The men had been busy all night, working with all their strength, and were already exhausted.
The rest of the things are left to the women to handle.
Right there in the threshing ground, they started building a stove and then lit a hot fire to slough the pigs.
If you collect these things, you can exchange them for money, so they shouldn't be wasted.
The old woman was very meticulous in her work. She specially found a dustpan to collect the dust and waited until it was dried before disposing of it.
Then they opened the pig's stomach and took out the offal, head, etc., which were sorted into different basins, and then they started weighing.
The combined weight of more than ten adult wild boars was almost the same as what Zhao Wei had harvested when he took people up the mountain to hunt.
But at that time, there were only about 40 people sharing it.
Now it is divided among hundreds of households.
In order to ensure that everyone could have a share of the meat, everyone agreed to divide it by headcount instead of by household.
In some families, there is only one person in one account, and if they get too much food, they won’t be able to finish it.
Some families have more than ten people but still don’t have enough food.
The accountant in the commune was clacking his abacus, and he had never felt so happy before.
There was so much meat, which I brought down the mountain by myself. It almost hurt someone. It was only natural for them to share it and eat it.
In this world, there is nothing more joyful than having sex for free.
The final result is - 2340 kilograms.
This is the spring time when the animals are still young and have not yet fully grown.
If it were a different season, I'm afraid I could get 3,000 kilograms.
There are a total of 1,289 people in the entire Yushudun, young and old.
Originally there were more than 1,300 people, but after subtracting those in prison and those who died, and adding some new students, this is the final result.
Those who have newborns at home can really get a great bargain.
Even such a young child can get a pound of meat to eat.
It looks like a lot of meat, but when it is distributed among people, each person only gets one pound, plus some pig offal.
In the end, the six men were too embarrassed to ask for 10 pounds of pure meat, so they just asked for a pig's head.
This pig head looks like it’s all bones, but you can still cook out some meat from it, which is better than nothing.
Seeing that everyone had divided the things and the scene was left in a mess, Zhao Wei sighed in his heart.
Working hard and vigorously can only provide emergency relief, but it cannot save poverty.
We have to think of other ways to fill this mouth. We can't let people starve to death.
Sitting in the position of president, he can still hear a lot of news that others don’t know when he goes out to study.
In some villages, many people died of freezing or starvation after a winter.
Although some of their people in Yushudun died, none of them died because of this kind of thing, and he was praised for this.
This is all thanks to the previous president and has little to do with him.
But since he is sitting here, he naturally has to prevent such things from happening during the disasters in the past few years.
After the meat was divided, the work did not stop. There was so much work to do every day, and someone had to plant the destroyed crops.
Zhao Wei is in good spirits. He has an eight-minute sleep method that can restore his body to its best condition in the shortest time.
But others didn't do this. They just did their work while yawning, and then ran home in a hurry to cook meat.
After Zhao Wei returned home, he did not go to see his grandfather and others immediately.
From a distance, he heard them tormenting Liu Xiaoyu again.
Yesterday they insisted that she stole their things.
So, before leaving, Zhao Wei returned these things to their original owners.
There shouldn't be any more trouble.
His idea was to counter the opponent's moves and delay it for as long as possible.
But I didn't expect that after Liu Xiaoyu's grievances had been cleared, she would rush to cause trouble again. She is really itching for trouble, so let her do whatever she wants.
He secretly signaled to Yunxiu, and the two of them went to the storage room in the back mountain in tacit understanding.
This place had already been expanded, and it looked particularly spacious inside. You didn't need to hunch your back or look forward to entering, you could just walk in.
This place is a space dug out according to the terrain of the mountain, and it is somewhat like a cave.
In the past, when some families could not afford to build houses, they would dig a cave like this as a house. It was warm in winter and cool in summer, making it a good place to cool off.
In order to facilitate storage, Zhao Wei dug two at once, one for storing grain and the other for some daily crops.
One is used to grow mushrooms.
All his beehives have been moved to places with more flowers. However, mushroom cultivation requires a dark and humid place, and this cave fully meets the conditions.
Zhao Wei is not unfamiliar with this planting.
In the past, he lived in the mountains with his grandfather. His grandfather had been to so many places. He was like an encyclopedia that could never be fully read and taught him many things.
He had heard about the mushroom cultivation technology before, but this was his first time to carry out the specific operation.
Half a month later, he came to check whether there was any mycelium growing on the basswood.
There are more than a hundred pieces of wood in total. The main reason is that there are not many mushrooms, so it is a little difficult to find them in spring. By summer, they will grow all over the mountains and it will be more convenient to collect seeds at that time.
He had limited strains of bacteria, so he could only get a small amount to test the waters.
I come to see it every day, always hoping for a miracle to happen.
Of course, the main purpose of coming here now is to get away from the mess there.
I just didn’t expect that I would actually see a glimmer of hope.
When Zhao Wei saw some inconspicuous white spots on the basswood, he knew that in five days at most, these white spots would grow into a silk net shape and then produce a lot of wood ears and shiitake mushrooms.
"If this thing grows, can we call on everyone to plant it together?"
When Zhao Wei heard Yunxiu's words, he felt a little troubled.
He couldn't talk about this kind of thing publicly at the meeting, so he would have to come up with a pretext to get the villagers to pick up the basswood.
Then... we still have to rely on literacy classes to let everyone learn the techniques of growing this mushroom.
When the time comes, I'll have to trouble my old grandmother.
Normally, the old grandmother only teaches embroidery. The women in the village also have embroidery tasks. Her presence helps everyone earn a lot more work points.
It can be said that the knowledge revealed by such a respected elder like her will not cause any backlash or resistance from anyone.
Most men are stubborn. When it comes to growing mushrooms, women have to take the lead and let some people benefit first.
Then……
