Era: Start as a buyer

Chapter 144 Chili fried lard residue
  When a person wants too many things, he is destined to be busy for these things, and his life may not be so stable and leisurely.

After filling out the attendance application form in the morning, he asked Zhou Lin to help collect this month's salary and benefits, and sent them to his home. You need to go to the Finance Department to apply for approval of the salary of the leader. It can be done for a month or even a few months. If there are couples working in the same factory, they are usually led by one person.

Before Luo Cheng went to work last time, other teams in the Purchasing Department took advantage of their free time to help bring some things when he went to the toilet. Luo Cheng was not good at criticizing others for the first time. Maybe he would be useful to others in the future. when. At most, if the other party doesn't give back anything, then they won't interact in certain aspects in the future.

At noon, Luo Cheng simply asked Zhang Le to come to his house for a meal, and he would help take him to the Water Conservancy Bureau in the afternoon. The other two colleagues who wanted eggs also followed Luo Cheng to his house after get off work.

In fact, there were not many eggs at home, so we only brought twenty kilograms in total. Section Chief Li and Director Sun took away ten kilograms, and Zhou Lin and Zhang Le also took away a few kilograms. But there are still quail eggs at home. In this era, there were no domestic quails, so they can be collectively called bird eggs.

After all the eggs are used up, it feels like eating quail eggs. The main reason is that there are too many eggs, which is a bit exaggerated.

Luo Cheng took the three of them home. Zhao Qian had already cooked the rice and was just waiting for Luo Cheng to come before cooking. Zhao Qian did not expect Luo Cheng to invite a colleague to dinner temporarily. In an era when food was not enough, people usually did not invite him to dinner. If you invite someone to a meal, the person being invited will actually be given a day's quota of meal tickets.

First, Zhao Qian asked two colleagues to weigh a pound of eggs for each of them, and then used bird eggs to make up the number. I sold the eggs to my colleagues for one dollar each, and my colleagues were also very interested in the eggs. Bird eggs are also eggs, just eggs. However, these bird eggs are small in size. If there are children at home who want to satisfy their cravings, it would actually be a better feeling for a child to cook a bird egg.

Luo Cheng asked Zhao Qian to roast a few sweet potatoes on the stove while cooking, and then everyone could share the rice. Asking her to cook quickly, Luo Cheng remembered that the last time he went to see Dai Tiande, his sister-in-law over there gave him some tobacco and alcohol tickets, so he asked Zhang Le to sit while he went to buy a bottle of wine to feel comfortable in the hot weather.

He said hello to Zhao Qian and said that he was going to buy a bottle of wine and would be back soon. Zhao Qian also responded and started cooking.

Zhang Le is a man who knows the rules. His wife is the only one in Luo Cheng's house. Even if she is waiting for Luo Cheng to buy wine, don't sit alone in the room. Even though Luo Cheng's wife was in the kitchen, he was in the main living room. So as soon as Luo Cheng left, Zhang Le moved a stool and sat at the door.

The lard residue is passed through the oil again, and the aroma of the lard residue immediately comes out of the kitchen. Many people in the yard went out to see who was cooking meat, and they soon discovered that the smell was coming from Luo Cheng's kitchen. I eat fried eggs and noodles in the morning and lard residue at noon. How can I live like this?

But there was a stranger sitting at the door of Luo Cheng's house. Someone came up and asked him if he was not from the yard and what he was doing here. Zhang Le answered honestly that he was Luo Cheng's colleague and was invited to have a meal by Luo Cheng.

With Zhang Le here, people in the yard thought it was normal for Luo Cheng's family to have guests and get something nice. The smell of lard residue is so fragrant that adults and children will salivate when they smell it at home.

After the lard residue is passed through the oil, Zhao Qian takes the chopped chili peppers and stir-fries them when the peppers are almost cooked. The smell of chili pepper and lard residue is mixed, and the smell is delicious.

When Luo Cheng came back, he was holding a bottle of Fenjiu in his hand, which cost several yuan a bottle. It was a well-known high-end wine in this era. Luo Cheng has never drunk high-end wine. He used to drink in the town, and it was considered good to drink loose wine.

