Chapter 179 TV Tickets
early morning.
Zhao Yi had just gotten up, and the two little ones had already gone out with Zhang Jing. Zhao Yi worked across the street so he got up late.
As soon as I got up, the gate was pushed open.
Zhao Laowu and his companions came in with meat on their backs, smiling, while Huang Li and Liu Qi's wife were carrying buckets of water.
If meat was not delivered on a certain day, Liu Qi and Zhao Laowu would carry fish, shrimps and loaches. Fish, shrimps and loaches were delivered almost every day.
"Brother Yi."
Seeing Zhao Yi walk out of the living room, several people shouted with laughter.
"Let me tell you something."
As soon as Zhao Yi opened his mouth, several people listened quietly and waited for what to say next.
"No need to be so serious."
Zhao Yi smiled and waved his hand.
"On June 8th, you have to send more. They have reserved 20 tables. We need 20 four or five jin of these fish. You can prepare a few more. Same with loach and shrimp. As for meat, get it if you can. If you can't, I have tickets to cover it."
Zhao Yi looked at everyone and said.
"Don't worry, Brother Yi. If they don't send the meat, we will drive our big fat pigs to the slaughterhouse and send half to you. We guarantee that it won't affect the restaurant's business."
Liu Qi looked at Zhao Yi and said.
What Zhao Yi wants for the restaurant he opens is word of mouth. Since he has promised something, he must do it. Otherwise, if the restaurant loses its credibility and business is bad, how can these people make money, and it is so easy to earn more than 60 yuan a month.
Both Zhao Laowu and Liu Qi's families raise pigs, and now each weighs more than 100 kilograms.
"No, we've only been raising pigs for seven months. If we wait until winter, they may grow to nearly 300 kilograms."
Zhao Yi smiled and waved his hand.
They slaughter pigs in winter. When they are ready to slaughter pigs, they buy two piglets in advance. When the piglets arrive home, they drive the big fat pigs to the slaughterhouse.
Hearing Liu Qi say this, Liu Qi's wife was not annoyed. She said that she had to focus on the restaurant, which was the way for the family to live a good life. As for the pigs, they were just extra income for the family.
"Brother Yi, Brother Liu and I are serious. If we can't get the meat, we will slaughter the pigs and send them over. Business is important."
Zhao Laowu also said.
Hunting is a game of chance. You can't just catch prey anytime you want. You have to be prepared for both situations. The pigs at home are not mission pigs, so they can be sent to the slaughterhouse even if they do not meet the standards.
"Just let it happen naturally."
Zhao Yi said with a smile.
"I understand, Brother Yi."
Several people were deeply moved, knowing that Zhao Yi was afraid that they would be at a disadvantage. When they raised the pigs and sent them to the slaughterhouse in winter, they would not only receive 30 kilograms of feed, but also rubber shoes and the thermos as a reward.
If you send it over now, you won’t be able to get these things except half of the meat.
"Okay, let's weigh the things first, and then have breakfast."
Zhao Yi smiled.
As for why Chen Yan was not given a share of the fish and shrimp, it was because there were no fields or rivers in Chenjia Village at all.
After breakfast, several people rushed to the supply and marketing cooperative with money.
Zhao Yi ignored them and handed the things to Zhang Xiang's repair shop and started working.
Not long after Zhao Yi started working, many workers came to the department store, and it was as lively as any other holiday.
There was nothing to do in the repair shop today, so Zhao Yi sat in the shop and read the newspaper.
In a blink of an eye, it was time for lunch and people started to leave work one after another.
"Sister Wang, what's going on today? Why are there so many customers?"
Zhao Yi saw Sister Wang coming to the restaurant to have lunch and asked, "Generally, when the department store is busy, the sales clerks will have lunch at Zhao Yi's restaurant, and then continue to work after lunch, and will be busy until the end of the day before going home."
"I don't know what happened, but a batch of televisions were distributed from the provincial capital, and many senior executives from many factories received tickets for televisions and came here to purchase televisions."
Sister Wang explained.
Zhao Yi recalled that several radio factories had started producing color televisions this year, so it was no wonder that there was suddenly a batch of 12-inch black-and-white televisions.
All the televisions were sold out in the morning, and there were only about twenty televisions delivered.
Television is still very popular nowadays, although there are not many TV programs, only two or three episodes a week, and most of the time they are some exciting war movies that have been shown in theaters.
But it still makes the TV very popular.
For example, before the TV is turned on at Zhao Yi's house in the evening, many people come to watch TV. Many times, the movies played are repeated, but it still can't stop their love for it.
In fact, the biggest reason is the single entertainment program.
If you don't come here to watch a movie, you can go to the square to exercise, listen to old men telling stories, watch children playing games in the square, or go boating in the shallow lake in the park.
No wonder he couldn't wait to come to the department store to buy a TV as soon as he got the TV ticket.
Not long after, Zhang Jing also came back.
"My garment factory, which is the boss, is issuing TV tickets."
Zhang Jing said happily.
"I sent it to you too?"
Zhao Yi smiled.
"No, I'm not a model worker, nor an advanced worker, so how could they give it to me?"
Zhang Jing smiled.
They, the ordinary employees, do not envy the advanced and model workers who receive awards, because their abilities are definitely not as good as theirs, so they were not selected.
These people are not selected just because the leader says you are the right one, but are chosen by voting throughout the factory.
Just like a warehouse keeper, there are so many things in the warehouse. Even if you just say which kind of screws you want, he can go directly to the shelf where the screws are placed and get them. He already knows every corner of the warehouse clearly in his mind.
Therefore, Zhang Jing does not envy or hate these people at all, because their abilities and deeds are admirable to her from the bottom of her heart.
As for the reason why Zhao Yi received the TV and plane tickets, no one in the department store said anything about it. Zhao Yi did not make any mistakes in the repair shop. He was able to repair all the home appliances sent to him and had never been complained about by anyone.
“In the future, there may be more and more TV tickets.”
Zhao Yi smiled.
"How is that possible? We can't produce that many of these things in a year."
Zhang Jing was a little unconvinced.
"There was only one TV factory before, but now there are many. There will definitely be more and more in the future."
Zhao Yi explained.
What's more, television sets nowadays are of good quality. Once you buy one, you won't buy a second one. So it is natural that the television sets produced must be sold, although there is no need to worry about sales issues now.
It is still in a stage where supply exceeds demand.
Zhang Jing thought about it and agreed. She already had one TV at home, so even if she received a TV ticket, she would not be able to buy a second one. Naturally, she would give the TV ticket to co-workers in need.
Zhang Jing saw that the restaurant was very busy, so she didn't continue chatting with Zhao Yi but walked into the restaurant and started helping.
Zhao Yi went to buy some bricks and prepared to build a temporary stove next to the wall of his house.
