Chapter 312: The quality of your meat is not good
After returning to the city, Jiang Yu went to find Lai Liuzi first.
Lai Liuzi was surprised and said, "Sister-in-law, how come you have time to find me at this time?"
Jiang Yu briefly said a few words about his suspension. This
made Lai Liuzi swear.
"How much have you contributed to the factory? Isn't this just killing you?"
Jiang Yu waved his hands, "It's not just me, many people have been suspended, Cai Xiaole is the same."
"What? She was also suspended?" Lai Liuzi screamed.
Jiang Yu looked at him strangely, a little excited.
"I went to see her, she's fine."
Lai Liuzi said, "Sister-in-law, are you here for something today?"
"Yes, Ah Ye has raised a lot of rabbits and chickens in the countryside. Go to Nanhe Village to find He Xing. She knows where they are. Collect them and send them directly to the canteen."
Lai Liuzi exclaimed: "I said Ah Ye must be someone who will do great things. This guy is really brave!"
When he and Tie Niu were still hesitant, Jiang Ye actually walked ahead of them and did great things quietly.
"Sister-in-law, don't worry. I'll go collect the rabbits tomorrow."
After explaining these things, Jiang Yu left.
Back at the compound, Xu Lihua's place was very lively.
Jiang Yu saw her holding a notebook as if registering something, and walked over curiously.
"Feiyan, what are you doing?"
He Feiyan said, "It is said that Zhang Jiahua can get beef, and everyone asked Aunt Xu to buy it. Does my family want it?"
"Beef? Okay, take less, the meat will go bad easily."
It is not winter now, and the meat must be eaten on the same day, otherwise it will not be kept.
He Feiyan: "We can make beef jerky!"
Jiang Yu thought about it and thought it was feasible, so he asked Xu Lihua to buy ten kilograms.
Xu Lihua glared at her, "Can you finish it?"
"If you can't finish it, make it into beef jerky, it won't go bad." Jiang Yu smiled.
Xu Lihua sighed, "Ordinary people can't even afford a bowl of beef, but you can even eat beef jerky."
Jiang Yu ignored her sour remarks and asked, "Aunt Xu, is ten pounds not enough?"
Xu Lihua said, "Of course it is enough. Jiahua said that his friend can leave him half a cow, and it will be sent from the country tomorrow."
"Okay, I'll give you the money first."
Jiang Yu was about to take out the money, but was interrupted by Xu Lihua, "No need, I'll give it to you tomorrow when the beef arrives. But are you sure you want ten pounds? You and Xiaohe don't have any salary now, so you have to save money."
"Unlike my family, Jiahua and Lin Rui both have salaries, so even if we eat meat every day, we can still afford it."
Jiang Yu: "... It's okay, just ten kilograms. By the way, Liuzi will bring back some rabbits tomorrow, do you want them?"
Xu Lihua shook her head, "I already have beef, who wants to eat rabbits? You can keep them for yourself, I don't want them."
Now that the grandson's mother thought about the shadows of rabbits, she didn't want to eat rabbit meat in the short term.
Jiang Li bought one from her, she really liked rabbit meat.
The others didn't want it, and Jiang Yu didn't force it, anyway, she could eat more than what was in the cafeteria.
Unexpectedly, the next day, Lai Liuzi not only brought back the rabbits from Jiang Ye, but also brought back several hundred kilograms of beef.
"Why did you bring back so much? It's hot now, and the meat can't be kept."
Jiang Yu thought, if he had known, he wouldn't have gone to Xu Lihua to buy beef.
Lai Liuzi said, "It was just a coincidence. I met a fellow villager who was killing a cow on the road. He said he wanted to use the beef to buy a job for his son. Do you think he was stupid? He must have been fooled. He wanted to give half of the beef to curry favor with others. In the end, the meat went into the other person's stomach, and the job might not be done well. Isn't it a waste of effort? I said it would be better to exchange the beef for money to buy a job in the future, and he sold all the beef to me."
Jiang Yu raised her eyebrows without comment. Why did she feel that it sounded a little familiar, but she didn't think much about it.
The second factory is so big, there is no shortage of meat.
Unexpectedly, Lai Liuzi came to the back door of the second factory with a familiar route, but saw a stranger.
"Comrade, why didn't Comrade Xiao Liu come over?"
The man said in a cold tone: "I will be your liaison from now on. My last name is Fang."
