Chapter 374: Banggeng Returns Home

Shimen Village.

The brigade's courtyard was bustling with activity, and the village cadres were sweating profusely to maintain order.

Besides the villagers of Shimen Village, the current brigade also included villagers from two surrounding villages.

Gathered together, there were six or seven hundred people; one sentence after another made one's head spin.

Cao Weiguo took out his Daqianmen cigarettes and generously distributed a round.

Seeing Cao Weiguo take out a lighter, the group of village cadres and young people were filled with envy.

The Sunflower-brand kerosene lighter was definitely a contemporary luxury item.

"Director Cao, this lighter of yours is truly beautiful."

"This lighter isn't cheap, right?"

"I don't know how much it costs either; a friend gave it to me."

Once Cao Weiguo said this, these people were even more envious.

This Director Cao truly had good connections.

Otherwise, would people give such good things?

Chu Mingyuan's eldest son, Chu Jianmin, leaned over and asked in a low voice:

"Director Cao, can you help me buy some things from the city?"

Cao Weiguo said nonchalantly: "Tell me first what you want to buy."

In this day and age, materials are scarce, and commodities cannot be bought just because one wants to; they all require coupons.

Chu Jianmin said with a thick skin: "I'm getting married at the end of the year, so I want to prepare some things, like a thermos, cloth, cotton, but I don't have that many industrial coupons in hand."

"These things, huh."

Cao Weiguo thought for a moment and said: "Write a list in a while, and I'll go back and help you look for them. I'll try my best to help you gather them."

Chu Jianmin thanked him happily: "Thank you, Director Cao. Please put in the effort; it doesn't matter if the price of the things is a bit higher."

Cao Weiguo laughed: "Don't be polite between us brothers. If I can help, I definitely will."

He often came to Shimen Village to purchase, and building a good relationship with the people in the village had no downsides.

While they were talking, a strong man walked in carrying a Mongolian gazelle on his back.

The Mongolian gazelle, also known as the yellow antelope, is actually not a type of sheep.

Its body is slender, but larger than the Tibetan gazelle and Przewalski's gazelle, and slightly more robust. Its head is round and blunt, its ears are long and pointed, and it has very dense hair.

Its limbs are slender, its front legs are slightly shorter, and its horny hooves are narrow and pointed.

The Mongolian gazelle is good at jumping and running.

In our country, it is distributed in Heilongjiang, Inner Mongolia, Gansu, Hebei, Shaanxi, Shanxi, Jilin, and other places.

The Mongolian gazelle is an important resource animal in our country; its leather is smooth and light, and can be processed into leather clothing, saddles, and other utensils;

The meat is edible, tastes delicious, and can also be made into meat floss and dried meat;

The horns can be made into various delicate handicrafts and can also be used as medicine, having the functions of clearing heat and detoxifying, calming the liver, and extinguishing wind;

It mainly treats high fever and delirium in febrile diseases, infantile convulsions, epilepsy, stroke, etc.,

Especially the antipyretic and anticonvulsant effects are relatively obvious.

This thing is a good thing!

Cao Weiguo was not stingy and took out thirty yuan to buy that Mongolian gazelle.

Currently, the market price of pork is eight mao per jin, and meat coupons are also required.

That dying Mongolian gazelle weighed fifty-six jin.

The price Cao Weiguo gave was definitely not low, and those villagers were envious and jealous.

Many men made up their minds to find time to go hunting in the mountains.

The money earned from one Mongolian gazelle was more than what they earned from working hard for half a year.

In the afternoon, Cao Weiguo left Shimen Village carrying the Mongolian gazelle with its legs tied.

Halfway there, in a place where no one was around, the Mongolian gazelle was transferred to the beautiful farm.

After untying its legs, it scurried around in panic. ===== CHAPTER 376 =====
