Lin Sanqi slowly closed the warehouse door tightly and put the lock on it.
Then he stood outside the door, holding an iron rod in his hand, pretending to guard the door very loyally and responsibly, as if he was very nervous.
In fact, I just acted to show the leaders of my work unit how conscientious and responsible I am in serving my work unit. After all, children who cry in the workplace have milk to drink.
You must know that the warehouse assigned to Lin Sanqi by Dean Shen is in the corner of the train station. Not many people usually pass by. How can a thief dare to come to the train station to steal things? There are garrison guards here, and the warehouse of the Digital Hospital is next door.
Half an hour later, the sound of trucks rumbled from far away to near. A small jeep rushed out first and drove in front of Lin Sanqi at a sprint speed of 100 meters, slamming on the brakes.
Before the car stopped, Dean Shen was the first to rush down and grabbed Lin Sanqi's hand: "Are the supplies all there?"
Lin Sanqi felt that the scene in front of her was like a spy war drama of the Republic of China. A group of military commanders came to arrest Japanese spies. Dean Shen was the acting boss of the military commander.
Lin Sanqi also got up and said softly:
"Don't worry, Director, I've locked them all in the room, no one can escape!"
Dean Shen was stunned for a moment, then slapped Lin Sanqi on the head: "You are the director of the department? I am the dean. Hurry up and open the warehouse door."
Four large trucks from behind also arrived in time, and more than 30 young workers got out of the trucks, many of them holding sticks and shovels in their hands.
Lin Sanqi saw that everyone was here, so she took out the key and opened the heavy warehouse door with everyone's expectant eyes.
"Wow~~~"
Before everyone entered, there was a cry of exclamation, because walls of pork were built in front of them. Now everyone knew that the Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital was going to have a bumper harvest today.
Lin Sanqi, like the tour guide, started to show off with more than 30 people:
"Dean Shen, Section Chief, Section Chief Kong, and colleagues, there are 24 fans of pork here, totaling about 2,500 kilograms. On average, each employee can get 5 kilograms of pork. How do you like it? Are you satisfied?"< br>
Dean Shen was not afraid to step out of his way and personally carried a fan of pork to check the quality of the pork.
"Okay, okay, okay, fat enough. Look at this fat layer, it's five fingers thick, haha, and it's not war-ready pork, it's all fresh. Lin Sanqi, you are simply amazing."
Everyone in the warehouse laughed loudly after hearing this. Big fat meat is always the favorite thing of ordinary people in this era.
Speaking of these 24 big fat fans, Lin Sanqi actually spent a lot of thought on them.
In 2023, when people buy pork, they prefer to buy lean meat. Fatty meat is not popular in the market because fat meat is unhealthy.
The market likes lean meat, so the farms naturally have a way to turn pork into mainly lean meat. It is so magical that the farmers smile and say nothing while holding the "clenbuterol".
If you want to buy fat meat, it is not available in professional breeding farms. Lin Sanqi drove to Qingyuan to purchase "domestic pigs".
Domestic pigs are fat enough, but Lin Sanqi doesn't know whether they are fed from feed. He only knows that the fatter the pork, the better.
A total of 2,500 kilograms of pork cost him more than 50,000 yuan. The reason is that the wholesale price of domestically raised pork is more expensive.
Lin Sanqi pointed to the sack next to him and said:
"What's inside is rice, a total of 4,500 kilograms. The plan is that each employee can get 10 kilograms of rice. Unfortunately, I didn't get the flour."
It was not that flour was unavailable, but flour bags were not suitable for sacks. If all cloth bags were used, others would be suspicious, so Lin Sanqi simply purchased rice. Anyway, northerners like to cook rice porridge.
The head of the department couldn't wait to open a sack, revealing the white rice inside. He held it in his hand and was extremely excited:
"It's really rice. Wow, it's new rice from Northeast China. Look at it, Dean."
Dean Shen was also excited. He put down the pork and picked up the rice, laughing excitedly:
"Okay, okay, there is pork and rice. Our employees of the Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital can have a good year this year. I want to ask the entire capital, or even the entire country, which unit is as arrogant as us?"
Dean Shen was so excited that his hands shook and he accidentally spilled a handful of rice.
"Oh, damn it, damn it."
Dean Shen quickly squatted down and picked up the rice grains on the ground one by one. The head of the department next to him also squatted down immediately when he saw it.
Lin Sanqi thought that some grain might fall out of his rice shop, but he never cared about it. He usually had to wait until night before sweeping up and throwing it into the trash can.
Now I see the chief of the dean of Changtang University still looking for a few grains of rice on the ground, pouting his butt and lowering his head to search carefully, wishing to find every grain of rice in the gaps, I feel quite emotional.
Only those who have experienced famine will truly understand food.
What's the point of just shaking your head and memorizing "Compassion for the Peasants"? It would be more meaningful to send all the students to the countryside to farm.
When all the rice was picked up, Dean Shen wiped his hands on his cotton-padded clothes with confidence and looked to the side again:
"Xiao Qi, what else is here?"
