Chapter 478 Jia Dongming awakens!

When Li Xidong heard Jia Dongming's question and thought of the real reason why he asked Jia Dongming for help, a sad expression suddenly appeared on his face. He introduced Jia Dongming in a heavy tone: "Comrade Dongming! Over the years, our branch has sacrificed hundreds of comrades to fight against enemy agents and maintain the stability of Dongcheng District."

"I originally wanted to send some fine grains and pork as solace to the families of these fallen comrades. This morning, when I heard about the types of New Year's goods that your security department distributed, I thought of giving you a call to ask if you could also help the bureau purchase some."

When Jia Dongming learned the reason why Li Xidong was buying New Year goods, he thought of his sacrificed comrades and immediately promised Li Xidong: "Director Li! If you want me to help you buy those New Year goods, as long as you tell me the specific types, I will ask my comrades to do me this favor even if I have to beg them."

When Li Xidong heard Jia Dongming's promise, his originally sad face suddenly showed a relieved expression, and he quickly thanked Jia Dongming: "Comrade Dongming! Thank you for supporting my work. Do you have time to come to the branch office? Let's discuss the specific purchase matters together?"

When Jia Dongming heard what Li Xidong said, he immediately said to Li Xidong: "Director Li! The Chinese New Year is the day after tomorrow. Tell me what you want to purchase directly on the phone, and I will contact my comrades immediately to save time running back and forth."

After hearing Jia Dongming's answer and thinking about the supplies he wanted to purchase, Li Xidong pondered for a moment and said to Jia Dongming, "Comrade Dongming! I want to send some lard to these martyrs' families. I wonder if your comrades have any?"

Jia Dongming owns a system supermarket. No matter what supplies he wants to buy, the system supermarket can provide it. When Jia Dongming learned about the supplies Li Xidong wanted to purchase, he did not immediately agree to Li Xidong's request. Instead, he pretended to ponder for a moment before saying to Li Xidong: "Director Li! You have given me a big problem, but in order to let those martyrs' families have a good new year, I will definitely go all out. Please see how much lard you want to purchase so that I can talk to my comrades."

When Li Xidong heard Jia Dongming's answer and thought about the number of martyrs' relatives in the branch, he said to Jia Dongming, "Comrade Dongming! Currently, there are 137 martyrs' relatives in our branch. I plan to give each family two kilograms of pig fat. Do you have any solution?"

When Jia Dongming learned the specific quantity that Li Xidong wanted to purchase, he did not immediately agree to it. Instead, he replied with embarrassment: "Director Li! I don't know if my comrade has pig fat, so I can't give you a satisfactory answer for the time being. I will contact my comrade first and ask him if he has pig fat, and then give you a specific reply."

Li Xidong was not surprised by Jia Dongming's answer. After all, pork fat was the most scarce commodity during that period.

When Li Xidong heard Jia Dongming's answer, he immediately smiled and said to Jia Dongming: "Comrade Dongming! Then you should contact your comrades as soon as possible. I'll be waiting for your reply in the office."

After Jia Dongming finished his call with Li Xidong, he put the phone back on the landline, thinking in his mind whether he should help the branch purchase this batch of lard.

This era is not like later generations. If the true origin of some things cannot be revealed, the consequences will be very serious. So Jia Dongming was very regretful at this time. In order to let his subordinates live a good life in the future, he ignored some key issues and acted too high-profile.

Realizing this problem, Jia Dongming began to think about rejecting Li Xidong. However, when he thought of the families of martyrs, he really couldn't say no to Li Xidong's request. After sitting in the office for more than ten minutes, he reached out for the phone and called Li Xidong.

"Hello! I'm Li Xidong. May I ask who this is?" The call was quickly connected. Before Jia Dongming could even start talking, Li Xidong's polite voice came over the phone. Jia Dongming heard Li Xidong's question and said to him, "Director Li! It's me, Jia Dongming."

"Comrade Dongming! Have you contacted your comrades regarding the matter of pig fat?" Li Xidong, who was on the other end of the phone, was delighted when he heard Jia Dongming's reply. He quickly asked Jia Dongming, "Comrade Dongming! Have your comrades got any result on the matter I asked you to do?"

When Jia Dongming heard Li Xidong's impatient inquiry, he thought of his plan and smiled and introduced it to Li Xidong: "Director Li! If you had called me two days earlier, my comrades would definitely be able to easily come up with several hundred kilograms of pig fat."

"During this period, because each department needs to distribute New Year's goods, the supplies on the farm where our comrades are located have almost been moved away. Now we can only take out 150 kilograms of pig fat at most. What do you think we should do about this matter?"

Li Xidong on the other end of the phone was disappointed when he learned that Jia Dongming could only get 150 kilograms of pig fat. He quickly asked Jia Dongming, "Comrade Dongming! Is it really only 150 kilograms? Is there no way to get a little more?"

Although purchasing several hundred kilograms of pork fat was a piece of cake for Jia Dongming, in this era, being too high-profile was tantamount to seeking death.

Jia Dongming heard Li Xidong's unwilling question and pretended to be embarrassed and said to Li Xidong: "Director Li! It's already the New Year, and all departments are actively purchasing New Year's goods in order to let the workers have a good New Year. My comrades are also under great pressure. They are very generous to me for being able to spare these."

When Li Xidong heard Jia Dongming's answer, he thought of the situation reported to him by the Logistics Department, and suddenly felt that his request to Jia Dongming was indeed a bit unreasonable.

Realizing this, Li Xidong quickly gave up the previous condolence plan and said to Jia Dongming with a smile: "Comrade Dongming! One hundred and fifty kilograms, that's one hundred and fifty kilograms. It's better to have it than not. When do you think the pig fat can be delivered to the branch?"

When Jia Dongming heard Li Xidong's question, he smiled and said to Li Xidong, "Director Li! Please arrange a car for me. I promise to deliver the lard to the branch office before I get off work."

When Li Xidong heard Jia Dongming's request, he answered without thinking, "Okay! I'll send you a car later. Please help me deliver the 150 kilograms of pig fat to the branch's logistics department before the evening."

When Jia Dongming heard Li Xidong's request, he answered very straightforwardly: "Director Li! There is absolutely no problem with this. I promise to deliver the lard to our branch before the end of the afternoon."
