Looking at the two opponents in front of him, one donated three yuan and the other immediately donated four yuan, Jia Dongsheng thought about it and donated four yuan as well.
There was no way. Xu Damao and Sha Zhu earned less than him. If Jia Dongsheng donated less than them, he would inevitably be talked about by other people in the hospital. In this case, he could not donate more, nor could he donate less!
But Yan Fugui, who was keeping accounts, became happy at this time.
Repairing the house would cost fifteen to eighteen yuan in total, but Jia Dongsheng, Sha Zhu, and Xu Damao only paid ten yuan, which was beyond his expectation.
But it made him feel relieved, and he finally let go of the worry he had been having.
When all the donations were collected, the total donation amount for the entire hospital, excluding the three old men, was 14.60 yuan, which was a shortfall of 40 to 15 yuan. Even if the renovation really cost 18 yuan, the three old men would only need to contribute one yuan each, which was still within an acceptable range.
"It only requires a donation of about one dollar at most, not bad, hehe..." Yan Fugui's heart was already beaming with joy. There was nothing he could do. He originally thought he would have to donate two or three dollars, but now it's only one dollar. There was such a big gap, and he couldn't help but be unhappy. Of course, no matter how happy he was, one dollar was enough to make him feel distressed for a long time.
Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong were also a little surprised. They didn't expect that such a large amount of donations would be received this time. What should they, as the leaders, do?
Is it possible that one person only donated one dollar, which is less than what young people like Sha Zhu, Xu Damao and Jia Dongsheng can donate? This makes the three managers feel embarrassed.
But if you donate too much, it won’t be used up, right?
Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong exchanged a glance and exchanged a few words. Then Yi Zhonghai stepped forward and said loudly, "The total amount of donations this time is 14.60 yuan, not including the donations from me, the second uncle, and the third uncle."
"From this we can see that our hospital is very united."
"What the uncle said is right. Our compound is very united. If we maintain this unity, by the end of the year, the title of Outstanding Compound from the Subdistrict Office will definitely belong to our No. 95 Compound."
Liu Haizhong also continued, and the excellent compound he mentioned also lifted the spirits of the people in the compound.
This era is different from later generations. Due to economic development in later generations, people's selfishness has become more and more serious, and they all regard themselves as egoists.
But it was not like this in the 1960s. The atmosphere of that era was more simple, more selfless, and people took pride in collective honor.
And outstanding officials are born out of this kind of atmosphere and receive a very high spiritual reward.
Whether it is the residents who already live in the excellent compound or those who are looking for a house to live in, they are all proud of the excellent compound.
Among them, the evaluation of outstanding workers in each factory will also focus on whether they live in an excellent compound, which will add bonus points to their impression.
For those who are awarded the title of excellent compound, the street office will also give some actual rewards, such as some food and meat, which will be rewarded to the entire compound.
Therefore, when Liu Haizhong mentioned the excellent compound, those who had just felt a little distressed about donating money suddenly felt that the money was worth donating.
"That's right, Uncle One and Uncle Two are right. Our hospital has been honored as an outstanding hospital for five consecutive years. To continue to receive this honor, we need the efforts of all of us. Keep up the good work, everyone."
Yan Fugui felt that he didn't need to donate much money, so he immediately came out to show his presence and said a few words, otherwise he would be eliminated from this conference.
"With three uncles leading us, our school will definitely be the outstanding school this year."
Xu Damao responded with a smile.
"Da Mao is right. Under the leadership of the three uncles, our compound is developing better and better. The title of excellent compound will definitely belong to us."
"I don't know what the reward for the outstanding compound is this year. Will there be meat?"
"I don't know. Meat is very scarce this year. Apart from the little I get at the factory, I haven't been able to buy any meat at the market."
“Meat is becoming increasingly difficult to buy.”
"Let's go up the mountain on Sunday and see if we can catch some pheasants."
"Can we try it together?"
"Yes, yes."
“…”
At the beginning, they were still talking about the excellent compound, but the further back they went, the more remote the building became. However, Yi Zhonghai and others who had completed their mission did not care much.
"Old lady, you can stay at my house today. When the house is repaired, you can move back."
Yi Zhonghai came to the deaf old lady and said with a smile.
"well."
The deaf old lady is a very interesting person. She can hear anything that is beneficial to her, but she can't hear anything that is not beneficial to her or is irrelevant.
"Old man Jin, where have you been sleeping these days?"
Liu Haizhong looked at Old Man Jin. He also wanted to take him in for a few days like Yi Zhonghai did, but there were only two rooms in his house. His two sons slept in one room, and he and his wife slept in another. There was no place to accommodate Old Man Jin.
"I don't know."
Old Jintou looked a little pitiful. There was nothing he could do. He had to hope that someone would take him in for a few days, otherwise he would have to sleep on the street.
"Xu Damao, let Old Jintou sleep in your room. Your house has two rooms, so it's just right for Old Jintou to sleep in your room for two days."
When Liu Haizhong, Yi Zhonghai and Yan Fugui didn't know what to do with Lao Jintou, Sha Zhu stepped forward to help them solve the problem.
"Stay with me?"
Xu Damao was very reluctant in his heart, and he had no intention of taking care of others. However, as soon as Sha Zhu said this, everyone was looking at him, and he really couldn't say the words to refuse.
