Chapter 319: Fake, Prepare

"Son, is what your elder sister said true?" Ye Xin asked.

Li Jiayi scratched his head and said, "Mom, this may be more true than what my eldest sister said. Let me put it this way! In the district public security bureau, from the director to the police officers below, there is no one who doesn't know me, not to mention the relationship."

"Ah! Son, are you telling the truth?" Li Aimin asked in surprise.

"Of course it's true. My sister will know it when the time comes." Li Jiayi said with a smile.

"Brother, do you think I can go to the district public security bureau after I graduate?" the second sister asked at this time.

Li Jiayi glanced at her and said, "Forget it! Besides, don't you like sitting in the office?"

Li Jiayi knew what her second sister was thinking. She thought that since her brother had such a good relationship with the district public security bureau, if she went there, she could do whatever she wanted.

"That's right, girl, from now on, just find a place where you can sit as an office and go there! Don't think about those trivial things." Ye Xin tapped Li Jialin on the forehead and said.

This is the difference between the eldest sister and the second sister. If she is the eldest sister, the more others take care of her, the more she will do.

And what about my second sister? If someone takes care of her, she will probably take advantage of it.

The next morning, Li Jiayi drove his tricycle to the district public security bureau.

Today was not the day for delivering meat and food, so after arriving at the district bureau, Li Jiayi went in carrying a ten-jin jar of wine.

In October last year, the clay pot factory had already fired the wine jars he wanted, and then Li Jiayi asked for a batch of five-jin and ten-jin wine jars.

The jar of wine that Li Jiayi brought today was brewed after he got a large wine jar that could hold 500 kilograms.

You should know that Li Jiayi put a hundred-year-old ginseng in each of these 500-jin wine jars!

In other words, this jar of wine is not only ginseng wine, but also twenty years old.

"Boom boom boom!"

"Come in."

Li Jiayi pushed the door open and went in.

"It's you, kid! I thought there was some emergency." Director Hu said with a smile when he saw Li Jiayi.

"Director Hu." Li Jiayi called out and put the jar of wine on the desk.

Director Hu looked at Li Jiayi, then at the wine jar and asked, "What are you doing? Are you trying to bribe me?"

Li Jiayi curled his lips and said, "If I want to bribe you, I can at least give you a hundred or eighty large yellow croakers, or a few thousand or tens of thousands of dollars. A jar of sorghum wine that I brewed myself can also be called a bribe."

"Hahaha, I just like your personality."

Are you kidding? Li Jiayi has been dealing with Director Hu for several years. How could he not know what kind of person Director Hu is?

You know, every time he comes to deliver something, he has to sit here for a while.

Of course I’ve given gifts as gifts before, but they were always a bottle of sesame paste or a bottle of sesame salt or something like that.

"That's not right! Today is not the day to deliver things! What's the matter with you coming here?"

"It's true." Li Jia nodded.

"Speak up! As long as it doesn't violate principles or break the law, it's fine."

"Not really. It's just that my eldest sister is about to graduate from technical secondary school! I originally wanted her to go to the Ministry of Light Industry, but she didn't want to. She said she didn't want to sit in an office all her life and wanted to work in the public security system. That's why I came to you."

"That's it?"

"Yup!"

"Why would you go all the way here for such a small matter? You can just go to a supply and marketing cooperative and give me a call."

"That won't work! When you ask someone to do something for you, you must be sincere first and say it in person."

"You!" Director Hu shook his head, not knowing what to say to this kid.

"Okay, I'll have someone send a letter over there in a bit. Please write down your eldest sister's name and class."

"Okay." Li Jiayi said, took out a piece of letter paper from his pocket and handed it over.

"It turns out that you have been prepared for this!" Director Hu said after taking the letter and taking a look at it.

"Since we are doing something, we must prepare in advance!"

"Okay, then just come to the police station! But you have to add one! Your sister doesn't want to sit in the office, so if she comes to the police station, she can only join the Public Security Brigade or the Criminal Police Brigade."

