Zhang Weiguo transmigrates to that era of scarcity, a time of lacking clothes and food.
He is a decorated veteran who has been transferred to a position as the head of the purchasing departme...
After Zhang Weiguo finished his meal, he returned to the office. Liu Wen was the only one doing statistics in the office.
I watered the two pots of green plants with some spiritual spring water.
This is the most unique scenery in Zhang Weiguo’s office. We can’t let it die.
In the entire courtyard, only the third uncle grows potted plants, and he grows them very well. It’s just that he was born in the wrong era. In this era, no one would buy green plants.
Otherwise, the third uncle will get rich, Zhang Weiguo thought, why not come back and buy a few pots from the third uncle.
Zhang Weiguo took a fancy to the two potted plants of the third uncle.
The small shape has eighteen bends. In later times, such a pot would cost tens of thousands.
I came back and discussed it with the third uncle and asked him to sell two pots.
As long as you pay the money, Uncle San is willing to negotiate anything.
Zhang Weiguo left the steel mill and came back near the end of the afternoon.
When he came back, the bicycle was loaded with 100 kilograms of cabbage and two chickens.
Cabbage is five cents a pound, so one hundred pounds of cabbage is five dollars. A chicken is two dollars, and two chickens are four dollars.
After giving these things to Liu Wen, Zhang Weiguo took nine dollars and left.
Just leave these small amounts of supplies to Liu Wen to count.
She will record everyone's daily collection.
Once the materials have been counted, they will be handed over to the purchasing department.
I went to the finance department and got a hundred yuan and a ten-kilogram oil ticket.
I took out a chicken from the space and planned to stir-fry it today.
Zhang Weiguo raises big roosters.
I originally planned to invite the third uncle to eat with us, but I didn’t meet him at the door.
I was also thinking about discussing the potted plant issue with Uncle Three.
Unfortunately, the third uncle was not at home, so I had to eat by myself.
Zhang Weiguo closed the door at home and started to fry the chicken, pouring more oil into the pan first.
Then add ginger slices, add more ginger slices, otherwise the fried chicken will not be fragrant.
Then pour in a few pieces, don't turn them over, wait until one side is shaped, then turn them over.
Keep stirring like this until a few pieces turn slightly yellow, then they are almost done.
Then pour in soy sauce and bean paste and start stir-frying to change the color.
Then pour in boiling water, wait until the pot boils, and then add the scallion segments.
Stir-fry a few more times and it’s ready to serve.
Zhang Weiguo ate two steamed buns with chicken soup.
Information about Zhang Weiguo also spread in the courtyard.
He is the chief of the third purchasing department. He purchased five big fat pigs on his first day at work. Today he was praised and rewarded with 100 yuan and a ten-jin oil ticket.
Zhang Weiguo didn't know what they were thinking. His current task was procurement, so he had to complete his task this year first.
Zhang Weiguo has actually completed this year's task. The task for the year is to earn 3,000 yuan. Zhang Weiguo has been at the steel rolling mill for only four months, and the task for four months is to earn 1,000 yuan.
Therefore, Zhang Weiguo had completed the task long ago.
The factory may have taken this reason into consideration, so it gave Zhang Weiguo a reward of 100 yuan.
The task was completed in one go and even exceeded the target.
How can such workers not be happy in the factory?
People of this era don't live in big houses, they just want to eat, and being full is enough.
Others will not be considered at all.
Zhang Weiguo knew that in the front yard of this courtyard, there was an old lady in her eighties. She was a real hero. Her husband died on the battlefield, her son died on the battlefield, and her grandson died on the battlefield.
Grandma Wang is the only one left in the family of three generations.
The neighborhood office wanted to send Grandma Wang to a nursing home where she would have someone to take care of her, but Grandma Wang refused to go.
The street office has no choice but to send some food over from time to time.
Doctors come to check on the old man regularly. The old man is in good health and can walk very fast with his little feet leaning on a cane.
Director Wang from the street office was afraid that the old lady would be bullied, so he specifically found the three uncles to talk to. He pulled out a gun and told the three uncles that if anyone came to the street office to report that someone was bullying Grandma Wang.
Director Wang was shot without a second thought. Although Director Wang was in her forties and usually looked amiable, she was no ordinary person and had been an underground worker in the past.
There is no ambiguity when it comes to killing people.
The three old men looked at the black muzzle of the gun and felt like they had walked through the gates of hell.
No one dared to disrespect Grandma Wang, for fear that Director Wang would take action.
These people have death targets every year, so killing one or two people is no big deal.
The medals on the wall of Grandma Wang's house would shake three times when the devil came.
That was all earned at the cost of his life. Zhang Weiguo was able to become a battalion-level cadre at such a young age, which was also earned at the cost of his life. It's just that Zhang Weiguo was lucky and did not die.
Zhang Weiguo added half of the chicken that he had weighed out in advance and six white flour buns.
Send it to Grandma Wang. As long as you have served in the army, no matter which unit you were in, you are all comrades-in-arms.
Tell Grandma Wang that Zhang Weiguo will deliver whatever she wants to eat next time.
Grandma Wang said frankly, what a good grandson.
So what if he is a grandson? Zhang Weiguo is willing to be this grandson.
As soon as Zhang Weiguo left Grandma Wang's house, he met the third uncle.
"Is Third Uncle going for a walk?"
"Zhang Weiguo, why are you here in the front yard?"
"I fried a chicken, but couldn't finish it, so I gave half of it to Grandma Wang, right?"
When the third uncle heard the word fried chicken, he swallowed unconsciously.
Hearing this, Grandma Wang shuddered again unconsciously.
Whenever he saw Grandma Wang, he would take a detour for fear that she would fall. Some people said that he did it.
Director Wang was shot directly.
He dare not provoke.
Zhang Weiguo took out a box of Daqianmen and handed one to the uncle.
The two of them were smoking and chatting in front of the door of the three houses.
Gradually, Zhang Weiguo shifted the focus to the bonsai in his third uncle's house.
"Uncle, you take good care of your potted plants."
When the third uncle heard this, he became excited.
The third uncle said: "This is the only hobby I have left, and I usually treasure it very much."
The third uncle took Zhang Weiguo to see his potted plants.
Zhang Weiguo said it well.
Breakthrough, Zhang Weiguo asked: "Uncle, are you selling these potted plants?"
This question confused the third uncle?
Sell?
Can these potted plants still be sold?
But someone has to buy it. Who would buy this these days?
Zhang Weiguo said, "Uncle, how about I buy two pots?"
"Look at what's in my room, I think this potted plant is pretty good?"
The third uncle said, "Yes, yes."
"Which two pots do you want?"
"Uncle, how about I buy two pots for ten dollars?"
"Ten dollars for two pots?"
The third uncle thought that Zhang Weiguo would only give one or two dollars.
I didn't expect that just one mouth would cost ten dollars.
Ten dollars is almost half of his monthly salary.
Immediately asked Zhang Weiguo to pick two pots.
Zhang Weiguo selected two pots and gave the old man ten yuan.
Zhang Weiguo went back with two potted plants.
The third uncle took the ten yuan and shared it with the third aunt. After dinner, he earned ten yuan, which was enough for more than a month's living expenses.
