Soon, Wang Yanqiang, Wang Fugui and others arrived.

After listening to Wang Lianshun's news, everyone was also very excited and began to think about the candidates.

"Otherwise, people are in a hurry. You two captains are going to have a private meeting with the laborers tonight...... If you are willing to go, you will gather early tomorrow morning and send them to the county seat by hand-held tractor." There are no outsiders, and Wang Manchu doesn't need to shout slogans or anything, he makes a decision directly.

Two days ago, Director Zhao had already led a group of educated youths to connect many members to work in the river, and it is estimated that he will not be able to return before the year. Without the other party's blindness, it is much more convenient for everyone to do things in the village.

"I'm afraid that everyone will fight to go, and in the end there will be a lot of trouble." Wang Fugui opened his mouth with some worry.

Small workers are seven cents a day, and large workers are one piece...... Removing the management fee in the team, it seems that there is not much left for individuals. But you can't ignore one point, the team will still give full work.

In addition, the construction site manages three meals a day. If you work until the end of the year, one laborer can save at least thirty or fifty catties of grain and twenty or thirty yuan for the family.

If you know how to carpenter, you will get more hands.

This is much better than the year-end dividends in the team...... A lot of laborers work for a year, and they still owe it.

So Wang Fugui's words are not unreasonable, hearing this news, it is estimated that everyone wants to go.

Those who suffer are not afraid of exerting their strength, but they are afraid that they will not have enough to eat.

However, the potatoes and sweet potatoes in the field in front of me have not yet been planed, and the next thing is to fight and deduct corn, and all the labor cannot be sent out.

"Let's go back and ask first, if there are too many people, you can only draw lots. If you can't catch it, you can only blame yourself for your bad luck." Wang Lianshun thought for a moment and spoke.

The others listened and kept nodding their heads, which was the fairest thing to do.

"Uncle Lian Shun, you just decide directly, I won't participate. In addition, when everyone gathers tomorrow, they should bring their quilts and thick clothes."

On this big night, it was cold outside, and Wang Manyin didn't want to continue to accompany the meeting.

Walking out of the secretary's house, he tightened his padded jacket and trotted towards the house with his neck bent.

He had just walked not far when he suddenly saw a black shadow hurrying into the firewood and straw stack next to him.

Wang Manyin had a string in his heart, and immediately roared: "Who, what are you doing?"

"Uncle Man Yin, be quiet, we're hiding cats and monkeys."

In the darkness, the voice of Wang Shuhai's mountain baby came.

"Oh, then you go ahead and hide." Wang Manyin breathed a sigh of relief.

Hiding cats and monkeys is hide and seek, and it is also one of the classic games that broken babies like to play.

Now no more than in later generations, there are no televisions, computers and all kinds of toys.

The broken babies can only adapt to local conditions and find things from around to entertain themselves. Hairy monkeys, catching stones, kicking sandbags, playing tops...... These are all things they play regularly.

I really can't find anything to play, so I pee on the yellow earth, make some mud and throw mud bowls, and I can play for half a day while I am alive.

Speaking of wrestling mud bowls, Wang Manyin also played with them when he was a child, but they called them wrestling tile houses.

The gameplay is very simple, that is, make the mud into a bowl shape, and then drop it downward, and the gas covering it will expand and burst the bottom of the basin.

Depending on the size of the hole to be blown up, the opponent will lose the corresponding mud block.

Sometimes you win a big ball of mud and can be proud for a long time.

Now that I think about it, I think it's a special two.

After breakfast, more than 20 laborers in the village quietly appeared on the side of the dirt road at the head of the village with quilts on their backs.

Then, Liu Xiangyang drove a handheld tractor and arrived.

Because he had to take care of the fish pond, he did not follow other educated youths out of the river to work, but stayed in the village all the time.

The space in the carriage was too small to accommodate more than 20 people to salute together, so some people could only sit on the side gangs, while the rest stood inside.

For the sake of safety, Wang Manyin specially found a few wooden sticks from the village and tied them into guardrails, so that everyone could have a place to support during the drive.

As for himself, he and Liu Xiangyang sat in the driver's seat.

It was too cold, and the walk-behind tractor had no windshield, which was too expensive to drive

Staff, two people need to take turns halfway.

So many people weigh about three or four thousand catties, and Wang Manyin was originally a little afraid that the horsepower of the walk-behind tractor would not be enough. I didn't expect that although it was a little black smoke after starting, it was no problem to run.

Of course, the speed is slower, and some people need to get down the cart when going uphill.

It was almost noon when they finally arrived in the city. z.br>

Seeing the arrival of so many laborers, Hu Yongzhou was naturally very happy, and hurriedly instructed the chef to fry two more pots of vegetables at noon.

When it comes to stir-frying, it is actually cooking in a large pot.

At noon, I ate mutton stewed radish, and there were up to two pieces of meat in a bowl for one person, and more of them were a little mutton fat floating on the vegetable soup.