"No problem, Director Hu, it's best to let her choose for herself. I am a big sister and I am different from other girls."

"Oh!"

Li Jiaqi is indeed different from other girls. She is beautiful, kind-hearted and loving, but not pedantic and thoughtful.

"Director Hu, you will know this later. Let me put it this way, no matter which department she goes to, she will definitely be able to do her job well."

"Okay, then let me see her when she comes over."

"it is good."

After chatting with Director Hu for a while, Li Jiayi went to Political Commissar Huang's office again and came out after staying there for a few minutes.

Next was the deputy director's office and several team leaders' offices. He knew them all, so he had to say hello anyway!
It took more than an hour to go through this circle, and it was a bit late to go to school at this time.

So he skipped classes, and yes, today was not Sunday and there was no holiday.

But now Li Jiayi skipping classes is like a common thing.

This is not the first time he has skipped class, he doesn’t even know how many times it has been.

If it were any other student, he would have been expelled long ago for skipping classes so many times, but Li Jiayi would never do that.

Because all the teachers in their class knew that Li Jiayi had already reached the graduation level.

He has translated countless amounts of material this year, and his level is even higher than that of some teachers.

For students like this, skipping classes is no big deal, and even not coming to school is no big deal.

Let me put it this way! If Mr. Wang had not allowed him to graduate early, he would have applied for graduation long ago.

In the words of Teacher Wang, it’s okay if you don’t attend classes, but don’t graduate early. Translating more materials can also be considered learning.

To put it bluntly, he is too young. Teacher Wang is worried that he will not be old enough to work after graduation and will learn bad things.

This is also Li Jiayi's fault. If he had told Teacher Wang that he already had a job, this would not have happened.

Of course, not graduating is not without its benefits. In the past year, Li Jiayi has made a lot of money by translating materials!

There is no other way, who can help him translate faster! There is a space system that can cheat, he can translate ten books, while others may not be able to translate one.

He didn't mind the money, but who would complain about having too much money? And it was honest money.

Now everyone in the hospital, including people in nearby hospitals, knows that he makes a lot of money by translating materials!
So now they can eat as much meat as they want in their family. If you ask, they will tell you that they buy it at the pigeon market. As for the money, of course it is earned from translating materials.

After leaving the district bureau, Li Jiayi thought for a while and went out of the city.

He was not going to Pigeon City. After leaving the city, Li Jiayi drove north and soon arrived at a place called Beishatan.

There is a yard three hundred meters away from the village.

The yard is very big, covering at least two thousand square meters. Of course, this place belongs to Li Jiayi!

The land was bought by Li Jiayi from the village, with a title deed, and the house was built by someone hired by Li Jiayi.

The house deed was also processed.

He drove the tricycle to the gate, stopped it, went up and knocked on the door, and the gate opened quickly.

A young man appeared in front of Li Jiayi.

"You are here, please come in."

"Where is your master?" Li Jiayi asked.

"My master is busy."

"Take me over there and have a look."

"Ok."

The young man brought Li Jiayi to a house and opened the door in advance.

This is a workshop with all kinds of bottles and jars. Of course, they are still just embryos at present.

An old man and several middle-aged people were busy, some were making embryos, and some were drawing things on the embryos.

"Master Yan."

"Boss, you're here?" the old man hurried over and asked.

"Well! How's it going?"

"We have made more than a hundred pieces so far. Do you want to take them away now?"

"So many?" Li Jiayi looked at Master Yan in surprise and asked.

"Yes."

"Master Yan, you should know that I don't want those crudely made ones. I want the finest ones."

"Don't worry, sir. I will definitely satisfy you."

"Okay, then take me to see it."

"Okay, please follow me, sir."

Master Yan took Li Jiayi to another room.

This place is like a showroom, with rows of antique shelves filled with exquisite porcelain.

Yes, Li Jiayi is falsifying information because he is playing a big game, a game that will make wealthy Americans regret their whole lives.

As for this Master Yan, he is a master of counterfeiting! No one can tell the authenticity of the things he makes.

