My Siheyuan Shelter

Chapter 346 Canteen Reform
"Okay, then I'll come over tomorrow morning."

Xu Ting agreed very simply. As for the pair of children, she can prepare the meals first, then put them in the refrigerator, and heat them up when eating.

"Thank you, ma'am."

"Why are you being polite to me, Nana is going back to her mother's house, do you want to go with her?"

She was also one of the participants in the mess at the brother's house, and she knew it very well. If her parents hadn't stopped her back then, she would have run over to make a mess of the third child's marriage.

His wife was right next to him. Xu Dong didn't say much, but simply replied:
"Don't go."

"It doesn't matter if you don't go, it's better to have less contact with people like them."

Over the years, not only Xu Dong has been worried about the bride price, but also Xu Ting. He has never met such a shameless family.

After hanging up the phone, Xu Dong gestured OK to his wife, and immediately booked a ticket for her, including the return flight.

Although the ticket price for domestic flights is not close to the people, it is not as exaggerated as that of international flights. A total of 3000 more than [-] yuan is paid for two round-trip tickets.

It is more than five times more expensive than a high-speed rail ticket.

As for the reason?
Xu Dong guessed that the localization of high-speed rail is too high, almost [-]%, even if the global supply chain is broken, production can still continue;

However, civil aviation airliners are not so auspicious. Although domestic production capacity is also available, many parts have to be imported, and it is almost one less than one used.

Even the beautiful country and the European Union have not delivered a new passenger plane in the past two years due to supply chain problems, and all civil aviation companies are eating their old money.

……

On April 4th, a new week begins.

Since entering April, the share of rations has generally decreased a lot. If there is no additional source of food, basically most families will really have to tighten their belts to live.

At [-] o'clock in the morning, the company's logistics department suddenly issued a notice, roughly meaning that starting from next week, the canteen will only provide heating services and will no longer provide ready-made meals.

With the increasingly tight food supply, the cafeteria also encountered difficulties and could no longer maintain it, so it had to be reformed.

In other words, the small benefits of state-owned enterprises are coming to an end.

As soon as the notice came out, there was an uproar in the whole company. Everyone in the security department sneaked back to the office, wanting to inquire about further news.

Sister Feng had a bitter face: "What is this called? It's just a dinner. They all want to pluck the company's wool. Now it's all right, just pluck the sheep to death."

"What's there to complain about? Don't you eat twice a day yourself?" Lao Fang said impatiently.

"We are required by work. Overtime and night shifts are commonplace. Those who sit in the office get off work at [-]:[-], why is it the same?"

Uncle Chen waved his hand: "It's too late to say anything now. I just changed my meal tickets a few days ago. Did the cafeteria say how to deal with these meal tickets?"

"You can go directly to the logistics office to return the meal ticket. If you find it troublesome, you can also exchange it for money." Xiang Xin replied.

"I'm stupid, what's the use of exchanging money?"

"A catty of food stamps is 300 yuan, which is higher than the black market price, not a lot!" Xiang Xin said with emotion.

"No matter how high it is, I won't change it. Now I can't buy food with money. It's not like I haven't been to Panjiayuan. I can't buy food for a long time." Uncle Chen shook his head.

Before looking for a job for Chen Yang, their family had already spent [-] catties of rice. Looking at it now, the business lost a lot.

If I knew this, I might as well let my grandson stay in the power company. Temporary workers are temporary workers. After all, no matter how much wages you earn, you can’t buy food.

Their family is a typical throw away.

Xu Dong just came back from Chief Cao's side, and when he saw that the office was full of people, he couldn't help "screaming" and said:

"Why are you running back, don't you want to work?"

"Section Chief, we just came back to take a look, so we can't delay the matter." Uncle Chen flattered him.

"Boss, what did the director say? Can the canteen be restored?" Xiang Xin asked quickly.

Xu Dong shook his head: "I can't recover. From next week, everyone has to bring their own lunch boxes. Those who find it troublesome can also choose bread."

"Ah...how could this be?" Sister Feng sighed.

"Didn't Uncle Li store up a few hundred catties of rice for everyone? You don't lack food, so why sigh?"

More than 700 catties of rice, even if more than a year has passed, at least half of it will be left. If it is replaced with coarse grains, it will definitely last for another three or four years.

After three or four years, after another one or two years, the most difficult stage will be over, not to mention that this is the capital, and no matter what, there is no possibility of a major famine.

"Section Chief, there are only less than two hundred catties left in our family."

Lao Fang complained to the sky, in order to marry a wife, he directly spent one-third of the rice here, coupled with his usual lack of restraint, if it wasn't for the small population in the family, he probably would have eaten all of it.

"Section Chief, our family is similar." Uncle Chen said bitterly.

On the contrary, Xiang Xin looked indifferent, benefiting from Xu Dong's reminder, not only did she hoard 750 catties of rice, her natal family and husband's family also hoarded thousands of catties each.

So in the short term, their family is not short of food.

But the others nodded silently.

Although the food in the cafeteria is not good, it at least solves the ration problem of an adult. After a year, it is equivalent to saving one or two hundred catties of grain, which is not a small amount.

Xu Dong took off his police cap and scratched his scalp. Under the current situation, he also couldn't get food. Although he had stocked up a lot at home, he was not noble enough to sacrifice himself for others.

"I have reminded you a long time ago that the drought will not be over for a while. You must learn to save and plan carefully, but you are all good..."

"Section Chief, we don't want to either, but this is the way of the world, sometimes it is really unavoidable. In addition, you tempt us with good things from time to time. Counting butter and emperor goose meat, no amount of food can save us. Stay!"

Uncle Chen took the opportunity to pour out his bitterness.

"So, is it wrong for me to introduce good things to you?" Xu Dong said angrily.

Sister Feng quickly helped to explain: "Section Chief, Lao Chen means that we can't keep the rice, and we can't blame us entirely. After all, every family has hard-to-recite scriptures."

"Okay, I have nothing else to say."

Xu Dong waved his hand:
"Finally, I would like to say something heartfelt to you, the drought is far from over, and there is still a long time ahead!
Nothing can be relied on now, only food is the biggest backing, everyone must pay close attention to the remaining food, and don't waste it easily. "

"Section Chief, do you have any other channels here..."

Sister Feng tried a word, the person in front of me is a veritable rich second generation, and there is a bakery at home, maybe there is a special channel.

Xu Dong quickly interrupted: "Don't think about it, Mr. Liao can't find a way, and you think highly of me too much. Our family does have a bakery, but the raw materials are under the management of the city, and I can't intervene if I want to. "
