Chapter 722 Transporting Grain
Chapter 722: Food Transport
At the automobile factory, since Chen Changan had enough prestige, the workers and their families were very supportive of Chen Changan finding a factory director.
Chen Changan didn't need to go there in person, he just needed to stand at the entrance of the residential area.
Everyone understood what Chen Changan meant, and they no longer felt the anxiety they had felt when they went out before.
Even if there is really no food in the granary in a few days, Chen Changan will find a way for them.
With Chen Changan at the car factory, there was no trouble at all.
Outside the car factory, the scene was quite different.
If there is a drone at this time, you will be able to see it from the air.
Countless people from all over the city began to gather at various grain stations.
Although the seven granaries that were burned were only in one district, they had little impact on other places.
But the people don’t think so. If there is no food here, they will definitely have to transfer food from other areas.
Where to get the grain from? Of course, from the nearest place.
Once the food is transferred away, they will be the ones most affected.
If you don't use the grain book to buy grain now, when will you be able to do so?
Although Chen Changan knew very well that the country had lost a lot of grain, it was not to the point where the people of Sijiu City would starve.
It’s no problem to transfer two days’ worth of food from other districts to meet the emergency needs.
This is just the district's reserves. This is a large city, so the reserves of other departments are also necessary.
Unfortunately, the people don’t know that they were the bravest firefighters last night, but this morning they became people preparing to steal food.
In the courtyard, Jia Zhang was madly yelling at Qin Huairu in the room.
"Don't waste time, do you have to wash these clothes?
Look at the time now. If you don’t go out now, you won’t be able to buy food today.”
"Mom, I told you, our granary was burned.
But you may not know that there are many granaries in the entire city.
Apart from anything else, our steel rolling mill has its own granary.
The amount of grain there is no less than that of an ordinary grain station. You can imagine that the grain warehouse at the automobile factory is even bigger.
This was not a few years ago. At that time, the country had no food and there was nothing we could do.
It’s different now. There is enough food stored in the city.
Even if there is a food shortage, we can transfer food from other places.
You have never seen the trucks in a car factory, right? So many trucks are driven out every day.
It's not the same as it was a few years ago. I wouldn't go out with you to buy food at this time.
What should I do with the children at home? There are so many people outside who need to buy food. I am worried if I take them with me, and I am even more worried if I don’t take them with me.”
"What are you worried about? Banggeng is already this big, can't he take good care of his two sisters?"
"You can go if you want to. I'm not going anyway. There's enough food at home to last for several days.
I will go when my family is really running out of food. At least I won’t have to squeeze in with so many people then.”
"you.."
Seeing that she couldn't convince Qin Huairu, Jia Zhang turned around and walked out.
He walked into the old man's house.
"He's such an old man, it looks like it's almost time to go to work.
Or I can ask an old lady to take the grain book and go with me to the grain station to buy grain.
Two people together can be companions at least, and they can look after each other if something happens."
Jia Zhang’s idea was simple: there were so many people outside buying food.
Jia Zhang didn't dare to make trouble and could only queue up obediently, but she could tell the queue was just like that.
It will definitely take a long time to shoot, and I might not be able to get back until noon.
If she didn't find someone to queue up with, and the two of them took turns queuing, she would not be able to hold on by herself.
The meaning of her words was very clear: your uncle had to go to work and your aunt had a bad heart.
If there is anything wrong in the queue, I can help take care of the old lady. I am doing this for your own good.
Who could keep secrets in the courtyard? Jia Zhang, who had a loud voice, had a conversation with Qin Huairu at home that was heard by the uncle.
“There are only two of us in my family, so we can’t eat much food, and we still have a lot at home.
I have already bought this month's supply of food, so I won't go to our house anymore."
Jia Zhang was speechless for a moment, but when she thought of the food in the eldest master's house, she immediately spoke.
"He's such an old man, our bacon is just ready to eat.
The food at home won’t last for a few more days, and Qin Huairu still has to go to work.
If I go to queue up at this time, I'm afraid I won't be able to buy food. Otherwise, could you lend me some food first?
When there aren’t that many people buying food in a few days, I’ll buy it back and return it to you.”
The old man immediately gave Jia Zhang a cold look, as they had been neighbors for many years.
It's fine if you play this trick on the new residents, but now you're playing the same trick on me?
"We eat cornmeal at home, are you used to it?
I think you should go to the backyard and see if Second Uncle wants to buy some food.
I'm afraid the food at Second Uncle's house is not enough, so you and Second Aunt should go together."
Jia Zhang suddenly became depressed. She glanced at the old man, turned around and left.
After seeing Jia Zhang leave, Auntie finally spoke.
“There’s not much food left at home, why don’t I go buy some food with Jia Zhang later.
What Jia Zhang said was right. At least when two people are together they have company.
I'll bring the medicine with me. If there's any problem, even if I can't do it myself, Jia Zhang can give me the medicine."
"You, we've been neighbors for so many years, how could you not know Jia Zhang?
Don’t look at her making a fuss now. If you are really ill, she will not trample on your medicine, then you are fine.”
"No way, it's not as exaggerated as you say."
"Anyway, if I say you can't go, then you can't go. Especially with Jia Zhang."
Jia Zhang hit a wall with the first uncle, and also hit a wall with the second uncle's house in the backyard.
Now the second uncle is the deputy director of the steel rolling mill, how could his family be short of food?
If the factory had not temporarily had no space for a tube-shaped building, we would have moved out long ago.
What is Jia Zhang's status that she could buy grain with the deputy director's lover?
Jia Zhang, who encountered obstacles everywhere, returned to the house with a dejected face. It would be fine if she didn't have to queue up, but if she really had to queue up for a whole day, she would not go.
As Jia Zhang left, the second aunt suddenly said.
"It must be very chaotic outside today. As the deputy director of the factory, why don't you go out and maintain order?
Or persuade the families of the factory workers not to join in the fun?"
After hearing what the second aunt said, the second uncle Liu Haizhong jumped up suddenly.
He put on the steel mill work clothes, put on the red armband, and walked out the door without looking back.
This is a good opportunity to show off in front of Director Li. Why didn’t I think of it before?
Recently, Director Li was obviously dissatisfied with him, and Second Uncle Liu Haizhong knew it.
It's been a while since we have been able to bring the seized supplies to the factory.
But it has been so many years, and most of the spoils have been seized, and there is nothing I can do.
I hope that by maintaining order today, I can leave a good impression on Director Li.
As the sky grew brighter, it was time to go to work and many grain station staff members received the notice.
There is no shortage of food in the city, and all food will be sold to the people who come to buy it.
The heavy-duty trucks produced by the automobile factory drove to the granary one by one.
The goods were unloaded in front of everyone, and the entire city suddenly became quiet.
