Mixed in the last days as a salted fish

Chapter 87

Kevin was a little undecided, so he took the opportunity of Village Chief Fan to show Uncle Paul and others around the house, and secretly called his uncle.

When Zhang Hao heard about this, he rushed over immediately.

"Uncle Paul, Aunt Anna, my uncle is here." Kevin then pointed to Kelly and introduced: "Uncle, this is my girlfriend Kelly."

As for Oscar, he was full from lunch and had difficulty walking, so he didn't want to go out at all.

"Jack, long time no see!"

Paul and his wife greeted each other.

Jack is Zhang Hao's English name.

At the second sister's house before, the two sides had met a few times, so they were no strangers.

"Hello, Uncle!"

Kelly took the initiative to greet.

Zhang Hao nodded, very satisfied with this title.

Village head Fan was a little curious: "I said Boss Zhang, why are you here?"

"Uncle Fan, you can still call me Lao Zhang, don't let Kevin take advantage of me."

"Okay, Lao Zhang, this Mr. Paul wants to rent our house, do you have any objection?"

"I have no objection, of course I have no objection. Your house, Uncle Fan, is definitely the safest place in our Shawei Village. It is the best place for Paul and the others to live here."

"Just as long as you agree..."

"I haven't finished my sentence yet!" Zhang Hao immediately changed the topic: "I know Uncle Fan, you don't need this little money, but the rules are the rules, and the rent is still charged."

"That line, water and electricity included, 500 yuan per month, I'll charge a cost price."

Village head Fan collected a symbolic amount of rent.

"Paul, what do you think?"

Zhang Hao turned his head to look at the couple.

Naturally, Paul would not refuse. In fact, more money and less money are trivial matters. The key is that he is not familiar with the place, and he is most concerned about safety issues.

Village head Fan made a phone call and called his younger son over. On the one hand, he signed a rental agreement, and on the other hand, he wanted to introduce his son to the other party.

Lao Zhang is definitely more powerful than imagined.

He has already asked someone to inquire. Boss Zhang is not only worth tens of billions, but also has a very close relationship with Mayor He. A good relationship with the other party will definitely benefit a lot.

……

After signing the lease contract, Paul took the opportunity to inquire with the other party, wanting to ask where he could buy food.

Village head Fan was very enthusiastic, and led the crowd directly to a farmyard in the village. The gate of the yard was open, and there seemed to be many people inside.

Village head Fan immediately introduced: "This is a small market run by our village. Many shops outside are closed, and the express delivery has also stopped. I want to buy some oil, salt, sauce and vinegar, but I can't find a place."

"Where did the things here come from?"

Zhang Hao asked curiously.

"Some bought goods from outside to sell, and there were also surplus things at home. I wanted to take the opportunity to dispose of them. Wasn't there a rush to buy things before? The big guys bought a lot of things they didn't need."

"Are there a lot of food sellers?"

"Not a lot, but as long as you are willing to spend money, you can buy more food."

"What's the price of rice now?"

Zhang Hao asked immediately.

"Ordinary rice, it seems to be almost [-], and the price of food has generally risen a lot in the past two days."

Village head Fan smiled happily.

Their family has stockpiled tens of thousands of catties of rice, and in less than a month, they have made seven or eight times the price difference. They are simply making money lying down.

If it wasn't for the large number of people in the family and the lack of money, he would have taken the opportunity to sell some of them.

Zhang Hao nodded. This price is actually not bad. By next year, the black market price is estimated to be several times higher, and the quantity is limited.

When Paul and his wife saw someone selling grain, they immediately ran to the stall and asked impatiently:

"Boss, do you have any flour here?"

Looking at the foreigner in front of him, the stall owner immediately beamed with joy: "Of course, how much do you two want?"

"We want to buy 1000 kilograms."

"Two thousand catties?"

"Yes, how much."

Paul asked quickly.

"The quantity you want is too much. I don't want to buy the flour I have. I need to transfer it from other places. What about the price..."

"Ah Sheng, this is one of our own, so don't pay too much." Uncle Fan quickly reminded.

"Uncle Fan, you should have said it earlier!" The stall owner scratched his head, "Then it's one hundred and two, and I'll earn a toll for your order."

"Isn't it still eighty yesterday?"

Village head Fan was a little displeased.

"Uncle, it's really not that I made random quotations. Yesterday was yesterday, and today is today. The situation is different."

The stall owner couldn't help yelling Qudao.

Zhang Hao couldn't help being a little curious: "Boss, tell me, what's different today?"

"Didn't you hear?"

The stall owner asked in a low voice.

"Fast, stop talking."

Village Chief Fan waved his hand impatiently.

The stall owner smiled awkwardly, and quickly explained: "It's been rumored in the market this morning that the higher authorities plan to reopen supply and marketing cooperatives in various regions, and they will have to buy food with food stamps in the future. Do you think it's possible not to raise the price?"

"Supply and Marketing Cooperative? Food stamps?"

Village head Fan fell into memory for a moment.

Due to the federal civil war, productivity dropped sharply. In order to ensure the supply of various materials, the government implemented a rationing system for nearly 20 years.

It wasn't until he was in junior high school that this thing completely faded out of people's sight. It was actually only half a century from now.

Zhang Hao was a little surprised. If he remembered correctly, the supply and marketing cooperative should only have appeared in March next year, and then quickly spread to the entire federation.

Why is it so early?
Although Paul and others have not experienced that era, they have at least taken history lessons and know the meaning behind the supply and marketing cooperatives and food stamps.

The couple suddenly became a little anxious.

"Boss, the price is fine, can you help us buy more food?"

The stall owner hesitated: "No matter how much it is, I can't guarantee it, and the price is definitely not this price. You'd better be mentally prepared."

"The price is negotiable, please."

Paul said without hesitation.

"Ah Sheng, this is Boss Zhang. Don't worry about the money. If they don't want it, I'll take it over at the original price. I promise not to let you suffer."

Village head Fan promised on the spot.

The stall owner immediately breathed a sigh of relief: "Okay, then I can rest assured. It's not that I can't trust you all. It's just that the price of food has fluctuated too much recently. If I'm not careful, it will fall into my hand. I have to be careful."

Paul was very straightforward and paid 10 yuan as a deposit on the spot. This money was transferred to them by Alice before leaving, and a total of 200 million yuan was transferred.

It is the salary of my daughter Kelly for two years.

Next, the group bought some daily necessities, and finally returned with a full load.

On the way back, Zhang Hao called his nephew aside: "We have a lot of doomsday canned food in our yard. You can bring twenty boxes to your father-in-law later, and treat it as a housewarming gift from me to them."

"Thank you, uncle." Kevin was overjoyed.

"Kelly is a good child, work hard and strive to marry her into the family as soon as possible."

Zhang Hao patted the opponent's shoulder.

"Uncle, Kaili is four or five years younger than you, isn't it inappropriate for you to call her a child?"

Kevin couldn't help teasing.

"Hurry up!" Zhang Hao waved his hand.