But even horses can stumble. Last December, one of Master Yan's apprentices took an antique to the black market to trade.

Because this piece of porcelain is so rare and can definitely be called a national treasure, several people started fighting over it.

Those who tried to snatch this porcelain are all famous people in the circle.

During the scramble, the porcelain fell to the ground and broke into pieces, and then someone discovered an unnoticed word "Yan" inside the porcelain.

It was this word that made these people realize that they had been cheated and that this was fake antique porcelain.

Master Yan's disciple wanted to run away when he saw the situation was not good, but he failed. As a result, the matter was brought to the attention of Master Long.

It is normal to buy fake goods on the black market, but the sellers will not guarantee you.

In other words, both parties are willing to fight and be beaten. Of course, in this case, the prices of these things sold will not be too high.

There is another type, which is guaranteed to be authentic, and the seller will ask for a very high price. As long as you accept the price, you can buy it.

In fact, to put it bluntly, it is similar to Liulichang. There are also some authentic antique shops in Liulichang!

The reason why this matter came to the attention of Lord Long was because Master Yan's disciple assured others that it was genuine, but it turned out to be false.

This broke the rules of the black market, and then Lord Long followed the clues and captured Master Yan and his apprentice in one fell swoop.

You have to know that breaking the rules of the black market is very serious. At the very least, your hands and feet will be broken, and at the worst, you will be buried directly.

It happened that Li Jiayi went to the black market to play, and when he learned about this, he rescued the person from Long Ye.

Now Master Yan and his disciples are all working for Li Jiayi.

Li Jiayi provided them with food and accommodation, and also received a considerable salary every month.

For example, Master Yan can get a salary of one thousand yuan every month.

The salary of his apprentices ranges from one hundred to six hundred, depending mainly on their skills.

But even though he was just a handyman, Li Jiayi paid him a hundred yuan.

This is also one of the reasons why Master Yan and others are wholeheartedly working for Li Jiayi. As for the other reason, of course, it is because Li Jiayi saved their lives.

"Boss, there are more than a hundred pieces of porcelain here. The first three hundred pieces can be made in a month at most."

"very good."

Li Jiayi asked Master Yan to make 500 fake antiques before July.

"By the way, Master Yan, there won't be any problem with these porcelains, right?"

This is what Li Jiayi is more concerned about. As for whether it is more or less, it doesn’t matter.

"Don't worry, sir. I can't guarantee anything else, but these porcelains are absolutely the same as the real ones."

"Okay, I believe Master Yan."

Li Jiayi picked up an item at random and took a look. After several years of contact with antiques, Li Jiayi can now be considered a half-master of antique appraisal.

He can basically tell whether most antiques are real or fake just by taking a look at them.

But to be honest, if he didn't know that these were fake, he really wouldn't be able to tell what was fake.

"Master Yan, have someone put these antiques on the tricycle. I want to take them away now."

"Good owner."

"By the way, the remaining 300 pieces must be completed before July 15th, and then I will give you two months of paid vacation."

"Thank you, Boss. Don't worry, I will complete the task."

"Ok!"

Master Yan quickly called a few apprentices over and started putting things onto the tricycle.

More than a hundred pieces of porcelain of various sizes soon filled the box.

As for why it could hold so much, it was because there was a lot of wheat straw inside.

This will prevent the porcelain from breaking.

In fact, it is not necessary, because Li Jiayi will soon put these porcelains into the space.

But Master Yan and the others didn't know! They thought Li Jiayi used this to pull it away, so they put so much wheat straw.

"Master Yan, I'll be leaving first. You guys go ahead and get busy."

"Good owner."

Li Jiayi started the tricycle, and before he drove away, all the porcelain in the carriage was put into the space.

Now all that was left in the carriage was the straw.

After returning to the city, Li Jiayi did not go home, but drove his tricycle directly to Uncle Wu's house.

When they arrived at Grandpa Wu's house, Li Jiayi took out a few pieces of porcelain from his cabinet. He took them at random.

