Lin Guoping was cheering for Gu Yanting in his heart!
It has to be Gu Yanting. He really dared to speak up. Just like that, he got 70 sheep for free?
Oh, it’s not free, it’s on credit, it’s on credit!
If he came by himself, he really wouldn't ask for so much, at most he would just ask for some millet.
Receiving Gu Yanting's signal, Lin Guoping gave him a "just wait and see" expression, then cleared his throat and said:
"Just let it go like this? There are only so many sheep, how can they be enough?"
Seeing that Captain Zhang was about to jump up and roar, Lin Guoping was afraid that he would go back on his word and not give the sheep, so he quickly changed his words:
"It's not impossible to give the sheep to these, but how can we take the sheep back? I think there are other animals to guard them so they can go back. The cows next to them are very suitable!"
"How about that, Captain Zhang? Can you lend us your cows? Don't worry, we will definitely return them. Are we the kind of people who won't return them?"
If you borrow something, you must pay it back. How much and when to pay it back will be discussed later!
After all, it’s a journey, and what if one of them runs out of energy and dies along the way, right!
Besides, it’s so far, it will take time to send it back, three to five years, right!
Lin Guoping didn't need to say these words. When Captain Zhang heard about borrowing, he felt like his cow was about to fly away!
He flatly refused:
"Impossible! This is collective property. We can't borrow it from one end. Forget about it!"
Lin Guoping was not in a hurry either. He smiled and said:
"Captain Zhang, everything can be discussed. Otherwise, you said that you sold so many sheep on credit. If I were to be more open-minded and advertise to the nearby production teams one by one, do you think you would still have sheep left?"
"Or, once Lao Gu takes the sheep away, I will talk to the villagers in Zhangjiagou Production Team about this matter. Do you think you can still be the team leader?"
Captain Zhang didn't expect that Lin Guoping could be so shameless. They had all benefited from it, but he still used this matter to threaten him!
It is true, what can a gentleman endure? What cannot be endured? If my uncle can endure it, then I have to endure it too!
There was no other way. He was really afraid that other production teams would know and come to borrow sheep, and he was also afraid that the villagers would know how the sheep were borrowed!
Who made us run into two rogues? Captain Zhang had no choice but to compromise:
"Two cows, at most. Any more would be unreasonable. After all, our team only has more than ten cows, and cows are much more valuable than sheep!"
Lin Guoping, like Gu Yanting, opened his mouth loudly:
"Ten, maybe. More cows to protect these sheep will also give us peace of mind!"
"Once we are assured, we keep our mouths shut. Otherwise, when I get anxious and angry, I will find people to tell nonsense!"
Captain Zhang had no choice but to cede land and pay compensation.
"Three, no more is really enough. These are big animals. I spent so much effort to get them. No one wants them like you do. You want to take away most of them at once!"
Lin Guoping glanced at the cowshed reluctantly, and finally shouted:
"Just five, that's not all I want. Give us two calves as a bonus. Two calves are not as good as an adult cow. Captain Zhang, you're making a profit!"
Captain Zhang wanted to spit in Lin Guoping's face. He even made a profit. He lost everything today. He was really saying that with a shameless face!
Captain Zhang bit his teeth until they bled:
"I'll give you two calves, which are the biggest of the four. I won't write them on the note, just as a favor. Hurry up and leave. Don't let me see you again. Watch your mouths, or I'll chase you to the horizon and I'll get the cows and sheep back!"
Lin Guoping was satisfied. This was a lot, six of them, big and small!
He made a gesture of sealing his mouth and said:
"Don't worry, Captain Zhang. Lao Gu and I are the most strict with our mouths. We promise that we won't even talk about this in our dreams or sleep!"
"Let's go, Captain Zhang. Divide the food from Shouwang and Shangjing among them. Then let us pick out which sheep and cattle to take away so that we can write a note to Captain Zhang!"
Now that things have come to this, Captain Zhang can only take two people with him to distribute the food!
Captain Zhang also witnessed the two men's ability to ask for a lot, so when distributing food, they counted the full work points.
I remember that when we bullied the educated youth before, all the work points of 6 and 8 were invalidated, and all were increased to super high work points of 10 and 12.
In addition, the time that Lin Shouwang and Lin Shangjing spent in the commune clinic during these days was counted as full work points, and their per capita rations were no longer based on the amount of teenagers as before, but on the amount of able-bodied laborers.
The grains distributed were also the best and highest quality, and the ratio was not 10:1 of coarse grains to fine grains, but 1:1 of coarse grains to fine grains!
Of course, the practice of having half of the coarse grains be bran is even more unacceptable!
Coarse grains are counted as soybeans, green beans, and mung beans!
Lin Shouwang and Lin Shangjing shared a total of 500 kilograms of wheat and 250 kilograms of millet!
200 kilograms of soybeans, 100 kilograms of mung beans, 400 kilograms of glutinous rice, and 150 kilograms of sesame seeds.
Anyway, Gu Yanting said these are coarse grains, so they are coarse grains, no matter if it is glutinous rice which is more rare than rice, or sesame which is extremely expensive and has a low yield!
To Gu Yanting, either wheat or millet is called “coarse grains”!
As for corn and the like, they can be divided into different kinds, but they are quite rare!
If soybeans didn't need to be pressed for oil, and mung beans could be used to make soup to relieve summer heat, Gu Yanting would have been so shameless as to ask for glutinous rice and sesame seeds!
In addition to the 300 kilograms of millet that was promised as compensation, another 400 kilograms of millet had to be distributed.
After all, foxtail millet and millet are different. At that time, Captain Zhang said that the compensation was for millet, so the shell must be removed!
So, Lin Shouwang and Lin Shangjing divided a total of 500 kilograms of wheat, 650 kilograms of millet, 400 kilograms of glutinous rice, 200 kilograms of soybeans, 100 kilograms of mung beans, and 150 kilograms of sesame seeds!
We were also compensated with 20 lambs and 2 calves. It was a really satisfying return!
As for the things that Lin Shouwang and Lin Shangjing usually used, because there was a serious water shortage here, their clothes and bedding were not washed.
So, after looking around, Gu Yanting took the two sets of military uniforms that he had sent to the two of them this year, as their recent change of clothes, and did not take anything else!
After handing the other things to Tang Yan and asking him to deal with them, Lin Guoping left the Youth League Home with a small bag!
It was too difficult to take away so many living creatures and food. So the two of them had no choice but to "borrow" an ox cart from Captain Zhang, and drove the cart overnight, taking the cattle and sheep away!
I have to run away. What if Captain Zhang changes his mind? I have to leave, and leave now. I can't stay for even a minute longer!
