The uncle thought for a while and said, "I can only think of good things. Look, chief, the hoe in my hand is made of fine iron and is worth a lot of money. The government gave it to us directly and let us exchange it for work points."

, I said, Chief, think about it, what are the work points? They are all things we should do. For example, today, we are digging ditches. This is to build water conservancy. This is what our farmers want to do most. This is

It's worth a lot of work points, but there are some things I don't quite understand, like building a greenhouse. How much does it cost to build a greenhouse with so many bricks and coal? What's the use of building it? It says you can eat vegetables.

We ordinary people have been eating pickles every day for our entire lives. What is the use of such precious vegetables?

I also heard that someone will come to guide us in planting apple trees in the near future. Whether this is good or not, I am just worried about whether we can sell so many apples. Chief, what do you think?"

Wang Ming was so dizzy after being told on the phone, what was going on, planting fruit trees, repairing water conservancy, and having greenhouses, and work points, these things he had never heard of in the Soviet Union, and he murmured in his heart.

"It seems that the border area is indeed hiding something."

At this time, a young man ran over and said, "Dad, here it comes, here it comes, a factory has come to the town."

He Laoer said nonchalantly, "It's just a factory. What's there to say? Is it a brick factory or a furniture factory?"

The young man shook his head and said, "No, I heard that he moved here from Shanghai and is a cigarette maker."

When He Laoer heard this, his eyes widened and he said, "Ah, bah, some unscrupulous guy opened it. We finally got rid of all the tobacco smoke. Now there are two smoking cessation centers in the village. Why now?"

There is also a cigarette factory. I will go talk to the mayor right now." Then he looked at Wang Ming and said, "Chief, you have to take care of this matter. This big smoke must not appear in our place again no matter what.

It’s over.”

The young man quickly stamped his feet and said, "Which one says it's cigarettes? It's dry cigarettes, the dry cigarettes you usually smoke, Dad. This is a dry cigarette factory, but they say they are a cigarette factory. I don't know what the difference is."

"Dad, I want to go to the factory." He said looking at the old man eagerly.

He Laoer's face looked better now and he said, "Let me just say, the government will not do such a thing. Baby, I know you don't want to dig in the soil all your life. Your eldest brother went with the army to fight the Japanese. Your second brother went

The mine is over, and you are the only male in the family. If you leave again, what will happen to our fields?"

The young man said, "Dad, can't Third Sister do it too? Fifth Sister is just a child, but Third Sister has grown up."

He Laoer scolded, "Nonsense, your third sister is getting married, how can you keep helping our family? I would rather your third sister go to that cigarette factory than you."

"Really, dad promised me to go?" A girl with braids and patched clothes appeared out of nowhere. The only bright color on her body was probably the red rope on her braids. She said with a smile.

"Dad will keep his promise. I'm going to the factory."

Only then did He Laoer realize that he had fallen into a trap, and he said angrily and funnyly, "You girl, what's so good about that factory that you can deceive your father like this?"

The girl said with a smile, "For no other reason than I heard that you will get a new set of clothes when you enter the factory. That's why I want to enter the factory."

He Laoer looked at the clothes she was wearing that had so many patches that it was hard to see their original appearance and sighed, "This is what my mother left behind. You still don't care about it. You just had two better days, so don't you?"

I know how to cherish it, alas."

The girl didn't say anything, she just tugged at the corner of her clothes, with tears in her eyes. He Laoer couldn't help but feel distressed when he saw it, and quickly said, "Okay, just go, but that's not the mining factory where your second brother went. What should I say there?"

It’s, um, oh, private. This is what my husband taught me, this is a private factory.”

Before he finished speaking, Wang Ming suddenly interrupted and said, "What did you say? A private factory? Is that cigarette factory private?"

He Laoer's son nodded doubtfully and said, "Yes, there have been quite a few recently. It is said that they are encouraged by the government."

"What, are you still encouraging?" Wang Ming was so angry that he immediately rode his horse and ran to the town. He Laoer looked at Wang Ming who was leaving with confusion. He didn't know what he said wrong, shook his head and continued.

"In short, be careful when you go. Okay, I have to work. I can't chat all the time. I am the captain. I have to lead by example."

The girl stuck out her tongue and ran away like the wind. He Laoer's son also hurriedly ran to find the villager who recorded the work points and expressed his willingness to only get half of the work points. Now he went to work on the construction site, which was agreed.
