That year the flowers bloomed 1981

Chapter 959 How about we fall down too?
Although Wen Leyu almost stepped on Li Ye's feet until they were swollen, Li Ye still diligently sent her to work.

As long as my wife cooperates as enthusiastically as she did last night, it would be worth it even if I broke her legs!

Wen Leyu kept a sullen face and said nothing. It was clearly Li Ye's fault, so why did it seem like she was the one who made the mistake in the end?

Li Ye's face was tense and funny, but he could only think about how to find something to talk about to ease the awkwardness.

When passing by a grain and oil store, Li Ye suddenly saw a long line of people queuing at the door.

"Hey, Xiaoyu, look, why are there people lining up so early? I've been at work these past few days and haven't been home. Is the grain and oil supply tight again?"

Wen Leyu rolled his eyes at Li Ye and said, "When have you ever cared about the daily necessities of your family? It would be better if the supply was tight! I'll starve you half to death so that you don't have the energy to do bad things."

Li Ye curled his lips and said with great certainty: "You'll let me starve? I don't believe you!"

Wen Leyu laughed angrily: "Yes, yes, you are the pillar of the family, you are grandma's baby, you are the prince of the Li family, and if there is a bite of food in the family, you must eat it first."

"Hahahaha~"

Li Ye smiled smugly, looking like a shameless scoundrel.

However, after Wen Leyu scolded for a long time, her little face could no longer keep tight.

Then she explained: "Since last month, the prices of high-priced grain and high-priced meat have risen sharply. Many people in our unit are lining up to store grain! My father said that the country is already increasing grain imports, but it will take at least until next month to ease the situation."

“Will it ease next month?”

Li Ye nodded lightly, as if agreeing with Wen Leyu's prediction.

But he knows that food supply will not be relieved even in the month after next, let alone next month, because the market breakthrough is about to come.

In 6, the mainland had actually implemented a "dual track system" for several years, with the ratio of planned internal and external food being approximately 4:.

Because the price of grain is not high, the market is well controlled. After all, speculators also pay attention to cost-effectiveness. They can make ten yuan a day by trading grain and two hundred yuan by trading steel.

However, starting from May, this ratio will be fully relaxed, and even ordinary people who cannot get a coupon will be able to feel the "price fluctuation".

Do you really think that stock investors in later generations only want to make money?

No, they are enjoying the thrill of earning the price difference. Even if they are stuck, they are obsessed with turning losses into profits. This feeling makes them unable to stop and keep going in and out of the water.

So those people queuing up to buy food buy rice at 50 cents a pound today, and the price rises to 55 cents tomorrow, then their happiness is not just about a few cents.

“Alas, it is always the retail investors who get hurt in the stock market, and it is also the civilians who get hurt by price increases!”

Throughout 1988, the overall price increase in the mainland was as high as 20.7%, more than double the previous 1987% in 8.8.
The prices of vegetables, meat and eggs all increased by more than 30%, while the increase in items such as televisions and refrigerators was even more exaggerated, reaching 50%.

No matter how much the prices of televisions and refrigerators increase, it will only affect those who have some money. But the price increase of meat, eggs and vegetables is too outrageous.

So after Li Ye arrived at the first branch factory, he called Section Chief Yao who was in charge of logistics.

"Lao Yao, the May Day holiday is coming soon, and our new project will take 100 days to complete. Please go and purchase some grain, oil, rice and flour and distribute them to our employees as welfare."

Section Chief Yao immediately agreed, "Okay, Director, I'll make a list right away and show it to you later." But Li Ye instructed again, "We need food, oil, vegetables, and eggs. The quantity should be based on the 100-day rations for a family of four."

"."

Section Chief Yao was stunned for a moment, and said with some embarrassment: "Director, what you are talking about is based on a hundred days of food rations, which is a lot! Four people need at least one or two kilograms of food a day. Our factory has five or six thousand employees. It is impossible to buy so much at once at a fair price."

Li Ye raised his eyelids and said, "Then buy it at a high price! How much can grain, oil, rice and flour cost? One hundred kilograms of rice, one hundred kilograms of flour, and twenty kilograms of oil. One person only costs a few hundred yuan. Why are you so distressed?"

Section Chief Yao smiled awkwardly and said, "I don't feel bad. I'm just afraid that those people in the main factory will see that our welfare is so good and start to compare with us again. Director, you don't know that those jealous people are staring at us every day."

Li Ye waved his hand and said, "No matter how severe their conjunctivitis is, it can't spread to our first branch. You should go and do it as soon as possible.
I saw a long line at the grain and oil store on the road today. We are about to start a 100-day hard work. Do you want the workers to take their days off to queue up to buy things?
Since you are in charge of logistics, you have to solve the worries of the employees. If you fail to buy things and delay production, don't blame me for saying you are incompetent."

"Hey, I'll go right away. Director, don't worry. Not only can I buy it, but I can also try to save money for our company."

Section Chief Yao quickly agreed. Li Ye had said that if he couldn't get it at a low price, he would buy it at a high price. The branch factory was not short of money, so as long as Li Ye signed, the finance department would never hesitate.

However, Section Chief Yao did not want to buy too much high-priced grain, as he had to save money for the factory.

Everyone knows how to act like a boss when they pay for things! If you can't perform the tasks assigned by the factory manager, wouldn't it be considered as a failure?

"Hello? Lao Meng! This is Lao Yao. Our company needs to purchase employee benefits. How much grain, oil, eggs and vegetables do you have planned for the third quarter? Leave them all to me."

"Oh my brother, even a lion can't open his mouth as wide as you do. If I let you take care of everything, my position as a director will be over. You don't know how many grandfathers I have to serve every day."

"Stop talking nonsense. Does your son want to come to our first branch after he graduates this year? Let me tell you, our workers' wages are over 300 yuan, and they will increase in the second half of the year. There are already many grandfathers lining up to find connections!"

"Okay, okay, brother, don't say anything. I'll give you an inventory right now. If you think it's not enough, I'll think of something else for you. But you have to tell me the number first."

"Well, just calculate it based on the share of six thousand families for one hundred days!"

"."

Director Meng was choked, and after a long while he asked, "Brother Yao, are you guys going to prepare for war?"

Section Chief Yao said: "Yes! We will work hard for 100 days!"

Director Meng paused, and suddenly whispered, "Brother Yao, have you heard any rumors?"

Section Chief Yao asked in confusion: "Rumor? What does that mean?"

Director Meng chuckled a few times and said, "I remember you said that your factory director is a capable person who can raise tens of millions of foreign exchange. He can easily lend money to the bank. Now there are 900 million people out of the 1 billion yuan."

"Sigh~"

Section Chief Yao was stunned for a moment, and whispered: "What do you mean?"

Director Meng said, "Yes, that's what I meant. How about we pour it out as well?"
