Chapter 162: Integrate into the bones

Chapter 162: Integrate into the bones
When I saw there was no one there, I thought it was a prank, and then I saw a sack at the door.

He looked around quickly, and seeing that there was no one around, he carried the sack in.

At this time, Li Jiayi had already arrived at the front yard and the door of Aunt Cheng's house.

He knocked on the door again, heard some noise, put down a sack and left.

When Aunt Cheng took the sack in, Li Jiayi came to the door of Aunt Xu's house in the middle courtyard again.

He knocked on the door again and left when he heard any noise.

When Li Jiayi returned home, his father and Liao Kai were still drinking.

at the same time.

In the backyard of Sun Quezi's house, when Sun Quezi came into the house carrying a sack, his wife asked, "Old Sun, who is that?"

"do not know."

"do not know?"

"Yes! But there was a sack at the door, and I brought it in."

Soon Sun Guizi opened the sack, and when he saw what was inside, he was stunned.

"Old Sun, what is that?"

"Take a look." Sun Quezi put the sack in front of his wife.

"Hiss, this... this..."

Sun Quezi thought for a moment and said, "It must have been sent by the Li family. They are the only family in our courtyard that has the conditions to do so."

"That's right, but Old Sun, we can't take this. The Li family has helped us enough."

"I know, but we can't send it back. They sent it here at this time because they didn't want others to know."

"What should I do?"

"Take it! Give the children something good to eat during the New Year. As for the Li family's kindness, I can only repay it slowly in the future."

"Ah!" Sun Quezi's wife sighed and said, "Okay, I'll listen to you."

The other two families were similar to Sun Guizi's family, and the first thing I thought of was that it was given by Li Jiayi's family.

And they all stayed.

No one came to find him, which made Li Jiayi feel relieved. He was really worried that some companies would not accept the items and send them back to him.

In fact, apart from meat and pork fat, Li Jiayi did not give much more. Each family was given five cabbages, five kilograms of white flour and fifteen kilograms of cornmeal.

What can five pounds of white flour be used for? It is enough to make dumplings for the New Year and to steam white flour buns.

Of course, it is also possible that people are reluctant to eat it and mix white flour with corn flour to make two-grain steamed buns.

But this has nothing to do with him anymore. As long as the things are delivered, it’s enough. At least they can have a good New Year.

As long as we don’t have no meat or vegetables to eat during the New Year.

Moreover, he only helped these few families. As for the people in the yard, it had nothing to do with him whether they had food or not.

Li Jiayi waited until his father and Liao Kai finished drinking before going to the sauna with them.

Then I went back to the house and went to sleep.

Of course, before going to bed, he still cleaned up the space, and then slaughtered a lot of pigs, cows, sheep, donkeys, chickens, ducks and geese.

Silent all night.

After breakfast the next morning, Li Jiayi left home, but when he passed the front yard, he actually saw Shi Datiao.

At the same time, voices were heard from the Shi family's house. From the voices, Li Jiayi heard the voices of Shi Zhen, her daughter-in-law Tao Huiyun, and her daughter Shi Qiaomei.

It seems that this family has come to the city to celebrate the New Year.

Li Jiayi thought he would not see this family for several years, but he did not expect to see them in just a few months.

"Hey, isn't this a big deal? How's the countryside? It should be pretty good!"

Shi Datiao has become much darker and thinner. If you are not very familiar with him, you probably won’t be able to recognize him.

"It's good. I have food to eat every day."

"Really? That's great." Li Jiayi nodded seriously.

I guess it won’t be long before he starts crying.

After the spring comes, when the ice and snow melt, people will find that a lot of wheat has been frozen to death, and then it will not rain for a long time.

Although the refrigerator has melted a lot of water, the lack of rain will also affect the yield.

After all, the water melted from a heavy snowfall cannot be used for a whole season.

Coupled with the wheat that has frozen to death, the yield will be greatly reduced.

It would be good if we can harvest two-thirds of the harvest from previous years. Then we will plant in the autumn. Because there is no rain, everyone will be mobilized to carry water for planting.

But if it doesn't rain, the rivers and ponds will start to dry up, and then people will realize the seriousness of the situation.

Then everyone goes back to their own homes, finds their own mothers, the big pot meal is disbanded, and everyone eats their own food.

Of course, it’s too early to say this now.

After coming out of the yard, Li Jiayi stroked his chin and thought about it.

Now that Shi Datiao is back, can we find some time to deal with Peng Zhanquan?

Li Jiayi first drove the small sled out of the city, and soon drove the big sled into the city, and then went straight to the military compound.

He took off his hood only when he was almost at the military compound.

He wore the mask not because he didn't want others to see him, but also because it was too cold. You know, this time is not the coldest time of the year, but it is almost the coldest.

Sure enough, when Li Jiayi arrived at the gate, the guard let him in. He must have received an order. Otherwise, such a large sled would have to be inspected.

Driving the sled, we came directly to Lao Li's house, where there were already many people waiting.

