Ma Xiaoyan returned to the county propaganda office and reported directly to the leaders that Li Long was helping herdsmen cut grass with a lawnmower in the mountains.
Ma Xiaoyan’s direct boss is the deputy director of the propaganda agency. His official position is a member of the Standing Committee and he has a lot to do. The deputy director is in charge of daily work here.
Hearing what Ma Xiaoyan said, the deputy adjusted his glasses and picked up two newspapers from the front of his desk.
One is the news from Li Longshang Autonomous Region Daily, and the other is the news from Shangzhou Daily.
They all directly indicate that it is Li Long from Ma County, but unfortunately they are not written by the propaganda department.
"Xiao Ma, the situation you reported is very timely. Just wait a moment. I will go to the Standing Committee to ask for instructions. If the Standing Committee agrees, you can follow us to the mountains in our compound's car and conduct a good interview. < br>
By the way, don’t just record Li Long’s life, but also record the words of those herdsmen. Didn’t Yelaya follow you? If not, let her translate it.”
said. Deputy Wan walked over to the standing committee office with the newspaper. Ma Xiaoyan returned to her office - a big office where several people could stay together.
For the past ten minutes, Ma Xiaoyan was like an ant on the stove, very anxious, but with her colleagues around, she couldn't show it.
To be honest, on the one hand, she wants to make progress, but on the other hand, she is a little unwilling. When it came to Li Long, she took Yelaya's manuscript and sent it to the county radio station. Later, she also followed Zhang Xinhua from beginning to end.
It's normal for Zhang Xinhua's article not to include her name. After all, she was just accompanying him. But she didn't follow up. She made a mistake when Li Long used the harvester, so she was unwilling to accept it.
There is obviously a model around us, why haven’t we always caught it?
Let’s not let others grab me. I was very passive. My boss told me to go to the supply and marketing cooperative to look for materials.
Of course, it’s a good thing that I went there, otherwise I wouldn’t have known that Li Long had done this quietly!
This is more news material than a harvester cutting wheat and getting rich!
After all, it was in the same vein as the interview with the Autonomous Region Daily. Ma Xiaoyan felt that it was inevitable to go to the Zhouzhou Daily after writing this material. Maybe the Autonomous Region Daily could also give it a try.
Even though this is a county propaganda agency, there are not many big articles that can be published in the autonomous region daily newspaper throughout the year. After all, there are sixteen prefectures and cities, sixty or seventy counties, and so many corps units in the entire autonomous region.
A few small articles can be published a year, but tofu cubes are still a rarity in township publicity circles, and they don’t pay much attention to them at the county level.
If you want to be published, then publish it in a big manuscript!
In Ma Xiaoyan's uneasy mood, the deputy came out of the Standing Committee Office and called her in the corridor:
"Director Ma!"
Ma Xiaoyan stood up suddenly, ignoring the strange looks from her colleagues, and walked out quickly.
"The Standing Committee agreed and approved the note. Here, you go tell the bus driver and ask them to send a car. I'll go back tomorrow, is that enough?"
"That's enough." That's enough!" Ma Xiaoyan nodded vigorously, "Then take it. Do you have any other instructions? If not, I will go now."
"Go home and tell your family first," the deputy said, "Are you going to take Xiaoye with you? ”
Ma Xiaoyan nodded to express that she understood, and then went to prepare.
There is no recording equipment these days, so interviews only require paper and pen. Going into the mountains is not going into the city. There is no need to bring money or food stamps. The main thing is to bring thick clothes. Ma Xiaoyan still has this common sense.
So Li Long waited for a while after making a call at the supply and marketing cooperative, and what he waited for was the BJ212 car from the county.
It's not old, but it still makes Li Long's eyes gleam - this thing is easier to use than a tractor, and he doesn't know when he can get one.
It is still not easy to buy a car privately right now, even a second-hand car.
All we can do is wait. Maybe after a while, I can easily buy a car based on my status. It is unlikely that I will own it privately. It would be good to be affiliated with a supply and marketing cooperative.
Ma Xiaoyan got out of the car, smiled and told Li Long about the leader's instructions. Li Long naturally had no objection, and then drove the tractor forward.
The road conditions in the county town and National Highway 312 were good, so Li Long directly told the car driver where he wanted to go and asked him to go first.
