The Era of Hard Work

"All villagers pay attention, all villagers pay attention!"

As soon as the sun set, Lu Zhenlin’s voice sounded from the loudspeaker erected high on the telegraph pole at the gate of the Lujia Village’s brigade’s courtyard: “Tonight’s bid to host the Olympic Games will be announced, and the TV station will broadcast live. Big color TV..."

People kept coming out of the brigade's yard, moved firecrackers and fireworks, and placed them in the gate of the brigade's yard and in the classroom near the stage of the old school, waiting for the results of the bid to be announced in the evening.

The old school and the big stage facing the spacious playground have become a place for the villagers of Lujia Village to spend their spare time since Qingzhao County and Provincial University volunteers came to do legal activities. A lot of activities have been carried out, in addition to popularizing legal knowledge and preventing pyramid schemes, but also changing customs and eliminating some bad habits in rural areas as much as possible.

For example, more and more excessive marriage troubles, repeated gambling in rural areas, various favor gifts and so on.

Many of them were brought up by Lu Dong, and with the prosperity of Lujia Village, some symptoms will inevitably appear, and management must be strengthened, otherwise Lujia Village may rot from the root while being rich.

These things cannot be completely eradicated anywhere, but the effect is there after all, and it is relatively obvious.

As soon as it got dark, all the lights in the old school playground were turned on and the lights were brightly lit.

Soon hundreds of people gathered in the village, and the children who were on holiday even ran around all over the place, just like a festival.

Nail rode a 26 bicycle and carried Lu Lanlan into the old school. Uncle Li, the gatekeeper, immediately shouted: "Both of you, put the bicycle on the east side, don't ride on the playground, there are too many people today!"

"Okay!" Lu Lanlan responded, jumped off the car, and pushed the nails: "You go and put the bicycle, and I will grab a seat."

Carrying a big convenience bag, she ran to the playground, only to find that there were too many people, so she could only go to the back seat. She turned her eyes and saw Brother Dong sitting with her father, and hurried over there go.

"Dongzi, Suzhou Province in the south is not far away, and now you can go to Pengcheng directly through the highway." Iron Rooster is fighting for the market: "The goods over there are still handed over to the factory for production, and I guarantee the quality and quantity of supply! "

His food processing factory, backed by the food company in the village and Lu Dong's Lu's Catering, has grown in scale a long time ago. It is even more powerful than Li Jiazhu's decoration company. It is second only to the two village-run companies in Lu's Village, and its output value can reach Ranked third.

Lu Dong reminded: "Uncle Tie, it's not that the northern part of Jiangsu Province can't continue to let you supply goods. You have to consider one thing. The transportation cost will increase, but the purchase price from my side cannot be changed."

Iron Rooster had an account in mind and said, "I have no problem here."

The two parties have been cooperating for so long and there have been no major problems. Naturally, Lu Dong would not hesitate to say, "So, Uncle Tie, you go to the company these two days and talk to Xu Man about it."

Iron Rooster laughed: "OK, OK, OK."

In a good mood, he went to other places. When he was walking, he couldn't help but turn on the radio switch, and there were singing voices floating out.

"I don't care how many reincarnations I wait, I don't care about laughter accompanied by tears. Beyond waking up from a dream, we fly together. You and I need to face it sincerely, let life reminisce about this moment, and let the years remember this time..."

The singing gradually faded away, and Lu Lanlan ran over.

"Brother Dong." Lu Lanlan sat on the stool, looked at Lu Dong, feeling a little bit reluctant, but still opened the convenience bag in her hand: "Do you want to eat?"

Lu Dong smiled: "I don't eat."

Lu Lanlan breathed a sigh of relief, and looked at the TV on the big stage: "The TV is too small, it would be great if it could play like a movie."

A large color TV close to forty, placed in this kind of place, the screen is really not enough to see.

Lu Dong said: "It will be fine when we move to the new village, and then we can get a big projector to play." He asked, "Lan Lan, do you have to go to high school?"

"Go to high school when school starts." Lu Lanlan's school has always been very good: "I will go to the high school attached to the Provincial University in the university town."

Lu Dong nodded: "Study hard, at least you will have to go to a provincial university in the future."

Nail came over with his pockets in hand, opened the stool and sat down, and said, "Brother Dong, you have to put a little pressure on Sister Lan Lan, why don't you want to get into Tsinghua University and Peking University."

Lu Lanlan said: "Hey, you brat, you are quite lenient. You can talk about me after you get into high school."

After the summer vacation, Nail will go to junior high school. It may be because of growing up, or maybe the seven uncles and seven aunts have less quarrels. Nail does not look like a monkey like before.

Nail groaned and said, "This time I took the graduation exam, and I was in the top 15 in my class!"

This is really a new thing, Lu Dong praised: "Good, there is progress!"

It turned out that Nail's grades were particularly stable, comparable to those of Lu Dong when he was in school.

Lu Lanlan poked the head of the nail with her finger: "You should study hard and don't slip out again. Uncle Qi said that if you don't get into high school, the three acres of land at home will be yours."

