"I don't know. I just mentioned it and didn't think about it. Didn't I just want to ask you two?"
"This method is indeed feasible, but why is it so easy to get two working points every day?" Chen Enpeng asked
"I would like to fight more, but if I fight too much, you think the people in the team will have no objections. Besides, the two work points are just right."
After Chen Enpeng thought about it carefully, he said: "It is true. If you can earn two work points a day, the two of us can probably earn one work point."
"One work point is considered good. At least next year we can spend less money to buy some food," Chen Junjie said
"You are right, but what Mianmian just said, the most important thing is how to put the herbs. This is a problem."
"Originally I planned to put it in a nylon bag, but the summer is too hot and the nylon bag is not breathable. I am afraid that the herbs will not be usable by then."
"What if it's the cloth bag we usually use? That one is breathable."
"This is indeed possible, but you will have to use a large backpack then."
"The big basket is just a big basket. Just use the pole to carry it when the time comes. Just put the firewood on the basket and carry it together. You can still have free time to carry the basket. What do you think?" Chen Junjie asked
Chen Enpeng and I thought about it and said: "You are so smart."
"That's right" he said and became proud.
"In this way, we can earn work points by cutting hogweed, dig herbs, and prepare dry firewood for the house. We don't have to rush to prepare firewood for the winter after the autumn harvest. Then we can still spend more time in the house. Finding food on the mountain is no worse than other families in the brigade," said Chen Junjie
"It's true" Chen Enpeng said
"Mianmian, don't you plan to do more work as usual?"
"Why do you work so much? I'm not 14 years old yet this year. It's the time to grow taller. I just need to work more during the busy farming period. I don't want to grow short."
"All right"
"In this way, the two of us will have about 2010 work points next year. It will be calculated based on the grain distribution this year, not counting other things. It will only count the sweet potatoes we received, plus the rations, deducting the winter food, and grinding them into sweet potatoes. There are also 328 kilograms of noodles, plus other grains and food found on the mountain, so it seems that we really don’t have to pay for food anymore.”
"It's true," Chen Junjie said after a while.
"This premise is before you start a family and start a business."
"It's a bit early to say this, isn't it?" Chen Enpeng said
"That's right" I said
"By the way, we've been counting for a long time, but the private land hasn't been counted yet?" Chen Junjie suddenly thought of asking.
After hearing what he said, he said: "It's true."
"The private land is only one piece of land. Apart from half of the vegetables, the other half of the land is also planted with sweet potatoes. A rough estimate is that it weighs about 200 kilograms."
"That's a lot," Chen Junjie said
In this way, the three of us did not eat food on credit in the team like the educated youths in other brigades.But when we received the food today, the team did not deduct the food for the month we first arrived. It seems that it was deducted during the Chinese New Year.This is planned to be calculated during the Chinese New Year!By that time, the people in the brigade were all wheat, corn, and some miscellaneous grains.But let’s not talk about wheat, let’s talk about corn. This needs to be threshed before it can be handed in. It seems that in a few days, we will have to work in the snow every day. Alas, it’s really sad. It’s too cold outside.
But no matter what, I have to go to the city quickly while I haven't started work in the past two days. One is to go to the post office to send something to Uncle Shen, Senior Brother Zhang, and the eldest brother. Send the New Year gifts in advance. When the heavy snow closes the mountain, it will be impossible to go out.
The other one is to receive the subsidy. As for whether to go to the grain store, we will decide after looking at the tickets.Another thing is to go to Uncle Zhou and Uncle Ma and give them some mountain products. It can also be considered as a New Year's gift in advance.I used all the expired tickets when I went to the supply and marketing cooperative, otherwise they would have expired and become invalid if I left them there.
Now that you have thought of this, let’s start preparing.But what to prepare?There are walnuts, pine nuts, hazelnuts, chestnuts, mushrooms, and fungus at home. There are also jujubes, dried peaches, dried apples, persimmons in the space, and the wild boar meat that the third and fourth brothers caught last time.What should I give as a gift?
Also, even if each item is packed with one kilogram, such a family must have 10 kilograms. Just giving it to you personally will not be outstanding, but if you give it according to the details, it will be too outstanding and easily attract the attention of others.Not to mention other things, just the military area and military hospital, the total is sixty or seventy. If each family weighs ten kilograms, it is six to seven hundred kilograms.No, this absolutely won't work.
The last two packages sent to the military area and military hospital contained fungus, mushrooms and dried peaches. These three items were taken out first.Dried apples, now is the time when apples are on the market. Besides, it’s snowing where I live now, so there is no way to dry apples, and this won’t work either.Since apples can’t be dried, persimmons can’t be made either. Not to mention that it takes time to make persimmons, let’s just say that we have been harvesting for 50 consecutive days. In addition, when we go up the mountain to either prepare dry firewood or find food, this won’t work either. Let go.
This works out to less than half. Each family packs five kilograms, which adds up to more than 300 kilograms!Isn't it possible to send it to one place?Then pretend!
In this way, after finishing the installation, I first copied the details of the military region and military hospital, and then began to write letters to each place respectively.The general contents of the letters are the same. First, they say hello to their elders, then they ask how their health is lately, and then they explain the reasons for wishing them an early New Year.Then he talked about some things that happened here in detail, such as going to the mountains to collect herbs and handing them over to the village to the commune purchasing station. He also described the rush to harvest during the autumn harvest. The team members collectively went up the mountain to prepare dry firewood for the winter. The most important description was Let’s talk about the food distribution situation.I also told how many work points I had earned since joining the brigade, how much grain I had been assigned, and how much grain I had bought.This means that I have prepared enough to eat until next year when I distribute the food, so there is no need for the elders to worry.
I also put my plans for next year in the letter, telling them that I am a child with plans and will not treat myself badly.In fact, there is another implicit meaning, which is that you don’t have to send yourself things all the time.
After everything was ready, I started packing the packages, but I found that there were still quite a lot of bags, almost four large bags.But it doesn't matter. Let's carry it on a pole tomorrow. It only happens once or twice a year.
After finishing everything, I thought about going to the city tomorrow to sell the medicinal materials in the space and sell a batch of eggs.As for the persimmons and other things in the space, just save them first and wait until spring comes tomorrow to go to the city before selling them, or put them directly in the space, like eggs, and wait for you to sell them later.
"This method is indeed feasible, but why is it so easy to get two working points every day?" Chen Enpeng asked
