Chapter 781 777. Quarrel
As soon as Luo Yihang returned to the village, he saw the old branch secretary Erdeni arguing with several soldiers.
Why did they quarrel? What happened? What was the conflict?
Luo Yihang hurried over to ask.
When the old village party secretary saw that it was Luo Yihang, he immediately grabbed him and pointed at the soldiers.
"They are so outrageous! They actually want to buy vegetables and spend money to cook for the soldiers. Isn't this a slap in my face?"
So that's what happened.
Luo Yihang resolutely stood on the side of the old branch secretary and shouted: "No, absolutely not. How can we let the soldiers buy food when we arrive at Piyinggetai Village!"
We are our own people. The old Party secretary and several villagers shouted together: "Yes! That's right!"
At this time, the sound attracted another soldier dressed as an officer.
After inquiring about the situation.
He advised earnestly: "Old man, we have discipline..."
Before he finished speaking, the old branch secretary waved his hand and said, "I don't care about your discipline. You have to listen to me when you are here!"
You can't be tough.
The officer couldn't be tough, so he had to continue to persuade him in a gentle voice: "Old man, our village is not easy either. I heard it is still a poor village. We have one or two thousand people coming here, and the pressure on the village to entertain them is too great."
That’s all I have to say.
Luo Yihang stepped forward and patted his chest, "The village has no money, but my boss has money. I buy things from the village for the soldiers. Anyway, I can't let you spend money."
This time, the old Party Secretary was not happy again. "Why should I ask you to pay for it? You bought all the water, medicine and machines. Where can I ask you to buy more?"
This means that early this morning, Luo Yihang had people purchase a truckload of mineral water, a bunch of medicines for injuries and sprains, and medical supplies such as gauze and iodine for treating wounds.
With so many people working in the fields, it's inevitable that some will bump into things.
Luo Yihang hurriedly advised: "Old Party Secretary, let's be a united front and not have conflicts. At most, I'll count it as your purchase of potato seeds in the future. I'll give you a smaller discount. Our two families have a long-term relationship, so let's not settle the details and be united against the outside world."
The old village chief was confused all of a sudden. "Discount? What discount? When did you say there was a discount?"
But now is not the time to talk about this, let’s unite first and face the outside world.
Seeing that no amount of persuasion was effective, the officer simply gave up.
He gave an order directly to the side, "Arrange people to go to the surrounding area to purchase, and let our kitchen team do it ourselves."
Come to this, right?
The old branch secretary also gave an order on the spot, "Cut off their water and electricity, and don't let them start cooking. I want to see what they can do!"
Man, he even figured out how to clear the field with a vertical wall.
The old branch secretary is so domineering!
Nice job.
Luo Yihang couldn't just stand by and watch, so he started another fire, "Old Party Secretary, please call their superiors and complain that they don't eat the food prepared by the village, which is destroying the close relationship between the army and the people. I will arrange for all the villagers to start cooking on the big stoves, so that we can cook all the food. Not eating it is a waste of food."
If we talk about bad people, Luo Yihang is the worst.
Raising the banner of moral kidnapping will always be successful.
The officer had no choice but to agree.
Wouldn't it have been better if this had been done earlier?
After friendly negotiations, the two sides reached an agreement.
The old branch secretary gave an order.
Every household in the village built a stove, set up a pot and started a fire in the village drying yard.
The big white steamed buns are steamed and the fragrant pancakes are baked.
Kill chickens and sheep, and stew them in a big pot.
Luo Yihang also arranged for people to go to the surrounding villages to purchase fresh vegetables and fruits, paying attention to the combination of meat and vegetables.
The officer was right. Piyingtai Village alone could not accommodate so many people.
However, if several villages joined forces, there would be no problem. Luo Yihang had the money. It didn't take long for all kinds of vegetables to be delivered.
The people sent by Luo Yihang were also very honest. They took back whatever was needed without even settling the bill.
Now that things have come to this, the kitchen team that came with the troops decided to come over to help.
I always hear that the army’s kitchen team is very powerful.
This time, I saw that it was really amazing.
Move fast, too fast.
Not only is it made quickly, but it is also made well, with great color, aroma and taste.
How good is it?
Later on, the villagers were only responsible for preparing staple foods and stewing mutton soup, and left everything else to the kitchen team.
I am convinced, I am completely convinced...
-
Dinner starts at 12 noon.
The meals were delivered directly to the fields.
Each person held a large piece of mutton and ate it, and drank a large bowl of mutton soup to warm the stomach.
Then there are all kinds of stir-fried dishes and fruits. You can eat whatever you like and add more as you like.
There are plenty of steamed buns and pancakes.
We invited the soldiers to help in the middle of the night. No other conditions were met, but they had to have a good meal.
The soldiers were unaware of the quarrel that took place before the meal.
After sitting in the car for half the night and working for the whole morning, the soldiers were hungry.
Everyone ate happily and chatted while eating.
"I thought we would have big potatoes today, because we picked so many. Hey, why are there so many potatoes here? I wonder what they taste like. I heard that those with high yields don't taste good. I don't know if it's true..."
This morning brought many questions to the soldiers.
The villagers who were eating with the soldiers also joined in the conversation, "The yield is high and the food is delicious. But the potatoes today are not delicious. They are particularly bad. A child in the village secretly dug some out and found that they were not delicious whether they were roasted or steamed. They had no taste at all, and were not fragrant or sweet. They were soft and watery, like eating paste..."
This is strange. "Then why do you grow it? And why do you grow so many of them?"
The soldier who had talked to Luo Yihang before heard it and came over to show off happily.
"This potato is not for eating. It is a chemical raw material. The production is so high just to lower the price of chemical raw materials so that it can be exported, and then sweep all other markets in the world and squeeze them out. This thing is only available in our family, the only one..."
The villagers nodded and gave a thumbs up. "You really know a lot. Our village party secretary also said that potatoes are a raw material for making alcohol. Not the alcohol we drink, and it has no taste. It's the alcohol used for disinfection. Even though we can't eat it, we can sell it for a lot of money."
The two sides said something different.
The first soldier who started the conversation was confused. "Hey, didn't you say it was a chemical raw material? How did it become alcohol?"
"You are uneducated and don't study hard. Hmm, you are ignorant." Platoon leader Zheshi came over and said.
He had nothing to do just now, so he went to ask his superiors about it, and now he came here to show off to the soldiers.
"Industrial alcohol and medical alcohol are both made from starch, which is found in potatoes. Industrial alcohol is a chemical raw material. The glucose used in IV drips is also considered a chemical raw material."
"This thing. Only a few countries in the world have this technology. Our country's technology is the strongest."
"But its raw material is grain, which is very precious. We dare not make too much. We can only use it for ourselves."
"Alcohol has many uses. It is needed everywhere in the world, but we can't make it. We have to buy it from a few countries that don't care about food. It's extremely expensive. If you cut a wound and disinfect it, you'll spend a day's food money."
"Now, we have Qiuyan No. 9, which is the big potato we picked up today. It can lower the price of alcohol, and it doesn't take up food, and the yield is large."
"When we produce more, we can export it, and then we can control others..."
Wow, that's a very pleasant thing to say.
The soldiers were all very excited after hearing this.
But the content...
