Chapter 250 Explaining the confusion and telling you why you are poor
With a pair of gold bracelets, Peng Tou could comfortably become a master at home. He was always taken care of when washing his face and changing clothes, and even when he was eating, he was fed.
Rural people don't have much to do at night, and they all go to bed early. By 8 o'clock, there are almost no people on the road, and most of them stay at home and watch TV.
The households in Hongxing Village all had TVs. After having dinner together at the village committee, they returned to their respective places, and some watched it with the host family.
After watching TV for a while, some simply went to bed, waiting for the collective work tomorrow.
Gradually, fewer and fewer houses in the village turned on their lights, until around ten o'clock in the middle of the night, minibuses once again drove into the village.
Without honking the horn, the village chief had already made all the arrangements he needed to make. He led the car directly to the village committee and heated up the meals he had prepared.
"As soon as everyone has finished eating, we will spend the night in our village committee. We will allocate a place for everyone tomorrow. It is too late today and all the villagers have gone to bed."
While placing food and serving dishes for everyone, the village chief explained.
In the courtyard of the village committee, there are two rooms, both of which are large shops. No one has lived in them for a long time. Now we can only let the helpers who come later to deal with them first.
There is one room for men and one room for women, which is just enough for sleeping.
In this way, the night was spent peacefully.
It was dawn the next morning, and the later helpers who were sleeping in the village committee were awakened by a burst of jingling bells and laughter.
But it was the female comrades who were cooking who came early to cook for the helpers.
"Sister-in-law, how much does this rice cost?"
"Let's have ten bowls. I have to work in the fields today. I want the rice porridge to be dry to resist hunger."
"Okay, then just listen to my sister-in-law."
There were bursts of smoke and smoke in the kitchen, and a large pot of white rice porridge was boiling in the cast iron cauldron.
On the other stove, several steamed steamed buns were steamed.
"Okay, that's almost it. Let's ring the bell and ask people to come over for dinner."
The elder sister-in-law looked at it and saw that breakfast was almost ready, so she said to the young daughter-in-law at the door.
"Then I'll ring the bell."
This little daughter-in-law was newly married to this village, and her cooking skills were a little poor, so she started cooking with her elder sister-in-law.
In a few steps, he arrived at the courtyard of the village committee, took out an iron rod from the iron clock, and began to knock on the small iron clock.
Dangdangdang...
A rapid sound of iron bells almost spread throughout the whole village.
The village chief came in from outside and happened to see the young daughter-in-law ringing the bell.
"Listen, stop knocking. What age is this? We don't need that thing a long time ago. I'll use the radio to notify everyone to eat."
The sister-in-law walked out of the kitchen with an iron basin filled with rice porridge in both hands. When she heard the village chief's words, she also laughed and replied:
"It's not that good. This thing doesn't work like a radio. Stop knocking. My wife, please go inside and get the dishes."
"Why."
The little daughter-in-law responded and put the iron rod back again.
The helpers from Hongxing Village who lived in the village committee had already started to get up from their beds when they heard the bell. After getting dressed, they walked out of the room one after another.
"Attention, villagers! Attention, villagers! Today is sunny and sunny. It is a good day for harvesting. We all quickly prepared our things. After breakfast, we will start to go to the fields to collect grain. Then
The families who provide accommodation will rush to the village committee immediately and ask the helpers to come over for dinner. I will take over your land first in a while."
The sound of the loudspeaker resounded in the sky above the village.
"Did you hear that, shopkeeper? You hurry up and take the two helpers to the village committee. I'm going to clean up the grain stacks at home. I have to collect our land first today. I won't be able to catch up after cleaning up."
"Okay, you can take care of things at home. I'll send them over for dinner. After that, I'll follow you to the fields."
As soon as the couple heard the content of the broadcast, they started to move one after another.
The other families are almost the same.
In the courtyard of the village committee, more than thirty helpers from Hongxing Village finally gathered together. Each one was carrying a big rice box, holding a steamed bun in one hand, and started eating with pickles and boiled eggs.
Start eating.
"Master Liu, the food in this village is really good. You can even make hard-boiled eggs." Liu Xiaozi filled his lunch box with four peeled boiled eggs and squatted next to Master Liu while eating.
He said while sitting.
"This village is rich. If you take a look at the old women who cook, you will see that none of them has a few pieces of gold jewelry, especially the young daughter-in-law. The big gold bracelet on her wrist is worth less than 8,000 yuan.
None of them can get off."
"Master Liu, you said we are all farmers, how come they are so rich, and why are we so poor?" Liu Xiaozi asked.
"Yes, we are all farmers, why are we so poor?"
Mr. Liu also sighed, looking at the life of others, and then thinking about the life of his own family, it is really incomparable.
