Reborn in 1940 and survived until the new century

Chapter 416 Unbelievable

"That's fine. We can exchange some of the food we have for it. After all, we are all adults in our family and we eat more than children.

Another thing is, we have never had any restrictions on food for so many years. It is impossible that we cannot eat as much as we want just because we moved back to Beijing and because of food rationing.

Relatively speaking, the more food the better, but how do we get it back home is a problem?"

"There is no rush for this. In my opinion, while we are worrying about this issue, aren't other companies also worried?

Don't forget, in this yard, our family is the one with the smallest population, but they need much more food than us?

As long as they take action, we can just follow them.

With only three families like them, it is impossible for them not to make plans for their families in advance."

"Yes, if it doesn't work later, we can just move them bit by bit. Anyway, they will either be placed in a backpack or a nylon bag. As long as they don't take a look, how would they know what's inside?

Even if there are some doubts, as long as there is no solid evidence, no one can do anything to our family!"

"That's true. I'm afraid that if we prepare too much food, they will find out and ask us to borrow food."

"Don't worry about this. I will find a way to solve it later."

"What our mother said is right. We don't have to worry about this at all. As far as I know, since the resumption of the college entrance examination, I haven't heard of anyone's house being searched.

Especially things related to food, which haven’t happened in more than a year.”

"I've heard about this, too. One thing is certain: if anyone reports anyone again, regardless of whether there is evidence or not, everyone will isolate him and make it impossible for him to survive in one place."

"You are not the only ones who have heard about this. I have also heard about it a few times.

We haven't heard anything for such a long time. According to past practice, if someone comes out of the black market without carrying anything, they will be easily ignored by their own people."

But now, it has not happened even once, which shows that the higher-ups really don't intend to intervene.

That’s not right. They’re not ignoring us. Maybe they’re waiting for us.

If I remember correctly, a severe crackdown was launched two years later, and during this period, those unemployed people on the streets almost couldn't get out.

Thinking of this, I became more determined. There was nothing special about it. It would be better for me to develop slowly and discreetly, but I must not put myself in the hands of others.

But you should keep this in mind for now and don’t tell your family the details.

As for going to work, just go for it. Anyway, this job does not require any worries at all. Why not go to such a good company?

I really didn't expect that so many years had passed in such a flash.

Not only was I able to return to Beijing safely, but I also had the opportunity to find a job. That was at a post office, working at the counter. What's the difference between this and working in an office?

Although I can only get the lowest salary as a formal worker, it is still not as much as selling the pancakes I make myself.

But to be honest, the salary working in the post office is not bad.

Even though it may not seem like a lot now, in a few decades, by that time, the monthly pension alone will surely be a considerable sum of money.

I can say that I never thought that I could still go to work. It’s really unbelievable.

Don't forget, this is Beijing, not any other place. It's not easy to get a job as a formal employee.

It was September 9st, the second day after the children started school, that I officially started working.

So much so that for several days in a row, other people in the yard were a little confused when they saw me going out early and coming back late every day. Just today, after work, when I happened to be bored in the yard, someone came up to me and asked. ?

"What has his aunt Guo been busy with recently?"

"That's right. For several days in a row, I saw your house locked during the day. We can understand that your man is not at home because he is at work, but you are not at work, so why are you leaving early and coming back late?"

"Yes, if you need to take care of something and you are too busy, don't we still have our neighbors?"

"That's right. Even though you just moved in not long ago, to be honest, we are all neighbors. Since we are neighbors, we can at least lend a hand if we encounter any problems!"

"That's true."

That’s true, but there is no such need at home?

That’s right, I haven’t told them about my current job, so how would they know what I’m doing every day when I go out early and come back late?

You should tell them right away.

"Actually, there's nothing to be busy about. It's just that I found a job by chance. I've been busy at work these past few days and haven't had time to tell you."

"what?

work?

No way?

Who, did I hear that correctly?

"I don't think I heard it wrong. I'm at work."

"Yes, I am at work. I heard these words clearly."

"No, his aunt Guo, what's going on?

You actually went to work?

Which unit do you work in?

What job are you responsible for?"

"Yes?

Are you short of people there?

Look at me, no, how about the fourth child in our family?

A high school graduate, good looking, if it's the right match, you see "..."

"Yes, yes, his aunt, you see, our eldest grandson is also a high school student graduating this year, and his grades are pretty good, you see..."

"Stop, stop, listen to me first, I know what you mean, but I really can't help you with this matter?

First of all, I found this job with the help of relatives and friends.

Besides, you can understand how difficult it is to find a job in Beijing now, without me telling you. As for where I work, I work at the post office not far ahead."

"post office?

This is a great unit!”

"Yes, what are you responsible for?

Could it be that he is responsible for cleaning at the post office?"

"What happened to cleaning?

Even if there are no temporary workers in the post office, the benefits are better than those of some companies."

"That's true. Who are you, his aunt?"

"To be honest, I'm not responsible for cleaning. I work at the savings counter."

"what?

counter?

you?

How can it be? "
