The garment factory has returned to normal operations, and everyone is starting to look forward to the Dragon Boat Festival.
There are so few times when we can see meat during the year. Every time I buy a pound of meat, I wish I could make eight ounces of salted pork.
You should know that pork is not available every day, and even if it is, you might not be able to buy it.
Before it could even be put on the market, half of it had already been sold internally.
So, at this time, it's not a problem to have enough to eat in the city, but it's unlikely to be a good meal.
Without connections or anything, you won't get your hands on the good stuff.
On the Dragon Boat Festival, all the factory workers were beaming with joy, and they all lined up early with their lunchboxes, waiting to receive their meals.
The main reason is that most people want to take the food back to their families.
It's not easy to get a decent meal at this time of year, and everyone tacitly understands that.
"Everyone line up! Don't push!" Chef Sun started serving the food while shouting for everyone to keep order.
It's a pity, everyone is crammed in.
"Hey, don't push me!"
"You're pushing me from behind!"
"Who pushed you? Someone pushed me from behind!"
A group of people were making a racket and trying to start a fire, so many that they couldn't squeeze in.
Looking at the chaotic scene, Xu Xiangyang suddenly felt a headache coming on. However, everyone's enthusiasm was infectious, and he couldn't help but laugh.
Upon arriving at the staff canteen, Xu Xiangyang got his food and sat down in a chair.
Everyone else just kept their heads down and ate, ignoring everyone else.
What's with all this and that? A person who wants to do the work can't be distracted!
When Xu Xiangyang finished get off work in the afternoon, he took out a bag of zongzi (sticky rice dumplings). People in Northeast China still prefer jujube zongzi and like sweet ones.
He was no exception; these were all purchased during his time in the other dimension.
Regardless, the security personnel are on duty here, so they should be given a token of appreciation.
Everyone's eyes widened when they saw this bag of zongzi (sticky rice dumplings).
Sticky rice is hard to find, so we don't eat it anymore. Making dumplings is easier than using sticky rice.
"Director Xu, this won't do, you should take it back immediately." Section Chief Huang refused as soon as he saw the item.
You have to understand that these things are not easy to obtain; where would you find so many resources?
Xu Xiangyang waved his hand and said, "These are all my personal things, not public property. You can keep them for supper tonight."
In any case, the security department is a very important department now. It's truly good when everyone is doing well.
Section Chief Huang still didn't want to take it, saying, "This isn't about whose property it is."
Everyone else was eyeing the rice dumplings with great longing, but Section Chief Huang refused to take them!
Xu Xiangyang ignored him and turned to leave, saying, "Remember to eat it, it'll spoil by tomorrow morning."
After saying that, the man left.
Section Chief Huang was helpless, but he still let everyone share it.
Everyone else was happy, never expecting to get a midnight snack while on duty tonight.
I originally thought it would be nice to go home and spend time with my family at night, but now I think being on duty isn't so bad after all.
When Xu Xiangyang returned home, he was carrying a bag of zongzi (sticky rice dumplings). His family had made dumplings and four other dishes.
"We've been waiting for you, hurry up and eat." Wang Xiumin saw him return and immediately went to make dumplings.
If the dumplings are cooked in advance, they will clump together and not taste good if left for too long.
Xu Xiangyang washed his hands and then helped serve the dishes.
After dinner, I listened to the radio with my family, and then went back to sleep.
This kind of life is actually very good. When I'm not busy with work, I can often visit my family and spend time with them.
We also need to consider our work; all of this is for the future.
He woke up at 10 a.m. the next morning. He didn't have to go to work today and could rest for the day.
After tidying up and having lunch, I went to check out the black market.
Qian Wenqing also drank with everyone last night, so he got up very late.
Seeing Xu Xiangyang arrive, she mustered her spirits and poured him some water.
"No need, how much did you drink?" Xu Xiangyang frowned as he looked at him.
Qian Wenqing rubbed his temples. "It's only about a pound."
There was a hint of pride in his tone.
Xu Xiangyang was quite surprised, "Not bad, you used to only drink half a jin, right? Your alcohol tolerance has improved!"
"Hey!" Qian Wenqing said with an embarrassed smile, "Isn't it a holiday? By the way, Lin Min's household registration was processed yesterday."
I asked Master Wei to handle this before, and I didn't expect him to actually get it done.
Xu Xiangyang nodded, "With a household registration, Lin Min no longer needs to hide and run away, which is great."
As they were talking, Lin Min came in. "Boss Xu."
She had a smile on her face and was in a very good mood.
How could this be bad? After waiting for so long, I finally have a city household registration. I won't have to hide from the world anymore.
She was so excited after hearing the news last night that she couldn't sleep all night.
I woke up this morning feeling energetic and not sleepy at all.
"Okay." Xu Xiangyang looked at her and said, "Lin Min, you can stay here from now on. No matter what, you can definitely take care of your meals, don't worry about that."
Of course she was relieved. After spending so much time together, she knew very well that Xu Xiangyang was a good person.
And with Qian Wenqing there, she didn't want to leave anymore and wanted to stay there forever.
Xu Xiangyang noticed that her eyes kept glancing at Qian Wenqing, and he knew what was going on.
However, Qian Wenqing didn't realize anything, so it seems like this is unrequited love?
He didn't intend to get involved in their affairs. As long as they were happy, that was enough. It was a mutual consent between them.
"How have you been these past few days?" he asked Qian Wenqing.
Qian Wenqing asked Lin Min to go out and tidy up the warehouse, then said, "It's alright, I'm selling more goods by myself than before. And people in the city center aren't short of money, they'll take anything as long as the goods are good."
That's why people say the city center is a prime piece of meat; everyone wants a bite.
Xu Xiangyang smiled and nodded. "As long as it sells well, that's fine. Money is no object."
Suddenly he remembered something and asked, "By the way, has anyone been causing trouble lately?"
He emptied Mr. Kong's basement before; I wonder if he's still thinking about causing trouble.
Qian Wenqing thought for a moment and then said hesitantly, "There are often troublesome things, but they are all minor troubles and not a problem."
This kind of thing happens all the time on the black market, so it's not a big deal.
Xu Xiangyang understood and didn't ask any more questions.
He went to another place to restock the warehouse and did not return to Qian Wenqing's place.
They found a secluded spot, changed their clothes, and reappeared on the street.
He has enough time today; he wants to see how things go before making a decision.
Old Wei had previously harbored thoughts of causing trouble, but those thoughts were ultimately nipped in the bud. He wanted to see if this man still had such intentions.
Another one is the Zhang brothers. Is there any intention for these two groups to cooperate? It's unclear.
In fact, after dealing with Master An and Master Jiang, his threat level was reduced by more than half.
At least now, Old Wei and the Zhang brothers would have to think twice before making a move against him, otherwise, if they make a scene and things fall apart, they won't be able to do business with him anymore.
Xu Xiangyang didn't care, but it all depended on whether they cared or not.
