Chapter 525 Indulgence
But it was a pity that the excitement had already ended when Han Li and the others arrived.

Later, I heard that Village Chief Zhao and Captain Liang came over after getting the news and scolded the Zhang family members. They also said that the accountants would not even think about the trouble they caused today, even if Zhang Chaomei didn't do it. I won’t do it for these families.

However, Wang Chunhua single-handedly fought off a group of uncles who bullied her sister-in-law with a knife. This made her name once again resounding in Shanghe Village. As time went by, she became more and more famous in the ten miles and eight towns.

The next day, everyone came to the grain drying field early in the morning with various moods, because today was the first day of the fixed work point system, and everyone wanted to see what the regulations were.

Since it is not yet the time for the autumn harvest, during this period the village only has land clearing (logging, moving rocks), weeding, plowing, watering the ground, cutting pigweed, accumulating manure, cleaning ditches, etc., and every kind of work is available. Corresponding workload and corresponding work points.

The more tiring the work, the higher the reward, such as clearing land, logging, moving rocks, etc.

Other farm work can only be considered average, but getting the full ten centimeters requires a huge amount of work.

As for the easy tasks of cutting pig grass and collecting manure, they have always been reserved for the elderly and children in the village, and have never been assigned before.

But today is different. Since it is the first day that the quota system has been implemented, the village committee has listed all the tasks that can be done now, including cutting pig grass and collecting manure.

No one else would take these two kinds of jobs now, nor would they have the nerve to take them. This is a tacit rule among everyone. After all, everyone will grow old one day, and every family has old people and children.

And no matter how much the work points are, these jobs are actually to find some work for these people, so that the elderly will not feel that they can only eat idle food when they are old. He also does his part in the village, putting cages on the children for them to raise. It becomes a good habit, and let them know that labor is not easy.

The old man with still strong legs and feet carries a basket on one shoulder and a short-handled shovel in the other hand, wandering around the road picking up manure. The old people and children with weak legs and feet will cut pig grass around the village. These are all things that everyone follows the rules.

But today was different. When Ma Runping came up, she saw the task of cutting pig grass, so she quickly called her roommate to join her.

"Li Yan, look at how good this task of cutting pigweed is. It's easy and has free work points. Let's grab this task quickly."

Ma Runping's words directly caused all the surrounding villagers to look over with unkind expressions. After all, Yuan Hongying had been here for two more years and knew the twists and turns. She couldn't bear to see her roommate being targeted, so she quickly stepped forward and pulled Ma Runping's arm. whispered in her ear.

"Runping, these jobs are reserved exclusively for the elderly and children in the village. Under normal circumstances, there is no one for the adults to take over."

When Yuan Hongying said this, Ma Runping immediately noticed something was wrong in the eyes of the surrounding villagers. Before she could speak, Wang Congfei, a male educated youth who arrived in the same group as her, stood up and said heroically.

"Why? Isn't it put on the task board just for everyone to do? Otherwise, why would it be put out? Are the old people and children in the village human beings and we educated youth not human beings? If they can do it, we can't? This is the difference. Treat communism."

Comrade Ma Runping doesn't need to care about other people's opinions. He can take whatever job he wants. Now we have a fixed work-point system. As long as we have work-point income every day, it doesn't count as escaping from work. The captain can't dictate too much to us. If you feel embarrassed, , then I will accompany you to take over this task of cutting pigweed. "

But who is Ma Runping? She took two steps back gently and said apologetically.

"I'm sorry, I didn't know this was the case, and my roommate agreed last night that we would go plowing together today. Comrade Wang Congfei, if you want to take over the task of cutting pigweed, please do it. We can do it together next time. work."

After Ma Runping finished speaking, without waiting for Wang Congfei to speak, she took Liu Liyan beside her and received the task of turning the rice seedlings and left directly.

Wang Congfei also took on the task of plowing the rice fields and followed Ma Runping and the others toward the field. However, what the two of them did quickly spread among the villagers, especially what Wang Congfei said. It has been processed a lot.

The two of them have violated the interests of everyone in Shanghe Village. Although it is a fixed work point system, someone will soon teach them some principles of life.

The clerk found out all kinds of problems with the rice plowing task they took on that day. The rice plowing was not thorough, the seedlings were broken, and the excess branches were not cut off when turning the rice seedlings. These were all Points will be deducted.

Moreover, the clerk said that there was nothing wrong with the work, but they couldn't find an excuse even if they wanted to refute it. So on the first day of the quota of work points, they did the same farm work as before and only received 2 work points in the end.

The matter is not over here. When it comes to finding trouble in the fields, people like Ma Runping and Wang Congfei who have just returned to the countryside cannot catch up with the sharp-eyed recordkeepers on horseback. They are always silenced by others. So they obviously worked a lot in the next few days, but the work points they received in the end were pitiful.

In the past few days, Hou Yuhua began to try to form a team with others, but only when weeding and turning over rice seedlings, others would agree to form a team without any care. As for other farm work, it was very realistic.

