In the afternoon, Li’s house in the front yard.
Sister Li Rui also just shared with Father Li and Mother Li who had returned from a shopping trip about He Yuzhu's blind date in the courtyard today, and also told him about He Yuzhu's brainwashing.
"Look at it, let me just say that this stupid pillar is really stupid!"
Father Li pursed his lips, looking as if he regretted not being able to see the big show in the courtyard today.
Mother Li rolled her eyes at Comrade Li Weiguo, "When did you say that? Why haven't I heard of it?"
"Hey, why do you care about so many details!"
Father Li looked embarrassed and quickly dismissed the topic, "I can see that things nowadays are getting harder and harder to buy."
"Your mother and I had to wait in line for a long time to buy two bars of soap today. Not many people bought these before."
Comrade Li Weiguo held up a few pieces of soap and put them on the sink and muttered. Although his ability to change the topic was a bit awkward, there was no doubt that it was quite effective.
At least the Queen Mother of the Li family agrees.
Li Ming took a look, "Youth Brand Soap", a very famous style these days. The most important thing is that it is affordable and suitable for mass consumption.
But there are really not many people using this thing now. You have to queue up to even buy a bar of soap in department stores. It is probably because of the tight supply of food.
If it doesn't work tonight, I still have to go to Wang Da Wang Er's place. Although it's not time to collect the money, I still have to go and ask. After all, next year is about to be the first year, so this is still a little bit... I'm worried.
It would be great if the business of the few of them could get a few more big customers. I wonder if these three people have met any rich "old people and young people."
"It doesn't have much to do with our family. At least the things we stock at home should be the largest in the courtyard."
Mother Li said with a smile, thanks to the fact that their family had started making preparations a long time ago, and Li Ming came back with surprises from time to time, if the Li family saved food, they could last until the end of next year.
So now the only people in the courtyard who don't have to worry about food are the Li family in the front yard and the He family in the middle courtyard.
He Yuzhu is just a cook who can't starve to death in a famine year. At worst, he works in a rolling steel mill. As long as he is not discovered, that's fine.
But now Silly Zhu has been targeted by Li Ming for a long time. When the famine comes next year, he will find an opportunity to deal with He Yuzhu, this second fool.
. . . . . .
After dinner, the four members of the Li family sat on chairs to eat. Each person held a cup of hot water in his hand. Father Li also threw some crackers. It was a good little day.
Li Ming rubbed his belly and said, "Mom, I'm going for a walk to eat."
Mother Li had no doubt about this and waved her hand, "Go ahead and pay attention to safety on the road."
Their son has become a habit of going out for a walk when he is full, and no one in the Li family has ever suspected it.
Just now, Li Ming obviously ate too much at the dinner table. Now it is normal for him to go out for a walk!
After receiving the consent of his Queen Mother, Comrade Li Ming slowly stood up from his chair and walked outside. Being able to eat enough now is also a kind of happiness, isn't it?
Although with Li Ming's strong physique, this feeling of being overstuffed has long since disappeared, but when it's time to pretend, you still have to pretend!
. . . . . .
Baishun Hutong, home of the Wang brothers.
"Dong dong."
As Li Ming knocked on the door, the three people in the Wang family looked at each other.
"Brother Wang, is today the time for Brother Ming to come here?" It was the first time for MCA to experience this kind of thing, especially when it was reselling food in Pigeon Market. Now MCA was frightened by this voice and almost became a frightened bird.
Wang Da looked calm when he saw this, "No, but Brother Ming will come suddenly sometimes, and every time there is something more important, so don't worry."
Then he turned to Wang Er and said, "Second brother, go open the door. Brother Ming should be here."
"Okay." Wang Er got up from the chair, patted his buttocks and walked out. The three brothers happened to not go to the black market to sell grain today, mainly because they had sold a lot recently. They planned to take inventory tonight.
After a while, Wang Er came in with Li Ming.
Ma Hua stood up with excitement, "Master!"
"Okay, don't be so polite. I came here today because I have something to do, so I'll sit down first." Li Ming waved his hand to Ma Hua, indicating that he should sit down first.
Then he looked at Wang Da, "How have you been these days?"
Wang Da was also excited at this time. After all, he made more money in the past two days than in the previous half month. "Brother, the price of food on the black market has skyrocketed recently. The brothers have made more money in two days." It’s a lot better than the previous half month.”
Li Ming nodded thoughtfully, "It's good to make money. Now there is less and less food on the market, and as the Chinese New Year is approaching, it is normal for the price of food on the black market to rise."
"But how have you three been doing recently? You haven't been watched by anyone, have you?"
Wang Da shook his head firmly, "Brother, don't worry. The three of us have followed your previous request. We did not go to the black market at a fixed time. Moreover, the three of us took turns watching us when we came back. Don't worry. Bar."
Only then did Li Ming put a smile on his face. He could make endless money, but there were not many useful subordinates. He would feel bad if he lost his money.
"That's not bad. Remember, we can make less money, but you people must ensure safety. Do you understand?"
The three of them all knew Li Ming's request and nodded in agreement.
Li Ming was satisfied and gave each of the three a cigarette. "In recent times, you have gone to the black market less frequently, and the frequency has been reduced by half. Then the food sold each time has been reduced by half. Don't ask why, just follow what I said." Can we do it?"
"It can be done."*3.
"Don't worry, I'm not doing this to trick you. The Chinese New Year is coming soon. You guys have made a lot of money recently, right?"
Li Ming looked around at the three people, and all of them had the word "very satisfied" written on their faces and were looking silly on the side.
"Since it's okay to make money, the investigation may be strict during this period, so I'd rather make less, or even make no money, but people can't make problems!"
"clear."
"Don't worry, Brother Ming."
"I understand, Master."
Li Ming is really satisfied with these three men. After all, fully automatic money-making tools are very rare!
"That's all I'm here for this time. You just need to remember it. But when I see you, I remember something else. It just so happens that I can discuss it with you three brothers today."
