Zhao Lei has also been very busy these days, and suddenly received a call from Wang Quan, a little stunned. When Wang Quan explained the matter, his face became extremely complicated, he stretched out his hand and kneaded his eyebrows, and said helplessly: "Just because of this, if people don't want to work overtime, you can't fire people!"

"I don't need them at critical moments, and I raise them in my spare time? Do you really regard them as big masters? Or do you treat me here as a nursing home?"

Wang Quan complained very unhappily, and without waiting for Zhao Lei to answer, he said: "Leader, think about it, other employees are also family and small people, and people don't want to spend the New Year at home in peace?

Zhao Lei sighed silently and frowned, he could understand Wang Quan's indignation at this time, but he had to consider the impact of other aspects. After a moment of silence, he said in distress: "It's only been how long you've been working, and it's still the end of the year, you drove people away at this time, if they come over to make trouble, what will the leader think?" At this juncture, just about to breathe a sigh of relief, you made this happen, isn't this embarrassing to the leader!"

There was no Wang Quan's voice on the phone for a long time, and Zhao Lei lowered his voice and said: "Even if you want to drive them away, at least wait for the New Year." ”

Hearing Zhao Lei's last words, Wang Quan smiled softly. Zhao Lei's reaction was as expected by him, he dared to drive people away directly, and he was confident enough that the leader would definitely be able to distinguish which was more important.

Although Wang Quan's laughter was very light, it was still heard by Zhao Lei, and he immediately reprimanded angrily: "This is still a trained person, can you think more about the consequences of doing things?"

Wang Quan stopped talking, Zhao Lei said impatiently: "On the twenty-eighth day of the lunar month, there is an activity to comfort the lonely and widowed elderly, and the big leader personally leads the team. ”

Hearing Zhao Lei say this, Wang Quan immediately understood what he meant, and hurriedly said with a smile: "Okay, I'll take out the money that originally gave benefits to those people." ”

......

January 19, the twenty-sixth day of the lunar month.

The slaughterhouse contracted by the trading company has been completely suspended, and ordinary employees have returned to their hometowns for the New Year. Because of special circumstances, Wang Quan's slaughterhouse has not yet been closed, and the last batch of pigs will be slaughtered today.

It is already the twenty-sixth day of the lunar month, and the countryside has begun to catch up with the big market, every time at this time, the farmers will slaughter a batch of pigs by themselves, and pull them to the market to sell meat, so that they can make more money than selling pigs directly.

The pigs to be slaughtered today were sent by the members of the cooperative. The slaughterhouse only helps to slaughter, does not charge wages, and uses the offal to offset the slaughter costs, and the pig's head and trotters, which can be sold by simple processing, are still owned by the farmers.

Zhang Chenggang held a one-meter-long bamboo pole in his hand to patrol the slaughtering circle, and came to the last enclosure, Zhang Chenggang's eyes lit up, and he waved the bamboo pole to beat the fat pig lying on his stomach, and the frightened fat pig quickly stood up, hummed and chirped towards the corner of the pigsty, and looked at Zhang Chenggang with uneasy eyes, and could see the fat surging under the skin when he walked.

Zhang Chenggang has been dealing with pork all his life, so he can naturally see the good and the bad, nodded with satisfaction, turned his head to Liu Xiaofeng and said: "I haven't seen such a pure local pig for many years, looking at this size, I can't raise it so big without a year and a half." ”

Liu Xiaofeng helped Zhang Chenggang light a cigarette, and then replied with a smile: "It's still uncle's poisonous eyes, this was recovered after running many people in the ravine in the next county, and he has never been fed, if it weren't for the New Year, people really wouldn't sell it." Didn't you say last time that if you encounter this kind of pig, you will take it back and eat it ourselves, I thought of so many relatives on both sides, so I bought two and came back. ”

The two came out of the slaughtering circle, and the smile on Zhang Chenggang's face never broke, he just mentioned that the local pigs raised in the countryside a few years ago were delicious, and this kid wrote it down, which shows that he really has a heart. Looking at the farm tractors parked in the yard, he nodded with a smile and said, "These two ends are left for the last killing, and after their white strips are pulled away, we will divide the meat." ”

"Where's Wang Quan?"

