Siheyuan: Grassroots Counterattack

Now Li Tianyi's space is filled up again. The space that was previously vacant with great difficulty is filled up again.

After returning to the dormitory, Li Tianyi slept for a whole day and night. He had been highly concentrated on the train, and now that he was relaxing, he felt unprecedentedly tired.

In the days that followed, Li Tianyi went out for a walk every day, and bought anything he saw that looked good. Because there were many ethnic minorities here, the tickets were not popular, but as long as you had money, you could sometimes buy them.

So Li Tianyi went shopping, and when Li Huaide and others arrived, Li Tianyi's three suitcases were already full.

When Li Tianyi saw them, he quickly led them to the guesthouse and asked them to wash up and have a rest before meeting the leaders here tomorrow.

Everyone did not refuse. They were really tired in the past half month. In addition to those blocking the road, they also encountered wolves several times. Although they escaped danger every time, the pressure in their hearts was getting heavier and heavier.

After Li Tianyi sent Li Huaide into the room, he went back to his own room first. Although he also wanted to know the situation at home, especially Xiaoxue's current situation, he could not disturb Li Huaide's rest.

The next morning, Li Huaide was fully revived. Today he and Li Tianyi were going to meet the legion leaders, and then arrange for the convoy to go to the warehouse to unload the goods.

All the formalities were completed in the morning. The team leader of the motor vehicle team led the fleet to the warehouse, followed by the security chief and his staff. They then went to the slaughterhouse and began to load the meat according to the agreed quantity.

Li Huaide did not dare to be careless and followed the whole process. Only after the required amount of meat was packed did Li Huaide breathe a sigh of relief.

When Li Tianyi came to find him, Li Huaide arranged the security work and returned to his room.

"Uncle, you must be tired these days?" Li Tianyi said jokingly.

"Hahahaha, Tianyi, you are really the lucky star of my Li family. With so much meat brought back, the factory will be in an uproar, right?" Li Huaide was a little too proud of himself at this time.

Li Tianyi had to pour a basin of cold water on him, "Uncle, don't be too happy too soon. Have you ever thought about it? After you go back, the Ministry of Industry and the steel mill's brother factories will all come to you like cats smelling fish. In the end, how many people will be able to stay in the steel mill?"

Li Huaide was stunned for a moment. Yes, there is a serious shortage of meat in the city now. Although the government is doing its best to ensure the supply of materials in the city, where can the government get materials in the face of a nationwide natural disaster?

Nowadays, higher authorities advocate self-reliance, hard work, and encourage enterprises to solve their own material problems. If not, he would not have risked his life to come to the border.

"Tianyi, since you raised this question, you must have thought of a solution, right?"

Li Huaide looked at his nephew hopefully, and Li Tianyi lived up to his expectations and nodded, "Yes, uncle, I have an idea."

"Uncle, there is still more than a month before the Chinese New Year. You can talk to the leaders here first to see if you can exchange more meat. If possible, you can contact Grandpa Wu. He is in charge of logistics. I believe he must have more resources than you."

Li Huaide nodded in agreement. Yes, Li Tianyi was right. Doing this would not only help his father-in-law gain merit, but also highlight his spirit of not forgetting his superiors.

Li Huaide did what he said. He found the leader again and after much persuasion, the leader finally gave in and agreed to exchange brown sugar for meat.

Li Huaide immediately contacted his father-in-law and explained the situation to him. However, his father-in-law did not agree immediately, but asked his superior for instructions. After the minister agreed, he contacted Li Huaide and agreed to the replacement.

Another half month passed like this, and not only Li Tianyi was still buying things, but also Li Huaide, the driver who came here, and everyone in the security department bought something. After all, it was not easy to go on a long trip, so he bought some gifts for his family.

The steel rolling mill's convoy had returned long ago, but Li Huaide and Li Tianyi did not go back. They wanted to wait here for the ministry's convoy to arrive.

The convoy arrived soon. The team leader was a director of logistics from the Ministry of Industry, who was acquainted with Li Huaide. After the two shook hands, they went to find the corps leader, and then they started unloading and loading the cargo.

After the goods were loaded, the convoy rested for a day and set off early the next morning. Now there are more than 20 days before the Chinese New Year, and they have to transport the goods back to Sijiucheng before the Chinese New Year.

This time, Li Tianyi and Li Huaide also went back with the car. There was nothing else for him to do here, so he had to go back to Sijiu City to report on his work.

After another nearly 15 days of driving, the convoy finally entered Sijiu City. Li Tianyi and Li Huaide went straight home after getting off the car. They were really exhausted during this period, and they were all like human beings.

It was evening now, and Li's father and mother had already gone home to cook. Wang Xue was now advanced in pregnancy, with only three months left before her due date, so the tasks assigned to her by the hospital were much easier.

Li Tianyi walked into the yard. There was no one in the yard. There were voices coming from the kitchen and the main house. Li Tianyi shouted, "Mom, I'm back."

In an instant, the voices in the room disappeared, and then there was the sound of the door opening. Li's mother ran out of the kitchen, and Wang Xue came out with the support of her younger sister.

"Oh, my eldest son, you have suffered a lot." When Li's mother saw her son's untidy beard, her heart ached and tears fell.

Wang Xue also covered her mouth, tears welling up in her eyes. Father Li and Hu Zi stood at the door, smiling happily.

"Well, old woman, you should be happy that your son is back. Why are you crying? Come on, go inside. It's so cold. Don't freeze outside."

Li's mother finally reacted and took Li Tianyi's hand and wanted to go into the house. Li Tianyi wiped her mother's tears, then smiled at Wang Xue and said, "Dad, you and Huzi take the bag at the door home. I exchanged it with a fellow villager in the border area."

"Okay, don't worry about it, just go into the house." Father Li waved his hand and took Hu Zi to the door.

Li's mother pulled Li Tianyi into the house, and Wang Xue and his younger sister followed behind. At this time, Li Tianyi wanted to take a good bath and then trim his hair.

"Mom, you cook first. I'll go get some clothes and then go to the bathhouse to wash. I smell."

"Go ahead, and come back soon. I'll make you something delicious." After saying that, he went to the kitchen.

Li Tianyi then took Wang Xue's hand and walked into the house, "Xiaoxue, you have worked hard these past few months." Li Tianyi caressed Wang Xue's belly tenderly, and Wang Xue also looked at Li Tianyi with love.

"Brother Tian, ​​it's not hard. I'm very happy to have this little guy accompany me." At this moment, Wang Xue frowned.

"What's wrong, Xue'er? Are you feeling unwell?"
