"Uncle, why do you say that again? That brigade's food is always substandard."
"That's right. Every year they bring it in, they say it's unqualified!" Uncle Shen knew Chen Congming a little bit. He was just too honest. In fact, whether the grain was qualified or not was just a matter of a word from the staff.
Having paid public grain for so many years, the people in the brigade could not possibly be unaware of the standards for collecting grain. Uncle Shen didn't believe that the grain was not thoroughly dried.
In other words, Chen Congming didn't know how to adapt. He could give himself a convenience by giving a pack of cigarettes, and he and the people in the team didn't have to go through so much trouble.
Every year they were said to be unqualified. Shen Shuyu watched other team leaders secretly stuff cigarettes into the staff members' mouths and figured out something.
This was the first time Shen Shuyu saw the grand scene of paying public grain in this era, and it was also the first time she truly felt the situation of paying public grain. In eight words, it can be described as: very tiring, very hard, and very sad!
Before daybreak, we have to bring the grain here and line up. The process of handing over the grain is complicated and lengthy. If everything goes well, we can do it in one go. If not, we have to bring it here and then bring it back again.
The teams that arrived late had to spend the night here. There was no other way. It was not their turn, and when the food was delivered, they had to keep an eye on it all the time.
If the harvest was bad, the brigade would not have much grain left after paying the public grain tax, and they would not get much rations. They worked so hard, but in the end they could not even get half full. Isn't that sad? Even Shen Shuyu, who didn't do farm work, felt sad, not to mention those who worked in the fields every day.
Shen Shuyu came out of the grain station and saw a long queue. Shen Shuyu was somewhat glad that their team arrived early, because the teams that arrived later didn't know how long they would have to wait in line.
Gu Jiandong walked beside Shen Shuyu, his tall figure blocking most of the sun for her. He grinned, "Shuyu, I want popsicles, soda, and rock sugar water!"
"Okay, let's go buy it!"
Shen Shuyu, Shen Erzhu, and Uncle Shen said, "Second Grandpa, Uncle, Gu Jiandong and I are going to the supply and marketing cooperative for a walk and will be back later. You can go back first and don't wait for us."
Shen Erzhu nodded! "Okay!"
When Shen Jiawei heard that his elder sister was going to the supply and marketing cooperative for a while, he pushed her bicycle over and said, "Sister, bicycle!"
Shen Shuyu took the bicycle and said, "Brother, do you want to go to the supply and marketing cooperative with us?"
Shen Jiawei was very sleepy. He had no interest in visiting the supply and marketing cooperative and waved his hand, "I want to go home and sleep."
Shen Erzhu drove the ox cart and said, "We are going back. Don't play too late, go home and rest early."
The ox cart can seat more than a dozen people. On the way back, except for Shen Erzhu who sat in the front driving the ox cart, no one sat in the back.
The cows were an important asset to their team. After pulling two loads of food, everyone was afraid that the cows would be tired and wanted to let them rest for a while. Naturally, no one rode on the cows when they went back!
The grain station is not far from the supply and marketing cooperative, just a few hundred meters ahead. Shen Shuyu was riding a bicycle with Gu Jiandong again. The bicycles were very fast, and they arrived at the supply and marketing cooperative in just a few turns!
As soon as they arrived at the supply and marketing cooperative, Shen Shuyu stepped on the brakes and Gu Jiandong let go of his long legs, and the bicycle stopped steadily. Shen Shuyu put the bicycle away, and the two entered the supply and marketing cooperative. Gu Jiandong pulled Shen Shuyu and strode towards the place where popsicles and sugar water were sold.
"I want two old popsicles, two bowls of mung bean soup, and two bottles of orange-flavored soda."
Gu Jiandong is tall and has an aura that cannot be ignored. In addition, his strong and deep face makes him very popular with girls.
Look, the female popsicle seller blushed when she saw her. She must have just started working. Her dark eyes seemed to say "I love my job and serve the people" in ten big words.
The woman selling popsicles had a red face, but she was very skillful in getting popsicles and sodas for Gu Jiandong. "Do you have anything to pack mung bean soup?"
