Chapter 15: Divide the Pork

Chapter 15: Divide the Pork

Thinking about dividing the meat, several men in the village who were good at slaughtering pigs quickly cooked the whole pig and put the pig's blood and offal in separate basins.

Shen Yuanxing reweighed the slaughtered pork. The meat yield of this wild boar was quite good. The gross weight of the pig was 512 kilograms, not counting the offal, so a total of 384 kilograms of meat was harvested.

What is surprising is that this wild boar is very fat, and the white fat under the skin is three fingers thick. If you take a piece of it home, you can not only enjoy meat, but also make a lot of meat oil. Even if you stew cabbage, just put a spoonful of it and you can taste the flavor of meat.

"Fellow villagers, this time the pigs produced a total of 384 kilograms of meat. One-fifth, which is 76.8 kilograms, was left for the Shen family, leaving 307.2 kilograms. There are now a total of 581 people in the village, so each person will get half a kilogram of meat."

"The remaining offal and pig blood are distributed to the elderly and families with newborns in the village. It can be regarded as a small subsidy from the village."

"If everyone has no objection, each family can send a representative to line up and we will divide the meat!" The brigade's accountant went to the town in the afternoon to pick up the educated youth who came to the countryside. The branch secretary temporarily acted as the accountant, constantly fiddling with the abacus in his hand.

Most of the lonely elderly people in the team are relatives of martyrs, and the villagers usually help them a lot. This time, they get more as a gesture of care.

"This meat is so delicious, it will make your mouth water!"

"There are 11 people in our family. We can share five and a half kilograms of meat this time. Let's be generous tomorrow and give the kids some delicious dumplings!"

"Stop talking, it makes me drool."

"Haha, look at what you have accomplished..."

When Accountant Hu from the village brought the educated youth to the threshing ground, they saw the whole village busy dividing the meat.

The table carried out from the brigade headquarters was filled with white pork, which dazzled the eyes of the group of people.

"Accountant Hu, what is going on?" Zhang Wan asked curiously as she looked at the lively scene late at night.

"I don't know. You guys wait here. I'll talk to the village chief and find a place for you to settle down."

Accountant Hu was also a little confused, so he could only calm down the group of educated youth. He walked to the center of the crowd, called out Shen Yuanxing, and went aside to discuss the matter.

"What do you think is going on? Wanyang Village is so wealthy, and it's not even time to slaughter pigs for the New Year!" Zhong Qing was also greatly shocked by this scene.

You have to know that they only have about 7 taels of meat coupons per person per month in the city, and when supplies are tight, they can't buy meat even with the meat coupons. Every day before dawn, there are people waiting at the door of the meat processing plant just to grab a few taels of pork.

"What's the use of guessing? Just go and ask and you'll know." Zheng Chenlong said as he was about to find someone in the crowd to ask, but suddenly he saw a beautiful figure walking towards him.

With the help of the hazy moonlight, Zheng Chenlong felt like he had fallen in love at first sight!

Wang Paner had been paying attention to this side. As soon as Accountant Hu left, she walked towards Duan Hongzhe and his group.

Today, Wang Paner dressed up specially in order to make a good impression on her future lover. In addition to wearing her best clothes, she also tied her hair into a bun and even used charcoal sticks to carefully draw her eyebrows, which was indeed eye-catching.

Wang Pan'er ignored Zheng Chenlong's burning gaze, walked in front of the crowd, and smiled gently, "You are the educated youth who came this time, right? Welcome to our Wanyang Village."

"My name is Wang Pan'er. If you have any difficulties in the village, you can come to me."

"That's great, Pan'er, we'll be friends from now on." Zhang Wan grabbed Wang Pan'er's hand and shook it familiarly, and Cao Yin nodded gratefully.

Perhaps the first kindness received in a strange place is always impressive. A group of people greeted Wang Paner warmly. Even Duan Hongzhe, who had been expressionless and suppressed his emotions all the way, couldn't help but have a good impression of this country girl.

Yes, country girl.

In Duan Hongzhe's opinion, even though Wang Paner looked good, her patched clothes and obviously rough skin made her look rustic.

When he decided to go to the countryside, he secretly made up his mind that he must not have anything to do with any woman in the village. He was going back to the city and could not let the mud-legged people hold him back.

Wang Pan'er did not see the hypocrisy behind Duan Hongzhe's smile, and was only immersed in the joy of meeting her sweetheart for the first time.

"By the way, Pan'er, why are you distributing meat in your village at this time?"

Wang Paner's smile froze, but she still spoke softly about how Old Man Shen had killed a wild boar and the villagers had divided the meat, which caused a series of exclamations.

"This is too amazing! One person can kill a 500-pound wild boar!"

"Everyone can get half a pound of meat. This is so happy!"

Duan Hongzhe immediately grasped the point and said with regret, "Does everyone in the village get half a pound of meat? Oh, we are unlucky. It would have been better if we had arrived in the village in the afternoon."

"Yes, there are five of us. We can get two and a half kilograms of meat in total. If we save it, it can last for nearly half a month!" Zhong Qing felt a little distressed when he thought about it.

Zheng Chenlong noticed that Wang Pan'er had been secretly looking at Duan Hongzhe, and felt a little sour in his heart. When he heard this, he wanted to show off in front of his sweetheart.

"What's so difficult about this? You guys are a bunch of cowards. I'm going to go find Accountant Hu and get our share of the meat back!"

"Hey, Zheng Chenlong, what are you doing? Come back soon!"

After Zheng Chenlong finished speaking, he walked towards Accountant Hu with a heroic and confident look. Cao Yin failed to catch him and stamped her feet in anxiety.

"Let's go and stop him. It's only the first day we're here, so don't let anything go wrong." A group of people hurriedly chased after him. Duan Hongzhe walked at the back with a meaningful smile on his face.

"Accountant Hu, we are here to help you build the countryside. We are also part of the village, right? Should we have a share of the meat?"

When Accountant Hu heard Zheng Chenlong's words, he felt his anger rising. He had just said a lot of good things about these educated youth to Shen Yuancheng, but he didn't expect to be exposed so quickly.

Originally, Wanyang Village had not arranged for educated youth to come and join the team, but they did not expect that the number of educated youth sent this time was much greater than previously agreed, so they were notified today to go to the town to pick them up.

However, due to the lack of preparation in advance, there was no suitable place to accommodate them for a while. There were vacant houses in the village, but they were all in disrepair and would definitely not be habitable if they were not cleaned up.

Accountant Hu was just discussing with Shen Yuancheng that they wanted families with vacant rooms in the village to help take in one or two people. The village would give them some work points as compensation and let them move out after the house was tidied up.

Zheng Chenlong's voice was not small. Accountant Hu and his companions happened to be standing not far from the meat distribution point, so as soon as he said this, the villagers who were distributing the meat all looked over at once.

"Where did this young man come from? He wants to share the meat right away. He is so shameless!"

"Why should we share it with them? We don't even have enough to eat ourselves. What a wishful thinking."

"That's right. They helped us build the countryside, but they wanted to take our meat without doing anything. If they really did some work, they would suck the blood of the whole village!"

As soon as Cao Yin and the others arrived, they heard the indignant condemnation of the surrounding villagers. Suddenly, their vision went dark. Oh no, they were still a step too late.

Duan Hongzhe frowned, thinking it was a mistake. He didn't expect Zheng Chenlong to be so useless that he couldn't even handle such a small matter.
