After Cuihua's mother's commotion, many smart people secretly put away their notebooks.
When it was Lu Zhiye and Wen Sihe's turn, Secretary He stared at the work points on the notebook with his eyes almost popping out.
Lu Zhiye didn't say anything. He had always been so capable. This, this little Wen educated youth.
He picked up the pen and notebook on the table and started to calculate carefully again, and also pulled the team leader next to him to calculate with him.
"In the first five months of this year, Xiao Wen, an educated youth, was ranked among the eight female workers and received full work points.
In the next two and a half months, the autumn harvest was full of ten work points. Excluding those who took leave, the total was 1,710 work points.
Add to that the work points from last year’s autumn harvest, 450, for a total of 2,160 work points.”
Secretary He's words made many people swallow their saliva. Wow, this is almost as much as the work points of a strong laborer.
Even if Lu Zhiye counted all the employees, excluding those who took leave, he only had 2,400 employees.
Many people's eyes were full of envy: "This year, Xiao Wen and Lu Zhiye can get a lot of food."
"Who said that this young educated youth Wen was incompetent at first glance?"
"Yes, yes, if we knew she was so capable, we would have let our son marry her long ago."
"Come on, your son has so little flesh and his front teeth take up half of his mouth, and you think he's ok."
For a moment, many villagers looked at the two people with different expressions.
Secretary He pointed at the papers in front of the two people and said, "Check your work points to see if they are correct. If there is no problem, sign and stamp your handprint, and then go over there to collect the food."
Lu Zhiye took a quick look and found no problem, so he put his fingerprints on the food. The couple then went to collect the food amid the envious and jealous gazes of the crowd.
The total work points for the two of them were 4,560. This year, Dahe Village was not an advanced brigade, so everyone's work points were calculated to be eight cents per work point.
Lu Zhiye asked in a low voice: "We want half money and half food?"
"Half the food is too much. Please ask for more money. If it's not enough, you can go to the brigade headquarters to buy more."
Wen Sihe thought of Li Guihua's words and quietly offered his own suggestions.
Originally, Lu Zhiye wanted to say that as long as he was here, no thieves would dare to come.
But then he thought, they lived far away from the village, and he would have to go out every few days in the future.
It was too conspicuous for Wen Sihe to be alone at home guarding so much food.
Who knows, it might be some blind person who sneaked into their home.
So Lu Zhiye nodded and agreed with Wen Sihe's words.
Most of the work points were converted into money. After thinking for a moment, he spoke to Captain Landing in front of everyone.
"Captain, I need so much food at once, and I'm not comfortable keeping it at home.
I'll leave some money with you. If you run out of food, you can just take the money away."
Captain Lu widened his eyes in surprise. What does that mean?
Lu Zhiye: What does that mean? Risk transfer!
He will be going out in a while. Although he put the money in a space where no one can find it, other people don't know about it.
With so much food and money being received at once, there's no guarantee that someone might have some bad intentions.
Captain Lu: You are noble and capable, but you are using me as a target to transfer risks!
Lu Zhiye's proposal was recognized by many people, especially the female educated youth in several educated youth sites.
Wu Yu smiled brightly, and approached the captain and said, "Captain, can I also deposit my food in our team headquarters?
You see, we have divided the food, but it is not safe to keep it in the house, as we are girls."
Captain Lu was silent for a while before he nodded and agreed.
The granary of the brigade headquarters is guarded by village militiamen every day.
The captain felt at ease leaving it here, and what's more, Captain Lu had one more thing to consider.
Although the harvests in those brigades are good this year, every household borrowed a lot of grain last year.
After the food was distributed, except for what was returned to others and enough for strong laborers, what was left?
When people are forced into a desperate situation, they start to have more dirty thoughts.
Although there were many educated youth in this group, none of them were good at working and they did not have the vigilance to do so.
If the food was stolen, he, the team leader, would be the one to suffer.
Alas, when you become a high-ranking official, you have to think a lot. Captain Lu looked up at the sky in silence.
Now everyone in the village knew that Lu Zhiye and his fellow educated youth had stored their food at the brigade headquarters.
Some people also secretly gave up their thoughts.
In a blink of an eye, it was time to collect the plows again. Lu Yongtian came hurriedly to call Lu Zhiye at daybreak.
"Brother Ye, Brother Ye, we have to hurry up. I heard that a lot of pears were harvested by several factories in the county this year, and there aren't many left.
If you go too late, you will miss it.”
Our winter fruit snacks all depend on these little things.
So as soon as Lu Zhiye was pulled onto the tractor by Lu Yong, several pieces of paper were stuffed into his hands.
The lady in the green headscarf held up the paper and shouted, "Dayong, Dayong, this is the number of pears that our families want. You don't need to count them. Let's go now."
Lu Yong quickly took it, opened it, and exclaimed: "Oh, auntie, you guys ordered quite a lot this year."
Several aunts scratched their heads in embarrassment and said, "The harvest is good this year, buy more so that the whole family can have a bite."
"Okay, aunties, please make way. We have to go quickly."
The crowd surrounding the tractor hurriedly dispersed, waving their hands to tell a few people to leave quickly.
Lu Yong and Lu Zhiye's family sat on both sides of the tractor, and Lu Chuan shook the tractor vigorously.
There were a few young men sitting in the back of the truck, and each of them had a smile on his face.
The tractor rumbled all the way to Dali Village. Lu Yong was shocked when he saw it from his position on the tractor.
"Wow, so many people, are they all here to pick pears? This is much more than in previous years."
At first glance, there was a large group of people, some pushing carts, and some driving tractors.
They were all waiting at the entrance of the Pear Garden. Lu Zhiye had good eyesight and could see from a distance that several cadres were standing at the entrance, their mouths almost reaching their belts.
"Auntie, why are there so many people here?"
Dachao jumped out of the car and walked up to the lady in the queue in front and asked.
The old lady was chewing on a dry biscuit in her hand. She was startled by someone shouting at her and the biscuit got stuck in her throat and she couldn't swallow it.
He was choking and rolling his eyes, which scared Dachao.
He quickly ran to the car, got his water bottle, held the old lady's mouth and poured the water into it.
Lu Zhiye:............
Lu Yong:........
Auntie: ...There's no need to be so violent.
The old lady patted Dachao's arm with great effort, then took the kettle tremblingly and drank the water in small sips.
Finally I have recovered from the stress.
