The original radicals still wanted to oppose it, but when they saw the money on the table, they couldn't say anything.
Moreover, the brigade leader said that those who participated in making pastries would not only receive a bonus but also full work points. This woman only did cooking but earned more than the men in the family. Although they were jealous, it wouldn't be unacceptable if the women in the family participated.
The team leader initially planned to produce the orders for three days later, and then use those days to build the houses in the village.
The meeting lasted three hours. Usually, everyone is dejected, but today, even until the end of the meeting, everyone was still holding their heads high and full of energy.
Full of energy.
After the meeting ended, everyone rushed back to tell their mothers that they must participate in the pastry making.
"Wanyue, thank you this time." He took out twenty yuan and stuffed it into Qiao Wanyue's hand.
He then slipped another twenty yuan into Secretary Guo's hand.
“The village’s infrastructure is not yet complete and we still need money. Secretary and Wanyue, don’t worry, I remember all your contributions.”
Qiao Wanyue unceremoniously stuffed the money into her purse.
Secretary Guo didn't stand on ceremony and stuffed it directly into his pocket.
Now I can go home and cut cloth for my wife to make clothes.
Secretary Guo was secretly delighted.
"We are all serving the people, it's our duty," Secretary Guo said grandly.
The captain laughed and punched him, saying, "Serving the people doesn't cost money, so give me the money."
Secretary Guo took two steps back and clutched his pocket tightly.
He had an expression that said, "I'd rather die than give you my money."
“Model workers also need to eat. Once you’ve given me the money, you can’t ask for it back.” Secretary Guo said warily.
"A miserly old man."
The captain laughed and cursed.
He knew that Secretary Guo was not a greedy person; it was just that his family was struggling to make ends meet. Secretary Guo's family was better off than the villagers, but only slightly better. He had only received a basic salary all these years.
His own clothes had several patches on them.
He wanted Secretary Guo to go back and make a couple of sets of clothes, as he would need Guo to negotiate future collaborations; otherwise, it would be the people of Xiahe Village who would lose face.
But he didn't mention it, afraid of hurting Secretary Guo's pride.
Secretary Guo's wife is very perceptive, and he loves her dearly. He always gives her the money when he gets home, and she understands as soon as she sees it.
As for the one given to Qiao Wanyue, the captain always felt guilty. She had unconditionally given up the formula and run around doing all the work. Her meager salary was simply not enough. She could have just taken it to the county town or made it herself and sold it on the black market.
She earns much more than she did as a communications officer.
But she didn't. She treated the people of Xiaohe Village with all her heart and wanted to be good to more people in Xiaohe Village, and he naturally appreciated this.
The three of them walked out chatting and laughing.
They ran into Bai Hongjun with a little girl.
"Bai Zhiqing, what's going on?" The brigade leader frowned when he saw the little girl behind Bai Zhiqing.
The little girl's name is Ouyang Qing.
He didn't have a good impression of the girl. She was weak and prone to falling in the wind. She had been working in the countryside for over a year and had collapsed in the fields seven or eight times. Moreover, she kept her head down and didn't say a word. As the saying goes in the countryside, you can't get a word out of her with a stick.
That's her.
"Captain, I need to ask you for a favor."
The brigade leader had a very good impression of Bai Hongjun. "Go ahead," he said. This time, he planned to let Bai Hongjun continue to be a salesman and be in charge of selling Xiahe Village's pastries to outsiders.
He was struggling to decide what position to give Bai Hongjun.
