We are all reborn, who wants to be the richest man?

Chapter 212 The Rise of the Arctic Ocean (page 12)

In the courtyard in Dongcheng, the capital, a young man ran in hurriedly early in the morning and entered a main room in the middle courtyard.

At this time, the owner of the house had obviously just finished breakfast, and the table had not yet been removed. There were rice porridge, pickles and white flour buns on it. From this, it could be seen that the living standard of this family was good.

"Dad, the supply and marketing cooperative is still out of stock. Not only me, but many people are asking about it. There is a lot of noise outside the supply and marketing cooperative."

The one who spoke was the young man who just ran in. As soon as he finished speaking, he sat down on the table, picked up a bowl of porridge and started drinking it. Apparently he got up early and ran out without breakfast.

"Where's the wine? Didn't I ask you to buy some wine?"

The head of the family, who was sitting on the main seat, frowned and asked when he saw his eldest son coming back empty-handed.

“Dad, you don’t know that because of the shortage of soda, the sales of liquor have surged.

There was a queue, and I guess I had to wait until noon when it was my turn.

I haven’t had breakfast yet, I’m going to take a look after dinner.”

While pulling the boy into his mouth, he described the situation outside to his father.

The young man's words made his father angry. "I just know how to eat. How can I die if I skip one meal? When you finish eating, you will not know where the queue will be."

"Dad, tomorrow is the New Year's Day. The whole family will come over then. I have prepared all the dishes. I can't be without drinks by then, right?" The woman on the side also became anxious.

"What do you think is wrong this year? Arctic soda has not been seen on the market for more than two months.

It doesn't matter in normal times, but not during the Chinese New Year, and now it's so hard to even buy drinks.

Our dad only has this little hobby, and even if there is no soda, he still says that if he doesn’t even have wine, he probably won’t be able to eat well tomorrow.”

This is the law of the market. It is the peak sales season. If the supply of a product is small, the corresponding sales volume of the same product or similar products will increase sharply.

Now is the best example. The favorite soda among the people in the capital is no longer available. Will those who know how to drink but don't drink soda choose to drink when they can't buy soda? This is for sure.

Other brands of soda? Don’t be ridiculous, Arctic Ocean has not opened up the national market, let alone other brands. Now they are all fighting on their own.

If a city's local soda sales cannot keep up, there is no way around it but to wait.

In the small New Year, whether you are home or visiting relatives, drinking wine is indispensable if you have some conditions. This is the peak sales season.

Seeing his wife nagging her endlessly, his father also got upset and shouted loudly, "Okay, what's the use of talking about this now? No matter how much you say, you can't talk about the drinks?"

"Dad, you and Uncle Li have such a good relationship, wouldn't it be nice to ask him for help?

He is a worker at the Arctic Ocean Factory. This shouldn't be difficult for him, right?

Goods are in short supply in the Arctic Ocean now, and you can exchange them for a few more bottles, which can be said to be killing two birds with one stone."

"Yes." After hearing what her son said, the woman slapped her thigh. "The boss is right, go find Lao Li."

I really forgot all about this when I was riding a donkey looking for a donkey. Dad, you can go talk to Lao Li later."

When he heard that he was looking for Lao Li, the man resisted and hesitated.

Naturally, the daughter-in-law noticed it and frowned and asked, "Dad, didn't you quarrel with Lao Li? That shouldn't be the case. Who doesn't know around here that you two are close brothers, closer than real brothers?"

"That's not true."

When she heard that there was no quarrel, the woman was relieved and asked, "What's going on?"

"Hey, Lao Li has been too busy in the past month or so. He has worked intense overtime every day and has lost a lot of weight. I heard him say that he doesn't even have enough time to sleep every day.

If I go to trouble others at this time, I always feel bad."

The woman understood and nodded, "That's right, he will definitely not reject you. It won't be bad if something happens then."

The woman is not afraid of anything else, but she is afraid that Lao Li will be caught stealing something at the request of her man, which will affect his work.

If it's normal, even if I take it and get caught, the most I'll get is a criticism.

Things are different now. Everyone knows that Arctic Ocean has introduced foreign investment. When wages were raised at that time, many people were envious.

If the other party loses their job because of this, their family will probably feel guilty for the rest of their lives.

The current pay at the Arctic Ocean Factory is truly unparalleled in the capital. Not only do overtime workers have to take care of meals at noon and evening, but they also have meat for every meal. Every day is almost in time for the Chinese New Year.

It was said that a few thousand people had gone out for recruitment a month ago, but unfortunately there were only 500 people available.

It is said that it will be expanded after the year, and many young people who are unemployed are just trying to do it.

Seeing that it didn't work with Lao Li, the whole family fell silent.

Finally, the man sighed, "Let's do this. I'll take some money to go to the Pigeon Market later. I have to buy some liquor when I come back. I can't make our father unhappy with this visit, right?"

"It can only be the". The woman nodded and said, getting up to get the money.

"Laowang, Laowang". As soon as the woman here walked to the door of the inner room, a series of shouts came from outside, and she also recognized who it was.

"His dad, is Lao Li here? I hear the voice is him."

Lao Wang nodded and said, "Yes, that's him. I didn't expect that he would have time to come over today. It's still early in the morning."

Lao Wang said and walked out. When he came out of the door, he saw a middle-aged man pushing a bicycle under the steps. There was a push of things hanging on the handlebars. There was also a box on the back seat. It wasn't his ferromagnetic Lao Li. who.

"Lao Wang, come here and help me quickly. I can't lift the car ladder while holding on to the box behind me."

"Oh," Lao Wang hurriedly walked over, not forgetting to call his eldest son, "Boss, stop eating, come out and help."

"Oh, here we come" came the response from inside the room, and then the boss ran out and took the box off the back seat.

Lao Wang also picked up the things on the handlebars and said, "Let's go, we will take you to the backyard."

"Why are you sending it to the backyard? I got this for you." As he said this, Lao Li started up the car.

"Ah" Lao Wang looked at the things in his hands and thought he heard wrong. Although these days are not like those in previous years, no one is rich, and even if they give gifts, they don't give so many.

"What are you doing standing there in a daze? Take it in." After speaking, Lao Li patted the shoulder of the stunned boss and motioned for him to move in.

How dare you, boss? He looks at his father and doesn't know what to do.

"Lao Li, is there something wrong with you? If you have a disease that can be treated, just tell me if you don't have money."

Lao Wang had already begun to think wildly, staring at his old brother, as if trying to tell something from his face.

"What are you talking about? Curse me?" Lao Li said angrily, and then laughed, "You are overthinking, go in first, and I will tell you later."

Lao Wang saw that Lao Li didn't seem to be lying, so he decided to take the things in first.

In the living room, after Lao Li's explanation, Lao Wang's family understood what was going on.

It turns out that new equipment has arrived in the factory and is being debugged in the past two days, which has affected the work of some people.
