"What's going on? It's sold out so quickly?"
“We haven’t bought it yet!”
"I've been waiting in line for two hours!"
"You've only been waiting in line for two hours! I've been waiting in line for half a day!"
Su Nian and the others ran over and found that the pork had been sold out.
It's not even noon yet, and the meat is gone in just three or two hours!
It’s okay for those who line up from three or four in the morning, as they can buy it. But if you come after five, you can basically only buy some pig offal!
There are only so many pig offal. If you come after six o'clock, you can just look at them. The pig tails are gone!
This time, those who had been queuing up were not happy with this and started to make a fuss.
"We've been waiting in line for so long and we can't even buy meat! They're kidding us!"
"That's right! How could this be possible!"
"No, we want to eat meat! We need to buy meat!"
"Yes! We want to eat meat!"
For a moment, the crowd was in chaos, and everyone was noisily rushing into the supply and marketing cooperative.
"What are you doing! What are you doing! What are you all doing? Are you trying to cause trouble?" Seeing this, the male comrade who was maintaining order ran over shouting.
"We're not making trouble, we just want to eat meat!"
"Yes! We want to buy meat!"
The leading men had their hands in their pockets, shivering with cold, but were still shouting loudly for buying meat.
"I told you the meat is all sold out!" The man was so anxious that he was sweating and his voice was a little distorted.
Look at these people, they are not serious people. If they break in and cause trouble, will the supply and marketing cooperative be in good shape?
"We don't believe it. It's only been a short time since we last saw the meat and it's already sold out. Did your supply and marketing cooperative withhold some of it?"
"That's right! You guys are keeping it for yourselves to buy internally, right?"
"Let's go in and see for ourselves!"
"Yes! Let's go in and search!"
The men who took the lead used the logic of bandits, which made the comrades who were maintaining order very angry.
Unfortunately, I am alone and powerless, and there is nothing I can do.
At this time, Director Huang came out from inside. She stood on the steps at the entrance of the supply and marketing cooperative, looking at the men who wanted to break in with a serious face.
"What do you want to do? Want to break into the supply and marketing cooperative and steal things? Are you robbers?" Director Huang asked with a sharp look and a cold tone.
You know what, Director Huang's words really stunned those people.
"Are you the head of the supply and marketing cooperative? We're not going to steal anything, we're just going to see if there's any pork left!"
"No! If you have it, why would you hide it? If you want to hide it, why would I go to the trouble of applying? Why should I release it? If I don't release it, where are you going to find pork?" Director Huang looked at these people coldly and asked angrily.
I really didn't expect that someone would mean well but end up with bad results and cause trouble for the supply and marketing cooperative. Director Huang felt very upset.
"You say it's gone? We don't believe it! We have to see it with our own eyes!"
"That's right! We can't believe it until we see it!"
"Let us go in and take a look! We are not doing anything else!"
The people in front were wearing tattered leather jackets that hadn't been washed in several years.
My brother always has a greasy face, and his yellow front teeth when he smiles make people feel sick and want to vomit. He doesn’t look like a good person.
Especially the greed in the eyes makes people feel uncomfortable.
"You want to buy pork? Stop making a fuss! I don't want it anymore. I'll return it to the supply and marketing cooperative and give it to you! It's still 78 cents, no ticket required!" At this time, Captain Chen squeezed in from the crowd, holding a pound of pork and said to the man who was making the most noise in the front.
“…” For a moment, the man was silent.
He looked down at the pork and couldn't help licking his cracked lips, his eyes full of desire.
Then he looked up at Captain Chen, looking as if he didn't know what to do.
"Leader! I don't want the meat anymore! Return it! Give it to them!" Captain Chen said, winking at Director Huang.
Director Huang nodded and said to the salesperson standing at the door, who was watching the excitement with fear, "Xiao Yun, return the meat for this comrade!"
"Okay! I'll get the money right away!" The salesperson named Xiaoyun said, then retracted her head and ran to the counter to get the money.
"Let's give up ours too! Give it to them!" Su Nian turned around and said to Qin Yuxian and the others.
"I'll get it!" Qin Yulin turned around and walked out without waiting for Qin Yuxian and the others to speak.
"No need to go back and get it! I'll give it to them here!"
"And mine! What's the big deal? It's just a few bites of meat."
"That's right! Give up mine too!" As they said that, four or five people returned the meat and gave it up.
"Enough! Five servings are enough! You five made the most noise and wanted to eat meat the most, right? Five comrades here have stepped aside and given up their space. Now, you can come and buy it!" Director Huang said, pointing to the meat in the hands of the comrades who were maintaining order.
The salesperson named Xiaoyun returned the money to the people who returned the meat one by one and stood by and watched.
The development of the situation was unexpected for those people, and caught them off guard.
They huddled there with their hands in their pockets, hunched over, and looked at the meat in the comrade's hand with envy, but they refused to spend money to buy it.
"Any other questions?" Director Huang asked those people with puzzled eyes.
…
There was still silence. Those people looked at each other, staring at each other with wide eyes.
"You don't have any money to buy it, do you?" Someone in the crowd said this, and everyone suddenly realized what was going on.
"You don't have money to buy meat?"
"Are you going to buy it or not?"
