Chapter 242 Large Volume Transactions

Master Wu thought for a moment and said, "That doesn't matter. Even if you deliver it during the day, they will send someone to pick it up at night."

It’s definitely not possible during the day! If it’s only a dozen or twenty pounds, it’s fine, you can just stuff it in your arms and take it away.

But these people are all rich! It is estimated that each of them weighs several hundred kilograms or even more.

"Yes, yes, you can send it over anytime."

"That's right, but we want more, is that possible?"

Li Jiayi looked at the two men and said, "It doesn't matter how much you want. I can get it. Just prepare the yellow croakers or antiques."

After hearing what Li Jiayi said, more than a dozen people looked at each other, and then said to Master Wu: "Let's start counting now! Everyone should count how much they want, and then prepare antiques if necessary, and prepare large and small yellow croakers if necessary."

"Okay, I'm fine."

"That's okay with me too."

Uncle Wu finished the statistics quickly. What surprised Li Jiayi was that, including Uncle Wu, these dozen people actually asked for more than 20,000 kilograms of food.

And they are all refined grains, mostly white flour and a small amount of rice.

And this is just food. A lot of meat is also needed. All added up, it’s almost two thousand kilograms.

This is just pork. There are more than 100 kilograms of beef and nearly 400 kilograms of pork fat.

"Xiao Li, how long will it take you to transport these things?"

Li Jiayi took out his pocket watch, glanced at it and said, "I can deliver one in half an hour at most, but don't worry, I will definitely deliver all of them before noon."

"That's good, that's good. I'll go back and prepare things first."

"Yes, yes, let's go back and prepare as well."

After these dozen people left, Li Jiayi asked, "Master Wu, how are these people?"

"Xiao Li, don't worry about this. There will be absolutely no problem for anyone who can come to my house."

"That's good. I don't mind. At most I can stop trading here and trade with others. But it will be difficult for you to buy food in the future."

"Xiao Li, I know this very well, so don't worry."

"Ok!"

After talking for a few more words, Li Jiayi left Uncle Wu's house, strolled outside for a while, and then returned to Uncle Wu's house.

He drove the sled directly into the yard, asked Uncle Wu to close the gate, and Li Jiayi began to get things out.

Except for some food, the rest of what was transported this time was all meat.

With the help of several children from Uncle Wu's family, the things were quickly unloaded and moved into the house.

After a whole morning, Li Jiayi finally delivered the food and meat to Uncle Wu's house.

Then he left with half a box of large and small yellow croakers. It was just the beginning, so all he used were large and small yellow croakers.

In a year or so, when they have used up all the yellow croakers, they will probably have to exchange them for antiques.

By that time, there may be more than a dozen people, so it seems we will have to rent another yard.

Otherwise, I can't stand running back and forth like this! It's better to have a yard, take it all out at once and let them divide it themselves.

After coming out of Uncle Wu's house, he originally planned to find a restaurant outside to have a bite to eat, but after running two blocks, he didn't see a single restaurant open.

Li Jiayi patted his forehead and said, "Look at my memory. Last month, a notice was issued that except for 16 restaurants in the capital, all others will be closed."

This includes the small restaurants on the street.

The main reason is the shortage of food and meat. A restaurant can still remain open without meat by selling steamed buns or vegetarian noodles.

But if there is not even noodles, how can we open the store? What will the guests eat when they come?
The remaining sixteen restaurants are all old and key restaurants. You do not need food coupons or meat coupons to dine in these sixteen restaurants, but the prices are several times more expensive than other places.

Of course, these sixteen restaurants do not include Lao Mo Restaurant, because Lao Mo Restaurant is a restaurant owned by foreigners.

You don’t need a ticket to dine at Lao Mo’s Restaurant, but they do offer meal coupons. Only those who have made a reservation will be given a meal coupon by Lao Mo’s Restaurant.

With the meal coupon, you can dine at Lao Mo Restaurant.

Li Jiayi's current location is not close to any of the sixteen restaurants, so he does not plan to eat in a restaurant. He plans to find a deserted place and go into the space to eat something.

"Wu Chiren!"

"Wu Chiren!"

"Wait, are you calling me?" Li Jiayi thought.

I quickly turned around and saw that it was really me. It seems that I can't just come up with a random pseudonym!

If you're not careful, you'll be exposed. For example, when someone called him the first time just now, he didn't react at all.

"It's you! Why are you here on such a cold day instead of staying at home?"

Yes, the one who called him was none other than the little girl Lin Ling'er.

"It's so boring to stay at home! It's so fun to go out and skate."

When Li Jiayi heard Lin Ling'er say this, he realized that she was holding a pair of skates in her hand.

Children from wealthy families are different! When other people go out to skate, they rent ice skating equipment from other places, but children from wealthy families have their own ice skating equipment at home.

