Chapter 318 Another year


Chapter 318 Another Year

"Okay, let's go play!" Li Jia put the little girl on the ground.

"Yes!" The little girl nodded, ran to the elder sister, handed the elder sister a White Rabbit toffee and said: "Sister, eat candy."

"Sister doesn't want to eat, you can eat it yourself!" The eldest sister shook her head and said.

"Oh!" The little girl then handed the candy to Zheng Lingling and said, "Sister, eat the candy."

Zheng Lingling also shook her head and said: "I won't eat it, you can eat it yourself!"

The little girl looked at Li Jiaqi and then at Zheng Lingling. She must be very confused!

Why don't any sisters eat sweets?

Li Jiayi went over and made a large enamel jar of tea, then moved a recliner and lay down.

A few days passed in the blink of an eye. On this day, Li Jiayi took his family's grain book to the grain station and exchanged the rations in the grain book for tickets.

Then we went to Pigeon City to play. Yes, we went to Pigeon City to play.

Although the price of pigeon meat in the market is still very expensive now, Li Jiayi has no intention of selling it.

There is no way, there is not much pork in stock, and now it can only maintain the demand of the black market and people like Wu Ye.

Besides, Li Jiayi doesn't need much money now. If he can exchange it for antiques and gold, he should try his best to exchange it.

Of course, he is not just playing. If he comes across someone selling national food stamps, he will also buy them.

The main reason is that this thing is not worth much. It only costs 25 cents per kilogram. Even if it costs 10,000 kilograms, it only costs 2,500 yuan.

This little money is nothing to Li Jiayi.

Unfortunately, there are very few people selling national food stamps in Pigeon Market, at least not yet. Also, the ration has just been restored for more than a month.

There aren’t that many people with enough tickets in their hands.

However, in the past few days, he also bought about 100 kilograms of national food stamps, and he just bought them from ticket sellers.

From an individual's hand, he didn't buy a pound, which is understandable.

When I got home in the evening, I found a guest at home, and the guest was He Yuzhu, standing in the yard.

"Brother Zhuzhu." Li Jiayi greeted He Yuzhu.

"Yeah!" He Yuzhu smiled and nodded.

"Let's go into the house and talk!" Li Jiayi said.

"Okay."

"You brat, you didn't even say hello to your father." Li Aimin shouted as Li Jia walked into the house.

Li Jia turned his head, gave him a roll of his eyes and said, "Dad, I'm back."

"Uh! This..."

Unfortunately, before he could finish speaking, Li Jiayi took He Yuzhu into the house.

"Brother Zhuzi, have you thought about it?"

"Yeah!" He Yuzhu nodded and said, "The main reason is that the old lady said that if I continue to live in that courtyard, there will be a lot of messy things in the future."

Li Jiayi smiled and said: "The old lady is a sensible person! So are you planning to move here?"

"Yes."

"Okay, let's do this! I'll finish the work for you first, and you can take advantage of this time to get your chef certificate."

"Yeah! I think so too, and I have already registered for the exam, which will be this Friday morning."

"Okay, great."

"By the way, plus one, where do you plan to let your sister Mei Lian work?"

"Brother Zhuzi, I can't help Sister Meilian find a job at the Second Steel Rolling Factory, so Sister Meilian must either go to the woolen mill or the bakery."

"Then let's go to the woolen mill! The woolen mill is a big factory after all."

"Okay, I get it."

He Yuzhu didn't stay here long. After settling the matter, he left on his bicycle.

The house here is ready-made and can be moved in at any time, so he will be very busy these days.

Not only do I have to be busy taking exams, I also have to get married, and I also have to rent out the house there.

The next morning, Li Jiayi arrived at the machine repair shop. He just happened to be in time to deliver meat to the machine repair shop today.

Machine repair shops are also very wealthy now! It costs one thousand kilograms of pork at a time. Although pork is cheaper now, it still costs seven and a half yuan per kilogram!

Today, this is the third time that he has delivered meat to the machine repair shop, so he is quite familiar with it.

After delivering the meat to the canteen, Li Jiayi was not in a hurry to collect the money, but went directly to the factory director's office.

