There are regulations at the breakfast stall today. Each person can buy 5 buns. For any more, food stamps will be charged.
Okay, Ma Teng can only buy 5.
It seems that the situation is not too serious, otherwise it would be another situation.
When we arrived at the factory, Ma Teng arrived a little late today, but he obviously felt that the atmosphere was not the same as before, but a bit desolate.
"Mr. Ma, you're here." Wang Qinglin saw Ma Teng coming in and quickly stepped forward to say hello.
"Well, here we are, what's going on today? I feel like I've lost my soul." Ma Teng asked.
"What's the matter? Food is a big deal, but our electricians are classified as heavy manual workers. It's not bad and the deductions aren't much. But the light workers originally only had 36 kilograms, but now they only have 32 kilograms. What's more? It’s all about the chores that take care of the family. I’m usually 7 points full, but this time it’s reduced and it’s completely 4 points full.”
"I asked you to buy food. Did you buy it?" Ma Teng asked.
"I bought it at home, but it was more than twice as expensive as usual, 8 cents a pound, not much, I only bought 60 pounds.
Dried sweet potatoes cost 13 cents, which is a lot, so I bought 300 kilograms.
I don't know about the others. Zhang Liang said softly.
"Okay, just keep it a secret."
"This... Brother Ma, I told Mei Lin." After speaking, he lowered his head.
"Hold the grass... Okay, just say it, there are not many fools. Look, it has only been a long time since the quota was reduced, and the price of food has almost doubled.
No matter what happens in the future, Liangzi, quietly tell us how much money you have to buy as much food as you have, and just listen to me if you believe me. " Ma Teng patted him on the shoulder.
"Still buying? Brother Ma, my family has enough food to last until the New Year."
"New Year? You won't eat after the New Year?"
"You mean..."
"Stop it, I didn't say anything." Ma Teng didn't want to talk about this topic anymore.
This topic is of a semi-national nature, and Ma Teng's energy is too low to discuss it.
During the morning inspection, Ma Teng hardly needed to go. Three level 3 workers took the people there.
Ma Teng stayed behind.
Just as I was sitting there, reading a book to cover it up, there were some seeds of various types in the space, some mixed together. I didn’t know what they were, so I picked a piece and scattered it on the ground.
A group of chickens are quite happy here, running around everywhere.
But not too far away from the water source.
Ma Teng thought, if chickens can be raised, then other things can also be raised.
Ma Teng looked at a few wild boars in the still space, but they couldn't be released yet. They could only be released later when there was more food in the space.
During this period, some more domestic pigs, cattle and sheep will be collected.
After a while it was noon.
Since Ma Teng didn't bring any food today, he ate in the cafeteria.
Silly Zhu was anxious about Ma Teng, but he had no choice but did not dare to make trouble. He used to be a third-level electrician at the dock, and Silly Zhu had nothing to do with Ma Teng.
Now that Ma Teng is a seventh-level electrician, there is nothing he can do.
There was no good rice today, just meat scraps with cabbage, shredded potatoes, braised potato cubes, and cabbage vermicelli.
As for pure meat dishes, sorry, no.
Ma Teng ordered a piece of cabbage and shredded potatoes.
Under Ma Teng's gaze, Silly Zhu really didn't dare shake the spoon.
It's nothing, it's all because of other people's habits. Combine a few people and drag the fool out and give him a good beating. You will see if he will be honest next time.
In a word, there is still no unity and everyone cares about his own things.
Even if they are united, they are just gathering together to bully other weak people. It has been a common problem for thousands of years and cannot be changed.
To be honest, the food is just like this. Anyone who has eaten in modern restaurants in this era will think that this dish is average.
Ma Teng didn't choose. He held the lunch box and started eating. However, while eating, there would be a piece of pork head or braised large intestine in the bowl from time to time.
The afternoon was as usual, and Ma Teng was still looking after the house.
In fact, Ma Teng is a level 7 electrician, and he is not needed for ordinary trivial matters.
But who is willing to drive out the Level 7 electrician?
Nothing to do all afternoon.
I just roasted a handful of peanuts and walnuts, and I wanted to roast sweet potatoes. I thought it was a bit high-profile, so I didn't take it out.
You can say that you brought small things like peanuts and walnuts to the factory in your pocket, but you can't say that you brought a big sweet potato in your pocket.
You should keep a low profile. If you want to eat, you can find a small bag and put some in it tomorrow.
Soon the bell rang.
Ma Teng said hello to a few people, took the lead and rode out.
Since the association was established, the electrician team and the drawing room have had more interactions.
Zhang Gong and Xugong didn't stop them, and they even encouraged them.
Only by combining well can we... well, make greater contributions to the country. According to XCMG, this is called a strong alliance.
