I Wore It Back After 60 Years

Chapter 736 It's Urgent Again
Noticing the look in Li Xingxing's eyes, Comrade Lao Ji couldn't help but smile.

"Don't look, Xingxing, I'm not here to be a lobbyist for your father, I'm here to find you." He said.

Li Xiuhong immediately relaxed, with a faint smile on her face, "Are you looking for Xing Xing? Please come inside."

Although she didn't know each other, she looked unusual.

"Don't go in." Comrade Lao Ji waved his hand, raised his gray eyebrows and smiled at Li Xingxing: "I just heard you sue your father to your mother? Bad boy, thanks to your father asking me to take you to the inner cabinet turn around."

Li Xingxing jumped up on the spot: "Inner cabinet? Now?"

"Yes, now, come with me." Comrade Old Ji said.

"Wait a minute, I'll take the money, I want to buy a lot of things, and I'm determined to be a big collector!" Li Xingxing quickly rushed into the bedroom, and when he came out, he was carrying a half-new canvas satchel and an empty luggage bag.

He waved at Li Xiuhong: "Mother, when Brother Xiao Xia comes back, you can tell him!"

Out of the street, get in the car.

The car that the country arranged for Comrade Lao Ji was very old, and it took a while to start it.

Comrade Lao Ji sat side by side with Li Xingxing in the back seat. He took the initiative to extend his hand to Li Xingxing: "Come on, Comrade Li Xingxing, let's shake hands. Thank you for your help to the Shanghai Children's Welfare Institute."

"It should." Li Xingxing shook hands with him and then let go.

However, my heart hurts!

Comrade Lao Ji sighed: "It's really timely help, which alleviates the food shortage in the children's welfare home. Our food in Shanghai is in short supply again, and there is a risk of being out of stock at any time. Several major grain-producing provinces had poor harvests in autumn and winter last year. We really can’t support them, otherwise we wouldn’t have made the decision to distribute orphans across the country. When they were sent to Shanghai, we thought there would never be any problems in Beijing, Tianjin and Shanghai. However, because of the food supply problem, we couldn’t supply them. The needs of children's welfare institutions."

Li Xingxing was stunned: "Food is in short supply again? When patriots donate food, or the country imports food to the shore, which time does not go to Shanghai first? Why is it always in short supply?"

"Shanghai is a big city with a population of tens of millions. How much food do you need for a month?"

Hearing Comrade Old Ji's question, Li Xingxing shook his head: "I can't figure it out! Some have a high ration, more than 40 catties, and some have a low ration, which is for children, ten or eight catties."

"According to a population of 1000 million, the average per capita is [-] catties." Comrade Old Ji said.

Li Xingxing blurted out: "5000 million!"

Comrade Lao Ji nodded: "Yes, just to supply the rations of the citizens costs 5000 million catties. In fact, it's only a lot more, because the population exceeds 1000 million, and at the same time, we have to entertain overseas visitors. We must ensure that there are enough food every month. A supply of [-] million catties of grain."

"One hundred thousand tons!" Li Xingxing sighed.

Comrade Old Ji smiled bitterly: "Yes, 120 tons, at least [-] million tons a year. Shanghai is an industrial city, and the grain is shipped from major grain-producing provinces. When the harvest is good, it is not nervous. In the past two years... ..."

Li Xingxing understood very well: "Why don't we go to the cultural relics store."

"Why don't you go?" Comrade Lao Ji wondered.

Li Xingxing said euphemistically: "The food shortage is so big, and you are so worried, how can I have the nerve to interfere with your work just to give myself the opportunity to enter the cultural relics store to browse the cabinets?"

Comrade Lao Ji laughed: "I made an appointment with a few senior officials and begged them to find a way for us. Therefore, I am not here to buy antiques, but to take the opportunity to talk to them so that we can chat. After all, we need others. If there is no solution, it may be that there is something private and it is inconvenient to bring it up at the meeting."

Li Xingxing suddenly realized.

It turned out that she was taken by the way.