Zhang Le first heard Luo Cheng say that he was going to buy some wine, and thought that Luo Cheng was going to buy bulk wine. Bulk wine is cheap, only a few cents per tael, and only a few cents per pound, and it doesn't require a ticket. This Fenjiu is a good wine. It only costs a few yuan a bottle and requires a ticket to buy it.

I thought that when I came to Luo Cheng's place, I would just eat casually, but this was both wine and meat, which made Zhang Le feel a little embarrassed. So before the meal, Zhang Le first took out a few twenty-tael food stamps and gave them to Luo Cheng. Everyone ate a ration, so food was always available. If you eat a few taels of food from others, they will eat a few taels less.

So these days, those who treat guests to dinner do not need to pay for the invitation. Food stamps must be given according to the rules. Zhang Le wanted to give food stamps, but Luo Cheng was not polite and asked Zhao Qian to put them away. There are two dishes for lunch today. In addition to fried lard residue with chili, there is also a Chinese cabbage.

There was no wine glass, so I just took a bowl and poured some into each person. Luo Cheng took a whiff and found that it was much mellower than the loose wine he had brought in the future. He took a sip first and it tasted good.

Luo Cheng and Zhang Le had nothing serious to talk about. They only talked about water pipes, so Zhao Qian also came to the table to eat together. This requires reconnecting the water pipes, and the water meter is required by the individual, and the cost is actually not small.

Water pipes cost at least two yuan, as well as faucets. Luo Cheng now not only has to connect a faucet in the kitchen, but also has to connect a separate faucet outside the kitchen. In the future, for washing clothes and other things, he can't always go to the kitchen to fetch water, so he can directly connect a separate faucet outside the kitchen. convenient.

For these two faucets, if you add a water meter, there will also be an opening fee. Zhang Le and Luo Cheng calculated that it would cost about eight or nine yuan. If the street office comes out to help residents get it, they will save several dollars. Because there is no need to open an account, but Luo Cheng has personal reasons, so the amount of water meter reading will increase after opening an account. It is normal to charge an account opening fee.

Luo Cheng is just a couple now and has no burden. In many families, even if someone is working, apart from food and drink, there are many who cannot save a few dollars a month. So eight or nine yuan is not a small amount of money for many people.

This amount of money is a trivial matter to Luo Cheng, but he can't say that he earned more than [-] just by messing around last time. It's about catching more rabbits. Rabbits are easy to catch now. Even if a commune was established in the township, Luo Cheng was still a member of the town. No one said anything when he went to catch some rabbits in the town.

After the meal, Luo Cheng and Zhang Le chatted while Zhao Qian was busy cleaning up. I just had dinner and went to the Water Conservancy Bureau to do errands. People were also resting.

When the waiting was almost over, the two of them went to the Water Conservancy Bureau together, because last time they had arranged for the master to come to check on the situation. There is no need to look further, and to do things these days, there is no need to pay in advance. But after the installation is completed, if you feel that there is no problem, just give the money to the installation master.

Luo Cheng's affairs have been settled, and Zhang Le really has something to do in the afternoon and has to go somewhere else. The reason why Luo Cheng didn't go to work in the afternoon was because he was working with Zhang Le. After Zhang Le left, Luo Cheng could go back to work in the factory or not.

The Purchasing Department is so free, and there is actually nothing to do when I go to work. Even the buyers at the local purchasing station are similar. At most, they don't have as much leisure as in the factory, and they usually have to sort out the goods.

When Luo Cheng came back this afternoon, he thought about using the ticket given by his sister-in-law to buy wine at noon, and couldn't help but think of that girl Qianqian again. Anyway, I have nothing to do in the afternoon. I don’t know how the two and a half-year-old rabbits I gave to Sissi last time are doing.

I had some quail eggs at home, so I put a jar of quail eggs in a small jar and planned to go see Sissi.

This time Luo Cheng really just came to see Sissi. Unlike last time, he was a little deliberately trying to maintain a good relationship with Dai Tiande. So when he got here, Luo Cheng looked to see if Sissi was outside the house, not to see if there was anyone in Dai Tiande's house.

After arriving here, Luo Cheng saw Sissi, but this time she was not alone, there was a little boy beside her. The little boy was playing with a slingshot randomly hitting things on the tree, while Sissi was playing with the rabbit. The rabbit was in a cage, but there was only one.
