Chapter 907: Stop the Self-Torture Trick
Zheng Dakui frowned slightly, he couldn't just leave, fearing that Secretary Du would let him go and deal with those commune members and Zheng Dashan who stole food.
"Secretary Du, please understand my difficulties. How can I seize the harvest if I don't have enough to eat? We can't let those who work hard feel discouraged and let those who fish in troubled waters take advantage, right? If I want to arrest you, I will arrest you. If you want to deal with it, then deal with me. Let those commune members and Zheng Dashan go, it’s the food I distributed privately.”
"Forget it, I can't beat you, let's put it this way! The confiscated food will not be taken back to you, but it is still considered as public food paid by the fifth brigade. The excess will not be refunded. You will make up for the rest. You distribute the work points to the members according to their work points, and hand over the excess to the commune. Lao Zheng, I have made the biggest concession. If you don't agree to it again, don't blame me for being ruthless. "
Secretary Du sighed. At this moment, he was quite envious of the fact that the members of the fifth brigade had a good captain. He took a step back, but he forced Zheng Dakui to become the captain again.
"Dakui, we shouldn't."
Gao Guilan heard that the words were wrong and hit Zheng Dakui with her elbow. She no longer wanted Zheng Dakui to be the leader.
The family couldn't borrow any light, so they became frightened.
Zheng Dakui gritted his teeth, knowing that this was the biggest concession Secretary Du had ever made. After all, the only food left in the village was potatoes from more than ten acres of land, eight acres of soybeans, and one acre of corn. .
According to Secretary Du, if all these are handed in, they can be counted as public grain. Doesn't this still count against the five thousand kilograms of grain they handed over before?
"Secretary Du, this is not possible. We have already handed over 5,000 kilograms of grain before, and these days we have handed over more than 10,000 kilograms of grain. We have already exceeded the task. The few potatoes and soybeans left in the field are not enough for distribution. We can no longer distribute it. Went to the public house to collect food.”
Secretary Du glared at Zheng Dakui angrily, should he calculate it as clearly as he did? But seeing Zheng Dakui's persistence, he had no choice but to agree.
"Okay, that's it for this year, but you have to take care of the atmosphere in the village when you go back. What does it look like if stealing becomes common?"
"good."
Zheng Dakui happily agreed, not realizing that he had fallen into Secretary Du's trap.
Zheng Xinyue looked at her father with a grimace on her face. Now she has become the captain again?
As soon as an agreement was reached here, there were torches not far away, approaching from a distance, followed by the villagers shouting one after another.
"Secretary Du, we are willing to be criticized, let's release Captain Zheng!"
"Secretary Du, the captain of our food-stealing brigade doesn't know. It has nothing to do with him. He is not the one who distributes food to us."
Everyone present looked at the members who had gathered. Under the light of the torches, simple faces appeared in front of everyone.
Those who came were the members of the fifth team. The two brothers Zheng Dashan and Zheng Dazhuang were at the front. Even Zheng Maoshan was brought by the two brothers on a donkey cart. Except for a few families, it was considered that the whole village was mobilized. .
Secretary Du clasped his hands behind his back, looked at the surrounding villagers with a dark face and frowned. Is Zheng Dakui so important in the hearts of the villagers?
"I, Zheng Dakui, thank you all."
Zheng Dakui was a red-faced man. When he saw that the villagers were willing to be arrested and criticized in order to protect themselves, he gritted his teeth and looked at everyone with red eyes.
"It's over, it's over, your father has fallen into a trap again."
Gao Guilan was rubbing her hands together and complaining to her daughter in annoyance.
"Okay, stop showing off the cruel trick, everyone, leave, hurry up."
Secretary Du waved his hand angrily and he left first, out of sight and out of mind.