"Dong dong dong!" Li Jia went up and knocked on the door.

"Come in."

When he opened the door and went in, he saw Liu Feng sitting in the office and reading materials.

"Director Liu." Li Jiayi shouted.

"Oh, please sit down, Xiao Li." Liu Feng quickly stood up and walked out from behind the desk.

"Why are you here?" Liu Feng picked up an enamel jar and asked while pouring water.

"I came to see you for something!"

"What's the matter?" Liu Feng asked, placing the enamel jar filled with water in front of Li Jiayi.

"That's right, I want Director Liu to do me a favor."

"Oh! You said you would never refuse if you could help me." Liu Feng said.

"It's like this. I have a relative who is a chef. As for his craftsmanship, let's put it this way! It is definitely not worse than Nanyi, and he is good at Tanjia cuisine and Sichuan cuisine."

He Yuzhu is no worse than Nan Yi! If compared, He Yuzhu might be even taller.

There is no way, because Nanyi's cooking has limitations, and he is good at local dishes.

"Jiayi! Do you want him to come to work in our factory?"

"Uh! Director Liu, no, I have no intention of letting him come to work here."

"If he is not allowed to come to work in our factory, what do you mean by telling me this?" Liu Feng was a little confused.

"Director Liu, you should know a lot of people in the Second Steel Rolling Plant! You even know the director."

"Ah! After working on it for a long time, do you want me to recommend him to the second rolling mill?"

"Yes! I don't know if it's possible."

"Yes, yes, but you have to tell me about his situation, otherwise how can I tell others!"

"Of course I have to say this. His name is He Yuzhu, and he is currently working as a chef at the No. 3 Steel Rolling Plant. He..."

"Wait, who are you talking about?" Before Li Jia finished speaking, Liu Feng interrupted him and asked.

"He Yuzhu! Oh! By the way, others call him Silly Zhu."

"What? Silly Zhu?"

"Yes! Factory Manager Liu knows about him?"

"I know that. There are several factory directors in these factories in the Imperial Capital who don't know Silly Zhu."

"Uh!" Li Jia was stunned for a moment, but he was also a little speechless.

It can also be seen from here how many people have eaten at the No. 3 Steel Rolling Plant.

"Jiayi! Since he is a fool, why did you ask me to introduce him to the No. 2 Steel Rolling Plant? Just come to our factory directly."

Li Jiayi scratched his head. He didn't expect this situation to happen, but he still said: "Director Liu, Shazhu is now a third-level chef!"

Although He Yuzhu has not taken the exam yet, Li Jiayi believes that he will definitely pass the third level.

"Level 3?"

"Yes, it may be Level 2 next year. Come to the machine repair shop. It seems there is no way to arrange it, right?"

The machine repair shop is relatively small, and there is already a Nanyi, so adding He Yuzhu would be a bit much.

The most important thing is that there is no position for He Yuzhu.

Let’s put it this way! If He Yuzhu didn't have a chef's certificate, everything would be easy to arrange.

Even if he is given a Level 6 certificate, it is okay, but since he now has a Level 3 chef certificate, another position must be arranged for him to compensate.

Moreover, this position must be related to the canteen. Some time ago, Nan Yi was assigned to the position of deputy director of the canteen, but now there is no position arrangement.

"Okay, I'll take some time at noon to go to the Second Steel Rolling Plant. I don't think I need to introduce him too much. As long as I say it's Silly Zhu, people will know who he is."

"Well! By the way, Director Liu, Shazhu will bring an apprentice with him in the past, so you have to say something."

"Okay, I get it."

After coming out of Liu Feng's office, Li Jiayi went to the finance department to collect the money, and then went to the canteen.

Nan Yi was not here just now and he didn't see him. He should be back by this time!

It's still early before noon, but the cafeteria is very busy. It is estimated that everyone except Nan Yi, the chef, can't be idle.

When Li Jia came in, he happened to meet two people carrying vegetable washing water to pour, and asked: "Is Master Nan back?"

"Director Nan has come back. Please wait a moment and I will call for you right away."

"Okay, thank you."

The two people poured the vegetable washing water outside and went in to help him call for help.

