I Had a Home In 1982 Chapter 58

   Chapter 58 58. General Assembly

   Five o'clock in the afternoon.

   The next work bell rang.

  The members of Tianya Island stopped work and went home.

   At 5:30, the adults who had packed up came to the school playground in twos and threes, arranged in groups of one, two, three or four, a crowd of people.

  Wang Yi was called into the brigade committee.

   Wang Dongxi squatted on the ground, and Wang Xianghong was staring at him with hateful eyes.

   Seeing Wang Yi entering the door, Wang Dongxi quickly stood up: "Mr. Wang is here..."

   "What's your business when he comes?" Wang Xianghong glared at him.

  Wang Dongxi lowered his head and squatted down again.

  Wang Xianghong handed a newspaper to Wang Yi and said, "Take a good look at the part I marked out. Later, you will read it to our members when you come to the stage, and convey this policy to the members."

  Wang Yi took the newspaper and read it.

   An authoritative newspaper, "Jiangnan Daily".

   A few minutes later, Wang Xiangxiong came in and said, "The militia team is back, and they are picking up today's catch. Let the clerk go over and count them and put them in the warehouse?"

Wang Xianghong waved his hand: "I don't need to count or rush to clean up, let the children's team watch, and then we will officially hold a meeting, and all members will have a meeting. This time is a production meeting in our team. The theme of the meeting is to promote production, positive atmosphere, progress together.”

The    militia team was called over in rain boots, and they sat in front of the crowd, one by one in silence.

   Wang Xianghong led Wang Yi and Wang Dongxi out.

  The school playground is equipped with old desks and chairs, and an iron barrel speaker. Usually, the production team holds member meetings here.

  Wang Xianghong looked very angry yesterday, but today he did not target him, not even let him sit with the militia team, but let him and Wang Dongxi sit beside him.

   The militiamen in the front row were stunned.

   They looked at Wang Yi's position on the podium and then looked at their own position:

  I'm just kidding, it seems that Mr. Wang is fine, it's us who have something to do today!

  Wang Xianghong glanced at the venue solemnly.

   Hundreds of attention.

   He said calmly: "We haven't held a member meeting together for some days. Some policies of the higher-level unit have not been communicated in time. Today, I will convey it to my comrades."

"The other thing is that recently, some comrades have grown hair in their thoughts, and some comrades have begun to condone the evil spirits. This is not good. Our production team should hold a member meeting to talk about this matter, and we must bring the atmosphere of our production team back! The spring flood season is also here, I encourage comrades, let's work hard to catch up on production and make contributions to the country!"

   After he finished speaking, he handed the loudspeaker to Wang Yi and said, "Let's first understand some of the current policies, Comrade Wang Yi, come up and read the words in the newspaper in your hand to all our members, and start with this one."

  Wang Yi held a loudspeaker in one hand and a newspaper in the other: "Cough, 'It's good to levy a banquet tax—economically restrain the bad social ethos of extravagance and waste.'"

   "In order to change the bad atmosphere of big speeches, our province will collect banquet tax from February..."

"At present, there is a very bad ethos in society. At weddings and funerals, there are pompous speeches and big banquets. Ten tables and twenty tables are common, and thirty or fifty tables are not uncommon. It adds a lot to the masses. The due burden has also caused a lot of waste to the society.”

   "The masses are very disgusted by this, and hope that the party and the government will take effective measures to change this bad atmosphere..."

"Our province levies banquet tax and restricts economic measures for large banquets, which reflects the common aspiration of the people. This will help change the bad atmosphere of eating and drinking in the society and reduce the people's problems caused by comparison. The burden is a good promotion for correcting the country's customs..."

   "I hope that the people can act in the spirit of diligence and thrift, put an end to extravagance and waste, and strive for a further improvement in social atmosphere with practical actions!"

"Finish!"

  Wang Yi calmly looked at the crowd below after reading it.

   As long as I'm not embarrassed, it's others who are embarrassed - I don't have to be extravagant, this policy has nothing to do with me.

