"In the end, we didn't lose a penny, so you can talk to me about a hammer." Liu Xiangyang was completely speechless.

At the beginning, I heard that there were two hundred and forty yuan, and I was very excited.

Now I know that it is pure excitement. This money can be seen and touched, and it has been arranged clearly.

Immediately, he moved his mind again: Putting aside the money withheld by the commune, the production team could make up his mind about the 90 yuan. Even if it is quietly distributed to an individual, the above should not know.

"Captain Wang, I don't think there is any need to solve the housing problem, the cave we live in now is quite good. Let's give the money to the individual."

"Then what's the matter, you live in the cave of the brigade headquarters, and it is not owned by the educated youth. According to the commune, the money was to be used to dig a few more holes. When you went to the construction site to deliver grain in the past two days, you discussed with other educated youths where you wanted to dig the cave...... As long as the place is suitable, I will immediately find someone to dig and strive to let you live in a new kiln before the end of the year." Wang Lianshun said.

Hearing this, Liu Xiangyang's face became a little depressed: "Dig the kiln, if we dig the cave, we will really take root in the jar village, and we will never go back."

The rest of the people couldn't answer that. There are some things that they can't decide.

And in my heart, in fact, the second team of Jar Village does not welcome the arrival of educated youth.

The commune meeting made it very clear that the intellectuals did not have food rations when they first arrived, so they needed subsidies from above.

This year is different, as food rations need to be distributed to these people. The food of each production team was already tight, but now there are ten more mouths, and the result can be imagined.

Moreover, it was emphasized in the commune that in order to feed the educated youth, special care was needed to distribute the food, and each person was given a one-and-a-half-person ration.

The members of the club "are enough, three hundred and six", the educated youth are different, they must have enough 45 catties a month, that is, 540 catties.

If this is the case alone, Wang Lianshun can bear it. The key is that many educated youths are usually lazy and lazy, and they don't like to do it, just this attitude, not to mention getting a full job, even if they score 8 points, he thinks it is too much.

What's more, they don't work for ten days and a half months at every turn.

Especially that Shang Zhimin, he often said hello without saying a word, and went to other villages to visit the youth with a satchel.

Afraid that something would happen to the other party, he would have to come to check on it from time to time.

That's it, the performance of the educated youths in Jar Village is already okay, and some villages are even more outrageous. Take the last dog beating incident as an example, it almost killed someone.

There are also educated youths who wander around ten miles and eight villages every day, stealing chickens and touching dogs while people are not paying attention, which causes many farmers a headache.

After discussing the matter, everyone dispersed.

As soon as Wang Manyin walked out of a distance, he was caught up by Liu Xiangyang.

"Brother Wang, do you think we can really go back?"

In the past, the educated youths only lived temporarily in the jar village, but now they are given a settling-in fee, and even the house has been arranged.

"Surely you can go back, didn't you almost go to work as a coal miner? If you think about it carefully, you can see if there have always been educated youths who have left the countryside through various channels." Wang Manyin smiled and comforted.

At the meeting, he found out that this kid suddenly heard the news of the cave, and he would definitely be cranky in his heart.

But when you calm down and think about it, you will know that the mother of the child is worried, how can any parent be willing to let their children suffer in the countryside. If I had the chance, I would definitely get them away.

"That's right, I'm a bit of a. It's always good to be able to drill a few holes in a new kiln."

In just a few words, Liu Xiangyang's mood was much better.

That's right, although I spend most of my time in the village, I also have contact with other educated youths, and I often hear that so-and-so has left.

***

From planting winter wheat to the present, Wang Lianshun has been leading the members to shave potatoes and sweet potatoes. Although it was dry this year, the river field was watered once, so the harvest was good.

Especially sweet potatoes, one acre of land can produce more than 2,000 catties. Converted into grain, it is about 400 catties.

That's not a low yield...... Of course, only in Kawachi.

In those unwatered plots on the plateau and mountains, many sweet potatoes are not as thick as a thumb. When you dig it down, it's almost all old roots, one

It is good to be able to harvest three or four hundred catties per mu of land.

To cut out the sweet potatoes, the first time to pick out the big ones, let the village mother-in-law and aunts rub the sweet potatoes into dry dry, and then hand over the public grain.

After handing over the dried sweet potatoes, the task of the second team of Jar Village this year will be completely completed.

Next, it is time to really distribute food to each family. Generally, fresh sweet potatoes are five catties and one catty of grain, and potatoes are six catties per catty.

In fact, for dividing potatoes and sweet potatoes, the members like it very much. They are much better than sorghum noodles.

Especially sweet potatoes, this thing has a good taste, can be baked, steamed or boiled, and tastes sweet and gluten-free, which is the favorite of adults and children.