After all, cars are much faster than tractors. If you have to follow them all the time, you may scare the driver to death.
After all, when I was driving a car in my last life, if I encountered a newbie pushing the car in front of me, I would be so anxious that I would run away. Although I could understand it, I would definitely not be willing to follow him. If you can overtake, just overtake; if you can't, just blow the horn.
Food is fine, just go to the driving lane and don't slow down in the passing lane and affect others.
The driver of 212, whose surname was Liu, was Liu Jun. He was very happy to hear Li Long’s words. He waved his hands and waved his tail like a dragon. He circled around the courtyard of the supply and marketing cooperative and then rushed out. .
Li Xiangqian who followed him scolded him as a bastard. This guy is definitely a novice. How dare a veteran drive like this in the yard of the supply and marketing cooperative?
Well, it’s quite new. He looks about 27 or 28 years old, wearing a green military uniform without a collar. Was he a retired volunteer from the army?
Li Long went to talk to Director Wei, said goodbye to Li Qianqian, and then left.
The tractor was driving on the Wuyi Highway, and there was no sign of 212 in front of it. It should have turned onto the road to Qingshui River long ago.
So I was very envious. I felt that the tractor I was sitting on was really stupid, big, black and thick. It couldn’t be said to be big. A 15-horsepower tractor was really not that big. The big horse-drawn wheeled tractors of later generations were called big ones. They pulled the turning plow and plowed the ground faster than my own small four-wheeled tractor could run on flat ground.
When Li Long drove the tractor to the mountain pass, 212 was parked on the side of the road. The driver Liu Jun was sitting on a stone on the side of the road smoking. Ma Xiaoyan and Ye Laya were looking for something in the grass not far away. Li Long guessed that he was picking up mushrooms.
It’s not easy for people in the county to eat wild mushrooms these days. They don’t have the opportunity to pick them up, and there are few sold in the market.
Ma Xiaoyan and the others waited for Li Long for a long time, wandering around if nothing happened, not daring to run far away. The scenery here is actually pretty good. Yelaya doesn't catch a cold, which is common after all, but Ma Xiaoyan is still very happy. She feels that looking at the scenery has broadened her mind a lot.
Then I saw wild mushrooms and I was overjoyed. Yelaya doesn't eat mushrooms, but that doesn't stop her from helping Ma Xiaoyan pick them up.
Watching Li Long's tractor coming, Ma Xiaoyan walked around for a while before walking back. She carried a lot of mushrooms in her scarf, weighing more than two kilograms.
"It's rewarding." Li Long said with a smile, "When I finish my work after entering the mountains, I will take you to places with many mushrooms. I can pick up a bucket."
"Really? "That's great!" Ma Xiaoyan was very happy.
This time the tractor is in front and the 212 is in the back.
Li Long drove the tractor directly to Harimu's winter nest. His idea was to use the remaining time in the afternoon to talk about and demonstrate the grass cutting.
Ma Xiaoyan may also want to interview Harimu and the others. It is best to finish it before dark, and then they can go back and work normally here.
There are actually people in front of Harimu’s winter nest. Talihar and another young man were handling a roe deer deer.
Halimu and Yushanjiang went to the holding point of the animal husbandry team, while most of the other herdsmen went back to their winter nests to rest. Anyway, Li Long was cutting grass with a harvester, so he didn't need to do it anymore, so they took a rest.
Talihar himself also wanted to rest, but he got so many wild goats yesterday, and Bai Shanbai, who had a good relationship with him, insisted on taking him to hunt with him to see if he could catch anything.
The two of them went for a walk in the mountains together this morning. There were no traces of prey where Talihar hunted wild goats. They went further into the mountains and found two roe deer in a stream. These two The boys shot them down together.
This is where we are peeling right now. In fact, they can handle it in their winter nest, but the young man is still a little vain. He knows that Harry Mu Yushanjiang will come back today, and Li Long will come back too.
Handle it here. When they come back, they will have to praise it no matter what they say.
It’s not just vanity and shallowness, people always crave the approval of others, especially those who are more capable than themselves.
While peeling the skin, they were quite happy to hear the sound of the tractor. The sound of the tractor meant that Li Long was back. But when they saw 212 coming together, the two young men were a little confused.