"Dean Shen, here are radishes. I bought them at 20 kilograms per person. There are also melon seeds and peanuts, which can be divided into 5 kilograms per person on average. This is red dates, and I bought them at 2 kilograms per person. Oh, and two cans of yellow peaches per person. "And canned yellow peaches?"
More than thirty people exclaimed in unison, as if they saw ginseng fruit, and they all shouted and ran towards the canned area.
Lin Sanqi was a little stunned, "No, why are you so excited? Isn't it just a canned fruit?"
Lin Sanqi checked on the computer in 2023 and said that northerners particularly like to eat canned fruits, among which canned yellow peaches are the best. Many friends in the north even use canned yellow peaches as a panacea.
If you have a fever, take one can. If you have no appetite, take one can. If you have diarrhea, take one can. All diseases can be cured by yellow peach can.
So in order to cater to the preferences of northern workers, Lin Sanqi went to a rural cannery to order 2,000 bottles of canned yellow peaches, and asked not to put labels on them.
1,000 bottles were given to the hospital, and 1,000 bottles were kept for myself as gifts.
It stands to reason that everyone in the north likes canned food, so they should be used to canned fruit, right? Why are everyone more excited now when they see canned peaches than pork?
In fact, Lin Sanqi checked the wrong era.
What he checked was in the 1980s and 1990s. As supplies became more and more abundant after the reform and opening up, the domestic canned production value also reached the first place in the world. Therefore, ordinary people can also enjoy canned fruits, and they usually visit relatives and friends to visit patients. Carry a few.
But in 1960, canned fruits were rare and high-end goods, even rarer than canned beef and dace.
In the northern dialect, it would give you face if you take it out, which caused everyone to exclaim, just like a monkey seeing Huaguo Mountain.
Dean Shen also happily patted Lin Sanqi on the shoulder:
"Okay, okay, boy, you did a good job. You can get so many supplies for 30,000 yuan. I saw you right, hahaha."
If you use the 30,000 yuan in 1959 to buy these supplies, it is indeed more than enough. After all, pork only costs 70.3 cents a pound with a voucher, and 5 pounds of pork theoretically only costs 4 yuan.
Canned yellow peaches are more expensive. You can buy them in department stores for only 50 cents per can and 1 yuan for two cans.
With 30,000 yuan and 442 employees, the average budget per employee reaches 68 yuan. We can definitely add dozens of kilograms of pork and dozens of cans.
But that’s not how money is calculated. What’s in front is the white market price, but in Lin Sanyi’s case, it’s the black market price. Pork on the black market costs 10 yuan a pound, and canned food costs 15 yuan a piece.
This budget has been completely spent.
In addition, there are 10 kilograms of rice, 5 kilograms of melon seeds, 5 kilograms of peanuts, 2 kilograms of red dates, and 20 kilograms of radishes. These scarce supplies are also not cheap and difficult to buy with money.
Lin Sanqi didn't know if Dean Shen meant this as a test, but he obviously couldn't just accept the merit. He couldn't have the intention of harming others, and he couldn't have the intention of guarding against others.
Otherwise, Dean Shen would guess that he had such a "smuggling" channel, and he might be able to figure out how much money he had embezzled from it.
Although he did steal a lot of cash and ginseng, he couldn't admit it even to death.
Crying children have milk to drink, so Lin Sanqi is ready to "cry" for a while.
"Dean Shen, Uncle Shen, I really vomited blood in order to get these supplies this time. I searched almost all the connections and traveled all over the provinces of Beijing, Tianjin, Hebei and Inner Mongolia. Not only did you put my face on it, you approved 30,000 yuan is not enough.”
Dean Shen raised his brows, thinking that his temptation seemed to have failed.
How much is this batch of materials worth? In fact, the prices are all transparent. Not to mention the store prices, in fact, ordinary people also know the prices on the black market.
So while Dean Shen was excited, he had already been secretly evaluating the prices of these materials.
Firstly, I want to see if Lin Sanqi is greedy for money. Secondly, I also want to know how powerful Lin Sanqi is.
If Lin Sanqi can buy so many materials at a default price of 30,000 yuan, and can obtain large quantities of goods at extremely low prices, this shows that Lin Sanqi's black market power far exceeds his imagination.
So what does this mean? Representative Lin Sanqi either knows a certain big boss and has a relatively close relationship, so he can get goods in large quantities at low prices.
Either he has overseas connections and this batch of materials was smuggled in, so it is obvious that the people behind him who provided him with financial and material support are most likely the people on the island.
Then it can be indirectly tested that Lin Sanqi may really be a latent spy, at least this is a possibility.
Now Lin Sanqi suddenly complained, which made Dean Shen feel relieved. It seemed that Lin Sanqi only had connections, and the price had to be based on the market price, so his energy was limited.
After the test, Dean Shen's face did not change, and he still smiled and said:
"Okay, okay, how much money is still missing? Just tell me the amount and I will replenish it for you. You will never suffer any loss."
Lin Sanqi asked in a low voice: "My friends said, if you don't want money, you need wild ginseng..." (End of Chapter)
