020. Chef Guo
The sun is still so poisonous, the air is still dull, and in this kind of weather where the surface temperature is close to 50 degrees Celsius, even the brigade is not good enough to force the members to work.
The daily working hours are compressed to a very short time, just in the morning and in the afternoon, otherwise there is a risk of big problems.
It stands to reason that in this way, the members of the club can justifiably have more rest time, but in the Qiantoushan Brigade, no member of the club is willing to enjoy this benefit recently, and everyone braves the sun and the scorching heat to spontaneously flock to the Qingxi River.
What for?
Crayfish catch, of course!
Since the end of the last commune meeting, Guo Yongkun returned to the brigade and burned a pot of crayfish for the members to try, but everyone who has eaten it has not missed it.
In the words of some rough men - shit, there is still such a delicious thing in the world?!
It's not surprising, first of all, the crayfish is really delicious, and secondly, don't look at who is in charge.
The farmers who go to the countryside to farm and dump the soil, even if they get some good ingredients during the New Year's holidays, they are still in a hurry to stew in a pot, how can they taste this kind of compound taste that turns in their mouths thousands of times?
So they played scoundrels very bummerly, saying that they couldn't learn it, and it wouldn't be as delicious as Yongkun made after learning, so they simply let Yongkun take charge of it, and we were responsible for catching that crayfish and doing chores!
That's the good thing about the big collective.
No matter how unreasonable the demand is, as long as there are many people who agree to it, and the minority obeys the majority, then the brigade has to be arranged.
And after the brigade order came down, Guo Yongkun had to do it, otherwise, wouldn't he stand on the opposite side of the people?
These days, this kind of crime is not a joke.
But fortunately, after being promoted to Chef Guo, the previous labor tasks have nothing to do with him, and he is now only responsible for one thing every day - taking care of the five cauldrons that were temporarily erected on the small playground of the team site.
"Yongkun, one more, my stinky boy has a big appetite, and five of them are not enough to stuff his teeth......"
In addition to being in charge of cooking, Chef Guo is also responsible for serving dishes, so he still has some rights.
Who can't greet them with a smile when they see it now?
Some young people even shouted Brother Kun along Li Youguang.
Social status skyrocketed.
But then again, the members of Qiantoushan are also grateful to him in their hearts, after all, this year is too dry, like this, it is good to have porridge to drink, but what about them?
Eat meat at once!
It can be said that looking at the whole country now, it is not necessarily possible to find a brigade with better welfare than them.
It can be described as the envy of others.
Especially the other brigades of Hongyang Commune, every day they watched the members of Qiantou Mountain rush to Qingxi River to catch crayfish, and they didn't have some itching in private, but after taking it back, they hesitated to eat it, because their minds were full of Ye Dongwen's original warning, for fear that something would go wrong with eating.
That's more than worth the loss.
So I couldn't bear it anymore, and the first batch of "messengers" arrived, from Big Brother Sheep's Head Pass.
They sent someone to discuss with Zhao Fumin, wanting Guo Yongkun to go to their brigade and teach him the skills of making crayfish - so Guo Yongkun is now also a technician.
So what can be done?
Big Brother must give face, not to mention anything else, Big Brother also generously donated money during the Chinese New Year last year and borrowed them 3,800 catties of grain.
Zhao Fumin personally ordered, Guo Yongkun also went, enjoyed a VIP treatment, and deeply understood the meaning of the proverb "If you have a skill, you can serve a hundred jobs".
Soon after returning, the "messenger" of Xianglin Gang also arrived.
It's still the same, you have to go, Zhao Fumin doesn't know what happened in the five thousand catties of grain last year.
After returning, the third "messenger group" also arrived - Sanlijia.
However, they were quite self-aware, and they were not empty-handed, and there were 3,000 catties of millet with them.
In previous years, these 3,000 catties of millet may not be nothing, but this year, it can be of great use.
It's not that they're atmospheric, but they're smart, and they know that the millet is limited, but there seem to be more crayfish in the river, not to mention ...... That's meat!
A pound of meat in the belly is the same as a pound of rice in the stomach, can the strength be the same?
Although the croppers are not very good at settling accounts, they can still understand this point.
Zhao Fumin naturally couldn't resist, the members couldn't eat crayfish every day, and they were tired of eating too much.
So, Guo Yongkun was ordered to go again.
As a result, up to now, the entire commune has not sent a "mission" to invite people, only the Xialiwan brigade, which is closest to Qiantou Mountain.
Some members can't help but wonder, can they come, especially since it is not someone else who is in charge, but Chef Guo, last year their militia captain Liu Jinbao, but the loudspeaker blew loudly and threatened to break Chef Guo's dog legs?
Just when everyone was talking in private, the "messenger" of Xiali Bay finally came.
is not someone else, it is Brother Da Qiang, who has a little relationship with Guo Yongkun.
On the small playground of the brigade headquarters, five cauldrons were steaming, and Brother Daqiang's pestle fell to the ground on the side.
