Chapter 66 Follow Wanwan's Footsteps
"I also heard this when I was working in the commune. Secretary Zhao is a fair and just person. He will definitely replace the helper in the small kitchen."

Moreover, they may not necessarily recruit temporary workers this time. Qiao Yuemei has a hunch that Secretary Zhao will ask his daughter for her opinion.

"If possible, see if you can ask your eldest aunt or second aunt to do this job."

Seeing the disapproval on her daughter's face, Qiao Yuemei smiled and said, "Wanwan, I know you want to find a job for mom so that she doesn't have to work hard in the fields every day. I'm used to it. It's okay. The harmony of a family lies in everyone's unity and concerted efforts."

Some things are hard to say directly, but Qiao Yuemei knows that her daughter is so smart that she will definitely understand.

The three branches of the Gu family can live in harmony because everyone has similar starting points and economic conditions.

But now, Gu Wan is already working in the commune. Even if she succeeds on her own, the first and second wives may not agree with her.

Gu Wan hugged Qiao Yuemei's arm and acted coquettishly, "Mom, don't worry, your daughter will definitely find a better job for you in the future."

Because there were too many things to do, Gu Wan didn't notice that her father didn't go to work these days.

Her father's ambition is similar, to work hard to give his wife and daughter a good life.

My son, you are just a companion, so you should work hard and share the hardships with him.

Ever since Qi Bin enlightened him, Gu Zhiqiang was very excited for a while.

Although the captain did not support or agree with it on the surface, he did not oppose it either.

In fact, if the daily life of the villagers can be improved, the team leader will certainly be happy.

However, due to the lack of clear policy regulations, he did not dare to take the risk and could only let Gu Zhiqiang try it boldly.

The brothers of the Gu family are all hardworking and willing to do practical work. Many people in the village are also willing to try to earn this money.

To be honest, they usually work very hard and get full work points, but at the end of the year, the best they can do is to ensure that their wives and children at home do not starve to death.

If there is more, there will be no more.

Now someone has pointed out a clear way for them, it’s just a little dangerous and requires hard work, so what’s so scary about it?

So these few days Gu Zhiqiang went to the mountains with several capable men in the village to see what suitable mountain products there were.

When Gu Zhiqiang and his team went into the mountains, the team leader did not lag behind. After thinking about it, he finally went to the commune to find the secretary to report the matter.

If they succeed, it will be the credit of Gu Laosan of their Red Flag Battalion. Even if they fail, there will be no loss.

Secretary Zhao is not the kind of person who is unsympathetic. He is also a retired soldier and is more knowledgeable than the average commune leader.

Especially since he knew that it was Qi Bin who first proposed this matter.

No matter what the reason is, Qi Bin would rather give all the credit to the Gu family. In any case, as long as it is beneficial to improving people's lives, it is a good thing.

It’s true, but Gu Zhiqiang and his friends actually found a lot of good things while wandering around the mountains these days.

Not to mention the meat that can run, there are also a lot of medicinal herbs.

In addition, there are mushrooms and black fungus. Comrade Qi Bin said that these are very popular if they are dried and sent to big cities.

Then that night, after dinner, when she was about to go back to her room to rest, Gu Wan heard her father's bold words and plans, as well as the results of his trip to the mountain to investigate the situation.

Although she didn't know what specific ideas Qi Bin had, she had seen more on the Internet and was the first to support her father's decision. However, Gu Wan also said, "Dad, don't go to the mountains alone. Safety should be the first priority."

Gu Zhiqiang was very touched by his daughter's concern and was so excited that he made up his mind to get this done.

As the head of the family, Gu Mingfeng did not make a clear statement. He knew that he was old and incapable, and would only be a hindrance in anything he did.

Shi Guixiang strongly supports her third son's approach. In her opinion, it doesn't matter if she is not smart enough, as long as she follows capable people.

Qi Bin is from a big city. He is knowledgeable and must be capable. Wanwan also said that if he can do it, he will definitely be able to do it.

The eldest and his wife were honest and did their duty. They did not say whether they supported or opposed. Gu Zhiguo only said, "Third brother, you don't understand these things. If there is anything you need me to do, just let me know."

Not to mention the second couple, they decided early on to follow Wanwan's footsteps in everything.

Note, it is the footsteps of the evening;
It’s not that they agree with what Gu Laosan said, but Wanwan said that her father can do it, so the second brother’s family must agree with Wanwan.

"Dad, if you want to go up the mountain, you must go with your uncle. It's better to bring a few more people. Be careful, there may be wild boars or something in the mountain."

Then another day passed, and everyone in the Gu family knew about it. They heard from the third son of the Gu family -

No, it’s definitely right to listen to Wanwan.

Because the next day when they went up the mountain together, they actually encountered a wild boar. Fortunately, they were many in number and obediently brought tools.

There is strength in numbers. The wild boar was afraid of multiple men using shovels and other tools together, so it was beaten to death by them all.

Afterwards, they simply tied the boar up with a rope, and everyone worked together to carry the wild boar down the mountain.

Things like using mountain products to trade with people in big cities for money and notes are all things of the future, but at least now we have seen the first tangible benefit.

To be honest, if a person goes up the mountain and encounters a wild boar, he will definitely be scared and might even encounter danger.

But they were a group of men who went up the mountain together, so they were naturally not afraid and they made a great contribution.

Even if wild boar meat doesn’t taste as good as domestic pork, it doesn’t matter. It’s still meat and wild boars are oily.

Although this was mainly brought back by several men from the old Gu family who went up the mountain, such a big thing must belong to the collective, but the Gu family will get more when the meat is distributed.

If others want to eat, they can, they can exchange them for work points.

However, considering the big head of this wild boar, an experienced old man in the village estimated that more than 200 kilograms of meat might be produced in the end.

Every household can exchange it with work points, but the limit is two kilograms, and the Gu family can exchange ten kilograms.

And the families of the few people who went up the mountain with us could also exchange more.

The other villagers had no objections to this, and even if they did, they didn't dare to raise them. After all, these were fought back by others at the risk of their lives.

Of course, some families are reluctant to give up their work points and may exchange less, while some families do not divide up their family property and may not get enough to eat.

Anyway, we will start by exchanging two kilograms per family. The Gu family and the families of the other men who went up the mountain can also exchange more. Any extra will be calculated separately.