Liu Xiaofeng asked in wonder, after slaughtering this batch of pigs, the slaughterhouse is about to go on vacation, and he, the boss, didn't show up?

"Xiao Shu did an examination today, and he went with him, and he estimated that he would be able to come over at noon. ”

In order to facilitate the distinction, the pigs sent by the farmers are put together separately, and after the pigs of the previous family are killed, the pigs of the next family will be sent to the slaughterhouse.

Watching the steaming white strips slide out along the tracks, the farmers have gathered around to help, take the white strips off the meat hook, spread them out in the tractor's body, and from time to time there are people to comment on the details that need to be paid attention to in the breeding process through the quality of pork.

"Look, it's still a high level of cattle breeding, and this meat looks beautiful. ”

What was just taken down was the pig sent by Cheng Erniu, looking at the red and white pork, the lean meat rate was obviously much better than that of the pigs raised on an ordinary scale.

Cheng Erniu smiled faintly, shook his head and said: "This has nothing to do with the level of breeding, the main thing is that the genes are good, and the money I spent two years ago to buy breeding pigs at a high price was not in vain." ”

As he spoke, his smile became a lot warmer, "With Mr. Wang's breeding pigs, everyone will be able to raise this kind of high-quality pigs in the future." ”

Cheng Erniu sent over twenty pigs today, and after all the white strips were loaded, he said goodbye to the farmers, jumped on the tractor, and drove home to prepare to go home.

Lowering the window and glancing at Cheng Erniu's tractor, Wang Quan couldn't help but nod and smiled: "Why kill this, it's enough to sell for a few days?"

Cheng Erniu hurriedly took out a cigarette from his pocket, handed it to Wang Quan, and said with a smile: "If it's fast, it's gone in one day, and it won't be more than two days at the latest." It's too much trouble to sell meat, and if it weren't for someone in the village who greeted me early, I wouldn't have been going to kill pigs this year. ”

"Okay, let's go back quickly!"

After parking the car, Liu Xianglan and Liu Guilan got out of the car from behind, as well as Wang Quan's concubine Sun Xiumei. After Wang Quan and Zhang Shu came down from the front, the group came to the office.

When Zhang Chenggang saw Liu Guilan, he called the eldest sister very enthusiastically, and asked them to sit down with tea and water. If Liu Guilan hadn't taken the initiative to come to the door, Zhang Shu and Wang Quan would not have been able to become a couple, and Zhang Chenggang has always remembered Liu Guilan's favor.

"Two more and you're done, twenty minutes at most. Let's rest for a while, and then we'll go over when the workers have it done. ”

As he spoke, he turned his head to Wang Quan and said, "The money for collecting the pigs, Zhang Shu's mother has already transferred it to Xiaofeng." ”

Twenty minutes passed quickly, and Liu Xiaofeng, who had been waiting in the workshop, called, saying that he had finished killing, and the group of women walked towards the workshop with a smile.

The fat that is close to four fingers thick is snow-white, and the pork around it is a small tremor when a little pressure is exerted, and it is gratifying to look at.

"The last time I saw such a fat pig, Izumi was not even ten years old, right? ”

Liu Guilan's face was slightly gloomy, and then she looked at Liu Xiaofeng, and said with a smiling face: "In the future, it will be up to you for our family to eat meat." ”

Liu Xiaofeng smiled and nodded, "Auntie, don't worry, every family in the ravine has a soil pig, when do you want to eat it tell me, I'll get it for you." ”

Waiting for the workers to bring the tools, Zhang Chenggang personally operated the division, and many years of craftsmanship were vividly displayed at this moment, seemingly casually under the knife, and then gently pulled, and the various parts were scattered.

