Reborn Soul: Me and My Family

Chapter 147: Astonishing Numbers

Time was running out, and the old men did not dare to rest for a moment all night. When they came, they heard from the soldier who led them,

They are now in the territory of Country M, and they must be quick to count the things. If so many good things are shipped back to their own country,

They all felt proud of it. Besides, the people who went to pick them up had already said that the leader had personally spoken.

As long as they complete this mission well, they won't have to go back to that place anymore, and someone will personally arrange a place for them.

They are naturally willing to take care of and study these things, as they are the treasures of the country.

The most important thing is that they can do what they like in the future. Isn’t this alone better than anything else?

Long Weijun and his friends watched the whole night, and their initial shock turned into numbness. There was nothing they could do about it because they had seen too many good things that night.

I just felt a little bit dizzy. When the sky was just getting light, all the things were finally counted.

60 boxes of gold, 10 boxes of exquisite gold and silver jewelry, 30 boxes of jewelry, and 20 boxes of silk and satin.

The remaining paintings and calligraphy, porcelain, bronze, and jade were 30 boxes each, totaling 240 boxes.

Even though everyone went from being shocked to being numb at first, they were still extremely happy when the final total came out.

Everything was ready. At Long Weijun's command, the soldiers who were on high alert received the order and quickly took action.

Walking in the front were Gu Yueze and Ma Chuan. Boxes were carried out one after another behind them and followed them down the mountain.

Maybe they were lucky this time, as going up and down the mountain was particularly smooth, and they didn't encounter any wild animals along the way.

Even though the boxes were very heavy, the people they prepared would rotate them every once in a while and take turns to rest. When they reached halfway down the mountain, they finally breathed a sigh of relief.

After a short rest, Gu Yueze asked someone to notify the driver to drive the truck down the mountain until all the boxes were loaded.

Everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief. They were still very nervous when they were on the mountain. After all, they were on someone else's territory.

Su Zhaohai also went back with them this time. Last night he received a task assigned by the SL personnel of Y Province, and he must assist these people in transporting the goods to J City safely.

Unlike the fast driving on the way here, after all, there are some fragile porcelains in the car, and the road should not be too bumpy.

The car drove very smoothly on the way back. Of course, there were more boxes than expected, so there were several more cars on the return trip.

The way back took a little longer. Bai Jingyao and Ye Lihaokuang were following behind with Long Weijun and his group.

The two people returned to J City again after a few years with mixed feelings. It can be said that everything and people have changed this time.

Fan Dayong has been very busy these days. The house was built suddenly and many things had to be done temporarily.

In addition, it was time to distribute food rations to the villagers as the year was coming to an end, and the work points had to be calculated for the villagers.

The village’s New Year pig also needs to be handed in, and these are all things that need to be supervised by these village cadres.

The New Year pigs kept for the New Year in their village also have to be slaughtered. After working hard for a whole year, don’t they all want to have a meal of meat?

Every household in the village got up early on this day. Today was the day to slaughter the New Year pig. The most excited ones were the children in the village.

They heard their parents say last night that they must cook half a pound of meat for everyone to try today.

The rest would be saved for making dumplings on New Year's Day. The village was so lively that Ouyang Qing and the others certainly wanted to go and take a look.

They asked Aunt Qiao yesterday. After the villagers have divided the land, if there are still some educated youth like them, they can buy them with money.

The price was the same as that sold in the commune, but fortunately no meat coupons were required, so the educated youth who had enough money also went to the threshing ground early in the morning.

Although the weather is cold, the villagers are enthusiastic. Last year's harvest was quite good. After paying the public grain,

Each family received a lot of food. Although they were not very wealthy, at least they would not starve in the next year.

In addition, each family exchanged work points for several yuan, and families with more labor force received more than ten yuan.

When they put on their scarves and turned around to lock the gate, they happened to meet Wang Nianke and Shao Yiyi.

"Comrade Ouyang, are you going to the threshing ground?"

Ouyang Qing put his hands in his pockets, "Yes! Comrade Wang, I heard it's very lively today, we plan to go and take a look early.

If the educated youth can buy meat later, we plan to buy some and make dumplings. If you guys are going there too, we can go the same way. "

Compared to before, Shao Yiyi is now a lot more lively and you can chat with her when you meet her on the street.

"It just so happens that we haven't eaten meat for a long time. I heard from Aunt Zhao that there is always leftover meat every year. We educated youth can buy some when the time comes.

Yiyi and I have discussed that this is our first New Year here, so we plan to be extravagant.

Buy a few more pounds of meat, make some dumplings and freeze them, and save the rest for the New Year."

A few pretty young girls were walking in front of us, chatting happily and not noticing a skinny old woman walking hurriedly in front of them.

The old woman paused for a moment, then continued walking forward. Suddenly she stopped at the corner and turned around to look.

There was still a gleam of determination in his eyes. Ouyang Qing felt a chill on her back. She turned around abruptly and saw

They didn't notice anything different, and when they saw her abnormality, several people stopped.

Just as she was about to speak, Ouyang Qing turned around and continued walking forward as if nothing had happened. Seeing this, several people hurriedly followed her footsteps.

Only Shao Yiyi remained where she was, staring at the corner. She also noticed the strangeness that had just occurred.

But she was not as agile as Ouyang Qing, "Yiyi, why are you still standing there like an idiot? If you don't hurry up, we won't be able to see the meat being divided."

Not being able to figure out what was going on, Shao Yiyi could only follow the others. The old woman in the corner was sweating profusely.

She just had a little idea just now, how come she was almost discovered? That little girl reacted very quickly,

She almost exposed herself. The old woman patted her chest, tightly grasped the basket in her hand, and flew away from the corner.

When they arrived at the threshing ground, they saw villagers surrounding the field in three layers, and heard the wailing of pigs.

Instantly, they forgot what just happened. The pig slaughter was too bloody, so Ouyang Qing and the others did not squeeze in to watch.

In less than half an hour, the sound of gongs and drums could be heard, and soon the entire threshing floor fell silent.

Fan Dayong cleared his throat and said, "Everyone stop arguing. The meat will be divided soon. I will call out your names later.

Those whose names were called should come forward to take the meat, and when they have taken it, they should carry it home quickly, and not stay here to cause trouble.

If anyone wants to stay and cause trouble, I will write down his name and deduct one work point from him, remember?"
