Chapter VII New Year's Goods

This kind of thing is stupid and stupid will not go through the information himself, and the people under his hands are used to do this

Silly Zhu came to the side of the farmland, and sure enough, the water in the river froze, and the water level was much lower than before

On the other side, I found Professor Zhou, who was leading people to measure the field

"Professor Zhou, how is the water in the well, is it enough to water the ground?"

Professor Zhou looked up and saw that the stupid pillar was coming, and his impetuous heart was also a little calm, and he had to wait for the stupid pillar to come if he couldn't make a decision on some things

"Pillar, let people go and cut off the river at the entrance of the rolling mill, let the water flow to this side, the water in the well is too deep, it is estimated that it is not enough, the two pieces of land add up to 500 acres, and the point in the well is a drop in the bucket."

Silly Zhu first bent down to look at the trend of wheat, it is indeed a bit drought, no wonder Professor Zhou is so anxious, but this section of the river is not a trivial matter, you have to talk to the leader first, let the leader come forward to communicate with the Water Conservancy Bureau

"Professor Zhou, I will go to the rolling mill to communicate with the leaders now, and strive to start acting today"

The river in front of the rolling mill is not a small river, if there is no water conservancy bureau to greet in advance, it may affect the villages downstream of the river, this kind of thing has to be done by the water conservancy bureau, a steel mill ran to tell people that there is no water in the river in the past two days, and they want to water the ground for two days, I am afraid that they will not be directly hit out of the village with a rake

Silly Zhu went to the chicken coop and pigsty to see the situation, the situation was relatively stable, and the problem of watering the ground was solved

Silly Zhu went to the factory office in the morning, and it is not clear who to communicate with Silly Zhu specifically, there are only a few docking departments in the rolling mill, and it won't take long to run a trip

The stupid pillar who solved the problem in front of him returned to the farm, and without even taking a sip of water, Xiao Ding came over with the report

"Section chief, this is the number counted in the morning, as well as the number of unplanned chickens, ducks, goose eggs, you see"

Silly Zhu took the report handed by Xiao Ding, and it was similar to what he thought, this year's breeding of chickens, ducks and geese was more than 1,000 more than that recorded by the rolling mill, and the eggs produced every month were also a lot more

"Xiaoding, you go and inform the person in charge of the warehouse, let him come to see me, bring the details of the grain reserves in the warehouse, and notify the director of the canteen Ma to come over, go and get busy."

Ma Feiyan arrived at the office first, which was also what Silly Zhu thought of, the warehouse needs to count the quantity, and it will not come over in a short time

"Feiyan, how many chickens and duck eggs are consumed in the farm canteen every day, and the white noodles are also said."

Listening to Ma Feiyan's report, Silly Zhu weighed it in his heart

"Did you say that the New Year's welfare will give everyone a chicken, I asked Xiaoding to count, the unplanned is enough, there is still a lot left, if the farm workers want to buy it, you can also do it, no food stamps, but each person is limited to one, the number of chickens, ducks and geese is limited and cannot be infinitely supplied"

"Section chief, won't you have a problem doing this, will other departments find trouble when they see it?"

Hearing this stupid pillar is also a little hesitant, yes, if it's okay to send one, it's a bit too much to say about buying, and everyone will definitely buy one when it's cheaper, and other departments think it's going to send 2

"Then forget about the purchase, there is no problem with the New Year's benefits to everyone, other departments will also have their own benefits, I plan to have a chicken per person this year, a pound of eggs, and I am still waiting for the warehouse to count, but it should be soon."

Before getting off work, Silly Zhu received a report from the warehouse that there was a lot of white flour and millet rice, all of which were exchanged for materials by the farm through negotiations between the rolling mill and other units

The most surprising thing for Silly Zhu was that there was still a lot of pork, which was originally used for meals, and there were a lot of water.

