Chapter 271 Down to Earth
Godmother Hongying estimated that Ruan Yu and the others should be back today, so starting from the afternoon, she would walk out of the alley from time to time and look towards the village entrance. It was not until she finally saw the two familiar jeeps that she felt relieved.
"You are finally back. How are you? Are you okay?"
Aunt Hongying hurried to the door of Ruan Yu's house and watched Xie Beichen park the car and help Ruan Yu get out of the car. Seeing this, although she already had some idea in her mind, some answers still needed to be confirmed before she could be completely relieved.
"It's okay."
Ouyang Mingnuo followed and greeted Aunt Hongying with a smile: "The doctor said everything is fine, but I still want to follow the previous arrangement and stay in the hospital in advance."
"Well, this way everyone can feel more at ease."
Aunt Hongying nodded repeatedly, and while helping Ouyang Mingnuo move things into the yard, she did not forget to tell him the reason for her visit: "By the way, don't cook dinner until you have packed up. I've cooked it over there, and you can go over and eat later.
You have been busy and tired for the past few days. It is a good time to come back and have a good rest after eating."
"Then I won't be polite with you." Ouyang Mingnuo smiled and took out a net bag from the carriage and handed it to Aunt Hongying: "We bought roast goose and braised pig's trotters in the city. You can take them back and process them to make two side dishes."
Everyone was already so familiar with each other, so neither Ouyang Mingnuo nor Aunt Hongying was polite anymore.
Aunt Hongying took the net bag with a smile, chatted with Ouyang Mingnuo for a few more words, then turned around and hurried back to prepare dinner.
While having dinner in the evening, we naturally talked about celebrating the old branch secretary's birthday.
Although the old branch secretary was grateful for everyone's concern for him, it was obvious that he was not very interested in this matter.
Although the old branch secretary did not say it explicitly, but thinking about what Liu Ye had said to her before, Ruan Yu could guess what the old branch secretary was worried about.
"Are you still worried about the public grain issue?"
Ruan Yu thought about it and finally asked the old branch secretary, who had a gloomy face, with some concern.
"Yes."
The old branch secretary nodded. This was not something that needed to be concealed. He put down his wine glass and simply told Ruan Yu and the others about his current difficulties.
"According to President Wu and I, we thought it would be better to try the household contract responsibility system, which has been implemented by others.
In fact, we have discovered over the years that although everyone goes to work and leaves work on time, in reality, to put it bluntly, many people are just wasting their time.
The annual grain harvest has remained the same over the years, with no significant improvement; it is usually enough to maintain food and clothing, but in years like this year, there is a high probability that the task of handing over the public grain will not be completed.
Since we have such a model now, we might as well give it a try. If it can be successfully implemented, it will be a good thing for our Kaoshantun and even the entire Hongqi Commune, right?
But the captains of several other brigades disagreed.
They all felt that this approach was a bit risky. If things didn't improve as they are now, they would be blamed by their superiors."
Having said that, the old branch secretary, who had refilled his bag of dry tobacco, was about to light it, but then he remembered something, knocked the pipe in his hand, and put it back.
"Moreover, according to the documents from above, the amount of grain we have to hand in will increase next year.
It’s really not a solution to continue like this!”
When the old branch secretary said this, his face became even uglier.
He sighed, and seeing that everyone was listening to him carefully, he did not beat around the bush and continued, "According to the news we just received, and based on the amount of grain we received in previous years when the harvest was good, after paying the public grain tax, the amount of grain left for each of us will probably be even less."
In fact, everyone can see this development.
But when it really came time to make a decision, no one had the courage to step forward.
After all, this is not a problem that can be solved by just talking about it, and decision makers need to take responsibility.
“I also know why the big guys are reluctant to nod.
That is because even if someone else is implementing this now, it has only just been tried out, and no one can guarantee whether the result will be good or bad.
No one has done this before, right?!
Moreover, everyone is afraid that if they move too fast now, they will be the first to stand out. If the superiors blame them, who will take the responsibility?
That means both sides are not human beings! "
The old branch secretary drank another glass of wine in a somewhat irritable manner, and then he looked at Ruan Yu and the others helplessly and continued: "You said, if next year is a good year, it will be fine, but if it is still like this year, and we encounter troubles from God again, then won't we have to delay paying the public grain for another year?
If we keep dragging this on year after year, we will really become a backward group!"
Nowadays, if you keep falling behind, you will be criticized.
"In fact, why can't we try to implement it from a brigade?" Ruan Yu looked at the old branch secretary's embarrassment and hesitated for a moment before she tentatively suggested, "It is indeed risky to implement it in a commune.
But just like the brigade reported in the newspaper, ours is just a brigade that is learning from them and implementing the household contract responsibility system. So won’t the obstacles be a little smaller?
You see, if we can get the consent of everyone in the team and implement it for a year, no matter whether it is a failure or a success, we can summarize our own experience.
In this way, if it succeeds, everyone will see the benefits, and even if you and President Wu don’t do the work next, everyone will come and learn from your experience and choose to follow.
But if it failed, it would only affect the harvest of one brigade for one year, and at least it would not affect the grain harvest of the entire commune.
Wouldn’t it be easier to operate this way?”
On the road to reform, the first crab is always the hardest to bite!
Before, everyone had been accustomed to eating from the same big pot, and now it is suddenly proposed to re-assign production to each household and be responsible for their own profits and losses. It is normal that there will be certain obstacles.
And from what the old branch secretary said, President Wu actually wanted the entire commune to make changes together, which would naturally create even greater obstacles!
After all, not every leader has the courage and determination of the old branch secretary and President Wu.
"In this way, if we want to implement it, we only need to convince all members of our Kaoshantun Brigade to agree."
After hearing Ruan Yu's words, the old branch secretary was stunned at first, but he quickly reacted, slapped his thigh and immediately made a decision: "I will go and discuss it with President Wu tomorrow!
You can't eat a fat man in one bite! Ah Yu, you really woke me up. Our previous thoughts were too taken for granted!
When it comes to doing things, we still have to be down-to-earth and do as much as we can. That’s the right thing to do!”