"I want this piece of pork belly, and my two grandsons love braised pork. ”

Zhang Chenggang had just cut the pork here, and Liu Guilan was the first to speak. Miao Huijuan hurriedly grabbed her and persuaded with a smile: "The fat of the local pig is too thick, it is not suitable for braised pork, and it is not good for children to eat." ”

"If the eldest sister wants pork belly, the pig on the farm is more suitable, fat and thin without being greasy. There were two truckloads of pork outside that hadn't been pulled away, so I went to them and asked for one. ”

Without waiting for Liu Guilan to speak, Miao Huijuan trotted towards the tractor, and after a few words, a farmer Wang Quan didn't know came over with a fan of pork, and turned around and left.

Wang Quan hurriedly caught up with him, took out a wad of money from his wallet, counted out 2,500 yuan and handed it to the farmer, "It's all things waiting to be sold for money, how can you not give money." Take it!"

The farmer hurriedly shook his head, "Mr. Wang, they are all raised by themselves, and they don't need so much money." ”

took out five sheets and handed them to Wang Quan, and said, "There is a market in our village today, I have to go back quickly." ”

When Wang Quan returned to the workshop and stood beside Zhang Shu, he heard Zhang Shu muttering in a low voice: Where are the pig's trotters?

I didn't pay attention to it just now, but when I heard Zhang Shu muttering, Wang Quan looked carefully at the pork on the board, and sure enough, the pig's trotters were gone. I immediately understood in my heart that this must be Liu Xiaofeng who did not explain clearly to the workers, and the pig's trotters were unloaded by the workers.

Noticing the unhappiness hidden in Zhang Shu's eyes, Wang Quan hurriedly walked towards the workshop, found the location of the processed pig's trotters, and sure enough, he saw a few pig's trotters that were larger than normal pig's trotters, and quickly told the workers that these pig's trotters were eaten by themselves and let them deal with them a little cleaner.

When he turned around to leave, he thought of something again, and turned around and ordered: "Get a basket of cleaned pig's trotters from the cold storage and pull them out." ”

When the worker came out with a basket of pig's trotters, Zhang Shu's eyes lit up and gave Wang Quan a very satisfied look.

"The pig's head is sold out, and there are some pig's trotters left in the library, and each family takes some back and eats them for the New Year. ”

As soon as Wang Quan said this, Liu Xiaofeng hurriedly answered: "Does anyone want these two pigs' heads? If no one wants them, I'll take them back." ”

As she spoke, her eyes swept over the faces of several people present, Liu Guilan shook her head directly, Liu Xianglan hesitated and looked at Zhang Shu. Zhang Shu's eyes flickered, and the meaning was obvious.

Miao Huijuan noticed Liu Xianglan's actions, turned her head to look at Zhang Shu, and reprimanded viciously: "What did the doctor say today? According to your way of eating, you are the one who suffers when you give birth." ”

Zhang Shu hurriedly avoided Miao Huijuan's eyes, and secretly looked at Liu Xianglan, the grievances and pleading in her eyes were obvious. Liu Xianglan hesitated for a moment, and said with a smile: "Wang Quan's father also likes to eat pig's head meat, I want one, leave one for Xiaofeng." ”

Wang Quan didn't dare to speak on the side, he pouted secretly, he had never seen Wang Hongjun take the initiative to ask to eat pig's head meat since he was a child.

Two pigs, all of which were divided by several relatives, were not used up, and a whole fan of pork was left.

"Bring back a hind leg to my second uncle's house, and put the rest in my car, and I'll send it to Brother Dong. ”

After the workers finished cleaning the workshop, Wang Quan officially announced the holiday, and after repeating the start time, the workers began to go home.

Wang Quan took Zhang Shu to the breeding farm, left the pork, and asked what was missing, Dong Xin said that the materials for the New Year were ready.

"Let's go, let's have a meeting in the afternoon, the real annual meeting!"

Dong Xin didn't react for a while, and looked at Wang Quan suspiciously, "What is the real annual meeting?"

Wang Quan smiled and asked: "The workers' year-end bonuses have been issued, the year-end bonuses of the management and office staff have been issued this afternoon, and there is also the commission that was promised to you before." ”
