At the end of the year, the work of the production team was mainly concentrated in a few places such as the chicken shed, and the dryer in the old canteen was busy all day.

The members of the club hope to do more work and earn more work, which is usually the least popular manure, and many people are vying for it.

As for easier jobs such as herding cattle, it is often necessary for people to break their heads.

There are three cows in the fourth team, and they are all young, and two cows have also been born, but the calves have not survived.

It's just that everyone didn't expect that one of the old scalpers would die of such old age.

In those days, the cattle were a very important asset, and the brigade could not slaughter them at will, and the death of the cattle had to be reported to the commune.

The members of the club all knew about this, and when they saw that the old cow was dead, many old people immediately turned red.

Especially the old people who often raise these cattle are even more crying.

Qiao Jiayue also felt uncomfortable, after seeing the eyes of so many animals, she felt that the eyes of scalpers were the most gentle and kind.

Staring at their big eyes, Qiao Jiayue felt that her heart was about to soften.

Qiao's father sighed, made a certificate with the brigade, and asked the members to carry the dead old cattle onto the tractor and send them to the commune.

Yes, even old and dead ploughing cattle, their brigade could not be disposed of at will, they had to be sent to the commune, which was arranged.

As soon as the commune arranged, after the old cow was disposed of, it was directly sent to several big cities.

The members couldn't even see a single hair.

As soon as the cow was delivered to the commune, it can be said that it caused a small internal earthquake, and many people stared at it.

Liu Dongyang hurriedly came, looked at the dead cow sent by Qiao's father, and looked happy.

He patted Qiao's father on the shoulder, "How did this cow die?"

Beef is a rare thing, and after processing, only those leading cadres of factories and organizations in Quanshi can eat it.

"Old dead. Qiao's father said lightly, not sad or happy, after all, the production team has a large amount of labor, even if it is an old scalper, it can't bear it.

"Well, it's okay. Liu Dongyang asked again, "This cow has to be dealt with immediately, do you have any parts you want, I will keep a little for you." ”

Father Qiao shook his head, "Forget it, after all, we raised it ourselves, and we can't bear it." ”

And the taste of beef is big, the children have not eaten it, and they may not dare to eat it, so forget it.

"That's a pity, this beef is a warm ingredient, all year round, if you are not lucky, you can't buy it. ”

Many years ago, there were still beef cattle slaughtered in Gongqiao Commune, but now after so many years, I am afraid that the cattle breed has not been left.

Father Qiao smiled, for the members, beef is not as good as lard.

"Do you have any other tasks for the supply and marketing cooperatives recently?" Father Qiao poured himself a cup of tea.

"It's not the same as before, just some pork, eggs, live chickens and ducks, etc. Liu Dongyang arranged for someone to deal with the scalper, and when he came back, he sat down on a chair and rubbed the back of his sore neck.

"This year's supply and marketing cooperatives have more things than last year, do you want to bring some to your brigade?"

The people of the Alpine Brigade are relatively wealthy, and they are more willing to buy things.

"Just buy it for someone, is there anything new? I'll buy some for a few kids. ”

"In addition to canned food, it's some new styles of really good shirts. ”

"......" Qiao's father was a little speechless, "In this winter, what do you buy good clothes, and there is no wool?"

"Yo, that's a rare thing, it's not our turn to be a small supply and marketing cooperative. Liu Dongyang sighed, "If you want, I'll ask Sunshine to help get some for you." ”

"That's it, Sunshine better don't abuse his power, I'll ask my friends in Haishi to help buy some and send them over. "Recently, the city has been unstable, and Xu Yangyang's position is not known if he can sit firmly.

"It's good that you have friends in Haishi, and you can ask them to buy things at any time. "The key is that these friends will not push back, and they will care about a little profit, which is very rare.

Liu Dongyang sighed a little, as far as he knew, many people in the city were stingy, and they didn't look down on the countrymen very much.

"The things in your brigade are good, but the amount is too small, especially the bamboo rat, which is still quite popular in the city. ”

There are only three teams of bamboo rats raised, and because of technical problems, the output has not reached the highest.

"Bamboo rats are tastier than rabbits, but they are not so easy to raise, there are only three teams in raising, and the other teams are impatient to toss. ”

With that kind of effort, it is better to do other simpler side hustles.

Liu Dongyang narrowed his eyes, "Last time, the third team took some dried insects, saying that they were bamboo insects, and the supply and marketing cooperatives confiscated them. ”

Father Qiao couldn't help but laugh when he heard this, he knew that the three teams had a big trouble at that time.

The person who insisted on raising bamboo insects was Lan Liru, and in the end she couldn't sell it, and everyone was complaining about her.

Lan Liru was also angry, she grinded the dried bamboo worms into powder, added sweet potato powder, and finch wheat flour to steam the steamed buns, and the result tasted very good, and there was a smell of meat!

Qiao Zhenghuo consciously lost face because of the bamboo insects, and quarreled with Lan Liru, and now seeing that she made this food, he took it out again to show off.

Therefore, the whole brigade knew.

The taste of sweet potato and wheat buns is actually very ordinary, but after adding bamboo insect powder, the taste seems to have risen several levels.

Now the people of the other production teams want bamboo insects, and they have to buy them from the third team, and for this reason, Qiao Zhenghuo is very proud for a while.

Qiao's father told Liu Dongyang about this with a smile, "That bamboo insect is very popular in our brigade, don't look scary at that thing, it actually tastes very good." ”

Liu Dongyang was a little surprised, "Really, then next time I'll ask the people of your three teams to try it out." ”

If you can't eat meat, it's okay to taste some meat to satisfy your cravings.

Qiao's father smiled and didn't speak, in the years of famine, everything was eaten, so the countryside didn't think there was anything wrong with eating insects.

It was only when some people in the city ate the supply that they felt that the insects were scary. You must know that those supplies were handed over from the mouths of old farmers in the countryside back then.

Besides, the three teams now have their own development rhythm, which is good, and Qiao's father knows that this is all led by Lan Liru.

He guessed that she might have had some adventure, and suddenly understood something, but as long as Lan Liru kept to herself and took care of Qiao Zhenghuo, he didn't want to pursue it.

Qiao's father came back from the commune, and in the end, the old cow still exchanged some money and tickets, and he held a meeting of the members of the four teams, one of which was to buy cattle.

The three ploughing oxen were already very tired, and now that there were only two left, they had to buy back at least two more oxen, and wait until the spring ploughing, so that both people and cattle would be more relaxed.

But the price of cattle is not cheap, and the money must be paid by the production team.

Therefore, this year-end dividend, a certain percentage of the money on the book must be withdrawn for other purposes of the production team.

The members of the club also know the importance of ploughing cattle, and basically have no opinion.
