60s: I have a store

Chapter 306: Government Distributes Soybeans

After Director Hu brought Lao Huang and his team to the office, they began to discuss.

Soon the leader spoke up: "Director Hu, we came to the steel plant this time with a mission, which is to make your steel plant produce special steel that meets the specifications!"

When Director Hu heard that special steel was needed, he understood the importance of the matter and was quite confident in the technology of the factory. He immediately said, "Comrade, I'm not bragging to you. The level of steelmaking in our factory is top-notch in the country."

The leader was not polite: "The requirements for special steel are high strength and good corrosion resistance."

After hearing the request, Director Hu became more and more shocked. You know, no steel plant in the whole country can produce steel of this strength.

To be honest, he didn't dare to guarantee that his steel plant could complete such a task.

"We can't produce steel of this strength in our factory. If we want to produce it, it will probably take a while to repeatedly research and develop it."

Lao Huang and his colleagues also understood the difficulty of producing this kind of special steel, and they were divided into several groups. Not only this steel mill, but also the top steel mills in the country would send people there.

They did not plan to stay here for a long time, but instead prepared to go back. After all, solving the problem of magnetoelectric sensors was a difficult problem.

When Director Hu heard that they were about to leave, he was so happy. If they had stayed until the special steel was produced, Director Hu would have been worried that Zhou Yimin would be kidnapped by them.

After Zhou Yimin successfully developed the magnetoelectric sensor, he did not stay in the factory any longer. During this period, he did not return to the village to visit his grandparents. What happened next was none of his business.

After returning to the village, Zhou Yimin heard that the soybeans would be distributed for free. Starting tomorrow, the commune would send people to the villages under its jurisdiction every day to distribute the soybeans, and there was no need to go to the commune to pick them up.

Zhou Yimin was very surprised.

OK?
Is there such a good thing? Free soybean distribution?

You know, things are difficult everywhere now, and the country’s granaries are not well stocked.

Although it is not a staple food, it is just soybeans, but it is still edible!

As we all know, soybeans are native to China and are cultivated throughout China and are also widely cultivated around the world.

It is rich in dietary fiber, which can promote human digestion and absorption, accelerate gastrointestinal motility, prevent constipation, and speed up the excretion of waste in the body.

The old man was also curious and asked, "Yimin, why do you think the government wants to distribute soybeans? It doesn't seem to be very useful. Wouldn't it be better to distribute some other coarse grains?"

Although soybeans are a kind of food, they cannot be eaten as a meal. How much soybeans do you need to feel full?

Zhou Yimin said, "It is quite useful. You know, soybeans can promote bowel movements. Many people across the country now rely on eating Guanyin soil to survive. However, long-term use of Guanyin soil can lead to constipation and eventually suffocation to death."

"Moreover, those who were already starving and could only lie in bed waiting to die, could come back to life by drinking soy milk made from soybeans for a few days. This can be said to have brought them back from the brink of death," Zhou Yimin added.

He met the old branch secretary when he just came back, and the old branch secretary told him.

At first, Zhou Yimin was also confused and didn't understand the purpose of doing this.

After listening to the old branch secretary's explanation, I quickly understood.

After hearing this, the old man couldn't help but nod slightly. Having been a farmer all his life, how could he not know the function of soybeans?
However, they had been living quite well in Zhoujiazhuang these days under the care of his eldest grandson, and they had not had to eat dirt.

Therefore, he did not realize the problem. In fact, no one in Zhoujiazhuang thought about going hungry.

They can’t say they eat very well these days, but at least they don’t go hungry.

Early the next morning, Zhou Yimin saw villagers lining up to receive soybeans. When the villagers heard that there were free things to be received, they wanted to bring everything they could fit in their homes so that they could get more soybeans.

Even though Zhoujiazhuang was not short of food, free things were always the most appealing to others.

It's not just Zhoujiazhuang, other villages are the same.

In Qingxi Village, not far from Zhoujiazhuang, the whole village initially swarmed up, but only started to line up after being loudly scolded by the people from the commune.

The first person in line was holding four or five sacks.

The people in the commune asked: "What is your name? How many people are there in your family?"

"My name is Wang Daming, and there are six people in my family." Wang Daming answered truthfully.

The commune people simply took out a bamboo tube and dug about six tubes from the sack full of soybeans. However, the bamboo tube was not big, and one tube was about one jin, so six tubes was six jin.

"Next!"

Without giving Wang Daming a chance to react, the commune staff shouted, "Next."

Wang Daming was pushed away by the people behind him. Then he came to his senses. He didn't expect that so many sacks were of no use at all. Who could eat these six pounds of soybeans?

Some people, seeing that each person gets one kilogram, have evil thoughts and want to falsely report a larger number of people, so that they can get more, right?
When it was Wang Daan's turn, before anyone from the commune asked, he said, "There are twelve people in my family?"

There are only eight people in his family, and he just wants to report more to see if he can get more.

The people in the queue did not expose Wang Daan. They also wanted to know whether this method was useful. If it was useful, they were prepared to do the same.

However, the commune staff looked through the record sheet and found that Wang Daan only had eight people in his family. They immediately exposed him: "Wang Daan, isn't your family of eight? How did you get to twelve? Is your wife pregnant with quadruplets now?"

"If there is a next time, just cut the portion in half."

Then he dug six barrels for Wang Daan and said sharply, "Next!"

After hearing what the people present said, all the little thoughts in their hearts disappeared without a trace. They were afraid that they could have gotten more, but because of a big lie, they could only get half the amount.

The quality of Zhoujiazhuang is better, perhaps because Zhoujiazhuang has been doing well recently!
The crowd did not falsely report the population and received the soybeans in an orderly manner.

Only the situation in Zhoujiazhuang and Shangshui Village is slightly better.

Next is Shuangtian Village, but there are still cases of false reporting. This is understandable, after all, not every household in Shuangtian Village has someone working in Zhoujiazhuang, and those who go to work in the commune can only feed themselves.

As for some villages where people were snatching soybeans, they were quickly reprimanded.
