This old man, he won't get into the horns, can't he think about it?

Wang Manyin didn't dare to hesitate, and immediately took the clothes and let Rhubarb sniff.

For finding people, Rhubarb is all too familiar. After just a few seconds, it ran into the darkness.

The crowd followed closely with flashlights and entered the East Mountain Pass.

Through several woods, they came to the vicinity of the rice fields. There was a constant croaking of frogs and the occasional owl.

Since the Higashiyama Pass has been turned into a forest, the number of animals inhabiting it has increased. In addition to a variety of birds, there are more hares, squirrels and voles.

It also attracts many predators, and owls are one of them.

This kind of guy screams very permeatingly, and he is a little timid, and he doesn't dare to enter the Dongshan Pass at night.

When everyone passed the rice field, they saw two black shadows standing up from the earth-rock dam not far away.

You can see clearly from the flashlight, one is Wang Fuchang, who is guarding the fish pond, and the other is Wang Lianshun.

The other party blocked the light with his hand, and said in surprise: "The sun, why are you here?" I just looked at the flashlight from afar, and I thought it was a frog catcher. ”

"Dead old man, why don't you go home in the middle of the night, why do you run so far? I thought about what was wrong, so I asked Manyin and them to help find it. Seeing that her husband was fine, Aunt Wang Lianshun breathed a sigh of relief.

"If there is anything to do, I just want to talk to Fu Chang, and the dam is cool. You alarmed the four towns and eight forts, I don't know what you think is wrong......" Wang Lianshun couldn't help but reprimand.

"Okay, Uncle Lian Shun, my aunt is also worried about you." Wang Manyin came to say.

"It's a big night, go back to sleep quickly, don't delay tomorrow's work."

There is no land for a day, and everyone has to go out of the mountains to earn work.

After a pause, Wang Lianshun said again, "Full of silver and wealth, you two will stay and accompany me and Fu Chang to gossip." ”

Knowing that the other party was not quiet, Wang Manyin nodded and stayed.

Waiting for the others to leave, Wang Fugui touched his coat pocket and handed out a cigarette to people one by one.

The four big men sat on the earth and stone dam, and there was a burst of clouds and mist.

This is the first earth-rock dam built by the second team of Jarzi Village, and although it has experienced several heavy rains and floods in the past ten years, the dam body is still as strong as ever.

It is also from the construction of this earth-rock dam that the rotten days of Jarzi Village have gradually improved, and it has become a well-known advanced village of Xuedazhai in Yuanxi County.

"Man Yin, you said that our production team worked collectively to earn work points before, isn't it really good?"

After taking a few puffs of cigarette, Wang Lianshun finally spoke.

He still held his breath, wondering why everyone had to divide the land. It's understandable to say that other village members have this idea...... The second team is not full of food.

"I remember when this dam was built, everyone was full of energy and wanted to work together. Fugui and I hid from Director Zhao and took out all the reserve grain in the team. At that time, you will go to jail for doing this......"

"And you yourself full of silver, and your foot is swollen when you carry stones. Fugui rolled down the slope and almost broke his waist! In order to have a full meal, everyone fought hard. ”

"Manyin brains are working, let everyone see the practices of the people of Liujiawan in Yuandong County...... After I came back, several people sat at my house for a meeting, as well as Liu Xiangyang and Yan Qiang. At that time, life was hard, but everyone had faith. ”

"I just want to transform the cliff ditch of more than 100 acres in Dongshan Pass, so that the members will no longer be hungry and can eat corn nests all of a sudden!"

"Now a large forest has been planted in Dongshan, there are more than 100 acres of good fields, and there are two large flocks of sheep, and the members can also eat corn nests...... Why did the production team disperse when it was said. Full of silver, why the hell?! ”

In fact, when Liu Genmin came to the village to announce the division of land a few days ago, Wang Lianshun wanted to cry uncomfortably, and he kept pressing it in his heart.

He really wanted to do something for the village.

Now it seems that I am busy with ten years of achievements, and all of them have been denied.

Wang Manyin didn't answer, but turned his head to Wang Fuchang and said, "Uncle Fu, I saw that you also raised your hand during the meeting, what did you think in your heart!?" ”

"Actually, Lian Shun did a good job, and everyone saw it...... But I just want to grow my own land, and I feel relieved to see the food received at home. Wang Fuchang didn't play false, and directly said his thoughts.

"Uncle Lian Shun, this is what everyone thinks. Even if the big collective is as good as it is, it can't compete with the hearts of the people. Working together in the same way, some people are willing to exert their strength, some are cheating and cheating, and in the end, they will share the same food and money, and the heart of those who contribute more will definitely be unbalanced. Our second team has done a good job over the years, and it is inevitable that such things will happen, how much mud are you with? It's better to eat on your own! People didn't complain to you before, because they knew it was useless to complain. ”

Hearing this, Wang Lianshun could only nod.

