Chapter 288: Conference, getting busier at this time
"What are you two talking about?" Ye Xin came in from outside and asked.
"Jiayi said that the evening meeting was about restoring rationing." Li Aimin said with a smile.
"Ah! Really?" Ye Xin looked at Li Jiayi and asked.
"It should be, except for this, there is nothing worth having a meeting to resolve."
Now is not the time when we had uncles. At that time, even a trivial matter would require a meeting.
Since the hospital lost its uncle, there have not been as many meetings in a year as there were in the previous month.
Moreover, when meetings are held now, they are only held when the street office has something to notify. Regarding matters in the courtyard, there has never been a meeting.
"Okay, forget about it, go wash your hands and eat." Ye Xin said.
“Oh!”
Li Jiayi agreed, came out of the house, and washed his hands by the sink.
When he returned to the house, the food had been placed and he sat down and started eating.
After eating, no one, whether it was Ye Xin or Li Aimin, wanted to move. He knew that he could only go to the meeting.
But this time Li Jiayi didn’t have peanuts and melon seeds, Lingcha water, or even a stool.
Because he knows very well that this meeting will not last long and may end in a few minutes. After all, there are so many yards in the whole street, and they have to be notified. If the meeting lasts for a long time, only the street office will have so many people. You may not be busy in a month.
When Li Jiayi came out of the Moon Gate, he happened to meet Liao Kai coming out carrying a bench.
"Uncle Liao, why are you bringing a stool out again! This meeting can't last more than a few minutes."
"Ah! Is it true?" Liao Kai asked in disbelief. .
“Of course it’s true, it will probably be over in three to five minutes.” Li Jiayi shrugged and said.
"Then I'll put the stool back, and you wait for me first."
"Yeah!"
Liao Kai hurriedly took the stool home, and Li Jiayi stood beside the moon door leading to the middle courtyard and waited.
In less than a minute, Liao Kai ran out and said: "Let's go and see what kind of meeting is going on."
"What else can we do? Let's resume rationing."
"Uh! Jiayi, are you telling the truth?" Liao Kai turned his head and looked at him and asked.
"Well! There won't be anything else but this."
"Okay!"
When the two people came to the middle courtyard, there were already many people sitting with benches or chairs. .
The two of them did not move forward, but directly found a wall and leaned against the wall to wait.
"Come and add one." Liao Kai took out a handful of peanuts from his pocket and gave half of them to Li Jiayi.
"Hey, Uncle Liao, how does this look like my peanuts?"
"Don't doubt it, just remove the question mark." Liao Kai was not embarrassed at all.
"Uh! Okay!"
Soon everyone in the courtyard arrived, basically one person from each family. As for the other people, most of them were probably already lying on the bed.
After all, if you don’t move, you won’t be so hungry, and you won’t know you are hungry even after you fall asleep.
That's it now, basically after dinner, if there's nothing else, everyone goes to bed early.
It can be said that we can’t move if we can.
The people from the street office don’t know when they will come, after all, they still have to notify other hospitals.
Fortunately, he didn't have to wait long. In less than ten minutes, Li Jiayi saw Officer Niu coming in from outside.
Yes, the person who came to their hospital today to inform them was Director Niu. It can be said that all the sub-district offices were dispersed to inform the policy.
After Officer Niu came in, he walked directly to the Eight Immortals table and said directly without a word of nonsense: "This meeting today is actually to inform everyone that starting from next month, everyone will resume their rations. In addition, don't forget, take The household registration book should go to the grain station to apply for the grain book again. "
Although it is said that food stamps should be used in the future, the imperial capital prepares the grain book to be resumed.
"Officer Niu, do you mean that the rationing has been restored?" A resident asked again, perhaps suspecting that he had heard wrongly.
"Yes, but starting from next month, again, don't forget to apply for the grain book, otherwise you can't blame me for not being able to buy grain next month."
"No, no, I will go and apply for the grain book tomorrow."
The three-year difficult period is over, and the grain budget has begun to be used again.
"Okay, the notification has arrived, I will leave first, and I have to go to Courtyard No. 6 to notify."
As soon as Director Niu left Courtyard No. 7, the whole courtyard suddenly started to rejoice. , everyone jumped up and down happily.
"Oh, plus one! You said the rationing would be restored, why not start from this month?" Liao Kai shook his head and asked.
"Uncle Liao, the grain has not been harvested yet! You must know that summer grain is basically harvested this month. If the ration is restored now, where will the grain come from!"
"Uh! That's right." Liao Kai nodded.
“The other thing is that you need to restore the use of the grain book. You should know this. It cannot be used in the month of application. It cannot be used until the next month.”
“So that’s it. !”