However, Silly Zhu decided to marinate these meats, and one person will be given one or two catties to add a meat dish for the New Year

Silly Zhu didn't bother to go back to the courtyard, and hurriedly ran to the canteen office to find Ma Feiyan

"Feiyan, tomorrow from the canteen to transfer four or five hands and feet, just now the warehouse said that there are still a few hundred catties of meat, plus the heart, liver and lungs also have a few hundred catties, I plan to marinate it, and strive to send it to everyone before the year."

"Okay, section chief, I know, I'll arrange it for you tomorrow morning"

Early the next morning, Silly Zhu came to the cafeteria, and saw that the five people arranged by Ma Feiyan were waiting for him, and Silly Zhu asked the three boys to go to the warehouse with him to get things first, and push the trolley over

After the meat arrived in the cafeteria, Silly Zhu asked the two women to wash the meat, and the three men were responsible for cutting the meat and preparing the ingredients themselves. The taste of braised pork depends on this step, and what you also need to pay attention to is the heat

The smell of meat wafted from the canteen for a whole day, which can make the people who come to the canteen to eat greedy, and the stupid pillar saw it and asked people to take out the remaining leftovers for everyone to taste first, and one person can't take a bite, first come, first served, after all, there is not much meat in the warehouse

In the end, a total of 460 catties of sauce meat were made, plus hundreds of catties of other hearts, livers and lungs, just two catties per person, and the rest were given to students and professors of Agricultural University

Originally, Silly Zhu wanted to make chickens into smoked chickens, but Ma Feiyan disagreed, it was good to make it, but it was better to replace it with live chickens for everyone, Silly Zhu thought about it and gave up

When everyone learned that the delicious sauce meat eaten in the canteen at noon was the New Year's benefit that the section chief prepared for everyone, they were excited one by one, you must know that most families have not eaten meat for several months, so they are waiting for the New Year

However, Silly Zhu still made dozens of smoked chickens, one of which he planned to give to Professor Qian, and the other was that he also planned to keep a few for Wen's family or to visit the elders during the New Year

After Silly Zhu tasted the sweetness, he bought some beef in the past few days and made it into sauce beef, which is okay to keep for dinner, and it is good to drink

Soon it was the last day of work at the rolling mill on the 29th of the month, and in the afternoon everyone went to collect their wages as usual. A few days ago, when the students were on vacation, Silly Zhu had already sent smoked chicken and sauce meat, and the three professors also went home to prepare for the New Year during the students' vacation

The benefits of the rolling mill and the welfare of the farm were handed out to everyone before lunch in the morning, and they could take a holiday after everyone received their wages and cleaned up

This year, the welfare of the workers on the farm is unusually good, each person has a pound of eggs, a pound of sauce meat and a pound of braised meat, plus vegetables temporarily picked from the greenhouse, and the welfare of the rolling mill is cloth stamps and grain stamps and meat stamps

The white noodles that were originally going to be issued were canceled by Silly Zhu, because they were requisitioned by the leaders of the rolling mill, but they were replaced with millet and rice, which were not enough to distribute to everyone, so they could only stay in the warehouse

After work, everyone received the benefits of the New Year, and walked towards home with joy, and this year's Chinese New Year's Eve dinner children can eat meat, and they and their father can also drink two more cups. Or some people are old men who want to look up to themselves during the New Year, and these are exchanged for money to make new clothes for the children, and there are all kinds of ideas

Silly Zhu gave Ma Feiyan an extra two smoked chickens and one or two catties of sauce meat, it has been a hard year, and she can spend the New Year happily, and she can also give it to her mother's family as a gift, Ma Feiyan was pregnant with a child in October, and she is not pregnant yet, but she will give birth in the middle of next year

Silly Zhu now plans to help her find a helper, and when she is confined, she can be in charge of the canteen, and when Ma Feiyan comes back, she can be transferred to the greenhouse to be in charge

