After everyone had paid their public grain tax, it was time to distribute the grain. Secretary He held a thick notebook and all the members sat in the large square to hold a meeting.
Secretary He patted the microphone and reported the amount of public grain paid this year and the amount of grain purchased by the state.
"This year, our Dahe Village has a good harvest! This is inseparable from the hard work of many members!"
Secretary He spoke in an official tone and everyone applauded.
"Excluding the seed grain and feed grain for next year, a total of 50,000 catties are reserved, and there is also the three-pronged and five-unified unified funds, and the village-level funds, which amount to 80,000 catties. A total of 300,000 catties are left."
Everyone cheered!
Secretary He raised his hand and signaled everyone to be quiet.
"Our commune distributes the labor according to the ratio of six labors to four labors per person. 180,000 catties out of 300,000 catties are distributed according to the number of people.
The remaining 120,000 kilograms were used as work points and grain.
There are 500 people in our village, including men, women, old and young.
Each person will be given 360 kilograms of food!
The rest lined up according to their work points and checked whether their work points were calculated correctly. How much grain should be distributed! "
Every household lined up, and since Lu Zhiye was alone, he naturally lined up with the other educated youth.
There are 500 people in Dahe Village. Excluding the elderly and children who cannot work, there are still about 400 people.
Secretary He worked up several late nights before he was paid 1.1 cent per day.
Lu Zhiye was one of those people who earned a lot of work points and received a lot of grain.
From April to October, Lu Zhiye earned a total of 2,280 wages.
During the wheat harvest period, he earned twenty-four wages a day.
Lu Zhiye calculated that he could get another 250 kilograms of grain from the work points he earned. The few taels of grain he earned were all put into the seeds, which was almost unspoken by everyone.
A strong laborer has to work all year round and eat quickly, and he can barely keep from going hungry with 600 kilograms of food.
In order not to attract attention, Lu Zhiye asked for 200 kilograms of food and 50 yuan.
If they cannot finish eating the food, such as if there are many children in the family and they cannot eat so much food, they can sell the excess food to the production team, and the production team will hand it over to the commune in exchange for money.
For example, Daniu's family has three children in total and they cannot eat so much food. They have many laborers and earn a lot, but the family only has the necessary food rations.
He actually asked for almost two hundred dollars.
Those educated youth were not so lucky. Usually, the male educated youth could get seven or eight jobs at most, and it was common for female educated youth to get five or six jobs.
Even if work points are valuable, they won’t give you much food.
Give more coarse grains and less fine grains, and most people choose coarse grains.
The state will give farmers some money when it buys grain today, which is considered as buying the surplus grain in the hands of members at a fair price.
This money can only be given to the members after the state allocates funds to the commune.
Each family can get about 20 to 30 yuan.
Big Cow’s mother, also known as the green-headed lady, was in a good mood today. She waved her hand and gave Big Cow and Little Cow a dime: “Use this to buy some candy!”
For a moment, all the children in the village surrounded their parents, shouting for candy.
Lu Zhiye delivered the grain back home. The tung oil on the cabinets in the yard was almost dry.
He pressed lightly and could hardly feel the greasiness. He called out to Wen Sihe and said that she could come and move it.
Wen Sihe and his friends just arrived this year and cannot participate in the grain distribution.
I was sitting in the room tidying up the bedside when I suddenly heard Lu Zhiye's voice and hurried out the back door.
"Your cabinet is ready. Put it in the house. It's been cloudy for a few days, so the kang should be dry. Go back up the mountain and pick up some firewood to burn it!"
Lu Zhiye's voice was low and as pleasant as the sound of a cello, which made Wen Sihe's heart pound.
It was the first time she heard Lu Zhiye talk so much.
"I can't move it either, can you help me?"
The voice is unique to girls, soft and delicate, especially Wen Sihe who deliberately spoke in a slimy voice.
This made Lu Zhiye's throat tighten slightly.
He frowned: "Can't move it?"
Ha! You are such a deceitful little thing. You can carry more than 100 kilograms of soil in one hand. How can you not move a cabinet weighing only 10 kilograms?
Wen Sihe saw that he didn't move for a long time and thought that the cool male supporting role Lu Zhiye didn't agree, so she pouted and prepared to take action herself.
However, Lu Zhiye was one step faster than her. He picked up the cabinet and walked towards the educated youth point.
The young man's strong and powerful arms easily lifted the two cabinets. Some beads of sweat slid down his forehead. His whole body exuded the smell of sweat and a slight smell of cigarettes.
Wen Sihe thought, does this old man from the seventies also smoke all the time?
After moving all the cabinets into Wen Sihe's room, Lu Zhiye subconsciously looked around the room.
The originally dilapidated windows have been repaired, and the walls around the kang are covered with newspapers to prevent dirt from falling.
The house was spotlessly clean.
Lu Zhiye thought about his own house. Apart from the fact that there was no newspaper pasted on it, there was no difference between the two.
Why does this young woman’s house look…
Yes, it's warm! Yes, it's warm!
In such a comparison, Lu Zhiye felt that his house was empty.
Thinking about what was missing in his room, Lu Zhiye strode out.
After he left, Wen Sihe picked up the two cabinets effortlessly and walked towards Wu Yu's room.
There was no one in Wu Yu's room. When she heard that food was to be distributed, she went to join in the fun.
Wen Sihe picked up the key, opened the door, and put the cabinets in order for her one by one.
Then he went to tidy up his own closet.
After Lu Zhiye returned home, he also picked up some old newspapers and pasted them around his room, imitating the look of Wen Sihe's room.
But when I took a look from the door, I still felt something was wrong.
"Knock knock knock!" There was a knock on the door. Lu Zhiye frowned. Who is it?