Lai Liuzi smiled, "Comrade Fang, I brought some rabbits and beef this time. Still at the same price as before?"
Xiao Fang's eyes lit up slightly, "Beef? Let me see."
Lai Liuzi lifted the oilcloth covering it and showed the beef.
Xiao Fang was obviously hungry, but pretended to be disgusted.
"The quality of your meat is not good. You can't reduce the price by 30 cents per catty according to the previous price."
Lai Liuzi's smile froze, "These are all freshly killed cattle. How can the meat be bad? They are raised by the villagers. When I brought the meat back, it was still jumping."
The quality of the fresh beef was absolutely impeccable. He was not stupid, so he naturally knew that Xiao Fang was deliberately making things difficult.
If Xiao Fang was given some benefits after selling the meat, he would not refuse.
But he would never give up a profit of 30 cents per pound.
"Comrade Fang, I get more than this price from my fellow villagers. You can't let me make a trip in vain."
Xiao Fang said arrogantly: "If you don't want to sell it to our canteen, then go ahead. We don't have to buy your meat."
This is not the first time he has been a buyer. If he doesn't make some money from such a large batch of meat, he will be unworthy of his job.
Lai Liuzi was not scared, and he immediately took the beef and rabbit away.
"Okay, it seems that this business can't be done. Comrade Fang, see you later."
Xiao Fang was sure that he would come back again, so he was fearless.
If he didn't sell the meat to the second factory, who else would he sell it to.
Lai Liuzi left angrily and came to find Jiang Yu to tell her the story.
The current factory is no longer the same, so it is normal to have personnel changes.
Jiang Yu pondered for a moment, "Xiao Liu is probably transferred to another position, so we won't sell to the second factory. It will be more laborious to sell it in bulk like you did before."
People are short of meat now, so it is not that difficult to sell the meat.
"Sister-in-law, do you want to ask the neighbors in your compound and give them priority?"
Jiang Yu shook his head, "No, I asked yesterday."
Everyone bought beef from Xu Lihua, so she didn't bother asking too much, so as to avoid being disliked by others.
After discussing with Lai Liuzi, Jiang Yu and He Tingyue started to act.
First, they called Master Li to help cut the meat, and He Feiyan and the two children helped by the side, while they went out to promote beef and rabbits.
After running around for a whole morning, most of the things were sold.
Lai Liuzi planned to keep the rest for himself.
"Sister-in-law, I'll leave you ten pounds. Remember to take it back later."
Jiang Yu wanted to refuse, but Lai Liuzi threw a few pounds to her and laughed.
"Sister-in-law, Feiyan said you can make beef jerky. Can you help me make some?"
Jiang Yu said angrily, "Why are you being so polite to me? Just say a word and I'll make you as much as you want."
After Lai Liuzi said that, she felt embarrassed to refuse again and accepted the beef.
When her family returned home with the meat, they immediately attracted everyone's attention.
Jiang Yu couldn't help but shrink her hand. She knew that she was carrying a lot of meat, but the way they looked at her was too passionate.
"Aunt Xu, what's wrong?"
Without waiting for Xu Lihua to speak, grandma asked impatiently, "Jiang Yu, where did you get this meat?"
Jiang Yu looked puzzled, "I bought it."
Grandma asked again, "Do you have any more? Sell me two catties... No, half a catty will do!"
Jiang Yu was even more puzzled, "Didn't we order beef from Aunt Xu?"
Grandma couldn't help rolling her eyes, "Don't say it, Old Xu is exaggerating. Jiahua can't get any beef at all, so he let us go!"
Xu Lihua was embarrassed, "Jiahua said everything to me, how could I know he would go back on his word. I didn't mean to do it, why are you blaming me?"
It's also the fault of that untrustworthy fellow villager, isn't this cheating!
Grandmother Sun spat, "Who else should I blame if not you? If you hadn't said there was beef, I would have bought a rabbit from Jiang Yu. Now, there's no beef, and I can't even eat a rabbit!"
Xu Lihua's face became uglier. If she had known, she would have bought a rabbit from Jiang Yu.
Jiang Yu suddenly realized that it was the beef from Xu Lihua that was gone.
"Auntie Ruan, I'm not selling this beef. I plan to keep it to make beef jerky."
Fortunately, Lai Liuzi left her ten kilograms, otherwise she wouldn't be able to eat it at home.
