Chapter 302: Hitting the Educated Youth



Ever since Zhao Wei came to the fore, the sky in Yushudun has always been sunny.

Many villagers were still secretly keeping the wild boar meat distributed last time in their homes, without expecting that they would have to distribute fish this time.

The men Zhao Wei brought out each came back carrying two or three fish.

Each one weighs dozens of kilograms.

If they were not really unable to bear it any longer, they would have wanted to carry back a mountain of fish.

The prey of Erxiao and his friends was forcibly pulled back by the crowd using ropes tied to a raft.

The journey was very cool, but it was a pity that there were no villages or people along the way, so there was no place to show off even if I wanted to.

Unfortunately, although these things were obtained by a few of them with great effort, in order to avoid being charged with infringing on collective property, the whole village chose to harvest them together.

The accountant was touching the account book and clacking the abacus. He felt an indescribable sense of glory and worked very hard.

But when the abacus beads were moved halfway, they broke.

This abacus can be used for many years, but the accountant has been using it for a long time. After it was scrapped, he couldn't figure out the accounts no matter how hard he tried, and he was very anxious.

At this point, we either have to send someone to the town to buy a new abacus, but the round trip will take an hour.

The people in the village were in high spirits and couldn't wait any longer. They wanted to cut the fish and divide the meat right away.

Master Lin's apprentice was also sharpening his knife, ready to slaughter the fish. But now he could only squat on the ground depressed, sucking on a cigarette that was about to burn out.

Huangmao jumped out at this time: "Master, this job has to be done by you, none of us can calculate it clearly, hehe..."

Zhao Wei was tired after a day and a night. He raised his eyebrows and called the remaining three educated youth in the village.

"You three will be responsible. If the calculation is not clear, you will have to pay for the loss."

The three of them had never been able to work, but the educated youth had more food rations than the ordinary villagers. Each man received 25 kilograms of food per month, and each woman received 20 kilograms.

But what do the villagers have?

Their crops last year were not enough to pay the public grain tax, and now they still owe money, so they have not received any grain for a long time.

Even in normal years, the amount of food they earned after working so hard was only comparable to the share of the educated youth.

In other words, the educated youth who came here did not work well but were paid more.

This has invisibly created a contradiction, and many people have opinions about the educated youth.

Zhao Wei didn't want to deal with the three of them, he just wanted to teach them a lesson so that they could better integrate into the group.

Otherwise, they will always be excluded and isolated, which will be detrimental to their future development.

These educated youth arrived too early. In the future, this unified supply of food rations will disappear, and they will eventually have to participate in the distribution of food by the production team like the villagers.

Now, it’s just a precautionary measure.

The three educated youth were being stared at by so many eyes at this time, and they couldn't say the words to refuse no matter what, because the villagers were shouting in a sarcastic manner.

"Oh my, you educated youth have such a high level of education, it's a piece of cake for you to handle such a small matter, otherwise I would be embarrassed to collect the educated youth rations!"

"If you can do it, then do it. If you can't, we won't force you. But if you have a bad reputation in the future, don't blame us for saying bad things!"

Zhao Wei just drank the sugar water leisurely.

It’s true, people in later generations never drink this kind of stuff, but nowadays, if I drink it occasionally, I think it’s quite nourishing.

In an age of material scarcity, being able to eat something sweet was considered a luxury.

The sweet soup that Zhao Wei drinks is different from what ordinary people drink. It does not contain white sugar, but wild honey that he got from the mountains. Just take a sip and it feels so delicious!

He caught a lot of queen bees last time, and it takes about three months for the honey from them to be harvested.

Then we can achieve honey freedom, tsk tsk…

When his mood became very good, he saw three educated youth being forced to sit down by the crowd and start to settle accounts.

These people don't normally do farm work and they can't even read a scale.

So, the accountant helped to count, and they recorded the weight of each scale first.

Zhao Wei also wanted to test the level of these people.

It turned out that the three people couldn't even do such a small thing properly. When registering two of the data, they either wrote the wrong decimal point or added an extra zero.

If the result of this mistake is really imposed on the three of them, I'm afraid they will lose everything they have.

After despising the three people in his heart, he did not say anything to point out anything. He just stood by and watched silently.

After everything was over, the three of them made repeated calculations and came up with a number.

For the villagers of Yushuyu, each household can get a total of 9.8 kilograms of meat.

This amount of meat was really a lot. When the villagers heard the news, they were so happy that they were grinning.

Just when Master Lin was about to start distributing the food, Zhao Wei stopped him on the spot.

"How slow!"

Everyone looked at Zhao Wei curiously, wondering if he had anything else to say.

Although I was very anxious, I still waited patiently.

They had to listen to Zhao Wei's words. Without his insistence, they would only be able to eat steamed buns made with wild vegetables.

"This is not right. If you distribute it this way, there will be nine families who will not get any meat. Are you sure you can afford this responsibility?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the villagers immediately became furious.

"That won't do. You must not make a mistake. You can't joke about such a big thing."

"That's right. If the division is wrong, these nine families will suffer huge losses."

"Can you guys do it? If not, just get out of here. You're becoming so arrogant day by day. You're nothing. Haha..."

It is normal for the villagers to be a little angry. After all, no one wants to be the one who gets no share.

After being questioned and challenged in this way, the three educated youth felt quite embarrassed and started arguing with red faces.

"We have confirmed that each household can get this much. We...we are willing to take responsibility for what we said. Is that okay?"

After that, he glared at Zhao Wei with some dissatisfaction: "President, you haven't even calculated it, how can you just say that we calculated it wrong? Such slanderous behavior is too shameful!"

"Humph! Even if the calculation is wrong, we have the ability to compensate. At worst... we can just take out our rations."

"Now that we've come to this, if you don't want to divide it according to what we say, then it's none of our business!"

Zhao Wei looked at their grinning faces and said calmly, "Since you dare to make such a promise, there are so many people here as witnesses, so you are not allowed to cheat!"

Several people expressed their opinions without hesitation.

"A gentleman's word is as good as his bond. Stop wasting time and break up!"
