After eating in the morning, after Wang Manyin dealt with a wave of customers who came to the door, he took the rhubarb and walked towards the mountain.

Entering the winter moon, there are a few old yellow winds, and the weather is getting colder and colder.

The continuous mountain beams, the cliffs and ditches chopped by the knife, the empty fields, and the desolate Xintianyou make the entire Loess Plateau more deserted and desolate.

Except for the scattered green winter wheat on the plateau, the gray is abrupt, and there is hardly any vivid color to be seen.

After turning over a few mountain beams, Wang Manyin released the peregrine falcon.

Then, he took the rhubarb into the space and was busy.

There is not much cooking oil at home, and he plans to squeeze more while he has free time now and keep it for the New Year.

Before you get busy, prepare your lunch.

Wang Manyin caught a pheasant weighing more than three catties from the soil pit, and plucked the feathers and gutted them. After washing, put it in a clay pot and simmer with water over low heat.

Next, he set about stir-frying the rapeseed.

In fact, since the first wave of rapeseed harvest in the spring space, Wang Manyin has tried to make rapeseed oil independently...... The method is actually very simple, specifically referring to the local method of oil extraction in the countryside.

The rapeseed is first washed and fried, and then mashed into powder with a stone mortar. He originally wanted to use a stone mill to complete this step, but unfortunately he never bought a stone mill.

Then wrap the rapeseed flour in gauze, steam it on a pot for half an hour, and pour it into a wooden cylinder (not a wooden barrel).

The wooden tube is Wang Manyin found a tree trunk, and used his imagination to hollow out and make it himself, about 20 centimeters high, the wall of the cylinder is two fingers thick, and there is a small hole as thick as chopsticks drilled at the bottom. In addition, there should be a wooden stake that is slightly thinner than the inner diameter of the cylinder.

Everything is ready, and the next thing is to do a miracle, smash the stake with a stone, and use the pressure to squeeze out the clear oil in the rapeseed.

Of course, it's easy to say, but it's hard to get started. First of all, the heat of stir-frying rapeseed should be small, if it is too large, it is easy to fry paste, and the squeezed rapeseed oil tastes bitter.

Wang Manyin tried many times before he grasped the key. Now he can not only press canola oil, but also make peanut oil.

Of course, the pressing in this method is not complete, and the oil yield is relatively low.

But Wang Manyin doesn't care at all, as long as he makes sure that he has oil to eat.

As for squeezing sesame oil...... It is the substitution method of water use. He watched the relevant tutorial when he watched the video in his later life, and it was very simple, as long as he really had his hands, he could operate it smoothly at home.

was busy until noon, and Wang Manyin was able to squeeze out four catties of rapeseed oil.

That's it, it has exceeded the per capita amount of oil in the tank village. Last year, the second team each shared a pound of rapeseed oil, a pound of peanut oil, and two taels of sesame oil.

Since the beginning of spring this year, the team has only divided rapeseed oil once, and it is estimated that peanut oil and sesame oil will be divided before the year.

Wang Manyin's family usually uses up almost a pound of oil every month, and if it weren't for the space to support it, it would have stopped a long time ago. He didn't forget his old father-in-law's house, and quietly asked Orchid to send a pound of rapeseed oil in the summer.

Putting the rapeseed oil into the crockpot to precipitate, Wang Manyin took out his watch and looked at the time, it was just half past eleven.

The pheasant meat in the crockpot was also stewed, so he first picked out the chicken head and neck and half of the internal organs, poured some chicken soup into the food bowl, and then made half a bowl of bran.

After settling the rhubarb, Wang Manyin picked up the chopsticks and started.

After filling his stomach and resting for a while, he picked up half a bundle of firewood on his back and hurried slowly towards the village with rhubarb.

At this time, the sun was already warm, and I didn't go far before I was sweating.

At the door of the house, as expected, there were already people waiting to buy something on the sidelines.

The person who came was Ishikawa Village...... Since Wang Manyin opened the sales agency, he has known the members of the two nearby villages.

After saying hello, he hurriedly led people into the consignment point.

Then, a few more broken babies came to the door.

After selling a few yuan of goods intermittently, Wang Manyin completely relaxed.

He simply moved a chair and sat on the edge of the door to read a book. The padded jacket exposed to the sun was hot, and after a while, the whole person began to feel sleepy.

This is also Wang Manyin's current normality, entering in advance

Cat Winter Moment.

Eating and drinking every day without worry, he really has no more pursuits.

simply guards the small family, and the years are quiet.

Before I could fall asleep, I suddenly heard a loud car bell on the dirt road next to me.

Wang Manyin turned his head to look and saw someone stopping and waving at him, it was Yang Gaohu, the secretary of the commune. Beside him stood a young man with a majestic face, the first time he had seen him.

