A person's annual meat ration coupons might not even be enough for a proper meal. Saving up for a long time to eat dumplings was a heavenly experience.
Compared to that, the village has its own unique advantages. There's a saying: "Those who live by the mountains eat from the mountains, and those who live by the sea eat from the sea." Wild game from the mountains and fat fish from the water, under the premise of public ownership, can provide everyone with more supplements.
The reason for this batch of dried meat is that Shi Lingheng went up the mountain again!
The village chief treated the back mountain, which the villagers of Xiangyang Village avoided like the plague, as his own backyard. Whenever he had his eye on it, he would plan to raid it. After a few tries, he became quite familiar with it, and now even the village chief was quite unfazed.
Shi Zhiqing is a capable man and won't be in any danger. In the past, when Li Dafu heard that Shi Lingheng was going to the back mountain, he would immediately call on the villagers to go and meet him. But now he says, "Oh, we have to thank Shi Zhiqing for improving our meals again."
Shi Lingheng's share of the hunting spoils was to be distributed, and he didn't feel any resentment. Firstly, this land belonged to Xiangyang Brigade, and secondly, the village chief's distribution method was relatively fair. According to the current regulations, even if he didn't get any or only a small share, it wouldn't be considered wrong.
Several hundred kilograms of meat was enough for an entire village, and quite a bit of it ended up in Shi Lingheng's hands, where he skillfully processed it into jerky.
Fan Yunyan took a bite and immediately became interested in the meat. He pestered Shi Lingheng to exchange some other food or money with him to send to Fan Xiaofan.
Shi Lingheng also found the honey in the back mountain, but he didn't like the sweet stuff, so he simply had Fan Yunyan take it to Fan Xiaofan.
Seeing her brother leading Fu Weidong, both carrying large bags and small packages, Fan Xiaofan fell into a deep silence...
"Were you kicked out?"
Her tone was extremely serious and earnest.
Fu Weidong rolled his eyes and placed the honey he was carefully holding on the table: "Shi Lingheng asked me to deliver it."
He always thought he was playing the role of a five-year-old little dumpling very seriously, but things are different after all. Although the little dumpling didn't like Shi Lingheng and thought he was a devil, she would still reluctantly call him "Master".
But now, Fu Weidong is actually an adult inside him, and he can't bring himself to call him that.
Over there, Fan Yunyan proudly opened the dried meat he had exchanged with Shi Lingheng for money and other things, and showed it to Fan Xiaofan.
Fan Xiaofan sighed, waved to the two of them, and opened the cabinet. Inside were the things she had packed to bring back to the Xiangyang Brigade during her break, which turned out to be dried meat and honey.
Fan Yunyan blinked, looked down at what they had brought on the table, and then at what was in the cabinet, feeling completely bewildered.
"Where did this come from?"
Now that dried meat and honey are so cheap, why are there so many of them appearing out of nowhere?
This should be a rare and sought-after item that's hard to buy even with money and tickets, right?
Fan Xiaofan sat down in the chair, looking at the pile of things in front of him with a headache. He didn't want to tell Fan Yunyan directly about what he had done, so he simply said, resting his chin on his hand, "They were gifts from someone as a thank you."
The dried meat and honey were specially delivered to Fan Xiaofan by the president of the neighboring Jiacheng company and the head of the bicycle parts factory. The market for geared bicycles is huge now, and the factory there has expanded several times over. They are now a shining example of bringing glory to the country. People who know what they do think highly of them. They are very impressive when they go out now.
After things improved in Jiaxing, the city upgraded its equipment, moving from simple guns to powerful cannons.
