Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    After the family got on the boat, they received breakfast in the cabin - two large steamed buns per person and a bamboo tube of millet porridge.  The child only had one steamed bun, but an extra boiled egg.

    And the hot steamed buns are actually stuffed with soy sauce and meat!

    The family held the meat buns in their hands and couldn't stop crying.  They couldn't remember the last time they had such a luxurious meal?

    "It's delicious. It's delicious." The children were not afraid of burning it and ate it with big mouthfuls.

    The adults couldn¡¯t bear to get off their horses and put the two steamed buns in their arms Although they have been in Suzhou for several years, they are still used to calling these stuffed steamed buns steamed buns.

    The family followed the flow of people to the cabin below the deck and found a place to sit down.

    After a while, Chi Dacong and the neighbors also got on the boat, and they naturally received the same breakfast.

    Chi Dacong took a bite of the steamed bun and asked Wang Liudao arrogantly: "What else can you say now?"

    "" Wang Liu stuffed his mouth full of fragrant steamed buns and muttered something vaguely.  It seems to be something like 'starving to death is a small matter, being unruly is a big matter' I heard it from the storyteller. In fact, Wang Liu didn't quite understand what it meant.

    But seeing that the whole family had been completely conquered by the two meat buns, Wang Liu couldn't stand up any more.  He didn't say a word, just lowered his head and savored the unique taste of the mixture of wheat aroma and meat aroma in his mouth.

    When the deck was full of people, the sailors rocked the oars and slowly sailed the sand boat, which was full of farmers and workers, away from Xushuguan.

    The boat sailed to Suzhou, turned around the Loujiang River along the moat, and went eastward along the river.

    When the sun set to the west, the ship arrived at Kunshan County.

    The steward on board the ship asked the farmers and workers to take out their bamboo signs and start shouting loudly.

    "When the number is called, the whole family comes to my place. One-three-one-four, one-three-one-four!"

    Many farm workers don¡¯t know how to count, so they have to look at the signs one by one before pointing at the family and saying, ¡°This is your family. Remember, 1314 is your lifelong code on the farm!¡±

    The family members stood up obediently and followed the steward onto the deck.  After a while, the steward handed the family over to the people who came to pick them up from the shore, and the boat continued to move forward.

    When we arrived at the next small pier, the steward asked the family to get down again.  Sand boats shuttled among the criss-crossing rivers, constantly docking and letting people out.

    When about half of the people got out, the steward started shouting again: "Nine-five-two-seven, where is nine-five-two-seven?"

    "I am ninety-five-two-seven!" Wang Liu quickly raised his hand. He was working on the dock and didn't know how to count.

    The family quickly picked up their luggage and walked towards the hatch.

    Seeing this, Chi Dacong asked the steward anxiously: "Don't we have the same farm?"

    "I don't know." The steward said with an indifferent expression: "You are not allowed to get up until your number is called!"

    "We agreed to be together." Chi Dacong didn't dare to raise his butt, but he kept saying: "It's good to have someone to take care of you."

    "If you keep talking nonsense, there's no need to get off the ship. We'll just take you back to Suzhou." The people in charge are all veterans, so you can't cure him as a country bumpkin?

    The family got on the deck obediently and couldn't help but be stunned when they saw the desolate scene in front of them.  Unless you have seen it with your own eyes, it is hard to believe that there are such empty and desolate places in Jiangnan.

    Wang Qi said timidly: "It would be nice if we didn't separate everyone."

    "I think it's best to separate." Wang Liu felt great. He felt that God was helping him.

    "They deliberately separated us old couple." Old man Wang is more knowledgeable than his son, but he has no dissatisfaction.  "There is no one in the world who is smarter than these water crabs."

    At this time, the boat stopped next to a simple wooden trestle, and the steward urged the family to get off quickly.

    Fortunately, there is someone waiting to greet you at the pier, so you don¡¯t have to worry about where to go.

    ??~~

    A yellow-faced man wearing a black silk corrugated hat and a blue straight jacket, dressed like the stewards, looked at the number plate in Wang Liu's hand and said to the family:

    "I am Miao Pu, technician of Liujiu Farm. From now on, you will call me Miao Gong. On the order of our farm director, I will take you back to the team." The technician named Miao Pu pointed at the crowd behind him with his chin and said: "  There are still people who haven¡¯t arrived yet, so please go over there and wait.¡±

    Wang Liu then led his family to wait in the crowd.  He glanced around and saw that there were about a hundred people in this group, with fifteen or sixteen households.

    Listening to them speaking in dialects with southern and northern accents, it turned out that they were separated and put together.

    When they first came to a strange environment, the migrant workers were cautious and did not talk to other family members. They just gathered at the dock and waited.Seedling workers next order.

    Using this time, the Miao workers registered them again, this time in much more detail than at Xushuguan.  Miao Pu asked them to answer truthfully about the names, genders, ages, places of origin of everyone in the family, when they came to Suzhou, whether they had committed adultery, whether they had any physical injuries, etc.  He also warned them that if they were later found to be false, their work points would be deducted, or they would be fired directly.

    Old man Wang originally planned to hide his waist injury, but after hearing this, he honestly confessed.  Although he didn't know what work points were, he could still understand his dismissal.

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Cantonese workers could only wait until the sun was about to set and a dozen more families arrived, then the Miao workers closed the book and put the lead chisels into their pockets.  Let two farm workers carry their tables and chairs and lead them along a newly opened dirt road towards a village in the north.

    "Our place is called Yanglintang, which is the lowest in the entire Kunshan." Miao Pu loudly introduced to the farmers as he walked: "In previous years, during the rainy season, this place became a puddle, and the water would not recede until autumn. So.  There has been no place for people to live in, and no way to farm.¡±

    "Fortunately, our son invented cement, established Kunkaisi, and built stone embankments on Yangcheng Lake and Yanglintang. Now the 100,000 acres of fertile land in Yanglintang no longer have to worry about being flooded, and you can go about your business.  "

    ¡°As he spoke, he pointed out to everyone the location of their team¡¯s land In one afternoon, everyone already understood that there were six production teams under their farm.  A production team lives in a village, and the land they want to farm is also around the village.

    "You are lucky. The original houses in this village have been completely destroyed. They were built by the farm for you." As he spoke, the Miao technician took them into the village and hung their bamboo signs one by one.  On every door.

    Wang Liu saw that bamboo signs had been hung up in many yards before, so someone had obviously arrived first.  I can't help but secretly worry, aren't all the good houses picked up?  What should I do if I have no place to live?

    Although this small village is full of adobe thatched houses, they all have doors and windows, and there are independent courtyards separated by bamboo fences.  In the eyes of Wang Liu and his family, it was a hundred times better than their own shack.

    And his worries are unnecessary.  Kunkaisi has long been familiar with large-scale deployment of personnel and materials, how could he make such a stupid mistake?

    In the end, the Miao workers hung the bamboo sign numbering 9527 on a door in the middle of the village, quite close to the main road, which made the whole family overjoyed.

    "There is rice, water and firewood in the house. You can take care of dinner by yourself." Miao Pu mechanically repeated the instructions: "Think carefully tonight. It's not too late to leave. The field director will come to press your fingerprints early tomorrow morning. Press  If you want to leave after taking the fingerprint, you will have to pay money. If you can't afford the compensation, you will be sent to the official prison, but you must think clearly"
