Chapter 237 The Guarantee of the Two Old Men(1/2)

To be honest, forty thousand kilograms is definitely not a small amount, even in a radio factory.

Although Fangyuan only wants coarse grain stamps, don’t forget that coarse grain stamps can buy potatoes.

Forty thousand kilograms of potatoes, which is equivalent to two days of rations for the entire radio factory.

In fact, Fangyuan didn't need so much. Thirty thousand jins was enough. But he was also driving one sheep and two sheep, so he asked for more.

What if it’s not enough! You can’t ask for more when the time comes! Fangyuan doesn’t like trouble, so it’s best to solve it once and for all.

"Yes, forty thousand catties."

Wu Chu smiled bitterly and said: "Fang Yuan, forty thousand kilograms is too much. I'm afraid I can't give you so much."

"It doesn't matter, how much can you give me?"

"Twenty thousand catties at most."

Fangyuan scratched his head and said, "Twenty thousand kilograms! It's a little less."

"Fang Yuan, this is already a lot, let me tell you the truth! If you don't exchange it for pork, don't say 20,000 jins, even 10,000 jins would probably be difficult."

"Okay! Then it's twenty thousand kilograms. I'll deliver the meat to you later."

"Okay, no problem."

Wu Chu was also very excited. Twenty thousand kilograms of whole grains can be exchanged for about fifteen hundred kilograms of pork. The fat on the fifteen hundred kilograms of pork can be converted into more than one hundred kilograms of lard.

After Fangyuan came out of the radio factory, he went to the steel rolling mill. Originally, he had no intention of doing everything from the radio factory.

After all, 40,000 kilograms of grain is not a small amount, and there are really not many places to get it from these large factories.

"Oops! What brought you here?" As soon as Fang Yuan opened the door of Liu Chu's office, Liu Chu stood up and said.

"It's not a good wind anyway." Fangyuan shrugged and said.

"Uh!" Liu Chu was stunned for a moment and asked, "What! Is something wrong?"

Who is Liu Chu? You can tell by listening to Fangyuan’s tone.

"Hmm!"

"Tell me! See if I can help."

Liu Chu and Fangyuan are also old acquaintances, so there is no need to mince words.

"I need a batch of grain, just whole grains." Fangyuan also got straight to the point.

"How many are needed?"

Fangyuan thought for a while and said: "Twenty thousand catties."

"Hiss!" Liu Chu took a breath and said, "It's really a lot."

When Liu Chu said this, Fangyuan knew there was something going on, because Liu Chu didn't say much.

"It's quite a lot. Don't worry, I won't let you suffer. One thousand five hundred kilograms of pork will be exchanged for twenty thousand kilograms of coarse grains."

"I'll figure it out when you want it."

"I want it in the next two days."

"Okay."

Liu Chu was much happier than Wu Chu. The reason for this was that Fangyuan had helped him a lot before.

To put it bluntly, if it weren't for Fangyuan, he would never be sitting in this position now, so there are some personal feelings mixed in.

Three thousand kilograms of pork were exchanged for forty thousand kilograms of whole grains. It looked like Fangyuan was suffering a loss, but in fact he was making a profit.

Now in the black market, that is, the pigeon market, although the price of pork has remained high, it is no longer as high as before.

After all, the imperial capital has begun to supply fresh meat again, but the price of food is not cheap! It is still the same price as before.

Buying a pound of coarse grain stamps at Pigeon Market still costs eighty or nine cents, or even one yuan.

Of course, the supply of fresh meat does not mean that you can buy meat. It is still the same as before, with a quota of 2 taels of fresh meat per person per month.

To be honest, it didn't meet Fangyuan's expectations. According to Fangyuan's idea, at least we should return to the previous ration, four taels per person per month.

I don’t know what the 20,000 elderly people think. The rationing has not been restored to the previous one, but the subsequent rationing has been adopted.

Of course, the two old men may have other ideas, and Fangyuan may even wonder if part of the meat was transported to other places. This is not impossible.

You know, that’s 50 million kilograms! If it were all supplied to the imperial capital, on average each person would have ten kilograms.

