After Zipeng finished speaking, he took his hand from Lixia's embrace and pushed open the door.

Outside, heavy snow was still falling non-stop. The northwest wind roared as it tore at people's faces. There was already a foot of snow on the ground.

Zi Peng pushed his bicycle as he walked home with great difficulty, step by step. By the time he got home, it was already past seven o'clock. Just then, Cheng Hua took out a broom and started to clean the snow on his father's body. Mother complained:

"Zi Peng, why did you just return?" I thought the sky wasn't good, but you're not coming back? We've already eaten. Hua Zi, help your dad pack up and eat. "

His daughter Cheng Hua was carrying food for his father. Zi Peng was indeed hungry now. Because today's journey was not easy, it had consumed a lot of his energy. So he was tired and hungry.

Zi Peng heated his hands with hot water, returned to the dining table, and began to eat with relish. Indeed, although he felt that the food was not considered hot, as it was only common, he ate with relish and relish …

After sending Zi Peng back into the house, she felt that the snow tonight was especially heavy, and the wind was blowing fiercely as well. This is the first big snow this winter. She shook off the snow and remembered that she hadn't eaten yet. Just now, she was too concentrated on speaking with Zi Peng, so she couldn't recall even if she didn't eat. But after he left, he felt a little hungry. She did not bring the food to the table, but ate it alone in the kitchen. Before they could finish their meal, Gui Hong and Xiao Wei returned. When Lixia saw that the father and son had returned, she hurriedly picked up a broom and swept away the snow on their bodies. Gui Hong asked:

"What took you so long?"

"Just now, second brother Zipeng came over to deliver my letter and said a few words. After I saw him off, I ate. He thought you could be at home and he wanted to play chess with you, but you weren't at home. " Lisa said as she ate.

"Why is it snowing so heavily? I even sent you a book. It must have been really hard for him." Gui Hong lamented.

"He said that he had just arrived at the library today. I was afraid that he would miss my time by reading a book and send it over to me." she said as she washed the dishes.

After dinner, Lia Xia went to bed on the brick bed. She lay on the kang, tossing and turning, unable to sleep. Zipeng talked with her tonight, shook her hand, and hugged her. As if she was acting in a movie, the scenes that happened before her eyes were clearly displayed in her mind: Zi Peng's arrival today was something she had never expected. She had not expected that such a heavy snowfall would come to deliver books to her. She was happy, she was surprised, she was surprised. Especially when Zi Peng held her hand, she felt both sudden and excited. Suddenly: she was unprepared; excited: he had finally shaken her hand. This clearly showed that he already liked her. This made her extremely excited from the bottom of her heart. As he walked away, she took his hand again, then hugged it again, which made her feel incredibly happy and excited … That was what she thought, thinking, until midnight, when she finally fell asleep.

Today, Zi Peng had been pushing his bicycle through the thick snow for ten miles. He felt very tired, and wanted to finish his meal and have a good sleep to recover his strength. When he finished his meal and laid down on the kang, he couldn't fall asleep no matter what. He thought about everything that had happened tonight at Liza's house. He didn't think that he would be so calm, so bold, so natural, and so unrestrained when he was holding her hand. He felt that he had grasped this opportunity very well. He had grasped it very appropriately. Her reaction to his handshake was strong, excited, and passionate. When he said he was going home, she took his hand and hugged it. He thought: This is the sublimation of feeling, this is the transcendence of passion, this is the beginning of love. For the first time in ten months, he shook her hand and hugged her for the first time. Thinking of this, he felt a sweet sensation in his heart …

Time seemed to flow like flowing water, and the sun and moon seemed to move back and forth. Time passed really quickly. In the blink of an eye, it was New Year's Day 1988. During New Year's Day, Taoyuan Village had a break of three days, allowing the exhausted Village cadres to have a good rest.

On the 4th of January, Secretary of the Party Branch of Taoyuan Village Wang Zipeng and Village Head Deng Chunming participated in the 3-year planning meeting for the implementation of the research held in Rural Government. The meeting was divided into three main items.

Item 1: Development and protection areas shall be no less than 50 mu per year; increase the area of water irrigation, 60 of the vegetable fields shall be taken up within 3 years, and the area of water control shall reach 75 mu.

The second: a variety of businesses, mainly ginseng grapes, catch the typical large households, each village catch 1-2, within 2-3 years to reach 20, above the annual income of more than 3000 yuan.

The third item: Rural enterprises, every village must have at least one project in 88 years; individual households must have at least six households in 2 — 3 years.

Although these three tasks are not much, these indicators are all hard indicators. Zi Peng and Chun Ming returned to the village after their meeting. He had originally wanted to hold a meeting with the Sessions the next day to pass on the spirit of the meeting, but then he received another notification from the District Committee: The spirit of the Thirteen Great Leaders meeting which was held by the District Committee on January 5th.

On January 5th, Wang Zipeng arrived at the District Committee Party School at 7: 30 in the morning. At the meeting, the Wang Jianzhu Secretary of the District Committee communicated the spirit of the 'Thirteen Great Leaders' conference that was held by the Central Committee of the Chinese People's Congress.

Secretary Wang was over 30 years old, with a height of 1.8 meters. His handsome face gave off a youthful vigor; his demeanor was graceful, his speech humorous, and with a glance, one could tell that he was a capable and courageous leader.

