Comfortable life in Siheyuan

Chapter 72 Pigeon Market

The three chatted for a while, and then Liu Qingshan went back to work.

Back in the technical department, he was still thinking about the matter and relaxed a little at work.

Fortunately, the planning drawings for the new workshop have been completed.

Now Feng Yu is pregnant again and needs more nutrition. Xixi is still young and needs more milk powder to supplement nutrition.

He currently has a considerable amount of savings and is not short of money.

But there are some things that money can't buy.

In this age of tickets, everything needs to go according to plan.

Having money doesn't necessarily help.

It would be better to go to the countryside to find a lactating sheep, so Liu Qingshan thought of the purchasing staff in the factory.

The factory's purchasing department three is responsible for purchasing food ingredients from the countryside and is under the management of the logistics department.

If you want to buy a head sheep, you still have to ask the purchasing department for help.

Once his thoughts became clear, Liu Qingshan stopped sitting and stood up to go to the office of Deputy Director Liu.

The factory office was not far away and we arrived there in a short while.

"Knock! Knock knock!" Liu Qingshan knocked directly on the door of Deputy Director Liu's office.

"Come in!"

Liu Feng's voice was heard from inside the room.

Opened the door and walked in.

"Director Liu, long time no see." Liu Qingshan walked in enthusiastically.

"Isn't this Mr. Liu? Welcome, welcome."

Deputy Director Liu stood up and went to greet him.

Liu Qingshan stepped forward and shook hands with Liu Feng enthusiastically.

"I should have come to visit you a long time ago, but I was afraid you would be busy when you first arrived, so I came only today." Liu Qingshan was not good at socializing and could only say nice things.

"Indeed, I have just taken over the logistics work. There are so many things to do, and I am overwhelmed now." Deputy Director Liu had a good impression of Liu Qingshan when he saw him. Last year, he went to help and was very sincere. Several technicians in the machine repair factory benefited a lot from him.

"Leader, the employees are in trouble and they can only come to you now. You must help them." Liu Qingshan is a man who cannot hide his thoughts, so he just says what he wants to say.

"Oh? You have an appointment with the leaders above, so what can be difficult for you?" Liu Feng was a little surprised. He also knew about the recent development of the steel mill, in which Liu Qingshan played a significant role.

"My wife is working now, and our child is in need of milk powder. I thought that there are many buyers in the factory who specialize in going to rural areas. Can they help me find a sheep that is currently feeding milk? This way, the child can get more nutrition." Liu Qingshan did not hesitate and just said it straightforwardly.

"You're so fast, you've even given birth to a child. I remember when I saw you last year, you had just gotten married.

Those who knew about it at that time thought you were a student. "

It had been about a year since Liu Qingshan went to the machine repair factory. At that time, he was still a young man who had just started working.

"I haven't been to the machine repair shop for more than a year. Look, Nan Yi is married to Ding Qiunan now. Time flies."

"Yeah, I'm your colleague now. We are old acquaintances. I'll ask the purchasing department to help you find it, but I can't guarantee it will work." Liu Feng felt that this matter still depended on luck and he might not be able to find it.

"It's okay. I'm very grateful for your help. I know this is a difficult matter." Liu Qingshan didn't want to hang himself on a tree. He came to see Deputy Director Liu purely on a whim.

"I'm relieved if you think so. This sheep is easy to find, but it's hard to tell if it's a sheep with milk. I'll ask people to keep an eye out for it when I get back."

After expressing his gratitude again, the two chatted for nearly an hour before Liu Qingshan left the office.

Two days later, there was news from Deputy Director Liu.

A buyer found a pregnant ewe in the countryside, but if he wanted to buy it, he had to wait for a month, at least until the sheep gave birth, before he could give it to him.

When Liu Qingshan heard the news, he relaxed completely.

After get off work in the evening, Sha Zhu came to me.

"Qingshan, I looked around for the milk powder ticket, but only found one. I'll give you these two first. I'm going to go to the Pigeon Market tonight." Sha Zhu said to him in a low voice.

"Okay, when are you going? Take me with you and we'll go together." Liu Qingshan thought about it. Zhuzi is helping him, and you can't let him go alone. It's not appropriate.

"That's fine. You go early and I'll find you then. Go back and find some old clothes. We'll set out together at 4 a.m. tomorrow."

When Liu Qingshan returned home, he first told his wife about finding the ewe. Feng Yu was also very happy to hear that.

"Wife, please help me find some old clothes. I plan to go to Pigeon City with Zhuzi. You and Xixi both need nutrition now, so I think we should go and take a look."

Liu Qingshan finally confessed to Feng Yu that he would go there in the evening. If he didn't tell her now, she would be more worried at night.

"Then be careful and follow Zhuzi. He has more experience."

"It's okay, don't worry. I'll go exchange some tickets and be back soon." Liu Qingshan took Xixi with one hand and hugged Xiaoyu's shoulders with the other.

In the early morning, just as the sky was getting light, the two of them walked out of Liu Qingshan's courtyard through the small door.

Sha Zhu took him to one of the largest pigeon markets in the old city, the pigeon market outside Jianguomen.

The four largest pigeon markets in the city, except the one we are visiting now, are outside Deshengmen, outside Yongdingmen and outside Fuchengmen.

These places are considered outside the city and belong to the countryside, but they are separated from the city by a wall. This is what we will call the urban-rural fringe.

In addition to these large pigeon markets, there are many other large and small pigeon markets in the old city.

Maybe any alley can be a small pigeon market.

These pigeon markets are filled with people in need starting at 4 a.m., who exchange what they need with each other before the inspectors go to work.

It was almost 5 o'clock when the two finally arrived.

There are still a lot of vegetables at this time of year, and most of them are on display in the pigeon market.

There are still very few other supplies, and the variety is not as wide as that of a small supermarket in the future.

Zhuzi did not stay at these stalls, but went straight to find a middle-aged man who was a little fat.

Liu Qingshan also took a few quick steps to catch up.

Only when I got closer did I notice that there were three or four young people around this person, looking around from time to time.

The man saw Sha Zhu walking towards him directly, but did not say anything. He turned around and walked behind a remote tree.

Zhuzi winked at Qingshan, indicating that he should follow.

When the three of them stood behind the tree, Liu Qingshan realized that the location here was very clever. People around them would not easily notice them, but it was very convenient for him to observe the people around him.

"Brother, my last name is Luo, you can just call me Fatty Luo, what do you want from me?"

"We want to find some milk powder tickets. I wonder if you have any, brother?" Sha Zhu didn't want to stay any longer, so he asked directly.

Fatty Luo took out a stack of bills from his pocket and flipped through them.

"I have all kinds of tickets here, including some milk powder tickets. What do you want to exchange?"

After all, he is in this business, and Liu Qingshan is jealous just looking at the money in his pocket.

Sha Zhu didn't say anything, but looked at Liu Qingshan.

"I want to change three tickets. Do you have any?" Liu Qingshan asked in a low voice.

"Yes, wait a moment." Then he took out three milk powder tickets.

"Do you still have the wine ticket?" Thinking that I would go to Nan Yi's house for dinner in a few days, it would be appropriate to bring a bottle of wine with me.

"If you dare to do this business, how can you not have all the goods?"
