Mixed in the last days as a salted fish

Chapter 263 "We don't want to starve to death!"

Chapter 263 "We don't want to starve to death!"

Back in Shawei Village, Zhang Hao first went back home, and then went to the house of Chief Fan.

"Dong dong dong..."

"Old Zhang? You are off work, come in quickly."

Village head Fan was all smiles.

Ever since they got married, their family's little life has been very nourishing. Catherine is beautiful and virtuous, and keeps the house in good order. Although the youngest daughter is not his own, it doesn't affect his love at all.

He is full of vigor all over his body now, as if he has become five or six years younger all of a sudden.

Zhang Hao lit up the plastic bucket in his hand: "I brought some milk for Tiantian."

"Hey, just right, the milk your mother gave you last time was almost finished." Village Chief Fan happily took the milk.

Catherine is an older woman, plus she suffered a serious crime in the early stage of pregnancy, and her body is seriously deficient, resulting in a lack of milk. Fortunately, there is milk from the old Zhang's family, otherwise it would be a big trouble.

This was done not only to avoid suspicion, but also to avoid attracting the attention of the WFP.

"Okay, ten tons is 600 million. Zhang Dong, please leave an account, and I will transfer it to you in person later."

He was afraid that he would end up being a human inside and out!

"It's too few. A total of more than 300 million people will be recruited. There are only more than 1 places in Huicheng. They are allocated to various resettlement sites. There are only a few hundred people, which is not enough."

"Zhang Dong, you are too polite!"

"Mr. Zhang, our group has just received an order for the border wall. Your village doesn't want much. I'll transfer a batch to you. What do you think?"

"Mr. Yao, I'm Zhang Hao from Southeast Fishery!"

"Didn't you say three years? Why..."

"Yeah!" Zhang Hao nodded, "Don't look at the police everywhere on the street, but no matter how many police there are, it's impossible to cover everything. Besides, our village is in the suburbs, so the risk is greater, so we must prepare early."

Kate smiled wryly.

"It's all luck!"

"The higher-ups won't agree." Old Angel shook his head, and then explained: "This is the East, not the West. The local residents are already very xenophobic. If the restrictions are really lifted, conflicts will erupt in the next second."

Old Angor thought for a while, and suddenly said in a low voice: "I heard that there will be a war next year. Whether it is going to the factory or going to the battlefield, there will be no chances."

Yao Lei said impatiently.

"What? Where is the war going?"

Usually at home, they speak both languages ​​in a mixture. This is also to exercise the speaking ability of the three children, which is of great benefit to them.

It was good luck to be able to return safely the first two times, but it does not mean that it will continue as before.

Mrs. Angel immediately echoed: "Yes, at the resettlement site, it is said that hundreds of people have starved to death, and more than a dozen families directly chose to commit suicide."

Kate couldn't help complaining.

Yao Lei secretly calculated that Huigang Group has a total of more than 2000 employees, and on average, each person can get ten catties, which is not too small.

"Well, it seems that I'm too greedy. Ten tons is ten tons. Zhang Dong, you can set a price, and I will never bargain."

On the one hand, Village Chief Fan was happy, but on the other hand he was worried, so he couldn't help asking: "Old Zhang, seeing that you are in such a hurry, is something wrong?"

He has been unemployed for more than half a year, and he has no other way to go except for occasional odd jobs.

Zhang Hao shook his head on the spot: "Ten tons is already the limit I can raise. The WFP is not a good stubble. Once they find out, the ten tons may not be able to keep it."

"It's not about the food stamps. They want to force the government to cancel the three-year restriction, and they even have a slogan in mind, called 'We don't want to starve to death'."

"Leave this to me, and I'll figure it out."

Xiao Tiantian is very face-saving, and she giggled happily.

"Can't you find a big factory?"

Village head Fan shook his head: "There is no shortage of money in the village, and the village department can take five points of management fee from the apartment rent every month, which can bring in a lot of money in a year.

"Boss Yao, don't bother, just the fences on both sides of the highway will do. Our village is not on the border, so we can't use such a high standard."

"Thanks!"

Yao Lei seemed extremely enthusiastic.

Next, the two discussed the specific transaction plan, the most important one of which was to move the delivery time to the 23rd of next month, which is the day of the Southern Xiaonian.

"Thank you, thank you so much!"

After all, it is a traditional practice to distribute benefits before the Spring Festival. It is so normal that no one can fault it.

"It's really not good. I heard that the border wall is being built on a large scale in the south, and all the orders have been snatched up by the authorities. It's not that I haven't looked for connections, but in the end I got nothing." Village Chief Fan said helplessly.

