At the member activity center, Zhou Yang ended the morning's commendation event with "dinner!"
Then the door of the venue was opened from the outside, and everyone was surprised to see small trolleys being pushed in by female educated youths.
When I got closer, I realized that all the items in the trolley were dishes!
Seeing this scene, the leaders sitting in front were all happy.
"Comrade Zhou Yang, it's really fresh here. You serve food on a trolley, hahaha!"
After hearing what An Bangguo said, Zhou Yang immediately said: "There are many people today and there are many dishes. If we serve them one plate after another, I don't know if they will be served until the Year of the Monkey and the Horse!"
"Besides, it is taboo to serve dishes one after another at a banquet. In that case, the last dish will basically be served one after another. Not only will it not look good on everyone's faces, but the appetite of the guests eating at the banquet will also be increased by three points out of thin air. , it’s better to go directly with a trolley!”
Director You immediately smiled and said: "Hahaha, this is called a fueling tactic in military terms. No matter what kind of battle it is, as long as it is fought as a fueling tactic, the casualties will increase a lot!"
As soon as he finished speaking, An Bangguo echoed: "I didn't expect Comrade Zhou Yang to understand military affairs!"
"Hahaha..."
While they were talking and laughing, a cart came to their table.
Then, under the expectant gaze of a group of leaders, the female educated youth began to serve the food.
Chicken stewed with mushrooms, braised pork with vermicelli, beef stewed with carrots, offal soup, mutton stewed with white radish, butchered vegetables, pork stewed with tofu...
Looking at the eight steaming dishes and one soup on the table, all the leaders were slightly surprised.
I saw that the eight dishes in front of me did not include stir-fried vegetables or cold salads, they were all stews.
What's more important is that these eight dishes are all meat dishes, and there are no vegetarian dishes. Except for the common accessories such as potatoes, tofu, vermicelli, carrots, and cabbage, all the dishes that catch the eye are all kinds of meat.
And all the dishes are served in small pots, which makes them quite appetizing when placed there.
Seeing such a table of hard food, both Director You and other leaders became a little uneasy.
It’s not that they haven’t been to the countryside, and it’s not that they haven’t had meals served in rural areas, but such sumptuous meals are rare.
Director You did not move his chopsticks immediately, but stood up and walked towards the center of the venue.
Zhou Yang, An Bangguo and others immediately stood up and followed them.
Director You greeted other members as he walked, while also looking at the food on other tables.
After walking around, he was surprised to find that all the educated youth members, even the student children, ate the same food as them.
The only difference is that the dishes on their table are bigger and have more meat, that's all.
It does not mean that because they are leaders, the village cooks small stoves for them, while ordinary members eat ordinary big pot meals.
Returning to his seat again, Director You thought for a moment, then looked at Zhou Yang and said, "It's a bit luxurious!"
Hearing this, the hearts of everyone else at the table were in their throats, especially Li Changqing and Li Fengnian.
In their view, these words can be regarded as a slap from the leader.
Anbangguo wanted to intercede with Zhou Yang and others, but after looking at the dishes on the table, he opened his mouth and didn't know what to say.
Although eight dishes and one soup did not exceed the normal reception standard, such a table of meat and dishes would cost at least 30 yuan based on current prices.
There are more than 500 tables here, which means that this meal alone will cost Babaoliang Village 15,000 yuan.
This is fifteen thousand yuan. Many villages with a population of four or five hundred people may not have this much cash income in a year.
Director You said luxury is an understatement!
However, Zhou Yang said with a smile: "Leader, if you look at this table by the standards of a state-owned hotel, this table is indeed luxurious, but today's ingredients are all grown by the village itself, so the village did not spend a penny. At most, only You can raise your own pigs to eat by yourself, grow your own grain and eat by yourself!"
"Besides, the educated youth members of the village have worked hard all year, and they deserve a good meal when they receive dividends!"
When Zhou Yang said this, Director You also realized that his reaction just now was a bit too much, and immediately said: "That's right, but I will try to be more frugal in the future. The more you save, the more you can share with the members!"
"You are right, we will remember this!" Zhou Yang said immediately.
Director You nodded, then said with a smile: "Since today is such a good time, let's not be polite and use chopsticks!"
Then, at Director You’s signal, everyone picked up their chopsticks and started eating!
Just when everyone was eating happily, Uzhina came to the stage again with a group of children and presented a wonderful song and dance performance to the members and people in the audience!
Watching the singing, dancing and feasting, the members and common people had happy smiles on their faces, and the atmosphere in the entire venue reached its peak again...
.........
This meal took an hour and a half to eat, and it was already two o'clock in the afternoon by the time it was put away!
After everyone worked together to remove the leftovers from the table, Zhou Yang came to the stage again.
At the same time, Li Jianguo led a group of young people to move more than ten tables and placed them on the rostrum.
Then, Liang Feng brought seven or eight young people to the stage, sat behind the table, and took out account books, paper, pens, ink pads, abacus and other things.
Everyone knows that the main event is coming.
Compared with commendations and feasts, what everyone cares more about is dividends. After all, everyone has been looking forward to this for more than half a year.
Just when everyone was looking forward to it, suddenly the door of the venue was pushed open again.
Immediately afterwards, a group of armed militiamen walked in from outside. The militiamen in front were walking in front carrying steel guns, and those behind were carrying snakeskin bags.
Under the gaze of thousands of people in the audience, this militia team quickly arrived in front of the rostrum, and then separated on both sides of the rostrum, like javelins, very imposing.
The militiamen carrying the snakeskin bags carried them to the rostrum and placed them on a large square table next to them.
Liang Feng, the old accountant, stepped forward in person to hand over to the militia captain, and opened all the snakeskin bags under the watchful eyes of all the members.
Then, a shocking scene appeared!
In everyone's stunned eyes, Liang Feng and others took out bundles of banknotes from their snakeskin pockets and placed them on the table.
The whole process lasted for half an hour. After all the money was taken out, a mountain of money was built up on two large square tables measuring one meter by one meter!
"hiss!"
"Gulu!"
The entire scene was silent, except for the sounds of gasps and swallowing.
Neither ordinary members nor the leaders have ever seen so much money.
In fact, it's not just them, Zhou Yang himself is the same. He has never seen so much cash.
Even though the amount to be distributed today is only a little over 5 million, it doesn't sound like much.
But these days, the largest denomination of banknotes is only 10 yuan. A full page of 100 yuan is only 1,000 yuan, and 5 million is 5,000 yuan in cash.
And it’s not all about unity, there are also a large number of one-, two-, and five-yuan banknotes, as well as a large number of dimes.
It can be said that Babao Liang Village used 5 million yuan to create a projection effect worth 500 million yuan for future generations. It was so shocking.
After all the funds were prepared, Liang Feng immediately gave Zhou Yang a "OK" gesture.
After getting Liang Feng's signal, Zhou Yang coughed lightly, and then said: "Comrades and fellow villagers, we have eaten and watched the show. Now comes the most exciting moment. I announce the Babao Liang United The village dividend meeting starts now..."
"Pa bang bang..."
As soon as he finished speaking, the audience burst into warm applause again.
“Comrade Li Jianguo, on behalf of the village committee, is now invited to announce this year’s income and expenditure of the village as well as the dividend plan. Everyone welcomes it with applause!”
Later, amid the warm applause of the members, the burly Li Jianguo strode onto the podium.
Then, he came to the microphone and spoke with a slight stutter about the village's income and expenditure this year.
And when the leaders in the audience heard the series of data that Li Jianguo followed, they were once again deeply shocked...
.........
(Those who see it will get rich!)