Not to mention the heavy labor like clearing land, even the farm work of clearing ditches, many people were reluctant to team up with her, but they didn't refuse her once or twice because of face, but after a long time, it's hard to say .

Hou Yuhua is not a fool. She knows this situation very well, so today she took on the weeding task for two working points. After finishing it, she went to the agency to find the Yun sisters.

"Sister Yun..."

That evening, Hou Yuhua's figure appeared in the yard of Han Li's house, and Yun Jingjing called her in.Next, after Hou Yuhua talked about his current difficulties and his intention to go into the mountains with Han Li to collect herbs, what follows is Han Li's double act, or should I say triple act.

Because Yun Yingying also played, although Hou Yuhua couldn't tell who was who, this did not affect her gratitude to the two sisters.

Hou Yuhua said that the Yun sisters were helping him, and it took a while before Han Li nodded and agreed.

Then Han Li took Yun Yingying and Hou Yuhua to visit the homes of Village Chief Zhao and Captain Liang, and then the matter was finally settled.

However, Han Li did not immediately take Hou Yuhua into the mountains to collect herbs. Instead, he asked her to collect buds and bugs from the surrounding area with Qi Zhaodi to make food for the flying dragon. The excess would be dried in the shade and used in the winter.

In fact, the one who had the biggest impact of the fixed work points was Han Li. After everyone left for work and the streets were empty, he could go to He Mi's house to experience it and enjoy the scenery of the mountains and the sun without restraint.

But now it’s no longer possible. I don’t know who has received the task of how many work points, let alone who will come back from the fields at what time.

This added a lot of difficulties to Han Li. Every time he went to He Mi's place, he had to be careful and let the crows help keep tabs on him.

The six crows Han Li brought from Forty-Nine City have also been quite impressive recently, and they actually reproduced offspring here.

The three teams of crows had at least four little crows, and as many as six little crows.

It's not that there is no custom in Sijiu City not to kill crows. Han Li is afraid that too many crows will arouse the resentment of the villagers. Then it will be bad if he cuts down the trees and removes the crows' nests.

So after these little crows took off at the full moon and were able to move independently, Han Li asked the old crows to lead them all to settle deep in the mountains. As for whether the place would be renamed Crow Ridge because of the increase in crows, he didn't know.

However, Hou Yuhua's situation was soon discovered by educated youths and villagers. Although it was not known what she was doing by collecting those tree buds and grass buds, it was obviously an easy job similar to cutting pigweed.

Immediately, many people began to inquire. Those who had a good relationship with the Han Li family soon found out that it was the truth. However, Hou Yuhua’s congenital shortcomings were there. Considering Hou Yuhua’s flattery to the Han Li family, they felt that Han Li and his wife were loyal. , I won’t treat my friends badly, and I can really help them when it’s critical.

Among them, Hao Hongmin's thoughts were the most complicated, because others could still look forward to the recruitment and enrollment quotas, but she couldn't see any future at all.

Among the people she is currently in contact with, only Han Li is most likely to be helpful in changing her situation, but her personality does not allow her to curry favor with the Yun sisters like Hou Yuhua, so there seems to be only one way left.

And those educated youths with average connections and newly arrived educated youths will not be able to get any useful information at all for a while, and some of them will start to make camps everywhere.

But this is Shanghe Village. Now the village is almost overcrowded with easier jobs. Even Yang Xiuying’s current scorekeeper has many people thinking about it. It’s just that Yang Xiuying gave up a job quota before changing it. For a while, no one could say anything, so almost all the educated youths who came to camp turned back.

However, during this period, the situation of educated youth in other villages was much more serious than that in Shanghe Village. Due to the implementation of quota work points, most of them had already let themselves go, and some people did not even work for a day.

Since these educated youths could not travel far without a letter of introduction, they went around looking for educated youths from the same city, classmates, and batches to play with.

When this wind hit Hongqi Commune, it aroused the impulse of many educated youths. They began to stop working and gathered in groups nearby to gather, play and chat.

The educated youth in Shanghe Village are no exception. The old educated youth are a little more stable because they have all suffered from starvation to one degree or another.

But the four newly arrived educated youths Wang Congfei, Sun Yingming, Liu Liyan, and Ma Runping have no such worries. In addition, they are at the age of indulgence. Some people get excited and go out with their classmates without considering their own situation. .

Village Chief Zhao wanted to stop this situation at first, but Captain Liang said something bitterly at this time.

"Uncle Zhao, if the county doesn't care, the commune doesn't care, and other brigades don't care, then we don't care either. From today on, no matter the old or new educated youth are allowed to advance grain from the village, the grain will be distributed strictly according to work points. Not even a grain of grain is enough. Once they have suffered the pain of starvation, they will work conscientiously. Isn’t this much better than us standing up and being evil people?”

"I'm afraid that these young people will go astray at that time."

  The infusion is continuing today, but the nurse lady Li Liuzhen has completed the evolution on me, and today’s injection hit the target.
