Chapter 36 Arrangement
The village chief shook his head: "My father is dying. He is not cold, but sick. This is a world of ice and snow..."

"What should we do? Many people have lost their families." There are quite a few extinct households.

The village head will be speechless for a while, and the brigade will light a fire, and people will come one after another.

Everyone's faces were ugly.

This is equivalent to going to beat half of the village in one breath.

"You have to take care of it, you can't tell people to just..." They were all standing and lying outside.

"It's impossible to have so many coffins..." Zhou Hu said.

"Or, let's discuss the cremation. If the weather suddenly gets warmer, so many people...it's easy to get into trouble." Zhou Zhigao said.

If there is another plague, there will be no one in this village.

"For those who are extinct, we can make the decision. For those who still have people in the family, we don't count." The village chief said.

"I can agree. My family should be able to do it. I'll go back and persuade you. Only as many as you can talk about. But the cremation must be settled first. I don't know when to wait for the army car. My son said that the car is too late in this weather." I can't come." Cao Ping said.

"Yes, hey." The village chief sighed: "First organize the manpower and settle them down. If there are no households, just put them in the house. If there are still people, it depends on where they are willing to settle. At this time, we can't care too much. , do whatever you can."

The village chief wiped his face.

In fact, he has no great prospects as the village chief. Who knows that the village chief has so many things to do now that he can't be contacted at all.

But there is no way, if he doesn't care about it, won't it be a mess?
"Listen to you, do whatever you say." Zhou Zhigao said.

Everyone went back to have dinner, and then the men went to help.

Liu Ya didn't insist on this matter, and Zhou Zhigao didn't allow Xiao Chen to go, but Xiao Chen still went.

"This is really lifeless." Ma Fen was in a daze when he got up in the morning.

"Mom, our family is still here." Liu Ya patted her mother on the back.

Ma Fen nodded: "With so many people in the village gone, it will be even more deserted in the future."

"That can't be helped. Once this happens, in the future... everyone will know to be careful." Liu Ya said.

I can only think so.

In the end, most people agreed that when the troops came, they would take the body away and cremate it.

There are also a few who disagree, and they don't insist, so they stop for now, wait until it is warm enough to dig the ground, and send it out.

Under these circumstances, it is not easy to hold a funeral.

The village head took a few authoritative people in the village to sort out the houses that had disappeared.

The materials are moved to the brigade headquarters first.

Lock the door again.

The keys are kept with the village chief.Because the materials taken away were only food, and there were other things in the family, they could not be moved for the time being.

As for the food, the village head directly used the generator and turned on the loudspeaker to broadcast.

"These foods are stored in the brigade first. In our village, there are times when it is difficult. It doesn't matter now, it's not me, the village head, who is greedy for these. When the time is really hard to solve, I will share. The specific amount, everyone Listen to my broadcast below. You are also welcome to check. Another thing, in our village, three teams will organize three militia teams. I am afraid that there will be a lot of things in the village in the future. Carefully discuss how much is appropriate. For example, if there is a matter of moving the remains, the militiamen will come first. As for the militiamen, they are under 35 and over [-]."

"This militia is voluntary. If you want to be a member, you can come to the brigade to sign up."

After the village chief finished broadcasting, he sat down with the captains of the three teams and ordered supplies.

Slowly someone came.

There are also many who are willing to be militiamen.Although many people froze to death this time, the village has not yet reached the point where there is no food to eat, so although everyone's heart has changed a lot.

But it hasn't reached the point where just eating for one bite is not a human being.

In the end, 32 people met the conditions and were willing to be the militia.

It was decided on the spot, and then each captain was appointed.

On the Zhoujiazhuang side, Zhou Hu was the captain.

No one from Liu Ya's family attended.

Zhou Zhigao's age is not suitable, Xiao Chen is not from the village after all, no one said anything about him if he didn't take the initiative to sign up.

After everyone made a decision, they all discussed at the brigade headquarters, basically counting the supplies, and then assigning a route to see the village.

For example, militias are obliged to inspect the village after heavy snowfall, or organize villagers to sweep the streets.

"Usually, for a family of five, plus the messy purchase of meat and vegetables, 2000 catties of grain is enough for a year. Now we can't buy too much. Let's calculate this figure as 3000 catties," the village chief said while saying. Ask my daughter to write.

"That is, one year, an adult needs 600 catties of grain to maintain. Of course, this is not salt, oil and sugar. It's just food that can't starve to death."

"A person weighs 600 catties a year, so that translates to more than six taels per catty a day. My opinion is that a militiaman should be supplemented with 25 catties of food a month. Of course, this is calculated according to coarse grains. I am afraid that fine grains are not so much. A lot. In addition, half a catty of salt and half a catty of sugar are supplemented every six months."

"In addition, I did the math yesterday. Didn't it mean that people eat four grams of salt a day? But we can't calculate it that finely. We have to exceed it every day. So if we change things in the future, the salt has to be considered expensive. After all, food can still be grown, but I don’t know if I can have salt for a while. In the future, one catty of salt can be exchanged for ten catties of grain. This is also a loss.”

"That's okay, but who can pay 25 catties a month for the militia?" an old man said.

"Don't be sorry for this little thing. It looks like a mess. It's the Chinese New Year again. I'm afraid there will be everything down there. If there are no such young people in our village, what should we do if something happens? Who dares to say that they are all right?" the village chief asked.

"You're right, isn't it a food problem now?" The old man sighed while smoking a pipe.

"The more difficult it is, the more careful you are. Uncle, that's why I say these supplies are for public use." The village chief sighed.

"Actually, if so many people die in our village, I'm afraid the city below will not be good. In the short term, there won't be too much shortage of supplies. What matters now is people. Right now, no one knows whether we can grow crops after the spring begins. If not..." Xiao Chen shook his head.

"Besides, we are from the same village, and it's not useless to raise militiamen. Besides, these 32 people are all inferior to the people in the village. They are all familiar with each other. They can afford to support one in the family. It may be useless now, but God It’s warm, if you can’t plant the land, who can guarantee that no one will come to grab things? It will be too late to organize.”

"What you said is right." The old man nodded.

"Besides, the militiamen are now protecting the village, but if it's spring, they can't farm the land, maybe they will do something else. Hunting or something. Although it was forbidden before, now people can't live anymore." Xiao Chen said again .