Guo Yongkun wore a blue cloth coat from the pig farm of the brigade, held an iron spoon in his hand, sat on the pony with Erlang's legs crossed, glanced at him, and asked, "Didn't eat?"
"No, the old branch secretary said that if you can't complete this task, you won't have anything to eat. Brother Da Qiang said pitifully.
Guo Yongkun smiled secretly, Old Man Liu is repeating his old tricks, and he wants to do this again.
Immediately, he got up and lifted the lid of a pot, scooped a spoonful from it, put it into a big bowl, and handed it to Brother Daqiang, "Oh, let's eat." ”
Brother Da Qiang was ecstatic in an instant, and quickly took it, thinking that this should be done, and nodded again and again, "Eh!"
Then he squatted on the ground and feasted on it, twisting his head and picking up his shell, which was no stranger, obviously not without research in private.
"I'll ...... This is also too fragrant, and it is really better than ...... Oh, it's okay, it's okay. ”
While eating, I was addicted to it.
It doesn't take much effort, and there are more than a dozen crayfish in a bowl, and the essence is solved, and it looks like it is still unfinished.
"Have you eaten well?" asked Guo Yongkun.
"Hmm. ”
"That's it. ”
"Huh?" Brother Da Qiang was stunned for a moment, and the expression on his face instantly stiffened.
"No, Guo Yongkun, aren't you going to come with me?"
"I said that?"
After scratching his head and thinking about it, Brother Daqiang couldn't help but smile awkwardly, as if he really didn't say it, and asked, "Then you just ...... Give me back what to eat?"
"I don't think you're pitiful, besides, you've done me a small favor before, so it's a bit of a tie. ”
"I helped you?"
Brother Da Qiang was puzzled.
"Guo Yongkun, Chef Guo, you can do it, you have taught the other brigades, why do you want us to do this...... Come with me!"
"Big brother, it's not that I'm not going. Guo Yongkun patted his head and said, "But don't dare, you Jinbao captain can say it, if you go to your brigade again, you will definitely break my dog's leg, my daughter-in-law hasn't married yet, do you want me to become lame?"
"No, no, no, this matter has already been turned over, if the old branch secretary sends it in person, it will be no problem for you to go again, I promise!"
"What's the use of your promises, what if? I think it's better to forget it. ”
"Don't forget it......" Brother Daqiang wanted to cry without tears.
"Let's go, let's go, the members of our brigade will be here soon, and you are not very safe here. ”
Brother Da Qiang begged for a while, but to no avail, so he could only turn around in frustration.
Looking at his back, the corners of Guo Yongkun's mouth hooked up a touch.
It's not that he puts up a fight, but as the old saying goes, the bell must be tied to the bell, whoever puts the cruel words, who will lick it back, and send a little minion over What's the matter?
It's also insincere.
Is he Guo Yongkun such a good talker?
......
Lower Liwan, Brigade Headquarters.
In a small room that can probably be called a conference room, several core cadres of the brigade are there.
After listening to Brother Daqiang's report, all the eyebrows were twisted together.
"This Guo Yongkun has also put up a stinky shelf!"
"Yes, when I borrowed grain last year, I received such a great favor from us, I don't know what to do!"
"If I want to say it, it's ungrateful......"
"Alright!" Liu Decheng interrupted them angrily.
A group of people really became more and more tasteful the more they talked, who received whom's favor in the end, didn't he count it in his heart?
Just because of listening to Guo Yongkun's way of making money, their brigade has shipped out four batches of bamboo from the beginning of the year to the present, earning seven or eight hundred yuan!
"I think the key to this is Jinbao, after all, some words were too cruel at the beginning, and people felt a little pimple in their hearts, which is also normal. ”
In Liu Decheng's words, everyone agreed, and then looked at Liu Jinbao together.
made Liu Jinbao very depressed, yes, he did put the cruel words, but there was a reason, it was Guo Yongkun's kid who made them bad first five times.
Now, do you want him to apologize to that cunning guy?
He can't do this to death!
"Old branch secretary, don't we still have some surplus grain, and we also have money, and even if the early rice dies of drought, there are still melons and fruits in the self-kept field, do we have to eat this crayfish?"
"Yes!"
Liu Decheng said angrily: "Just that little bit of surplus grain, that bit of money, and the melons and fruits of the self-reserved land, how long can it last? Seeing that the sky is getting drier and drier, if you can't even grow the second crop of rice, then what will the members of the club take to make a living in the second half of the year? Besides, this thing is still meat, can you grow meat by planting the land and pouring the soil, and see how thin the members have become and how long they haven't touched the meat?"
Liu Jinbao was speechless for an instant, he didn't think so far, and he didn't think about it so carefully.
"Jinbao, let me ask you, is it the importance of individual face or the interests of the collective?" Liu Decheng had a serious expression.
Liu Jinbao smiled bitterly, but didn't think much about it, and said: "The interests of the collective are important. ”
"Okay, since you have this understanding, I won't say anything else, what to do next, you can weigh it yourself. Adjourn the meeting. ”
