Chapter 289

And the first group would definitely get the biggest and best pile of the stock whereas the latter divide would obtain smaller foods with dirt and rubbish in them.

Members of the community wanted to have their portions divided first.

The Leader shouted, “Today, Dawang’s mother gave me a good idea and Sanwang has made great contributions, so I will divide her family first. What’s the matter, do you have any opinions about it?”

No one spoke.

Peanuts were a non-staple food as it wasn’t one of the main foods and were not included in the ration quota. Basically, the total number from the harvest was calculated and then divided according to how many people there were living in a house.

Of course, it was also based on work points.

Now, the scoring system operated on a 4-6 concept— the overall food distribution depended on 40% of the total pax per household and 60% of the work points accumulated, which became a more acceptable system to the commune members.

Compared with the previous 7-3 and even 8-2 concepts, fairness was taken into account. It not only took care of those families with a large population and few contributions of labour, but also it also took into account the families that had less people but contributed more.

If it was based on the 8-2 system, whoever had a large family would take advantage of it and those with lesser family members would suffer losses, hurting the enthusiasm of the members. By then, no one would be willing to work.

Many villages were still like this.

However, the Shanzui Village had been working with the 4-6 method since a long time ago and even practised the 7-3 for a period of time. In order to increase the enthusiasm of the labourers to work and increase the total output value, things have changed for the better at some point by making the changes.

There were 7 members from Lin Lan’s family and 6 shares were distributed.

At this time, Han Qingsong had changed his career and was no longer a serving soldier. Naturally, he could not continue to enjoy the full-work points benefits given by the village before.

Now that he had changed jobs and became a cadre, he had his own salary. His household registration for grain and oil was not in the village in the Commune and was in the County, so Han Qingsong had no share here.

Lin Lan said, “Leader, can we subsidise their father’s portion with work points as well?”

Spending money and subsidising work points from the Production Team was always more cost-effective than spending money outside.

The Production Team Leader naturally agreed that the peanuts would be taken out of the reservation and there was no need to reduce the amount allocated to others.

That way, no one else had anything to say about it.

Lin Lan, “Erwang and Maisui, take Xiaowang back to the house to cook; Sanwang, you stay here while I’ll go and collect your father’s share of peanuts.”

Sanwang, “I’ll go and call my father and the eldest brother.”

“They’re still breaking corn; I’ll just go on my own.”

Just as she was talking, she saw Han Qingsong walking over from another direction.

At this time, a young man in the team who usually liked to take advantage of other women, but also liked to talk about nonsense started to tease. He shouted, “Yu Wuzi, quickly bring your cloth bag to compare. Sanwang, is your father really that big?”

Sanwang had been educated by Lin Lan and knew that he couldn’t say those words in public, so he immediately snorted, “No matter what, he’s still bigger than you!”

The man said, “…Haha, you little brat, you haven’t seen mine before.”

As he said that, he also glanced at Lin Lan, wanting to see some reaction on her face.

Some men would never engage in those topics with their own wives, but while they met other wives and women in the village, they liked to joke with them a lot.
