"Oh! There are women!" Shanzi felt embarrassed by being laughed at after he finished speaking, and said casually with some bashfulness.
"Bring your sisters here to grab a few pounds of meat, so you can have some money for the New Year!" Qin Yulin's voice was cold and he always spoke in the same tone.
"Hey! Then you've come here in vain. Now the rules have changed! Each family can only buy one kilogram, and you need to show your household registration certificate. The whole family cannot come to buy! We have to ensure that everyone can eat pork!!" Shanzi said with a smile.
"It's impossible for every store to buy it! How many pounds does a pig weigh?"
"There are two pigs in total, and each pig weighs about 150 to 160 kilograms!"
Qin Yulin chatted with the two men from time to time and got a lot of information from them.
The director of the supply and marketing cooperative applied for this pork that does not require a ticket from the county, just so that the people can eat meat without a ticket.
You can only buy one kilogram of it with a household registration certificate, not by the number of people!
Su Nian and the others all felt their bags and found their household registration certificates inside.
Their household registrations were transferred to the rural areas, and after arriving, they were issued new household registration books.
As time went by, more and more people appeared on the street, slowly gathering here.
Su Nian and the others stopped chatting lazily and started lining up formally at the entrance of the supply and marketing cooperative.
Those who arrived later also started to line up consciously.
Su Nian estimated the time. They had been out for about an hour at most, and it was around three o'clock now.
In this way, the entrance of the supply and marketing cooperative gradually became lively and the line became longer and longer.
"Niannian! Fortunately we came early! My God, people are so crazy!" Sun Yanyan looked back at the team that was occasionally illuminated by a flashlight, and said in surprise.
"This is nothing! There are even crazier things!" Su Nian also turned around and looked at the crowded team and said calmly.
I hope you can buy pork smoothly, and don’t cause any trouble by fighting over it.
At dawn, the entrance of the supply and marketing cooperative was so lively that it was packed with people.
Not only people from Mengyuan Commune are here, I'm afraid people from other communes are here as well.
The streets are completely empty just to eat a piece of meat! How can this be enough to share?
"Oh my God! They're all crazy!" Qin Yuxian was also extremely excited, with an expression of disbelief on her face.
When it was daybreak, Su Nian and the others were finally able to see people's faces, and each of them had a lively smile on their face.
Of course, this is for those in the front of the line. Those in the back stretched their necks and counted the number of people in front of them with worried faces, fearing that they would not be able to buy it.
Most of the people queuing up were men, women, young and old, wearing patched cotton-padded jackets. Some girls were even wearing trousers with their trouser legs hanging loose. Maybe they were even wearing adult clothes.
The visual impact was too great. Su Nian felt that it was too difficult for people to eat a bite of pork.
"Daqing! Are you here? Mom asked us to come look for you!"
At this time, a woman wearing a gray cotton coat and trousers and a long woolen scarf came over with three or four other women and said to Daqing.
"Sister! Why are you here!" Daqing said to the woman.
"Come and buy meat!" the woman said with a smile.
"Qingzi! Thank you for saving a seat for us!" one of the women said with a smile.
As he said this, he was about to stand in the line.
"Hey! Why are you cutting in line?" Su Nian said when he saw the woman moving her butt to squeeze in front of him.
"Girl, we have someone occupying our seat! How can you call that queue-cutting?" The woman said to Su Nian with a stern face when she saw that she couldn't squeeze in.
"Your people? Who are your people? Isn't it stipulated that a family can only buy one kilogram based on their household registration?"
"He's one of ours!"
"One person from your family is enough to stand in line!"
"We are not a family!"
"Why are you cutting in line if we're not family!" Su Nian said with a cold face.
"That's right! You cut in line! What should we do?"
“No queue-jumping!”
"Go line up at the back!"
At this time, the people at the back of the line heard someone trying to cut in line and started making a fuss.
Su Nian would not tolerate their bad habits. It was obvious that these women came late and accidentally saw this man named Daqing queuing up.
"Girl! This is my brother! We let him take up our place!" The woman who had just spoken came over and pointed at Daqing and said to Su Nian.
"If everyone does what you do, and you say that everyone is your relative, then we who came early will have to give way to your family?" Sun Yanyan was so angry that she argued with the other party.
"That's right! Are you being reasonable? With so many people cutting in line, do you have any shame?"
"If you don't get in line, I'm going to teach you a lesson!"
I saw that some of the people behind me were getting angry.
"We have people in line! Why should we queue at the back?"
"There's a queue. Are you in the queue? Does it have anything to do with you?"
"What do you mean there's a queue? It wasn't you who arranged this. I noticed it when you first arrived, all of you clamoring about how crowded it was and how late you were! Then, when you saw someone you knew ahead of you, you said you wanted to cut in line!"
Said one of the people who noticed them from the beginning.
"Exactly, I saw it too! No cutting in line!"
“Get in line!”
People were shouting angrily.
Daqing saw that things were getting out of control and he felt a little overwhelmed.
"Sister! You'd better go and line up!" Daqing said with a cold face.
"Daqing! You are so heartless! Go away, I will queue up! Your brother-in-law wants to eat meat! You must buy it today!" The woman with short hair reached out and pulled Daqing's sleeve, saying with a cold face.