Nail made a bitter face: "My dad doesn't know how to grow it himself, and still asks me to grow it. How can there be such a reason."

Lu Dong deliberately added: "Then learn the craft from your father."

Nail stopped talking, after all, he grew up, he could hear and remember some things, his father was so busy in the past six months, he taught a group of apprentices, and from time to time someone came to the house to ask for a teacher. All the brothers call him little brother.

Maybe Nail doesn't know himself well, but Uncle Seven, who is a father, is gradually different in the eyes of his son, and he also has something called prestige.

Lu Dong patted his nails: "Study hard, and I will try to get into a good university in the future, just like your brother Wen Yue."

"Brother Wenyue is here." Lu Lanlan pointed.

Sure enough, Li Wenyue went to the playground with several people from the village committee. When he saw Lu Dong, he immediately looked for him.

Lu Lanlan made room for Li Wenyue, and ran to sit on a stool with Nail.

Lu Dong asked, "Why are you back?"

Li Wenyue pointed to the TV: "I won't come back and watch it in the village." He mentioned one thing: "Your two advertisements are very powerful, and there are many people discussing them in the school."

Lu Dong laughed: "This shows that it has worked."

Li Wenyue asked, "Does our food company need to find a spokesperson?"

Lu Dong thought for a while and said: "If there is a suitable one, you can find one. The food company is big and develops faster than my side. If you want to look for it, find a heavy weight one, preferably younger. Don't look for Tang. This kind of teacher."

When people see and hear the sound, they think of excavators.

Li Wenyue's participation in the affairs of the village company is also increasing day by day, and he understands the meaning of Lu Dong's words: "The main consumers of our bagged snacks are still young people."

"Yes." Lu Dong reminded: "So, you have to find one that is popular with young people."

"Little Swallow?" Li Wenyue was the first to think of it.

Lu Dong shook his head and gave a random reason: "I have contacted here before, so it's not suitable."

That matter, I really can’t wash it, what should I say? Water in the head? Seems like it's been two years.

Li Wenyue said: "I'll take a look and talk about it if I find something suitable."

Lu Dong asked another question: "This summer vacation is over, and it will be the last school year."

Li Wenyue continued: "October, November at the latest, I can come out for an internship, and come back directly to join the company."

"Do it well." Lu Dong encouraged Li Wenyue: "You major in business administration, and our village food company will count on you in the future."

Li Wenyue couldn't help laughing: "Just laugh at me, without you, I don't even have the confidence."

While the two were talking, the live TV broadcast started, and the playground fell silent.

These days, although people in rural areas are generally not well-educated, their simple patriotic enthusiasm is not low, and they pay a lot of attention to national affairs.

The bid to host the Olympic Games has gone through various campaigns, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it has attracted the attention of the whole people.

Near ten o'clock, Samaranch suddenly got up and walked onto the rostrum with the envelope of voting statistics.

Anyone who understands the voting rules of the Olympic Committee knows that this is an early result.

"The result is coming!" someone in the crowd shouted.

Someone answered, "I'm going to win!"

Another yelled, "Quiet! Quiet!"

Lu Dong could hear that Li Wenyue next to him was breathing a little short of breath.

Samaranch announced the final result - Beijing!

With its extraordinary advantages and perfect statement report, China stood out among the five bid cities for the 2008 Olympic Games and won the right to host the 2008 Olympic Games!

Wow——

On the TV screen, the Chinese delegation burst into jubilation.

On the big playground, hundreds of people also shouted "Yes!"

Lu Dong took out the lighter he had prepared in advance, and called to Li Wenyue: "Go, let's set off the firecrackers!"

A dozen young people left the playground and followed Lu Dong to set off firecrackers.

In just two or three minutes, the firecrackers in Lujia Village exploded, the fireworks blared, and gorgeous flowers bloomed in the sky.

The sound of crackling firecrackers sounded in many places.

University City, Qingzhao County, Quannan City, and even all places with Lu's restaurant, firecrackers sounded at this moment, and fireworks continued to rise into the sky.

In many places, many drivers honked their car horns to celebrate this victory.

In each store of Lu's Catering, every seat was filled, even people standing in the aisle, when Samaranch announced the result, cheers erupted like a tsunami, and Lu's Catering greeted every customer who entered the store, Send out a "Victory China" souvenir!

At this moment, countless people took to the streets to celebrate, and the whole country was jubilant!

There were constant fireworks in Lujia Village, and Lu Dong received a call from Song Na.

It was a bit chaotic over there, shouting excitedly, and Song Na was also very excited: "Win! Lu Dong, China has won!"

Lu Dong replied loudly: "That's right, we won!"

Song Na shouted: "Lu Dong, we must go to the Olympic Games in 2008!"

Lu Dong smiled and promised: "I will definitely go! Then we will bring our family with us!"

At the gate of the village committee compound, firecrackers sounded again. Lu Dong couldn't hear Song Na's voice clearly on the phone, so he just said, "Let's go with the whole family!"

The Olympic bid was successful, and the whole country rejoiced, reveling all night long.

Lu Dong looked at the fireworks exploding in the sky and cheered for China's victory! Victory China!
