Chapter 203 There is meat for those who do not go home during Chinese New Year

Da Mao Niang said: "Okay, okay, I can't say enough about you two. But it's okay, Ermao and Sanmao are both grown up, and they can let the donkeys go. If one donkey is released, the two donkeys will still be released."

Just as he was talking, Dad Da Mao took away the two donkeys, and took the two young sons out to tend the donkeys while preparing the land. When he came back, he did not delay cutting some hay.

Da Mao Niang asked: "Da Mao, take a few days off."

"Five days off."

"It's such a short time. Some time ago, several matchmakers came to propose marriage to you, but I didn't dare to agree. I just took advantage of these few days to meet and talk to see which one is suitable." Da Mao Niang said.

Da Mao said: "Okay, I'm still thinking about taking a few days off during the holidays, and I'm going to go on a blind date again."

Wang Damao is a microcosm of Cangzhou Township Soldiers. They were originally from poor farmers. Since joining the Township Soldiers, their family circumstances have undergone considerable changes. With a big animal in the family, they immediately became the envy of the villagers. object.When I go home during the holidays, I always bring some money with me, some have more than a dozen taels of silver, and some have as much money as I have.With money in his pocket, he speaks hard, has a donkey at home, and has face on blind dates, and instantly becomes the most beautiful boy in the village.Moreover, most of the military salaries and subsidies brought back by these township soldiers were saved, and most of them were spent. The nearby economy became active immediately, and small traders kept coming and going.Those who make clothes, make pastries, and sell New Year pictures can make a little money.

Now the thinking of most rural young people is that they want to stand out and go to Chaijiazhuang to serve as soldiers.And there are still many young people who were not selected for the first time to conduct targeted training according to the subjects selected by Chaijiazhuang, such as long-distance running, lifting stone locks and other subjects.

As the years approached, other people had vacations and leisure, and Chai Lin couldn't.

On the 29th of the twelfth lunar month, Chai Lincong led more than a dozen personal guards, accompanied by heavy soldiers, drove several large carriages, and drove more than a dozen slaughtered pigs to the big iron mine. These days, pigs are raised for a whole year, and each pig is more than 300 Jin, fifteen or six pigs, nearly four thousand catties of pork.

Dian Zhengnan, who was accompanying him, salivated at the excellent pork and said, "These miners are so lucky, they have meat to eat today."

Xie Bao said: "Miners are happy, you go to be a miner, and you will have meat to eat."

Dian Zhengnan shook his head again and again, and said: "I'm not going, it's great to be a soldier, and eat meat every day."

Although the mine was shut down, it did not rest.

Three thousand miners formed thirty centurions, and each of them was practicing with a mace. These miners worked every day, and their physical fitness was really good.

Bian Xiang led dozens of people in the mountain battalion to conduct militarized management and drills on the miners, and in the euphemistic name, protect the iron mines.

When Chai Lin arrived, he didn't disturb their drill, but directly notified the cooks of each team to collect supplies.

Dozens of cooks lined up, waiting for the distribution of supplies.

When they saw the pigs on the carriage one by one were shocked, Jiang Jing set up a long table next to it, a notebook.Someone was in charge of weighing, one hundred catties for a team.

"The first team is here to get the meat." Dian Zhengnan shouted.

"Yes." The cook from the first team replied, and when he came over, he was surprised to see that there was a whole hundred catties of pork.

"This, this, are these all from our first team?" The cook stuttered excitedly.

Jiang Jing said: "Yes, this one hundred catties of pork belongs to your team, but you don't want to finish it all at once. You can make about thirty catties a day and eat it in three days."

"Yes, yes, yes." A team of cooks asked someone to help, and carried the meat back.

The cook from the second team came over and took a hundred catties of pork. There happened to be a stick bone in the car, and he wanted to take it away.

Jiang Jing shouted: "Have you forgotten the rules?"

"Don't dare, don't dare." The guy quickly put it down.

Jiang Jing is selfless, no team has a lot of points, but it is impossible for you to take advantage of it, as the saying goes, righteousness does not take money.

Thirty teams of miners each received a hundred catties of meat.