The paper pointed out that the theory of the primary stage of socialism was clearly established by the "Thirteenth Third Party". This paper expounds the characteristics of the primary stage of socialism and also clarifies the main contradiction and central task of the primary stage of socialism, which is mainly to construct socialism with Chinese characteristics.

"Thirteen" studies from January 5th to 8th. During the study period, there was a District Committee Minister of Propaganda, Gong Zongping, who taught. Through four days of study, the ideological awareness has been enhanced, and the route, policy and policy of the primary stage of socialism have been defined...

In order to implement the spirit of the meeting of the Taoyuan Village on December 24th last year on the construction of a 'silicon iron factory', on the morning of January 29th, 88, we formally discussed the smelting of silicon iron with the district economic committee. The two experts from the Regional Academy, Ma Zhibai and Chen Yulong, participated in the negotiations.

Ma Zhibai, in his forties, wore a pair of glasses. He was gentle and refined.

Also participating in this discussion were: Village Head Ji Guangcai, deputy mayor Wang Chengzhi, Branch Secretary Wang Peng, Village Head Deng Chunming, and Vice Village Chief Wang. The conference was held in the conference room of Taoyuan Village, who poured a cup of tea for each of them. During the negotiation, the regional economic committee Ma Zhibai introduced the equipment, plant, electricity, transformers and so on that were needed to refine the silicon and iron smelting. He lit a cigarette and took a deep breath. He said:

"To build a small silicon-iron smelter, you need a thousand-volt transformer, the price is about 4.5 thousand yuan, you have goods in Changchun; a winch; a workshop, 120 square meters; and a total investment of about 1 million yuan. From the technical analysis: 3 tons per day production capacity, 1 ton finished product needs 2 tons of silica, electricity consumption 900 degrees; 35 manpower, 3 shifts; 10 as a proportion of tax, 3 as for miscellaneous expenses; 2.5 to 4,000 yuan per ton product, with an annual production value of 2.25 million yuan. Economic benefits are calculated on the basis of 900 tons of production per annum at a profit of between 80 and 900 thousand yuan; factory construction time is between 4 and 6 months. " After Ma Zhibai finished his introduction, he added.

After the Chihuahua heard the two experts' introductions, he felt very interested in setting up such a factory. He took a sip of his tea and cleared his throat. He said:

"After listening to the two experts' introduction just now, I have a general understanding of the production of ferrosilicon. As for transformers, rollers can be ordered directly. The Taoyuan Village has the ability to handle this project. Firstly, there is a place in Taoyuan Village with red bricks. Secondly, the north of the Taoyuan Village is a mountain formed by silica, and the raw materials do not need to be bought from outside. Thirdly, the Taoyuan Village and the Taoyuan Village are close neighbors.

Countryside Wong took a deep breath and blew out a white smoke ring the size of an egg. As the smoke ring grew larger, it gradually turned into a blurry smoke ring. He continued with the conversation in the Chihuahua.

"To run a silicon iron factory, the Taoyuan Village's conditions are unique. Right now, we are in the process of negotiating, and we will ask the experts to prove it the next step. After proof, if the economic benefits are good, I agree to the project in Taoyuan Village. However, when the time comes, we will need the help of a few engineers in the area of smelting silicon iron, and we will also need the help of Director Ma and Director Chen. " Ma Zhibai took over Countryside Wong's words and said:

"No problem. Engineers in this area, we can help contact them."

After the Branch Secretary Wang Peng finished listening to them speak, he swept his eyes across everyone and said:

"After listening to the two experts' presentations just now, I was also very interested in this project. Our Village Head Deng had once proposed to build such a factory at the last branch committee. At that time, we didn't know much about this matter, and we didn't know where to start. Now that we hear it, we are truly enlightened. The silica on our mountain are very high in content, and our taste is also very good, can be said to be rich in resources. The raw materials were his own. At the very least, he would be able to save the cost of raw materials and freight. I agree with Village Head Deng's suggestion to build a silicon iron factory, and also agree with the thoughts of the two village heads just now. "

Chunming was particularly interested in the project. He took a deep drag on his Red Plum. He went on to say:

"All these problems are easy to solve, the key is to be able to do a good job. The result of the meeting is directly related to the success or failure of the factory. If the result is good, the benefit is good and the bank can support it. If the result is bad, the bank will not lend. Therefore, it is also crucial that the two leaders of the Commission find more experts in this field and obtain reliable evidence from them before they begin their discussion. "

"We will definitely be able to help, because are we all family?" Ma Zhibai said humorlessly.

"I know a few experts and engineers who not only have diplomas, but also graduate majors. After graduation, I helped to build many factories in Jilin and other places, and the benefits were very substantial. " Chen Yulong said sincerely.

The negotiations went smoothly and in harmony. Whether it was the leaders of the regional economic commissions, the Rural Government, or the Taoyuan Village, all of them had reached a consensus on this project.

Seeing that the negotiations were proceeding smoothly, the Chihuahua said:

"Then I'll have to trouble the two of you to come here today. If you need them in the future, I'll have to trouble you two. I think it's already noon. Let's have a quick meal together. First, to drink to our first acquaintance; and secondly, to communicate our feelings. The Taoyuan Village has already decided to stay in the Power plant hotel for the meal. "

The two of them refused, and followed Zi Peng and the others to Power plant hotel, where they would eat a meal that was the prelude to the construction of the metal factory …