Tu tu tu tu…
Tu tu tu tu…
Outside the village committee compound, the distinctive roar of a tractor came from far to near.
After a while, several villagers from the village wearing straw hats walked in.
"Village Chief, the cars are coming."
"Okay, come in and eat, and then go to the ground after you finish eating." The village chief heard this and said to the villagers.
Peng Tou became a big man at home last night, and the old couple also had a lot of trouble. They got up a little late in the morning, and were not woken up until they were woken up by the loudspeaker in the village.
As soon as they entered the yard, the village chief saw Peng Tou and proactively said, "Uncle Peng is here. He hasn't eaten yet. Let's deal with him here."
"It's okay, don't worry about me, I'll just fool you."
Peng Tou was not polite and took a lunch box by himself, took a spoonful of porridge and started eating.
The village committee's daily necessities, such as firewood, rice, oil and salt, were all brought by Peng Toula, so he naturally had no scruples.
After everyone finished breakfast, it was only 5 o'clock.
People who work in the fields in rural areas always go to the fields early in the morning, because it is the coolest time at this time, and with the early morning sunshine, people do not suffer so much when harvesting the fields at this time.
Otherwise, if you wait until noon, the sun will be strong and scorching, and the ground will be hot and stuffy, and people will easily suffer from heatstroke.
Four tractors were attached to the carriages, carrying people, and drove toward the crop fields.
"Why are these crops growing so well? Oh my god, this guy looks so strange."
"It's not that kind of land. It's such a big piece of land, it must be more than ten acres. It belongs to several families."
In the carriage, the villagers of Hongxing Village saw the continuous crop fields and discussed.
In the car, the villagers driving the tractor laughed loudly when they heard this. Peng Tou sat in front and turned around and said:
“These are the lands belonging to one family, where do these families come from?”
"That's right. In our area, no one has more than ten acres of land. This is considered a small amount. Others have dozens of acres of land."
"How is this possible? How can so much land be divided?"
"That's right, everyone is under the 'two-field system'. How did you get so much land? Are they all private land? It's impossible. You can't make any money farming this way."
When the villagers of Hongxing Village in Chedu heard what Peng Tou said, they couldn't believe it and started talking one after another.
Ha ha···
"Uncle Peng really didn't lie to you. Our village is still like this. Every family has more than ten acres of land." The young man driving the tractor said loudly.
Peng Tou said at this time: "At first glance, you are being deceived. You don't know anything. You also don't understand anything about policies."
"What are you talking about?"
"That's right, we are all farmers, so what do you mean we don't understand?"
Among the helpers in Hongxing Village, when they heard what Peng Tou was saying and had a gun and a stick, some of them immediately lost their anger and spoke out in reply.
Seeing that the conversation had already started, Peng Tou laughed in his heart. But he said provocatively again:
"You still don't believe me if you say you don't understand. Let me ask you, do you know how much farmland, how many fish ponds, and how many forest farms there are in your village?"
As soon as these words came out, the villagers of Hongxing Village were really shocked.
Everyone, look at me and I look at you. No one can give an answer.
When no one answered, Peng Tou continued to ask: "I'm asking you, how much is the ration field assigned to you by your village for each person?"
"I know this. Each person has 4 points of land, and each person has 0.4 acres of grain fields."
A helper from Hongxing Village immediately answered first.
Hearing this, Peng Tou asked again: "Then do you know how much each person's share of this grain field is determined?"
"I don't know." In the carriage, the villagers of Hongxing Village shook their heads.
Peng Tou continued to pave the way and said: "With how ignorant you are, I know without even guessing that if there are two or three wealthy households in your village, they must be rich."
When everyone heard this, they asked in confusion: "How did you know?"
"When he went to our village, the three western-style buildings in our village were so conspicuous."
Peng Tou said with a smile: "I did see those three foreign-style buildings, but I'm sure one of them belongs to your village chief's house."
"Hey, you are really good at calculation. How did you know that?"
"I don't know how to tell fortunes. These things are all calculated. I have reserved so little land for your grain rations, forcing you to allocate land for farming, and then collecting taxes from you. This is all calculated by others. You guys
If you can't even see this, isn't it just that the poorer you get when you farm, then you have to work for others." Peng Tou curled his lips and said with great disdain.
But as soon as these words were spoken, the tempers of the Hongxing Village villagers in Chedu were aroused. They all stared at Peng Tou with their eyes widened.
Mr. Liu sighed and said nothing.
Liu Xiaozi, who was sitting aside, couldn't sit still anymore when he heard this. He immediately stood up and asked: "Uncle, what do you mean by what you said? It's ambiguous. Just give it to us."
