59 years after its opening, people are still in Nanluoguxiang.

"Lily, you sit in the back this time. Remember to hold on to the seat and don't let go, or you will fall off."

The little girl was sitting on the fixed wooden board of the horizontal bar, which could easily affect his riding, so he put her behind him this time. With his body's nerve reflex speed, he could catch her quickly if she fell.

"Yeah." The little girl nodded with a smile.

When he rode out on his bike, he happened to meet Jiang Jianguo, Jiang Hongjun's father, who had the same name as his second uncle. The latter was rushing home and when he saw Chen Feng riding his bike, he did not forget to say hello to him.

"Xiao Feng, go tell your dad that there is meat at the market!"

The little girl wanted to jump down in surprise.

Chen Feng grabbed it and asked with a smile: "Uncle Jiang, you don't have any meat tickets?"

He ran back home empty-handed in such a hurry, it must be because he didn't have any meat coupons, otherwise it's hard to say why he went back.

"Big pot, buy some meat!" Chen Li hugged his arm, her thoughts clearly written on her face.

"Silly girl, we have a lot of meat at home now." Chen Feng smiled and put her back in the back seat.

But the little girl held his hand tightly, and when she saw someone coming, she lowered her voice deliberately, for fear that others would hear her.

"But the big pot, our meat will be eaten up."

The cautious look of this little foodie made Chen Feng laugh. He is so shrewd!

"After we finish eating, I will go hunting in the mountains. Don't worry, we have no shortage of meat. Grandma once said, you forgot, you are not allowed to buy meat outside."

"Oh!"

The little girl soon figured it out.

"Big pot, when we run out of meat, I'll go out and hunt birds for you to eat."

"Well, that's a good idea."

I rode my bike out and met a lot of people running to the vegetable market along the way.

Since the disaster last year, the frequency and total amount of meat supplied by state-owned vegetable markets have been greatly reduced. Only during festivals will the government allocate a portion of meat to citizens.

Tomorrow is Army Day, so it’s normal to have some meat in the market.

However, those that are really related were most likely "snatched" at the meat stall yesterday, and the only things left today must be lean meat, bone meat, etc.

When we arrived at Guanshan's house, the old man was heating up the food himself at the door.

It must be yesterday's leftovers.

"Grandpa!" Chen Li shouted the first time she saw him.

All children are like this. When they see an elder who likes them, they rush to shout, fearing that they are a step slow. They even do this when opening the door.

"Lily!" Guan Shan raised his head when he heard the voice and asked with a smile, "Why are you here?"

In the past, Chen Feng always came in the morning or afternoon, so it was rare for him to come so early.

"I went hunting in the mountains yesterday and caught some prey. I braised it last night and brought it to you this morning. It's just right to cook it together while it's still hot."

Chen Feng picked up the backpack. The little girl had already jumped down by herself and was lying in front of the coal stove looking at the leftovers from the mountain.

Ever since he helped Sha Zhu persuade the Ran family to let Sha Zhu get married and reconciled with Sha Zhu, Guan Shan has been living a good life.

Ran Qiuye often asked He Yushui to bring food over, and Sha Zhu would never forget to give him a portion whenever he had something good. With Chen Feng's help from time to time, their life was better than those working families.

"I heard there's meat in the market today, and I think there'll be meat tomorrow, too. I have some meat coupons here, but they're useless to me, so take them yourself."

About Shan took out a purse from his pocket, which is a cloth bag. This is the most common wallet.

There are cowhide wallets, but most people can’t afford them.

"Teacher, please give it to Xiao Ming. I don't want to queue up to buy meat early in the morning. I might as well go up the mountain instead of waiting for it."

Chen Feng shook his head.

"Idiot, you can buy roast duck for your brother and sister." He cursed at Shan Qi. Is it easy for him to get some meat tickets?

"Grandpa, I bought three big roast ducks and I haven't spent any money yet." The little girl rushed to show off, proudly showing off her brilliant achievement.

Chen Feng couldn't bear to look at it.

If Old Li knew this, he would probably faint from crying in the toilet.

"Is there a fool who would send you roast duck?" Guan Shan asked with a smile.

"Yeah, big brother is so nice. He bought me a lot of toys." Chen Li said happily.

Chen Feng explained with a smile. When he heard that the little girl bought him a bunch of jade and made General Li flee without a fight, even Guan Shan couldn't help laughing.

Pointing at the little girl, he said, "You little bandit, you're just like your grandfather."

"My grandpa is not a bandit, he is a doctor." The little girl immediately defended him. "Bandits are bad guys, but my grandpa is not a bad guy."

"Hahaha, of course I'm not a bad person to my family." Guan Shan's smile sounded a little bitter. He missed his granddaughter a little.

"Teacher, please give the meat ticket to Xiao Ming. My family doesn't lack meat now." Chen Feng still did not accept the meat ticket, not because he wanted to help Han Chunming, the silly boy.

Instead, he promised the old lady that he would not buy staple food outside.

"Really not?"

"Really not!"

The little girl whispered, "Grandpa, if it's money, I can take it."

"That's fine. I'll take it out and exchange it for money in the morning. You can use it as pocket money next time you come." Guan Yushan said with a smile.

The little girl smiled happily.

I can buy lots of popsicles again!

"Grandpa, I'll come get it tomorrow."

"Row!"

The two agreed on a time, and Chen Feng took his sister home.

When he came back from Zhengyang Gate and entered Nanluoguxiang, he heard a lot of angry curses and the crying of children.

"Big pot, someone is crying. Do they want to eat meat, so they are spanked by their parents?"

Chen Li hugged his waist, put her little face against his back and asked happily.

"No, it should be that someone else's family bought meat, and then the other family's children told them, and they cried and wanted to eat meat, and then their mother beat their father, or their father scolded their mother."

"I know, I know. Last time, Yan Jiefang cried and asked for meat. He was so pitiful." Chen Li nodded gently, her forehead hitting his back.

"Will you treat him to some meat?"

"Of course not, he is not my brother." Chen Li said happily.

As he entered his own large yard, he could already smell the faint aroma of meat noodles mixed with green onions.

"Brother, have you gone to buy meat?" Fatty Wang was spreading bran to Chen Li's chickens. Normal family members would not be willing to feed them with rice, but only the little girl would do this in order to eat chicken as soon as possible, even at the huge risk of being spanked by her own mother.

"No, I'm going to sell the wild boar and venison to the steel mill and cannery in the morning to see if I can get some good food from their ice storage."

The Red Star Steel Rolling Mill and the Cannery are both large factories with more than 10,000 employees. The steel rolling mill in particular, both have several canteens.

The daily food consumption is huge, and it is definitely not possible to deliver it once a day!

The transportation capacity of Sijiu City is not so idle, it is very tight!

Generally, large quantities are transported together every few days, so large quantities of fish and meat dragged back from Tianjin Port and mutton purchased from Inner Mongolia often need to be kept chilled, which necessitates an ice storage or granary specifically for storing and preserving food.

In essence, Zhou Qing and his colleagues who are responsible for the unplanned purchase of food materials are serving the factory's senior management and technical personnel!