There are a hundred people, all kinds of people.

Some people are honest and diligent, and naturally some people are lazy. The production team has heavy physical work, so it is natural to have ease. If you want a bowl of water, it's simply impossible.

To put it simply, 10 points of work for cutting wheat for a day, 10 points for picking half a day's dung, and 10 points for going to a meeting in the commune...... Fools want to know how to choose.

When assigning tasks at ordinary times, Wang Lianshun can only let the diligent people do more, and the lazy people do less work.

For this reason, there is no less complaining.

Thinking about it this way, Wang Lianshun somewhat understood everyone's thoughts.

Immediately, he was worried again: "I'm worried about some people who are lazy, can they grow crops alone, don't starve to death." ”

"You can rest assured that when they are hungry, they naturally know that they are in a hurry. You are not a parent and can, you can manage them for a lifetime. ”

There was a team in the team before, and I could make a living if I did a good job.

The fields were divided equally, and everyone did their own thing, and each showed his powers. Without support, those lazy people can only be "diligent".

"In addition, Uncle Lian Shun, let's divide the land and divide the land, don't divide this forest in Dongshan Pass for the time being, I'm afraid that someone has shallow eyelids and will destroy the forest and plant crops!"

This forest is also the hard work of the second team, it took ten years to get to today's scale, and it would be a pity to destroy it.

……

The four of them sat on the dam and talked for an hour, until the dew fell.

***

Wang Lianshun has always been convinced of Wang Manyin's judgment.

Knowing that it was imperative to divide the land, he did not continue to insist, and soon told the members to cut the wheat and divide the land, so that everyone could discuss the matter of the mutual aid group in advance.

The so-called mutual aid group is a free combination of three or five households, and the implementation of group joint production contracting. According to the commune, although the output of the field is counted as each family, it is necessary to plow, sow, harvest, and hand over the public grain together (the methods of mutual aid groups are slightly different in different places, so this article takes one of them).

With accurate information, the members of the club were a little more energetic when harvesting wheat.

Wheat cutting is a top priority, and counting the last collective farm work of the production team, Wang Manyin will naturally not be absent. Without manpower, the fried melon seeds at home can only be suspended. However, a few days ago, he had prepared thousands of catties of spiced melon seeds, and it would not be a problem to stick to it until the wheat harvest.

This year, Wang Lianshun cut wheat and killed a sheep every day to improve everyone's food.

Wheat harvesting, field ...... Everything seems to be the same as in previous years.

After the wheat is harvested, the land is officially divided.

The second team now has 65 households, all of which add up to 306 heads and nearly 800 acres of collective land. After calculation, each person can divide two and a half acres.

Since he had made up his mind, after Wang Lianshun and Wang Fugui discussed, they simply divided the autumn land in one step. However, the autumn land is more troublesome, and the crops planted in each plot are different, and the growth is good and bad.

In order to prevent quarrels at that time, Wang Lianshun called the members together for a meeting. In the end, everyone unanimously agreed to adopt the method of drawing lots, and they could only blame themselves for their bad luck.

As for the various agricultural equipment purchased by the second team, as well as livestock and two large flocks of sheep, it was more troublesome to separate.

After some debate, it was decided that the livestock and sheep would be sold to the members of the society, and the agricultural equipment would be kept in the team for the time being.

The focus is on two walk-behind tractors, and whoever wants to use it will buy their own diesel.

Wang Manyin, Wang Qiusheng, and Wang Qingming are in a mutual aid group. A mule, three sheep, and nearly fifty acres of land.

Among them, Wang Manyin's family of five people divided ten acres of collective land, plus self-reserved land, can have more than thirteen acres.

Wang Qiusheng's family has four laborers, and Wang Qingming's family has three...... On the other hand, the three children of Wang Manyin's family are still young, so he and Orchid can work in the field. The other two are busy frying melon seeds every day, and they don't have much time to greet the fields.

At the end of the meeting, he stopped the two to discuss: "Brother Qiusheng, Uncle Qingming, I think so, let's call it a mutual aid group to the outside world, and in fact, we will do it in one step and do our own thing." In addition, I don't want the mule in the team, you two will discuss it to see what to do, and if someone wants it, you will directly give the money to the team when the time comes......"

The reason why Wang Manyin is so simple is that on the one hand, he doesn't want to take advantage of others, and on the other hand, he has his own plans.

Except for three acres of wheat fields, the rest of the more than ten acres of land are full of autumn crops. You can directly borrow the walk-behind tractor in the team, and you can be busy in a day at most, nothing more than some diesel.

Wang Manyin drove the walk-behind tractor many times to do errands, and he was quite clear about fuel consumption. 12 horsepower light load, an hour is only two pounds of diesel, the cost is less than three cents.

