Qin Huairu finally coaxed Xiaodang to sleep and carried him into the house. Her son Banggeng was clamoring for meat and wanted to set off firecrackers like Zeng Xiaoqiang.
Helpless, she thought for a while and said to her mother-in-law: "Mom, why don't we ask the uncle to help with this matter? The uncle and Zeng Wangcai are not at odds, and he is the uncle, so maybe he can help."
Jia Zhang's eyes rolled around, and after a while she nodded: "Okay, I'll go talk to him when he comes back in the evening."
Then Jia Zhang suddenly sighed: "How come Zeng Wangcai is so capable that he can get supplies even after joining the army?"
"You don't know yet?" Qin Jingru recalled the news she had heard, "Zeng Wangcai is now an officer and a platoon leader. I just heard Uncle San tell his boss that Zeng Wangcai manages dozens of soldiers and gets paid more than fifty yuan a month."
"Over fifty dollars a month? He didn't even have that much when he was in the steel mill. Who said Zeng Wangcai has no future if he joins the army?"
"I don't know. It was said by the first uncle. He is less than 20 years old, and this is only more than 50 yuan a month. The only ones in our hospital who can compare with him are the first and second uncles, right?"
Jia Zhang nodded. In the entire courtyard, these two were the only people whose salary income could match Zeng Wangcai's.
That’s not all. They can also get scarce supplies, which is much more than a salary…
When she thought of this, Jia Zhang felt as if she was being scratched by a cat and felt uncomfortable.
On the other side, Zeng Wangcai took a tricycle and loaded the divided supplies, a total of three bags, each bag contained two fish, ten kilograms of meat, ten kilograms of flour, two kilograms of oil, and two kilograms of sugar.
The three pockets correspond to three families, all of whom are close relatives that must be visited, the families of Lin Huyang and Huang Liang, and then the family of teacher Zhou Yuanbai who has finally returned.
However, before going to the three companies, Zeng Wangcai had to go to the street office first, and then go to the purchasing station to find Director Qian.
These two places are related to Zeng Wangcai's subsequent stripping operation. In addition to these two places, there is also the steel rolling mill to go to in the end.
There are many people to meet and many things to do, so Zeng Wangcai is very busy.
Lin Fusheng and his men were asked to watch over the truck. In this day and age, with so many supplies, it would not do if no one was watching over them.
The rest of the work could only be done by Zeng Wangcai and Zhang Xiuzhi together. They came to the street office, which was very lively. As it was near the end of the year, the work of the street office was numerous and complicated.
"Hey, Brother Li, is Aunt Zhang here?" Zeng Wangcai parked his car in front of the street office and happened to see a familiar clerk from the street office.
"You are... Hey, Wangcai, you're back? You were wearing so much that I almost didn't recognize you. Are you looking for Director Zhang? Just go in, I'll help you push the cart. What's on the cart? It's so heavy..."
