Ye Zhiqiu's words made the three of them brighten up. This was indeed feasible! It was better for the three of them to make a profit from the price difference than to see the money to be made but not dare to earn it!
Now that the three villages have been merged into one commune, the three of them are very familiar with the information, so they began to discuss in a low voice.
Ye Tianya and Qian Dafu on the side were very anxious because they were completely confused and had no idea what Ye Zhiqiu and the others were talking about.
Ye Zhiqiu whispered soothingly, "This matter is of top priority to both of our families. After dinner, I will explain it to you in detail along with my mother."
When the two heard Ye Zhiqiu's serious words, even though they were very curious, they had to force themselves to calm down and not disturb Ye Zhiqiu and the three people who were talking.
The three of them discussed for a long time before finally finding a suitable and reliable candidate.
Yang Gui said to Ye Zhiqiu, "Purchasing Manager Ye, we've taken this job! Tomorrow, after we finish your mother's application, we'll go talk to someone in Baijiazhuang about this. We're 70% sure we can get it done."
Ye Zhiqiu smiled and said, "Then I'll leave it to you three! After the task is completed, I'll pay you all the hard work fees! I'll also treat you all to meat and wine, thank you for your hard work!"
Secretary Wang said happily, "Hey, everyone gets what they need. We're all family, so there's no need for polite words!"
Ye Zhiqiu nodded and said, "That kid said the wrong thing!" Then he said to Ye Tianya and the others, "Dad, go see if the peanuts are fried. If they are, bring them over first. Let's drink slowly with Secretary Wang first."
"Okay, I'll go to the kitchen and take a look!"
Ye Zhiqiu didn't treat Qian Dafu as an outsider and said to him directly: "Uncle Qian, go and help get the bowls, chopsticks and wine glasses. We can eat this dish later. You and my dad will be there, and you should toast the secretary and the others with a glass of wine. They have to run around for you, thank you for the hard work."
Qian Dafu nodded and said, "It's time to toast. I'll go get the wine glasses."
After the two of them got busy, Ye Zhiqiu explained to the three, "Well, this matter hasn't been completed yet, so I didn't tell them! That's why they are so stupid and can't understand a word we say."
Accountant Zhao gave a thumbs-up and praised, "Xiao Ye is so steady and prudent. He didn't even tell his family a word before the success! With such a steady mind, you'll definitely make a name for yourself in anything you do!"
"That's right, although Xiaoye is young, his steadiness is enough to make others feel ashamed!"
Ye Zhiqiu said happily, "Come on, stop praising me! I'm just worried that this thing won't work out. That would be such a slap in the face! So I have to thank you for taking the trouble to help me solve this problem."
After chatting and laughing for a while, Ye Tianya and his friend returned with freshly fried peanuts, along with wine glasses, bowls, and chopsticks. The peanuts weren't as crispy because they weren't completely cooled, but they were still good enough to eat with wine.
Ye Zhiqiu opened two bottles of Erguotou and started pouring wine. After drinking a glass together, they slowly started drinking.
After two bottles of wine were finished, Liu Cuihua brought in a pot of pork ribs, rabbit meat and potatoes stewed.
She said to them with a cheerful smile, "You guys go eat and drink first. The pork and vermicelli stew will take a while to be ready."
Ye Zhiqiu smiled and nodded, inviting Yang Gui and the others to eat. Having drunk quite a bit of wine on an empty stomach, everyone didn't hesitate and quickly picked up some food to wash down their wine.
Because the eight-person table at Ye Zhiqiu's house certainly couldn't seat so many people, Wang Xiaolan and the others left some food for them and ate in the kitchen. Ye Zhiqiu knew this, so he told everyone not to leave any food for them.
When the pork stewed with vermicelli was served, everyone picked up the pork and vermicelli and started eating them together.
Accountant Zhao took a big bite of vermicelli noodles and said with emotion, "This one really makes me miss it! I can't eat it many times a year!"
Ye Zhiqiu asked curiously, "Isn't that so? Shouldn't you be growing sweet potatoes too? Didn't the commune arrange for you to make vermicelli?"
Secretary Wang explained, "Xiaoye, you don't know. We plant everything according to our instructions. We planted sweet potatoes, but there weren't many. We couldn't even make vermicelli with them!"
In addition to growing grain, our land is primarily used to grow vegetables. Our Sanlitun Commune is a supplementary source of vegetables for the city."
So that's how it is. If Ye Zhiqiu hadn't told me, I really wouldn't have known! But it makes sense when I think about it. Food is easy to store and can be transported from outside by train.
However, there are not many vegetables that can be stored for a long time, so we have to rely on the supply from surrounding farms.
There was the vegetable basket project in later generations, and it is normal to have such plans and arrangements in this era.
Ye Zhiqiu asked Ye Tianya and Qian Dafu to toast a few people, and everyone drank the wine with laughter. This dinner made the three of them enjoy themselves to the fullest. The dishes were so delicious, and they could drink as much wine as they wanted!
So after they had eaten and drunk their fill, the three people who said goodbye and left the Ye family were all drunk and staggering as they walked.
Watching the three people leaving, Ye Zhiqiu felt that they were okay. Although they walked a little crookedly, they did not fall to the ground.
When he returned to the living room, Ye Tianya and the other two were also a little drunk. Because Ye Zhiqiu asked them to toast them, they also drank quite a lot.
Wang Xiaolan and Liu Cuihua had already given the three of them a bowl of honey water. Ye Zhiqiu didn't need it, so he shared his bowl with his two sisters.
After the two of them drank the honey water and became more sober, Ye Zhiqiu asked Qian Xiaofang to call Wang Xiaolan and the other person who were washing dishes over.
After everyone gathered, Ye Zhiqiu began to explain to them, "Today's dinner is because our family asked them for help and helped my mother with a big thing, so we are treating them like this.
And this matter also concerns Aunt Liu, so I asked Dad and Uncle Qian to toast them! It’s really because both of our families need to ask them for help! "
When Ye Tianya heard this, his drunken mind suddenly sobered up! Because he thought of something: his wife's big matter also involved his brother's wife Liu Cuihua, and both families needed help.
Without exception, they all revealed what kind of thing this was. There was only a household registration issue that matched what the son said.
So before the others could figure it out, Ye Tianya excitedly asked, "Son, has your mother's household registration been settled?"
Ye Zhiqiu hadn't answered yet. Wang Xiaolan and the others felt their heads buzzing when they heard Ye Tianya's words. It took them a while to wake up, and they immediately looked at Ye Zhiqiu!
Ye Zhiqiu nodded happily and said, "That's the problem! Whether it's our family or Uncle Qian's family, there are several people in the family. Without a household registration, we can't eat the city's rations.
That's why Uncle Qian had to use his money to buy high-priced grain, which made life so difficult. After much thought, I just felt that we needed to solve this problem in order for our two families to have a better life.
It's so hard to find a job. Each factory has a limit on the number of farmers who can convert to non-farm work each year. Last time, after I finished working on my fish pond, I mentioned this to them, and they actually figured out a way to exploit the loophole!