   Wang Xianghong asked him: "Comrade Wang Yi, when is this newspaper? Is it from the past few years?"

  Wang Yi said: "No, it's a newspaper that was just printed on April 5th this year, the news that was just released."

  Wang Xianghong nodded with satisfaction: "Yes, it is the newspapers and news on Qingming Day this year, what does this mean?"

   "It shows that the country is still in a relatively difficult period, and the masses of the people need to continue to uphold the spirit of hard work, diligence and thrift to contribute to the development of the country! Right?"

   "Yes!" The members below responded in unison.

Wang Xianghong was very satisfied with their attitude, and pointed at the militia group: "As a result, some comrades now see that our country has made progress, development, and living standards have improved, and then they are lazy, thinking that we can be greedy for pleasure. , is that right?"

   "No!" Everyone continued in unison.

Wang Xianghong was even more satisfied, and his spirit became more and more vigorous: "Everyone in the team understands the situation recently. At night, you people in the militia team eat and drink, and the fragrance wafts all over the island. The daughter-in-law is drooling."

   "Now everyone has no heart to work when they go to work, and they are discussing with each other how to eat well and deliciously, which seriously affects the enthusiasm for labor!"

He talked about this topic impassively. He didn't point the gun at Wang Yi and Wang Dongxi. He just talked about struggle and contribution, and then talked about the busy spring at sea, asking the members to work hard to grab the spring tide and give more to the country. , for collective fishing.

   Wang Yi's listening was quite exciting. He thought he was going to criticize himself at the meeting today. Unexpectedly, Party Secretary just slapped him sideways, and he was more about arranging work. He thought too much last night.

  Wang Xin was red and radiant, and he talked about it for a long time.

   It started to cool down.

   This makes the members impatient, they are starving.

   And after Wang Xianghong made plans for the spring offshore operation, he turned the topic to hard work. He began to sublimate the theme of today's production conference:

"In the past two months, the sea has been busy in spring, and I found that it is not only these comrades who advocate eating and drinking, but also many members of the commune who see people outside driving on diesel boats, and then they are envious and feel that they are Tired of swaying!"

"Here I have to tell the big guys about the secretary of the sea again - this incident happened around us, and it is Comrade Xu Jinjin, the party secretary of the General Supply and Marketing Cooperative." After speaking, he began to introduce the deeds of the model workers. .

   "Comrade Xu Jinjin is familiar to everyone. He is my old comrade-in-arms. He comes to Tianya Island every year as a guest. He changed his career two years later than me. He is a professional cadre. He used to be an officer in the army!"

   "After he came to the locality, he became an official, but he was not like an official. He always maintained the quality of serving the people, and consciously practiced the three things with the fishermen, eating, living and working together."

   "Even the former first secretary of the prefectural party committee praised him, saying that he is "more sweaty than fishermen, more fishy and sticky than fishermen, and does more heavy work than fishermen".

   The more he talked, the more vigorous the members became.

  The sea breeze is also cold and I am still hungry.

   Watching him criticize the big guys in the militia in front of you can still watch the excitement and watch the freshness, it will naturally not be happy to hear him criticize all members of the public—

   I cheered when I criticized others, and when I criticized myself, I was my mother.

   And Wang Xianghong also took Xu Jinjin's past as an example. He has said this many times, and the big guy's ears are full of calluses. Naturally, he is getting more and more impatient.

  Wang Xianghong is not stupid either.

   Even though the sky was dark, night did not come. He could hear sighs and see frowns, so he was angry.

"...Secretary Xu went to the office building, but he never stood tall, let alone eat, drink, and enjoy himself. He never forgot the fishermen and fishermen. As long as he entered the fishermen's unit and the outer island team, he would share a pot with the big guys. Eat and sleep in the same bed!"

   As he spoke, he scanned the audience with a gloomy face.

In the end, when someone yawned, he couldn't help but burst out: "What's your attitude towards a production meeting in our team? What time is it? It's not even six o'clock. Impatient? I want ended?"

