"It's too expensive. I don't dare to take it.”
Yu Haitang quickly refused, but she was still happy.
With the current price of a bicycle, it was really too difficult to buy one.
"Let's go. I'll treat you to caviar at a western restaurant today.”
Xu Damao had recently received more than 10,000 yuan in industrial bonds. Just these alone would be worth a lot of money in the future.
Thinking of this era, he had not been to a western restaurant in Beijing yet. It was a good time to experience it.
Xu Damao brought Yu Haitang all the way to a western restaurant in Beijing.
The two of them went in to find a seat and ordered caviar. The waiter's attitude was neither cold nor warm.
When the caviar was served, some side dishes and desserts were also served.
"Try it."
Xu Damao ate a spoonful with a spoon. The taste was not bad, and there was nothing special about it.
Perhaps it was his first time eating it, so he couldn't taste anything.
On the other side, Yu Haitang was eating happily.
There were also some desserts that he liked quite a bit.
In fact, many people came to Western restaurants and didn't eat steak. They only ate all kinds of cream desserts.
To be honest, foreign desserts were not to everyone's taste. They were expensive and not delicious. It was not worth it.
The meal of caviar cost 32.60 yuan.
It was about the same salary as an official first-class worker.
"It's too expensive. It's better to eat Quanjude. At least you can eat it a few more times.”
After leaving the restaurant, Yu Haitang felt that it was not worth it.
Thinking about it carefully, he might as well eat a few more meals of roast duck.
"It's okay. We don't come here every day. It's not a big deal to come here a few times a year.”
Xu Damao was barely satisfied because eating these things did not cost much.
It was a little expensive, but after careful calculation, caviar in the future would probably cost more than 10,000 yuan.
Actually, there was no difference.
Xu Damao sent Yu Haitang home and then went back to enjoy the rare rest time today.
The entire day's schedule was packed, but they could finally relax at night.
……
In the following days, Xu Damao continued to collect industrial bonds from the workers.
When he had time, he would go for a ride with Yu Haitang.
Occasionally, he would play movies for the factory leaders, and from time to time, he would play movies for the villagers in the countryside.
After that, he would play chess with the leaders.
Previously, the higher-ups had been defeated by Xu Damao's Great Avalanche Style and had been thinking of a way to crack it for the past few days.
Fortunately, Xu Damao's skill level was not high. After thinking about it, he immediately called Xu Damao over.
Losing to the Great Avalanche once again, the leaders were still unwilling…
For the next few months, he had been playing chess with Xu Damao.
He could tell that Xu Damao's chess skills were indeed not high.
It was just that he did not know where he had learned this strange move from, but sometimes it suddenly produced miraculous effects.
Other than playing chess, Xu Damao still went to the Lou family to play movies, but his relationship with Lou Xiao'e remained ordinary.
Director Lou was anxious, but he didn't have a good solution.
He understood his daughter too well. She was still very ambitious.
On the other side, the courtyard continued to raise pigs.
The breeder was still Xu Damao. No one else had this ability.
Who could guarantee that they could raise pigs until they were white and fat?
"Damao, whether or not the entire academy can eat this meat depends on you.”
Yi Zhonghai put the two male pigs into the pen with a serious expression.
In the second half of the year, the quota was increased by half a catty, but it was still not enough.
Fortunately, most of the people in the courtyard were workers at the rolling mill, so they could bring back meat and vegetables every day.
Now, the meal tickets given to the workers by the rolling mill were privately sold for more than ten cents.
Because only with a meal ticket could one buy meat and vegetables, the value of a meal ticket was obvious.
There was a shortage of pork in the market, and a small amount of beef and mutton was often not available.
The workers cared more about the meat and vegetables in the rolling mill, so no one was willing to give their meal tickets to others.
The meal tickets were used on the same day, so there was no chance to fake them.
Therefore, even if the price of the meal ticket rose to more than ten cents, not many people were willing to sell it.
Everyone was not stupid. It was easy to sell it, but where could they buy pork in the future?
Only some workers who were short of money, such as temporary workers, sometimes had to sell their meal tickets for a few days to others in order to pay off the two yuan per month rent.
……
"First Uncle, leave it to me. Don't worry.”
After castrating the pigs, the two little pigs slowly grew to more than 100 pounds under Xu Damao's care.
Near the end of the year, the two pigs had successfully grown to 200 catties.
In the backyard, next to the pigsty.
"I say, this pig is really fat.”
"You've indeed raised her well. Da Mao, you're really good.”
"I think it's about time. Let's kill one and share the meat with everyone.”
……
The three elders discussed around the pigsty and decided that there was no need to hold a meeting.
This time, we'll kill them directly and split the meat immediately after.
He called everyone out, closed the front courtyard door, and started slaughtering the pigs on the spot.
Needless to say, it was better to leave it to He Yuzhu. After all, he was a chef. He was familiar with this matter.
"Brothers and sisters, fellow villagers, everyone, watch carefully. In a while, this white knife will enter and the red knife will come out.”
He Yuzhu held the butcher knife and quickly took the opportunity to show off.
Usually, it was the three masters who made the decisions. No matter what, he had to be arrogant.
"Silly Zhu, hurry up, everyone is waiting.”
Yan Bugui was already prepared to catch the pig's blood. Seeing He Yuzhu's antics, he was instantly unhappy.
What a waste of time. He still had to split the pork later.
"Alright, alright, alright. Watch carefully."
He Yuzhu easily finished it with one slash. Next, everyone took turns to receive the pig's blood.
After the pig blood was divided, Yan Bugui divided the water, pork, and bones one by one.
"We have this pork to eat. First of all, we have to thank Xu Damao.”
"If it weren't for Xu Damao, our entire academy wouldn't be able to eat such a fat pig.”
After distributing the pork, Yi Zhonghai did not let everyone leave. Instead, he took the lead to thank Xu Damao.
No matter how Xu Damao got the feed, he was the biggest contributor.
These two years had been difficult for everyone.
The ration was too little, it was not enough at all.
It was said that a physical education teacher in a school in the capital requested to exchange one catty of grain for seven catties of feed for the livestock because there was not enough food every month.
If he was forced into a corner, he would have to eat even the feed.
If he was forced to this extent, the situation could be imagined.
"That's right, we have to thank Da Mao.”
Liu Haizhong used industrial bonds to exchange for a lot of benefits from Xu Damao and was willing to put in a good word for him.
Yan Bugui was the same. The two of them stood firmly on Xu Damao's side.
Yi Zhonghai glanced at them from the corner of his eyes and quickly moved away.
In fact, Yi Zhonghai had taken the initiative to give the industrial bonds to Xu Damao, but Xu Damao did not accept it.
He had more than 40,000 industrial bonds in his hands, so he didn't care about the money that the First Uncle had.
It wasn't easy for the old man to keep the industrial bonds in his hands and wait for them to appreciate in value.
"Yes, yes, yes. We have to thank Da Mao!”
"Damao, not bad! We all saw it!"
"Who is my Brother Xu? I told you he was capable!”
……
Whether it was the older generation or the younger generation, they all agreed with the three grandmasters.
Amidst the enthusiastic cheers, everyone went home to boil oil.
By the New Year, Xu Damao had 70,000 industrial bonds.
It wasn't just the rolling mill. People from other units had exchanged industrial coupons with Xu Damao through the workers of the rolling mill.
Otherwise, just the steel mill alone would not have so many industrial coupons.
