(Thank you for the gift, I wish you good fortune every year!)
Captain Lu couldn't stand having this basin of dirty water splashed on him, so he patted his clothes and said, "Let's go, I'll ask your sister-in-law to kill a chicken!"
The villagers who hadn't had time to go back asked: "What? The captain wants to kill chickens?"
"What? The captain wants to kill chickens at the headquarters?"
"Is this true? The captain wants to kill a chicken to reward us?"
Captain Lu:...That's how rumors spread!
Just like that, Captain Lu, with a dark face and stiff legs, was surrounded by the crowd and walked towards Dahe Village.
Secretary He patted his pipe and laughed happily: "Let's go and kill the chickens!"
The villagers of Dam Village nearby were very envious of the happy scene!
Over the years, the village leader has never killed a chicken, let alone a chicken feather...
Alas, it is really frustrating to compare yourself with others. Many aunts secretly clenched their fists and insisted that their daughters marry into Dahe Village!
I'll go back to the village and ask which young man is hard-working and has a rich family...
Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye it was time to distribute food. This was the most exciting time for everyone.
The whole family, young and old, pushed carts and carried shoulder poles towards the brigade headquarters.
There were a few lively children, holding a broken gong and beating it: "It's time to distribute the food, it's time to distribute the food!" It was so lively!
Wu Yu took Wen Sihe's arm and said happily, "When we divide the grain, we also need to divide the work points from last year's autumn harvest. That's a lot, right?"
Li Guihua on the side nodded repeatedly: "Yes, you should be able to get a lot of food, He He is fine.
In your case, it would be best to exchange part of the food for money, and then go to the brigade headquarters to buy more if it is not enough.
Otherwise, it is not safe to keep food in the house!"
In the past year, many villagers have had food stolen from their homes.
Everyone was on high alert, but the thieves seemed to have figured out where everyone's food was stored.
In some homes, when they woke up in the morning, they found a big hole behind the house and a lot of food had been stolen.
Even in their youth training center, there was a case of food being stolen from the kitchen.
Wu Yu covered her mouth and whispered, "Yeah, I'll save the money later."
Inside the brigade headquarters, Captain Lu saw that most people were there, so he tapped the microphone hard.
"It's the annual grain distribution time again. This year our brigade has a lot more grain than last year.
This is all due to the hard work of everyone....”
Captain Lu spoke in an official tone, using the same words as before, but everyone still cheered!
He waved to Secretary He who was standing beside him, and Secretary He carefully took out the notebook from his arms.
He placed it on the table and said “Hello, hello, hello” a few times into the microphone.
He cleared his throat and said, "This year, our brigade's total grain output is 804,000 kilograms."
As soon as he finished speaking, thunderous applause broke out from the audience.
"The public grain is 25 percent, 210,200 catties. The surplus is 15 percent, 95,400 catties.
A total of 50,000 catties of seed grain and feed grain were retained, and the village levy was still 80,000 catties as in the past.
There are a total of 366,600 kilograms left. It can be considered an auspicious number."
Lu Zhiye and Wen Sihe brought small stools and sat under the big tree. Wen Sihe was silently calculating in his mind.
I couldn't help but blurt out: "This year our team has made a lot of false reports..."
Lu Zhiye nodded: "This is not too high. This is only an over-report of more than 30,000 catties. Other brigades have over-reported more than 100,000 catties."
Wen Sihe remembered what was shown in TV dramas before. In order to increase production, all members had to tighten their belts and work hard!
Even after being busy for a whole year, there is still not enough food, and the children at home are crying with hunger.
But the food has to be saved for the main labor force.
"Oh..." Wen Sihe sighed silently and looked up to the front.
Secretary He turned another page in the notebook and continued, "In our village, there are 40 more people in total, including marriages, new additions, and educated youth sent to the countryside, than last year.
There are 540 people in total. According to the ratio of 60% labor and 40% work per person, each person can get 407 kilograms of food, which is much more than last year...”
When the villagers in the audience heard this number, their palms turned red from clapping with excitement.
Most people can figure out a small amount of data, but if they get too much data, it's like listening to a mystery.
Therefore, the long string of numbers that Secretary He spoke at the beginning were all in a formulaic manner. After all, many people were waiting for the last sentence!
"Next is the distribution of work points and food. Each family should send one person over to check whether their work points have been calculated correctly."
All the members cheered, pushed the laborers at home, and went to line up in front of Secretary He with a piece of paper!
In a family, everyone tacitly records how much work each person does every day in a notebook when they get home.
There are some cunning ones, like Cuihua's mother, who started shouting loudly when she saw the work points in Secretary He's notebook.
"That's not right. Look at what's written in our notebooks. Mine is clearly over 1,600 workers, and there's also Xu Qian's and Qin Zhiping's. None of this is right."
Secretary He had a dark face and kept calling the team leader of Ergou's mother's team.
The team leader was furious when he saw Ergou's mother making trouble. He put his hands on his waist and yelled, "Get your dog away... take a look!
For which day's work points did you not tick and put your fingerprints on them?
All of Qin Zhiping and Xu Qian’s work points before they married into your family were counted toward the educated youth site.
This is the work points I will receive after marrying into your family.
Don't talk nonsense here. You know very well how much you have secretly added to your own notebook.
You wrote ten jobs. Do you have the nerve to say ten jobs?
Your family's labor force can earn eight wages a day, but I'm going to eat pig shit!"
Secretary He: There is no need to be so radical...
Ergou's mother listened to the laughter around her and stomped her feet in anger, secretly cursing the young captain for not showing her any mercy!
She wanted to try to get more work points from Xu Qian and Qin Zhiping, but Ergou behind her pulled her back.
Ergou's mother could only reluctantly put her fingerprints on the notebook, cursing all the time, and went to queue up to get food.
Speaking of Ergou, he has become a completely different person since Xu Qian's death. He is no longer as lazy and thieving as before.
Even if you don't earn full work points a day, you should at least earn seven or eight work points.
Even though we occasionally don't see anyone, the villagers have gotten used to it.
As for Cuihua, she lined up alone and did not line up with her mother.
The reason is that ever since Qin Zhiping's death, Cuihua has never felt at ease holding the money given by the old lady of the Qin family.
Seeing her mother's eager eyes, she resolutely found Captain Lu to approve a piece of land for her...
