Chapter 48 Paying Public Grain



Wen Sihe had already made an agreement with Ji Zhiqing that she and Wu Yu would stay in her house for the next few days, and they would give her a pound of food as compensation.

Wen Sihe was very satisfied with this method of settling payments in exchange for goods.

The jiānjīn’s room was very clean and the kang was big enough to sleep three or four people.

She pasted newspapers near the head of the kang and placed a cabinet on the kang, which contained some small items for daily use for easy access.

Wu Yu did not hide his admiration at all: "Ji Zhiqing, your room is so clean. I want to build two cabinets, one on the bed, so that I can get food at night!"

Ji Nian looked cold and smiled faintly: "Another educated youth taught me this. You can also build a stove at the door, so you don't have to eat from the same pot as others. It will also be convenient during the winter."

Wen Sihe's eyes lit up, as this was exactly what he meant.

She hurried out and told Lu Zhiye her thoughts.

"Lu Zhiye, I want to build a stove in the house so I don't have to go out in the cold.

Please help me build a platform so I can put some pots and pans on it."

Lu Zhiye glanced at her sideways. She said it lightly without even thinking about whether he was willing to do it!

Wen Sihe clasped her hands together and blinked her big eyes: "Please!"

Lu Zhiye said with a cold face: "Got it!"

But I cursed in my heart: It turns out that beautiful women are the best at seducing people! I clearly wanted to say that I can't do it, but how did it become "I know"?

He wanted to blow his own mouth. Let you be faster than your brain!

To build the cabinet, Wen Sihe did not ask anyone else but begged Lu Zhiye for help.

Lu Zhiye wanted to refuse every time, but once he met those watery eyes, his mouth agreed faster than his brain.

Lu Zhiye was annoyed!

This vixen must have cast some kind of spell on me!

The kang in the room needs to be dried after it is built.

The village was also busy. Captain Lu was afraid that the wheat that had been harvested earlier would get moldy, so he took it out to dry.

Judging from the time, other teams are almost done harvesting.

As soon as the commune issued the order, the public grain could be paid.

Captain Lu arranged for people to dry the best wheat.

He rode his bicycle to the commune to get sacks.

There are about 500 people and 70 households in Dahe Village.

There is a lot of cultivated land. The brigade has 1,400 acres of land. Excluding homesteads, private plots, roads and ditches, the cultivated land area is about 1,200 acres.

This year's wheat production is lower than in previous years, only about 420 kilograms, but it is still a lot.

Generally, a harvest of more than 400 kilograms is considered a good harvest.

The yield of rice per mu is slightly higher than that of wheat, at 710 per mu.

The corn production this year is about 700 kilograms, which is a significant decrease compared to last year.

But he is also ranked among the best in the entire commune.

This year their brigade planted 400 acres of wheat, 600 acres of rice, and 200 acres of corn.

The wheat output was 168,000 catties, the rice output was 426,000 catties, and the corn output was 140,000 catties.

At this time, the public grain payment required was 25% of the per-acre yield, and 15% of the surplus grain.

A total of forty percent.

In order to become an advanced brigade, many brigades would falsely report their production volume, resulting in the actual amount of public grain paid accounting for about 50% to 60%.

This year, Dahe Village is far ahead in mass production, so the team leader reported it truthfully.

According to the calculations of Party Secretary He, their village had to pay 64,200 kilograms of wheat and 170,400 kilograms of rice this year.

The corn to be delivered is 56,000 kilograms.

Because the rice has to be of good quality and husked, the overall rice harvest in their village will be greatly reduced.

The team leader rode his bicycle very fast and arrived at the commune. At the gate, he met several other team leaders. Some of them looked worried, while others looked very proud.

Everyone came to collect sacks. They first registered their yield per mu and the sacks they wanted.

Then take the note to the Finance Management Department to get it stamped.

The team leader of Daba Village kept silent. When he glanced at the per-acre yield registered by Team Leader Lu, he suddenly became angry and filled with regret.

After writing the note, Captain Lu also took a look at Damu Village. This look was so shocking that his eyes almost popped out.

He exclaimed in disbelief: "Your wheat yield per acre is 400? Your rice yield per acre is 650?"

The other captains also looked surprised.

Several brigades that also did not harvest early were hesitating whether to report their per-acre yield higher.

This is probably the number when the production is good.

As far as they know, Dam Village and several brigades did not harvest grain in advance, so a reduction in production is certain.

The captain of Dam Village must have made a false report.

Captain Lu also realized that he was too surprised, and lowered his voice and said, "Old Liu, don't blame me for not reminding you. Think about the consequences of falsely reporting such a high number!"

Liu, the captain of Daba Village, blushed and said with his neck stiff, "Our village has a good harvest this year, that's all!"

Seeing that he could not persuade them, Captain Lu stopped talking and went to the Finance Management Department first.

Captain Liu was walking at the end. After hesitating for a long time, he quietly changed the price of wheat to three hundred, rice to six hundred, and corn to six hundred.

Even so, the figures are a lot higher. The wheat output of their village this year is only over 200, and the rice output is over 400. The corn output is better, at over 600.

When Captain Lu arrived at the Financial Management Section, he did not expect that Secretary Wang was also sitting there.

"You guys are here? Come and see this year's harvest."

Secretary Wang took a sip of tea and spoke slowly.