Li Jiayi didn't expect how long it would take! Nan Yi became the director of the canteen, but I don’t know whether he was the chief or the deputy. He should be the deputy!

Unless he is no longer a chef, those who are still working as a chef usually have a deputy position, which is considered as compensation for the chef in the factory.

"Jiayi, didn't you leave?" Nan Yi asked after coming over.

"No, you were not here when I came just now. No, you came here again after collecting the money."

"That's it!"

"But you can do it, Director Nan! How long has it been? Now you are the director."

"Deputy, to be honest, it's possible that I became the deputy director because of you."

"Because of me?" Li Jiayi asked in surprise.

"Yes, I guess the factory wants to use me to win over you, so it gave me the position of deputy director. Otherwise, why didn't they give it to me before!"

Li Jiayi scratched his head and said: "Maybe you couldn't meet the standards before."

"Impossible."

"Forget it, let's not talk about it anymore. Now that you have become the deputy director, Cui Da is not causing trouble, is he?"

"What a mess, he was transferred to the warehouse as a porter."

"Uh! No! Then can he be willing?"

Nan Yi shrugged and said: "If you don't want to, there is no way. Where to transfer you is not a matter of a word from the factory leader, and you have to go."

"That's true." Li Jiayi nodded in agreement.

Factories cannot fire employees at will, but there is a prerequisite, and that is that they must do their jobs well.

What is your job? Whatever the factory asks you to do is your job.

If you say you don’t want to do it, that’s fine! If the workers don't work, then it's okay to fire you, right?

Don't talk about Cui Dake! He Yuzhu was so prickly. He was transferred from the kitchen to the workshop. He had to do it anyway.

As long as you do it, no matter whether you do well or not, the factory cannot fire you.

"But Master Nan, that guy is not a good guy, you still have to be careful."

"Yeah! I know."

To be honest, Nanyi is not safe now, let’s put it that way! As long as Cui Dake stays in the factory for one day, he will not be safe.

You must know that people like Cui Dake are particularly good at digging into camps. As long as you give him a chance, he will get up again.

Especially during the ten-year period, he was an active member.

"By the way, Master Nan, have you taken the chef certificate?"

"Testing for a chef's certificate? What's the point of taking the exam?" Nan Yi said nonchalantly.

Li Jiayi patted his forehead. Needless to say, Nan Yi's thoughts were exactly the same as He Yuzhu's.

They are all people who value craftsmanship and don't care about documents or anything like that.

"Master Nan! You are different now. If you were just a chef, it wouldn't matter whether you took the exam or not. But now that you are the deputy director, you must be compensated to prevent others from causing trouble behind your back. You should still take the exam. OK.”

Hearing what Li Jiayi said, Nan Yi thought for a while and said: "You are right. It is difficult for others to say, but Cui Dake will definitely cause harm."

"Then you'd better take some time to register today, because the exam will be on Friday. For those who are taking the exam for the first time, you can directly take the Level 3 Chef Certificate."

"Well! Let's go in the afternoon! I don't have anything to do in the afternoon. I'll take a day off and go there."

"Okay."

Regarding Nan Yi's emotional problems, Li Jiayi did not get involved because in his heart, he was more inclined to Liang Ladi's side.

Liang Ladi may not be a good woman in the traditional sense, but she is definitely a good wife and mother.

To be honest, Li Jiayi admired such a woman.

The same woman, the same widow, the same mother, Qin Huairu and Liang Ladi are definitely two extremes.

It is even said that the two people are not comparable at all. Most people admire Liang Ladi when they see what she has done.

Looking at what Qin Huairu did, most people gritted their teeth and wished to kill her.

After chatting with Nan Yi for a few more words, Li Jiayi drove a tricycle and left the machine repair shop.

After coming out of the machine repair shop, Li Jiayi went to the woolen mill again. There should be no problems with He Yuzhu.

After all, He Yuzhu is famous! And he was often poached by various factories, but at that time, He Yuzhu didn't go anywhere.

When he arrived at the woolen textile factory, Li Jia thought for a while and went directly to the office of factory director Qiao Xinrongqiao.

