Chapter 344 Overcrowded

Author: Kyuubi-kun

"Sir, I'm going to help." Ye Xinguo ran to help without saying a word.

Li Mingjin smiled and shook his head, not talking.

When the rabbit meat is in the pot, another difficult thing comes. There is no place to pretend!

Li Chenzhou sighed as he looked at the kitchen. He had no choice but to bring the lunch boxes for four people and put some into the lunch boxes first. Then he divided some into several large and small bowls left in the kitchen, and then he reluctantly put the rabbit in it.

The meat is finished.

There was still a big bowl left for kneading dough and baking pancakes. This work lasted an hour. After baking twenty pancakes, Li Mingjin stopped and was sweating profusely.

Tan Yongguo and Ye Xinguo were no exception. It was a cold day, and their foreheads were covered in sweat.

After eating hot meat that night, both Tan Yongguo and Ye Xinguo felt alive again, and they scrambled to wash the dishes after the meal.

Li Mingjin and Li Chenzhou looked at them arguing with smiles. They were much more energetic like this. It was enough to keep a straight face every day.

After they had tidied up the kitchen, everyone simply washed their faces with hot water, washed their feet and went to sleep; conditions were limited, so they made do with it.

The next day, Li Chenzhou slept until three o'clock in the morning before getting up. His precious clothes turned into cotton-padded clothes and trousers, and his shoes turned into a pair of black leather shoes. In this way, he could go out inconspicuously and keep warm while walking in the cold north.

After packing up and walking out of the house, Li Chenzhou saw that there was no one in the house; Li Chenzhou looked at the space where he had stored a lot of food stamps, which he had left uneaten when he went out. But there were cloth stamps, sugar stamps, and gas stamps.

, coal stamps, cigarette stamps, alcohol stamps, vegetable stamps and other tickets are very limited.

Li Chenzhou had no choice but to go to his father's room. He saw a black bag on the table and walked forward. Next to the bag was a note with a key pressed on it.

My dear daughter, the money and tickets are all in the bag. If you don’t have enough, take them from your bankbook. Take two keys and bring them back. Go early and come back early.

Dad was still thinking about her even when he went out. Li Chenzhou smiled slightly; he picked up the bag and looked at it. Inside were colorful stacks of rolled money and various tickets. The tickets were put in categories, and there were many industrial coupons inside.

.

It was inconvenient to go out with a bag of money and tickets like this. Li Chenzhou hesitated and took out the backpack he had used ten years ago from the space. Although this bag seemed a bit small now, it could still hold these things.

Li Chenzhou cooked five hundred yuan and two hundred kilograms of food stamps, and counted about twenty kilograms of other various types of stamps. All the industrial coupons were put in the bag, and the remaining money and tickets were directly put into the space.

Put the list in your backpack conveniently, so you don't have to worry about losing it.

"Knock knock knock!"

Li Chenzhou ran to the door with his backpack on his back and opened it. There was a car parked outside. It was one of the cars that picked them up yesterday. There was a man in formal clothes standing in front of the car.

"Hello, comrade; are you Comrade Li Chenzhou? I am sent by General Li to take you to G Province to buy things." A blush appeared on his dark face, and his eyes glanced to the side, looking evasive.

Li Chenzhou nodded funnyly, "Yes, I am Li Chenzhou."

"Comrade Li, please get in the car." The second lieutenant stepped aside and opened the door of the passenger seat.

"Okay." Li Chenzhou closed the door and locked it. Then he walked quickly to him and got into the passenger seat.

Comrade Second Lieutenant slammed the car door, exhaled a breath, walked quickly to the other side and got into the driver's seat; he drove out of the concentration camp area and all the way out of the station. Comrade Second Lieutenant did not dare to look around. The handsome girl next to him was the commander-in-chief.

's daughter.

Li Chenzhou took his bag off his shoulder, put it in his arms, and leaned his head on the car seat. He looked sideways slightly and asked, "Comrade, I haven't asked you what your name is yet."

"Deputy Commander of the Second Battalion and Second Company of the Second District, Xu Guoqing."

Li Chenzhou was stunned for a moment. This kid was so sincere and told everything about his father.

"How many years have you been here?"

"It's been five years. I joined the army in the winter of 1964." Xu Guoqing answered honestly.

Li Chenzhou nodded, "Your surname is Xu, who are you, General Xu?"

Xu Guoqing paused and looked forward, driving the car steadily, "General Xu is my uncle."

"No wonder, your accent sounds very similar to General Xu." After Li Chenzhou said this, he stopped asking about people's personal matters and just had a casual chat. "There are a lot of things to sell today. I will mention a place later.

Just drive to a place; when you get there, just wait for me in the car."

"Well, okay."

Li Chenzhou didn't know what to say anymore, he had no topic.

There was silence in the car along the way, and Li Chenzhou simply closed his eyes and meditated; the road was bumpy, and when he encountered a rough place, people would fly up.

When they arrived in Province G, Xu Guoqing turned around and said, "Comrade Li, Province G is here, where should we go first?"

Li Chenzhou opened his eyes and was full of energy, "Let's go to the department store first."

"Okay." Xu Guoqing nodded, drove the car into the provincial capital, and found the department store with familiar roads.

The department store was crowded with people outside.

"What day is it today? Why are there so many people?" Li Chenzhou stretched his head and looked out the window.

Xu Guoqing looked at her and said: "The Chinese New Year will be here in eight days. Starting from the 23rd of the first lunar month, it is the time for everyone to rush to buy. Things are limited and will be gone when they are sold out, so more people will rush to buy."

"It turns out that the Chinese New Year is coming soon." Li Chenzhou suddenly realized, and immediately frowned, "Then it won't be too troublesome for me to sell things today."

"Do you want me to find some connections? I know the manager of this department store." Xu Guoqing said.

"You know him?"

"We know each other. He was a former comrade of mine who was later injured and retired. After he came back, he came to the department store through family connections and was promoted to manager at the beginning of this year."

Li Chenzhou understood that even so, those from a well-off family could refuse the assignment and find a job on their own.

"Comrade Li?" Xu Guoqing called out again when he didn't get a reply from her.

"Then I'm sorry to trouble you, Comrade Xu. There are so many people here. If they want to buy everything, they won't be able to squeeze in for a while." Li Chenzhou nodded happily, with gratitude in his eyes.

Xu Guoqing looked at her smiling face and blushed again; he drove the car silently into the back entrance of the department store. There was a place for RVs here, and the back door was also guarded. He asked the gatekeeper to take a look at it and gave him fifty cents.

That's almost it.

The man guarding the door obviously knew Xu Guoqing, and he smiled when he saw him, "Comrade Xu, why are you here now? Are you busy here?"

"Uncle Luo, we have to celebrate the Chinese New Year too. We are not very busy right now. I have something to do with the manager this time. I'll leave as soon as it's done." Xu Guoqing said politely and handed him fifty cents, "Uncle, please accept this money.

The car outside will trouble you."

"You should, go ahead, go ahead!" Uncle Luo easily accepted the money, waved his hand, and became accustomed to it.
