Gu Yunyang quickly coughed.
Gu Hanping snapped out of his daze, looked back, and saw that the women had already walked away.
He finally breathed a sigh of relief.
As for luck, it seems there's nothing wrong with it.
But if someone with ulterior motives overhears this, it will be considered spreading superstition.
They might get arrested later, or lose their position as captain.
He has nowhere to regret it.
"Look at me, I don't even know how to keep my mouth shut. But that's what I meant."
The two did not continue the topic and took the bison to the cowshed. Old Zheng was overjoyed to see the mother and calf.
However, bison are somewhat wild and difficult to tame, so Gu Yunyang quickly helped with the rope-threading process.
With the nose acting as a restraint, and given that Old Zheng genuinely cared for the cow, Gu Yunyang felt reassured.
Gu Hanping's eyes were filled with joy as he looked back at Gu Yunyang, his expression radiating happiness.
This nephew is the apple of his eye in the Gu family.
If it weren't for the current prohibition against discussing superstitious matters, he would have loved to take firecrackers and set them off everywhere.
Gu Yunyang was almost burned by that scorching gaze, so he quickly changed the subject: "By the way, Captain, in a few days, after we send the goods to the city, the meeting will be held the following day. Our brigade needs to prepare anything we can exchange in the next few days."
Although it's called a gathering, things in the countryside are pretty much the same everywhere.
Most of the time, they would take eggs laid by their own hens, or old hens that didn't lay eggs, or woven baskets and straw mats, and exchange them with the commune members.
Urban residents had access to grain supplies, and workers could also earn money; it was a form of mutual exchange.
Gu Hanping's words were also largely correct: "However, you've raised chickens over there, why don't you raise a couple of pigs too?"
One is to fulfill the supply and marketing cooperative's quota; the other is that you can raise one yourself, and use it as a pig that year.
During the Lunar New Year, you always need to prepare some meat, right?
Although there were some in the base space, Gu Yunyang nodded and said, "Then I'll wait until the gathering to see if there are any piglets I can bring back to raise."
“Hongxing Brigade definitely has them; they raised a lot of sows last year.”
In fact, Gu Yunyang also wanted to raise some ducks in the Hongqi Brigade.
Locals love roast duck and roast goose; it's a great product.
Once they're properly raised, negotiate with local and even county-level state-owned restaurants to have a few delivered daily.
This would guarantee the meat supply for state-run hotels and eliminate the requirement for meat ration coupons, which I believe would be very welcome to both state-run hotels and citizens.
But I have so many things on my plate right now that I can't keep up.
If the fish fry are raised directly in the pond, there may be problems with the fry that have just been released.
Ducks eat fish.
Gu Yunyang indeed had no intention of interfering with the selection of the person to deliver the goods to the city.
They didn't even ask a single question.
Such things are actually very useful for them to establish their authority.
It can also attract a group of people.
However, Gu Yunyang did not value this aspect.
I don't want to cause any conflict with Gu Hanping because of this.
Although Gu Yunyang doesn't value this aspect, no one can say for sure whether Gu Hanping does.
The projects that Gu Yunyang brought to the Red Flag Brigade were enough to establish his authority.
This can be seen from the fact that people started bringing him eggs as gifts.
Two days later, Gu Hanping selected four honest and kind-hearted middle-aged men to be in charge of the matter.
I talked to Gu Yunyang about it.
Gu Yunyang nodded in agreement, saying, "The choice of the captain is good. He's honest and reliable, and not young, so he won't neglect his duties. However, the captain still needs to keep a close eye on them and stipulate that they cannot leave at the same time."