"Pony is back."
As soon as Ma Teng arrived at the door, the person who came out to greet him was definitely Yan Bugui. Not only did he greet Ma Teng, but he also looked at everyone who came back.
Even if you pick up a green onion, you will not lose everything in one night. As long as there is income, it is a happy day.
"Third uncle, it's already been like this, and you still do this. It's not easy for everyone." Ma Teng carried the car into the yard, leaving the third uncle at the door, deep in thought.
When I got home, I looked at the original chicken coop and felt that the three chickens were a little pitiful. I waved my hand and took these chickens into the space. If anyone asked, just say that the chickens were in the coop. At worst, I could go to the chicken coop and get out of the space. Catch one out.
Let’s have something simple for dinner, braised pork ribs in a casserole.
5. Wash the rice, chop 5 ribs, throw it into a casserole, mince some green onion, ginger and garlic, and then add some Liubiju soy sauce.
Add a cup of Maotai to remove the fishy smell, cover with a lid, and turn to low heat directly after boiling.
The fragrance is not very strong, but the taste is very beautiful.
For more than 40 minutes in total, Ma Teng entered the house carrying a casserole and sniffing.
It is said that the smell is not very strong, but when you smell it up close, the smell is still fragrant. I pulled two corianders from the space, crushed them directly and threw them on top of the rice.
The fragrance has been directly upgraded to another level.
Let me have a plate of small pickles, which are delicious. I will have to wait until Sunday for these Liubiju. I have to go there again. I can buy as much as I want.
While Ma Teng was enjoying his meal, there was a knock on the door.
"Who is it?"
"Brother Ma Teng, the three uncles have informed us to come out for a meeting."
This is Yan Jiecheng's voice. A meeting? What meeting?
The toilet thought for a while and thought about Jia Zhang's hanging this morning. It is probably related to this matter.
Regardless of whether they are waiting in a hurry or not, they have to finish their meal first.
Ma Teng returned to the house and finished his meal.
He wiped his mouth and took a sip of tea.
It's a bit hot, so I might as well go out with the teapot.
Carrying a small stool in one hand and a teapot in the other, Ma Teng staggered out of his yard.
I can't find anything else, so I just make do with this.
At the main table, Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui were both shrinking, and only Yi Zhonghai was looking back and forth at the crowd to see who wasn't coming.
He caught sight of Ma Teng at a glance and couldn't look at him. He became very angry at the first sight.
He quickly glanced to one side, but on the other side was Jia Zhang, sitting on a stool with his head lowered, wondering what he was thinking.
This is even more disturbing.
What should I do if my apprentice doesn't have enough to eat? The first thing Yi Zhonghai thinks of is to ask the people in the courtyard to do good deeds to improve his own standards.
The whole hospital does not include my own family, nor does it include the Jia family, well... Yanbu's family can be less.
The old lady certainly can’t be counted.
There are still more than a dozen households, and each family is given three to five kilograms of stick noodles. Of course, white noodles are better, so the Jia family can support them for a while.
I have already thought of a name for this fundraiser. Who made Jia Zhang make such a big noise this morning? Everyone in the courtyard knows it. If anyone doesn't reach out, it means he has no sympathy. Then everyone can resist him together and let He is getting out of the compound.
Thinking of this, Yi Zhonghai glanced at Ma Teng.
Ma Teng, on the other hand, looked indifferent. He took out a few peanuts from his pocket, wrapped them carefully, and ate them very carefully.
This made Yi Zhonghai's forehead twitch twice again.
After suppressing his anger, he saw that everyone was coming. He knocked on the table with the teapot and stood up. In the past, it was Liu Haizhong's words at the beginning. Today's matter was more important. Yi Zhonghai didn't want Liu Haizhong to get sidetracked.
So I can only control the overall situation by myself.
After the table was knocked, the whole place, which had been chattering just now, immediately fell silent.
"Ahem... All the young and old men in the compound, I think everyone knows the purpose of holding this meeting today.
I don’t want to say more nonsense. After all, every family has its own scandals. These are scars. Can we not expose them? It’s better not to expose them to save face so that we can meet each other in the future.
As we all know, the state has reduced the food rations for each person by 4 pounds on average.
Don't talk about you, I'm worried about not having enough to eat.
But, if we try to make up for it, we can still deal with it. There is a family in our compound. Maybe everyone has guessed it. Yes, it is the Jia family. Only Dongxu has rations. There are 5 people in the family. Now there is a ration. It has decreased again, and their family really can no longer survive, which is why what happened this morning happened. "After Yi Zhonghai finished speaking, he picked up the teapot, took a sip, and glanced at the whole audience, who were all thinking, what a good opportunity.
But just as he was about to speak, he was interrupted by an untimely voice.