   "You don't like to listen to me, do you? Okay! Then if I don't say anything, you just sit for me until seven o'clock!"

   "The documents look at the watch, and no one will try to lift my ass!"

  Wang Yi saw that this would not work.

  Wang Xianghong spared his life today, he didn't criticize him except for beating him a few words, and he didn't attack him, which made him take advantage.

   And one of the reasons why he can take advantage of it is that Wang Xianghong is not very angry. If he is angry, he will definitely find a way to vent, then his comfortable days may come to an end!

   After hesitating for a while, he went to appease Wang Xianghong: "Secretary, don't be angry yet..."

   "Are you impatient? Do you want to end the conference?" Wang Xianghong asked him unceremoniously.

  Wang Yi quickly stated: "No, I am very excited to participate in our team's collective production meeting for the first time, how can I be impatient?"

   "I don't think our members and comrades are impatient. It's just that the big guy realized his mistake. Your words are really inspiring and powerful, and they have indeed served the purpose of punishing the past and preventing the future, and curing the disease and saving people!"

  Wang Xianghong sneered: "You think I'm old and confused? Look at them like this, one by one can't wait to grow wings and fly home, do you realize that you are wrong?"

  Wang Yi said, "That's absolutely not the case. It's your criticism, Secretary Secretary, that makes everyone feel ashamed and can't sit still."

  Wang Xianghong sneered again, he can't be fooled.

   He said: "Then I won't criticize everyone, everyone, let's sit down to the meeting, I will sit with you, so that no one will say that I am a patriarch!"

   Then he really sat on the ground.

  Wang Dongxi gave Wang Yi a look for help: "You are a cultural person, what should I do about this?"

  Wang Yi gave a wry smile and asked in a low voice, "Does the secretary have any hobbies? Or if we mention something to make him happy?"

  Wang Dongxi thought for a while and then whispered: "He loves listening to storytelling, "Yue Fei's Biography", "Yang Jiajiang", "The Fire King"—but it's useless, and there's no storytelling on the radio at night."

   After hearing his words, Wang Yi clapped his hands.

  No one said on the radio, that's up to me!

   Telling stories and reading novels, search for a thief!

   As if he was reading the newspaper just now, he went directly to the desk and sat down and said, "Secretary, fellow comrade members, it's boring to sit there, let me tell you a storytelling."

   "The big guy doesn't have any entertainment activities on weekdays. I tell a storytelling and a story, which can be regarded as responding to the call of the central government and enriching the spiritual life of the people!"

   The audience was stunned.

   Wang Xianghong frowned and wanted to get angry, but the words came to his mouth and said, "You still talk about storytelling? Do you have this ability? Then you can talk about it."

  Wang Yi said that he went to the toilet first.

  Going into the toilet, he took out his mobile phone and found the audiobook software to read the previously cached content, and then put on a Bluetooth headset on his ear.

   It happened to be cold these two days, so he put on a hat and covered his ears, so that he could hear the software playback clearly.

   Of course, it is impossible to repeat word by word, but the person in the software speaks slowly, and he can keep up with the content when repeating it.

After about   , he went back and sat down, picked up the loudspeaker and began to speak in cadence:

   "Members and comrades, then today I, Xiao Wang, are ugly. I will write a story to the big guy. If it is not good, the big guy will criticize and forgive a lot. If it is good, everyone will applaud, encourage and encourage."

   "Okay, watch the officers and sit down, let's start!"

   "Cough!"

   "My family has a taboo history, and since I was a child, I was strictly asked not to tell the public. But now I am cursed soon, so I made a decision against my ancestors, and I want to tell everyone about it."

"This matter starts with my grandfather. His name is Hu Guohua. His ancestor was a famous landowner in eight townships. He bought more than 40 houses connected by three hutongs in the city during his most glorious period. Some officials and businessmen, who have donated the grain and troughs of the previous Qing Dynasty..."
