As soon as this was said, the family members laughed.
By the time we finished eating, the day had been spent perfectly.
"By the way, Mom, do we have enough food at home?"
Li Ming remembered that he hadn't delivered food to his family for a while, and suddenly remembered it when he looked at his locker.
Mother Li pondered for a while, "I have enough grain and vegetables, and I can go to the grain store to buy some more later. Although I don't buy enough grain, we have plenty of grain at home, so we can basically eat normally."
"It's your father's delicious meat. We don't have much of it at home. We basically have more bacon now. When we were stocking up some time ago, we didn't get much fresh meat. If you have a way, you can get some fresh meat. The weather is pretty good now."
After listening to what Li's mother said, Li Ming nodded, "It would be great if our neighbors in the courtyard save trouble. If we put it in a big tank outside, we can save a lot of time."
Father Li pursed his lips, "You're counting on them? Why don't you just hope that the sow can climb the tree!"
"But we can keep it in the old house. If we keep it in the old house, we can keep it for two more days."
"That's okay, I just happened to come across a suitable pork here recently. I'll go check it out tomorrow and get some back." Comrade Li Ming made an excuse for himself.
"Get more! If it's not enough, I'll take the money from your father!"
Father Li looked happy and seemed to have ignored the fact that he had inadvertently exposed the small treasury.
Mother Li had no intention of searching this time. After all, it had not been long since the last time, so the small treasury had to be well maintained, right? Sustainable development!
"No, I basically haven't spent much on expenses, and I have saved a lot. It must be enough." Li Ming smiled and shook his head, "But I can't bring it back in the daytime, even though the opposite door is here occasionally. Buy some food, but it’s just food, who knows if this old man will go crazy when he sees meat!”
Father Li rubbed his chin, "Then let's do it tonight. I'll block Yan Laoxi'er for you tonight, so hurry up and bring the meat in!"
"Okay. If I can get more this time, I guess I can eat for a long time."
Li Ming was very satisfied with this family meeting. If there was a suitable excuse to bring some food to the family, he would bring more to save trouble next time.
I estimate that a hundred and eighty yuan worth of meat would be enough, and it would probably weigh about sixty or seventy kilograms.
Li Ming mentally calculated the specific weight and walked to the second bedroom, ready to have a good sleep. After all, he had to fish tomorrow, right?
. . . . . .
The next day.
The three-stock office of the rolling mill.
After lunch, all the salted fish sat in their offices and used them as chimneys, and there was smoke in the library!
Li Ming took a look around these "cute" colleagues and prepared to share the pork thing with them. After all, the relationship between colleagues needed to be maintained, and these colleagues had helped Li Ming a lot before.
Now is a good time to reciprocate a favor. The most important thing is that you can also make a little money. Although Mr. Li is not short of money now, a little can make a lot of money!
"I have a way here that can give our brothers some meat, but I don't know if they have any ideas?"
? ? ? ? ? ?
"What?"
"Meat?"
"I have an idea!"
"Is there a way?"
Li Ming smiled and nodded, "This is someone I met in the countryside before. Yesterday, he sent me a message that one of the pigs at home was missing, so..."
"No problem, Akiko, what's the price?"
Xu Qiang moved a stool and sat in front of Li Ming, and started greeting the others, "What are you doing standing there in a daze? Hurry and prepare hot tea for our Mingzi, and get me a good cigarette!"
The other four salted fishes laughed and had no objections. Each of them was as nimble as the big catfish that was jumping around. They were taken care of by Li Ming in a short while.
"The price over there is just like the black market price, boneless and skinless, one dollar for five pounds per pound!"
"That's it, you look like you're one of our own. Damn it, last time I went to the black market, all the stupid people with bones opened their mouths to me and asked for more than one piece!"
Zhou Tian started to curse again with a face on his face. It seemed that he was stimulated in the black market last time.
"Okay, no one will listen to you now. Hurry up and estimate how much meat you need at home. Give Akiko the number!"
Xu Qiang pressed Zhou Tian and started shouting, "Mingzi, your brother, I don't need twenty pounds. As you know, my brother also has a little cotton-padded jacket at home!"
"No problem, this pigman cut half of it for me. It weighs almost 120 pounds, which is enough!"
Wu Gang looked embarrassed, "Then can I weigh twenty pounds?"
"What's wrong with this?"
"Hey, Old Wu, isn't this the thread you pulled? Do you plan to buy more?" Zheng Ping directly told the truth.
Li Ming smiled and took a sip to see if these colleagues were much better than the beasts in the courtyard.
"Brothers, don't worry. We have a lot of meat. I can make twenty kilograms, which is enough."
"Okay, brothers, each weighs twenty pounds. When you're done, you can bury this matter in my belly. Can you do that?"
Xu Qiang made a decision directly and showed the momentum of a unit chief.
"No problem!"*4.
Let’s not talk about whether the salted fish in Sangu have money. At this time, if you can get some meat, you have to borrow money! Especially since the Chinese New Year is coming soon, everyone must have a good meal. Although this pork cannot be used for the Chinese New Year, it is okay to celebrate the New Year in advance!
What's more, none of these salted fish in Sangu are short of money! Recently, grain harvesting has started in the Bada Hutongs, and every LSP is reluctant to go there. They have saved enough money in their pockets, but if they can't pay for this little meat, it will be a shame!
"Okay, let's do this. I'll get the meat tonight, and I'll wait in the alley opposite our courtyard for a few nights. I'll take it over to you when I'm done with it."
"But you also know that there are many talented people in our courtyard, so avoid them when you go there, otherwise these bastards will definitely find trouble with me!"
"Bleach, let them try! Brothers chopped him up!"
Zhou Tian rushed up with a bad temper, but was pinned down by his unit chief again, "Young master is causing trouble for Mingzi. We can punish them, but Mingzi still has to live in the courtyard!"
"Brothers, you are safe!" Wang Jun agreed.
"Okay then." Zhou Tian pursed his lips, and for the sake of Rourou, he endured it this time. Damn it, next time these beasts in their courtyard have fun again, he, old Zhou, must let them know, rolling steel Didn’t the name of factory loudmouth come for nothing?
"Okay, Mingzi, I remember this time, haha, or you have to count on us Mingzi!"
Chief Xu expressed his gratitude very quickly. They already had a good relationship. Then he pointed his gun at a few salted fishes and said, "Damn it, look at each of you. You can't do anything, and you can't eat anything." Leftover stuff!”
