Chapter 140: Divide the Spoils

The cloth bag was placed under the shed, and Chen Xiuyun was thinking about where to put these melons.

She was a little worried, she didn't dig the cellar when she built the new yard, and there were few expensive things at home after all, but there was no place to put these watermelons and small melons, after all, she couldn't eat them for a while.

She poured out all the melons, and the watermelons were directly put on the kitchen floor, and as for the small melon, she gave Jiang Xinyu a green strip of melon for her to eat first, and put the rest under the bed first when she took the rest into the house.

"When your sister comes back, let her take some of it."

The stolen melon was put under the bed, Chen Xiuyun felt uneasy when she slept, thinking that she would eat it quickly in the past two days, and there would be nothing left after eating.

When Chen Xiuyun came back from stealing the melon, the whole person was restless. She thought to herself, she really wasn't the thief's piece of material, she stole the melon back in one breath, and now her heart is full of things.

People, you really can't do bad things.

Jiang Xinyu brought the fried shrimp into the house, "Mom, you taste it, it's delicious." ”

Chen Xiuyun looked at the fried shrimp with reddish yellow, and thought, can it be fried in oil?

Chen Xiuyun pinched one and put it in his mouth, chewed it, swallowed it and said, "This can be left for a few days, and I will go to the county another day to send your sister something to eat." ”

She thought to herself, those "stolen goods" must be disposed of quickly, she should run errands!

The fruits and vegetables of this year are absolutely original, Jiang Xinyu sat under the eaves and ate fragrant long melons and looked at the direction of the courtyard gate.

Zhang Fengmei and her eldest brother Zhang Dali carried the bag to the turtle mountain, the two did not dare to make a big movement, the thing was heavy, for fear of accidentally falling, and the foot was not fast.

After Chen Yi and Li Lei went to Turtle Mountain, they quickly caught up with the backs of the two.

The two of them are far behind, just promise not to lose.

Seeing that the two of them were getting more and more deviated, and finally reached the leeward of a hillside, the figure disappeared there, and within ten minutes, the figures of the two reappeared, one went in the direction of the Shenzhuang brigade, and the other returned the same way.

Zhang Fengmei seemed to be carrying something in her hand.

The two quietly squatted in the grass and watched Zhang Fengmei pass.

The moon was partially obscured by dark clouds, and it was impossible to see what she was holding in her hand.

The two of them squatted in place and waited for a long time, until there was no other movement except for the chirping of insects and birds, and walked towards the back of the slope.

On the slope grows a large tree that is some years old, with lush branches and a large crown.

The two of them didn't take the risk of turning on the small flashlight, and after groping here for a while, they couldn't find any place to hide.

Li Lei leaned his waist and looked around, his feet were unstable, and he fell into the mud, so he didn't bark.

"Chen Yi, this, the soles of my feet are empty." Li Lei shouted in a low voice.

The two of them pulled open a thick layer of grass, and the black hole in front of them was half a person high and only allowed one person to pass through, and after the two of them went in with their bodies low in front and back, the hole became taller, and their waists could be straightened up a little, but they still had to bend over.

The cave isn't damp, so it's a good place to stock up.

Chen Yi turned on the flashlight and illuminated the situation inside the cave.

When he saw the situation in the cave, Li Lei "hissed".

The eight half-man-high bags in front of him were all wheat that had been dried and had not been completely peeled and had not been ground into flour, and one bag was at least twenty kilograms, and these eight bags were conservatively estimated to be one hundred and sixty kilograms.

This year, the national unified purchase price is one pound and one dime and four cents, but if it is sold on the black market, it is more than that.

Although Li Lei is also a good young man who works in the factory step by step, how can he not know about the black market when he grows so big. Who has enough food to eat this year? Don't you have to figure out something?

Eight bags of wheat weren't enough, and there were two bags of unhulled peanuts.

Most of the brigades under the Hongqi Commune plant wheat sandwiched with peanuts and sweet potatoes, and after harvesting the wheat, they will continue to plant corn. With the spare grain left over from last year just in case, wheat and peanuts are definitely not as much as corn. It can be said that corn and sweet potatoes are the main rations.

Because there are indicators above, most of the peanuts and wheat have been handed in, peanuts are definitely rare, and the market price of peanuts that have been shelled is higher than that of wheat, but there are two big bags in front of them.

In addition to wheat and peanuts, there were five bags of fruits and vegetables and some bits and pieces of dry goods.

Li Lei was surprised, "Did these two steal the granary in the team?" ”

Chen Yi touched the dry wheat grains, and Li Lei had a thought in his heart.

He still has a good understanding of people's lifestyles nowadays, and some people may exchange wheat for more other cheap grains, but he doesn't think that people who steal things and sell them will be willing to pay for it. I'm afraid the things in this cave are not coming from the right way.

Chen Yi looked at the dry goods and said, "I can deal with other things in the future, do you want to take these dry goods home and keep them for eating?" ”

Li Lei scratched his head and said: "I don't want to attract attention, there are many people in the family, and gossip will inevitably arouse suspicion." ”

Chen Yi nodded, "That's okay, since you don't want it, I'll take it back." ”

Li Lei said a little embarrassed: "I'll move these things back with you and put them away, if you sell them, just give me ten yuan, and I can save some private money, I don't want more." ”

"There should be people in our factory who want wheat, and when the time comes, I will secretly ask to see if anyone has "changed", but I will have to bother you to send it when the time comes. ”

Before you work, you still have to make it clear how to divide it.

Li Lei was embarrassed to ask for too much, he felt that the things in this cave were worth a hundred yuan, but he couldn't ask for food directly, because there were too many people in his family, and he couldn't tell if he took it back.

What's more, his monthly salary has been handed over to his family, and the family has opened his mouth to eat too much, so he has not saved much private money so far.

Li Lei understands that he can work in the county, his family is contributing, and it is natural for him to return to his family, but this does not conflict with his private money to serve his small family in the future.

Chen Yi said: "Let's sell it for four or six cents, there are still melons from my target family, and I also have to leave some food for her family." ”

It's not that these wheats are too conspicuous and haven't been completely hulled, so Chen Yi won't sell them, and he can eat them for a long time.

But it's a pity that the wheat flour grinding in the brigade is grinding on the ground, and the members are all looking at it. I can grind it at home, but it is too slow to grind, which is very inconvenient.

Li Lei hurriedly refused, and the two talked for a while, and finally settled on three or seven points.

After talking about the "sharing of spoils", Li Lei asked: "My family has no place to hide these things, what about your family?" ”

Chen Yi knew that there was a cellar in his mother's house, so he said, "Let me go." ”

The widow was a cautious and careful person, and the cellar at home was specially used to hide things for many years.
