Rebirth in 1976 begins with educated youth

On the night when Liu Yan and Zhou Haiyang returned to Yuanping, they immediately came to Fan Yanping's home.

"Dad, Mom, these are some samples we brought back from the county supply and marketing cooperative. Look at the craftsmanship, style, and quality..."

Fan Yanping and his wife took turns playing with several samples, and kept muttering: "How can such a handiwork be done well? The handicrafts of some children in Yuanping Village are no worse than this.

Don't you think it's shabby that a dignified county supply and marketing cooperative actually sells things of this quality?How much do they sell for each? "

"Dad, don't worry about the price for now. I would like you to find two people in the Yuanping production team who can work with bamboo. They can be aunts or aunts.

Draw gourds as usual, using the same bamboo parts, and each person makes one of the same style as the sample I brought back for comparison.You can see it? "

"No problem, just let Lili's mother and sister-in-law do this kind of work.

Their mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are very quick with their hands and feet. Just the samples of these three styles can be made in two or three days at most. "

"Great! Then design a style according to the same purpose, use the best parts of bamboo, and make another one of each. How much time will it take."

"Liu Yan, Mom understands what you mean. It only takes two to three days to make three samples of new styles. Each of us can make three."

"Okay! After we make it, let's calculate the cost of each style and compare it with the samples we brought back.

As the saying goes, don't be afraid of not knowing the goods, but be afraid of comparing goods.

In this way, we can not only calculate the other party's cost, but also clearly know our own advantages and the other party's disadvantages. This is called knowing yourself and the enemy. "

"Liu Yan, your trip to the county town was not in vain! And the harvest is not small. I think your father can't close his mouth these past two days.

After asking, I found out that you had implemented the Yuanping Highway matter.You are now confident about the bamboo factory. "Mother Fan said with excitement written all over her face.

"Taking advantage of this major event of road construction, I reported the bamboo factory to Secretary Guo of the commune, and he expressed strong support! Liu Yan, just go ahead and do it!" Fan Yan couldn't close his mouth.

"Okay! After the samples are made, let Haiyang take the eldest brother, the second brother, and the third brother to the county supply and marketing cooperative. The main purpose is to let the three brothers connect with the county supply and marketing cooperative and become familiar with each other.

If the other party approves our stuff, we will immediately start building the factory.

Dad, I'm considering temporarily letting Haiyang be responsible for preparing to build the factory during this period, and let his three sisters-in-law help him at the same time.After the factory is built, the village committee will select suitable candidates. "

"Okay, let's do this first!"

Zhou Haiyang continued: "The county supply and marketing cooperative probably won't have a big problem, Wang Qiang is keeping an eye on it.

Whether a bamboo factory can run well depends most on the craftsmanship, quality, style, function and price of our products.Therefore, the first batch of samples is very important.

From the perspective of consumers, the first thing people consider must be practicality, that is, function, not decoration.

Then there is quality, and quality has a lot to do with the materials used. Products made from different parts of bamboo will definitely have different qualities.

The third is the price. The consumer groups in the city are mainly housewives. These people are budget-conscious and cannot afford it if it is too expensive.

The fourth is craftsmanship, whether the workmanship is fine, whether it feels good, and whether it looks good in the hand.

The fifth is the style, whether the style is novel and whether it is different from popular products. "

Fan Yanping pondered for a moment and then nodded: "Yes! We must work hard in these five aspects and let the county supply and marketing cooperative take a look at the craftsmanship of our Yuanping Village."

"Dad, as soon as the battle with the County Supply and Marketing Cooperative starts, Haiyang and I will go back to Ningcheng in a while, and then Lili will go back with me to meet my parents."

"How are your parents? Are you officially working?" Fan Yanping asked.

Liu Yan nodded: "Everything is fine! Although the policy has not been implemented yet, some teaching work has been arranged..."

"I hope this day can end soon..."

“When we return to Ningcheng, we will go to the Provincial Supply and Marketing Cooperative and the Ningcheng City Supply and Marketing Cooperative.

If the supply and marketing cooperative in the provincial capital can accept our things, it will be enough to keep everyone in Yuanping Village busy. "

"What are you afraid of if you are busy? It allows the members to make more money, and no matter how hard or tiring it is, everyone is willing to do it."

"That's right! In two days, Haiyang and I will go to Madshan Mountain and ask Third Brother to accompany us. We will go to the Baizhang Terraced Fields to cut two bamboos and come back and make some samples with health care functions..."

"Remember! The bamboo in the Baizhang terraces is not cut, but dug."

"Use digging?"

"Yes, you must dig the bamboo head together. The bamboo is full of treasures, and every part can be fully utilized. So you should bring a hoe instead of a machete."

"Dad, isn't all bamboo cut? Why do bamboos in Baizhang terraces have to be dug?"

“This is another magical place of Baizhang Terraced Bamboo.

As long as there is a gap around it, its roots will immediately deliver nutrients to the missing location, and a new bamboo will soon grow.

It is this self-regeneration function that ensures that the bamboo in the Baizhang Terraces will continue to regenerate and never dry up.

If you chop with a knife, you will destroy one tree and you will lose one tree. "

"It's amazing! Maybe this is a form of self-protection that not only allows people to make full use of resources while enriching mankind, but also prevents human beings from wanton destruction!"

"In fact, many organisms in nature have the function of regeneration and reconstruction. The key is whether humans exploit and utilize them rationally, otherwise they will destroy natural resources."

"Protect natural resources and rationally exploit and utilize them..." Liu Yan thought for a moment and then said to himself: "A nature reserve should be established..."

[Author's digression]: The long serial novel "Rebirth in 1976 Begins as an Educated Youth" begins in the 70s and ends in the 21st century, with the main story line spanning more than 40 years.

This work is different from many works that describe the official promotion of students from poor families. It mainly describes the children of cadres in Jiangning Province, represented by Liu Yan, who experienced the 70s, 80s, and [-]s. After graduating from college in the early [-]s, they voluntarily gave up their careers in ministries, commissions, provincial and municipal agencies. Opportunities require the step-by-step growth process after entering rural grassroots work...

The experiences of that year enabled them to learn to calmly, comprehensively and deeply understand the national conditions and people's conditions, especially the actual situation in rural areas.

They have seen and experienced with their own eyes how huge the difference between urban and rural areas is, how unbalanced development is between regions, how poor the vast rural areas are, and the contrast in people's ideological concepts and culture.

They have done their best in the movement of going to the mountains and countryside, in the social projects to change the poverty and backwardness of rural areas, and in the construction of material and spiritual civilization in rural areas, and have achieved indelible achievements.

At the same time, they are also clearly aware of the reality that to completely change the face of rural poverty, it is not only a matter of material poverty alleviation, but also a spiritual poverty alleviation, and there is a long way to go.

Going to the mountains and countryside has made them consciously or unconsciously develop a belief in life that is unwilling to lag behind, be unwilling to sink, and work hard to make progress.

It cultivates the political character of understanding the national conditions and people's sentiments, caring about the destiny of the nation, and hoping for the steady development of the country.

Therefore, when they enter the officialdom, no matter where they are, they will use a deeper look to understand the national conditions, sympathize with the people's sentiments, observe and participate in the changes and development of the country in every major reform...
