Start as a farmer from an ordinary world

Chapter 53 Two People Telling the Truth Together
Hearing this, Wang Manyin smiled and asked: "If more food is collected, it will really be more distributed to the members?"

Hearing this, Shaoan fell into silence.

He naturally understood what his brother-in-law meant. More food produced in the fields did not mean more food was distributed to the members of the commune.

Now there is a saying, "Is it enough, three hundred and sixty. Whether you do it or not, you will have food."

The meaning is very straightforward, no matter how much grain the production team produces in the field, the farmers can only be allocated a maximum of 360 catties per year, which is capped.

As for the extra food, it is to support the higher-ups, and the production team has no right to deal with it...

If you share too much in private, it is a "secret distribution of property" and you will make a mistake.

However, if the actual grain harvested by the production team is less than the standard of 360 catties, they can eat the returned grain from above to make up the shortfall.

From this point of view, it really is "whether you do it or not, you have something to eat."

That being the case, why do you have to work hard.

Sun Shaoan didn't think about it at all before, but now that his brother-in-law said it, he felt like there was a cloud of fog in his head, and he couldn't figure out what was going on?

He said unwillingly: "Brother-in-law, is there no solution? We farmers can only be the sufferers for the rest of our lives."

"There is a solution, but you can't do it." Wang Manyin said vaguely.

To put it bluntly, it means "concealment of property and private distribution".

In this regard, southerners are very flexible.According to a survey conducted by later generations, among the nearly 48 production teams in a town in the south, except for 200 teams who voluntarily and truthfully reported their output, the remaining 82 teams concealed their output, accounting for [-]% of the total production teams.

However, this method has great risks, and Wang Manyin does not want his brother-in-law to stumble on it.

After a moment of silence, he asked again: "Shao'an, do you want to take root in the countryside for the rest of your life, or go out? Be a worker, or something else."

"If there is a chance, of course I would like to go out." Sun Shaoan replied without hesitation.

He has a restless heart in his bones, but he can't find other ways in this age, so he can only vent his energy in the fields.

"Then wait for the opportunity, there will always be..."

In fact, the upward channels for farmers in this era have not been completely blocked.

On the one hand, you can jump out of the farm by serving as a soldier. If you do well in the army, you can be promoted.On the other hand, it is through recruiting workers to eat commodity food.

As far as Wang Manyin knew, every year the upper management would give the commune some recruitment indicators, and some of them would be assigned to the various brigades in the end.

Of course, these indicators are not in the hands of ordinary members at all, and have been digested internally as early as in the brigade.

Another one is that workers, peasants and soldiers recommend going to college.

It is these outlets that Wang Manyin is eyeing.

Although it is difficult, it depends on whether you can grasp it or not.

As long as it works well, there is still a certain chance to jump out of the farm.

"Shao'an, now there are some words that you can only listen to but not believe. You have to think about everything yourself, and you can't follow what others say... No matter what era, being a pure farmer has no future. If you want to live this rotten life well, there is a way out. It can only be outside. So don’t stare at the one-acre three-point land in the village, you should take a long-term view... You should gradually realize these words, and don’t tell others.”

Regarding the future of his brother-in-law, Wang Manyin said a lot in one breath, many of which were taboo.He also dared to say that because he knew that his brother-in-law would definitely not sue him.

There is a famous saying in later generations that is very appropriate for the present, "Two people tell the truth together, three people tell gossip together, and four people tell nonsense together."

With Wang Manyin's prudence, if there is a third person by his side, he wouldn't say these words to death.

"I know you're doing it for my own good, brother-in-law, I won't tell anyone this." After listening to the analysis, Sun Shaoan's understanding of his brother-in-law improved a lot.

Brother-in-law is really underestimated!

His father, Sun Yuhou, did not go to school and had been a suffering person all his life. He was very eloquent when it came to growing crops and serving livestock.But for the principles of life, there is not much experience that my father can impart.All I know is to tell him to be honest and responsible, and when encountering injustice, bear with it and let it go...

