Chapter 279: Each Shows His Special Abilities



At this time, people valued food more. Without food, there would be no food to eat.

City dwellers have rationed food to eat, but rural residents do not. They can only eat the food they grow in the fields.

If the weather is good, we can harvest more food. If the weather is bad, the food production will decrease and there will not be enough food to eat.

They could only think of other ways, such as eating some wild mushrooms.

Even rice bran can be eaten.

It's no problem if they eat one less meal of pork, but it would be a big problem if they had no food to eat.

With the purchase price so high now, anyone who has pigs in the village wants to sell them for money.

Such a high purchase price is not common.

They don't want to miss such an opportunity.

Therefore, everyone wanted to sell one for money, or to exchange it for food coupons.

In these villages, more people exchanged their food coupons for food coupons.

With food stamps, they can also buy food.

Zhang Weiguo's work was going smoothly here, but it was not so smooth in Siheyuan.

First of all, Xu Damao didn’t bring many sweet potatoes, not enough for everyone to share.

If it were Xu Damao's own family, these sweet potatoes would be enough, but unfortunately there were more than twenty households in the entire courtyard, and there were simply not enough sweet potatoes to go around.

With Jia Zhang around, how could these sweet potatoes be distributed to others?

After she made such a fuss, no one else got any sweet potatoes.

They were all taken home by Jia Zhang.

The food problem in the Siheyuan was not solved at all.

The pressure still fell on the three uncles.

This put the three uncles under a lot of pressure. It was easy for them to get some food for themselves, but it was not an easy task to satisfy so many people.

The first and second uncles have high salaries, so it is no problem for them to buy food at a high price.

But it’s different for the third uncle. The whole family eats together, and he has the lowest salary. If he has to buy food at a high price, the money he has will not be enough.

This is also the area where the third uncle is the most active, as it concerns the lives of his entire family.

The old man has only two children and an unborn baby. Even if he spends a lot of money on delicious food, his salary is enough.

The second uncle's family now has only one young son at home, so there are three people in the family. The second uncle's salary is enough to buy high-priced food.

When it comes to finding food, it would be best if they can find it. Even if they can't, it will have the least impact on them.

The third uncle is different. The whole family lives together. Even if the eldest son starts working, the salary of two people is still not enough for seven people.

Food is the most important thing to them. If they can buy food at a low price, the third uncle will certainly not be willing to buy food at a high price.

When it comes to finding food, the third uncle is the most active.

The three uncles planned to go to the countryside to see if there was anyone selling grain.

Since they came to the old city, they seldom went back to the countryside and had long lost contact with it.

They are all able to find food.

They would go there when they were off duty. Among the people here, only the third uncle lived closer to Sijiu City, so he could just ride his bike there. The others had to take a bus and then change buses.

The other people in the courtyard were also trying to find solutions on their own.

They would go to the pigeon market in the evening to see if there was any food to sell.

They would not count on the three uncles. They knew who the three uncles were. It would be too much to count on them.

It’s better to find a way to get some yourself. If you can go to the countryside, go there to get some. If you can’t go there, go to the pigeon market. If that doesn’t work, go fishing.

You can also go hunting in the forest outside the city and catch some rabbits or something.

As long as you hang out a bit, you should be able to get some good food.

If they exchange fine grains for coarse grains and then bring back some leftovers from the factory, they will be able to eat their fill.

They all have salaries and are able to support their families.

Life is difficult for some people without jobs, and they earn seven or eight yuan by doing odd jobs.

Their lives became more difficult.

There is more food in the factory, and although there is a shortage of meat, there is no problem in having enough to eat.

The monthly ration for the steel rolling mill is quite high, and all the work is hard work. If you don’t have enough to eat, you won’t have the energy to work.

Therefore, in terms of food, the steel mills have not been treated unfairly.

The steel mill is not short of money. Now it has received new production tasks, and its efficiency is even better.

There is no shortage of money.

The factory is not short of money when it comes to purchasing materials.

As long as the materials can be purchased, the factory has never defaulted on payments.

It's physical work, and there are very high requirements in this aspect.

Moreover, these leaders are willing to eat in special kitchens with better food.

When they eat meat, they will always let others have some soup.

If production efficiency is affected and production tasks cannot be completed, these leaders are still responsible.

For the sake of their own future, they will not deduct employees' living expenses in this regard.

Only by completing production tasks better can their future be guaranteed.

These are their political achievements, and they will not go wrong for their own achievements.

People in this era all emphasize dedication, but you can't ask others to just make contributions without giving them food.

When it comes to food, the leaders of these factories all have their own tastes.

Deputy Director Li has done in-depth research in this area.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have asked Sha Zhu to cook for them specially.

This is partly because business dealings enable better negotiation of business cooperation.

They also like to eat and like to show off to others.

The food at the steel rolling mill is considered pretty good among the surrounding large factories.

The welfare benefits at the steel rolling mill are among the best among these factories.

Last Chinese New Year, the factory provided benefits including pork and flour.

There is no better benefit than this in these big companies.

They also want to distribute pork. Who doesn't want to bring some good stuff to the factory? But pork is not something you can buy whenever you want.

Not to mention so much pork. If there were only a few pigs, it would be easy to deal with.

But if there are dozens of pigs, it will not be easy to get them.

This time, the steel mill’s welfare is still pork.

Pork is even more difficult to get this year.

Other factories can forget about it. If they want to sell pigs, they have to pay the same price as Zhang Weiguo, or at least not lower than this price.

Many people are unwilling to pay this price, let alone a price higher than the qualified price.

If they buy at this price, they will all lose money.

It was impossible for them to buy so many pigs.

One pig costs three hundred yuan, ten pigs cost three thousand yuan, and twenty pigs cost six thousand yuan.
