Chapter 25 Scorer Job

It has been a week since the village announced that Meng Wanqiu was elected as the scorer, but the aftermath of the farce is still fermenting, but it does not affect the lives of the Meng family.

When the other applicants heard that the winner was Meng Wanqiu, they all questioned Meng Wanqiu's ability. Some people even suspected that it was Accountant Wu who accepted the favor of Secretary Meng that allowed Meng Wanqiu to win the scorer job.

Accountant Wu was not used to those who made random guesses about him. He directly singled out the people and asked the applicants to come up with their own questions and compete with Meng Wanqiu again. The loser not only had to apologize, but also had to help the village pick manure.

The result was not surprising. Those who were not convinced were beaten up. Not only were they scolded by Accountant Wu, but they also had to go to the most smelly and dirty public toilet in the village to pick up shit.

However, there were three people who were fine. One was Xu Cheng who sat next to Meng Wanqiu, one was Ding Heng who didn't want to meddle in other people's business, and Gao Xianmei who said Jiang Xiuxiu left.

However, Zhang Xiuqing, who instigated others to suspect Accountant Wu, became the target of public criticism. Others hated Zhang Xiuqing. If Zhang Xiuqing hadn't said that Accountant Wu might have colluded with Secretary Meng, they would not have barged into Accountant Wu's house. As a result, they ended up picking up shit.

Meng Wanqiu had heard about the fate of these people, and to her, these were all irrelevant people, and there was no need to waste energy on them.

After becoming a scorekeeper, Accountant Wu had been taking Meng Wanqiu with him for the past few days. The scorekeeper did not have the right to set work points for the members who went to work, but the brigades under the commune uniformly set the scoring standards, and the scorekeeper's duty was just to "record" and implement them.

Work points are generally based on ten, and fluctuate up and down according to the intensity of labor and the length of working hours. Usually 2 points in the morning, 4 points each in the morning and afternoon.

These requirements are not complicated, and they are simply not a big deal for Meng Wanqiu. The only thing that bothers her is that she cannot sleep in every morning and must get up at the same time as Pei Xingzhi and the others.

At the same time, Accountant Wu also told Meng Wanqiu three sentences, "fixed points and fixed record", "fixed points and live record" and "live points and live record".

The livestock breeders in the production team, such as Zhou Pozi, are older and physically weak, but they are good at feeding livestock. They work all year round, regardless of the weather, so the work points of this kind of people are fixed.

The team leader, deputy team leader, accountant, such as Meng Aiguo, of the production team, receive subsidies of three to four hundred yuan every year. Now Meng Wanqiu is the same as them and can get subsidies at the end of the year.

This kind of situation belongs to "fixed points and fixed record".

The "dead points and live records" are completely opposite to the former. The time of this kind of work is not stable, and the working hours and intensity are not fixed. Just like the last time Pei Xingzhi and Meng Aiguo went outside to dig ditches, they needed to move stones, resist cement, etc., which are all heavy work. This requires "live records". You can't just record 10 points as usual, and you need to be spontaneous.

"Live points and live records" are similar to the above, mainly to mobilize the enthusiasm of members.

These are not difficult, but Accountant Wu told Meng Wanqiu that the difficulty is not how to record points, but people.
