Siheyuan: I Raised Ten Thousand Wild Boars
Chapter 111 Killing Chickens and Stockpiling Food
"Guohua, take it easy and don't bump into anyone."
Li Guohua rode his bicycle around in the alley, causing Zhao Yunxia on the back seat to scream.
Once the focus of life shifted to the farm, the two spent more and more time together. After get off work, Zhao Yunxia did not take the bus, but Li Guohua rode his bike to take him home.
When we returned to the courtyard, we didn't know where Uncle Fang had gone again. We also didn't see Fang Fang and Fang Hua. We didn't know if he had gone to look for someone again.
"Hey, Guohua is back. Uncle San wants to ask you something. You can't evade Uncle San!"
Yan Bugui seemed to be waiting at the gate of the yard on purpose. As soon as Li Guohua parked his car at the door of his house, he rushed out from the corner with a watering can.
"Uncle, if you have something to say, just tell me. I will definitely not hide it from you!" Li Guohua said with a smile
This third uncle is actually a wonderful person.
During the last Chinese New Year, Jia Zhang threatened him, saying that the Jia family had also borrowed meat from their family. As a result, when Jia Dongxu gritted his teeth and admitted it, and Yi Zhonghai was ready to help the Jia family pay it back, he himself did not want it, and finally accepted the money for the couplet.
You can say he is stingy, but you have to admit that he has his own bottom line.
"Hey Guohua, is your factory's farm still recruiting? Do you think my Jiefang can go in? He is already 17 years old and has a lot of strength. Isn't he much more capable than the two boys from the Zhou family?" Yan Bugui asked hesitantly and embarrassedly.
Li Guohua understood as soon as he heard it. It must be that the school also received the notice to reduce the dosage.
I have to say that the third uncle has a very keen sense of smell. He is indeed a scholar and his thoughts are deeper than those of ordinary people.
This is just the beginning of the reduction in dosage, and most people probably think it is temporary and will recover soon, but he has already started to prepare for the future.
When the situation really gets serious, the best place to go is to work on a farm. No matter what happens outside, a farm is a place where food is produced, so you will never starve.
"Uncle, it's too late for you to say that. The farm is already fully staffed! When I told you about it last year, you were indifferent, but now there's nothing I can do!" Li Guohua said with a smile.
When Zhou Xiaohu went to the farm last winter, Yan Bugui somehow found out about it and specifically asked about it. Li Guohua couldn't refuse, so he could only say that he could go there and that he would be provided with three meals a day, but no salary.
Yan Bugui gave up immediately when he heard that there would be no salary. Although Yan Jiefang did not have a formal job, he was also a junior high school graduate, and he would not do such a disadvantageous thing.
"Oh, I didn't know it would be like this! My ration is already low, and the child is still young and growing, so I can't do anything about it!"
Yan Bugui thought, it was all because of calculation. He didn't go in the first place because of calculation, and now he wants to go, it's also for the future of his family.
It seems that in the coming days, when cooking at home, we will have to count the rice before putting it into the pot. It is always a good idea to be safe than sorry. It is always a good idea to store as much food as possible.
"Uncle, don't worry. When the farm recruits people, we will definitely make arrangements for your family first!" Li Guohua said with a smile.
This person has never suffered a little, so he won't cherish things that are too easy to get. After all, he lives in this courtyard, and we are all neighbors. He can't just stand by and watch someone die.
It is still early now and the most difficult time has not come yet. When everyone is unable to make ends meet, we will send them to the farm. They will not have wages but will have three meals a day. I guarantee that no one will complain and they will all be grateful.
When they got back to the backyard, their father and eldest brother had finished get off work and the whole family was there. The textile factory was too far away, so Li Guohua and his wife were the last to come back every day.
"Guohua, you're back. Has your textile factory notified you of the reduction in quota?"
Sure enough, when the news of the reduction came out, everyone was concerned about this matter. The superior is worthy of being a superior, throwing some smoke bombs first, and then stabilizing people's hearts.
"You guys also notified them?"
"It's been announced! Not only our steel mill, but I heard that all the units in the capital have reduced their staffing. Ours is relatively good, with only a 50% reduction. I heard that some units have directly reduced their staffing by 10%!"
When Li Guoliang said this, there was a hint of worry on his proud face.
What makes them proud is that their factory has reduced the least, and everyone should be envious of them. But what worries them is that they have also reduced the amount.
"I heard that the street office will soon notify everyone. Do you think something has happened?" Chen Lan, wearing an apron, put a full bowl of porridge on the table and asked curiously.
"What are you talking about? Is this something we should care about? We just need to obey our superiors! You can just talk about this at home, but don't mention it outside. The same goes for you guys!"
Li Chuwu is Li Chuwu, a person who lived before liberation, and he has the wisdom to survive. However, although he said he didn't care, his brows were deeply furrowed.
"Mom, from today on, don't buy white flour every month. Replace it with coarse grains. If you want to eat fine grains, I will bring them back when the time comes! Also, don't save the extra food coupons you have. Replace them all with grains. If you can't finish them, store them in my room. It won't be conspicuous!"
Every month, the street issued food coupons, which were divided into different types of grains, with a small portion of fine grains and a large portion of coarse grains.
In the past, the Li family had the fine grain coupons every month, which were all used to buy the fine grains themselves. At that time, many people bought them, so it was not a big deal.
Now that difficult times are coming, if you continue to buy fine grains, then the people who buy grain with you, especially the acquaintances in the alley, will hate you when they see you. It is not the lack of grain that is worrying, but the inequality of distribution. This is true of everything in the world.
"Okay, I'll listen to you. Then should we keep our two chickens or kill them too?"
As soon as Li Guohua said this, Chen Lan knew what he meant. There were still two laying chickens at home, which had been kept in the abandoned East Cross Courtyard to eat insects and grass, plus some wheat bran and vegetable leaves that Li Guohua brought back.
Now that we have started to reduce the amount, if we continue to raise chickens, it will be somewhat conspicuous.
"Brother, brother, if we kill the chicken, will we still have boiled eggs to eat in the future?"
When Chahua heard that her mother was going to kill chickens, she became anxious because she depended on them for boiled eggs every month.
"If it doesn't work, just kill them. As for the eggs, I'll go find Xu Damao and ask him to bring some back for us every month!"
I don't even plan to buy fine grains, so why bother raising chickens? Once this person gets hungry, he can do anything, not to mention that there is a future thief saint in the courtyard, so I don't want to be unable to eat when the time comes.
As for asking Xu Damao to buy eggs, it was actually also for the source and explanation.
Not to mention myself, my eldest brother is in purchasing work, so it's hard for him to get eggs. However, in order to prevent the emergence of the second Jia Zhang, I must be cautious first.