Zhang Hao still felt that it was better to keep a low profile.

But I didn't expect that the other party would take the initiative to contact him. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

"Haven't you ever heard the news? There's going to be a war."

Although their family has successfully naturalized, they are still restricted by this regulation, and they don't know that it is the immoral policy that that idiot came up with.

"Dad, wait until next year, to paraphrase a big summer proverb, the day lily will be cold."

"Grandpa, we dare not!"

The main reason is that the production capacity of the small workshop we ordered is seriously insufficient, and the goods cannot be delivered in a short time. "

"Isn't the Federation recruiting soldiers? It's better than waiting to die of starvation, right?" Old Angel reminded.

……

Zhang Hao waved his hands with a smile, then entered the room to say hello to Catherine, and then impatiently came to the crib, teasing the baby with his fingers.

Zhang Hao responded with a smile.

Seriously speaking, he did buy a batch of whale meat from his employees, but the quantity was only two to three tons, and most of the employees were unwilling to sell the whale meat.

"Let your mother show up, and just make a point of it. The three of us don't go out, and Alan and the three of them, let me go to school obediently. If anyone dares to skip class, be careful, I will whip him."

"Don't worry, Mr. Zhang. The products we provide to you are all repaired 'defective products'. Those with formal procedures are not afraid of investigation."

"The specific reason is unclear, but it may be that overfishing has exacerbated the collapse of the ecosystem. In the Southern Ocean, whether it is whales or other fish, large areas are dying.

"Zhang Dong, rare guest, I thought it was the same name, but I didn't expect it to be your real self."

Little Angel didn't want his father to risk his life again.

"Dad, since our family is not short of money, why don't you quit your job?"

"It was originally a one-shot deal. There is nothing to regret. Our family is dependent on others now. It is extremely lucky to have such a good job opportunity."

Of course, it would be great if we could get more. Even if we couldn't get more, it would be nothing but a waste of saliva and nothing to lose.

"What do they want?" Old Angel asked curiously.

Zhang Hao frowned.

"Uncle Fan, I want to ask, when will the construction of our village's fence start?" Zhang Hao cut to the chase.

Kate felt a little regretful: "It's a pity, such a good company, how can it be dissolved?"

Old Angel solemnly warned.

Mrs. Angle at the side heard the words and quickly drew a "ten" on her chest.

Zhang Hao put on a very embarrassing look.

"Yes, the border wall is of uniform specifications, seven or eight meters high, and barbed wire is installed on the top. It is impossible for ordinary people to climb over it. It is much more reliable than ordinary walls."

Some time ago, it wasn't that he hadn't thought about establishing a relationship with the other party and seeking some small benefits for the employees of the group, but after seeing that the bosses of the TV show all failed, and knowing that the chances were slim, he completely gave up his thoughts.

In fact, Zhang Hao has long been mentally prepared.

"Dad, tomorrow's walk is going to be very big. All the cities in Zhuwan District will launch it in unison. Is it appropriate for us not to go?" Little Angel worried.

Old Angel shook his head: "This is the last time to go to sea. I heard from people in our company that next year's year-end bonus will only be much higher. It's a pity to give up like this."

Little Angel was full of doubts.

"Uncle Fan, once a civil war breaks out in the Commonwealth, even though we won't be able to hit our mainland, the refugees have legs, so they will flock to our side frantically.

Yao Lei didn't hesitate at all, and directly agreed. Compared with the scarce resource of whale meat, the iron fence is not worth mentioning at all.

Zhang Hao hurriedly added: "Advancement, I will at most help you buy some whale meat from the employees. The quantity will not be too much, about ten tons."

"Is there not enough money, or..."

Yao Lei was overjoyed in an instant, the success came so easily, he managed to do something that the boss of the TV company had never done, and no one would believe him when he said it.

Without hesitation, Zhang Hao took the initiative to take over the task.

"Mr. Yao, you're making things difficult for me. The food department is watching too closely. I really have no power to do it."

.......
Back home, Zhang Hao immediately took out his mobile phone and dialed a number. The other party was Yao Lei, the general manager of Huicheng Iron and Steel Group. The two parties had met once.

Yao Lei ignored it, and pleaded again: "Director Zhang, help me, next month will be the Spring Festival, at least get some decent New Year's goods for the employees below."

"Whale meat has a lot of fat, which is not comparable to ordinary seafood. How about 300 yuan a catty?"

At least a quarter of our harvest is accidental deaths. If this trend continues, the entire ocean will be empty in a few months. "

In addition, those who choose to leave the resettlement site independently like their family are not even eligible to apply.

"Well, just this time, don't make an example!"

