Chapter 221 Return Home and Give Gifts
After all, what happened at the farm in the western suburbs some time ago had a great impact.
Fortunately, the superior leaders also know that the incubation period of cystic hydatid disease is very strong, and the current leaders cannot be blamed.
Otherwise, Xijiao Farm may have to change its leadership.
Even so, the western suburbs farm suffered heavy losses this time.
A large number of livestock are directly slaughtered and then inspected to confirm that they are not infected with hydatid disease and do not carry worm eggs in their bodies before they are allowed to enter the market.
Once insect eggs are detected, they are directly burned and landfilled.
No one dares to try it, livestock with insect eggs.
Even so, how dare the citizens of Beijing eat pork, beef and mutton in recent times.
What's more, some butcher shops will put up a sign stating that their meat does not come from western suburbs farms.
After all, Zhang Yan gave the Xijiao Farm a prescription for deworming and killing insects that could be given to livestock, otherwise the subsequent impact would be even greater.
"Thank you for your leaders on my behalf! I also have some small gifts here for your leaders. Please take them back." After Zhang Yan accepted the things, he took out ten kilograms of tiger meat and asked the other party to take them back.
This is also a courtesy exchange.
After all, they sent so many things, not just meat, but also flour, rice, millet, soybean oil and so on.
All these things together cost hundreds of dollars.
These things are definitely a great gift in this day and age.
After seeing off the people at the western suburbs farm, Zhang Yan returned to Dongkuaoyuan.
"How to deal with so many things!" Tong Mei looked at the pile of things and said to Zhang Yan with a wry smile.
Having too much stuff and not knowing what to do with it is also a happy worry.
"It's easy to handle. We will go back to our hometown tomorrow and we can take these things back and give them to the lonely elderly people in the village." Zhang Yan said with a smile.
"Well! Give some to the neighbors in the yard as well!
Someone from the farm in the western suburbs just gave something away, and everyone in the yard saw it, so if you don’t give it away at all, it wouldn’t look good.” Tong Mei thought for a while and said.
"Okay! Give one pound of that pork to every family! I'll find a tricycle to take the other rice and noodles back to my hometown tomorrow." Zhang Yan agreed.
Giving a pound of pork to a family is already a great honor.
There are more than ten or twenty families living in the yard, and a pound of meat for one family only costs about ten yuan.
"Give them hind leg meat! The pork belly needs to be reserved for refining." Tong Mei was a little reluctant to give everyone pork belly.
The two of them discussed it, and Zhang Yan took out a knife and started to cut the pork.
"Here, weigh it and see if it's a pound!" Zhang Yan cut off a piece of meat and handed it to Tong Mei.
"One pound, one tael, that's it!" Tong Mei took out the scale, weighed it, and said to Zhang Yan.
"Okay!" Zhang Yan nodded.
Half a fan of pork weighs seventy or eighty pounds. It doesn't matter if it's more or less.
After the first piece was weighed, Zhang Yan started counting from the back. With a casual stroke, the weight was basically floating up and down half a liang.
A pig hind leg was cut into equal-sized pieces of pork in a short while.
"Okay Zhang Yan, your skills are enough to work as a salesperson in a butcher shop." Tong Mei teased.
"I think it will work. If I become a salesperson in a butcher's shop, at least our family will not be short of meat in the future." Zhang Yan grinned.
The butcher shop salesperson in this era is definitely a profession that many people envy.
Just get some pig water and eat it if you can't eat it.
Just look at it and you will know that in this era, all the meat sellers are fat and round, and the children at home are all chubby like little meatballs.
"Do you want my help? Next year all the butcher shops on the street will be brought under the management of our street. It can still be done by arranging you to be the butcher shop manager."
"So good!"
Zhang Yan and Tong Mei were joking and divided the remaining meat into strips, so that the rest were all high-quality pork belly.
I was reluctant to give these to my neighbors, so I kept some of them myself and took the rest back to the village.
After finishing the work, Zhang Yan and Tong Mei worked together to deliver meat from door to door.
I also want to explain the origin of these meats and other things.
"Look, you just keep it for yourself, why are you giving it to us?"
"No, Zhang Yan performed dozens of operations on people in the western suburbs farm some time ago. The leader of the farm arranged for people to deliver a bunch of things.
There’s nothing, just a little pork and some peanuts for the children to try,” Tong Mei said with a smile.
"Otherwise, your life is better for finding such a capable man."
After going around like this, everyone knew that it was because of Zhang Yan's excellent medical skills that the farm leaders gave him so many things.
Although I am envious and jealous, I will not spread rumors about others.
The next day was Sunday, Zhang Yan didn't go to work, so he found a tricycle, loaded up his things, and headed back to his hometown.
Because the Chinese New Year was about to take place, Tong Mei became very busy and had no rest even on Sunday. Zhang Yan could only go home alone.
In addition to pork, beef, mutton, flour, rice and other New Year supplies, there are also a few quilts.
During the Chinese New Year, Zhang Yan will definitely take Tong Mei and the others back to his hometown to celebrate the New Year. Although there is a new house built by Zhang Fusheng for the second and third children in his hometown, it has a fire kang, furniture and other things, but there is no bedding.
This is a normal thing in this era. In an era when it is still difficult to have enough food, who can have extra bedding?
Zhang Yan turned around a few alleys and finally found a quiet, deserted alley. He quickly pedaled his tricycle and turned into the alley.
After looking around to make sure there was no one around, Zhang Yan put the items on the tricycle into the system inventory.
Then he pedaled his tricycle and drove home leisurely.
As long as system space exists, only fools would ride on a fully loaded tricycle.
After arriving at Mentougou, Zhang Yan found a deserted mountain den and took out his things again.
However, what was taken out was much more than what was just put in.
Coincidentally, the system recently rewarded a lot of messy things. Apart from the part Zhang Yan took home with various excuses, there are still many more in the space.
It’s a good time to go home this time and be able to digest some of it.
The most rewarding ones were the more than 30 operations performed by Zhang Yan, and each operation was rewarded with a lot of materials.
It is many times more than what is delivered from the farm in the western suburbs.
"Uncle Hai, it's the Chinese New Year soon, why are you still out herding sheep?" Zhang Yan stopped the tricycle at the entrance of the village, took out his cigarette and greeted Zhang Fuhai.
"Yanzi is back?
I don’t want to let go, but these are living creatures, and it’s not okay to go without food for a day!” Zhang Fuhai took the cigarette and said with a smile.
"What you always say makes sense!" Zhang Yan smiled and handed Zhang Fuquan another cigarette.
"Yanzi, you really pull a lot!" Zhang Fuquan glanced at Zhang Yan's tricycle and said with envy on his face.
Chapter completed!