"Officer Yang, what are you...... What's the matter?" Wang Manyin greeted in his mouth, and hurriedly got up and walked off the side.

As he got closer, he pulled a cigarette out of his pocket and handed it over.

After contacting Yang Gaohu a few times, the two sides are also acquaintances.

The other party took the cigarette and put it on his ear, and said, "Well, this is Officer Ma, who came to your village today to investigate the matter of educated youth. I'm going to ask a few people from the village later, do you have time now, and if you do, come with me."

Seeing the cigarettes handed over, Officer Ma waved his hand and did not reach out to take it.

"Educated youth, what's the matter with the educated youth?" Wang Manyin asked puzzled.

"This needs to be kept secret." Without waiting for his companion to answer, Officer Ma had already stopped the conversation.

Yang Gaohu smiled and didn't explain anything more.

"Okay, I'll lock the door now and come with you."

Although the people spoke in a consultative tone, Wang Manyin had no intention of refusing.

"By the way, is Liu Xiangyang still in the village now? You can help me shout by the way, and we need to find out something about the situation from him." Before leaving, Yang Gaohu said again.

"Okay, I'll go look for him." Wang Manyin replied again.

But he was more and more moaning in his heart. You must know that Yang Gaohu is not a civilian officer, but is in charge of public security in the commune. It is probably not a good thing for him to come forward to investigate.

When Wang Manyin arrived near the earthen dam, he saw Liu Xiangyang busy with a shovel in the low-lying place next to the ditch. Now there is no work in the field, Liu Xiangyang has also relaxed, usually mainly responsible for guarding the fish pond, if you have time, you can also dig a few loaches to beat the tooth sacrifice.

Especially recently, it hasn't rained much, and several ditches next to the rice fields have dried up, and there are a lot of loaches hidden in the soil.

This is also the only benefit of guarding the fish pond, and there are some fish to eat every once in a while. Because of the lack of oil, he usually digs up loaches and eats them roasted.

However, Liu Xiangyang knew that many people were jealous of his work, so he usually didn't dare to hit the idea of fishing ponds.

"Brother Wang, why are you here? I went to play in the morning, and I saw that your door was locked."

"I went into the mountains to collect firewood in the morning, Xiangyang, haven't you done anything recently......

Knowing that Yang Gaohu was still waiting in the village, Wang Manyin did not go around in circles, and directly said his intentions.

After listening to this, Liu Xiangyang was also a little confused and uneasy. He thought about it carefully and said, "Brother Wang, you know, I definitely haven't done anything recently except to go to the villages to play."

"That's good......

After confirming that Liu Xiangyang was fine, Wang Manyin was relieved.

When the two of them arrived in the village, they found that all the cadres of the village were present.

In addition, in addition to him and Liu Xiangyang, Wang Fuchang was also found.

"I'm Ma Hongtao, the officer in charge of the water conservancy infrastructure construction site, and now I'm here to conduct an investigation in Jarzi Village, and I want to know how the ten educated youths have performed in your village in the past year?" Seeing that everyone was due, the other party immediately opened the book and asked.

"Good, good." Although Wang Manchu was a little strange about the other party's origin, he still opened his mouth to praise. The Commune repeatedly stressed the importance of education, and of course he did not dare to speak ill.

"Wang Zhishu, how did I hear that among these educated youths, there is a special thorn named Shang Zhimin, who once openly acted against Zhao Jianhai......" Hearing this, Ma Hongtao frowned slightly and emphasized.

"Ah, this, this should have been...... There was an argument," Wang replied, looking at the two of them suspiciously.

Shouldn't it be hello, hello, hello, everyone? How to be obedient, like trying to find trouble with the educated youth.

"I also learned that a few months ago, Zhao Jianhai was beaten with a stick, chained to the outside and froze overnight. So long

Time, did you find anything in your village?"

"This...... We also found out in the morning. That one...... At that time, I investigated, but no bad people were found. This mile ......" Wang Manchu suddenly became nervous.

is worthy of being born by a mother, he is very similar to Wang Manjun. When encountering things, the car is very slippery.

Fortunately, Ma Hongtao did not delve into it: "Do you think this Shang Zhimin usually has any suspicious behavior......

Hearing this, everyone was silent.

Now even a fool can see that Shang Zhimin must be in some trouble again.

The key is, isn't the other party going out of the river? What could be the matter?

Seeing that no one answered, Ma Hongtao directly named Wang Lianshun.

"Shang Zhimin's work is okay, and he didn't find anything abnormal." Wang Lian opened his mouth in a vague manner. Although he was not satisfied with a group of educated youths in his heart, he didn't intend to say anything bad. Because maybe your own words will have a big impact.

Ma Hongtao asked a few people in a row, and everyone said the same thing. Without understanding what is happening, no one dares to talk nonsense.

