Chapter 118 Increase revenue and reduce expenditure 2

Feng Qingxue smiled and said: "Because of Ajiang's respect, no matter how high or low they are, they will all be given to me at eight cents a catty, a total of three thousand two hundred and three hundred catties. Do you want me to be weighed?"

"No, no, you've helped me so much, why can't I trust you?" Feng Shuanzhuo waved his hand hurriedly, and breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.

Eight cents a pound was much beyond his expectation. It was unexpectedly cheap.

As far as he knew, even in the black market, fresh sweet potatoes were sold for fifty cents to one dollar a pound.

Eight cents a pound was really a huge advantage. Feng Qingxue must have put in a lot of effort.

Feng Shuanzhu, who thought about this clearly, not only did not weigh the grain, but directly calculated it as 3,300 jins, and paid 164 yuan to Feng Qingxue from the brigade's public account, and still owed 100 yuan.

Feng Qingxue did not refuse. She could not let the production team develop the idea of ​​getting something for nothing.

Seeing so much food, the accountant was very happy to give money.

The accountant was also from the Feng family, named Feng Teng. According to seniority, Feng Qingxue had to call him third uncle. He and Feng Shuanzhu were cousins.

Feng Shuanzhu specially warned: "Third son, don't let the fourth person know about this matter, lest others know that Xue Ya has connections, and everyone will bother her! Xue Ya is kind-hearted and has spent a lot of effort." We just got this food, we are satisfied.”

"Don't worry, second brother, I know how powerful it is!" Feng Teng patted his chest and looked at Feng Qingxue with a particularly kind look.

Food, even if it is a trustee, the food over there will be less and less.

Who won’t have a difficult time in the future? Maybe he would have to ask Feng Qingxue.

Feng Teng made up his mind to treat Feng Qingxue well, and was glad that he supported the party secretary in giving the house to the two sisters.

As for Feng Qingxue's help, none of them asked carefully.

Feng Shuanzhuan nodded, "It's good that you know. These grains are put into the warehouse to help the emergency, not the poor. We can't let people know that there is so much food in the brigade's warehouse, otherwise everyone will come to ask for it, and how will there be enough food? It will be given to those who are in desperate situations. They have to pay three kilograms every two kilograms, and they have to keep an account and deduct it from their work points. "

Feng Teng has read books and understands people's hearts better, so of course he agrees with Feng Shuanzhu's treatment.

When Feng Qingxue went to pick up her sister and take her home, she took out a bag from her backpack and stuffed it into Feng's hand.

"Second uncle, this is just for you. Thank you for giving us the house we live in now!"

After saying that, Feng Qingxue took her sister home.

After she left, Feng Shuanzhuan opened the bag and saw the contents clearly. His eyes were red again, because he found that the bag was full of black noodles and weighed ten kilograms. His old lady had bad teeth and not many days left, so she kept talking about it every day. Eat dumplings.

Ten pounds of noodles are enough to make several meals of dumplings for the old man.

With this batch of food, there should be no casualties in the Caohu Brigade this winter.

When spring comes, the mountains and plains will be filled with wild grasses and vegetables. As long as those who are diligent will not starve to death.

Feng Qingxue also considered this. She only planned to help the production team for two winters. She could not watch living people starve to death in front of her. She clearly remembered that it was recorded in the book that the three-year difficult period was in 1959. It started in the first half of the year and ended in the first half of 1962. Although life will still be difficult in the future, people will not starve to death as often as in the past three years.

Although there are still a lot of supplies in the space, what is taken out is only a drop in the bucket, but it cannot support the food and drink of so many people. You must be careful in the future, and do not shorten your own family's future rations just because you help others.

The most difficult thing is these three years. If you survive these three years, you will have to reduce the amount of food provided.

Reducing expenditure is not the only way, we must open up resources.