Silly Zhu has been observing a little girl on the other side of the chicken coop recently, her family background is similar to Liu Lan, but she is very motivated, she has just turned positive at the age of 21 after graduating from junior high school, she is very down-to-earth and has few words

Silly Zhu decided to discuss with Ma Feiyan after the year and let her take this little girl

Silly Zhu was the last to leave the farm, and last year was the last one for Ma Feiyan to leave, but this year Silly Zhu asked her to go back first, and she still had to take care of the pregnant woman. After inspecting the water and electricity, chicken coop, and greenhouse, the stupid pillar also left the farm, and there was no one tomorrow, and someone came to be on duty on the first day of the new year the day after tomorrow, and the inspection was also just in case

Silly Zhu carried the things he had shared, rode a bicycle, and it was about to be the New Year, there were a lot more pedestrians on the road, those who went to school and went to work were on vacation, children set off firecrackers on the side of the road, and the elderly people were not afraid of the cold, and they gathered together to play chess

A few days ago, Silly Zhu brought a set of smoked chicken and braised pork to his home, which will be sent out tomorrow morning, and many of them were bought by Silly Zhu at his own expense, and he did not take advantage of the farm

At noon today, Silly Zhu also went to pick up a small half bucket of milk, gave half of it to Ma Feiyan, and kept the rest for his sister and Mu Xue

Tomorrow morning, Silly Zhu plans to send things out first, and then go to the west yard of the city to clean it, and the house here will be cleaned by the rain tonight, and it will be done in half an hour

Divide things when you get home. Just now at the door, I saw the third master divide a small piece of braised meat with him, so he took two sips of wine, and the third master said thank you to the stupid pillar several times

sent some white noodles to Luo Laohan in the front yard, Yi Zhonghai was held up by himself and Xu Damao last time and couldn't get off the stage, and he paid an extra 2 yuan a month, but in addition to this, Yi Zhonghai didn't even send stick noodles. There is not much white noodles sent by Silly Zhu, enough for two dumplings for grandparents and grandchildren

Luo Laohan asked Xiao Nizi to kowtow to Silly Zhu for the New Year, Silly Zhu hurriedly took out the money but was stopped by Luo Laohan, Luo Laohan also divided the good and the bad, and he also knew that if there was no Silly Zhu, his family's life would probably not be good for even the year

In the past, every year Silly Zhu would send some white flour or meat to their family, and Luo Laohan would occasionally send some rare objects to the two brothers and sisters, which were not valuable, they were all small toys carved by Luo Laohan himself, which could be regarded as playing with the rain

When Silly Zhu received it for the first time, he thought that Luo Laohan was going to buy it, but when he asked, he found out that it was made by others, but he didn't expect this old man to have this craftsmanship

It's also strange that Luo Laohan rarely communicates with the people in the yard, and everyone knows it

Silly Zhu will go to the big leader's house tomorrow afternoon, and the big leader will have his children and nephews come over tomorrow to celebrate the New Year together, and he wants Silly Zhu to help cook a meal

Lou's family also went to Silly Zhu about 3 times this year, and each time Lou Bancheng called the driver to pick him up, but he only made Tan family dishes once, and the other two times were Lu dishes. Every time, the Lou family will send a lot of food, which is not seen in the market or can only be bought at a high price

For this kind of door-to-door cooking, the stupid pillar now generally only goes to the big leader's house or the smell of the family, with the level of the stupid pillar going up, almost all the people who ask the stupid pillar to cook are old friends

"Brother, you're back"

Yushui was wearing a new set of clothes that she bought a few days ago, and Silly Zhu was not free at the time, so she took her to buy it, and bought a Zhongshan suit and a pair of leather shoes for Silly Zhu

"Rain, let's clean the house later, tomorrow will be Chinese New Year's Eve"

"Okay, brother, can you start now?"