"Zhang Dong, I won't talk nonsense with you, can you save some seafood for us this time like last time?"

Village head Fan couldn't help being taken aback.

"You are too generous, I am an unknown person, so I can afford it..."

After Old Angel finished speaking, he couldn't help sighing.

Little Angel sighed.

"What else can we do? Local people can't find a job, let alone immigrants. In the job market, we are generally discriminated against."

Little Angel shook his head helplessly.

You can even take out a sum of money to help relatives and friends.

This is also the reason why he doesn't want to quit halfway. Wouldn't it be good to save more money while there is still a chance?Don't wait until the job is gone, and you will have no chance if you want to work hard.

Little Angel saw that the atmosphere was a bit strange, so he quickly changed the topic: "Dad, tomorrow morning, the fellow countrymen's association organized a walk, do we want to participate?"

Zhang Hao thought for a while, then declined politely: "Let's forget it, the border wall is too high-profile, isn't this telling others that the two of us are using public affairs for personal gain?"

Little Angel's wife, Kate, couldn't help asking: "Dad, after your company is dissolved, is there any arrangement for you old employees?"

"Mr. Zhang, ten tons is indeed a little short. Can you add more? There are two to three thousand people in our group, and ten tons is really not enough."

As for the rest, it was privately assigned to him by the Ministry of Energy. Although he said that he didn't want to participate in it, he couldn't twist his thigh with his arm, so he had to give in.

At dinner time, the old Anger's family was having a big meal. Thanks to the huge year-end bonus of the old Anger, their living conditions have been greatly improved, and the family is planning to buy a house and settle down in Huicheng.

He is not short of money, and this bit of whale meat can't be sold for much, so it's better to use it as a favor.

Old Angel put down his fork and shook his head.

Compared with the little-known Haotian Group, Southeast Fishery is undoubtedly much more famous and well-known, and even has the reputation of the No. [-] company in Huicheng.

The most important thing is that he just won a year-end bonus of 1000 million not long ago. If he gets another 1000 million next year, his children and grandchildren will not have to worry about their lives.

"No, I heard that it is a direct dismissal. The reason why our company has such a good salary is also due to this consideration. The severance pay has long been added to the salary."

"Border wall?"

"The walk is too extreme, there must be other ways." Elder Angel frowned subconsciously, "What they do will only aggravate the xenophobia of the locals, which is tantamount to dragging everyone into the water, and it won't help at all .”

"But there is no way to go on like this. With the food stamps issued now, I can't get enough to eat at all, not to mention that there is a [-]% discount. If I don't get some food from the black market, I will really be hungry. dead person's."

600 million is not much, and Huigang Group's monthly bonuses are more than this figure.

"It's not urgent, it can be transferred at any time."

"I understand. I'll leave the matter of the fence to you." Village Chief Fan immediately paid attention.

Old Angel said a big Xia saying.

"It's most likely to be the Middle East, and it may also be North Africa. In short, it's not in our homeland, so there's no need to worry too much." Zhang Hao quickly reassured.

The three little guys shook their heads in fright.

Yao Lei nodded in satisfaction.

Yao Lei didn't persuade anymore, and promised on the spot: "Well, we will definitely deliver the goods before next Wednesday."

"You mean law and order will get worse?"

Maybe, the latest wave of refugees is already on the way, who let the capital be next door?After all, all fools know that the capital is the best place to live, and no one will die from starvation. "

Orientals don’t celebrate Christmas, and it happens that tomorrow is Wednesday, and the school will be open as usual.

"The foundation has been dug, but the iron fence is not yet in place. I'm afraid it will take a few more months."

After negotiating the deal, Zhang Hao was not polite, and directly stated his request.

As soon as the time turned, it will soon be December 12, which is Christmas Eve in the West.

"The fence?" Village Chief Fan expressed his confusion.

Village head Fan handed the milk to his wife, and immediately came to Zhang Hao's side: "Tell me, what do you want from me?"

Zhang Hao quoted a relatively low price.

"Okay, don't talk about it." Old Angel patted the desktop: "Speaking of it, these things have nothing to do with our family. You stay at home honestly and don't go out to meddle."

Yao Lei interrupted directly: "Mr. Zhang, don't be modest. Who doesn't know that your fishery company has just returned with a full load and harvested 400 million tons of seafood in one fell swoop, which shocked everyone's jaws."

Little Angel couldn't help complaining.

Little Angel took a sip of red wine: "Dad, we'd better find an excuse, so as not to be..."

"It's not easy to find an excuse? Just say that I'm not feeling well. You two accompanied me to the hospital for an examination. Let's go directly to the hospital tomorrow morning."

Old Angel said disapprovingly.
