The night was silent.
August 1st, 1978, 6 AM
Qin Yi was woken up by the alarm clock.
It was exactly six o'clock. The room was still dark, but the sky outside was already bright.
"Sleeping in a quiet environment is really comfortable. However, his body seemed to have changed after transmigrating.”
He didn't know if it was because he ate meat to replenish his energy, or because he had transmigrated and reincarnated, or because he was young, but he could feel that his body had been very energetic for the past two days.
For example, the day before yesterday, he did not sleep for the entire night. He was not tired after a busy day.
He boiled some water for himself.
In order to prevent himself from being fixed at a height of 1.6 meters, Qin Yi prepared to eat well in the morning.
Pure milk, bread, eggs, and a sweet potato. In the future, it would be a nutritious breakfast.
After breakfast, she shredded some sweet potatoes from the kitchen and poured them into the pig trough before leaving the house. He would feed her again when he came back at night.
When Qin Yi arrived at the cooperative, it was almost seven o'clock.
However, when he entered the cooperative, he suddenly saw the people inside dressed neatly and doing something.
Jiang Peng also changed into a clean army green shirt.
Jiang Peng, who was lowering his head to tidy his collar, saw Qin Yi and quickly walked over."
"Hurry up, your things are ready. In the work clothes room. She quickly changed into it. Ten minutes left."
Qin Yi didn't understand what Jiang Peng was saying and was a little nervous. "What happened?" she asked hurriedly.
"I forgot to tell you yesterday. Today is the 8th Army Day." They had to dress neatly and raise the national flag. The national flag would be raised on every major festival.”
Upon hearing this, Qin Yi finally understood and hurriedly went to the changing room.
This was the first time he had participated in raising the national flag in such a solemn manner other than studying.
His clothes were new, his shoes were liberated shoes, and he was wearing an army green shirt. This type of clothing was not considered a formal military uniform, but a semi-uniform. However, it was not required to be worn at work.
He quickly changed his clothes and went outside.
At this moment, the entire supply and marketing cooperative had already begun to line up.
The Sales Division, the Consolidated Purchasing Division, and the Production Division had a total of 20 people. There were the most people in the purchase department, followed by the production department, and finally the sales department. However, the one with the highest status seemed to be the sales department.
In the past, customers were gods, but now, salespeople were gods.
The first row was the sales department.
The second row was the production department.
The third row was the purchase department.
Under Jiang Peng's call, they came to the third row and stood beside him.
As he stood there, he was unaware of the surprise and envy in the eyes of the others.
Jiang Peng was the confidant of the section chief in the unified purchase department of the supply and marketing cooperative. Now that Jiang Peng was greeting Qin Yi like this, it meant that Qin Yi was also the Section Chief's man. This time, everyone had a plan in their hearts.
As for the people from the sales department and the production department, they only glanced at Qin Yi and ignored the tanned young man.
"Alright, I'll do it. Raise the flag."
Standing in front of the three lines were three section chiefs. In front of the section chiefs were a director and a deputy director.
The one who shouted was the director.
The chief physician was called Zhao Yu, and the deputy chief physician was called Chen Qiuyi.
Compared to Director Zhao Yu, Chen Qiuyi was much thinner. The cheekbones on his face were very obvious, and his skin was a little dark. If they walked on the road, they would be no different from those busy farmers.
"Yes, sir!" Chen Qiuyi replied.
At this moment, the prepared flag-bearers began. Salute, goose-step. Step by step, they arrived at the flag pole.
The flag was new and would be changed and washed every month. Apart from major festivals, the national flag would also be raised on the 1st of every month.
Next, they played and sang the National Anthem.
Qin Yi's expression was extremely serious. He sang the national song and looked at the slowly rising flag.
In a trance, he realized that even though he had transmigrated to this era, the only thing that had not changed and was familiar to him was this flag.
Only this flag made him realize that even in the 1970s, he was still the same person!
The only changes were the person, time, and place!
Everyone was very solemn. There was no one who sang the national anthems and laughed like in the later generations. In this era, love for one's country was at its hottest. Everything was for the collective benefit.
