Chapter 665: Each Family’s Plan 1

After the Jiaodaokou Sub-district Office conducted a thorough investigation, they convened a general meeting in Courtyard No. 95 to announce the results of the investigation to all residents, thus making the source of the He family's meat clear.

Someone must have been eyeing the meat purchasing qualifications of He Daqing and his son. The father and son are eligible to purchase 13 kilograms of low-priced meat every month. Unfortunately, they were all rejected by He Daqing. After all, the Security Department has clear regulations that absolutely do not allow private resale.

Today, after listening to Li Guixiang's seemingly misleading words, these old women couldn't help but think of these things again.

You should know that when they learned that He Daqing and his father had a supply quota of 13 kilograms of affordable pork every month, more than half of the families in Courtyard No. 95 had visited them.

Although He Daqing rejected these guys who wanted to take advantage on the grounds that the Security Department had clear regulations, it is conceivable that these people must have been complaining about He Daqing in their hearts. In their minds, since He Daqing can buy cheap pork, they, the neighbors, should also benefit from it. As for whether He Daqing will be affected by this, these people don't care at all.

With Li Guixiang's shrewdness, how could she not guess what these old ladies were thinking? She deliberately sighed softly, "Now I guess He Daqing is the only one who can get a job quota in our No. 95 courtyard. As for whether Fang Dahu's wife and Jiang Cai'e went to work at the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill, everyone will know it as long as those who work at the steel rolling mill come back tonight. Well, if it's true, we really can't underestimate He Daqing. Maybe he still has a job quota now."

This time, after hearing what Li Guixiang said, the old ladies around did not object anymore. Yes, as long as those people who worked in the steel mill in the courtyard came back tonight, they would definitely know what was going on.

So that night, when the men in each household got off work, they were followed by the old women at home to question them. Especially the six or seven families with young people of marriageable age were particularly concerned about this matter.

However, the workers who worked at the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill did not see Jiang Cai'e and the other person in the factory at all. However, some people still took advantage of their good relationship with Fang Dahu and deliberately came to inquire about the situation.

Since He Daqing had already said it last night, there was no need to hide the matter from the outside world, so Fang Dahu directly told the other party that his wife and Jiang Cai'e were only temporary workers, and temporary workers at the canteen of the Security Department's training base.

Soon, the news spread throughout the entire No. 95 Siheyuan. Although Jiang Cai'e and her partner were not regular employees of the steel mill as everyone had previously guessed, being able to work as temporary workers in the canteen of the Security Department's training base was quite good, especially since the welfare benefits of the canteen at the Security Department's training base were far better than those of the workers at the steel mill.

In the side room of the front yard, Zhou Erniu looked gloomily at his eldest son who was sitting lazily across from the square table. He took a deep puff of his cigarette and said in a low voice, "Xiaoyong, can you fight for your dignity? What did I tell you in the beginning? I reminded you again and again that you must behave well. As long as you can become an activist, you will have the hope of getting a job quota first. But you bastard are so lazy all day long that you missed such a good opportunity. Do you know how much a regular worker quota at the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill costs now? Someone has already offered 800!"

Zhou Yong raised his head lazily: "Dad, don't just sit there and talk without any back pain. Go to the steelmaking furnace and try it yourself. It's so hot every day that people can't breathe. And you still want to perform well? What a performance. Which of those activists hasn't fainted from the heat several times? They are simply playing with their lives."

Zhou Erniu slammed the table in anger and scolded, "You always make excuses for yourself. Why can others persevere while you keep complaining? Do you know that if you work hard for two months, you can get a job quota at the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill? You bastard, in order to get you a job quota, I even forced He Daqing to help with a few other people, and finally Director Wang of the neighborhood committee criticized me at the whole courtyard meeting. Now you are still making excuses. It's because your mother spoiled you."

Zhou Yong sneered disdainfully, "Dad, stop scolding me. Think about the stupid things you did. I'm worried about you. I just can't figure it out. Since you think He Daqing can get a job, why don't you secretly ask him for help? Do you think that if you guys force He Daqing together, he will agree to help? Besides, you also know that a job quota at the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill costs 800 yuan now. Do you think you can get it from He Daqing with just a few words? I don't know what beautiful things you are thinking about. How many people can't find a way to get a job with money in their hands, but you are still thinking about getting it for free. You are really ugly and wishful thinking."

Before Zhou Erniu could get angry, his wife quickly started to scold him: "Xiaoyong, how do you talk to your father? Isn't your father thinking of saving the money for the job so that you can get married? Who would have thought that He Daqing would have no neighborly feelings at all."

Zhou Yong waved his hands weakly: "Come on, you are right, you are right, but now that He Daqing has been offended, he has even resigned as the manager. This time we should give up."

Zhou Erniu was so angry at his son that his face turned blue. He cursed in a low voice: "I am so angry at you, you bastard."

Zhou Erniu's wife quickly told her husband what she had found out about Jiang Cai'e and the other person, and then looked at him hopefully: "Boss, do you think it's possible to ask He Daqing to buy a temporary worker quota in the canteen of the Security Department Training Base? You have seen how much stuff He Daqing and his father brought back during the New Year and other holidays, not only pork and beef, but also flour, rice and imported sugar. I have found out clearly that temporary workers in the canteen of the Security Department Training Base now make more than 20 yuan a month. Besides, He Daqing is now the director of the canteen. If there is an opportunity to become a regular employee in the future, it will be a matter of a word from He Daqing."

After hearing his wife's words, Zhou Erniu couldn't help but feel regretful. Now he also regretted very much that he had instigated those people in the courtyard to force He Daqing to help. Now he had obviously offended He Daqing, so how could he agree to sell the job quota to his son?
