Get something in the courtyard

Chapter 634 Winter Storage
It's almost November and the weather is getting colder.Everyone begins to prepare for winter.

In this era when goods are not abundant, stocking up on winter supplies is a very important thing.The most important thing is to buy coal and cabbage. With these two things, you can have a comfortable winter.

During the dinner, Tian Youfu and others talked about stockpiling supplies.

Tian Youfu asked: "Wang Kun, our family buys coal ash and rolls briquettes ourselves at this time every year. What are your plans?"

If your family has money, you can go directly to the coal station to buy briquettes.But most people don't choose that. The price of briquettes is much more expensive than coal ash.

Wang Kun said: "I don't need it. I'll just buy briquettes!"

The price of briquettes is more expensive than briquettes.A briquette costs three and a half cents.

Wang Kun has a heater at home, and it would be better to use briquettes for heating.Anyway, he was just pretending to buy briquettes, and if it didn't work, he would go to the Foot Pot Chicken to ask for the bill.

Back then, they stole a lot of coal from the land of China.

Thinking of this, Wang Kun felt that it was time to ask for the debt without delay.When he had a rest at night, he would go there.

Tian Youfu and others looked at each other and said nothing.The living conditions here at Wang Kun's side are obviously much better than them.

"I think you don't have time, so let's buy it for you together!"

"Brother Tian, ​​no need. Give me the money to buy coal, and I'll get you some coal. Isn't there an abandoned warehouse over there at our factory?
I'll have it transported there, and you can transport it back at night. "

Everyone in Tian Youfu knew about the warehouse that Wang Kun was talking about.That place used to be the warehouse of a capitalist. Later, the capitalist ran away and the warehouse became idle.

Later, the people who stayed on the other side of the sea took a fancy to that place and turned it into a secret base.

After it was discovered, a great war broke out and the warehouse was destroyed.

As for asking for money from Tian Youfu and others, it was not because Wang Kun was stingy, but for safety reasons.

He still knows the principle of rising rice and grudges.

Several people knew that Wang Kun was capable, and without any hesitation after hearing this, they asked the mother-in-law at home to come out with money and tickets.

Wang Kun collected the money and said: "You guys find a floor truck, and I will take you to transport the coal at this time tomorrow. By the way, find some bags for coal."

"Don't worry about this. The bags that used to contain coal at home are all kept in the cellar.

By the way, there are some in your cellar too. "

Wang Kun knew that there was a cellar in his home, but he had never gone in and had no idea what was in it.

Niu Qian said: "Wang Kun's cellar has not been cleaned for a long time. I will help clean it tomorrow. Not only do I have to put coal in, but I also have to buy cabbage."

Zuo Zhenmei said: "We will help clean up tomorrow. By the way, Xiao'e, do you want us to help you with your cellar?"

Lou Xiao'e shook her head: "No need. Our coal tickets are all at Xu Damao's place. Just wait until he comes back from the movie and let him buy them."

Although Lou Xiao'e looked calm on her face, in her heart she wished Xu Damao would freeze to death.Anyway, she will divorce Xu Damao soon, so why bother about Xu Damao.

Seeing Lou Xiao'e's refusal, Zuo Zhenmei did not persist.They got closer to Xu Damao because of Wang Kun's face.

Without Wang Kun, they would ignore Xu Damao.

"Okay! Xu Damao knows many people and has the ability to get coal."

After talking about coal, everyone started talking about cabbage.Cabbage is distributed by the sub-district office and is arranged uniformly.

In previous years, three uncles would take the lead in buying cabbage, and the purchases would be unified in the courtyard.

"What are we going to do this year? Do we still have to follow the people in the courtyard?"

"No! If we buy cabbage any year, we won't suffer some losses. The Jia family pays less and buys more. Those extra things don't all come from us." Su Tianling asked: "Wang Kun , We don’t have a steward in our courtyard, what should we do about buying cabbage?”

Wang Kun said: "Sister-in-law Zhu, there is no uncle in charge of other people's courtyards, so we can live the same life. Don't mention these three uncles. They can do nothing but hold us back."

Su Tianling was a little embarrassed that she had not completely changed the habit she had formed over a long period of time.

Zhu Minghui glared at his wife. Just now he said that he didn't want to be taken advantage of by the three uncles, but now he asked what to do if the uncle was not in charge.

"We are better off without them."

Su Tianling said slightly dissatisfied: "I didn't mean it that way, I just meant it to suit my words."

Wang Kun smiled and said: "Sister-in-law Zhu, let's live our own lives well. There is no need to be with them."

Su Tianling smiled: "I've always done this before, but suddenly I'm not used to it. Then our family will buy cabbage together. But what should we do if we don't know when the cabbage will arrive?"

"Sister-in-law, if you don't know, you can go to the street office and ask. The street office is just like us, they are residents of the street. You don't need to be so different from them.

I have a good relationship with the street office and can get a lot of useful information from them. "

In the courtyard house, communication with the street office was strictly controlled by the three uncles.This way.The matters on the streets were left to the three uncles.

They took advantage of this information asymmetry to turn the courtyard into what they wanted.

Lou Xiao'e, who has the most contact with the sub-district office, explained helpfully: "Yes. The people in the sub-district office are very good. If anyone has difficulties, they are willing to help.

They are not unreasonable.Dear sisters-in-law, don’t be afraid to deal with the street office. "

After listening to Wang Kun and Lou Xiao'e's words, Su Tianling and the others felt relieved.

"You are right. We were deceived before. Wasn't it because the three uncles refused to report it to the street office and everything had to be resolved in the courtyard?
I will go to the subdistrict office tomorrow to ask how to arrange it.By the way, I also want to help Ming Qiang find a wife. "

Zhu Mingqiang's face suddenly turned red: "Sister-in-law, my matter is not urgent. Let's wait until I make money!"

The topic suddenly changed, and several women began to discuss finding a wife for Zhu Mingqiang.

Wang Kun and the other men continued to drink.

At about nine o'clock, everyone left.I have to go to work tomorrow, so I won’t drink for too long.

After returning home, Lou Xiao'e put Xueer to sleep, who was too sleepy to open her eyes.

Wang Kun asked: "You really don't need my help to get coal back."

Lou Xiao'e shook her head: "No need. Let Xu Damao worry about it. You can get coal for Brother Tian and others, forget it. They won't talk nonsense.

But to get coal for Xu Damao, it has to be transported to the backyard through the middle courtyard.If Yi Zhonghai sees it, he will definitely not stop. "

When Wang Kun thought about it, Lou Xiaoe was indeed right.He planned to go to Foot Pot Chicken to get coal. Of course, he wanted to get good coal.

If these coals are used on Yi Zhonghai, he will not be grateful and will only get more trouble.

Because he needed to go to the Foot Pot Chicken to get coal, Wang Kun quickly fed Lou Xiao'e and made her fall asleep from exhaustion before starting to take action.

This time, Wang Kun did not get the coal from the sky to the army.Instead, it took some effort to transport it to the coal mine.

Although this is more troublesome than shipping directly to various cities, it is much safer.He didn't want to cause himself too much trouble.

Wang Kun only knew that Tiaobaji got a lot of coal from China, but he didn't know where the coal was stored.In the end, I had to randomly find a place to put coal and remove the coal there.
