Chapter 959 How About We Also Fall Down?
Although Wen Leyu stepped on Li Ye's feet until they were almost swollen, Li Ye still sent her to work diligently.
As long as my little wife cooperates as enthusiastically as she did last night, it's worth breaking her legs!
Wen Leyu kept a straight face and said nothing. It was clearly Li Ye's fault. Why did it seem like she was the one who made the mistake in the end?
Li Ye's sullen face was funny, but he could only think of how to find something to say to resolve the embarrassment.
While passing a grain and oil store, Li Ye suddenly saw a long line of people lining up at the door.
"Hey, Xiaoyu, look, why are there people queuing up so early? I haven't been home from work these days. Is the supply of food and oil tight again?"
Wen Leyu rolled his eyes at Li Ye and said, "Since when have you ever cared about the firewood, rice, oil and salt at home? It's only when the supply is tight! I'll starve you half to death, leaving you with no energy to do bad things."
Li Ye curled his lips and said very firmly: "You will let me starve? It would be weird to believe you!"
Wen Leyu laughed angrily: "Yes, yes, you are the backbone of the family. You are grandma's precious egg. You are the crown prince of the old Li family. If there is a bite of food in the family, I must give it to you first."
"Hahahaha~"
Li Ye smiled proudly, looking like a shameless rogue.
However, after Wen Leyu scolded him for a long time, his little face could no longer tighten up.
Then she explained: "Since last month, the prices of high-priced grains and high-priced meats have risen sharply. Many people in our unit are queuing up to stock up on grains! My dad said that the country has been increasing the import of grains, but at least it will be imported next time. It takes months to get relief”
"Will it be relieved next month?"
Li Ye nodded lightly, as if he agreed with Wen Leyu's prediction.
But he knows that the food supply will not be relieved next month, let alone next month, because the market breakthrough is coming soon.
In 1988, the mainland had actually implemented a "dual-track system" for several years. The planned ratio of food to food was about 6:4.
Because the price of grain is not high, the market control is pretty good. After all, Tao Ye also pays attention to cost-effectiveness. He can make ten yuan a day from grain, and two hundred from steel.
But starting from May, this ratio will be completely liberalized, and even ordinary people who can't make a note can feel the taste of "price fluctuations."
Do you really think that those investors in future generations are just here to make money?
No, they are enjoying the thrill of earning the price difference. Even if they are trapped, they still have the obsession to turn losses into profits. This feeling makes people want to stop and keep going ashore.
So if these people queuing up to buy food bought 50 cents per jin of rice today, and the price rises to 55 cents tomorrow, then their happiness is not at all a matter of a few cents.
"Alas, retail investors are always hurt by the stock market, and civilians are also hurt by price increases!"
Throughout 1988, the overall price increase in the mainland was as high as 20.7%, more than double the previous 8.8% in 1987.
Among them, the prices of vegetables, meat and eggs all increased by more than 30%, while the price increases of televisions, refrigerators and other items were even more exaggerated, reaching 50%.
No matter how much the price of TVs and refrigerators rises, it will only affect people who have a lot of money in their hands, but the price increase of meat, eggs and vegetables is too abominable.
So after Li Ye arrived at the first branch factory, he called Section Chief Yao, who was in charge of logistics.
"Old Yao, it's May Day now, and our new project will take a hundred days to work on. You go purchase a batch of grain, oil, rice and noodles and distribute them as welfare to the employees of our unit."
Section Chief Yao immediately agreed: "Okay, director, I will make a list right away and show it to you later."
But Li Ye instructed again: "You must have grain, oil, vegetables, and eggs. The portions are determined according to the 100-day rations for a family of four."
"."
Section Chief Yao was stunned and said with some embarrassment: "Director, what you said is based on one hundred days of rations. That's a lot! Four people need at least one or two kilograms of food a day. Our factory has five to six thousand employees. , I bought so much at once, it’s impossible to buy them all at the same price.”
Li Ye raised his eyelids and said, "Then buy at a high price! How much can you get from grain, oil, rice and noodles? One hundred catties of rice, one hundred catties of white flour, twenty catties of oil. Each person only earns a few hundred yuan. Why do you feel bad?"
Section Chief Yao smiled awkwardly and said: "I don't feel bad. I'm just afraid that when the people in the main factory see how good our welfare is, they will start to compare themselves with each other. Director, you don't know that those pink-eyed people are staring at us every day."
Li Ye waved his hands and said: "No matter how severe their pink eye disease is, they can't infect our branch factory. You should get it done as soon as possible."
I saw another queue at the grain and oil store on the road today. We are about to work for 100 days. Are you going to let the workers take off work to queue up to buy groceries?
Since you are responsible for logistics, you have to take care of the employees' worries. If you can't buy things and delay production, don't blame me for saying you are incompetent."
"Hey, hey, I'll go right away. Don't worry, factory director, 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 already said that if you can't buy at a low price, buy at a high price. The first branch factory is not short of money. As long as Li Ye signs, the finances will never be in trouble.
However, Section Chief Yao didn't want to buy too much high-priced grain. He had to save money for the factory.
Who doesn’t know how to use money to buy things and become a master? If you can't show your ability in the errands assigned by the factory director, wouldn't it mean that you are incompetent?

"Hello? Lao Meng! I'm 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 if you open your mouth wide, you can't play like this. If I let you take it all, my position as a small director will also end. 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 graduating this year? Let me tell you, our workers' wages have exceeded 300, and they will increase in the second half of the year. There are many grandfathers lining up to find connections now!"
"Okay, okay, brother, don't say anything. I'll give you an inventory now. If you think it's not enough, I'll think of a way for you, but you have to give me a number first."
"Well, just calculate it based on the share of 6,000 families for 100 days!"
"."
Director Meng was choked, and after a long time he asked: "Brother Yao, are you preparing for war?"
Section Chief Yao said: "Yes! We are working hard for 100 days!"
Director Meng paused, and suddenly whispered: "Brother Yao, have you heard any rumors?"
Section Chief Yao asked puzzledly: "Rumors? What do you mean?"
Director Meng chuckled a few times and said: "I remember you said that your factory director is a capable person who can attract tens of millions of foreign exchange. Bank loans are now 900 million people going bankrupt."
"Hiss~"
Section Chief Yao was stunned and whispered: "What do you mean"
Director Meng said: "Well, that's what I mean, how about we go bankrupt too?"