Even so, it made the laborers of Jar Village very excited.

Wang Manyin was not surprised that Hu Yongzhou was able to get mutton.

At present, pork is purchased and sold in a unified manner, and the management is relatively strict. Mutton is different, and some villages will quietly sell it before the year.

Wang Manyin planned to deal with it on the construction site and rush home early in the afternoon. Unexpectedly, Hu Yongzhou pulled him and Liu Xiangyang into a small room next to him.

Braised lamb, stewed vermicelli with pork, scrambled eggs with green onions, and a plate of shredded potatoes.

Looking at the few dishes on the table, Liu Xiangyang couldn't help but feel reel. I haven't eaten like this in a few days.

Although the educated youths can have a pound of meat tickets every month, on average, they are almost three dollars of meat a day, which is barely enough for a tooth sacrifice.

And they usually like to eat dumplings, and ten people need at least five catties of meat for a meal.

Two dumplings, the meat ticket is completely gone.

Liu Xiangyang didn't know how the villagers in Jar Village endured it, since he cut the queue, he has always felt that there is a lack of meat in his stomach to eat.

To put it bluntly, these four dishes, he can eat a clean light alone.

After the two of them sat down, Hu Yongzhou was not polite, and directly picked up the chopsticks and said, "Full of silver, Xiangyang, I've been hungry for so long. Let's take two sips of something and then drink it."

In this regard, Wang Manyin naturally agreed. He doesn't have a special fondness for alcohol, but men, it's inevitable to drink something when he's out and about, as long as it's not too much.

Three rounds of drinking.

After Hu Yongzhou poured the two of them full, he said, "Manyin, you have also seen the situation on my side, and now the construction site is in a hurry. Especially for salad bricks, the rack car is loaded too little at one time, and it can't catch up at all. I think your walk-behind tractor is very good, can you stay on the construction site to transport materials? Even if I rented it. I pay fifteen yuan a day for rent, and I also pay for diesel, how about it?"

From the moment he saw this walk-behind tractor in the morning, Hu Yongzhou was moved.

Contracting construction by yourself requires a walk-behind tractor too much. He has a relationship, but agricultural machinery is different from ordinary things, and it is impossible to sell it to private individuals.

Hearing this, Liu Xiangyang was immediately moved.

However, he did not say anything, but left everything to Wang Manyin.

According to Wang Manyin's original plan, he could use a walk-behind tractor to pull coal from the Shikema Coal Mine and sell it, and a car could make a profit of almost 20 yuan.

Later, I found that I took it for granted that there were too many variables in the middle. It's okay to pull coal once or twice, but there will definitely be problems after a long time.

It was because of his scruples that he never mentioned it to the village.

However, it was Hu Yongzhou's lease law that made Wang Manyin a little tempted.

However, he did not nod his head for the first time, but asked the most critical question: "Brother Hu, using a walk-behind tractor to do construction belongs to "agricultural machinery is not farming". If you are detained by the staff on the road, can you handle it?"

"It's okay, Man Yin, don't worry about this, I still know some people in the county. As long as it's not bothered, it should be fine." Hu Yongzhou patted his chest and promised.

Wang Manyin believes that the other party can do so much work in Yuanxi County, and there has been no accident, and he must not rely only on his cousin Gao Fengge.

After all, two years ago, Hu Yongzhou was a man of the year in the county.

After thinking about it, Wang Manyin said, "Brother Hu, to tell you the truth, I can't be the master of this, the car belongs to the production team. Now though the genus

In the agricultural slack, but occasionally to the supply and marketing cooperatives to transport goods. If you think this is good, I'll tell the village when I go back and give you an answer in three or two days at the latest, how about it?"

"Alright then," Hu Yongzhou could only nod his head although he was a little disappointed, and continued to persuade him to drink.

After drinking a bottle of wine, seeing that the other party was going to continue to take the wine, Wang Manyin hurriedly stopped it.

I had to drive home in the afternoon, and it was very uncomfortable to be blown by the cold wind after drinking too much, and maybe I would drink alcohol.

It's a shame to vomit such a good meal.

After eating and drinking, Wang Manyin started the walk-behind tractor and left.

In winter, it gets dark early, and there are still 70 miles to go back. That's it, it is estimated that it will be smeared.

"Brother Wang...... That Hu Yongzhou is not simple, right?" After driving a certain distance, Liu Xiangyang asked. Although he had contact with the other party for the first time, he was a little frowning in his heart. Now the people who can contract projects in the county are definitely powerful.

At the same time, Liu Xiangyang admired Wang Manyin a little more in his heart.

Don't look at Brother Wang's usual inconspicuousness in the village, the relationship behind it is really not to be underestimated.

"Well," Wang Manyin didn't know what Liu Xiangyang was thinking, so he just nodded and replied, "That's for sure, some things have thresholds, and not everyone can do them. Let's put it this way, Hu Yongzhou was also a man of the year back then......

