap?"

"Isn't there nothing I can do," Zhao Dehua said with a bitter look on his face, "The entire brigade has thousands of people pointing at me. The commune promised a batch of relief food, but we have to wait until next year. No matter what, we have to spend this period of time

Just get through it."

Chen Deshan shook his head, the wine had no taste in his mouth.
