Chapter 815 The Snowy Long March
The corner of Lu Yu's mouth twitched fiercely, and he waved his hands and said, "Okay, okay, you are not old, are you not old at all? Old chiefs, hurry up and accept it!"
"Hmph! That's the right way to say it!"
Several old men looked at each other before putting away their magical powers.
Lu Yu wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and let out a long sigh of relief.
If they go on like this, my little heart won't be able to bear it!
thump thump.
At this time, another figure ran out of the forest panting.
After seeing Lu Yu, he was overjoyed and rushed over: "Master, are you finally here? I also want to accompany the four old chiefs, but they don't allow me to follow, so I can only call you to come... ..."
"What did you tell me to follow? Wouldn't you be exposed if you followed us?"
Zhou Zixu glared fiercely at Fan Tianlei, who had no choice but to look at Lu Yu for help.
Lu Yu asked suspiciously: "Didn't you travel around to enjoy life? Why did you come to my place?"
Zhou Zixu coughed slightly and said, "Actually, let me correct you. The few of us are doing private interviews on Weibo, understand?!"
Forehead……
Lu Yu smiled wryly.
Seeing the serious expressions of the old men, the corners of his mouth twitched a few times, but he didn't say anything in the end.
It happened to be noon, and Lu Yu immediately asked the cafeteria to arrange sumptuous meals to entertain the old chiefs.
Now that he is on his own territory, he will of course do his best to be a landlord.
Lu Yu soon discovered that several old chiefs were wearing Jiefang brand military shoes, which were covered with mud.
Obviously, they came here after jumping over a long muddy mountain road.
The four of them were a little short of breath when they were exercising just now, and they felt as if they were exhausted.
With their current physical condition, Lu Yu cured their diseases, it seems that this phenomenon should not have happened.
Judging from the current situation, it should be caused by their overwork during this period of time, and their old bodies couldn't take it anymore.
Lu Yu asked the cooking team to stew chicken soup, and put ginseng, angelica and other Chinese medicinal materials that nourish Qi and blood, to nourish the old chiefs.
At noon, when the food and wine were arranged on the table, Lu Yu personally accompanied the four old men for dinner.
Zhou Zixu drank the wine happily, smashed his mouth and said, "It's been a long time since we had a private visit on Weibo, I haven't had this good wine for a long time! Lu Yu boy, you are still sensible, knowing how many of our elder brothers there are is enough for this drink. "
Next to him, Zhang Shan laughed and said, "How much does Xiao Lu know about us? It's no different from our family! He's much more sensible than those brats in our family."
Fang Bin raised his glass and laughed loudly: "Don't talk nonsense! Come on, let's do it together, let's toast Xiao Lu well."
"Dry!"
"Emotions are all in the wine!"
The four old men toasted and drank.
He said to respect Lu Yu, but in the end, he swallowed the wine in one gulp.
Lu Yu smiled wryly, of course he wouldn't bother with the old chiefs.
The people who came out of that era were quite bold in nature, and they were real men.
Unlike today's society, people are too slippery, don't know which sentence is true and which sentence is false!
When dealing with sincere people, Lu Yu will feel much more at ease.
And many of these people are in the army, and it is not tiring for everyone to get along with each other sincerely.
The meal took over an hour.
After drinking and eating, Lu Yu suddenly asked something: "Several old chiefs came to my place, didn't they just stroll over to visit me by the way? What do you mean by this private visit?"
The four old men put down their wine glasses and looked at each other.
In the end, Mr. Zhou Zixu said, "This... ahem! We came to you for a simple purpose, just to borrow some money from you."
What?
Lu Yu choked on a sip of wine and coughed violently.
"Borrow money?"
He said speechlessly: "Aren't you kidding me? With your identities, are you still short of money?"
Zhou Zixu shrugged his shoulders and sighed: "We didn't lie to you, my brothers are really short of money! You can tell by looking at us. Now we can't even pay for the travel expenses. Basically, we are just begging for money and worrying about everywhere. Going to borrow money from people!"
Lu Yu frowned and asked, "What's going on? Don't you all enjoy state subsidies? Where do you need money?"
Hearing this, Zhou Zixu coughed twice in embarrassment: "Since you cured us, the four of us wanted to go back to the Long March! When we were young, we climbed snow-capped mountains, walked across grasslands, and looked around us. Companions fell one by one, and finally survived until peace came."
"Now, we are all old, and people always think about the past when they are old! I haven't been back for decades, so I want to take this opportunity to take another look at the road I walked before."
Zhou Zixu sighed: "I didn't expect that after we went back, we would feel bad! The country is developing so well now, but there are still many poor and backward areas, and the life of those people is still very difficult. Especially the children in the mountains We, even, many backward villages are not connected to electricity!"
For this point, Lu Yu actually understood very well.
Performing tasks in the frontier all the year round, especially in the remote mountainous areas, the equipment and conditions are really backward.
This is what Lu Yu saw with his own eyes, and he wanted to solve this problem in this way at the beginning.
But his personal strength is limited after all, and he also has the will but powerlessness.
Over the past decade or so, the country's economy has indeed taken off rapidly, and it has long since gotten rid of the hat of poverty.
But because of the late start, it is impossible to cover everything in some aspects.
For example, food and clothing in the whole country is only relative to most regions.
There are still many backward mountainous areas in the west. Due to the lack of information, there is still a big gap with other places.
It's not that they don't want to develop, but that the funds allocated every year can only help them survive.
Simply can not afford to accumulate excess money to develop.
People are lazy. Once they receive relief and have a source of food, many people will idle around and not think about making progress.
Who wants to work hard every day when there is state support without working?
Just wait for relief!
People with this kind of thinking will naturally develop poorly in the locality.
But there are many children who are innocent.
The previous generation has not received education, but as long as the flowers of the next generation are cultivated well, they will thrive.
When children's values and outlook on life are changed, they will naturally strive to become stronger, and this backwardness will also undergo a great change.
"When we faced crisis back then, we could only get through it thanks to the relief and help of the local villagers!"
Zhou Zixu recalled: "I still remember that a fellow villager gave us all the only food for their family. They were starving themselves, and they barely survived by eating tree roots and bark."
"Our loess is buried up to our necks, and we can't do much for the country. The only thing we can rely on now is this face!"
Zhou Zixu said with a full face: "Now, we rely on this face to beg in various ways, and then use the money we get back to help these mountainous areas develop. Build schools for them, find teachers, and educate the children well. "
"I believe that one day, mountainous areas will develop!"