Don't worry about anything. Since I got the quota from Factory Director Qiao before, I'll go to him this time.

Let’s put it this way! If Li Jiayi went to the deputy director's office now, no matter whether he could get a quota or not, Director Qiao would definitely think twice if he knew about it.

This is human nature. If it were him, he would probably think of something else.

"Dong dong dong!" Li Jia went up and knocked on the door.

"Come in."

"Director Qiao." Li Jia opened the door and shouted with a smile.

"Li Jiayi, why are you here? Please take a seat."

"Yeah!"

After Li Jiayi sat down, Director Qiao said: "Today is not the day to deliver meat! Did you come here for something else?"

"That's right." Li Jiayi scratched his head and said, "I want to ask you for two more job quotas."

Li Jiayi is still very direct. Besides, even if he is beating around the bush, he still has to say it in the end.

"I need two places! What is your academic qualification?"

"They all graduated from junior high school."

After hearing what Li Jiayi said, Factory Manager Qiao opened the drawer, took out two employment forms and put them on the desk.

"It's just you. I won't give it to anyone else, but this year there are only these two."

"I know the factory director, don't worry! I won't ask for it again this year."

Job quotas are limited. Even Qiao Xinrong, the factory director, cannot have so many quotas.

"It's good that you know. Also, you can't say it was given by me outside."

"I know, I won't tell others."

"Yeah!"

"By the way, you will graduate in two years, and you will come to work immediately after graduation."

"Understood!"

Just kidding, didn't Qiao Xinrong give up all his efforts just because he hoped that Li Jiayi could come to work in the factory?

"Also, next time you come to deliver meat, come to my office. You should also raise your level."

For unplanned buyers, if they can exceed the target for three consecutive months, they will basically be promoted to a higher level.

But it’s not easy to exceed the target! And it lasted three months.

You must know that for unplanned buyers, not to mention exceeding the quota, it is considered outstanding if they can complete the task.

This is not talking about the time when there is a natural disaster, let’s put it this way! For most buyers, it would be good if they could complete their tasks in one-third of the month of the year.

"Ah! Level up! I like this."

"You kid." Qiao Xinrong shook his head.

But having said that, it really makes no sense for Li Jiayi not to upgrade, because he is not just over-rated.

Although he does not come to work in the factory, isn't this the prerogative of the unplanned material purchaser?

"By the way, you are still at the administrative level 30, right?"

"Yes, director."

"Okay, I get it."

Li Jiayi has not been promoted since he joined the company. If he followed the normal regulations, he could have been promoted several levels. Unfortunately, he is only a supernumerary.

After getting two employment orders, Li Jiayi left. It was still early, so he went to the pigeon market.

He is not selling anything now. When he arrived at Pigeon Market, he parked his tricycle outside and locked it before entering Pigeon Market.

"Comrade, are you buying tickets or selling tickets?" As soon as we entered, a middle-aged man came up and asked.

Generally, people who ask this question are basically ticket sellers. If not, they will ask you what kind of tickets to buy or what kind of tickets to sell.

The question is simple. For example, if the other party wants to buy food stamps, will he ask you if you sell food stamps?

"Do you have any national food stamps?" Li Jiayi asked.

"Yes, there are, but not many."

"It doesn't matter, I want as much as I want."

"Okay! I have twelve kilograms of national food stamps here. If you want them, I'll give them all to you."

"Okay." Li Jiayi took out a three-yuan note from his pocket and handed it over. Li Jiayi had a lot of this kind of money with a face value of three yuan, not intending to keep it for future appreciation, mainly because it was relatively rare.

And the one he took out now was not exchanged from the bank, but the money collected from selling things normally, and it was relatively shabby.

Li Jiayi had a complete set of the second set of RMB in his hand, and they were all with serial numbers.

They were all replaced from the bank and put directly into the space. It can be said that there is no wear at all.

These are the ones he keeps for collection, including when the third set came out, he exchanged a lot of them.

When the third set first came out, you just put money in the bank and took it out.

The money you take out is all brand new third set of RMB, and you can also say what denomination you want.

