"Accountant Zhang, isn't there anything special about our team that's worth developing?"

For example, in Shuiwazi Brigade, people have a reservoir where they can raise fish. In Hongxing Brigade, they have mulberry trees where they can raise silkworms. And in Liujiabazi, people grow rapeseed, and sending the rapeseed to the commune oil mill also generates income...

There are too many examples of this. Many brigades have even set up factories. Huaiyin Brigade is not much different. Why can't they think of a way? Not to mention the factory, can't they just grow some economic crops?

In her previous life, she worked in the Huaiyin Brigade. She had no money and no chance to go back to the city to visit her relatives. She only heard about it from others after she returned to the city.

Not every brigade is in the same situation as Huaiyin Brigade. Some brigades have found ways to set up factories and grow various economic crops, relying on the mountains and water for their livelihood. Their water is not as good as that of Shuwaizi Brigade, but the mountains here are not bad at all.

You can also learn from others how to plant fruit trees or something, there will always be a way out.

Tan Yuan was puzzled. Clearly, the leaders of Huaiyin Brigade were all excellent and genuinely cared about the members. Even Secretary Zhou, who was known for his indifference, hadn't he been running around this time? What was so wrong with Huaiyin Brigade?

"You are a girl from the city, you have never experienced hardship, so you think things are too simple."

Nowadays, everything is subject to unified purchase, sale and distribution, and even seeds are no exception.

You either have to rely on the Agricultural Bureau for distribution, or you have to figure it out on your own.

When seeds of economic crops such as cotton and rapeseed arrived at the commune, the commune would only give priority to the brigades that had also planted these crops in previous years, and would not even think of them.

Besides, most of the fields in Huaiyin Brigade are reclaimed from the mountains, and the grain output is far less than that of other brigades. Why should the commune leave these precious seeds to their brigade?

Accountant Zhang didn't need to tell Tan Yuan about these things. He just sighed helplessly at Tan Yuan.

"The captain is very optimistic about you. If you really want to know, go ask him yourself."

Zhao Xiaoliu has received the injection and needs to stay in the hospital for observation overnight before he can go back tomorrow.

It was already completely dark, and it didn't matter that the lights were on in the hospital, but it was actually pitch black outside. There was no moon today, and you couldn't see your hand in front of you. There was no way to drive the ox cart back, so you could only spend the night in the hospital.

Guan Jianguo went out for a while and came back with three mixed flour buns in his hand.

"Eat, you won't be able to sleep at night if you don't eat something."

After saying that, he put it directly on the small table beside the bed and went downstairs with his arm folded.

He was worried about leaving the ox cart parked under the hospital so late at night, so he planned to spend the night on it.

Tan Yuan picked up the steamed buns and gave one to Accountant Zhang, and they both ate them in small bites.

At night, she borrowed a quilt from the nurse, carried the quilt downstairs, and after looking around, she saw Guan Jianguo huddled on the back of the ox cart with his arms folded in the dark.

Guan Jianguo should be about 1.8 meters tall. At this moment, he was curled up into a ball, looking pitiful.

Tan Yuan walked lightly and staggered towards him, trying not to wake him up.

Only after she covered him with the quilt and saw no sign of him waking up did Tan Yuan turn around and go back to the ward.

She didn't notice that the man curled up on the ox cart slowly opened his eyes and looked in the direction she left after she left.

At this time, the Zhao family in Huaiyin Brigade was also in an uproar.

How could I not feel sorry for my own child? The county hospital charges high fees, and the work points of Huaiyin Brigade are worthless. If the family had no savings, they would have sent the child to the hospital if they had no other choice.

The eyes of the Zhao family's children are all red. Xiaoliu is the youngest one. He has been raised by his brothers and sisters since he was born.

"Sister Tan will definitely cure Xiaoliu's illness. I'm going to catch eels. Last time, Sister Tan said she wanted to eat eels."

Zhao Xiaosi held back his tears and said stubbornly that among all the educated youth who had come to the team, Sister Tan was the only one who would give candy to them brothers.

Zhao Xiaosi turned around, picked up the bamboo basket in the corner, and walked out the door.

The Zhao brothers also hurried to follow. They were useless and could not make money, nor could they save their brother. But if they wanted the eels in the fields and the game in the mountains, couldn't they have as much as they wanted?

Old man Zhao rushed to the county as soon as he heard the news.

Even though he didn't have a bullock cart, he had a pair of legs and could always walk to the county.

The whole family is waiting with their mouths open for food, but the children's parents have to stay in the brigade to work. If no one goes to work, where will the food come from?

It’s one’s own child, so it’s one thing to trouble others to take him to the hospital, but why bother wasting their time?

It is always difficult to sleep well in the hospital. Tan Yuan woke up before dawn. Not long after waking up, before she even had time to wash her face, there was another mixed flour bun in front of her.

"Eat it, then you and Accountant Zhang can go back to the team."

Tan Yuan paused as she stretched out her hand. "Go back to the team?" What about Zhao Xiaoliu?

"His grandfather is here and is watching the ox cart downstairs."

To be precise, I arrived in the early morning of last night. I couldn't find the ward, so I leaned against the wall on the ground floor of the hospital and took a nap. He was discovered by him who got up early.

Tan Yuan looked up and around, but didn't see Accountant Zhang.

"He has already finished eating."

Tan Yuan nodded, quickly finished the steamed bun in her hand, and followed Guan Jianguo downstairs.

The ox cart was still parked where it was last night, and Accountant Zhang was talking to Old Man Zhao.

Old Man Zhao was originally a skinny old man. When Tan Yuan saw him, she found that he was even thinner than when they first came to the countryside, and he didn't look as energetic as when they first came to the countryside.

Looking at him, I felt inexplicably sad. It was just a few candies, but this kind old man asked his grandson to bring her vegetables and other things every day. If only the Huaiyin Brigade could be a little richer, they wouldn't force such a good person into this state.

This thought suddenly arose in her heart, and she followed Guan Jianguo towards the ox cart.

"Tan Zhiqing, thank you, thank you so much! You saved my little Liuzi's life. From now on, you will be our family's benefactor..."

When Old Man Zhao saw Tan Yuan coming, he hurried to her side and was about to kneel down to her while speaking. His wrinkled face was now full of tears.

As soon as the knee bent, Tan Yuan quickly reached out to support it.

"Grandpa Zhao, don't be like this. This was all caused by me. This is what I should have done."

Old man Zhao shook his head. How could this be caused by Tan Zhiqing? It was clearly due to the negligence of them as parents that things turned out like this. It had nothing to do with Tan Yuan.
