"If you have to think of a way, at least you have to eat enough!" Yu Aiguo said with emotion.

When Qin Jun heard this, what he wanted was your words.

“Every household doesn’t have much food, and it’s still early for the wheat harvest!”

Before Qin Jun said anything, Qin Zheng spoke.

Qin Jun also said: "I just drank a bowl of glutinous rice this morning."

Qin Jun was really embarrassed to say the professional name of Zhu Shi.

"Who doesn't drink porridge in the morning? It's good to have thick soup at noon and evening!" Qin Zhengdao.

Yu Aiguo was speechless, what could he say? He knew very well what was going on in the village.

But who is not in this situation now? Whether it is enough or not, it means that no matter whether it is enough or not, each person can only get up to 360 kilograms of grain per year.

This number is really quite large, because this year, on average, one kilogram of food a day is enough to keep people full.

However, these three hundred and sixty kilograms of grain are all.

For example, for their team, the best food is wheat, not white flour, which can be divided into twenty or thirty kilograms per person at most.

The next peanut, this one is pressed for oil, weighs an average of twenty or thirty kilograms per person.

Next is the key point. Corn is the staple food, and the amount of this allocation is relatively large, with an average of about 100 kilograms per person.

Then there are sweet potatoes, which are more, at least 150 pounds per person.

Compared to other places, or compared to difficult times, here they distribute dried sweet potatoes instead of moist sweet potatoes.

However, these staple grains only add up to 300 kilograms, and other bits and pieces of millet, sorghum, soybeans, mung beans, and sesame seeds only weigh 50 to 60 kilograms.

This is enough to collect 360 kilograms of grain per person, of which only 2780 kilograms at most is the staple food for meals.

Logically speaking, on average, these grains should be at least seven or eight taels per day, enough to satisfy one's needs.

However, this is based on logic. For example, in later generations, these grains can feed two people for a day.

But things are different now. They all do heavy work, so they are all big-bellied people. Such a small amount of food is definitely not enough to eat.

Also, not everyone can share the three hundred and sixty kilograms of food, such as children.

A family, on average, will have less food on each person's head.

Especially if there are some middle-aged people in the family who don’t earn cents, they can’t get much food, but they really don’t have much to eat.

Therefore, no matter which family it is now, under the quantitative food distribution system, they are in the same situation, and they are all hovering on the line of hunger.

Of course, the situation of people in the city is better, and the situation of workers with light physical work is also better. After all, the work is not heavy and they eat less.

If you can still have a little oil and water, you will eat less.

Obviously, rural people cannot do this, let alone strong workers who are constantly doing physical work.

"Since we are making money, we can't be misers. If it doesn't work, we can subsidize it!"

Uncomfortable being stared at by Qin Zheng and Qin Jun, Yu Aiguo had no choice but to compromise.

Qin Zheng shook his head, but he was not satisfied.

"Subsidies are not enough. Whether it is money or food, they don't get much."

Qin Jun also had the same idea. After all, no one who earns food or money can enjoy it alone!

Take it home and eat it together as a family? This still cannot solve the physical problem of kiln workers.

Qin Jun said directly: "Instead of subsidizing money and food, it is better to set up a small canteen."

"Small canteen? There is some mobile food in the village!"

Qin Zheng glanced at Qin Jun and said immediately.

Yu Aiguo also looked at Qin Jun: "It is not easy to run a small canteen. After all, there is not much mobile food in the village, right?"

Qin Zheng immediately said: "It's easy. If the mobile food is gone, isn't there still bargaining food?"

Yu Aiguo nodded: "The commune has a lot of negotiated grain, but the price is a bit high, and most people are reluctant to buy it!"

Qin Zhengdao: "Why do we set up a factory? Is it not to facilitate the masses and serve the members?"

"In this case, it doesn't matter how much you make."

"Also, after making money, more than half of it has to be handed over to the commune."

"And if you buy high-priced grain, won't the money end up in the hands of the commune? The same thing!"

Yu Aiguo took a deep look at Qin Zheng and said, "You should make good accounts and follow the rules. If you cross the line, you will make a mistake."

Qin Zheng immediately said: "I will never cross the line. For example, my salary here is based on the lowest."

"This is not necessary. If the salary is really low, you can get it back through various subsidies. After all, there are only six people in total."

After speaking, Yu Aiguo waved his hand to stop Qin Zheng from saying anything else.

