"Today I called you here to formally inform you that our brigade will also implement the household contract responsibility system. Some people may ask, what is the household contract responsibility system? You can probably understand what it means...
"
Zhang Changhe first carefully explained to everyone the meaning of household responsibility, and then began to solicit everyone's opinions on several issues.
"After all, we are a collective, and now we are separated. Some things need everyone's cooperation to complete it faster and better. The first thing is to re-measure the land. If we want to divide the land, it must be fair and just. Let's take a look at the distribution of each household.
Everyone comes out and we try to measure out the land as quickly as possible."
No one had any objections to this, and they all said they would send someone out.
"Another thing is the team's livestock and farming tools. These are all collective. According to our team's discussion, after the land is divided, we can transform from the original three production teams into several families sharing one farm.
Set of tools.”
As soon as Zhang Changhe finished speaking, everyone started talking.
Widow Liu rolled her eyes and asked loudly: "Party secretary, if several families share it, whose house should the animals and tools be kept?"
If it was placed in someone's house, it would belong to that person, so she would definitely grab one set and take it back first.
She is not the only one who has this idea. She just needs to add some fodder to whomever she puts it in. But when the animals are in her own home, she has the final say.
"Our village now has a total of 145 households. How about we arrange five households in a series and let them decide on whose household the animals and tools should be placed?" Sun Yuzhu, the team leader, suggested.
We have been neighbors for decades, and other teams also practice this, so their team shouldn't have much of a problem.
Zhang Changhe felt that this proposal was feasible, so he nodded in agreement: "The matter has not been finalized yet. You can go back and study it first. If there are any better proposals, we will discuss it then."
"Just now the captain said that five households are connected in a series. How to divide them? They won't be the left and right neighbors, right? Then shouldn't we be grouped with the old Liu family?"
When she thought of dealing with Widow Liu's family in the future, Liu Yuemin's first reaction was to refuse.
Widow Liu has many things to do and is messy, and Li Xiulan and Zhang Qin are not willing to do it either.
"Didn't you say it's not certain yet? Let's wait until your father and the others come back and we can discuss it together and see what we do."
"What's there to discuss? The horses and tools must be put in our home, otherwise I won't trust anyone else."
Widow Liu suddenly interjected with her chin half raised during the oblique stab, her expression full of provocation.
Liu Yuemin: "If you say I'll let your family go, I'll let it go. You have to ask other family members if they agree, right?"
"I don't care whether they agree or not. If they don't agree, I will cause trouble and the land will not be divided."
My own son knows that in the past, when they were working together, their family could still be lazy. As long as the two sons went to work, they would be given work points no matter what they did. Now that the land is really divided, she has to do all the work.
Do it yourself.
Since there is no benefit to be gained, Widow Liu is not going to share it.
Li Xiulan sneered: "I say Wang Juhua, the older you get, the thicker your skin becomes. Why do you have to let me live in your house? You really think you are the dishonor. If you say you won't give up this land, you are a piece of shit."
"
"Huh, if you don't believe me, let's just wait and see." Widow Liu said, twisting her body and walking away as if she was really annoyed.
Li Xiulan was extremely angry: "Look at her damn virtue."
Chen Lishu advised: "Forget it, Mom, there's no point in getting angry with this kind of person. Besides, it's not her alone who has the final say as to whose house the animals should be placed. There are other families."
Li Xiulan thought about it, and the other companies would definitely not let Widow Liu do whatever she wanted.
In the evening, Mr. Gu Shoufu came back. Although he had known about the land allocation for a long time, he was still very happy that it was actually implemented. Gu Shoufu took the initiative and said: "Measuring the land is a big thing that cannot be delayed. Since every family has someone, then I will be the one starting from tomorrow."
Go ahead, you brothers should collect grain."
The matter was settled like this. After breakfast the next day, Gu Shoufu went to measure the land with the villagers. The three brothers Gu Xingguo continued to collect grain, and Chen Lishu went to the town.
"Sister Chen."
Not long after Lin Qi opened the store door, he saw her coming in and called out.
"Has anyone come here to apply?"
Lin Qi nodded: "There were a few people who inquired about the situation, but in the end nothing happened."
Chen Lishu nodded and said nothing more.
After all, she was working for her as a self-employed person, and in the eyes of others, no matter how much money she made, it couldn't be compared to a regular job.
"I'll go to Zhou Bin and Nan Haitao to check on the situation later. They come in contact with a lot of people, so I'd like to ask them to help inquire."
While the two were talking, the store door was suddenly pushed open from the outside, and then a girl with a round face and big eyes and two braids came in.
"Hello, welcome." Chen Lishu said with a smile: "You can choose whatever you like. We have a fitting room and you can try it on for free."
The girl did not speak. She first looked around the store cautiously, and then said timidly: "I, I see there is a recruitment notice on this door?"
Chen Lishu nodded hurriedly: "Yes, it's recruitment. We are recruiting salespersons."
The girl's wandering eyes finally landed on Chen Lishu: "Do you think I'm a hit?"
"What's your name? How old are you?"
"My name is Xie Dani, and I will be eighteen during the Chinese New Year. I can endure any hardship, as long as I can provide food and shelter."
After asking Chen Lishu a few more questions, she found out that Xie Dani was not a local. Her parents died early and she came to live with her uncle and aunt. However, her uncle and aunt kicked her out because they thought she was a burden.
"Sorry, we don't provide room and board here."
Xie Dani's eyes darkened when she heard Chen Lishu's words. After being kicked out, she only had two dollars with her. In the past two days, she had been going to the hospital to get some work. If she couldn't find a job again, she might really go begging.
Before she could turn around in disappointment, Chen Lishu continued: "But you can try it out for a day first. If both parties are satisfied, I can advance half a month's salary to you."
Xie Dani's eyes turned red in excitement, and she nodded repeatedly: "I promise to do a good job."
In this way, Xie Dani stayed for the time being. Chen Lishu looked at Lin Qi and said, "You go and do your work first. I will take care of her first. You can come over and take over in the afternoon."
It gets dark early, so Chen Lishu must leave early for safety.
"Okay, Sister Chen, I'll leave first." Lin Qi responded and turned around and walked out of the store.
Later, Chen Lishu told Xie Dani about the salesperson's work process and precautions.
"The most important thing is to pay attention to the service attitude and be sure to smile at others. They are here to consume, not to see your face."
Xie Dani nodded: "I understand."
Seeing that she was always mine, Chen Lishu frowned almost invisible and emphasized again: "I don't force you to speak Mandarin, but you must not be in this state when facing guests."
Xie Dani nodded immediately: "Yes, I will definitely change it."