Silly Zhu asked the rain to go to the rag first and fetch water himself. Because the house was just renovated this year, it was quite clean, but the New Year was just an atmosphere

The two brothers and sisters began to clean the room lively, and the people in the yard were either making dumpling fillings, and some wealthy ones were like the Lin family in the backyard frying some food

After the brothers and sisters finished cleaning, Silly Zhu took the rain and went to see what meat and vegetables the supply and marketing cooperatives had to buy some, a duck and a goose in the house, and some beef

"Section Chief He is here to buy vegetables, this big section chief also buys vegetables in person, what about your daughter-in-law?"

"Auntie, you're joking, you're not married yet, where is the daughter-in-law?"

In the past two years, because the supply and marketing cooperatives on the farm and the rolling mill are very familiar, sometimes the vegetables that the rolling mill can't run out of will be exchanged with the supply and marketing cooperatives for other materials, and I also know a lot of people in this supply and marketing cooperative

"I'm not married yet, this is a coincidence, Section Chief He, I have a niece in my family, who graduated from high school at 21 this year, and is in a textile factory, or I would like to introduce you to you"

When the eldest sister of the vegetable stall heard that He Yuzhu in front of her was not married, her eyes lit up, if her brother's daughter could become with this He Yuzhu, it would be a good thing

He Yuzhu is in his early 20s, and the rolling mill is a deputy section-level cadre with a salary of 80 per month, where to find this kind of fast son-in-law

"Jianguo, don't introduce it indiscriminately, what does your niece look like, don't talk about Section Chief He, I don't agree to change my son, then I can top 2 of you quickly, if you want me to say that my sister's daughter, 23 years old this year, that long can be called a good-looking, and what kind of female leopard is it when standing with Section Chief He"

"If you don't know how to speak, don't say it, it's still a female leopard, you're a talented female leopard here, it's called a talented woman, why isn't your sister's niece 23 still married, I think everyone doesn't know, the chief of the section has a girlfriend, the little girl who came over a few days ago looks like a fairy, and the key person is still a college student"

Director Guo of the supply and marketing cooperative, walked to the side at this time and heard the words of several people to relieve the silly pillar

Silly Zhu was also ridiculed by this group of old ladies, his face was red, he was really like a wolf and a tiger, and he dared to say anything

When everyone heard the director's words, they also remembered that the girl who came over with Silly Zhu a few days ago was indeed much more optimistic than her juniors, and her temperament was not an ordinary person at first glance

"Director Guo, why are you here?"

Silly Zhu took out a cigarette from his pocket and handed one to Director Guo

"Isn't this the New Year coming soon, there are many people in the supply and marketing cooperatives, and you have to walk around if you have nothing to do to prevent someone from making trouble. Are you here to buy groceries, brother, just come to me when you come back to buy something."

Hearing Director Guo's kind words, Silly Zhu didn't refute it, just said that he was just here to buy some meat, and it wasn't a big deal

"Brother He, don't say that my brother doesn't take care of you, I still have 2 big carps from the Yellow River that I just sent in the morning, I originally planned to keep this thing and give it to others, since you are here, how can I let you go back empty-handed, come to my office"

Hearing the big carp of the Yellow River, Silly Zhu was also a little interested, now the fish doesn't need a ticket, but the big carp of the Yellow River is rare, and he followed Director Guo towards the office

"Huh! What a big guy, golden scales and red tails, authentic Yellow River big carp, how can this one get seven or eight catties"

"This one is 11 pounds, and that one is 10 pounds, all of which I specially selected, and my brother will give these two to my brother when he comes."

Director Guo patted his chest and said that it was nothing, and Silly Zhu also knew why Director Guo would send him something, it was nothing more than wanting the farm to send more vegetables or eggs

"Brother Guo, it's not suitable, or I'll give you money"

"Brother, if you give money, you will slap me in the face, how big are the two fish, just take care of my brother next time I deliver food"

Sure enough, it's the same as Silly Zhu thought, but the problem of the dish is easy to say, the problem is that the chickens, ducks and geese are not guaranteed
