The days of being a buyer in Siheyuan

Liu Minghui would certainly not refuse the suggestion made by Li Huaide. This was also for the good of his subordinates. There was a huge difference between having a gun and not having a gun.

At least I can take it out and make the robbers afraid to move.

"That's a good feeling. It's also good to have a gun."

Liu Minghui said with great agreement.

"Okay, I'll discuss this issue with Director Yang later."

Li Huaide waved his hand and talked about something else.

"You also know that our country is now going to produce a lot of steel. Our steel rolling mill is also a big factory. Our task this year is very severe. This is a big test."

"So Director Yang hopes that we can provide the workers with better food. What do you think about this?"

Li Huaide talked about this matter, and this is why Li Huaide went to find Liu Minghui. After all, apart from Li Huaide himself, Liu Minghui was the only one who had the ability to solve it.

"Uncle Li, this is not a big or small problem. If it takes a week or so, it's fine. But if it takes longer, which factory has the capacity to do so?"

"I understand the problem you're talking about. I don't think pork is necessary. Pheasants and rabbits will also work. You're an expert in this area, so I wanted to ask for your opinion."

Li Huaide sighed and said.

After hearing this, Liu Minghui thought for a while. It seemed that there were quite a lot of pheasants and rabbits in his space. He had not supplied them to the steel mill in the past two months. Why not take some out?

"I can still get you what you want, but it won't be too much. There are too many workers now, and each person may not get more than a few pieces of meat."

Liu Minghui explained his plan, and Li Huaide nodded and said, "The meat processing plant can also supply a lot every month, and what you have purchased is almost enough, so the rest can be handed over to the canteen."

"At most you can add more dishes, at least it will have some meaty flavor."

Li Huaide discussed with Liu Minghui again, and Liu Minghui left Li Huaide's office. When he left, he also took away two packs of Li Huaide's special cigarettes.

Then Liu Minghui hurried back to the purchasing department, otherwise Li Huaide would snatch it back later.

"Sister Tong, are they all out today?"

Seeing that Tong Xiao was the only one in the purchasing department, Liu Minghui asked casually.

"Of course. How can we not go to the countryside? The task is so heavy now."

Tong Xiao said this with a bit of complaint. This is because she is very busy now. Reimbursements are processed by her first, and then she coordinates with the finance department, which adds a lot of workload for her every day.

"Hey, Sister Tong, you've worked hard. I'll give you a raise someday."

Liu Minghui waved his hand and said directly.

"Really? Don't lie to me."

"How can that be possible? I can't fool anyone but you."

Liu Minghui shook his head and said that this time Li Huaide had specially approved it. Many people in the purchasing department would be promoted this month because they had worked hard in the past two months.

"That's great. I feel full of energy now."

Tong Xiao said happily, who wouldn’t be happy with a salary increase?

Liu Minghui chatted with Tong Xiao for a few words and then went back to his office.

When it was almost time to get off work in the afternoon, many buyers came back, and Liu Dazhuang came back with them. Liu Dazhuang had been in Liujia Village for two or three days. During these days, he had purchased supplies from several nearby villages. He came back today and couldn't carry all the supplies on his bicycle, so he had to go again tomorrow.

After asking Tong Xiao for reimbursement, Liu Dazhuang went to find Liu Minghui.

"Second brother, you are back. I hope your trip to the countryside goes well this time."

When Liu Minghui saw Liu Dazhuang coming in, he greeted him.

Liu Dazhuang sat down opposite Liu Minghui in one breath.

"It's not bad. Now the countryside is doing big pot meals. Many villagers bought me the things they had saved. There are still a lot left at home. I will go get them back tomorrow."

Liu Dazhuang introduced the situation in the countryside to Liu Minghui.

Now rural areas also have to build blast furnaces to make steel, and everyone has to eat from a big pot. Then all non-essential iron products in the home will be used to make steel.

"Brother, all the pots at home have been dismantled to make steel, and no one is taking care of the farm work. What do you think we should do?"

Liu Dazhuang looked at Liu Minghui with a bewildered look on his face and said, Liu Dazhuang has been in the countryside for more than 20 years, of course he knows that farming is a farmer's job, but now everyone is working in the steelmaking industry, which makes Liu Dazhuang at a loss as to what to say.

"Brother, this is an order from above, and everyone is just responding to the call. You don't have to worry about our parents. If they have nothing to eat, you can just let them stay in the courtyard for a while."

Liu Minghui wanted to comfort his second brother. This was the solution Liu Minghui thought of. At worst, he could just take the two elders in and raise them himself. No one would have any objection to this.

My weak arms and legs are not enough to resist this force.

"Alas, this is the only way. Fortunately, my parents have hidden a lot of food at home."

Liu Dazhuang said dejectedly.

Liu's father and his companions were also smart people, so they naturally would not hand over all the food. Of course, basically everyone would hide some food at home. This was the way the lower class people protected themselves, and they would never put everything in one basket.

"That's not bad. Go back more often in the future and bring some food home each time. It doesn't have to be a lot, just a little bit at a time."

Liu Minghui gave Liu Dazhuang some advice, otherwise it would attract too much attention if he brought too many things.

"Okay, I'll go back every two days."

Liu Dazhuang nodded and said that he took Liu Minghui's words to heart.

Looking at the time, it was almost time to get off work, so Liu Minghui took Liu Dazhuang out of the office. Seeing that there were many buyers outside, Liu Minghui clapped his hands and motioned for everyone to look over.

"Everyone is here. I want to tell you something. If anyone is not here, take them over."

"I mentioned to Deputy Factory Director Li today about the safety of our trips to the countryside. Deputy Factory Director Li agreed that we can go to the security department to get a pistol when we go to the countryside."

Liu Minghui said a few brief words, which made many buyers happy, after all, it was a matter of their own safety.

"Chief, can we go and get it tomorrow?"

A young man spoke up. Liu Minghui took a look at him and found that he was recruited recently. It seemed that he had gained access to someone's connections, but Liu Minghui didn't care.

Just say the rest.

"You just need to register with the Security Department before going to the countryside. Of course, if you have time, you can also practice at the Security Department's shooting range."

"When you return to the factory, you must hand it back to the security department as soon as possible. If you have used it, you must also record the incident."

“It’s also a way to prevent some special problems.”

Liu Minghui said a lot in one breath and explained the rules of the Security Department to them clearly.
