Rebirth in 1958: Getting rich starts from Nanluoguxiang

The next morning, Dabao and Erbao finished washing up. Cuicui had already cooked the porridge. Dabao drank a little. He took out 20 kilograms of rice, 10 kilograms of flour, a piece of pork, and two cans of milk powder from the house.

He told Cuicui that after he left, if Qin Huairu came over, he should give these things to her. Cuicui agreed.

Dabao opened the bedroom door and saw his mother sleeping soundly with her arms around Niuniu. He tiptoed out with Erbao. Zuo Mingyue was also very tired these days, and she and Nuannuan had not gotten up yet.

Dabao brought Erbao to the police station. Zhao Zhenyu was on duty last night. When he saw Dabao, he hurried over to greet him.

"Captain, are you okay?"

Dabao patted his shoulder and said with a smile,

"I'm fine. Everyone has worked hard these past few days. I'll be back to work the day after tomorrow. We can talk about anything else then."

Zhao Zhenyu agreed, Dabao drove out the jeep, let Erbao get in, and the two brothers set off back to Sijiqing Commune...

During the journey, Erbao was still listless. Dabao touched his little head,

Erbao suddenly raised his head and said, "Brother, I want to join the army."

Dabao replied nonchalantly: "Of course, as long as you can endure the hardship, I will send you to the army when you grow up."

Erbao shook his head and said, "Several recruiters came to our school last month, saying that a large military region was recruiting young soldiers, and the school organized an assessment for us.

My physical fitness and cultural level are both among the best, and when I was sparring with the recruiters, I used the Bajiquan you taught me and defeated them. They all said I was a genius and wanted to recruit me right away."

Dabao frowned: "Does grandma know about this?"

Erbao nodded: "I've talked to grandma."

"What did grandma say?"

"Grandma said she respects my choice."

Dabao sighed. He knew that the Bayi Primary School that Erbao attended was a school for children from the military compound and a cradle for cultivating talents for the army. All the students who attended this school were of good family background. If the army had any plans, they would first come to this school to recruit soldiers.

Dabao nodded and said, "What do you think?"

Erbao said: "I don't know. I can't learn anything in school now. Most of the time, I rely on self-study."

At that time, ordinary families did not spoil their children. Almost every family had three, four, or five children. How could they spoil their children? They could not spoil them all.

So they can only roam freely. When they are hungry, they go home to eat, and then go out for a run. No one will look for them. When it gets late and they are tired, they will naturally come back.

Dabao has the same attitude towards Erbao. He thinks respecting him is the best thing for him. He patiently analyzes the situation for Erbao.

Being a soldier is always a tough job. You have to obey orders and follow commands in the army. The military requirements are very strict.

He asked Erbao: "Can you stick with it like this?"

Erbao thought about it and nodded heavily: "I can definitely hold on, but it's been over a month and the army hasn't given us any notice."

"That means they're still taking your age into consideration. How about this, if you really want to go, I'll ask Grandpa and let him inquire about it. If he's okay with it, I'll ask Mom for her opinion. Do you think this is okay?"

Erbao nodded, a smile on his face. After all, he was a child, and his attention was easily distracted.

It seems like the two brothers haven't chatted like this for a long time. After all, there is a big age gap between them.

The two chatted and laughed as the car drove into Sijiqing Commune. When passing by the police station, Dabao took a look inside.

There seemed to be a quarrel going on in the police station, so Dabao went in.

He parked the car at the door, got out with Erbao, and walked over slowly.

In the police station's large office, a group of people gathered there, arguing fiercely. No one noticed Dabao approaching slowly.

Dabao stood outside the door, quietly listening to the quarrel inside. He immediately knew who was quarreling.

I only heard Ergou saying loudly: "Mr. Li, you drove Yuxiu and her sister out of the police station, and we didn't say anything.

After all, the police station is not run by our family. You are the director and have the right to do this.

But you are withholding our rations, what does that mean?"

I only heard a man say: "Zheng Zhongzhou, please explain clearly, who withheld your food rations? The commune is in trouble now.

The grain station didn't give out that much food, so I asked everyone to overcome it."

Ergou yelled, "Stop it, the remaining food is all from Dabao and the food distributed by the grain station. You didn't give us a single grain. What do you mean by 'we have to overcome this'?"

The man was furious and said, "If there is food, eat it. If there is no food, then starve. I am your director, not your father. Why should I care whether you have enough to eat or not?"

The crowd was excited, and they heard Qin Qinggui say loudly,

"Director Li, are you talking like a human being? What do you mean you are not our father? We are employees of the state. We eat the food allocated to us by the state and earn the salary given to us by the state. What does this have to do with you?"

Director Li snorted and said, "Qin Qinggui, be careful with your words. Even though you have been officially promoted, your promotion period is one year. I can fire you in a minute.

Aren't you just Qin Dabao's uncle? What's so great about that?

Let me tell you, the police station here is run by the Li family, not the Qin family. You better put away your airs of a royal relative, I won't fall for them!"

Ergou's voice became louder: "Li, who are you acting as? Don't think that because the commune secretary is your uncle, you don't know the directions.

I'm telling you, you must take out every grain allocated to us by the grain station, otherwise I will sue you!"

Director Li chuckled and said: "Go ahead, go ahead. Let me tell you, the police stations in the communes are no longer under the jurisdiction of the Public Security Bureau. They are all under the management of the communes.

That is to say, your wages and your food are distributed by the commune. I will tell you now,

The grain station didn't allocate any food to you. If you want to sue me, go ahead! If I try to stop you, I'll be your grandson!"

Qin Qinggui said, "Mr. Li, two of my family members work at the grain station. My family and my second sister-in-law have both told me that the grain allocated to the police station every month is exactly the same. Where did you get all this grain?"

Director Li was silent, hesitated for a moment and said: "Qin Qinggui, you want rations, right? Okay, I will give you some food, but I tell you, I have to adjust your job now. Starting tomorrow, you will go to Mengjiahezi to be a stationed police officer. You must go to work there every day!"

Qin Qinggui immediately refused to do it: "You are talking nonsense! Mengjiahezi is more than 50 miles away from the commune. Do you want me to ride my bike for more than three hours every morning to go there to work?"

Director Li laughed heartily: "You're right, this is an order! You must obey whether you understand it or not!"
