Zhuge Qiao was still a little dazed, but since Gu Yunyang was still translating, Principal Zhong didn't say anything.
Principal Zhong gave Zhuge Qiao a wink, signaling him to calm down.
Zhuge Qiao nodded, intending to wait a while and ask about the situation later.
Over there, Gu Hanping took the five catties of pork fat given to him by Gu Yunyang.
He was also very happy.
People in the countryside didn't have oil coupons, so they only had a few ways to get oil.
However, the sources of oil in the countryside are generally more abundant than in towns, but they are still limited.
He said to accountant Chen Qijue and the newly appointed women's director Yang Xiulian, "This is the pork fat that Secretary Gu brought back; he got it through connections."
Each of our brigade cadres can exchange for half a jin (250 grams), no coupons needed, but the amount cannot be less.
Chen Qijue naturally wouldn't refuse. As brigade cadres, they would occasionally receive some coupons, but they basically didn't receive any oil coupons.
There aren't enough for urban residents, so why would they be given some?
In the entire brigade, who doesn't need oil?
Well, maybe Gu Yunyang doesn't need it.
Otherwise, why would they be willing to take out five catties of lard?
Yang Xiulian nodded happily, "I didn't expect Secretary Gu to have this channel. We certainly have no objections. It's his skill that Secretary Gu was able to get this. He even gave it to us without asking for tickets. We've already gotten a great deal, so why would we have any objections?"
Gu Yunyang treated them well; it's good that they knew how to be grateful.
I'm afraid it'll be another case like Gao Cuiping, who gets the benefits but doesn't remember the kindness.
All they do all day is argue and make trouble.
They cut half a jin of lard for each of the brigade cadres and charged them four mao each.
Don't be fooled by the fact that half a pound may seem like a small amount; it can provide your family with a significant amount of fat.
The rest, another pound was cut for Fan Xiangbei to render into oil, so he could eat some of the oil residue to nourish his body.
The elders in several villages of the brigade also received a few ounces.
Unfortunately, the concept of clan is still quite strong in the South.
Don't be fooled by the fact that every issue is resolved by the brigade.
But when something really big happens, the power of the clan is still very strong.
This aspect still needs to be taken into consideration.
In fact, the reason why Gu Hanping did this was because the brigade cadres did not have any objections to Gu Yunyang.
But clans are not necessarily the same.
Gu Yunyang was young and had just returned from the capital, so he didn't have much of a concept of local clans.
We don't usually have much contact.
Although I greet everyone I meet.
However, some of the etiquette was lacking.
Fortunately, Gu Hanping was the captain himself, and he had considerable authority within the clan.
Therefore, the Gu family clan in Dongshan Village were fully aware of Gu Yunyang's identity and had no objections.
Our family has produced a fine son, a promising one, capable of leading the entire team to development.
They're too proud to even think about it.
There is no conflict of interest.
Finally, Gu Hanping returned home with 1.7 jin of lard. As soon as he entered the house, he saw Hao Pingping sitting in the yard tending to ramie.
This is used to make homespun cloth, also called summer cloth.
The most famous ramie fabric comes from western Jiangxi, but it is also grown in a small number of places in Guangdong province.
Summer fabric is breathable and fine for making summer clothes. It can also be used as a steamer cloth.
Some bedding, curtains, etc. are also acceptable.
When Gu Hanping returned, he handed over the lard: "Here, Yunyang brought it over. Go ask the third brother's family later and see if they want it."