Of course, the porcelain was placed in the carriage first. After parking the tricycle, Li Jiayi went over and knocked on the door.

In the imperial capital, especially in courtyard houses like this, you can't just knock on the door randomly. Let's put it this way, before knocking, it's best to check if there is a door knocker on the door.

It doesn’t matter if there is no door knocker, but as long as there is a door knocker, you must hold the door knocker to knock on the door.

This door knocker is equivalent to the doorbell in later generations. It is very impolite to knock on the door instead of knocking on it.

Of course, there is one situation where you don't need to ring the door knocker, and that is to announce a death.

Generally when you go to someone's house, whether you knock or bang on the door, it's best to knock three times, because people only keep knocking or banging on the door when there's a death.

The door opened quickly and it was Mr. Wu who opened it.

"plus one."

"It's me, Uncle Wu."

"Why are you here at this time?" asked Uncle Wu.

"I want Master Wu to help me look at a few things."

"Oh! Where is the thing?"

“Let’s talk after we go in first!”

"it is good."

Li Jiayi drove a tricycle into the yard and took out five pieces of porcelain from the carriage.

After placing all five pieces of porcelain on the stone table in the yard, Li Jiayi said, "Mr. Wu, please."

"Okay, I'll go in and get my things first."

"Ok!"

Uncle Wu went into the room, took out gloves and a magnifying glass, then sat down and began to look at the five pieces of porcelain.

Li Jiayi was not in a hurry and just sat beside and watched. After about half an hour, Grandpa Wu finally put the things down.

Let’s put it this way, this is the first time since he met Master Wu that he has seen Master Wu take so long to look at something.

"Master Wu, how is it?"

"Plus one! These are all priceless treasures! They are all big-opening items."

"Huh!" Li Jiayi was speechless and shocked at the same time. He didn't expect that Master Yan was so powerful.

"Master Wu, I noticed you were watching for such a long time just now, what's going on?"

"I didn't expect to come across such good treasures, and I came across five of them at once."

"I see. I thought you saw something wrong."

"No." Uncle Wu shook his head.

Li Jiayi is very excited now! Even Master Wu couldn't tell that this was fake.

Of course, Li Jiayi still felt uneasy if only Master Wu was watching the room alone.

"Master Wu, can you please ask a few more people to come over and take a look? As you can see, these five pieces of porcelain are all good stuff, so I would like to have a few more people take a look at them before putting them away."

"No problem! Let me call some people who specialize in porcelain over here."

"Yeah! Thank you, Master Wu."

"You're being too polite, aren't you? If we have to thank you, it's us who should thank you. If it weren't for you, to be honest, I don't know how I would have gotten through those three years."

"Master Wu, that's not the case. Besides, I didn't give it to you for free. Didn't you also exchange things for it?"

Although Li Jiayi said so, Mr. Wu can't think that way!
What was the situation at that time? It was a time when even money could not buy anything.

If someone is willing to sell things to you, it is a great favor, because those treasures cannot be eaten or drunk.

It can be said that if someone is willing to exchange food with you, it is a great favor.

"Okay, let's not talk about this for now. Wait for me at home for a while. I'll go call someone."

"Ok."

In less than half an hour, Grandpa Wu came back, and with him came three old people.

Li Jiayi had also seen these three old men, but he was not very familiar with them, because they also exchanged food and meat from Li Jiayi. But Li Jiayi had not spoken a few words to them, after all, they had not had much contact.

The things they exchanged were not given by Li Jiayi to each family one by one. Instead, Li Jiayi took a list from Grandpa Wu and put the things in the courtyard, and they went to pick them up according to the list.

Even the antiques and large and small yellow croakers they gave were passed on by Master Wu.

"Jiayi, someone has called you over."

"Gentlemen, thank you for your help." Li Jiayi said to the three old men while clasping his fists.

"It's no trouble, it's just a piece of cake."

Then the three people began to identify the five pieces of porcelain, and in the blink of an eye another half an hour had passed.