According to the ration of 2 taels per month, it only lasts for 2 kilograms and 4 taels per year. Ten kilograms of meat can be used for about four years and two months.

"Okay, I'll leave first. I'll come back in two days to deliver the pork."

"Okay." Fangyuan nodded.

When she came out of the steel rolling mill, Fangyuan breathed a sigh of relief and felt relaxed all over.

Now that the food issue is settled, all that remains is to go to the old man's house. Fangyuan still doesn't know what the old man wants to do with him.

I don’t even know whether the old man with thick eyebrows and big eyes is looking for me, or the short old man is looking for me.

It's not far from Beichizi. It didn't take long for Fangyuan to drive there. He parked the car on the side of the road and Fangyuan was ready to go there.

But after thinking about it, Fangyuan stopped again. It took a lot of effort to come here, so you can’t go empty-handed!

Fangyuan Fangyuan returned to the car, and when she got off again, she carried two chickens, two rabbits, and a basket of eggs.

Those who didn’t know thought he was a visiting relative.

"Stand." Arriving at the door of the old man's house with thick eyebrows and big eyes, Fangyuan was stopped by someone.

"Uh!" Fangyuan was stunned for a moment and said, "What's wrong?"

You must know that Dong Yi called him to ask him to come, and the two people guarding the gate were Dong Yi's men. It was impossible for them not to know that Fangyuan was coming.

"Please get checked." One of the young people said.

When he heard that he was undergoing an examination, Fangyuan said "Oh" and said, "Let's get checked!"

Two young men came over and looked first at the basket, then at the rabbit cage.

There was no problem. One of the young people said to Yuan Yuan: "I'm sorry, we want to check you."

Fangyuan gave the young man a roll of his eyes and said, "Do you think I will be harmful to the two old people?"

Just when the young man was about to say something, the door opened from the inside, and Dong Yi appeared at the door and said: "No need to check."

"Yes." The two young men saluted and then stepped aside.

"Fang Yuan, come with me!" After saying this, Dong Yi went in first.

Fangyuan hurriedly followed and said as he walked: "Old Dong, you don't know how to help me carry my things."

"Uh!" Dong Yi was stunned for a moment, then looked back at Fangyuan and asked, "What did you call me?"

"Old Dong! What's wrong?"

Hearing Fangyuan's words, Dong Yi smiled bitterly and shook his head. He was only thirty years old, and he didn't expect Fangyuan to call him Lao Dong.

Even so, he still came over to help Fangyuan take over the chicken coop and rabbit cage, so that Fangyuan had a basket on his arm.

The two people quickly came to the house. The old man with thick eyebrows and big eyes and the short old man were both there. Fangyuan was stunned for a moment and said quickly: "Hello, you two old people."

"Yeah!" The old man with thick eyebrows and big eyes nodded.

"What do you mean, kid?" the short old man asked, pointing to the things Fangyuan brought over.

Fangyuan shrugged and said, "I'm from a small place, and there's nothing good about it. That's what it means."

Hearing what Fangyuan said, the short old man smiled bitterly and shook his head. This guy really doesn't play by the rules.

"Do you know what your nature is?" The old man with thick eyebrows and big eyes asked with a sullen face.

"What kind of nature? It's nothing more than a child who respects two elderly people. What kind of nature can it have?" Fangyuan spread his hands and said.

Fangyuan's words put a smile on the face of the old man with thick eyebrows and big eyes.

"Xiao Dong, please go out first!" the short old man said.

"Yes."

Dong Yi saluted and then went out, closing the door when he went out.

At this time, Fangyuan still didn't understand what was going on. It was estimated that the two old men had something to do with him, otherwise they wouldn't have let Dong Yi leave.

Fangyuan put the basket on the ground, walked directly to sit across from the two old men, and didn't look polite at all.

The two old men looked at each other and then at Fang Yuan.

Fangyuan, on the other hand, had already picked up the teapot on the coffee table and poured himself a cup of tea.

He took a sip gently and said: "Good tea."

"Little guy, wait a moment before you drink. We have something to tell you." said the short old man.

"You said what you said, I'm listening." Fang Yuan didn't put down the teacup while speaking, and took another sip after speaking.