For people with little money, it is difficult to exchange them one by one, but for Li Jiayi, it couldn't be easier.

After the transaction, the middle-aged man asked: "Do you want other tickets?"

"Yes! Do you have any cloth coupons? Tobacco and alcoholic beverage coupons, non-staple food coupons, and candy coupons are all acceptable."

"Uh! Comrade, the tickets you want are in short supply! Sorry, I don't have them here."

Read the error-free version at 69 Book Bar! 6=9+Book_Bar debuts this novel.

"Forget it if it's not, I'll take a look again."

"Okay."

There are really few tickets now. Not only are there few food stamps in the country, but it is even harder to get tobacco and alcohol stamps. There are also candy stamps and non-staple food coupons.

Of course, there is also a special shortage of cloth tickets and cotton tickets, but Li Jiayi no longer needs cotton tickets now.

He has planted cotton in the space several times, and now there are quite a few of them in the space.

Li Jiayi did not go home at noon, but went to the small courtyard with the food and had a meal with the fat man.

After staying in the small courtyard until about two o'clock in the afternoon, Li Jiayi drove a tricycle to the machine repair shop.

By this time, Liu Feng should have returned from the Second Steel Rolling Plant, so he was going to see the results.

When he arrived at the machine repair shop, Li Jia rushed to Liu Feng's office.

After knocking on the door and entering, Liu Feng saw it was him and said quickly: "Sit down quickly."

"Director Liu, how are you?"

Liu Feng took out two employment forms and handed them over and said: "Go back and ask them to fill it out, and then go directly to the job."

"Give it to you directly?" Li Jiayi picked up the employment form and looked at it and asked.

"Of course, plus one! You still don't know much about Shazhu! Otherwise, there is no need to worry at all."

"I'm not worried, I just didn't expect it to be done so quickly."

"By the way, after Shazhu arrived there, he served as the chef squad leader of the No. 1 Canteen. His work grade was calculated as Level 6. He also served as the deputy director of the No. 1 Canteen."

"That's okay! In this case, it's almost seventy or eighty a month!"

"Almost."

"That's good, I thought it would take two or three months to get it up!"

Liu Feng shook his head and said: "Others may need it, but Silly Zhu doesn't."

"Okay!"

"By the way, Shazhu's apprentice, the Second Steel Rolling Plant also gave him a position as a level 10 cook."

"Uh!" Li Jia was stunned for a moment. MCA must have only been working for a short time!

Normally, it takes at least three years as an apprentice to become a full-time apprentice.

Yes, the position of level 10 cook is not recognized outside. This level is only available in factories.

It is equivalent to converting an apprentice into a regular worker, and the monthly salary is 27.5 yuan.

In addition to the tenth-level cooks, there is also a ninth-level cook, which is equivalent to the third or fourth stove position in the factory canteen.

You can already cook alone, and your salary is thirty-one-yuan, and this level can be said to be the highest in the factory cafeteria.

This can be considered a blessing in disguise for MCA! I was about to lose my master, but I didn't expect him to be promoted to a full-time job. How can I explain this?

"Director Liu, thank you."

"You're not too polite. Besides, I recommended Silly Zhu to the Second Steel Rolling Mill. They treated me right. Not only did they treat me to a nice drink, they also made me a sumptuous meal."

Hearing what Liu Feng said, Li Jiayi realized how famous He Yuzhu was.

And this name was also given to him by the No.3 Steel Rolling Plant. If the No.3 Steel Rolling Plant had not become a food and drink habit, his fame would not have been so great.

Let's not talk about anything else, let's just talk about Liao Kai and Nan Yi. Their craftsmanship is no worse than that of He Yuzhu, but in terms of fame, it is estimated that the two of them together are not even one-tenth as famous as He Yuzhu.

After getting the employment form, Li Jiayi chatted with Liu Feng for a while before leaving the machine repair shop.

Although it was still early, he had no intention of going to Pigeon Market again, but went home directly.

Back home, the eldest sister and the girl Liao Qingxue were giving extra lessons to Jiafen.

The second sister and her three best friends were playing poker.

"Lingling, stop playing now, go home and call your elder brother over." Li Jia said to Zheng Lingling.