No matter how stupid they are, they can still see that this 212 is more advanced than the tractor. The person sitting in this car must be more powerful, right?
So Talihar and Bai Shanbai stood up, holding knives and not knowing where to put them. It's not that I'm nervous, it's mainly that I haven't been through it before and don't know how to deal with it.
Li Long parked the tractor and introduced to Ma Xiaoyan who came down:
"Manager Ma, these two are Talihar and Bai Shanbai, they are my herdsmen friends. Taliha "Here, this is Director Ma, a cadre from the county, here to interview us about cutting grass."
He said it vaguely, mainly because he wanted to boast about himself.
Talihar understands Chinese, Bai Shanbai does not, and Yelaya translates.
Originally, Li Long said that county cadres came to interview about grass cutting. Talihar didn’t think anything about it, but Yelaya said it in more detail in Kazakhstan, and then the young man said I'm a little at a loss. Li Long seriously suspected that Yelaya must have added information to the translation of the two young men, otherwise it would not be like this.
"Did you hunt in the mountains?" Ma Xiaoyan asked curiously, looking at the two half-processed roe deer.
"Yes." Talihar said more honestly, "We were hunting in the mountains just now. We came down to clear grass and had little food to eat. In addition, Li Long beat us fast and we didn't need it. Money, we just want to find something, peel off the skin and give it to him, thank him!”
Ma Xiaoyan hurriedly wrote it down. This was a good interaction. Li Long helped the herdsmen in the mountains. The herdsmen also had feelings and righteousness, so it was good to have interaction.
What Zhang Xinhua wrote probably recorded the causes and consequences of Li Long's friendship with the herdsmen, focusing on the time when Li Long went to build houses and dig wells for the Halimu and Yushanjiang families.
The main purpose is to help.
It’s different now. Ma Xiaoyan also wants to write a different idea. Now she has the material. This is mutual. Li Long helped the herdsmen, and the herdsmen thanked Li Long for sending the leather. This is Very good.
So she put Li Long aside and let Talihar and Bai Shanbai answer her questions while skinning.
During the interview, I took photos from time to time to use as material.
Li Long came over to help. Liu Jun had nothing to do, so he just walked around nearby.
The troops retired and liked hunting. This time they came without a gun, but he saw that there was a gun in Li Long's tractor, and it was a standard 56 semi-automatic.
He was thinking about how to borrow it.
Ma Xiaoyan interviewed a lot of content, but felt it was not enough. The two young men were very honest and told them what they asked, including tea, sugar cubes, salt, and later food and radios that Li Long brought them.
Bai Shanbai returned it to Yelaya and told them that Li Long would send them bullets. With the bullets, they can kill wolves and eliminate the threat to cattle and sheep.
Ma Xiaoyan knew that she was right to come back and recorded these things in detail. Many people now know that Li Long was a model of national unity and that Li Long built houses and dug wells for people, but the more detailed details are not clear.
What I have now is first-hand information, right? Li Long gave radios to herders to let them know about national events and the party's good policies. This alone was enough to serve as a real role model.
Herders came back one after another, and more and more people were interviewed by Ma Xiaoyan. Only then did Talihar and Bai Shanbai have time to continue peeling roe deer seeds.
In the meantime, Li Long kept explaining and asked Ma Xiaoyan to rush aside.
He made it clear that the radio was not given as a gift, but in exchange for things from the herdsmen. Don't listen to what they said. They gave him skins, antlers and other things in exchange for real things.
Those food supplies, including rubber shoes, were also exchanged. I didn’t send them, because I wasn’t that noble.
Of course Ma Xiaoyan didn’t listen. She listened to the herdsmen.
Moreover, the model writers of this era really like to shape people in a high-level way, making them feel like saints.
This is how Li Long described by the herdsmen looks like to Ma Xiaoyan.
What a great role model, he doesn’t even need his own artistic processing, he meets the requirements in every aspect!
Only Li Long was sulking.
Is it easy to be a role model?
Good job.
With an exemplary signboard, it will be very convenient to do things, and all units will be open to convenience.
But there are many bad things about being a model. Since you are a model, don’t you have to be more selfless? Others will also have higher requirements for you, and there should be no stains on you.