It was only at this time that Li Jiayi realized that he had come to Houhai without realizing it.

Li Jiayi looked at Lin Ling'er and said, "You're not going to ask me to take you home again, are you?"

"If you're okay, you can take me home!"

"I have something to do."

"Hmph, if you have something to say, tell me what you want to say."

"I need to find a place to eat, so I can't take you home." Li Jiayi said. "Find a place to eat! Most restaurants are closed now, where can you eat? How about this, you take me home and I'll treat you to a meal."

"No." Li Jiayi shook his head. He didn't have the habit of going to other people's homes for dinner.

"No! There are no cars here now. You won't bear to see me standing here in the cold, right?" After saying that, he got on the sled directly.

This made Li Jiayi speechless. What a scoundrel! She came right up before anyone agreed.

"Let's go! Don't worry, eating at my house is definitely not worse than eating at a restaurant."

Li Jiayi shook his head and could only drive the sled towards Lin Ling'er's house.

Ten minutes later, the sled stopped at the gate of Lin Ling'er's villa.

Arriving here, Lin Linger did not go down, but said to Li Jiayi: "Wu Chiren, go in directly!"

"No, you can go back!"

"No! We've already agreed, you can't go back on your word."

"What's the deal? I didn't agree to go to your house for dinner."

"Why didn't you agree? I just said if you take me home, I'll treat you to a meal. You took me home, which means you agreed."

Li Jiayi looked at Lin Ling'er speechlessly. Why did he feel that this girl was a bit of a rogue?

"Okay, go down now! I have other things to do."

"Okay! Let me treat you to a meal next time we meet, and you can't refuse then!"

"Let's talk about it when we meet!" Li Jiayi said, and drove away on the sled.

Li Jia found a secluded place, put away the sled, and then entered the space.

It was spring all year round in this space, so he didn't need to make any hot dishes. He just mixed a pig's head and a pig's liver and started eating.

After finishing his meal, seeing that it was still early, Li Jiayi went in to take a nap.

When he woke up, it was already half past one. He quickly got up, washed his face, and drove the sled to the military compound.

It was not until about eight o'clock in the evening that Li Jiayi delivered all the food and meat required by the military compound.

"Come on, have a piece of meat."

"Thank you, Auntie Tian."

Yes, Li Jiayi is having dinner at Lao Li’s house now. Because he is busy late, he eats late too. It is after eight o’clock before he starts eating.

It is the twelfth month of winter now, and it is also the time of the year when the daylight hours are the shortest.

"Great! That's great. Now everyone can have a good New Year." Old Li said with emotion.

It was already nine o'clock after dinner. Li Jiayi hurried home, as it was already dark at five o'clock.

Li Jiayi didn't get home until after nine o'clock. Needless to say, everyone in the family had already gone to bed.

At first everyone was worried about him, but Li Aimin said, "It's good enough that he doesn't cause harm to others."

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

Yes! What does Li Jiayi have to worry about? He is a devil, whoever meets him will be in trouble.

Of course, this refers to those who want to harm him.

After entering the house, going upstairs, and locking the door, Li Jiayi finally entered the space.

After going through the daily routine, Li Jiayi went to wash and take a shower.

Silent all night.

After breakfast the next morning, Li Jiayi rushed to the courtyard.

When he came over, the little black fat man Guo Detie had not come yet. He took advantage of this time to take out the peanuts, melon seeds and beef jerky in the space and put them down.

Guo Detie may have left early last night, and the stove in the house had been put out.

It just so happened that he had nothing to do, so he brought back some firewood from the yard.

Light the firewood and put it into the stove. When it is almost burned, add some coal.

After a short while, Li Jiayi had the fire burning brightly, and the room became warm instantly.

Just at this time, the fat black guy Guo Detie came in from outside, and when he saw him, he asked: "Boss, why did you come so early today?"

"It's still early. Don't you see what time it is?"

"Okay, I'll leave this to you. I have something else to do so I'll leave first."

"Okay, boss, you're busy."

"By the way, the food is in the house. You can just heat it up on the stove at noon."

"I know, boss."

Coming out of the courtyard, Li Jiayi thought for a while and drove the sled to the Pigeon City.

This time we went not to Deshengmen or Jianguomen, but to the Pigeon Market outside Fuxingmen.

People here are generally poor, so Li Jiayi plans to sell some sweet potatoes here today.

No matter whether it tastes good or not, as long as it can fill your stomach, this is probably the voice of most ordinary people.

"Don't miss it if you pass by. Fresh sweet potatoes are only 1 cent per pound."

"Little comrade, is your sweet potato sweet?"

"I'm sorry, these are sweet potatoes, they don't taste sweet. If you want something sweet, look somewhere else."
