Chapter 425 Hidden Benefits
Well, the chances are slim!
The guard team finally caught someone who knows how to make Chinese medicine pills, they can't just abandon him.
Even if she wants to change her job in the future, she will have to take care of this aspect of work.
However, it is still early and it is hard to say what the future will be like.
Bi Qiaoan curled his lips and said, "Let's talk about it later."
Shen Yanming smiled, let go of her and went into the kitchen to prepare lunch for them.
"Well, what should I cook?" Shen Yanming thought, I have to deal with the vegetables that Li Gangtie sent first!
He took out two cucumbers, cut them up and mixed them into a cold dish, and took out two tomatoes and made some scrambled eggs with tomatoes.
As for the eggplant, I fried it with the green pepper and potatoes in the space to make a dish of three fresh vegetables.
Just add a pot of rice and you're done.
Of course, when eating, Shen Yanming took out a portion of sweet and sour pork ribs from the space. This is the best combination of meat and vegetables.
However, the imperfection was that the meal was not ready until after 1pm, so the two of them did not have much time to rest after eating.
The dishes were not washed, so they were left piled in the sink. The two of them quickly lay in bed for twenty minutes, then got up, washed, changed their clothes, and went out.
On the way, Shen Yanming was wondering if he worked too slowly or if they ate too much, otherwise why would time be so tight.
What he didn't know was that the guards either went home to eat ready-made food or went to restaurants to eat ready-made food. There were very few people like him who cooked at home, so he felt nervous.
Of course, there is also the reason that Bi Qiaoan is pregnant and cannot share the burden. Otherwise, if the two of them cooked and cleaned up together, there wouldn’t be this sense of urgency.
Shen Yanming didn't know, so he went directly to Guo Tingshuo to ask. He didn't hide anything and told everyone's situation.
"Most unmarried people live in dormitories, and they eat in restaurants, which they pay for. Of course, they can only eat by themselves, and takeout is not allowed.
Those who are married and live in dormitories still eat in the dining room. Those who have single rooms or suites and bring their wives and children over can cook for themselves.
The guard team distributes benefits once a week, which is a week's supply of vegetables for each guard. If a guard can cook for himself and save some money, his family can also benefit from it.
Of course, this benefit is only for guards who do not dine in the restaurant.”
Shen Yanming was stunned after hearing this. He didn't expect that they would directly distribute "food". This is really not much different from supporting them.
Outside, even if you work hard, you may not be able to buy vegetables even if you have money.
Guo Tingshuo looked at the two people's dazed expressions and smiled, "The good thing about our guard team is that we have no problem eating and drinking. Otherwise, why do you think you have to go through a strict assessment to get in?
You two are lucky. You have two guards and can get two meals every week. There is no old or young, so you can't finish them all.
However, we have a milk powder production line here, you two can apply to replace vegetables with milk powder. Qiao An is pregnant, so generally the application will not be rejected at this time. "
Bi Qiaoan's eyes lit up, "Is there such a good thing?"
"Of course!" Guo Tingshuo chuckled, "There are many more good things to come. In the future, you two will understand how lucky you are to be able to come in."
Neither of them had any doubt about this.
While Bi Qiaoan was still excited that there was finally milk powder available, Shen Yanming had already filled out the application form.
The two portions of vegetables filled in were exchanged for milk powder.
"You won't leave any dishes?" Guo Tingshuo asked in surprise.
Chen Yanming shook his head. "The exchange rate is very low. Even if we start saving from now on, Qiao An and I can't exchange for a few barrels of milk powder. If possible, I would like to apply for an advance and exchange all our vegetables for milk powder in the next two years."
Bi Qiaoan came back to his senses and bent down to look at the exchange rate. It clearly stated that eight bags of vegetables could be exchanged for one can of milk powder.
In other words, a month's worth of vegetable benefits for two people can only be exchanged for 700g of milk powder, which is only enough for a baby to drink for a week.
They have two babies, and even if they switch to vegetable food for two years, it can only barely sustain the babies for three months.
After Guo Tingshuo made the calculation, he understood the dilemma of the two, but the ratio was set by the leader and he had no choice.
After thinking for a while, he handed Shen Yanming another application form and said, “If you want an advance, then take it. I’ll apply for it for you.”
Shen Yanming took it and nodded, “Thank you!”
Guo Tingshuo waved his hand, "Don't just think about the milk powder problem, you also have to think about what to do with vegetables in the future. Our dormitory is small, and there is not much space for you to grow vegetables. If you have trouble getting vegetables, you will have to exchange them for something else."
"The guard team doesn't need to worry about this. We have a house in the city and grow vegetables. We go back on weekends to water and pollinate the vegetables. Even if the yield is affected, it will be enough for two people." Bi Qiaoan said nonchalantly.
"Well, it seems that I was worrying too much again." Guo Tingshuo said with a smile.
"You are not worrying too much. You are thinking about us. We are lucky to have a good leader like you." Bi Qiaoan's smile was a bit flattering. "If you hadn't reminded us, we wouldn't have known that the guard team has so many hidden benefits. Here, I really have to thank Uncle Guo on behalf of the children."
"Haha, just for these three words Uncle Guo, I have to get this done for you.
At that time, I will ask if I can exchange other things for milk powder. If I can, the child's future food problem will be solved.
Even if it doesn't work, don't worry, I have some millet at home, you can use it to make rice soup for the babies, at least we can make them plump and white."
Bi Qiaoan was somewhat touched, but still shook her head and refused: "Thank you for your kindness. My husband and I have been preparing since the early stages of pregnancy. Even if there is not enough milk powder, we have enough substitutes. Don't worry about that."
"No need!" Hearing this, Guo Tingshuo felt a little regretful, but he soon figured it out and said, "That's fine, I'll keep it for you two. If you need it someday, come and ask me for it."
This time the two did not refuse and responded directly: "Okay!"
Anyway, there are still many opportunities for contact. They just need to accept other people's kindness and look for opportunities to give back in the future.
Afterwards, the two said goodbye to Guo Tingshuo and returned to the office.
Shen Yanming had just started working on the finances of a team, so he had no say in many matters. So he didn't try to be annoying, but just looked through the various documents in the office.
Bi Qiaoan was still waiting for her employment result. She had nothing to do, so she sat aside bored and continued reading her novel.
It's not that she doesn't want to read medical books in the office, but it's not convenient to take the medical books in the space to outsiders, and the textbooks from outside are incomprehensible to her who doesn't know anything about medicine.
Sometimes she felt that being able to learn how to make pills according to the recipe was already a great thing.
There is no way, this is what a layman is like, he can only read from the book and copy what he has done.
