The days of being a buyer in Siheyuan

Yi Zhonghai said disappointedly: "Is this not possible?"

Liu Minghui nodded and said, "Rural people don't have enough food to eat right now. Our purchasing department usually buys vegetables and various meats. We don't need to buy food."

Yi Zhonghai also knew that Liu Minghui could not help, so he said disappointedly: "Forget it, let Dongxu go to buy food coupons."

Then they skipped this topic and talked about other things.

However, everyone present had a new understanding of Yi Zhonghai and felt that he was not as good as he usually appeared.

After a while, the group dispersed. After they left, Xu's father said to Xu Damao, "Be careful when you are alone in the yard in the future."

Xu Damao nodded to show that he understood.

"I didn't know Yi Zhonghai was such a person."

"You don't know a lot. Your father has lived here for decades, so how could I not know?"

"Yi Zhonghai has always been like this, but he has no children so he pretends to be a good guy in public."

Xu Damao and his son were chatting about things in the yard.

After Yi Zhonghai arrived at the Intermediate Court, he called Jia Dongxu out.

"Master, what's the matter?"

"Dongxu, I talked to Liu Minghui about what you said this morning."

Jia Dongxu quickly asked: "Since Liu Minghui said so, can he help?"

Yi Zhonghai shook his head.

"Liu Minghui said it was illegal and he would not help, and he couldn't buy food."

"How could that be? How could it be possible that we can't buy grain produced in the countryside?"

Of course Yi Zhonghai also knew this problem. The countryside did not mean there was more food. It might even be worse than in the city.

"Dongxu, I can't help you with this matter. Today, Liu Minghui brought up the old lady Zhao's family in the backyard. Their family is in much more trouble than yours."

What Yi Zhonghai meant was that there are people in the courtyard who are in a worse situation than your family, so you can’t always come out to complain about your misery.

At the Jia family, Jia Zhangshi and Qin Huairu watched Jia Dongxu walk in with a gloomy face.

"Dongxu, what's wrong with you? Did the old man say anything?"

Qin Huairu looked at Jia Dongxu worriedly.

Looking at Qin Huairu, Jia Dongxu could only repeat what Yi Zhonghai said.

Jia Zhang was furious when she heard this: "That damn Liu Minghui, why can't he help our family? And your master Yi Zhonghua is not a good person either, he can't even handle such a small matter."

It’s better to look at Qin Huairu.

"I didn't agree with Dongxu marrying you at the beginning. If he hadn't married you, our family would definitely be living a good life now."

When the matchmaker brought Qin Huairu to the house, Jia Zhangshi did not agree, but Jia Dongxu couldn't help but fall in love with her. After all, the young Qin Huairu was really beautiful.

It was fine two years ago, but now rural residents have no food ration, so Jia Zhang is unhappy with Qin Huairu in every way.

Yi Zhonghai was at home listening to the noisy noise coming from across the street and felt very disgusted with Jia Zhangshi, because Jia Zhangshi was lazy and gluttonous, and everyone in the courtyard disliked her.

Yan Bugui had just returned home and sat down when Yan Jiecheng came to find him.

"Dad, what did the two uncles say?"

This concerns whether he can enter the factory, so Yan Jiecheng must be anxious.

Yan Bugui sat down and then spoke: "Forget about becoming my disciple. Now you can only spend money to find connections."

"How much will that cost?"

"At least five hundred yuan." Yan Bugui looked at Yan Jiecheng.

Yan Jiecheng knew that it was impossible to ask his father to pay this money.

"Dad, you help me pay this money first, and I will pay you back ten dollars every month in the future."

Yan Bugui shook his head.

Yan Jiecheng became anxious when he saw that his father disagreed.

"Dad, aren't you going to help?"

Yan Bugui finally said, "I didn't say I wouldn't help you. What I meant was that you can't just pay this little."

"How much does it cost?"

Yan Bugui took out an abacus and started calculating for a long time.

"You have to pay twelve dollars a month, and then you have to pay five dollars a month for food, just like now. I won't charge you interest on the money I use to buy you a job."

After Yan Jiecheng calculated, he became unhappy. The apprentice's monthly salary was only 18 yuan, and after paying his salary, he would only have one yuan left.

"Dad, you're asking too much. I eat in the cafeteria at noon after work. Why do you want five dollars for food?"

Yan Bugui thought about it and thought it made sense. "Then you only need to pay three yuan a month for food. Two yuan is enough for you to eat in the cafeteria. Twelve yuan a month cannot be less." "Think about it. You will get a salary increase in the second year. You can get two yuan more a month."

"If you don't want it, then find a way yourself. I won't care about you." Yan Jiecheng had no choice but to agree.

"Then you have to help me get it done quickly. Maybe we'll be full in a day or two."

Yan Bugui waved his hand to indicate that he understood.

The next day, Liu Minghui slept until dawn because he had drunk a lot of wine the night before.

After getting up, Liu Minghui went to wash and prepare to go to work. He got up late today and everyone in the hospital was about to go to work.

While I was washing up at the door, Xu Damao came out of the middle courtyard pushing his bicycle.

"Minghui. Good morning."

Liu Minghui answered while brushing his teeth: "Morning."

After saying hello, Xu Damao did not leave, but waited for Liu Minghui.

After Liu Minghui finished dealing with it, he looked at Xu Damao who had not left yet and asked in confusion: "Is Damao in trouble? Why haven't you left yet?"

Xu Damao chuckled and said, "I'm waiting for you. Come on, I'll treat you to breakfast."

Ever since Xu Damao discovered that Liu Minghui and Li Huaide had a good relationship, he had made up his mind to establish a good relationship with Liu Minghui.

So what's the point of treating me to breakfast?

Seeing that he looked serious, Liu Minghui also pushed the cart out.

"Where are we going to eat?"

"Let's go to the braised pork restaurant at the entrance of the alley. It tastes good."

"Okay, let's go."

After saying that, the two of them rode their bikes to the braised pork shop at the entrance of the alley.

As soon as he entered the door, Xu Damao shouted, "Two bowls of stewed pork, and four buns."

After that, Xu Damao asked Liu Minghui: "Minghui, do you want anything else?"

Liu Minghui shook his head and said, "This is enough to eat."

After that, the two of them found a place to sit down. There were quite a few customers in this restaurant.

"Lao Sun's shop has been here for nearly ten years. His cooking skills are very good. I usually come here to eat in the morning."

Xu Damao introduced the history of this store to Liu Minghui.

“I’ve been here twice before, and the taste is really good.”

Liu Minghui also expressed his affirmation.

After a while, Lao Sun came up with two bowls of stewed food and buns.

Although it is now a public-private partnership, Old Sun is still in charge, and Manager Fang does not have this skill.

The two of them had breakfast here. Xu Damao knew a lot about the surrounding area and kept introducing it to Liu Minghui.

Liu Minghui knew that Xu Damao was trying to befriend him, but he also thought that Xu Damao was an okay person. After all, he was only eighteen or nineteen years old, so how could he have any bad intentions? After the meal, the two of them became much closer.
