Chapter 110 Sales Promotion
early morning.
Zhao Yi walked towards the department store happily.
It's another day to collect wages, and everyone's faces are full of smiles.
After receiving salary.
Zhao Yi returned to the repair shop.
Now there are only two or three home appliances that need repair every day, and occasionally one or two more, and they will be delivered by the transportation department in the afternoon.
In the morning, Zhao Yi leisurely read the newspaper, and then read the borrowed book.
Just opened the morning newspaper.
Section Chief Wang's smiling face appeared in front of Zhao Yi. Section Chief Wang took away Zhao Yi's newspaper. Zhao Yi was almost scared when he saw the smiling face up close.
"Master Zhao, it's been more than ten days. Could you please come and help me get two pounds of meat for our snack?"
Section Chief Wang was holding a bottle of wine, a pound of brown sugar and a pound of pastries.
These things cost about three yuan each. Zhao Yi didn't know what he was after. A pound of pork would only cost 90 cents at most on the black market.
Of course Section Chief Wang knew about the black market, but he just didn't dare to go there. He was the chief of the security department and knew more about this area than anyone else. If he was caught by the red armband, he would have no chance of staying in this position.
He was not afraid at all when sharing with Zhao Yi. Sometimes Zhao Yi would even give him an extra kilogram or two, and he always felt like he was getting a good deal.
"I'll ask for leave tomorrow and go back to ask. If there is any, I'll let you know as soon as possible. By the way, do you want to eat loach? It's cheap."
Zhao Yi looked at Section Chief Wang and asked, while also helping his father-in-law to promote loaches.
“Is it delicious?”
Section Chief Wang became interested and he liked everything that was edible.
There is a shortage of supplies nowadays, and there is little food, and even if there is, it is difficult to buy.
"Come to my house for lunch and you'll know."
Zhao Yi said with a smile.
"Okay, Master Zhao, if I didn't come I would have missed it, so we can't be partial to one and ignore the other."
Zhang Qian from the Finance Department looked at Zhao Yi and said angrily.
"How can we be sure that you have one?"
Zhao Yi said with a smile.
Zhang Qian and Zhang Jing got along pretty well in the department store. Every time Zhang Jing handed in a fake collar, she would go to Zhang Qian to collect the payment. As time went by, the two became quite familiar with each other.
In addition to the cans of milk powder that Director Li gave to Zhang Jing, Zhang Qian also gave Zhang Jing a few bags of domestic milk powder. The unborn little one received a lot of things, especially a milk bottle, which is considered a luxury for babies.
"Then I have to eat my money back."
Zhang Qian put the gift on Zhao Yi's desk and walked back to her office.
As soon as he got off work in the morning, Zhao Yi returned home with some gifts and started preparing meals.
In particular, the braised loach that Zhao Yi was going to treat everyone to today, he put all the five pounds of loach that Su Hong sent into the pot, and also made two plates of bacon and an egg drop soup.
Soon everyone arrived at Zhao Yi's house.
I smelled the fragrance before I even entered the door, and I swallowed unconsciously.
Not all the people from the department store came this time. After all, not everyone likes to eat meat every now and then, and these are all greedy people whose families are not short of money.
The drinkers sat at the same table with Zhao Yi. Zhao Yi opened the bottle of the good wine sent by Section Chief Wang and poured a small glass for each of them. They couldn't drink too much because they had to go to work in the afternoon.
Zhang Jing was at a table with a group of sales clerks, and Zhang Qian from the Finance Department.
"This is delicious, how did you make it?"
Section Chief Wang took just one bite and immediately burst into laughter, thinking it tasted much better than fatty meat.
"This was given to me by a friend. She's the only one who can do this. I heard she also supplies it to the supply and marketing cooperative near our East City. She sells it for 40 cents per pound."
When everyone heard this, they hurriedly picked up a piece of loach with chopsticks and tasted it carefully.
After taking a bite, everyone showed surprise on their faces. Section Chief Wang was not talking nonsense, the taste was amazing.
"This is good, and the price is not expensive. Master Zhao, can you help me get a few pounds so we can take it home and share it with our family?"
"No problem, I'll tell her when I get back."
Zhao Yi nodded.
The female colleagues all took out the lunch boxes they had brought with them, and each of them put one in the lunch box and took it back for their children to taste. However, they did not dare to take too much as everyone else had to eat.
After the meal, the female colleague felt quite satisfied. After saying goodbye to Zhang Jing quietly, she took the lunch box and went home.
The male colleagues were still a little unsatisfied. After all, guys tend to eat bigger meals. They finished a two-and-a-half-pound loach in just two chopsticks.
"Master Zhao, you have to think of me when you eat this. It doesn't matter if it's meaty or not, but you have to give me more."
Everyone looked at Zhao Yi and said.
"Okay, okay, I've got it all down. I'll tell everyone about this when I get home tomorrow. I won't forget about you greedy cats."
Zhao Yi smiled, then raised his glass and clinked it with everyone else's, then drank it all in one gulp.
After a small glass of wine, no one got drunk. They followed Zhao Yi to clean up the mess and walked back home, looking back every few steps.
There was still some bacon left on the table, but even the soup of the loach had been taken away.
In the afternoon, after Zhao Yi finished his work in the maintenance shop, he handed the key to Director Li.
"Sister, I'm going to go back tomorrow to deliver some things to my parents. The transportation department will definitely come to pick up the appliances, so I'd like to trouble you to help me."
After get off work, Zhao Yi came to Director Li’s office and said, then handed the key to Director Li.
"You go and do your thing. I'll take someone from the transportation department to pick up the repaired appliances."
Director Li nodded.
Zhao Yi then walked towards the staff housing the garment factory. Zhang Jing came here with Li Fang and the others as soon as she got off work.
"How do you feel about working at the Ministry of Transport?"
Zhao Yi looked at Li Chao and asked.
"It's OK. There is always work to do, so I feel at ease. The masters there are all good, and they don't deliberately make things difficult for me."
Li Chao said with a smile.
"That's good."
Zhao Yi nodded.
Everyone ate and talked, and even talked about Li Fang's lifelong event, but Zhang Jing and Zhao Yi didn't respond much to this topic.
early morning.
Zhao Yi took some gifts early and walked towards the bus station.
After returning to Shanyang County, he first went to his two aunts' homes. As it was not a festival, Zhao Yi did not prepare any expensive gifts, just some cigarettes and alcohol he had received. Except for the elderly at home, most of the people in his aunts' homes were either at work or at school, so Zhao Yi did not stay long.
Rushed directly back to Wangou Village.
At this time, everyone in Wangou Village had just got off work.
Li Daju was feeding the pigs in the pigsty. She had learned a lot of experience since she helped Zhao Yi raise pigs last year. If she could raise pigs as big as the two pigs Zhao Yi raised last year, she would make a lot of money.
"mom."
As soon as he entered the door, Zhao Yi saw Li Daju standing at the door of the pigpen.
"Big brother is back. Have you eaten yet? Mom will make it for you right away."
After Li Daju finished speaking, she didn't care whether Zhao Yi had eaten or not, and immediately went to the kitchen to start working.
Zhao Yi walked to the door of the pigpen and looked inside. The two chubby little piglets looked particularly adorable. It seemed that his mother had learned a lot last year. These two piglets would surely become two big fat pigs without any accidents.
"I bought a piglet, took a pig on a mission, and went to the commune to buy some bran."
After Li Daju finished cooking, she saw Zhao Yi standing at the door of the pigpen and explained.