Together with Uncle Wu, the four of them discussed repeatedly, and all kinds of porcelain knowledge came out of their mouths.

In the end, they concluded that all five pieces of porcelain were authentic, and they specifically instructed Li Jiayi to keep them well.

In this case, it is estimated that it will only be after the 21st century that machines will be able to identify it!
However, using machines can only identify the age, and even that may not be accurate.

You know, there are no instruments now! Not to mention foreign countries, not only are there no instruments, but even antique appraisers are probably not as many as in China.

Of course, this doesn’t mean that there are no great antique appraisers abroad, it’s just that there aren’t that many of them.

You have to know that the protection of antiques abroad is many times stronger than in China.

They have had a national museum for many years, and it contains many domestic treasures.

There is a reason why there are few appraisers. That is because the history of foreign countries is relatively short, especially the United States, which has only been established for a few years! Where does the history come from?

But there is one thing you have to say, that is, they are really rich.

After getting confirmation from several masters, Li Jiayi took the porcelain and left, then drove to Liulichang.

He wants to buy some boxes for porcelain here. Nowadays, the boxes for antiques are all handmade!

Although the boxes from later generations look exquisite, they are far inferior to the handmade boxes of this era.

Li Jiayi went to a shop in Liulichang that specializes in antique boxes and directly customized 500 of them.

The boxes are divided into three types: large, medium and small. Li Jiayi asked for two hundred large ones, two hundred medium ones, and one hundred small ones.

It was exactly the number of porcelains he asked Master Yan to make.

Five hundred boxes cannot be made in a day or two, fortunately Li Jiayi is not in a hurry.

And they also guarantee that it will be completed before July 15th.

After paying the deposit, Li Jiayi went home, but at that time, there was no one at home.

Those who were going to work went to work, and those who were going to school went to school, except Li Jiayi, who skipped school, who stayed at home.

After entering the space to eat something, Li Jiayi took a nap in the space.

At around two o'clock in the afternoon, Li Jiayi drove out on his tricycle and went to the woolen mill.

He was also making preparations in advance. Only when everything was done well could he go out with peace of mind.

"Knock knock knock." Li Jiayi knocked on the door of Director Qiao's office.

"Come in."

"Director Qiao."

When Director Qiao saw that it was Li Jiayi, he smiled and said, "I knew you would be here soon, but I didn't expect you to come so soon."

"There's nothing I can do! I'm afraid if I come too late, the spots will be taken by others." Li Jiayi shrugged and said.

"You!" Director Qiao opened the drawer and took out two employment forms.

"Don't worry! I've prepared everything for you a long time ago. No one can touch you!"

"Thank you, Director Qiao."

"Why are you thanking me? You should graduate soon and come back to work!"

"No problem! There's only one year left! It's almost the same time every year."

"That's right." Director Qiao nodded and said, "By the way, pork is relatively cheap now. Can you send more to the factory every week?"

Li Jiayi touched his chin and said, "Director, it's okay for me to send more, but if I send too much, will the higher-ups say anything?"

"Hey, what can I say? The most I can say is that the factory's efficiency is a little low, so the higher-ups called me over to scold me."

"Okay! Now that you've said that, what else can I say?"

In fact, the woolen mill has a lot of expenses every month!

The meat processing plant has also begun to supply pork to various factories, but the amount is not much. For example, a large factory like the woolen spinning mill with 15,000 to 16,000 employees only supplies 5,000 kilograms of meat every month.

It seems that there are a lot more people than residents, but don’t forget, this is a factory. What kind of work does a factory do?
For residents who do not work and stay at home every day, there will be no problem as long as they have food to eat.

But the workers can’t do that! If the workers don’t get enough nutrition or lack oil and water, it will cause big problems.

The woolen mill is a little better, there is not too much heavy physical work. But factories like steel rolling mills basically have heavy physical work.

In a place like this, if you don't eat enough and your stomach is lacking in oil and water, your legs will probably become weak when you work.

"How about every Friday?"

