Back to the 60s: The Struggle Career of a Charmed Wife

A human-powered flatbed truck can hold up to more than a thousand kilograms of items. A mule cart or horse-drawn carriage is larger and can double the weight of items. A tractor can double the weight of items compared to a mule cart or horse-drawn carriage.

Xibao is very good at arithmetic. A tractor can make seven or eight trips with a human-powered flatbed truck.

The most important thing is that it is not tiring.

Xibao was of course unable to think of this at such a young age, but Father Lu thought about it. The ups and downs outside had not subsided. If he wanted the Lu family to gain a firm foothold, everyone in the Wanglou Brigade would have to be the beneficiaries.

Father Lu taught him the words, and Father Lu asked him to ask for the tractor on the premise that the country would reward him.

In fact, Huaihai City has always had quotas for agricultural machinery, but there were too few, and it was not the Wanglou brigade’s turn.

This kind of good thing basically depends on whoever has strong connections can benefit his own commune or brigade. Cheng Baoguo thought about getting a walking tractor for Wanglou brigade to change the situation of human livestock farming, but he failed several times. success.

Huaihai City is not his one word.

Although some people think that the Wanglou Brigade is in good condition and has a name in front of the old leader, and should be supported so that they can develop better and bring greater glory to Huaihai City, some people think that because the Wanglou Brigade has developed so well, Well, we don’t need help from the state, so we have to support other backward production brigades.

Now Xibao wanted a tractor. Wang Zhengguo, who was present at the time, was overjoyed. He didn't expect Xibao to ask such a question, but when he thought of Lu's father, he no longer felt strange.

Seeing Xibao's clear and expectant eyes, what could the two veteran cadres who met him with Cheng Baoguo say? Of course, I praised him. I felt that he was dedicated to the interests of the collective at a young age, had advanced ideas, and was selfless. He immediately applied for a walking tractor of the latest model that was already in use. It was fully equipped and could be used for farming and transportation.

In view of the huge contribution of hundreds of thousands of yuan worth of gold handed over to the country, the meeting voted to find a way to get another threshing machine for the Wanglou Brigade, which can be driven by a tractor.

So, while the relevant departments were writing reports and applications, they took people to the place where Xibao discovered the gold and continued digging to see if there was any gold in the ground. They dug for many days and dug holes, but finally found nothing. Instead, tractors and threshing machines arrived.

The tractor and threshing machine with big red flowers tied on them were sent to the Wanglou Brigade, and all that was left was to beat the gongs and drums.

Xibao suddenly became a famous person, extremely popular.

Cheng Baoguo was very considerate and specially arranged experts to teach them how to use tractors and threshing machines. The first tractor driver in Wanglou Brigade was Wang Zhengguo's eldest grandson Wang Chengkun. This boy learned quickly and was courageous, and he quickly got started.

Of course, it was also because Cheng Baoguo was entrusted by Lu Jiang and Feng Qingxue to arrange work for Lu Tianzhi and Guan Yu after the busy farming season was over.

Lu Tianzhi and Guan Yu knew more than Wang Chengkun, so they didn't come forward.

After Cheng Baoguo and the experts left, the newspaper staff who came to take pictures also left. The men, women, and children of the Wanglou brigade surrounded the tractor and thresher in an airtight manner, which was as lively as eating meat during the New Year.

“Build a house, build a house, we have to build a house for the tractor and the thresher to protect it from the wind, rain, and sun!”

I don’t know who made this suggestion, and it received a positive response from everyone.

"Yes, yes, this thing is precious. We have to take good care of it. The livestock is our father, and these two things are our grandfather!"
