Early in the morning, the sun had yet to rise.
The thin mist was like a pale white ribbon, curling around the Jialin township government compound. It hung on the high treetops outside the wall and floated. Some of it landed on the low melon bean racks in the large vegetable garden not far away and floated back and forth.
It was very quiet in the courtyard. A few rows of office buildings with green bricks and tiles were lying quietly. Only the tinkling sound of a small yellow three-story dormitory building in the northeast corner could be heard. Someone was washing by the open-air sink. The faucet was wide open, and the splashing sound was mixed with the crisp sound of the basin and the bucket hitting the cement table. It was especially pleasant to the ear.
Pan Baoshan, who was in the dormitory directly north of the pool, was woken up. He poked his head out from under the blanket and shouted without opening his eyes,"Who the f * ck is it? Be gentle, be gentle!”
Pan Baoshan knew that the person outside was Old Wang. They were all from the Agricultural Economics Station and were very familiar with each other. It was fine to shout a few words.
"Why aren't you getting up at this time?" Old Wang turned around and laughed at the dormitory door." Little lazy child, you only know how to sleep. I guess that thing in your crotch is too lazy to mold. Hurry up and get ready. Later, when the sun just comes out and it's fresh, lie on your back and bask in the sun!”
"Aiyo, you're really an old naughty child. Cursing me like this, your fellow is the one who's going to get moldy.”Pan Baoshan sighed." Forget it, I won't argue with you. Just bring me two buns when we go to the canteen later."”
"Did you drink too much last night and forget everything? Or did you spend the whole night thinking about how to climb into the female room on the second floor and tire your brain out?”As he spoke, Old Wang had already walked over with a basin and pushed open the door." Baoshan, today is the technical guidance day. Didn't you say yesterday that you would wake up early to go to the village? Have you changed your mind?”
Pan Baoshan suddenly sat up and slapped his head." F * ck, how could I forget about this!”
Five minutes later, Pan Baoshan left the dormitory and called his good friend, the secretary of the government office next door, Wang Tao, to go to the cafeteria together.
As soon as Wang Tao left the dormitory, he turned his head to glance at the second floor. Until he turned the corner, he still turned his head back three times with every step he took, looking around from time to time.
"What the f * ck are you still looking at? Those colorful pants, pants, head, chest, and bra covers have long been taken back.”Pan Baoshan sneered." If you want to see it, you'll have to learn from Old Wang in the future. Wake up early."”
Pan Baoshan's words had some background.
In recent years, many young people had entered Jialin Village. Most of them were single, and many of them had been transferred over for a long distance. Ten to twenty people usually did not go back. The old dormitories could not accommodate them. The village gritted their teeth and built a three-story dormitory building with ten rooms. The men lived on the first floor, the women lived on the second floor, and the men and women did not distinguish on the third floor. Leaders above the deputy department level each had a room.
Although those who lived on the first floor wanted to move to the third floor as soon as possible, they only had eyes for the second floor and were always staring at it. Especially in summer, when one looked up at things, the scenery in their field of vision would be even more charming. For a very long time, as long as someone on the second floor wore a dress, someone on the first floor would immediately start betting on the color of their underwear.
However, there was one time when everyone lost. Everyone looked up and saw clearly that the woman who had bet was not wearing anything under her skirt. Therefore, everyone gathered the money they had bet and had a drink. Unexpectedly, someone drank too much and was very excited. He told the others about the matter and caused quite a stir. In the end, the unlucky woman applied to be transferred to another town.
The township leader covered his mouth and laughed behind his back. However, he criticized the matter fiercely on the surface. In the end, he decided to replace the sparse steel bars on the second floor with a concrete wall that was one and a half meters high.
Even so, the people living on the first floor could still have fun. The colorful underwear and covers hanging outside became objects of observation. They would guess their owners based on their visual measurements and the age group that the color was suitable for.
There was no way to bet on this, because it was difficult to verify the correct answer. Although most of the women on the second floor accepted their own things, there were occasionally some who did good deeds or were asked to help. They were all accepted, so it was not easy to determine who the owner was. However, everyone still enjoyed it. No matter what, it was a very interesting topic to talk about.
Later on, the people on the second floor found out about this. For some reason, they began to secretly hang their underwear and covers. They washed them at night and collected them early in the morning. It was as if whoever hung them outside in broad daylight was Pan Jinlian and the like.
Therefore, Pan Baoshan teased Wang Tao. If he wanted to enjoy his eyes, he had to wake up early like Old Wang.
"Haha." When Wang Tao heard this, he winked and smiled." I really couldn't tell. Do you think Old Wang wakes up so early every day just to feast his eyes and satisfy himself?”
"That's hard to say. I just came here in the second half of last year, so I don't know much about people and things. Take the women on the second floor for example. I think some of them seem to like to tear down walls and reveal green to attract bees and butterflies.”Pan Baoshan raised his eyebrows." Director Zheng from the government office is just like that guy.”