"Five thousand kilograms? That's 20,000 kilograms a month. Although pork is cheap now, it still costs one dollar a kilogram."

"Hey, how much is 20,000 kilograms? It's not even as much as I spent on 2,000 kilograms before." Director Qiao said indifferently.

"Director Qiao, things seem different now than before, right?"

Li Jiayi heard this from the bakery. During the three difficult years, the factory did not make any money, and it was even allowed to lose money, and the higher-ups would not pursue the matter.

But now the quota has been restored, even in each factory.

In this case, if the efficiency is still not as good as before, the heads of each factory will be held accountable.

“It’s different, but only when employees are well fed can efficiency be higher!”

"Are you sure?"

Director Qiao smiled and said, "Okay, let me tell you the truth! Our factory has completed the tasks for three quarters of this year in the first half of the year. In other words, in less than three months, our factory will have completed this year's tasks. The profits earned later will be extra. In this case, why don't we let the employees eat better?"

"Director, are you telling the truth?"

"Of course it's true. I can't lie to you about this. If you don't believe me, you can ask your parents."

"That's right." Li Jia nodded.

Li Aimin and Ye Xin, one manages the warehouse and the other works in the publicity department, must be clear about the situation in the factory.

"To be honest, you have contributed a lot to this! If it weren't for the pork you provided, so that everyone could eat well and have the strength to work, we would never have achieved such results."

"Director, this is what I should do. After all, I am also a member of the factory." Li Jiayi scratched his head and said.

"Hahaha, yes, yes, you are also from our factory."

After Director Qiao finished speaking, he looked at Li Jiayi and asked, "You are now at the administrative level 28, right?"

"Yes, Director."

Last year, Li Jiayi was promoted two levels, from level 30 to level 28, and his salary is 27.5 yuan per month.

Although the salary is not high, it is a serious administrative level.

"Well, I'll raise your rank by two levels, to administrative level 26. I'll have someone give the documents to your parents and ask them to bring them back for you."

"Thank you, director."

Administrative level 26! It is equivalent to level 8 clerk, with a monthly salary of 33 yuan.

The most important thing is that this is equivalent to the salary of a technical secondary school student, and he believes that when he graduates, his salary will definitely be higher than that of a technical secondary school student who becomes a full-time employee.

"What are you thanking me for? This is all as I should do. If you hadn't actually started working, your rank would have been raised long ago. Don't worry, I'm keeping all of this in mind."

"Ok!"

Administrative level 26! Equivalent to level 8 clerk, so his salary is higher than that of big brother Li Chengqian!
You should know that when my brother first started working, he was a level 10 clerk and was paid the same salary as a regular employee, which was 27.5 yuan per month.

Now he has been promoted to a level nine clerk, with a monthly salary of 30 yuan, while his salary is now 33 yuan, which is 3 yuan more than his eldest brother's per month.

Although he doesn't care about this little money, it's his salary! How to realize a person's value is best reflected in his salary.

After coming out of Director Qiao’s office, Li Jiayi did not leave, but drove his tricycle to the first canteen.

The factory only provides one meal at noon and no dinner. Although people in the cafeteria don’t go home, there is nothing to do in the afternoon.

That's how it is in a factory. You can stay if you have nothing to do, but you can't leave unless you get a note or a leave note.

When Li Jiayi came over, everyone was staying in the cafeteria because there were several large ceiling fans above the cafeteria.

Since no one is eating now, it is of course impossible to open all of them, but it is no problem to open one.

Everyone stayed in the cafeteria just to enjoy the fan.

About twenty people were fanning themselves, drinking tea or water, and chatting.

"Uncle Liao." Li Jiayi shouted as he came in.

Liao Kai had his back to him and turned his head quickly when he heard the voice.

"plus one."

"Ok!"

"Why are you here at the factory at this time?"

You know, today is not the day to deliver meat! And Li Jiayi basically won’t come to the factory unless he delivers meat.

If that's the case, then he must have come to the factory for something else.

"Yes, I came to the factory to do some work and came to see you by the way!"

