Siheyuan: At the beginning, you can absorb good luck to stay alive.

Because there were guests, the breakfast was quite sumptuous.

The porridge is cooked with rice, nothing else is added.

Mother Mei also fried two meat dishes, a plate of twice-cooked pork and a plate of stir-fried beef.

"It seems that we are very lucky today. In the whole yard, your family is the only one who can eat meat in the morning!" the first man said with emotion.

His monthly salary is not low. He and his aunt live a life together, and they can still eat a few meals of meat every month.

But I don't dare to start eating meat in the morning like Mei Wenhua and his family.

When I occasionally make steamed buns, making a meal of white meat pork will improve my life.

"First Master, aren't you and Second Master coming here? I'll treat you with all the meat we eat during the New Year." Mei's mother said with a smile.

"In normal times, our family occasionally eats meat dishes. This is the first time we have meat in the morning!"

"Based on your family's conditions, even eating meat every day is enough. Now that Comrade Mei Jian'an is back, your family has the salary of three people, and you can't finish the meat even if you eat three meals a day!" Yan Bugui held a large bag between his hands. Put the chopstick meat into your mouth.

He wants to eat more meat!

Eat more and nod more to make up for his envy.

In the whole yard, there are only three people who can receive wages, and only Mei Wenhua and his family are the ones.

From now on, the Mei family will have a better life than anyone else!

If I had known earlier, I would have established a good relationship with the Mei family.

Who would have thought that the Mei family, which a few years ago was still in debt and had not enough to eat, has now become the richest family in the courtyard.

These are three people getting paid!

"Hey, second uncle, you don't know that most of Hua'er's father's salary was sent to his comrades' homes and he didn't take it home. It makes me mad to death!" Mei's mother complained.

Thinking of this, Mei's mother wanted to teach Mei's father a lesson.

Life at home was very difficult, the debt owed was in arrears, and there was not enough food to eat.

I didn’t expect that this guy wouldn’t send it home after receiving his salary!

If it weren't for my precious son, who was able to earn wages to support the family at such a young age, I really don't know if he would have been able to survive until now.

"I thought your salary alone was enough to support the family. I didn't consider everything. It was my fault. I promise I won't do it again in the future!" Mei's father immediately promised.

Last night, he tried his best to improve his relationship with Mei's mother. He couldn't let the two of them get into trouble again because of this matter.

"Comrade Mei Jian'an, Comrade Yang Mei's life has been really hard in the past few years. It is right for you to take more care of your family in the future." The first man nodded.

Long Weidong and Zhang Heping heard that their leader, Comrade Mei Jianan, had previously sent all his wages to his comrades.

Both of them looked at Comrade Mei Jian'an with admiration and awe.

They were aware of the situation in the army, and many comrades sent their wages to the families of their fallen comrades.

This is an important way for them to help their fallen comrades.

Being able to send wages to the homes of comrades-in-arms is a leader whose character is worthy of their admiration. With such a leader, you can rest assured to follow him.

I won’t treat them badly in the future.

"Yes, you are right. I will make it up to them in the future. Everyone should try the stir-fried beef. I think it tastes great!"

"It smells delicious. Let me try it!" The second uncle Yan Bugui took a large chopstick and stuffed it into his mouth.

"Hmm...it's really delicious!"

Long Weidong and Zhang Heping ate very quickly and basically didn't speak.

Maybe it's a habit developed in the army.

The first uncle Yi Zhonghai and Mei's father chatted happily, and the second uncle Yan Bugui ate so deliciously that he never stopped talking.

Mei Wenhua, Mei's mother and sister Mei Lan listened to their chat while eating.

After almost eating, the first uncle Yi Zhonghai finally told them the purpose of coming.

"Jian'an, the second uncle and I came here this morning. There is one more thing we want to discuss with you."

"Master, please tell me if you have anything to do. Why do you want to see me outside?"

"It's like this. After this period of hard work, every air-raid shelter in our yard has been basically dug. If it's not dug well, it can be completed quickly after the New Year." The first man put down his chopsticks.

"The slogan above is "Dig deep holes and store grains widely, don't seek hegemony." The next step is to stockpile grains in air-raid shelters."

"As long as everyone works hard to dig air-raid shelters, we can still find some way, but when it comes to accumulating grain, it's a bit difficult, so we came to you to discuss and see if there is any way?" the second uncle Yan Bugui added.

"First Master, Second Master, you should have a preliminary plan, right?" Comrade Mei Jian'an asked seriously.

"Dig deep holes, accumulate food widely and don't seek hegemony" is to deal with the threat of the furry bear country.

This was a decision from above, and he knew it.

The same thing is being done in the army.

Digging a hole is indeed easy. As long as people put in the effort, it can be completed sooner or later.

It is not easy to hoard food, and the logistics department of the army is worried.

Grain production has increased every year in recent years, but it is only enough to provide basic food and clothing. There are even many people who do not starve to death because they eat whole grains.

As soon as the above policies were implemented, many units began to hoard food.

Food was stored in air-raid shelters, and people had less food to eat.

Although food prices are controlled from above, food prices on the black market have been increasing.

Cheap grain is hard to buy in the market and is robbed as soon as it is released.

The prices of food stamps are much higher than before.

"At the beginning, we planned to let each family hoard food. Anyway, the food hoarded belongs to the family, and others cannot take it randomly." The first man began to talk about his previous plan.

“The problem now is that it’s good to be able to buy enough food in the market, but you can’t buy too much food for hoarding!”

"If we ask everyone to buy and hoard food by themselves, we will have to eat less every day and squeeze out a little to stock up. This is not realistic." The second uncle, Yan Bugui, frowned.

"Yes, if you are hungry, whoever wants to hoard food must fill your stomach first!" Comrade Mei Jian'an nodded in agreement.

He also has no good way.

"To be honest, not only are you worried about this matter, our troops are also worried about it. The logistics comrades are busy with procurement every day!"

The first uncle Yi Zhonghai and the second uncle Yan Bugui felt a little disappointed when they heard Mei Jianan's words.

They thought that since Mei Jian'an became a high-ranking official in the army, it would be convenient for him to purchase food, but they didn't expect that there was nothing they could do.

"Jian'an, there aren't many people in our yard, and we don't need much food. Can you please help us? We don't have to pay. We just need to help find channels where we can buy food."

"Master, I'll ask someone first to see if there's any way, but I can't guarantee it!" Mei Jian'an didn't refuse, and he didn't guarantee that he could help.

Just like Yi Zhonghai said, there are not many people in the courtyard and the food requirements are not high, so we can still find a way.

"That's all we can do now, and we'll think of a solution later."