"The coal you want will be delivered tomorrow. Of course, the extra manpower will also come. Make arrangements. Okay, I have to go back to the commune. It's already a bit late!"

"It's noon. Let's go after dinner, right? It just so happens that the canteen can be set up today!"

Qin Zheng pulled Yu Aiguo and had to let him eat before leaving.

But the current cadres are really honest. No matter what Qin Zheng did, Yu Aiguo still left.

"As you wish?" Qin Zheng said after Yu Aiguo walked away.

Qin Jun chuckled and said, "How can you say that? By setting up a small canteen, everyone will benefit!"

Qin Zheng shook his head and said: "What can we do to benefit everyone? It would be best to provide a free lunch without paying for it, but can we afford it?"

"Besides, if lunch is served, isn't it just like eating in a big cafeteria? Eat as much as you want. How much food can you cook to eat?"

"If it's not free, charging is troublesome. No matter how high the salary we offer, how many people do you think are willing to eat out?"

"Director Yu has thought of these things, so he reminds us to follow the rules."

"If we really follow the rules, whether we can run this small canteen or not, it doesn't really matter!"

After Qin Zheng finished speaking, he already had a sad look on his face.

But the Qin army had already planned and planned it. How could he have thought of this?

"It must be done, but the method needs to be changed."

"Since some people are reluctant to eat, we will change the meal subsidy we distribute. This subsidy is to keep workers fed so that they have the strength to work."

“So, our food can be priced and placed, but we must charge money.”

"The price needs to be carefully planned, and try to set a price that is neither high nor low, preferably lower than the market price!"

"I remember that wheat now costs 12.1 kilograms, right? One kilogram of wheat can produce eight taels of ordinary flour, and one kilogram of flour can steam 1.5 kilograms of steamed buns."

"If you calculate it this way, one pound of wheat can produce one or two pounds of steamed buns."

"In other words, the cost of a pound of steamed buns is 10 cents."

"Of course, there is still some wheat bran left, which is just a good salary for a chef."

"This will make it easier to subsidize. Can a steamed bun cost two cents?"

Qin Zheng felt something was wrong as soon as he heard it, but he didn't expect anything was wrong.

But there are still questions that should be asked: "Is the cost price of a pound of steamed buns 10 cents?"

"What we were talking about just now was bargaining food, right? Do you understand bargaining food?"

"It's just high-priced food. How much does your steamed bun cost? It only costs two cents?"

Qin Jun smiled and said: "There is no food in our village?"

"We produce grain, but we still have to buy negotiated grain? Why?"

"Just say, I pay two cents for a steamed bun, and I buy five for ten cents, which is exactly one pound. Do you think you are taking advantage?"

Qin Zhengdao: "If we use negotiated prices, how can we take advantage?"

Qin Jun said: "How much does it cost to sell steamed buns in the commune? Three cents each and two taels of food stamps! This requires using negotiated food. Isn't it a loss?"

"We are one penny short and don't need food stamps. What do you think we should do?"

"Let's not talk about this for now. When it comes to subsidies, my plan is to put the subsidies on food. This is the key point."

"Many times, some people are willing to eat, but not willing to eat vegetables!"

"If we subsidize 10 cents per person per day, all of it is subsidized on vegetables. If we could eat potatoes and cabbage, now we can put some meat on it."

"There are a total of twenty-six employees, and the daily subsidy is two yuan and sixty. Now a pound of meat seems to only cost eighty cents, right?"

"Take out two yuan and four and buy three kilograms of meat. Don't want the good ones. I want pig heads, big bones, offal and so on. Can I buy three kilograms in this way? After all, we have no tickets!"

"Three pounds per day, divided by twenty-six people, which is just over one or two pounds per person."

"It's definitely not much, but a little bit of meat every day can go a long way!"

"One meat dish every day, and eat it in different ways."

"If you eat, the subsidy will be in your stomach. If you don't eat, the subsidy will be gone!"

"Do you want to eat this or not?"

As Qin Jun explained, Qin Zheng also started thinking.

Although the steamed buns are not subsidized, they are so cheap that they can be said to be supplied at cost price.

If you don’t buy steamed buns like this, wouldn’t you be at a loss?

There are also meat dishes, which are subsidized, so they are only at a bargain price. This is absolutely tempting for people who don’t see meat dishes twice a year.

So, how could you not eat it?