Li Long is not afraid of stains or anything like that, and he has no plans to have a harem with one wife and two concubines. Nowadays, the country encourages people to get rich through economic development, and it is legal for him to make money. But people don’t like to be put under a magnifying glass for everyone to watch.
The mood of Qiu Fu is always there. Pinkeye has never been cured since ancient times, so he doesn't want to be the leader, even though he is already one.
But it can’t be the longest one.
It's a pity that Ma Xiaoyan ignored it, she still liked this high tone. The more the herdsmen praised Li Long, the happier she recorded it.
Li Long couldn't stand listening anymore. He saw that it was getting late, so he interrupted the interview:
"Director Ma, it's getting late. Let's take photos of the grass? You should do the same after taking the photos." I went back to the county.”
Ma Xiaoyan’s interview was lively and she memorized a lot of material, but she felt it was not enough, so she rejected Li Long’s proposal:
< b r> "Halimu and Yushanjiang haven't come back, so the interview can't stop. I'm collecting materials here. Don't worry. I told the leader that it was two days. At worst, we will stay in the mountains for one night tonight and tomorrow You can also cut grass.”
“Staying for one night, the conditions in the mountains are very difficult,” Li Long was shocked. Two girls staying in the mountains for one night? Isn't this a joke?
Li Longtou had a big head, but Ma Xiaoyan didn't feel anything was wrong. As an officer of the propaganda department, I often go to villages for interviews and missionary work. It is normal to live in the countryside.
Right now, the countryside has just turned into the mountains. Seeing Li Long’s expression of embarrassment, she asked:
“Comrade Li Long, where do you live?”
“Herder friends built me a wooden house.”
“Oh, you said it last time, I know this. How many rooms does that wooden house have?”
"Two..."
"Isn't that good? You and Master Liu share a room, and Xiaoye and I share a room. Are there beddings?"
"Yes, but there are no new ones... ..."
"What do you want new? "Ma Xiaoyan didn't have any bureaucracy or pretentiousness at this time, "As long as it's useful. We're here to work, not to enjoy!"
After solving the problem in a few words, Ma Xiaoyan continued to interview the herdsmen.
When the sun was about to set, Harimu and Yushanjiang came back, and the two roe deer seeds were almost cooked.
Because there were cadres from the county, the two roe deer roe deer were not trimmed and were directly broken into pieces and cooked. No offal or anything was wasted. Who knows if the county leaders will eat it?
Halimu and Yushanjiang were very excited when they found out that people from the county were coming. They were even more excited when they found out that they were here specifically to interview and Li Long was doing something for them.
They returned to their homes during the day, living in a newly built house, drinking sweet well water, and eating fresh vegetables.
How wonderful!
Originally they planned to talk to the herdsmen brothers, but now that reporters came, they couldn't help but say everything on their mind.
Li Long blushed - I paid for everything, so I didn't do it in vain!
Including this time, Li Long really wanted to do it for nothing, but everyone gave so much money, which exceeded the fare and gas.
This is not my true intention.
Li Long was embarrassed to listen, so he simply sat far away with a stick of roe deer legs, gnawing and chatting with Liu Jun.
Ma Xiaoyan was handed a piece of Jiangbian meat, and Yelaya was given a piece of neck meat. Harimu told them not to be polite and just eat it.
Two roe deer deer weigh nearly one hundred kilograms each. It can't be cooked in a big pot, and with the addition of offal, it's enough for several meals.
Although it was just sprinkled with a handful of salt, it tasted very good. Ma Xiaoyan did not expect that the food in the mountains was so good. She asked while eating:
"Do you often eat like this? In this life The level is really good, almost reaching the level of a well-off society.”
Although Harimu didn’t know what a well-off level was, he knew it was definitely a good word. He shook his head and said:
"How is that possible? We usually eat only dry naan and water. In previous years, the task of cutting grass was very heavy. We used samarium sickles to cut grass manually. There was no time for hunting, and we basically couldn't eat meat. This year, Li Long came over. With the harvester, we have time to hunt and improve."
So that's it, it's still Li Long after going around.
Ma Xiaoyan finally understood that, as Li Long himself said, no matter how he explained it, his actions had truly changed the lives of the herdsmen, or in other words, improved their living standards.
Just pointing to this point is enough for me to promote this model in a large space. (End of this chapter)
