Everyone was almost caught, Qiao Yibing waited until the evening to ring the big bell in the center of the village, and the members gathered to the ancestral hall one after another, waiting in fear.

This scene is very familiar, and the adults know what it is for, so they don't look good, and they want the children to go back first.

Qiao Yibing stood on the steps and described to the members below the extent of the damage caused by the hailstorm and the serious consequences of not being able to complete the summer grain task.

If you can't even pay the public grain, let alone sell the surplus grain, then the entire Gaoshan Brigade will have to owe money to the commune, year after year, and the days will become more and more miserable.

"Captain Chen has already gone to the commune to report the disaster and apply for a reduction or exemption of summer grain, and the commune will definitely send cadres down to investigate. ”

"You say, when the cadres of the people came to the fields of our brigade, they saw that they were clean, and there was not even a single ear or stalk of rice, who would believe that we had suffered a disaster?"

"Besides, the ears of rice and rice stalks in the field are the property of the brigade, and picking them up and taking them home without permission is embezzling the property of the brigade and digging up the corners of socialism, which is capitalism and must be criticized and educated. ”

"This time I found out early, if I was found out by the commune cadres, do you think that if you are arrested and taken to the commune, you will have good fruits to eat?

The members below didn't dare to speak, before the commune's grain search team came to the village to check Qiao Gaoliang and other brigade cadres, that was called a fierce one, in comparison, the militia of the brigade was really gentle.

Qiao Yibing looked at the performance of the members below with satisfaction, he nodded to Qiao Gaotie on the side, and after a while, the militia escorted the people arrested today.

A group of people who had been locked up for most of the day, scared and hungry, were brought out at this time, and they were so frightened that they were sobbing and choking in fear knowing that they would be punished in front of the whole brigade.

Qiao's father looked at the stands and asked Qiao's mother to bring Qiao Jiayue's children back, he didn't want them to see these dark sides.

Qiao Hongzhi was unwilling, and coquettishly wanted to stay with Qiao's mother, but was slapped on the ass by Qiao's father, "Your aunt has already told me about today's matter, go back and see if I don't clean you up." ”

When Qiao Hong heard this, his neck couldn't help shrinking, oh no, how could he forget about this?

Qiao Jiayue really didn't want to see the next scene, she didn't know how the other brigades and the city did it, but in the alpine brigade, that is, fighting, pumping with bamboo branches.

The person who was pumped had to shout loudly that he was wrong and didn't dare to do anything like that.

Qiao Yibing raised his chin slightly, his eyes swept over the people in the audience, looking at their frightened expressions, the corners of his mouth hooked slightly, this feeling of holding the power of life and death of others is really cool.

Immediately, his eyes narrowed, and he saw Qiao's mother leaving first with a few children, and then the other four teams did the same, letting the older children leave with the younger ones, and he was dissatisfied with Qiao's father and had a bad head.

At the beginning, Qiao's father was the captain of the fourth team, firstly, because he did have this ability, and secondly, because he was blocking Chen Dongfang, but now it seems that he is not as easy to control as he imagined.

Qiao's father didn't know Qiao Yibing's thoughts, even if he knew, he was not afraid, he basically controlled the four teams, even if Qiao Yibing wanted to replace himself, it was not so easy.

Qiao Jiayue pulled Qiao's mother with her left hand and Qiao Hongliang with her right hand, listening to the screams coming from behind, thinking to herself, this kind of public execution is really a shadow for many people.

The cadres of the brigade are basically equal to the members of the brigade, and others are helpless.

In fact, Qiao Jiayue still hopes that Qiao's father can go up further, and the captain of the fourth team will still be subject to the captain and secretary in the end.

Fortunately, the captain and secretary can't change the team leader for no reason, so their whole family must be careful not to leave a handle for Qiao's father.

As for the others, as long as Grandpa Qiao is smart enough, he will suppress them, and there is a son who is the captain of the squad, and the convenience of it cannot be detailed.

"Ah Niang, the rice is not enough to pay the public grain, does the public society let us convert it into other crops?" Qiao Jiayue couldn't remember this clearly, so she had to ask.

Qiao's mother frowned, "Yes, there was not enough rice last year, so I converted the potatoes to hand over the public grain." ”

"How many sweet potatoes do you need for a pound of rice?" Qiao Jiayue always felt that this number would not be small.

"I know this, eight pounds. Qiao Hongzhi leaned over and said, "And the sweet potatoes have to be picked well, and the small ones with broken skin can't do it." ”

It is because sweet potatoes have also been converted into public grain, so there is not enough food, and the canteen will be disbanded.

If there are sweet potatoes, the canteen can still hold up.

"So much?" Qiao Jiayue was startled, she still felt that five or six catties was a lot.

"Yes, with such a calculation, there are not many sweet potatoes left in the brigade. Qiao Hongyuan said, "But this year, there are finches and wild vegetables, but there is no need to be afraid of hunger." ”

Fast-growing wild vegetables grow very fast, and at first they had to be eaten, but now they are being cut all over the mountains, and the amount of food per person has increased in recent days.

"Captain Chen went to the commune to report the disaster, and he hasn't come back yet, Ah Niang, do you say that the public grain task of Xia Liang will be reduced?" Qiao Jiayue asked, she felt that the Gao Shan Brigade could not catch the bus to reduce the public grain.

Qiao's mother shook her head, and the corners of her mouth hooked up with a touch of coldness, "The public grain task set this year is lower than last year, but it is also higher than in previous years, even if it is reduced, according to the harvest in the field, it will still not be delivered." ”

They are all idiots, what kind of big satellites to put on, and they don't want to think about how much public grain they have to pay if the output is high, and they don't have brains one by one.

It's like this in the south, and the satellites in the north are definitely even worse, and I don't know how many people will starve to death.

Qiao's mother lowered her eyes, hoping that this fast-growing wild vegetable had been planted all over the country, and no one would die of hunger this year.

Qiao Hongyuan knew that their family would not be hungry no matter what happened, so he didn't care about things like public food.

Moreover, such days will not last long, otherwise the foundation of the country will be destroyed.

Now, he just wants to go back to the basement to read, and there are many questions he hasn't sorted out yet.

Qiao Yibing walked up to Qiao's father, pulled him to chat for a while, and probed his details.

Qiao's father's eyes darkened a little, and he saw through Qiao Yibing's purpose, but he was very cooperative.

After a while, Qiao Yisheng and Qiao Xiangqian also came over, chatting and chatting about Chen Dongfang's report to the commune.

To be honest, they all don't trust Chen Dongfang so much, after all, they are not from their Gaoshan Brigade, will they really benefit the Gaoshan Brigade?

Qiao's father also didn't trust Chen Dongfang, but he had different reasons from others, and when he asked him, he would deal with a few words casually and not say anything substantive.

As for Chen Dongfang, he was also bitter in his heart, and rushed to the commune with great difficulty, who knew that the people from the nearby brigade had already come, and they also brought the members who were injured by the hail, and the scene was once noisy.

The report written by Chen Dongfang was casually thrown on the table, and Liu Damin and Li Xianghong didn't have time to read it at all.

Only then did Chen Dongfang know that it was not only the Taoxi Commune that had a hail disaster, but also the entire city.