"Okay Brother Ka Yi." Zheng Lingling put the cards on the table and ran out.

"Second sister, go and see if Sister Meilian is at home? If she is at home, ask her to come."

"Yeah! I'll go take a look." The second sister also put the cards on the table and ran out.

Soon Zheng Changrong came over and asked: "Jiayi, what do you want from me?"

"Here you go, fill it out and go directly to the woolen mill to get a job."

"Ah! This...this is..."

"Yes, this is an entry form. Just fill it out as mentioned above. But it's not bad. It's a clerk establishment. Once you join, you will be a formal employee."

"Same as my sister." Sun Qingmei said.

"That's right, there were only two places last time, and they were given to your sister first. This time we just got two more places."

"Plus one, thank you!"

"You're welcome, okay, you can go back and fill out the form! As for when to go for induction, it's up to you."

"Well! Thank you for adding one."

"Okay, I thanked you just now. Don't say thank you to me again. I can't stand this."

"Okay! Then I'll go back and tell my mother."

"Go!"

"Xiao Jiayi, why did you ask me to come over?" Qian Meilian asked after coming in.

"Sister Meilian, look at this." Li Jia said as he handed over an employment form.

"The entry form, or the entry form from the woolen mill?" Qian Meilian said in surprise.

"Yes, this is what I promised Brother Zhuzi, to help you get a job. This is a formal job!"

"Thank you! Thank you! Thank you for adding one."

No one knows how Qian Meilian came to work part-time in the past few years. Only those who have experienced this can know what this job means.

"Okay, Sister Meilian, please don't thank me anymore. By the way, Brother Zhuzi, you have to go and inform me that I have two employment orders here, for Brother Zhuzi and his apprentice."

Qian Meilian was stunned for a moment and asked quickly: "Plus, does He Yuzhu also work in the canteen of the woolen textile factory?"

"No, Brother Zhuzhu didn't tell you?"

"No, he just told me that he was going to work here and live here."

"Well, Brother Zhuzi doesn't work in the woolen mill, but in the No. 2 Steel Rolling Plant, where he is appointed as a Level 6 cook and concurrently serves as the deputy director of the canteen."

"What?" Qian Meilian looked at Li Jiayi in surprise.

"Sister Meilian, you heard me right, so I would like to trouble you to inform Brother Zhuzi and ask him to come."

"Okay, I understand. Lend me your bike. I'll tell him now."

"Okay, the bike is outside, you can ride it as you like."

After Qian Meilian left, Li Jiayi also breathed a sigh of relief. To be honest, it was really tiring to find a job with others.

The second sister and the others continued to play cards. Li Jiayi was afraid of the noise, so he went upstairs.

After locking the door from the inside, Li Jiayi entered the space and continued cooking sorghum.

Yes, he is still making wine, but unfortunately it takes a lot of time to burn the wine vats at the crock factory, otherwise he can make a lot of wine.

But it’s good to be like this now. It’s not so tiring. I steam some of it every day and take it out to ferment. After fermentation, the wine is distilled.

At around five o'clock, Li Jiayi came down from upstairs and saw He Yuzhu as soon as he came down.

Needless to say, He Yuzhu got off work early again and came here. He probably didn't call him because he was sleeping.

"Brother Zhuzi, when did you come?" Li Jiayi asked.

"About four o'clock! I don't know the specifics."

When Li Jia heard what he said, he shook his head, then went over and took out two employment forms from his school bag.

"Brother Zhuzi, take a look at it yourself and see if there is any problem. By the way, the other one is from MCA."

He Yuzhu didn't even look at it and said directly: "What's the problem with this?"

"Plus one! I heard from your sister Meilian that the No. 2 Steel Rolling Plant gave me a Level 6 cook, right?"

"That's right! There is also the deputy director of the cafeteria, which can be regarded as compensation for you."

"Hahaha, okay, I will move here after I get married, and then go to work."

"Well! Anyway, I didn't say the specific time. It's up to you."

"That guy from MCA also got a level 10 cook. If he knew about it, he would go crazy with joy." He Yuzhu said with emotion.

