My courtyard shelter

Zhou Jiaqing is a chief physician at the First Hospital of Yanda University. In the morning, he went to the hospital cafeteria to eat as usual.

The current food ration is tight, but as a doctor, it is necessary to maintain sufficient physical strength, otherwise, an innocent life will be lost.

It is precisely because of this that his share of food rations is not only larger than others, but he can also occasionally be allocated some nutritional supplements.

It seems that he was right to study medicine.

As soon as he arrived at the cafeteria door, Zhou Jiaqing met his colleague Lao Zhang, who looked anxious and seemed to be waiting for someone.

"Lao Zhang, what's wrong with you?" Zhou Jiaqing asked casually.

"Lao Zhou, go back and get the meal ticket quickly. The cafeteria has added food today. If you don't buy it, it will be sold out."

"Additional food?"

It's impossible. Is there meat and vegetables?

Zhou Jiaqing's eyes widened.

Speaking of which, he had forgotten how long it had been since he had eaten meat. Although doctors have good benefits, at most they can only have enough food to eat. It’s useless to think about other things.

“Yes, and they allow takeout, which is unprecedented.” Old Zhang said thankfully.

Zhou Jiaqing didn’t care about anything else and quickly took out his mobile phone to call home and asked his daughter-in-law to send all his meal tickets.

After the call, he remembered that he hadn’t asked what the dishes were, so he quickly asked: “Old Zhang, what kind of dishes are added in the cafeteria? Are there any meat dishes?”

“Meat dishes? You really dare to think so!” Old Zhang smiled bitterly.

“What is that?” Zhou Jiaqing was a little disappointed.

"It's bread. The canteen has bread today. One pound of food coupons can be exchanged for one pound of bread, and it's free. Do you think this is a pie in the sky?"

"Bread? Where does the bread come from?"

Old Zhang shook his head: "How should I know? Anyway, there is bread. I just went into the back kitchen and took a look. There were several boxes piled up. It looks like there are at least thousands of loaves of bread."

"So many?"

"That's right. This opportunity is rare. I must buy more."

"By the way, how does the bread taste? Have you eaten it?"

Zhou Jiaqing looked suspicious. Could it be that the quality of the bread is problematic, so it is sold so cheaply.

"I have eaten it, and it tastes okay. This time it is really a big bargain. If you don't believe it, go buy one and try it yourself!"

"Okay, then I'll go and see it." Zhou Jiaqing felt that what Old Zhang said was right. Seeing is believing.

When he came to the food window, many people were indeed rushing to buy bread, and they bought a large bag at a time, at least dozens of kilograms.

After waiting in line for five minutes, Zhou Jiaqing finally bought bread. The price was the same as what Lao Zhang said. One pound of food coupons was for two loaves of bread, which weighed exactly one pound in total.

Before he had time to taste it, Lao Zhang came in with his wife. The couple each held a big bag in their hands, and they immediately lined up at the end of the line.

"Lao Zhou, it tastes good, right!"

Zhou Jiaqing shook the bread in his hand, then took a big bite. The bread was fresh out of the oven, very fresh, not as bad as imagined.

And the more you chew, the sweeter it tastes, with a different flavor.

He secretly made up his mind: "Buy, you must buy more, and you'd be a fool not to buy."

Half an hour later, Zhou Jiaqing helped his daughter-in-law carry the bread back home. His eldest grandson, who had just turned seven, ran over, picked up a loaf of bread and stuffed it into his mouth.

"Qiqi, eat slowly, don't choke."

"Baji...Baji..."

Zhou Jiaqing poured a glass of water for his grandson, and then took a loaf of bread for his daughter-in-law: "Julie, you should try it too, it tastes good."

"Thank you, Dad!"

...

In a blink of an eye, time came to the end of the month.

In two days, the year 2023 of the Xia calendar will end, and the new year will begin soon.

Recently, the busiest person in the family is still Dad Xu. The bakery is unexpectedly popular, and it is very popular.

Perhaps it is a demonstration effect. After the First Hospital of Yanda University, several units have taken the initiative to come to the door. Dad Xu certainly accepts them all, and the scale of the bakery is expanding again and again.

Up to now, the daily output has exceeded 30,000, which not only meets the needs of all employees, but also has spare capacity for external sales.

In the evening, Xu Dong asked Chief Li for an hour's leave, and then drove to Jin Chang'an Building with Lao Fang and others.

Today, he had a sudden impulse and brought a baguette for lunch when he went out in the morning. Unexpectedly, his colleagues noticed it.

After some explanation!

Now, under everyone's unanimous request, he could only bring a few people to make large purchases. As for the food, he would make up for it later.

When he came to the first floor, it has now been completely transformed into a bakery. The original canteen has been moved to the second floor. For this reason, Xu's father rented another floor of office building.

"Master Ji, is the bread I want ready?" Xu Dong asked directly after entering the door.

Seeing that it was the "young master" who came, Master Ji immediately put down his work and greeted him with a warm face: "It's ready, freshly baked, a total of 200 kilograms, 400 loaves."

Of these, most of them belong to colleagues in the security department, and the other half are for dispatched workers. After all, baguettes are not rare things.

"Thank you for your hard work. This batch of bread will be recorded in my account, and I will make up for the food at the end of the month."

"Okay, I'll do as you say." Master Ji nodded quickly.

As it concerns food, the bakery’s accounts are very strictly managed. Even if he wanted to waive the bill for the other party, he did not have the power to do so.

Everyone was busy, Xu Dong and others picked up several large bags of bread and left the store.

As soon as he went out, an old lady immediately grabbed Xu Dong: "Young man, why are you cutting in line?"

It's no wonder that the old lady was angry. There was a line of dozens of meters outside the bakery. More importantly, the bread was not enough every day, and it was basically sold out.

Xu Dong and his group bought so many breads at once, which really caused great public outrage.

Before Xu Dong could answer, Lao Fang rushed to answer: "Old lady, we didn't cut in line. These breads were all reserved in advance."

"Reservation? When was it released? Why didn't I know that I could still make reservations?" The old lady looked surprised.

"Ahem..." Xu Dong coughed quickly, "Hello, old lady, this bakery is opened by our family, so I am eligible for reservations, please forgive me."

"Really?" The old lady expressed doubt.

At this time, a customer who just came out of the store took the initiative to help out:

"Auntie Hu, what they said is true. I just saw that Master Ji personally received them and sent them to the gate before leaving."

"Young man, what is your relationship with the boss of this bakery?" Auntie suddenly became enthusiastic.

Sister Feng took the opportunity to interrupt and said, "He is the boss's son."

"Young man, does your store have a membership card? Can you help me get one? I come to support you every day."

"I don't have a membership card yet, but I will definitely have one later. Don't worry, Auntie, maybe I will have it next month." Xu Dong responded.