When Liao Kai heard what Li Jiayi said, he didn't believe it at all. He saw him several times a day and he even came to the factory to see him specially. Why didn't he believe it?
"Really? What do you want me to do?" Liao Kai asked.

"Uncle Liao, there's really nothing to do. I just came to see you."

"You see me eight hundred times a day. You come to the factory to do business and come to see me. Do you think I should believe you?"

"Uh!"

"Okay! Actually, I don't have anything to do. Now that I'm done with my work, I have nowhere to go, so I came to see you."

"Why didn't you say so earlier?"

"Hey, hey, doesn't that sound better?"

"Bullshit, you almost scared me." Liao Kai rolled his eyes at Li Jiayi.

"Okay, it's all my fault."

Someone made room for Li Jiayi, and he sat down. Then he took out a box of Daqianmen cigarettes from his schoolbag.

"Uncle Liao, give it to everyone."

"You don't smoke, but you bring such good cigarettes with you when you go out." After saying this, Liao Kai picked up the cigarettes, opened them and distributed them to the people in the cafeteria.

For Li Jiayi, Daqianmen cigarettes are the worst. If it weren't for the Class B cigarette ticket that only allowed him to buy Daqianmen at most, he probably wouldn't buy it.

Even though he looks down on Daqianmen, to others, it is definitely a good cigarette.

You know, a pack of Daqianmen cigarettes costs 35 cents, and you also need a Class B cigarette ticket.

In this era when the average monthly income is less than ten yuan, how many people would be willing to smoke Daqianmen cigarettes?
If you calculate it based on one pack per day, and thirty days in a month, that would be ten dollars and fifty cents.

Don't forget, buying Daqianmen not only requires money, but also a ticket, a Class B cigarette ticket.

Those who could get Class B cigarette coupons were at least section-level cadres, such as Li Aimin.

Li Aimin was promoted again this year and is now a deputy section chief at the 17th administrative level. His monthly salary is 99 yuan, but he only has two Class B cigarette coupons every month.

When I was at level 18, I only had one Class B cigarette ticket every month, which equals ten Class B cigarette tickets if you break it up.

It is estimated that by the time he reaches the 16th grade, he will only be able to get three packs of Class B cigarette coupons every month.

It can also be seen from here that even Class B cigarette coupons have nothing to do with ordinary workers.

Unless you do a good job or get an advanced award, the factory leaders will reward you with a few Class B cigarette coupons.

Li Jiayi rolled his eyes at Liao Kai's words and ignored him.

You know, Liao Kai smoked Daqianmen cigarettes! As for where he got the cigarette tickets, need I tell you? Of course, Li Jiayi gave them to him.

And sometimes he would be given a few Class A cigarette coupons.

Liao Kai is much more ostentatious than Li Jiayi. Every time he buys Zhonghua cigarettes, he will look for people to chat with.

Moreover, when chatting, he wanted to keep the Zhonghua cigarettes in his hand all the time and not put them in his pocket.

After staying in the cafeteria until about four o'clock, Li Jiayi stood up and said, "Uncle Liao, I'm going to go see my brother and go back together in the evening."

"Okay, let's go!"

My eldest brother works in the Security Department as an internal security officer.

There isn't much to do every day. Most of the time I'm on patrol. It's almost time to get off work, so I shouldn't have to patrol anymore.

Sure enough, as soon as I arrived at the security department, I saw my brother coming back with several security personnel.

"Big brother."

"Jiayi, why are you here?" the eldest brother asked and ran over quickly.

"I came to the factory to do some work, and came to see you by the way."

"Let's go and talk over there." Li Chengqian said, pointing to an open space.

"it is good."

Li Chengqian took two bricks and placed them on the ground, and the two men sat on the bricks.

At this time, Li Jiayi took out a pack of Daqianmen cigarettes and handed it over.

Li Chengqian took over and said, "Smoking is not allowed in the factory."

"Okay! By the way, big brother, when are you going to tell your family about what happened between you and Sister Qingmin?"