After the ceremony. Director Zhao Yu looked at everyone and said,
"Today is August 1st. Congratulations on the 51st year of the founding of the army. Although we are not soldiers, we must remember that we serve the party, the country, and the people…"
Qin Yi listened to Director Zhao's speech and wanted to hear what the leader would say at this time.
However, Zhao Yu clearly didn't want to say anything. He didn't have the vanity that some people had. After saying a few key words neatly, he got people to start working.
Seeing this, he guessed that the director was the kind of person who did things. It was not easy to fool.
"Qin Yi, from today onwards, you'll drive with me. I'll bring you around to familiarize you with some things.”
Back in the changing room of the purchase department, Jiang Peng quickly changed his clothes and instructed Qin Yi.
Qin Yi nodded from time to time.
Familiarizing himself with the route was indeed what he needed.
"Now, most of the villages have basically finished harvesting the rice. After drying it, they will have to go to the grain collection station to pay the public grain. After that, we'll get busy. Most of the villages would sell some of their surplus agricultural products to the supply and marketing cooperative after paying the public grain. We have to go to the village to collect some."
"Then what kind of agricultural products do we usually harvest more?" Qin Yi suddenly understood.”
He felt that he might be able to find out what supplies he lacked from here.
"There are more sweet potatoes and fruits. Most communities would exchange fruits for sweet potatoes, and sweet potatoes for money or various tickets.”
Outside, Jiang Peng sat in the driver's seat while Qin Yi sat in the passenger seat. At this time, Jiang Peng continued,"
"Of course, the supply and marketing cooperative has more to do than that.
Other than the monopoly, we also helped some of the communities to collectively exchange for some excess industrial products. This was not speculation.
The state helps the people solve their problems. This method of unified purchase and marketing is the core of our supply and marketing co-op. It would also allow them to better allocate resources.”
Qin Yi smiled when he heard that.
This was true.
For example, state-owned hotels, hotels, factories, and so on all belonged to the country. Naturally, any transaction could not be confused with personal business.
"Alright, let's go." Jiang Peng looked at the rearview mirror and started to reverse the car. "We're going to the North Lake Commune now. The supply and marketing branch in the village had already informed them two days ago. First, he would go and collect their agricultural products.”
"Have you found your car?" Qin Yi suddenly asked.
"It's a public property. The police will naturally settle it." Jiang Peng nodded. After all, I've seen one of them before. We can't run."
At this moment, there were more people in Dadong Town than yesterday afternoon. After all, the weather was the coolest at this time, and there were the most people going to the market.
Otherwise, the sun would be very hot later.
The location of the supply and marketing cooperative was not remote, but the back door was more spacious. No one stopped him.
On the road, Jiang Peng started smoking.
However, Qin Yi noticed that he was not using a lighter, but a match. This time, he seemed to have guessed something. He did not ask further.
This kind of lighter was really better than ordinary things when used as gifts.
Needless to say, this thing must have been given to Zhang Yongkun.
"You don't have to say. I used a lighter yesterday. It's much more convenient than a match.”Jiang Peng sighed.
Qin Yi sneered in his heart. However, he smiled.
"Brother Jiang, don't worry. I have another lighter at home. I'll give you some tomorrow. But I've been using the lighter for a few days. I hope Brother Jiang doesn't mind.”
Hearing this, Jiang Peng quickly said,"No, no." Don't worry. In the future, if anything good happens in the marketing agency, I will definitely follow you closely.”
"Haha, thank you, Brother Jiang.”Qin Yi said with a smile. He was even happier.
Greed was right.
I'm just afraid that you don't want anything.
This way, it would be easier to change things tomorrow.
The two of them chatted along the way. Qin Yi pretended to be someone who didn't know anything. He kept flattering Jiang Peng to get the information he needed.
For example, why was the associate chief physician so thin?
What did Section Chief Zhang like to do?
The director's background.
The rules of the car.
Lin Yongzhuang's matter.
Wait a minute.
When they reached the North Lake Commune Brigade, they stopped.
