That day, the news that Zhu Siyuan was entangled with a strange woman spread everywhere in the unit.
The main thing is that many people acted as if they had seen it with their own eyes, and each one of them described it as if it were a true story.
There were even people who were filled with righteous indignation, as if they were the ones who had poured the basin of water on Zhu Siyuan's head.
However, due to the aftermath of the last struggle between the two leaders, no one dared to make a big deal out of this.
Lin Tian could only hide aside and laugh, but Li Wenhua always looked at him with suspicion. Although he had no evidence, he was sure that this matter was most likely spread by Lin Tian.
"You'd better be careful and don't let your leader catch you." Li Wenhua thought about it and advised Lin Tian.
"Absolutely safe." Lin Tian said these four words without any context.
However, Li Wenhua was cursing in his heart. It turned out that it was that bastard Lin Tian who did it, and he even kept it from me before.
The news spread, and Li Wenhua was quite happy about it, as it made it easier for him to find out more information.
Everyone thought that this story would circulate in the store for a while, but no one expected that another piece of news would be even more shocking.
Pork purchases are limited...
If you ask what news has the greatest impact on people in this era, it would of course be something related to food and drink.
Although this news has been reported before, it is clear that more people know about it this time. It should be that the authorities did not deliberately conceal it.
“Is this true? Why is there a purchase limit on good pork?” Some people in the store were still very skeptical.
"It should be true. Everyone says so. I heard that the leader said it at a meeting."
Anyway, all kinds of messy news were spreading.
However, Lin Tian knew that the news was indeed true. It would not be long before each household would be limited to one yuan of pork per day. By then, even the wealthy families would not be able to spend their money even if they had money and coupons.
After a while, each person will be given three meat coupons per month, each weighing 0.3 kilograms.
Moreover, it is only available to people with urban household registration. People like Jia Zhang in the courtyard do not have it. Moreover, the price of meat tickets becomes more expensive on the black market as time goes by.
In fact, the purchase restrictions have little impact on ordinary families, but if they are later distributed in the same way as staple food, then it will have an impact on many families.
"Do you think this is true?" Li Wenhua was a little undecided. In fact, Li Yunhua himself had an idea that this news was most likely true, because the pigs they were supplied with had been increased from every other day to every two days.
However, there was no bargaining at all for the five pigs provided by Wang Mingyu, so the entire grocery store pretended that this person did not exist, and everyone was happy to have such a person.
"Really? Each household is limited to purchasing one yuan per day." Lin Tian simply told Li Wenhua the result.
“This…” Li Wenhua hesitated.
"What is this? How much can you buy in a month? It won't affect much." Lin Tian said.
Jiang Shufen continued, "That's true. It affects only the wealthy families."
However, what Lin Tian did not continue to say was that after the eight or nine taels of meat coupons were issued in a month, they would be busy then.
This is the capital city these days, and there are many rich people. By then, the director of the meat processing factory will become the largest factory in the capital, and the people in the non-staple food store will become more popular because they can buy meat.
Lin Tian thought about it and decided to cut half of the pork for his second brother Lin Hao, and then give some to his brothers at home every month. It would be a token of his appreciation.
"You said that now that pork purchases are restricted, will the quantity in the store drop further?" Li Wenhua asked.
"It shouldn't happen in a short time." Lin Tian was telling the truth, that is, things won't change much during the difficult period.
People in the unit are concerned about whether the overall supplies will be reduced further, because there are already signs of reductions in various supplies.
Moreover, more and more people needed tickets, and everyone in the store witnessed this.
………
But it’s different for people in the compound. Ordinary people only care about whether it will affect what they eat.
Just after getting off work that day, I was stopped by the third uncle Yan Fugui at the gate of the compound.
"Xiao Lin, Uncle Three wants to ask you something." Yan Fugui pulled Lin Tian aside and said mysteriously.
"You say." Lin Tian was pulled aside by Yan Fugui and said.
"Uncle, I heard that pork will be hard to buy in the future? Is that true?" Yan Fugui asked.
Lin Tian thought it was something else. "You are well-informed and you are still concerned about this matter." Lin Tian said with a smile.
"How can we not care about this? This is closely related to our lives." Yan Fugui said,
"Don't be funny, Third Uncle, your family only buys meat a few times a year. Why do you care about this?" After saying this, Lin Tian was about to go into the yard.
Yan Fugui held Lin Tian back and said, "Just tell me if it's true."
Lin Tian could only say helplessly: "It's probably true, don't spread it around."
"I know, I know." After getting Lin Tian's confirmation, Yan Fugui was obviously thinking about something absent-mindedly.
However, Lin Tian didn't care about this. Instead, he was thinking that Yan Fugui was really well-informed.
Yan Fugui was also licking his teeth when he got home. Why? Because he was planning to buy some meat for speculation, but if he made it into bacon, he might lose money, but raw meat couldn't be kept for a few days. Yan Fugui was very distressed.
When Lin Tian returned home, he was thinking that starting from this incident, the next twenty years would be a period of extremely tight supplies.
However, Lin Tian hasn't thought it through yet, and doesn't have any plans to make a fortune.
The main reason was that Lin Tian, as a doctor, already had a public source of funding. Otherwise, it would be strange if he didn't become pale and thin due to hunger during the difficult times.
Although I won't be very popular in the next few years, I am still a formal employee of the grocery store.
Just when Lin Tian was daydreaming, someone came and knocked on the door.
Lin Tian opened the door and saw that it was Director Wu, who probably came to inquire about the news.
"Secretary Wu, please come in." Lin Tian said enthusiastically.
"No, Xiaolin, I'm here to ask you something." Secretary Wu said.
"You want to ask about the recent purchase restrictions, right?"
"Yes, people in the compound have been spreading rumors recently, saying all kinds of things. I thought that since you work in a grocery store, the information should be more accurate." Secretary Wu said.
"Secretary Wu, I won't hide it from you. There is indeed news about purchase restrictions. It says that each household is limited to one yuan per day, which will have little impact on ordinary people's families." Lin Tian explained.
"Then I feel relieved." Secretary Wu felt relieved after hearing that Lin Tian had accurate information.
After seeing Secretary Wu off, Lin Tian didn't take the matter to heart.
But he was thinking seriously and was preparing to continue looking for Zhu Siyuan's flaws to have some fun for himself.