There was a whole box of wine in front of each person, and of course, there were also a lot of cigarettes, and they were all specially supplied.

"Xiao Li is here, come in quickly, how much did you bring this time?" When Old Li saw him, he quickly opened the door and asked.

Li Jiayi said as he drove the sled inside: "This time there are more than 3,000 kilograms."

"Hahaha, great! Great." Old Li said excitedly.

When changing, we follow the list, because he also gets the number based on this.

Lao Li was responsible for taking roll call, while Lao Zhao was responsible for collecting cigarettes and alcohol and calculating the quantities.

Old Wu and Old Niu took the meat from Li Jiayi and then handed it to the person who was going to exchange the meat.

Maybe they thought Li Jiayi had suffered a loss, so they sent him more cigarettes and alcohol.

Who are the people who live here? They are the ones who have shed blood and sweat for the people.

Of course, their ideas are different from those of ordinary people. Ordinary people all want to take advantage, but they don’t.

Not taking a single penny from the common people is ingrained in their DNA. If it weren't for the New Year coming up, they probably would never have made the exchange.

Soon a large box of pork and pork fat was replaced, and Li Jiayi asked everyone to help pack the cigarettes and alcohol into the box.

Originally Li Jiayi thought that he couldn't finish packing it, but when he finished, he found that he had only filled half a box.

But he soon realized that he had been calculating by weight and had forgotten the value of the items.

A pound of pork is only 65 cents! , while a bottle of Moutai is 2.97 yuan, which is several times the price!
There are also cigarettes, specifically Zhonghua cigarettes, a pack costs 7.5 yuan, the same price as the Great China sold by the supply and marketing cooperative.

In this way, a pack of cigarettes can be exchanged for more than eleven kilograms of meat, and even if it is exchanged for pork fat, it can be exchanged for seven and a half kilograms.

Compared to pork, tobacco and alcohol are lighter, but they are more valuable! That’s why only half a box was packed.

Since it’s only half a box, Li Jiayi certainly can’t just leave!
So he drove his sleigh to the service center, took out the money and tickets, and filled the box directly.

Then he drove the sled out, and when he reached the outside of the courtyard, he put on the hood and ran out of the city.

After a walk outside the city, they put all the things into the space, and then packed the prepared pork and lard into the box.

Back in the compound again, we managed to replace the pork and pork fat before noon.

Of course, he couldn't let Lao Li and the others work in vain, so there were four of them and each of them had to give ten kilograms of beef.

"You kid, you are helping us and preparing things for us, but this is a bit unreasonable." Old Li shook his head as he looked at the beef handed over by Li Jiayi.

"I say, Lao Li, this is meaningless. I am not doing business, and I am certainly not a scoundrel. You have been busy for so long, I cannot leave you without any appreciation!"

"But your gesture is a bit too harsh!" Old Li shook his head again.

"Yes, Xiao Li, you should take the beef back! Take it home and eat it yourself."

"Old Zhao! The problem is that my family doesn't need this!"

"Uh!"

Li Jiayi's words left Lao Zhao speechless, but when he thought about it, it made sense that Li Jiayi could get so much pork and pork fat in one go.

Then he took out another 40 kilograms of beef and gave them to them. How could they be short of meat?

"Lao Li and Lao Zhao, I think we should just accept it! Didn't the higher-ups give us some fruit? Let's each take some out and consider it as an exchange."

"I think it's okay." Lao Niu nodded.

Old Zhao thought about it and said, "That's fine."

Only Old Li kept silent, because he knew Li Jiayi better than Old Zhao and the others. This kid had no shortage of fruits, even more than they did.

"Hey guys, I'd like to ask, what kind of fruits are you distributing?" Li Jiayi asked at this time.

There are a lot of fruits in Li Jiayi's space, but his fruits are not complete, it can be said that most of them are missing.

Some are just a few local fruits.

"It's a small orange, a very small one. It seems to be called sugar orange in the south." Old Wu said.

"Sugar oranges, these are good stuff! You don't have to give me all of them, just give me some."

Yes, Li Jiayi doesn’t need that many, just a few will be enough.

Because he only needs a few seeds, it doesn’t matter whether the sugar orange has seeds or not.

There is no need to think about this. Nowadays, all fruits have seeds, except bananas, which have been modified to have no seeds.

In some places, even bananas still have seeds.

It will take at least several decades for seedless fruits, including watermelon, to develop.

"If you are sure you want it, I'm telling you, don't fool me." said Lao Li.

But he knew that this boy had brought him apples and peaches when he came home!
If we have all these rare things, how could there not be oranges, even the small ones called sugar oranges.

"Old Li, I'm not kidding you, I really want it."

"Okay, let's do this. Each of us will be given 10 kilograms. We'll keep half, and the remaining half will be given to you."

"Yes, yes, yes. Each of the four of us will give you five pounds. You can take it back and let your family try it."

"Not that much, just give me two pounds in total."

"That won't do. We've already gotten a great deal." Lao Niu shook his head.

"Yes, we still have the advantage."