"No wonder," Liu Xiangyang hesitated for a moment, and then asked, "Brother Wang, what do you think of the rental of walk-behind tractors in the village?"

"What, tempted?"

"A little," Liu Xiangyang regarded Wang Manyin as a big brother, and did not deny it. If the village agrees, he will definitely be the first choice.

"Xiangyang, I think you know in your heart that Hu Yongzhou's contractor team is irregular, and it can't be guaranteed to be foolproof. If only the members come over to do a side business, it shouldn't be a big problem. But with a walk-behind tractor, the situation is different, it belongs to "agricultural machinery does not farming". It's okay, if you're serious, you can just impound the walk-behind tractor."

"In addition, you are the representative of the advanced intellectuals of the Shibi Festival Commune. Because of this, I don't know how many people are red-eyed behind the scenes. In case there is another Xu Kongxian...... You have to weigh the pros and cons yourself......

After listening, Liu Xiangyang began to suffer from gains and losses.

Of course, the name of the representative of the educated youth has great benefits, at least in the future, the commune recruitment or other things, the first thing to think of is on his head.

But far water can't quench the thirst of the near...... Now the subsidy for educated youth is only a few yuan a month, which is not enough to spend. If you can drive a walk-behind tractor as a side job, even if you deduct the money paid to the team, you can earn at least a few dozen yuan a month.

And it's not tiring.

However, just like Brother Wang said, it doesn't matter if an ordinary member is caught, if it is him, it will affect his progress.

Sugar cane is not as sweet as both ends.

Until he returned to the village, Liu Xiangyang was in a state of hesitation.

***

When Wang Manyin returned to the village to report, Wang Lianshun immediately invited Wang Fugui and Wang Yanqiang to discuss.

Needless to say, several people were tempted.

"Man Yin, we haven't seen that Hu Yongzhou, is it reliable?" However, Wang Lianshun is careful in the end.

"People must have some relationship, but this kind of thing is not afraid of 10,000, just in case. It's good to deduct people, but I'm afraid it's not easy to solve the detainment. This is agricultural machinery, and it is estimated that it will be obtained by the agricultural machinery company at that time. I don't know what happened to Uncle Yanqiang......

This is also what Wang Manyin thinks all the way.

The walk-behind tractor of the second team of Jar Village is not easy to come by, and all aspects must naturally be considered clearly.

Hearing this, several people turned their heads to look at Wang Yanqiang.

Wang Yanqiang hesitated for a moment and said, "If I am really detained in the agricultural machinery company, I will find Lao Wu, and I should be able to come back."

Lao Wu is Wu Zhiyun, who is now the director of the agricultural machinery company, and he is a comrade-in-arms.

"Then it's decided, but Xiangyang has to think about it carefully, if you don't want to go, I'll find someone else to be a tractor driver."

It took more than half a year to buy the walk-behind tractor, and there are not many members who can open it now. No

Liu Xiangyang took the lead and has been serving as a driver.

"Well, I'll give you an accurate answer tomorrow," Liu Xiangyang nodded.

After chatting about the walk-behind tractor, Wang Fugui said again: "By the way, Xiangyang, we went to the commune for a meeting this morning, and the settling-in allowance for the educated youths in each village was allocated, two hundred and four per person."

"Really, great, when will you give us the money?" Liu Xiangyang was originally quite depressed, but he suddenly stood up excitedly at this moment.

Just now, I was thinking about making money, but now I have these two or three hundred yuan, which is enough for a fat year.

The county seat, don't go.

"Panic, listen to me finish settling the accounts, there are a lot of deductions here. First of all, there were two welcome meetings, and when it came to the heads of the educated youth, thirty yuan for one person, and three hundred ......yuan for ten people," Wang Fugui read into the account book.

"Wait, Accountant Wang, when will our production team have a welcome fee, why don't I know?" Liu Xiangyang hurriedly interrupted.

He remembered clearly that it was dark when he came to Jar Village last year.

Just a group of members standing at the entrance of the village to watch the excitement, this is called a welcome party? And it cost three hundred?

"This money is not deducted from the village, you eat in Huangyuan City and Yuanxi County, and the masses welcome them with colorful flags, it will cost money."

"What? The emotional wool came out of the sheep, and it turned out that we spent our own money to hold a welcome party."

Liu Xiangyang didn't know what to say.

When he first came, he was very excited to see the people welcoming him. It felt like it was big and the people were welcoming.

Looking at the account book in Wang Fugui's hand again, Liu Xiangyang's heart became more and more unhappy.

"Then the rest of the money, won't it be deducted?"

"Of course, your living expenses are seven yuan a month, as well as soybean oil and meat stamps, which are one hundred and two a year. The money commune has already withheld it."

"Good fellow, there's only ninety left. Accountant Wang, don't tell me, these ninety yuan can't fall into our hands, right?"

"Well, according to the rules, the rest of the money is for you to solve the housing problem. It is managed by the production team and cannot be distributed to individuals." Wang Fugui nodded again.