However, you can't eat too much, otherwise you will have stomach pain and vomit sour water.

The second team of Jar Village went out to work on the river, and the educated youth went to the 30th person with the members. A few days ago, more than a dozen people went to the county seat to engage in side jobs.

There are now less than twenty male laborers left in the village, so the upper hand seems to be a little tight. The remaining potatoes and sweet potatoes must be shaved out as soon as possible, otherwise they will all be spoiled as soon as they are frozen, and the pigs will not eat them at that time.

Wang Manyin, as a left-behind staff in the village, was naturally embarrassed to be idle, and followed the laborers to rake and plane sweet potatoes. He had always been willing to work hard, and soon took off his padded jacket and continued to work with only a threaded shirt.

There are also skills in shaving sweet potatoes, so you should do a good job of the amount in advance. Otherwise, a nail will be raked down and the sweet potato will be shoeed directly. This kind of rotten sweet potato cannot be stored for a long time, so it can only be eaten in time or rubbed into dried sweet potatoes.

At this point, Wang Manyin has a good grasp.

With a nail rake, the big nest of sweet potatoes is uprooted, and there is no need to plane it a second time. Before the others finished planing, he had already begun to turn around.

By the time work ended at noon, more than 20 people had finally finished planing the sweet potatoes in the entire Sichuan area.

The planing is not finished, and the production team will arrange for someone to search for it again to prevent anyone from missing it.

After that, the plot will be released and the members of the team will be allowed to come in and walk the sweet potatoes.

This is also a "welfare" that everyone knows.

Sweet potatoes are strange things, they tend to look very thin rhizomes, and maybe they have a large sweet potato at the end.

If someone is lucky, digging dozens of catties a day is not a problem.

Of course, this kind of beautiful thing can only happen in the river. As for the sweet potato fields on the plateau, few people are willing to look for them.

Wang Manyin couldn't eat a lot of sweet potatoes in his space, so he naturally didn't plan to slip sweet potatoes. As for some of the actions of the rest of the village, he also turned a blind eye.

After seeing the scene of the autumn harvest, Wang Manyin has no waves in his heart.

As soon as he arrived at the village, he saw from a distance someone standing on the dirt road under the edge of his house, and a bicycle was parked on the side.

Wang Manyin originally thought that someone was waiting to buy something, but when he got closer, he found that it was Dong Gang.

The other party is not dumping his bicycle in the county, why did he suddenly come to his house? Wang Manyin's heart suddenly murmured.

The last time I saw Dong Gang, he was wearing an elegant Mao suit with a pen in his front pocket, and he looked very much like a cadre in the city. It feels high-spirited and majestic.

Now he has a scruffy beard, a torn jacket, and patches on his trousers, similar to the old farmers in the village.

Nine times out of ten, something went wrong.

Dong Gang happened to see him too, and greeted him with some excitement: "Man Yin, you can be counted as coming back, I will wait for half a day." I'm glad I asked the children in your village ......."

"Brother Dong, are you a rare guest? Come in and sit down," Wang Manyin was full of doubts, but he was still smiling.

Welcoming the other party into the cave, he hurriedly poured a cup of boiling water and handed it over: "Brother Dong, my conditions here are limited, and I can't compare with your family, and there is no tea, so let's just take a look."

"It's okay, it's okay, I'm frozen, just drink some hot water." Also, can you eat all the time first, I haven't eaten since last night......

"Wait a minute, I'll get you two packs of biscuit pads and start cooking right away."

Wang Manyin didn't plan to be a snob. No matter why the other party comes to the door, he still has to be considerate. When he was in the county seat, people didn't treat him badly.

See cookies

took it, Dong Gang took it, tore it open and stuffed it into his mouth.

"Thank you so much......

Then he choked and screamed, and hurriedly drank water and poured it violently.

After a few sips of water, his face returned to normal.

"Brother Dong, you slow down, don't choke, it's a big problem......" Wang Manyin hurriedly persuaded him.

Then, he took seven or eight eggs, grabbed two handfuls of soft eggs, and prepared to make a soft egg. It just so happens that there is still half an air-dried rabbit at home, which can be stewed with potatoes.

"Man Yin, Brother Dong is in trouble now, and he came to you for help......" After eating two packs of biscuits in a row, Dong Gang took the initiative to explain his intention.

"Brother Dong, what the hell is going on, is it because of the bicycle?" Although Wang Manyin had doubts in his words, he believed in his heart that he was not wrong.

"That's right, it's because of a bicycle. I bought a ninety percent new phoenix chain box from Huangyuan, and I got it back to be looked at, but the bid was too low...... I was also greedy, so I didn't sell it. As a result, the other party knew someone from the working group and came to block my door at night. Fortunately, I was clever enough to hear someone shouting, so I leaned down in the crack of the door and looked twice. felt that something was wrong, so he immediately jumped over the wall and escaped next door, so he didn't let it be blocked. I originally planned to hide in the county seat for a few days to check the news, but that guy didn't pay attention to it, and took a team to look all over the county."

