Chapter 117: Raising Funds to Buy Food
Looking at the eyes of the onlookers, Uncle Yi Zhonghai said, "It's just that the supply is reduced every month. It's just a few kilograms per person per month.
As the notification has just been sent to each courtyard, many people have already panicked and have no idea how to deal with it.
In our yard, everyone is likely to be short of food. Let's each family take out some money and arrange a few people to go to the pigeon market. While many people haven't reacted yet, we should buy back the reduced amount this year.
Food costs only a few cents per pound. Now in June, even if your family is short of eight pounds a month, you will only have a few dozen pounds by the New Year."
After listening to Uncle Yi Zhonghai's words, many people's faces gradually improved.
It is true that ordinary people do not know anything, and some do not even know where Pigeon City is. Some honest people, even if they know where Pigeon City is, may not go there until the last minute.
The notice was just issued today, and I’m afraid that not many people will be able to react and buy food immediately tonight.
At least there are definitely fewer people than in the next few months. Of course, if you compare it with before, there are definitely more people.
From this point of view alone, Uncle Yi Zhonghai's suggestion is good.
As for everyone taking money to go to the Pigeon Market to buy the reduced portion of the food supply.
For example, a heavy manual worker would lose 40 kilograms per month, which means he would lose 8 kilograms per month.
Even if the price of corn flour in pigeon market is 20 cents per pound, it is only a little more than one yuan a month. By the New Year, it is only 10 yuan more.
Although compared to before, it costs a lot more money per month.
But the problem is that there is no food now. If we don’t buy food now while we can, we will hurry up and bring it home. Food will only become harder and harder to buy in the future.
As long as someone in the family has a job, there will be some savings.
Those who can think clearly will definitely buy more food, and no one will stop those who can't think clearly from buying.
There was a lot of discussion among the crowd, and many people were willing to pay to buy food. The buzzing sound continued.
The old man continued, "If you want to buy food, go home and prepare it. Let Qin Huairu keep the account later. If the quantity is not large, Sha Zhu and I can borrow a car to go to the Pigeon Market in the evening.
Also, don’t let the news leak out, otherwise too many people will go to buy food and we may not be able to buy much.”
Chen Changan looked at Uncle Yi Zhonghai's operation and said with a smile, "Uncle, I will not participate in this matter. First of all, our family is a martyr's family, and the street office will not reduce our family's food.
Besides, I have already written an application to join the party and am now in the probation stage. After all, going to Pigeon City to buy grain is still illegal.
I will soon be a party member, and I cannot do anything illegal. So I will not participate in this matter. "
After saying that, Chen Changan picked up his own small stool and went home.
Everyone looked at Chen Changan's back with different expressions. Some were disdainful and thought that Chen Changan's words were just for fame.
Maybe he would go to Pigeon Market to buy food at night. Many people were a little flustered when they heard Chen Changan say that it was illegal to go to Pigeon Market.
After all, since ancient times, the people have never fought against the officials. It would have been fine if I didn't know before, but now that I know it's illegal to go to Pigeon City, I'm a little discouraged.
After all, it is just a reduction in quantity, and you can get through it if you are patient. If you lose your job that can pass on your family line and provide a stable income because of breaking the law, then it will not be worth it.
Nan Yi was also discussing with Liang Ladi what to do. Both of them were considered heavy laborers, and each of them originally consumed more than 40 kilograms a month.
The two of them did the math and found that it was basically enough to eat. At worst, they could just spend their own money to buy a few more steamed buns in the motorcycle factory canteen every day.
After all, Liang Ladi's children all had registered residence in the old city and were also supplied with food.
So Liang Ladi said to Uncle Yi Zhonghai, "Uncle, our family has enough food, so we won't participate."
In the backyard, Xu Damao had just discussed something with Lou Xiao'e, the daughter of his own family, Lou Bancheng.
Thinking about the attitudes of Uncle Yi Zhonghai and Sha Zhu towards me.
Seeing that Chen Changan and Nan Yi's family did not give face to Uncle Yi Zhonghai.
Xu Damao also joined in, "Uncle, our family doesn't need to buy food, so we'll go back too."
Looking at the expressionless old man Yi Zhonghai, Xu Damao felt that he had not been able to hit the old man hard just now.
So he continued, "I heard that there will be people from the joint defense team patrolling at night. Be careful when you go out with Sha Zhu at night. Don't get caught by the joint defense team before you buy food."
It was obvious that the temple of the old man Yi Zhonghai twitched a few times.
Xu Damao felt that he had finally dealt a heavy blow to the old man Yi Zhonghai, so he burst into laughter.
"Xu Damao, you little bastard, how dare you curse us to get caught. Do you think I can kill you?" Sha Zhu, who was sitting not far away, heard what Xu Damao said and immediately wanted to hit Xu Damao.
Xu Damao was laughing just now, but when he heard what Sha Zhu said, he turned around and ran home.
But he ran too fast and fell flat on his face before he had taken a few steps.
Xu Damao was in a dishevel, lying on the ground with abrasions on his hands and feet, and even a lot of blood on his face.
Seeing this, Lou Xiaoe quickly ran over and helped Xu Damao up.
Seeing this, Sha Zhu immediately burst into laughter happily. After all, he chased Xu Damao just to scare him.
Who would have thought that Xu Damao would break his face by himself? Seeing Xu Damao in trouble, Shazhu was of course happy.
The simple-minded Lou Xiao'e was laughing at the silly Zhu who caused Xu Damao to fall like this.
He immediately angrily said to Sha Zhu, "Sha Zhu, my Xu Damao fell like this because of you. And you were still laughing beside him. Do you still have any sense of public morality?"
Sha Zhu said nonchalantly, "As long as Xu Damao is in trouble, I will be happy."
At this time, Xu Damao, who had just been knocked unconscious, finally recovered.
Seeing how he fell like this in public, his face has been completely lost today.
Thinking about going home quickly to clean the wound, Xu Damao said to Sha Zhu, "Sha Zhu, wait for me."
After saying these harsh words, Xu Damao went straight home with the support of Lou Xiaoe.
But Sha Zhu curled his lips in disdain. From childhood to adulthood, every time Xu Damao suffered a loss at his hands, he would always say this.
I have heard it thousands of times, if not tens of thousands. Xu Damao's only skill is to be tough.
But Uncle Yi Zhonghai didn't care about what happened between Sha Zhu and Xu Damao at all.
Instead, I was thinking about the reason why Chen Changan didn't buy food. After all, heavy-duty workers basically eat about 40 kilograms a month. Chen Changan is the factory director and an administrative staff member.
We only have about 30 kilograms of food each month, and this kid is at the age where he would starve to death.
Uncle Yi Zhonghai had long known that Chen Changan did not ask the street office to treat their family as martyrs' relatives.
Uncle Yi Zhonghai felt that if they didn't go to Pigeon City, Chen Changan's family would not have enough food in a few months.
The rest are basically ways to make mistakes.
For example, buying food on the black market or embezzling food from the motorcycle factory canteen?
Suddenly I thought, isn't Nan Yi the chef at the motorcycle factory? Are the two of them usually on good terms?
Nan Yi's family has so many people, but they don't need to buy food?
Suddenly, Uncle Yi Zhonghai felt as if he had discovered some huge secret.
