When Wu Dagang announced that the autumn harvest was over, strong cheers erupted in the grain drying field.
The villagers were all beaming with joy.
They have worked hard for so long, isn’t it just for today?
“After the food is stored in the warehouse, we will hand it over and notify everyone when it is delivered.”
“Now everyone can go back and have a good rest. Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, everyone. We must be reunited!”
Wu Dagang smiled and talked to the members.
"Ziwen, are you going out?"
After the meeting, Zhou Ziwen was about to go to the county town to buy meat, but Wu Dagang came over.
“Yes!”
Zhou Ziwen pushed the bicycle and looked like he was going out.
"Okay, then go ahead and do your work! Come see me when you come back, and I'll tell you something."
Wu Dagang waved his hand.
"What's going on?" Zhou Ziwen asked curiously.
"It's a good thing. We'll talk about it when you come back."
Wu Dagang smiled and was obviously in a very good mood.
"Oh?"
Zhou Ziwen looked at Wu Dagang's happy look and had some guesses in his mind.
It is indeed a good thing to make Wu Dagang so happy.
Thinking of the village monument he helped Wu Dagang build during the autumn harvest, Zhou Ziwen guessed what it was about.
After saying hello to the two sisters, Zhou Ziwen rode his bicycle to the county seat.
Zhou Ziwen rode his bicycle and set foot on the newly built road.
This spacious and flat road makes riding more enjoyable than the previous country roads.
The new highway not only shortens the time to the county seat, but also brings real convenience to the villagers.
The autumn sunshine shone on his body, bringing a touch of warmth. Zhou Ziwen was in a happy mood, and the pedals under his feet became much lighter.
On both sides of the new highway are endless fields. The autumn harvest of grain has been completed in the fields, and they look even more empty.
"After the road is repaired, it will be more convenient to go to the county seat." Zhou Ziwen sighed in his heart, and a smile appeared on his face unconsciously.
The newly built road is very smooth, and riding a bicycle feels like flying.
Zhou Ziwen didn't use much force, but his speed was much faster than before.
Flying all the way, by the time he arrived at the county seat, only about twenty minutes had passed.
After arriving in the county seat, Zhou Ziwen went straight to the food station.
After being delayed for a while due to a meeting, he arrived not too early, but not too late. There were still a few pieces of pork belly that had not been sold at the butcher stall.
Pork belly is not as good as fatty meat in this era.
Everyone is short of oil and water, and pork belly does not have as much oil and water as fat.
But for Zhou Ziwen, pork belly is just right.
He likes to eat this kind of meat that is not too fat but is a little oily.
"Comrade, help me weigh this piece of pork belly."
Zhou Ziwen specially picked a larger piece.
He is going to make some meat-filled mooncakes. If he buys more, he can also fry twice-cooked pork.
Both he and the Chen sisters like to eat.
After buying the meat, Zhou Ziwen was ready to go back.
Originally, he was planning to go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy a few bottles of soda.
But he found it troublesome to think of buying soda and having to return the bottle.
Fortunately, there is also a supply and marketing cooperative in the village. If you want to drink soda, you can just go to the supply and marketing cooperative in the village to buy it.
On the way back to the village, Zhou Ziwen went straight to the village supply and marketing cooperative.
"Big Mouth, let me buy some bottles of soda."
As soon as he entered the house, Zhou Ziwen woke up Li Dazui who was dozing off.
"Hey, Zhou Zhiqing is here! How many bottles do you want?" Li Dazui was startled, and his head almost hit the counter, but when he looked up and saw Zhou Ziwen, a smile appeared on his face again.
"Six bottles! There are many people at home."
Zhou Ziwen thought for a moment.
Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, and Shen Zhaodi and Zhou Chaoyang will definitely come over to join in the fun.
He just thought, he might as well buy more.
“Okay!”
Li Dazui agreed and hurriedly got him a soda.
After buying soda, Zhou Ziwen pushed his bicycle back home.
It was still early, and the two sisters were still at work. After returning home, Zhou Ziwen put away the things he bought, and then went to find Wu Dagang to learn about the good things he said.
When he came to the production team, Wu Dagang was watching everyone drying the grain.
"Uncle Wu, I'm back. You said something good happened before, what was it?" Zhou Ziwen came over and asked.
Wu Dagang looked at Zhou Ziwen and said with a smile: "Ziwen, you designed the village monument. Lao Chen has already finished it. Let's go, I will take you to see it."
Zhou Ziwen was delighted after hearing this: "Oh? It's done so quickly?"
Wu Dagang nodded and said: "Yes, you are not convinced about Lao Chen's craftsmanship? Let's go and have a look."
With that said, Wu Dagang took Zhou Ziwen to Master Chen's house.
Yes, since the stone tablet was excavated, Master Chen has arranged for people to move it back home.
Because in the entire Dabazi Village, he is the only one with the best craftsmanship, and only he can carve stone tablets.
During this time, everyone was busy with the autumn harvest, and he was carving monuments at home.
As soon as they entered the courtyard, they saw Master Chen polishing the stone tablet with sanding sand.
With such a focused look, he didn't even see Zhou Ziwen and Wu Dagang come in.
Walking into the courtyard, Zhou Ziwen’s eyes focused on the village monument.
On the top of the village monument, there are several large characters "Dabazi Village" in strong and powerful fonts. You can tell at a glance that you have good calligraphy skills.
Seeing the familiar font, Zhou Ziwen nodded with satisfaction.
Yes, the words above are from his arm.
"Ziwen, your design is really good. Old Chen also said that this is the best village monument he has ever carved." Wu Dagang said with a smile.
Zhou Ziwen smiled modestly: "Uncle Wu, I just came up with an idea."
"Haha, no matter what, you have contributed a lot to this." Wu Dagang took the photo He patted Zhou Ziwen on the shoulder.
“Ziwen, Lao Wu, are you here?”
After hearing their conversation, Master Chen, who was polishing the stone tablet, also raised his head.
“Master.”
Zhou Ziwen said hello hurriedly.
Master Chen put down the tools in his hands and said with a smile: "Come and see, how are the stone inscriptions in this village?"
Zhou Ziwen and Wu Dagang stepped forward and looked at the village carefully. monument.
Zhou Ziwen praised: "Master, your craftsmanship is really superb. The village monument is so perfect."
Master Chen's craftsmanship is indeed good. According to the skill level, it is at least level five, close to level six.
Zhou Ziwen's craftsmanship is a little worse than him. He is only halfway to level 4 experience, not even level 5.
Wu Dagang nodded and said: "Yes, Old Chen, once this village monument is erected, our village will become more impressive."
Master Chen said with a smile: "It can make As long as you are satisfied. By the way, Ziwen, your writing is very good and impressive.”
Zhou Ziwen said with some embarrassment: "I just write casually, as long as it catches your eye."
Speaking of which, he really hasn't practiced this calligraphy much.
But because of his boxing training, his control ability is very strong, and he can reproduce exactly what he wants.
As for most people, what they think and what they write are completely different things.
Wu Dagang asked: "Old Chen, has the village monument been completed? Can the monument be erected?"
He was very satisfied with the monument and couldn't wait to erect it. (End of this chapter)