Next came the miners who were prisoners of war. There were quite a few of these prisoners, a total of 700 people, and each team also received a hundred catties of pork.

Bian Xiang's military training was not a joke. He strictly followed Chai Lin's requirements and imposed heavy rewards and punishments. The miners practiced queues, ran, and tossed all morning.Those who don't train hard, those who desert and are lazy, are served with a whip.

Bian Xiang said with a straight face, "The practice in the morning was not satisfactory, barely enough. Continue to practice in the afternoon. The first team that performed well, the sixth team, the eighth team, and the thirteenth team, the captain came up to receive the reward."

"Yes." These are the four teams that are more active in training.

Bian Xiang beckoned, and a soldier brought over four pig heads, one for each team.Although the pig's head is often meaty, it is a good thing in the countryside. Pig's head is used to sacrifice ancestors. The team that didn't get it secretly vowed to train better next time.

"Disband, go eat."

Following Bian Xiang's order, the [-] teams disbanded and returned to the cafeteria. From a long distance, people with good noses could smell the smell of meat.

Someone said: "Could it be that my nose is out of order, why do I smell the delicious smell of pork?"

"Think about it too much, pork is a precious thing, how can there be pork." A middle-aged miner said.

A young man said: "Master Chai said that we are all his brothers, and he will come to give us pork during the Chinese New Year."

"That's just a polite talk, you can still take it seriously." The middle-aged man said.

The young man said: "No, Mr. Chai is a nail if he spits. How can he break his promise?"

At this time, I heard the miner cooking in front yelling: "My God, pork stewed radish, at least three taels of meat."

I kept exclaiming, but I didn't expect that there was really meat to eat.

Everyone got a bowl of meat, a few pancakes, and a stalk of green onion, and took the bowl to find a leeward wall to eat.

At this time, Chai Lin came with several people, and Chai Lin also took a bowl of stewed radish with pork, took a few mouthfuls and said, "It tastes very good, moderately salty."

Dian Zhengnan was not polite when he took it from behind, and finished a bowl of meat in two bites.

Chai Lin said at the top of his voice, "A few days ago, I said that I would invite my brothers to eat meat during the New Year. Let's honor it today."

Everyone was very happy, and there was meat in the bowl, "It's cashed."

"Is the meat delicious?"

"good to eat."

Chai Lin said: "Everything is difficult at the beginning, and everyone has seen that there is no tile in this big iron mine. In the beginning of spring, a large number of houses will be built, and the money will flow. Brothers, brothers who don’t go home this year eat meat for three days.”

"Okay, thank you, Master Chai." Everyone thanked one after another.

Some miners were so moved that they shed two lines of tears. The miners are mostly refugees these days. The mine owners wish the miners could only work and not eat, but the big iron mines here are very good.The working hours are not long, and life is still good.

For those who celebrate the Chinese New Year, Chai Zhuangzhu also gave meat, whether it is to win people's hearts or not, this is very rare.You say that others win people's hearts, so you also give a few thousand catties of meat to win them over?

Chai Lin chatted with the miners for a while, and everyone was very moved.

Chai Lin waved his hand, called Wang Hong, and said, "Wang Hong, your task is not easy. You usually need to know more about the miners' thoughts. If there is a big problem at home, report it in time. If you can solve it, help solve it. Just comfort and comfort. Really treat the miners as brothers and relatives."

Wang Hong said: "Good owner. In fact, everyone is very satisfied. Many miners think that they can bring their families over next year. They have had enough in Qingzhou. Last time, some people received the one hundred catties of Chen There are still sorghum confiscated by the government."

"It's so shameless?" Chai Lin couldn't believe it, but it was true. It was like this in the last years of the Northern Song Dynasty.

"It's not a big deal, it's too difficult for the people of Qingzhou." Wang Hong said.

Chailin said: "This matter should not be too urgent. The houses for the miners have not been built yet, and the entire iron mine has nothing but a diwozi. Wait for the iron mine to be built first, and then build a village for the miners. If you come here rashly Leaving home and living in a random place, if the management is not in place and the plague is infected, it will be terrible."
