Baiyue Cave Master

Wang Yuanchao is not in a hurry now. He is planning to hide well in the Red Flag Brigade and live a good life.

As for how much contribution he can make to society, Wang Yuanchao feels that it is better to be casual, not force, not refuse, not take the initiative, not delve into it, and just let nature take its course.

Wang Yuanchao, who knew the direction of history, knew that no matter how much he gave or how great his contribution was in this era, it would only be accumulation for certain people in the future.

In this era, my family background makes it impossible for me to enter politics, gain political capital, and waste my youth.

He couldn't undermine socialism as that was too dangerous, so Wang Yuanchao's choice was to lie down and wait and see.

Wang Yuanchao, who was so tired that he could hardly bend his back, finally heard the gong ringing to signal the end of work.

He washed the mud off his hands with the muddy water from the paddy field, then pounded his back hard, slowly straightened up, smiled at Aunt Junlan with difficulty, and said:

"Aunt Junlan, transplanting rice doesn't look tiring, but it's actually really tiring. We're finally done. How many centimeters did we gain today?"

"Hey, Wang Zhiqing, you are great. We have completed our mission today and got full centimeters.

I am not praising you, but you are a young man who has never worked in the fields since childhood, and you can get full work points every day just after working in the fields.

You are the first one in our Red Flag Brigade. Look at those second-rate guys in our brigade. Every day when they hear that they have to go to the fields to work, they start complaining about the hardship, cheating, and cursing their parents.

Compared to you, these young people in the village are far behind."

"Haha, Aunt Junlan, don't tell others about this. It will only make me hate you.

Besides, I am different from them. They were born and raised here, but I came to the countryside with a belief that I could contribute to the rural construction of our country.

The two sides have different ideas, so the results will definitely be different.”

After spending so many days together, Aunt Junlan really admired Wang Yuanchao. He was handsome, gentle, polite, and hardworking.

He is not lazy or cunning. For a young man from the city, he is very generous and does not look down on any rural areas. He is really an outstanding young man.

It's a pity that such an outstanding young man cannot meet the one who comes from the village. The girls in the village are so unlucky.

"By the way, Wang Zhiqing, I heard that Secretary Zeng and his team went to the commune for a meeting. After the rice planting in the brigade was finished,

The public society organized people from the brigade to build a hydroelectric power station on the Songhua River.

I heard that you can grow 20 centimeters a day and eat meat once a week.

This is a great opportunity to earn cents, Wang Zhiqing, remember to sign up when the time comes. "

The spring ploughing was finally over, and Wang Yuanchao had some time to rest. He had no shortage of money or supplies, so how could he possibly go and build a hydroelectric power station?

So he said to Aunt Junlan with a smile:

"Aunt Junlan, I have been in our Red Flag Brigade for quite some time.

I discovered that the people in our rural areas are really poor and their lives are really hard.

Now our team has a rare opportunity to make money.

We must give priority to the more needy families in the village.

As for me, my family is well off, and I receive a subsidy for martyrs' families every month.

In terms of living conditions, they are much better than the ordinary people in the brigade.

So I will not sign up, and I will not compete with others for a job quota at the hydropower station.

These places should be provided to those in the village who are more in need.”

As Aunt Junlan listened to Wang Yuanchao's righteous refusal and noble statement, the expression of admiration on her face became more and more obvious.

"Wang Zhiqing, you are such a noble person. If everyone in the village were as noble as you, there wouldn't be so many problems in our village."

"Haha, Aunt Junlan, it's not as good as you say. I just think that our peasant comrades have too few ways to make money, and I don't want to compete with them.

It's not as good as you say.

Oh, Aunt Junlan, when all the strong laborers in our brigade go to build the hydroelectric power station, what will happen to our farm work?"

Aunt Junlan smiled in surprise and said:

"After the spring ploughing, the only work left in the fields is some light work such as watering, weeding, and patrolling.

Except when there is a severe drought, the entire village labor force is needed to carry water to irrigate the fields.

Generally, this kind of easy work can be done by the old women in the village.

In the past, the brigade needed to reclaim wasteland, dig canals, and dig rivers.

Now all the land that can be reclaimed by our Red Flag Brigade has been reclaimed.

Rivers, canals, reservoirs and other water conservancy facilities have also been built and improved.

Naturally, our team doesn't have that much work to do.

If the hydropower station had not been built, we would not have much to earn every day just by doing the farm work.

Now, the strong laborers in the village can go to the hydropower station to earn centimeters.

We old ladies can do the farm work, and everyone will earn a lot more this year, so the villagers can have a prosperous New Year. "

After listening to Aunt Junlan's detailed introduction, Wang Yuanchao thought for a moment and said:

"Aunt Junlan, is it that people like me who don't go to the hydropower station,

Do I have to compete with the aunties, grandmas and young wives in the village for jobs?

Aunt Junlan, if I don't do the easy jobs in the village, will it have any impact?"

"Hey, there's not much work to do in the fields, and everyone is rushing to do it. If you don't do it, what impact will it have?

As long as it is not the period of spring ploughing, autumn harvest and tax payment, and your family has enough food, no one will say anything if you don't go to work.

There is less work during the slack season, and everyone is eager for it.

Moreover, Wang Zhiqing, you work so hard. You get full work points every day during the spring plowing. Plus there is the autumn harvest. With your work points, you don't have to worry about not having enough food at the end of the year.

So whether you want to go to work or not depends on your actual situation."

Hearing this, Wang Yuanchao was overjoyed. What a joke! The people of the whole country were short of food, and so were I.

It seems that my decision to come to the Red Flag Brigade to go to the countryside was absolutely the right one.

Now, I can be dignified and give the opportunity to earn cents to the villagers who are in worse conditions.

Being able to take a break openly and reasonably, this life is simply wonderful.

Thinking of this, Wang Yuanchao said expressionlessly:

"If that's the case, then I definitely can't compete with the aunties, aunties, and young wives in the village for work.

It is not easy for everyone to have an extra bite to eat.

I will go to the mountains more often and chop more firewood to store up more firewood for the winter.

I have heard from everyone that the winter here is very long and very cold.

If we don’t have enough firewood in the winter, we’ll freeze to death.”
