Without the oxen, how can we plow the fields?
You can't just dig it up one hoe at a time!
"Village chief, please write this down for my nephew Chengyuan."
After Yu Sanzhu finished speaking, he turned to his mother and complained.
"Mother, please say less, or we'll end up with nothing!"
Wang snorted coldly, but said nothing more.
She didn't want to end up benefiting others.
"I've noted it down, Chengyuan, you can continue."
Zhou Jianguo nodded, feeling that this division of the family property was reasonable.
However, he couldn't help but admire the eldest son of the Yu family. He was clear-headed, and the division of the family property seemed to be a well-planned scheme, with each step linked to the next.
This led both the selfish and mean-spirited Wang Shi and the cunning and treacherous Yu Laosan to compromise.
Few people have ever gained an advantage from the Wang family.
This kid has some skills; it seems he's been hiding them all along, or he's just pretending to be stupid.
After the family splits up, let the son interact more with the eldest son's two brothers; he'll probably learn something from them.
"Now that the cows have been divided up, there are only two geese and one pig left."
Let's divide the pigs first!
The remaining pig weighs about 250 jin (125 kg), which is divided into three portions, meaning each family receives about 83 jin (41.5 catties).
However, after deducting the internal organs and other ingredients from each serving, even if it's 20 jin (10 kg), each family would only have 63 jin (36.5 catties) of meat left.
Based on the current pork price, it's about 1.2 yuan per jin (500g).
I don't want the cow, but I can't just not want the pig!
Give me the pig; you already have two pigs over there.
If you agree, I'll start calculating the money.
There isn't much pork available now, so we can either sell it for money or slaughter it for ourselves to eat during the Lunar New Year.
Although there are no cattle available for the time being, it is already the seventh month of the lunar calendar, and the double harvest season has passed.
Plowing will have to begin next spring, which will be in March.
Therefore, cattle are not a necessity at present, so there's no rush.
Moreover, they can buy a calf to raise during this time, which will be just in time for plowing the fields in the spring.
"I disagree. What you're thinking..."
"mother………"
Before Wang could finish speaking, Yu Laosan was interrupted.
Then we heard our son nod repeatedly, "We have no objection, you do the math!"
"Second Uncle and Second Aunt, do you have any objections?"
The second son and his wife, who were mentioned, immediately shook their heads. "Chengyuan, we have no objections."
Just kidding, my mother-in-law and the third son and his wife have no objections, how could they dare!
"Alright, let's continue."
Your two portions of pork, which are 63 yuan per jin each, total 126 jin. At 1.2 yuan per jin, that's 151 yuan.
That means I'm short 151 yuan.
"Uncle Zhou, could you please write this down? My 151 yuan."
"Okay, I've got it!"
Zhou Jianguo nodded and quickly wrote it down.