Of course, he didn't pay attention to this little money. As for the diesel ticket, you can ask Director Guo to help get it.

However, this year, it was too late to plant sunflowers, so we could only plant corn. Wang Manyin plans to wait for next year to leave a few acres of spring land to plant sunflowers, so as to save trouble.

In just two days, the 800 acres of land of the second team of Jar Village have been divided, and the land has been planted with boundary stones.

Not only did the jar village begin to divide the land, but all parts of the Yellow Plains were also in full swing.

However, because the situation of each production team is different, the way of dividing land is also varied.

For example, Shibijie Village still adheres to the large collective, and half of Shuangshui Village has implemented a mutual aid group, and Xiashan Village has implemented a one-step package to directly contract production to households.

Knowing that the village was divided into land, Shao'an greeted Wang Manyin early and asked if he needed fertilizer.

Over the years, the members of the production teams of the Shibi Festival have long known the benefits of fertilizer, and they no longer resist when planting. In previous years, when the group was large, the fertilizer was directly distributed to the production teams. Wang Manyin, with Shao'an's relationship, can get a few more bags of fertilizer for Jar Village each time.

Now after the establishment of a mutual aid group, the production team will naturally no longer worry about fertilizer, and can only be arranged by themselves.

There are so many fertilizers in the supply and marketing cooperatives, and it is estimated that they will not be able to buy them at all.

Wang Manyin got the information, immediately discussed with the remaining two, and then pulled six packs of urea back.

The next day, he borrowed a walk-behind tractor from the team to plow the land.

Except for him, no one else dared to toss like this. It costs three cents of diesel an hour, and half a day is more than a dollar...... If livestock are used, an average of two acres of land consumes one basket of forage.

Which saves money, they calculate it very clearly.

The field was divided, and the orchid resigned from the sewing department.

This move, of course, caused a lot of discussion among the people in the village, who felt that the two of them had broken heads.

For many people, it is very rare to have a formal job this year, to ensure a good harvest in drought and flood...... Although Wang Manyin made some money by frying melon seeds, he didn't know when the policy would change, so he was dragged to study if he said no.

Wang Manyin didn't have time to explain so much to others.

After breakfast, he took a few members of his family into the field.

Speaking of which, my three children have grown up so big, and they have basically never done farm work seriously, and today is the first time.

Wang Manyin started the walk-behind tractor to plow the field, while Orchid and her three children followed behind to spread fertilizer. In one day, more than three acres of land were ploughed, raked both sides, and by the way, fertilizer and corn seeds were also sown.

Now there is no moisture in the field, and the corn will not emerge at all. But it doesn't matter, even if you do it for ten days and a half months, it won't break.

If you look at the other families in the village, they are still ploughing slowly with livestock.

After planting corn, Wang Manyin's well-drilling plan was officially put on the agenda.

He originally wanted to drill a pressurized water well, which would save money. However, when you think about it, pressurized wells are produced by emptying the natural atmospheric pressure, and if the well is too deep, it will not be able to press water, and it is easy to lack water when it is too shallow and drought.

Later, it was simply done in one step, and a deep well was drilled directly on the side of the field, and the village pumping machine could be borrowed at that time.

There is no way, there is no electricity in the tank village at present, and the only way to pump water is to use walk-behind tractors to generate electricity.

Speaking of digging wells, Wang Manyin has always had doubts in his heart when he read the original book. I don't know what the people in several villages along the Dongla River think, but in times of drought, they would rather cry and beg for rain than dig a deep well.

These villages are obviously next to the Dongla River, and the underground water veins must be fine. Most of the wells dug by hand in each village are more than ten meters deep, which can provide drinking water for people all year round.

Theoretically, if you dig a deep well, you can secure a water source.

But everyone seems to have chosen to ignore this matter...... Lack of money may be one of the reasons, but it is not the main one, it is more that people's thinking has not changed.

Many people just know how to blindly follow what they are told to do.

In other words, the village cadres do not consider the reality and pat their heads to make decisions.

The most obvious example is the Shuangshui Village Party Secretary Tian Futang. This man only stood in his yard and smoked a cigarette, and he came up with a bold idea: to use explosives to blow up Shenxian Mountain and Miaoping Mountain, block a dam in the middle, and completely transform the five-mile-long Weeping River into a rice grain river, so as to ensure a bumper harvest in drought and flood.

To this end, Shuangshui Village secretly sold tens of thousands of catties of sorghum stored by the brigade, raised four or five thousand yuan, and bought back several thousand catties of explosives. In addition, many families were relocated, and countless laborers spent several months.

As a result, a flood turned the dam into a joke.

If the money is used to dig two wells, at least two or three hundred acres of land can be irrigated.