These sound great, but they don't solve the actual problem.

People are kind and bullied, and if they are too honest, they will only be looked down upon by others as counselors.

On this point, Sun Shao'an had already experienced it from his second mother, He Fengying.

When the second mother first married the second father, relying on a few days of schooling, she didn't pay attention to their family at all, and scolded his mother with dirty words every now and then, and sometimes even pulled out the dead grandpa to scold him.

At this time, my father didn't know how to deal with it, he just squatted in the cave with his head in his arms, like a log.

Or later, Shaoan was scolded anxiously, so he just ignored it, and stepped forward to beat He Fengying hard.At that time, it caused many people to watch the joke, and no one could persuade him. He Fengying's nose and mouth were bleeding from the beating.

Since then, the second mother never dared to insult his family wantonly, and she was polite when she saw her mother.

It was also from that day on that Shaoan knew that what his father said was not necessarily correct.

Now, after listening to what his brother-in-law said, Sun Shaoan felt that he had benefited a lot.

Completely subverted my life cognition of more than ten years, and the layers of fog that had shrouded my mind before were peeled off.

He completely dismissed the idea of ​​being the production team leader, nodded his head heavily and said, "I'll listen to you, the production team leader should let someone else do it."

Seeing that the other party really listened, Wang Manyin didn't say any more.

You don't need a heavy hammer to beat the drum, and my brother-in-law is a smart man himself.

He changed the subject again and mentioned that his old father-in-law had planned to pay back the debt he owed him.

"Shao'an, you and our dad don't have to worry about the marriage debt. I told you last time that I can actually pay it back."

Of course, Wang Manyin appreciates the kindness of the old father-in-law's family.

But seeing people frugal to raise money for him, he didn't have the cheek to accept it, so he simply let Shao'an out in front of him.

"Understood," Sun Shaoan nodded.

Brother-in-law does this, he can guess one or two.

It was getting dark early in winter, and when business was done, Wang Manyin called Lan Hua to leave.

Lan Xiang watched her sister leave, crying and shouting to follow.

Although Shaoping didn't say a word, there was longing in his eyes.

Since the brother-in-law's family opened a consignment store, their father stopped them from going there.

Wang Manyin readily agreed: "Dad, let Shaoping and the others go and play for a long time. It happens that they are preparing to stew minced meat at night. I will bring it back after dinner."

"Where are you going? You are driving a consignment store, and people are busy coming and going." Sun Yuhou shook his head again and again, saying nothing.

He was afraid that his two children would not know the seriousness, and went to take things indiscriminately, which made the eldest son-in-law unhappy.

"It's okay, there are no people at night. Let's go, Shaoping, Lan Xiang!" As he said, Wang Manyin took the two children and walked out of the cave.

"I can't go, I will cause trouble." Old man Sun hurriedly stopped his youngest son.

"Dad, look at what you said, what trouble is there for my eldest daughter's family." Lan Hua also interjected to persuade.

"Hey...you can't take things randomly when you go to your brother-in-law's house." Sun Yuhou saw that the two of them made way, so he couldn't stop him anymore, but kept telling the two children.

After watching his son-in-law and eldest daughter leave, he asked about the business.

"Shao'an, what did your brother-in-law say?"

Because of whether to be the production team leader, the father and son had some disputes in the past two days.

"Brother-in-law is very good. I don't plan to be the production team leader anymore. Let's take care of our family first." Sun Shaoan replied vaguely.

Now that he has promised his brother-in-law, he will not tell anyone about some things.

Hearing his son's remarks, Sun Yuhou was a little depressed.

The son can't help his father, Shao'an is a man of his own mind.

He has been talking dryly for the past two days, but he never nodded.

The eldest son-in-law came to make his son change his mind.

This bum, he has a good mouth... No wonder he can coax a big girl into marrying him.
