Siheyuan: Stab at Louzi at the beginning

Chapter 838 Demand and Supply

"Team leader, where are you being transferred to now? You won't leave Sijiu City, right?"

"If nothing unexpected happens, I will never leave Sijiu City in this life."

Tao Zhuan added: "Where will I be transferred to?"

"There's nothing to hide about this. It's just a temporary department, temporarily responsible for overall planning and mainly responsible for logistics. Don't get involved in this temporary department. It's hard to say how long it can last."

This high-level temporary department.

The only problem Xu Damao could think of was the border issue.

It’s not a waste of time to break through the iron shoes.

If I had known that Team Leader Li was so close, there would have been no need to hint to Li Tianjiao. Li Tianjiao's father is still far from being Team Leader Li.

Wait, they both have the surname Li, so there shouldn’t be any connection, right?

It’s no wonder that Xu Damao was suspicious, but there are really too many such things. Brothers fight tigers together, and fathers and sons fight in battle.

If you carefully study the relationships between modern historical figures, you will find that although many people have different surnames, there are actually too many relatives, cousins, fellow villagers, and fellow townsmen.

Some even became enemies because of their different paths.

I wanted to give an example here, but then I thought about it and gave up. It’s not a good idea.

Since Li Tianjiao didn't say it, Xu Damao wouldn't take the initiative to ask.

It is not good to pry into other people's privacy, especially the privacy of your leader.

Xu Damao really wanted to talk to Team Leader Li about the border issue, but Team Leader Li said, "There's nothing that can't be discussed." In fact, he really didn't want to say anything and changed the subject calmly.

This made Xu Damao very uncomfortable.

It's really uncomfortable to have things stuck in your stomach and not be able to say them.

Every time there is a hint of trouble, the topic shifts to studies and finances.

This kind of thing really needs to be kept secret, especially for Xu Damao, a director in charge of raising chickens. There is absolutely no need for him to know such a secret matter.

He only discussed this with Li Tianjiao at home and would never say a word of this kind in public.

In fact, this is the circle. Most people at the top know about it, but people at the bottom don’t get any news at all.

Until lunch time, Xu Damao still hadn't found an opportunity.

"This is the last time I will eat in the company cafeteria. Today I will make an exception and eat the special meal. Damao, you are in for a treat today."

"The chef here is a top chef, and his specialty is Hubei cuisine. The organization took into consideration that I am from Hubei and specially arranged a chef for me. Unfortunately, I have only eaten a few times. In addition, I am used to Beijing cuisine now, and I am not used to those soupy dishes."

Hubei is rich in water, and its most famous specialty is of course aquatic products.

Eating fish can bring out the best in you.

“Diverse diets lead to more balanced nutrition.”

"It's mainly because I've seen droughts. I feel uncomfortable eating in my own kitchen, so eating from a big pot together makes me feel more comfortable. I'm making an exception today."

"Team leader, you have such a kind heart. It is a blessing."

"You should say less flattery. You can flatter so sincerely, which is a skill, but don't use it on me. I really want to send you to the northwest to plant trees."

"Then should I restrain myself a little?"

"Be more restrained."

It sounded like Team Leader Li was criticizing, but in fact, his smiling tone made it obvious that he was just chatting.

When the three people arrived at the private room, six dishes and one soup had already been served. It was obvious that they had been notified and prepared in advance.

The food was prepared on time and the guests arrived on time, it was very standard procedure.

To be honest, Xu Damao had never eaten such good food when he worked here before. He even thought there was no chef here.

"Braised fish, after all these years, it still tastes the same."

"Da Mao, you just said that now that you have finished reading those books, you can become a professor at Capital University. Then I have a question for you. We are relatively poor now. Why can't we make everyone rich together by printing money?"

Xu Damao:......

Do you think he is a primary school student? Even a primary school student can answer this question.

"What is money? In a society where 'the world is for all, the so-called great harmony', there is no need for money. We have everything we need, so what is the point of money? Money is useless. Only 'capital' needs to rely on paper to control units and everyone."

Team Leader Li shook his head: "This is not the answer I want."

If a unit no longer needs to be measured by "money" to measure its value, it would truly be an ideal utopia.

Team leader Li is not satisfied with this answer, which means that he is pessimistic about such a "utopian" society, or he thinks it is extremely difficult to achieve.

"'Money' is essentially a kind of 'token', which is essentially no different from the 'food stamps' we use now. The value of money is realized when it is endorsed by a unit and can be used to buy materials and trade. If you say that poverty can be eliminated by 'printing money', it is as ridiculous as saying that ignorance can be eliminated by 'giving everyone a diploma from Capital University'."

"The normal operation of society depends on 'demand' and 'supply'. If demand is greater than supply, money will be more valuable. If supply is greater than demand, money will depreciate. Printing money will only lead to tight supply and thus price increases. Moreover, if we take our money to other places, it is not certain whether they will recognize it."

"For people to recognize our money, the premise is that we can guarantee that they can use our money to buy what they want. This requires us to be stable as a whole and not let the money become waste paper. Even if we have achieved these goals, whether people recognize it or not depends on their attitude."

Why can a loaf of bread be sold for half a million? The fundamental reason is that money is worthless. Of course, some black businessmen are fanning the flames. If you can't buy supplies with your family's money, then what is the difference between your family's money and waste paper?

Team leader Li did not say whether Xu Damao was right or wrong, but just repeated: "Supply and demand."

"If you want stability, supply and demand must be balanced. Anyone who can fully understand these four words is already forward-looking, because this is the fundamental problem. But you, with your limited understanding, don't even think about becoming a professor at Capital University and misleading students. You'd better just keep raising your old hen and lay eggs."

"Also, now that everyone's diet standards have been lowered and supplies are being concentrated for major events, you should stop using the old hens from the chicken farm for outdoor barbecues. It has a bad influence. The chickens that were sick have just recovered. It's not good for you to waste them like this."

It sounds like criticism, but in fact only people like you would say that.

Moreover, that outdoor barbecue happened several months ago, and it was with Lin Haojie. It must have reached the ears of Team Leader Li.

Why does this city feel so unsafe?

There are enemy spies and reconnaissance personnel everywhere, right?
