Start to adjust the Siheyuan from Brickpai Yizhonghai

Chapter 95: Pointing out the way

Xiao Liu ran out happily again without even taking any money. It seemed that he was planning to buy the peanuts with his own money.

"Yeah. Why did you think of drinking with me today? Just tell me what you want to say. As long as Brother Wu can help, it will be no problem."

"Look at what you said. If I have nothing to do, I can't come and have a drink with you, brother."

"Hey, kid. I don't usually see you come to sit with me. Come on, kid, don't keep me in suspense."

"It's not a big deal. Wu Ge also knows that my job quota is under the dual leadership of the street and the steel mill."

"I know about this!"

"The subdistrict office knew that I was transferred from the publicity department to the procurement department, and they also wanted me to use my work experience to help them purchase some supplies."

"There's still this? Then go ahead and pick it."

"Yes, I was thinking. After purchasing the materials, should I take them directly to their place or to our factory? If I bring them into the factory, I'm afraid I won't be able to take them out without someone from your security department to speak to me. It's hard to make a decision."

"The people at the subdistrict office are really calculating. They just want you to smuggle in the goods, right?"

"Brother Wu, don't say such harsh words. You know, although I was transferred to the purchasing department, I am just an accountant."

"I don't buy supplies to hand them over to the purchasing department. You know if I run to the street office to hand them over, I won't be able to make it back in time for get off work. It's okay once or twice, but if it goes on for a long time, I'm afraid it will cause trouble."

After drinking and eating, the most enjoyable thing to talk about is over the table.

Section Chief Wu nodded thoughtfully: "It's true that what you're doing is not in compliance with the rules, but it's not as bad as you think. It can still be done."

Wang Gensheng immediately scratched his ears, and raised his glass again with a smile: "Brother Wu, tell me what you have to say. I'm all ears."

"Don't play those fancy tricks with me, kid."

"You are just an amateur in purchasing. Just discuss it with the purchasing section chief. You can leave the purchased materials at the entrance of the security section instead of entering the main gate of the steel mill."

"Is this possible? I hope it won't cause any trouble for you guys?"

"It's okay. You didn't bring it into the factory. If you bring it outside, our security department will turn a blind eye and let it go."

After hearing what Section Chief Wu said, Wang Gensong's eyes lit up and he smiled and picked up the bottle to refill Section Chief Wu's glass.

Section Chief Wu was also enjoying his drink, so he changed the subject and started chatting with Wang Gensheng:

"Don't think that being a purchaser is easy. After paying the public grain, the brigades in the villages have to set aside some food for the villagers. In fact, there is not much food left to be used, and there is even less that can be sold to you."

"I see. Why did the street side also ask me to help them purchase supplies? So that's what's going on."

Nodding again, Section Chief Wu said earnestly, "In fact, the subdistrict office is also watching the wheat harvest right now. With one more person like you to purchase and reserve supplies, they will be able to have an easier time."

Wang Gensheng also smiled and nodded in agreement: "Yes, the amount the street office ordered from me was not much. They asked me to deliver 600 kilograms of corn flour and 40 chickens every month, which is about to kilograms."

"That's a lot. Don't think this job is easy just because Lao Chang and his team can deliver 100 kilograms of corn flour to the steel mill every day. Lao Chang and his team are experienced buyers, and they have a lot of connections under them, so they can guarantee the daily purchase volume."

"A greenhorn like you who dives in headfirst without knowing the place is unlikely to gain much." After hearing this, Wang Gensheng nodded in understanding.

In fact, Wang Gensheng didn't take these things seriously. He had three private plots in the system space, and could harvest two crops of grain every day.

Although the private plot is only 3 square meters, it has a fast production speed and high yield per mu.

After this week, the amount of grain produced is quite a lot.

It just so happened that Wang Gensheng could use this excuse of purchasing to secretly take out some food for himself and hide it from the eyes of those beasts in the courtyard.

Even if they find out and report it, the street authorities will just turn a blind eye.

They can't just slap their salesperson to death, right? That doesn't make sense!

After a while, Section Chief Wu was already a little tipsy and started talking again.

"The price of food has increased recently. Do you know about the price of food?"

Zheng Shuang shook his head slightly, because he was not in charge of purchasing grain, so he was not very clear about the specific price.

"I only know that Brother Chang and his people usually spend 7 cents on corn flour, and sometimes as much as 8 cents."

Old Wu nodded.

"Corn noodles sold outside are now 1 cents. Do you know why they buy them for only 1 or cents?"

Wang Gensheng didn’t know much about this matter, so he just tried to ask: “Is it because they purchase a large amount?

Section Chief Wu smiled and shook his hand and said:

"Not yet, because they need food coupons to purchase at this price, and in the brigades that go to the countryside, they don't have many opportunities to get access to national food coupons."

"They will need food stamps if they are going on a long trip or if a college student comes from the village. This is one of the few opportunities for them to get food stamps, so they can only sell them to the purchasers at a lower price."

“If you want to exchange it for money, you can take it to the pigeon market. It’s easy to sell it for one cent. One cent.” Wang Gensheng nodded in agreement.

I filled Section Chief Wu's glass again and asked him for advice. Section Chief Wu started talking and naturally talked more.

"White flour is 1 yuan per pound, rice is 8 yuan, polished rice is 1 yuan, and pork is 6 yuan. These are the prices with invoices purchased by outside buyers. If you go to the countryside to collect them according to this, you won't make any big mistakes. Wang Gensheng nodded hurriedly and said, "Yes."

We just had a famine two years ago, and now the country’s meat supply is seriously insufficient. In many places you can’t buy meat even with meat coupons.

Therefore, this meat ticket is basically useless, and the price will fluctuate by about 20% if the ticket is not used.

"For example, pork is 7 cents, but without a ticket it would be one dollar and one ten-thousandth."

"Okay, thanks, brother. If you hadn't reminded me, I would have been in a difficult situation."

After listening to what Brother Wu said, Wang Gensheng could understand it better.

Why is it that every time I go to the market to buy meat and pig's trotters, there is always a long queue in front of the meat stall?

It turned out that the supply of meat was so tight. Fortunately, the things that Wang Gen ate raw were not what others wanted.

For example, he likes to eat pig's trotters, pig's tails, pig's hearts, pig's heads, and sheep's offal.

At the end of the conversation, Section Chief Wu reminded Wang Gensheng again, "Remember to tell your purchasing section chief to apply for a gun to carry on your body before going to the countryside to purchase goods."