"Even a fool can tell. However, it still depends on who the right person is. People like you and me might not be her type.”
The two of them chatted and laughed. As they turned the corner, they happened to bump into Director Zheng, Zheng Xiaoping, whom they had mentioned.
"Chief Physician Zheng!" Wang Tao stopped and greeted him warmly." Have you eaten?”
"It's already so late, why aren't you eating?" Zheng Jinping was in a hurry. She had always been like this, as if the village could not function without her as the director of the government office." Oh right, Little Wang, didn't you arrange for you to go to the county with Deputy Village Head Zhao for a meeting today? Get ready early and leave at 7:50 sharp."”
After saying that, Zheng Xiaoping swayed her waist and left. Pan Baoshan winked at Wang Tao." You're indeed a good person. Look at how hard you're shaking. You're like a willow branch by the river that doesn't stop!"”
"You can't joke about this. If others hear this and spread it, not only will Zheng Jinping not forgive you, but Village Chief Liang will also not be nice to you.”
"Of course. Whoever it is, I will protect." Pan Baoshan urged," Hurry up and go eat. After that, I still have to go to Xie Gou Village to guide the production.”
"Hey, Pan Baoshan, are you for real or not? You're seriously making a technical guide for Rixia Village.”Wang Tao patted Pan Baoshan's shoulder." I do know that there are quite a number of pretty girls and beautiful wives in the village. You can go and teach them how to do it very technically.”
"Wang Tao, since you're a little older than me, I'll just call you a f * cking dog. What do you think you're thinking about all day?”Pan Baoshan shook his head and said jokingly," Our Agricultural Economics Station works for the common people. Let me tell you, age is not the standard to judge ability. Science and technology will always be the number one productive force. At least we didn't waste all four years of university, so we still have something in our heads.”
"I don't know if there's anything in your head, but just based on your glib tongue, it's enough to make people admire you.”Wang Tao chuckled, his words revealing a hint of envy.
Pan Baoshan shook his head and smiled playfully. He graduated from the Agricultural University last year. After the qualification examination of the Provincial Party Committee Organization Department, written examination, interview, physical examination, inspection and other layers of selection, he was lucky enough to become a transfer student.
It was not an exaggeration to say that he was lucky. The personnel relations of the selected transfer students were all in the Organization Department. It was equivalent to a reserve cadre who was placed at the grassroots level to train. It was definitely a good job. Generally, only the children of either officials or rich people had the opportunity. It was not easy for a poor kid like him to cross that hurdle.
In the following provincial pre-job training class, the relevant persons-in-charge of the Provincial Party Committee Organization Department, the Human Resources Department, the Education Department, and the editorial office all attended the opening ceremony. The head of the Provincial Party Committee Organization Department also spoke, saying that everyone had embarked on the path of selecting and transferring students, which meant that they had entered the ranks of the cadre team. This was an honor and a mission. In the future, when they went to the grassroots, they had to be down-to-earth, give full play to their intelligence, and make due contributions to the great cause of the party and the country.
At that time, Pan Baoshan was full of passion and had a sense of nobility. Then, he and a few other transfer students were sent to Songyang City, which had an underdeveloped economy.
The city attached great importance to the provincial selection and transfer of students. The attitude of the Organization Department of the Municipal Party Committee was very clear. They regarded the selection and transfer of students as a basic project to strengthen the leadership team and the construction of the cadre team. It was included in the city's cadre team training plan. It was required that when promoting township leaders, priority should be given to the selection and transfer of students with mature conditions. It was even pointed out that for those who could not be arranged for the leadership team at the moment, they could adopt the method of "first in, last out".
It was against this background that Pan Baoshan came to Jialin Village in Fuxiang County to work and train at the agricultural economic station.
When he first came, Pan Baoshan was still as passionate as ever. He was indeed full of enthusiasm when it came to work and was determined to work hard to make a difference. However, in less than two months, he gave up. There was no other way. Reality was too helpless. The village environment did not have any room for him to make a difference. The secretary and the township head were assigned to establish a state. They spent most of their time on personnel struggles and did not care about work at all. Therefore, Pan Baoshan gradually slacked off. He might as well just mingle around and not join any faction. He was happy to be free and unfettered. However, he was very attentive to the farmers and the common people. He would go to the fields every technical guidance day to seriously explain.
Today was the technical guidance day again. According to the plan for going to the village at the beginning of the year, it was his turn to go to Xie Gou Village.
After breakfast, Pan Baoshan didn't dawdle. He carried his bag and walked to the farmland of Xiegou Village. Xiegou Village was only three miles away from the local government.
The weeping willows by the river bank and canals had already turned green, and the winter wheat in the fields had also begun to turn green.
"Yo, Director Pan, you're here so early!”An old farmer saw Pan Baoshan and went up to him with a smile." I knew today was your day of guidance, so I came down early to wait for you.”