When Wang Manyin arrived, he also talked in generalities: "As far as my usual contact is concerned, Shang Zhimin is a good person. Of course, I rarely go to the Educated Youth Point, and I don't know much more."

After a circle of people asked, he didn't get the answer he wanted, Ma Hongtao's face was still calm, and he just got up and said that he wanted to go to the toilet.

Waiting for the other party to leave, Wang Yanqiang asked Yang Gaohu: "Old Yang, what is the matter, you don't come to the village coldly, and give people a whole lot of up."

The other party lowered his voice and said with a wry smile, "You don't know yet, do you...... Zhao Jianhai was beaten on the construction site last night and is now hospitalized......

Zhao Jianhai came out of the toilet in the middle of the night and was knocked unconscious. Yang Gaohu is not very clear about the specific situation at the site, but he only knows that there has been a lot of movement at the water conservancy infrastructure construction site.

After investigation and inquiry by the site management personnel, Zhao Jianhai also had a similar experience in Jarzi Village.

That's why they sent Ma Hongtao to the jar village to find out the specific situation and see if they could get some clues. z.br>

Now several educated youths in the village are suspected, especially Shang Zhimin, who had a fierce conflict with Zhao Jianhai, and is even regarded as the key object of suspicion.

Boy!

Listening to Yang Gaohu's meaning, Zhao Jianhai was knocked unconscious first, then stuffed something in his mouth, and was beaten again. It seems that the injury is quite serious.

Wang Manyin didn't have the slightest sympathy, how could he feel so relieved. However, he kept a serious expression on his face, trying not to smile.

At the same time, he also wanted to know what Zhao Jianhai had done to provoke someone to do it.

But then again, depending on the other party's style, it seems that there is nothing abnormal about being beaten.

"Is there any evidence pointing to Shang Zhimin?"

"No, many people have testified to him that Shang Zhimin played cards with a few companions last night and didn't lie down to sleep until dawn."

If there was evidence, the construction site would not have sent only horse officers.

After some inquiry, they didn't get any useful information, and Officer Ma and Yang Gaohu left in a hurry.

When the two of them disappeared on bicycles, Wang Yanqiang couldn't help but laugh and said, "Sure enough, the wicked still have to grind the wicked, and the white is five or six people all day long, and this will definitely cause hard stubble."

"Listening to that, Zhao Jianhai is estimated to be in the hospital for a while. If he hadn't returned to the village a year ago, we would have been able to have a peaceful birthday." Wang Lianshun also nodded again and again.

"Why don't you take this opportunity to finish the head food as soon as possible? We can't just delay it until the Chinese New Year because he hasn't come back." At this time, Wang Fugui suggested again.

At present, the second team has more than 200 catties of grain per person, which has not yet reached the specified amount, and there is still autumn grain to be distributed before the year. The previous pile of potatoes and sweet potatoes was easy to spoil when they existed together, so they were dug up and distributed to the members.

The distribution of grains such as corn millet is much stricter, and it is generally necessary for Director Zhao to witness it with his own eyes.

Therefore, although the corn cob has been processed, it is only temporarily stored in the warehouse, stamped with grain stamps, and has not really been recorded.

The so-called grain seal is a large seal

。 Printing it on the grain pile can prevent it from being stolen. Because the grain particles are very loose, as long as they move a little, the traces of grain marks will change.

The grain seal of this era is very distinctive, and it is generally engraved with the word "fairness", which reflects the good wishes of the members. In addition, there are also words such as "harvest" and "peace".

The grain seal is usually kept by a special person, and no one else can touch it. When the food needs to be used, the custodian, the accountant, and the person holding the grain seal must be present at the same time.

In addition, the food stamps must be checked every day, and if there is any abnormality, the team must be notified for inspection.

Of course, these designs are beautiful, but in reality they are problematic. At least when the second team of Harugami used the reserve grain, it did not alarm too many people.

Wang Lianshun's eyes lit up and replied, "That's okay, it's early or not late, just tonight."

Knowing that the food was going to be distributed again, the members of the second team who stayed at home immediately became excited. Either way, it's always good to have food.

Not long after dinner, there were already 100 people gathered in front of the warehouse, but most of them were women, old people and children.

Liu Xiangyang also came to the scene, after all, it was about the rations of the educated youth next year, and he didn't dare to be careless.

However, when the food is distributed, it can only be temporarily stored in the team like last time.

Wang Lianshun and Wang Fugui stood in front of the warehouse, with two dead wind lamps hanging beside them.

After a few brief speeches, they called their names, confirmed that there were people in each family, and officially began to distribute the grain.

Wang Manyin originally thought that this time, like the previous times, the big rod scale in the team would be used when distributing the grain.

Unexpectedly, Wang Lianshun took out a trapezoidal wooden bucket and a wooden liter from the warehouse.

It was the first time he had seen the team share food like this, and he was stunned.