“Let’s go back, Uncle Liao, let’s make them happy”
To be honest, whether the ration is restored or not has nothing to do with Li Jiayi, including Liao Kai. Same.
After all, they were not short of food, and they even refused to eat many of the rations issued.
"Hey, Uncle Liao, aren't you going home?" Li Jiayi asked, looking at Liao Kai who came to Dongkua Yard with him. "It's still early, I'm going to have tea with your dad."
Li Jiayi curled his lips and said, "I think you're here to have some tea!"
< br>"You kid, don't you know if you see through it and don't tell it?"
Li Jiayi shook his head and said: "I don't know."
Of course, he was joking. It was not the first time that Liao Kai came to have tea. How could he not know.
"Come back? Is it about restoring rations?" Li Aimin asked as soon as the two entered the room.
"Yes, Brother Li." Liao Kai said.
“This kid is really right.” Li Aimin took an enamel jar and poured an enamel jar of tea for Liao Kai.
"That's when did Jiayi say he missed it!" Liao Kai said.
Li Jiayi also sat down and drank tea for a while, and then went upstairs.
Li Aimin and Liao Kai were the only two people downstairs who continued to drink. He couldn't control how long they drank.
Upstairs, Li Jia entered the room, locked the door, and entered the space.
It was still the same process for tomorrow. After completing the process, he came to the living room and started to translate the information.
This is not the first batch! The first batch of translations has been completed long ago, and Li Jiayi was paid more than 600 yuan.
Yes, the first batch contains more than 1.2 million words.
This batch was more than the previous batch, mainly because Li Jiayi translated quickly and well, so Teacher Wang gave him some more.
Mr. Wang translated all the more professional ones, leaving some simpler ones to him.
Li Jiayi doesn’t care!
For him, getting money on the surface is more important than anything else.
It is now June, and their school vacation is not far away.
The holidays for technical secondary schools are similar to those for universities. They have holidays on the 10s of June every year, much earlier than elementary schools, junior high schools and high schools.
Li Jiayi is now thinking about what to do after the holiday.
This summer, he has no plans to sell juice. There is no need.
Time passed day by day, and Li Jiayi originally thought that the rationing would be restored next month, and the demand for food on the black market would be reduced.
But this is not the case. The demand for grain and meat on the black market has not decreased, but has increased a lot.
When this happened, Li Jiayi quickly understood what was going on.
In the past, no one dared to buy more snacks and meat because no one knew when the food shortage would end.
Always leave some money for emergencies!
Now it is announced that rationing will be restored next month. Everyone knows that rationing will be restored next month, so what are you doing with so much money?
So you have to eat well this month and don’t starve yourself.
There are many people with this idea, so the black market not only increases the purchase volume, but also the price rises instead of falling.
Of course, Li Jiayi did not increase the price, and still supplied food and meat to the black market at the previous price. As for how to sell it on the black market, it had nothing to do with him.
Not only the black market, but also the woolen mills and bakeries have all increased their purchases.
This left Li Jiayi speechless, because he didn't have much meat in the space now, especially adult wild boars.
Not much is not much, but it is still okay to only supply woolen mills and bakeries.
The same is true for Master Wu. They have also increased their purchases. But what makes Li Jiayi speechless is that these people no longer trade antiques for him, but all use large and small yellow croakers.
It’s not that these people don’t have any large and small yellow croakers in their hands, they just want to keep some for themselves. You must know that these large and small yellow croakers are hard currency.
During the three-year difficult period, antiques were nothing, but now that it has passed, why are there still these big and small yellow croakers?
If you really want it, just wait for a while and go to the pigeon market or later generations to collect some.
So Li Jiayi is very busy during this period, not only busy delivering goods after school, but also at night.
No, that night, after he finished delivering supplies to the black market, he rode his bicycle to the tavern.
The tavern now is different from before. Several dishes have been added here, and many people come here to drink every day.
No way! Who knows? Not only does this place have tempting pork head meat, but also shredded pig ears and pork mouth strips.
These are all great things to drink with!
You can’t eat meat at home, you can’t eat meat at work, you can’t even buy meat at all, but you can eat it in a tavern.
Under such circumstances, how could the business of the tavern be bad?
No, Li Jiayi came a little late, and when he got here, there was no room for him to sit.
"Come on, Mr. Li, come here and squeeze in." Mr. Niu greeted him quickly when he saw him coming in.
"Lots of Niu Ye, let me make a drink first."
"Okay."
Li Jiayi came to the counter, took out five yuan and put it on the counter and said: "Sister Yumei , give me two glasses of beer, and you can order the rest.”
“Okay, you bring the wine over first, and I’ll give you the side dishes.”
“Okay. "Li Jiayi agreed and came to Niu Ye's table with two glasses of beer.