How could he not be happy after losing nearly three years of apprenticeship? Even if he learns a little slower, he will be at least a ninth-level cook in three years!

"Brother Zhuzi, there is no need for MCA to let him come over. You can just help him take it back."

"Well! Leave this to me."

"Okay!"

Just when He Yuzhu and Qian Meilian were about to get married, a big event happened in No. 7 Courtyard.

That is, the Peng Zhanquan family in the backyard moved away. As for where they moved, no one in the courtyard knew.

But the person who moved here surprised Li Jiayi for a long time, and he couldn't believe it.

Because the person who moved here was none other than Nanyi, yes, it was Nanyi. This was why Li Jiayi was surprised.

But he soon remembered that Peng Zhanquan seemed to work in the machine repair shop!

Needless to say, it had something to do with him, because he seemed to have said something at the time that someone in the courtyard worked in the machine repair shop.

Li Jiayi was very happy when Nan Yi came over, because he was the only one, so that night, Li Jiayi called Nan Yi to his home and asked Nan Yi to cook a table of dishes.

Since it is a celebration, of course the Liao Kai family cannot be left out!

However, Liao Kai did not help from the beginning to the end. It was not that he did not want to help, but that he was not allowed to help.

After all, what everyone wants to try is Nanyi's craftsmanship. If Liao Kai goes to help, the dishes will be messed up.

This was suitable for Nan Yi. He lived in three houses by himself, and the house was the same size as the main house.

In fact, it's quite appropriate. Don't forget that there will be many people in the Nanyi family in the future! At least there are more people than Liao Kai's family.

Time flies by, and it's the end of the month in a blink of an eye. He Yuzhu and Qian Meilian have gotten married and are now living in Li Jiayi's house.

And He Yuzhu not only brought his sister here, but also a deaf old lady.

As for the houses over there, they are all rented out, and the rent there happens to be enough to pay the rent here.

But the place is much bigger! Not only that, there is a bathroom in the room, and most importantly, it is a small courtyard.

Not only can He Yuzhu go from Courtyard No. 5, but he can also go to Li Jia's family through the newly opened Moon Gate and go from Courtyard No. 7.

Also starting from this day, two more people came to Li Jia's family to cook.

Now you can even order food. Anyway, there are three chefs here. Not all dishes can be cooked, but it's not much different.

Li Jiafen's enrollment has also been processed, and she can go to school directly in two days.

All schools in the entire imperial capital have resumed classes.

If others don't tell me, it's impossible for the second sister to sleep in. Even if primary and secondary schools don't resume classes, she can't sleep in because she has to go to a technical secondary school!

In the blink of an eye, June of 1963 has arrived, and there have been great changes in this year.

Although it has been repaying Lao Maozi's debt since the beginning of 1963, after such a long period of recovery, it has now begun to supply pork.

However, the supply is very small, with only two taels of fresh meat per person per month. Although it has not returned to the standards of 58 years ago, the supply has finally begun.

Because of this, the price of meat in Pigeon Market also dropped, and pork finally returned to one yuan per pound.

If you go to the pigeon market now, you can buy chickens if you are lucky, and you can often buy eggs.

Pork rationing has not returned to previous levels, possibly because of debt repayments.

This year, Li Jiayi was relatively honest and rarely went out. Even his business of peanuts, melon seeds and beef jerky had stopped.

He no longer needs to sell peanuts and melon seeds to accumulate funds. For now, there is no need for any money at all.

Besides, everyone is starting to go to school now, and he doesn't want his brothers to focus all their energy on this.

You still have to go to school, even if you can't get into college, you still have to finish high school.

What's more, even if he doesn't sell peanuts and melon seeds, he still has a way to make money. Don't forget, he hasn't lost it in the black market, including Master Wu.

And for various reasons, whether it was from the black market or Master Wu, he now began to collect cash.

There is nothing that can be done about this, because he has collected too many antiques and large and small yellow croakers. Whether it is from the black market or from Master Wu, it is quite troublesome to find these things.

In the words of Mr. Long from the Black Market: All I have in my hand now is money, and there is really nothing else.