"Uncle, it's better to be early. It's better to give up an ingot of gold than to give up a year of spring. At this time of the year, you have to be diligent, dig the ditches deep, apply base fertilizer, and not let the wheat dry. You have to give enough nutrients, or else how can you have a bumper harvest!”
"That's right. Look at the village. They've repaired the ditches according to the requirements of your agricultural economic station and are preparing to irrigate the turning green water.”
"You can't just randomly pour the Cyan Returning Water." Pan Baoshan said seriously," The temperature is not stable yet. In addition, the wheat shoots quickly during the turning green period, so its ability to resist the cold is not strong. If the water is not poured properly, it will easily cause the ground temperature to drop and cause freezing damage.”
"Even if the wheat is dry, we have to water it.”
"It's not that we don't want to water it. At this stage, we have to water it less. Of course, there was another way to water the wheat. It was to use spraying to temporarily suppress the growth of the wheat and try to delay the shoot time as much as possible. However, that would increase the cost of farming.”
"That's right." The old farmer nodded." But no matter what, there will always be some wheat that will freeze every year.”
"It doesn't mean that the seedlings will definitely die and the yield will decrease.”Pan Baoshan squatted down and looked at the wheat seedlings." The wheat has the ability to compensate for the tillering. When the wheat is frozen in spring, its small tillering nodes usually won't freeze to death. Therefore, if we apply high-efficiency nitrogen fertilizer at an appropriate time and ensure the soil moisture, we can promote the rapid growth of the small tillering nodes. It can almost catch up with the ear formation rate of normal wheat at the same time, and the harvest won't be affected.”
The old farmer nodded repeatedly at his words. Then, the villagers who had gathered around also asked questions. Pan Baoshan was very patient. He patiently explained everything from freezing to lodging to pest control.
Pan Baoshan had relied on this seriousness to gain the recognition of the people. In fact, the villagers did not take him seriously at first. What could a college student who had never planted crops teach? However, after two or three months, they were convinced. Pan Baoshan was indeed a good speaker. Many of the things he said were useful and more reliable than purely relying on experience.
"Director Pan, you've been to Cui Village many times. Every time, you've brought a lot of benefits to the villagers. As the secretary, I've seen it all. No matter what, I have to let you drink two cups today!”Lu Chengsheng, secretary of the party branch of Xiegou Village, warmly asked Pan Baoshan to come to the village for lunch.
"Secretary Lu, that won't do. It's fine to stay in the village for a meal. Just treat it as a personal friend.”Pan Baoshan waved his hand." But there are rules in the village. I can't take advantage of my work to eat. If someone with bad intentions finds out and reports me, I'll have to bear the consequences.”
"Isn't it just a home-cooked meal? Who would be so bored as to slander someone behind their back?”Lu Chengsheng grabbed Pan Baoshan." Coach Pan, if you don't agree, you're looking down on me.”
As the saying goes, mules and horses are valuable when they are arrogant, but people are worthless when they are arrogant. Seeing that Lu Chengsheng was sincere, Pan Baoshan did not reject him anymore." Alright, Secretary Lu. Since you're so enthusiastic, I'll stay for a home-cooked meal."”
It was called a home-cooked meal, but it was actually very sumptuous. Moreover, most of the food was authentic wild game. The villagers had set up their own nets or caught them in cages. When they heard that Pan Baoshan was staying at the secretary's house for dinner, they sent all of them over.
"Did you see that, Director Pan? The people have a scale in their hearts. Even if the village and county leaders came, they might not receive the same treatment as you!”Lu Chengsheng stretched his neck." Why? It's all because you've really done something for the common people. People put themselves in their shoes.”
Lu Chengsheng was more straightforward. His words made Pan Baoshan feel very touched. For a moment, he also opened his heart and chatted with him.
With this speculation, there was more wine. Pan Baoshan passed out from the alcohol and slept at Lu Chengsheng's house until four in the afternoon.
Back at the township government compound, Pan Baoshan felt that the atmosphere was not right. Everyone's expressions were strange, but they tried their best to hide their bad excitement. Pan Baoshan was too embarrassed to ask. He looked up and saw Old Wang in front of him. He rushed over to ask. Old Wang looked around and lowered his voice."I heard that something happened to Wang Tao and he's staying at the county police station.”
"Are you kidding me? He went to the county for business. How could he commit a crime?”Pan Baoshan couldn't believe it.
"The news came from the government office. It can't be wrong.”Old Wang's expression was very serious." This kind of joke is usually not made randomly. It must be true.”
Pan Baoshan was very upset. As a friend, he really didn't want anything to happen to him. He stood there blankly for a moment.
While he was in doubt, Zheng Jinping passed by with a folder in her arms. Her footsteps were light and she was beaming with joy.
" Director Zheng, I heard that Wang Tao..." Pan Baoshan went forward and asked tentatively.
"Oh, Wang Tao. He ran into some trouble and is currently at the police station.”Zheng Jinping was in such a good mood that she was actually beaming with joy.
Pan Baoshan frowned and cursed in his heart," What are you so happy about? Do you have demonic feelings?