"I just hid in a buddy's house for two days and was approached again. Only after contacting me did I know that now the working group has made me a key target. The county town can't stay anymore, and I don't dare to contact other acquaintances......

Really!

I often walk by the river, how can I not get my shoes wet.

In the final analysis, Dong Gang's business is too eye-catching. Just think about it, how can a car have a profit of dozens of dollars, how can it not attract attention.

Dong Gang revealed last time he drank that dozens of cars had been sold, which was a huge amount.

If it weren't for him running over the wall, life would definitely be hard now.

Wang Manyin was secretly glad that he was not tempted at the beginning, otherwise this guy would have been caught, and he would not have been able to do well.

However, for the purpose of Dong Gang's visit...... If he wanted to hide in his house, Wang Manyin would definitely simply refuse.

In these days, it is not so simple to take in outsiders.

In order to prevent bad people from wandering and hiding and causing sabotage, each village of Shibijie Commune will organize basic militia patrols every other day.

At night, they not only patrol the intersections of the village, but sometimes also raid the homes of some members to see if there are any outsiders staying.

If so, is it a relative, and which village is it from? All need to be registered. After waiting for the destiny, I have to find a neighbor to identify.

If it's a regular customer, the neighbors will be somewhat impressed.

If you are not a relative, but another person from outside the country, you must present a letter of introduction. If you don't have a letter of introduction, then it's a big trouble, and you have to take it directly to the brigade to deal with it.

In addition, if there is anything suspicious in the head of the household, it is difficult to escape the eyes of the night watchman.

This is also one of the reasons why Wang Manyin has never put too much food at home.

Of course, the average poor and middle-class peasant family rarely checks. Wang Manyin has been in this world for almost a year, and he has been checked twice.

While the two were talking, Wang Manyin had already fried a large plate of lichen eggs and served it to the table.

When the hare was cut and put into the pot, he took a bottle of wine.

After pouring it for Dong Gang, the two waited while drinking.

"Man Yin, I came out in a hurry this time, and even my clothes were borrowed from others. I don't have a penny in my pocket, eat ***, can you lend me some."

After drinking two glasses of wine, Dong Gang spoke expectantly.

He was called to open the door in the middle of the night, when the situation was urgent, and there was no time to get food stamps and money. originally wanted to hide at a good friend's house for a while, but the other party was afraid of getting into trouble, so he secretly urged him to leave.

In addition, he offended the person who was looking for him all over the county, so Dong Gang had to leave overnight on his bicycle. The bike had already been negotiated with a buyer, and it happened to be left at a friend's house, which gave him transportation.

"No problem, Brother Dong, how much?" Wang Manyin replied

Very crisp.

"I guess I'll have to stay outside for a while, and I'll get thirty or fifty dollars first, and if I have food stamps, I'll get some of them."

Dong Gang knew that the night patrol in the countryside was stricter, and he never mentioned accommodation.

"Okay, I'll get it for you," said Wang Manyin, and stood up.

As long as the other party doesn't plan to borrow, money and food stamps or something, everything is easy to say.

As for where Dong Gang was hiding later, he didn't plan to ask.

Cats have a cat's lane, and dogs have a dog's lane. Dong Gang's ability to do business in the county for so long must have something to do with it.

After drinking a bottle of wine, the hare meat was almost stewed.

Wang Manyin didn't pay so much attention to it, and directly filled most of the tile basins by himself.

After eating and drinking, Dong Gang pushed his bicycle and rushed away.

Before leaving, he took Wang Manyin's hand and solemnly explained, "Manyin, I ran too hurriedly this time, my mother must be worried to death. Brother Dong begs you again, if you have time to go to the county seat in the past two days, see how my mother is doing, and tell her that I'm fine, it's good. I buried food stamps and money under the pomegranate tree in the courtyard......

"Okay," Wang Manyin nodded equally seriously.

With such a delay, he was a little late to work.

But Wang Lianshun didn't say anything.

Everyone has something to do, and it's nothing to come late once in a while.

When he was about to finish work, he said, "Man Yin, Xiangyang came to me at noon, saying that he didn't plan to go to the county seat to drive a walk-behind tractor. You can drive the car over to Kiyama tomorrow, I think he drove well."

Wang Manyin was not surprised by Liu Xiangyang's refusal. Z.br>

In the final analysis, the other party still has a spectrum in his heart, and he can carry it clearly.

The opportunity to leave the countryside is more important than earning money.

As for Wang Xishan, who Wang Lianshun said, he is the second son of the accountant Wang Fugui's family.
