Chapter 556 Two Salaries, Shen Yu Finds the Commune (2/2)



Gu Yunyang smiled.

The brigade secretary didn't even give out money for a month, just a few coupons.

How can that be considered a job?

Okay, they even gave us work points.

Ten a day, that's three hundred a month.

Not having to go to work and getting work points for free isn't so bad.

Based on the work points of the Red Flag Brigade last year, each work point was worth one cent, so three hundred work points would be worth three yuan.

That's not a small amount either.

Aren't there still a few tickets left?

After chatting for a while, Xing Kai said, "The higher-ups might reduce the rations even further. I really don't know how we're going to get by."

Gu Yunyang is different from the others.

Other urban workers did not have that many food coupons each month.

However, they had a fixed amount of grain, and they could buy grain at the grain station with their grain ration book.

Gu Yunyang knew that the reason for reducing the ration was that the whole country was experiencing poor harvests and drought, and without reducing the ration, it would not be enough.

After a moment of sighing, Gu Yunyang took his leave.

When they returned to the brigade headquarters, Gu Hanping and the others were already there.

Gu Yunyang recounted the contents of today's commune meeting, and the scene became eerily quiet for a moment.

Gu Hanping said with some concern, "So, does this mean we have to deliver an extra fifty catties of rice this year?"

Still per mu (unit of land area).

How are we going to live like this from now on?

Everyone else had a gloomy expression.

Although chemical fertilizers were used this year, the yield may increase somewhat.

However, another typhoon followed, which reduced production even further.

It may be even worse than last year.

As a result, they had to pay an extra fifty kilograms.

However, it's definitely not acceptable not to complete the tasks assigned from above.

Chen Qijue sighed, "Then we can only wait for Secretary Hao to try and get it."

If you can use sweet potatoes instead, or make some sweet potato noodles or something.

They are willing to put in a little more effort.

At this moment, Shen Yu also arrived at the commune and found Fu Shuhua.

Fu Shuhua warmly welcomed him inside, poured him a cup of tea, and asked curiously, "What's wrong with you?"

Shen Yu said, "It's like this, we haven't seen each other for a long time, so I came to see you."

Secondly, I have some things I'd like to ask you about.

Fu Shuhua was taken aback: "What is it?"

He thought Shen Yu had come to see him about something.

Fu Shuhua also had some power in the commune, and he could help with some minor matters.

However, if it involves a lot of favors, then we still need to discuss it.

Shen Yu said a few words, then casually remarked, "I just came to ask, did you know that a young intellectual sent to the countryside has come to the Hongqi Brigade?"

Fu Shuhua asked curiously, "Several educated youths have come to the Red Flag Brigade. But they're all girls. Why are you asking about this? You haven't fallen for one of them, have you?"

Fu Shuhua said earnestly, "I advise you not to consider the educated youth. They came down to support rural development, but they weren't originally from here. When they return to the city, do you really want to go with them?"

The work of the military and armed forces is not so easy to be transferred.

Shen Yu was taken aback, realizing that Fu Shuhua had misunderstood his purpose. He said with a wry smile, "What are you talking about? It's not like that."

"What's going on?" Fu Shuhua glanced at Shen Yu, raised an eyebrow, and said, "You're not the kind of person who meddles in other people's business. You don't come here unless you have something to say. You must have something in mind."

"It's like this, my old man used to..."