It's all like this, what else can Li Jiayi say, so he can only start collecting cash.

Cash will still be useful six or six years from now, but it is of little use now.

After dinner that night, Li Jia called the family together, then looked at the eldest sister and asked: "Sister, have you thought about where you will go after graduation?"

Yes, the eldest sister is about to graduate. After the exam is over, even if it is real graduation, it will be time to assign jobs.

"Where does what go? Isn't it assigned?" The eldest sister looked at Li Jiayi doubtfully and asked.

"Sister, you are right, it is indeed an allocation, but if there is a place to receive it, you can send a letter to the school."

"Ah! Is this still possible?"

"Yes, so do you have somewhere in mind to go?"

Li Jiaqi thought for a while and said: "I don't know, I haven't thought about it before. I still want to go wherever I am assigned!"

"No! The places assigned by schools are generally not very good. You should think about where you want to go!"

Li Jiaqi looked at Li Jiayi and said: "Brother, you are smarter than the eldest sister. Where do you think the eldest sister should go?"

"Uh! This..." Li Jiayi scratched his head and said: "Forget it, eldest sister, I will tell you a few places, you can choose it yourself!"

"Yeah!"

"The first place, the Ministry of Light Industry, is probably the Municipal Light Industry Bureau below."

"This place is nice!" Ye Xin nodded and said.

"It's not bad, and you can sit in an office without being blown by the wind or rain. How great!" Li Aimin nodded in agreement.

Li Jiayi ignored his parents' words and continued: "The second place is the District Public Security Bureau."

"This is pretty good too."

"That's right, it's just tiring and not as comfortable as the Light Industry Bureau."

"The third place is the army. But when you go to the army, it is not as good as the unit. You have to start from scratch, but there will be no problem in getting started."

"Jiaqi, tell mom, what do you think? I think these three places are okay, especially the Light Industry Bureau."

At this time, the Light Industry Bureau was directly under the Ministry of Light Industry! Department and bureau-level units.

It is not even impossible to go directly to the Ministry of Light Industry.

Li Jiaqi thought for a while and looked at Ye Xin and said, "Mom, I don't want to sit in an office for the rest of my life. That would be too boring."

"Ah! How nice it is to sit in the office! Look at mom sitting in the office."

Li Jiaqi shook her head and said, "But I don't want to sit in the office."

"Okay! Then it's up to the district public security bureau and the army."

Li Jiaqi looked at Li Jiayi and said, "Brother, I want to go to the district public security bureau. Is it possible?"

Hearing the eldest sister's choice, Li Jiayi smiled and said: "It must be possible!"

To say that Li Jiayi has the strongest relationship, it is definitely Lao Li, but there is no way, the eldest sister did not choose a team.

In addition to the army, there is the District Public Security Bureau, which is much tougher than the Ministry of Light Industry.

Because he wanted to establish connections with the Ministry of Light Industry, he also needed help from factory director Qiao Xinrongqiao.

In general, this is a turning point. Although there is no problem, it still depends on how much effort Director Qiao Xinrongqiao can put in.

But the District Public Security Bureau is different. This is Li Jiayi’s own relationship. You must know that he has sent meat and snacks to the District Public Security Bureau for several years!

This relationship is strong, it can be said that it is stronger than steel. Even now, Li Jiayi is still sending meat and food to the district public security bureau.

It can be said that this is also the reason why Li Jiayi has had such an easy life in the past few years.

His matter basically ends when he reaches the district police station.

"Brother, if you can, then go to the district public security bureau."

"Okay, I will arrange this. You can just take the exam with peace of mind and don't have to worry about anything."

"Yeah!"

"Son, is it okay for your eldest sister to go to the district police station?" Ye Xin asked at this time.

"What's the problem?"

"Son, I'm not talking about whether you can go. I'm talking about being a police officer. It's very dangerous."

The eldest sister said at this time: "Mom, I'm not afraid of danger. Besides, the really dangerous things may not be my turn."

"Mom is just worried, Jiaqi, don't think too much about it," Ye Xin said quickly.

"Mom, don't worry. I can arrange for me to come in directly. We must have a good relationship and they will take care of me."
