How much do you want?
“One hundred and twenty-five jin,” Li Shuxian replied.
To avoid trouble, he took all the milk tickets.
Duan Qiming stroked his chin: "That's a bit much. We don't produce milk here, and even the milk powder we get is limited. The warehouse has a maximum of fifty kilograms, and we can't give it all to you."
"Brother Duan, how many do the other supply and marketing cooperatives have?"
Shen Heng asked.
"It should be less than mine, no more. This supply and marketing cooperative is already one of the larger ones in the county."
Duan Qiming was quite helpless; he couldn't conjure up something out of thin air if it didn't exist.
There's a shortage of supplies right now. We finally managed to get milk coupons after a lot of trouble, but now we're stuck because there's no stock.
"Take twenty jin first, then try your luck at other supply and marketing cooperatives. I doubt they'll let you buy it all."
Duan Qiming could only do his best to give Shen Heng some things to take away.
Li Shuxian paid the money, holding over 100 jin of milk coupons, and stood worriedly at the entrance of the supply and marketing cooperative.
"Let's go and see how much we can get from other supply and marketing cooperatives."
Shen Heng was much calmer than Li Shuxian, and he pulled Li Shuxian away.
"How many supply and marketing cooperatives are there in the county town?" Li Shuxian asked.
"Three."
Li Shuxian was even more dumbfounded when he heard this: "Then at most you can only get sixty catties, right? You haven't even brought back half of it."
Shen Heng snorted and said, "You're overthinking it. These twenty catties are a gift from my elder brother out of consideration for our relationship. If you bought this much from other supply and marketing cooperatives, they would ask you if you were trying to speculate."
"ah?"
Li Shuxian was actually unaware of this.
He doesn't usually handle money, and his mother buys things for him.
"How many should one of our supply and marketing cooperatives need?"
"Ten catties."
Seeing Li Shuxian's wretched state, Chen Heng said, "If all else fails, I'll ask someone to inquire in the black market to see if there are any families raising goats who can spare some milk for you."
"Will this work? I'll feel so embarrassed, brother-in-law."
Shen Heng said directly, "I'm not doing this for you guys, I just don't want Jiao Jiao to worry about you."
The way Li Shuxian looked at Shen Heng was different now.
Bai Shiqing didn't tell Bai Shibo everything because she felt ashamed, but he knew that Shen Heng had given Bai Shibo a chance to join the army.
This time, they're so concerned about their family's affairs because of Bai Jiaojiao.
Li Shuxian felt somewhat ashamed in front of Shen Heng, feeling that he was not capable enough to give Bai Shiqing these things.