Last year, Li Chengqian often went out early and came back late, so Li Jiayi took the opportunity to investigate. Unexpectedly, he was in a relationship with Sun Qingmin.

However, Li Jiayi did not tell his family and just made up an excuse to get away with it.

Of course, this was the request of his eldest brother Li Chengqian, so Li Jiayi had no choice but to agree.

"I'm not old enough to get married yet, so let's wait a little longer!"

"Brother, it seems that Grandpa Sun and Aunt Sun don't know either. Didn't Sister Qingmin tell the family?"

"No, it was Qingmin who suggested this. Don't tell my family yet."

Li Jiayi touched his chin and said, "Sister Qingmin is probably afraid that we won't agree!"

"That is the reason." Li Chengqian nodded and said.

"Brother, it's nothing! Although her family was in a difficult situation, it's much better now!"

Although Grandpa Sun doesn't have a job, he cleans the street office, and Grandma Sun makes matchboxes to supplement the family income.

In addition, Sun Qingmin now has a job. Like her older brother, she is also a level nine clerk and earns 30 yuan a month.

The eldest brother looked at Li Jiayi and said, "You! You only look at the present. Why don't you think about what her family situation will be like after we get married?"

"Uh! This..."

Yes! Her family is much better off now, but that's because Sun Qingmin is working.

After Sun Qingmin gets married, things will return to the way they were before, and they will have to support her.

I guess it’s because of this that Sun Qingmin is afraid that this side will not agree!
"This is actually very easy to solve! Sun Qingmei is the same age as me, and she will graduate from junior high school in two years. I can just find her a job by then."

"But what about before she started working?" Li Chengqian asked.

"Brother, why are you so stupid? Before she starts working, please help her out!"

"Look, big brother, Grandpa Sun cleans the house and earns more than ten yuan a month, and Aunt Sun pastes matchboxes and earns a few yuan a month."

"In this case, it should be at least 20 yuan a month! After Sister Qingmin marries you, there will be four people in her family, and they won't even be considered a poor household. If you can give a little extra, it will definitely be enough for them to live on."

"Jia Yi, you are right. Let me talk to her later."

"Yeah!" Li Jia nodded and said, "I'm just afraid that my mother will matchmake for you."

Li Jiayi was not worrying for nothing. He knew very well what kind of person Ye Xin was.

My eldest brother is already 19 years old this year and will be of marriageable age next year, so Ye Xin will definitely take some action.

In the city, Li Chengqian only has two elders, Li Aimin and her. If she doesn't worry about it, who will?

"No way?" Li Chengqian was a little anxious.

"I definitely will. Just wait and see if you don't believe me."

"What should I do?"

"What else can we do? We can just take it one step at a time and wait and see what happens."

"But……"

Before Li Chengqian could finish his words, Li Jiayi interrupted him and said, "There is no but now. We can only think of a solution based on the situation."

"Okay! You have to help me then."

Li Chengqian thought he was fearless, but he was also afraid of someone. He was not afraid of his parents, nor his uncle Li Aimin, but his aunt Ye Xin.

"Brother, how can I help you! That's my mother! Do you think that's my father?"

Li Chengqian scratched his hair and said, "No big deal, I'll just confess."

"Ugh! Brother, seeing you like this, I thought you would resist!"

"Resist? Are you kidding? Why don't you resist?" Li Chengqian asked.

Li Jiayi shrugged and said, "I would like to resist, but I'm not in a relationship."

"How old are you? Are you thinking about falling in love?"

"Brother, do you know what it means that if you have ambition, you are not too old. If I want to, it is not impossible."

It was soon time to get off work at the woolen mill, and Li Jiayi had originally planned to go back with his elder brother.

But this guy stood up suddenly and then disappeared with a whoosh, which made Li Jiayi speechless.

There are really some people of the opposite sex who are so inhumane. Once he has a girlfriend, he doesn't even want his younger brother anymore.

Li Jiayi could only ride the tricycle over and arrive at the gate first.
