Attention Brigade Cadres...

Here on the border of three districts,

your situation is complicated...

Many farmers have abandoned

the communes to do trading instead...

...which wreaks havoc

on the local markets...

...and sabotages the collective

economy of the People's Communes.

Rice Tofu Queen:
Hu Yuyin

Colluders:
Li Mangeng & Gu Yanshan

For us cadres, how do we

deal with this problem?

Even though Hibiscus Town hasn't been

touched by many political campaigns...

The County Party Committee has

handed down its strictest resolution yet!

Guoxiang, you've been in

Hibiscus Town for some time now...

Do you have any plans to marry?

Not a single one of the men

here meet my standards...

Secretary Li, they are all assembled!

- Crazy Qin!

- Here!

Let's hurry it up!

Everyone at attention!

Sir, the Five Categories Elements of

Hibiscus Town have finished assembling!

- Everyone is here?

- Yes, Sir!

- Rollcall!

- Yes, Sir!

The Rightist Qin Shutian?... Here!

- The Landlord Zhang Hongde?

- Here!

- The Landlord Zhang Yaozhong?

- Here!

- The Bad Element Tian Zhifen?

- Here!

- The Rich Peasant Liu Deqi?

- Here!

- The Anti-revolutionary Wang Jincheng?

- Here!

- The Rich Peasant... Li Fugui?

- Here!

What's with Li Fugui?

Sir, the Rich Peasant Li Fugui...

...suddenly began coughing blood

uncontrollably at 3:29 this afternoon...

Since he could not be here himself,

his grandson is here to replace him...

...and can pass on

any further instructions!

Ai, such wickedness!

Is this class struggle? Hmph!

I guess now it has to be passed

on to three generations...

Everyone go back to work, act

conscientiously, and don't make trouble...

- Dismissed!

- Let's go! Everyone back to work!

- Crazy Qin!

- Here!

Do you have supplies leftover

for painting slogans?

Sir, I still have some...

Paint another slogan on that

wall over there. Write...

I'lll have a look at some reports...

Wait a bit and come by to transcribe it.

Yes, Sir!

Sir, should today's slogan be painted

Whatever you used last time will be fine.

Yes, Sir... I guarantee

completion of this task!

Never forget...

...class struggle!

How's it look?

Director Gu...

Wang Qiushe agreed to sell

this part of his land to us...

- We want to build a small house here...

- Oh...

Use this to clean your face...

- OK, then...

- Take care...

Uncle, why was my request

to transfer denied?

You're the County Party Secretary,

can't you help it along?

Your transfer order is

coming down soon...

You are to become Section Chief

for the County Commerce Department.

- Wow, great!

- Have some tea!

- Eat some candy, give some to the child!

- This house is so bright and merry!
