More than ten minutes later, the voting officially began.
The Song family and the Tian family naturally supported their own family unconditionally and voted in favor.
Country people are good at farming, but they rarely have their own subjective ideas. Once someone takes the lead, they will naturally follow and agree.
Smiles slowly appeared on Song Dahai and Tian Youliang's faces.
As long as everyone in the team works together, this thing can be accomplished.
Just then, an accident happened.
People started voting against it, not just one person, but dozens of people.
Tian Youliang narrowed his eyes and said, "They are all from the same group."
Tian Dawei, who was in charge of counting the votes, said, "One group of 36 households, all voted against it."
Song Dahai walked directly to the team leader and asked, "What's going on with you guys?"
The team leader hesitated and said nothing.
A middle-aged man nearby snorted and said, "Our entire group is against repairing the diesel engine. Even if you finally decide to repair it, don't expect us to contribute."
Song Dahai recognized that the person who was speaking was a notorious second-rate guy who was in his thirties and still hadn't married. He just hung out all day.
Song Dahai said coldly: "This is a collective matter of our Xiaojing Brigade. The minority must obey the majority. The diesel engine must be repaired!"
"You guys fix it if you want. It has nothing to do with our group!"
"Anyway, we won't pay, so don't even think about touching our fish. And don't even think about deducting our work points at the end of the year, or I'll go to the commune and sue you, the team leader!"
Tian Youliang was furious: "If you don't pay, forget about using the diesel engine!"
The second-rate guy sneered: "The diesel engine belongs to our entire brigade. Why can't we use it just because you say we can't use it?"
Song Dahai and Tian Youliang were so angry that they wanted to fight.
This group of people are unwilling to pay the money but insist on spending it. They are so shameless.
Jiang Wanyue hurried forward: "Dad, Uncle Tian."
It is normal to have opposition when doing anything. To some extent, the voices of opposition are also a kind of spur.
She looked at the group and said, "You are right. The diesel engine was assigned to the commune by the state, and distributed to the brigade by the commune. Regardless of whether you contributed or not, as long as the diesel engine is repaired, you are eligible to use it."
The second-rate guy looked at Jiang Wanyue, smiled and said: "You are right, little girl. Which village are you from? What's your name? Why haven't I seen you before..."
When Zhou Xiugui heard this, her face suddenly darkened. She walked forward and protected Jiang Wanyue behind her. If it wasn't the wrong occasion, she would have stepped forward to scratch her.
Jiang Wanyue continued: "Since your group objects, you can leave now."
The team leader of one group stammered, "Who is she? Is she keeping her word? We are leaving now. Can we still use the diesel engine in the future?"
Tian Youliang said nothing.
Song Dahai paused and said, "Of course her words count. If she says you can use it, then you can use it. Don't be an eyesore here, get out of here!"
One group of people got the correct information and left happily.
The remaining seven groups all showed hesitation on their faces. Since they could use the diesel engine without spending money or fishing, then they...
Jiang Wanyue looked at everyone and said, "The money from selling fish will not only be used to repair the diesel engine, but also be distributed to everyone at the end of the year, but Group 1 will not get any."
The team leader of group three couldn't help but ask, "How can you be so sure that the fish can be sold?"
Team leader of Group 4: "Besides, if the higher-ups investigate, we'll all be finished."
Team leader of Group 5: "Is this reliable?"
The leader of Group 6 said: "Or we can ask them to allocate another diesel engine."
Team leader of Group 7: "Do you think diesel engines are easy to come by?"
A group of people started chattering.
"Quiet." Jiang Wanyue spoke each word with emphasis. "We only have one option now, and that is to sell the fish, no matter what means."
Song Dahai gave her the strongest support and said loudly: "If anything happens, I, the team leader, will bear the responsibility together with the branch secretary. It has nothing to do with you villagers!"
Tian Youliang said, "If the primary school was successful in selling fish, we will definitely be successful too. If we sell all of them, we will have a lot left over after paying for the diesel engine repairs. We can share the profits with everyone then!"
When he said this, Tian Youliang felt very weak.
It is still unknown whether the fish can be sold, but he still dares to brag about dividends. Even he himself feels that this pie in the sky is too fake.
The villagers gradually calmed down, and after the matter was settled, they all dispersed.
Only a few core figures stayed behind to discuss how to sell the fish, where to sell it, and who should sell it.
"I can only ask Principal Zheng for help." Tian Youliang looked at Principal Zheng, "You have experience and know how to negotiate. The team will give this task to you!"
Principal Zheng shook his head like a rattle: "No, I have no experience. The fish we were able to sell before were all thanks to Teacher Xiao Jiang. It would be best if she went."
"Teacher Xiao Jiang?" Accountant Zhao Xiangyang turned his head, his face full of disbelief. He had heard about the captain's daughter-in-law jumping into the river before. Isn't Teacher Xiao Jiang the captain's fourth daughter-in-law? How could a person who has no desire to survive know how to sell fish? What a joke!
Others had similar thoughts.
Tian Youliang spoke again: "Principal Zheng, there is no need to be modest. This is the business of our entire team. Since you have made great efforts, the team will commend you and give you more pork at the end of the year..."
"No, how did you get to the meat division..." Principal Zheng stroked his not-so-thick hair, "I'm really not being modest. I can teach, but I can't do anything else. Since this matter was proposed by Teacher Xiao Jiang, please trust her."
