Chapter 306
A one-and-a-half-month-old child is already very interesting to play with.
Luo Cheng returned to Changcheng and spent two days relaxing with his wife and children.
Then he started to contact the transportation station. After promising certain benefits, he reluctantly agreed to call a truck to specifically cooperate with Luo Cheng's material transportation. The main reason is that the transportation capacity is so low these days, let alone arranging a car specifically to cooperate with you. Even if it is a delivery, you should contact him in advance and treat the driver well.
Being able to get a truck and listen to Luo Cheng's arrangements was really a great honor for him. Of course, the main reason is that Luo Cheng gave a lot of supplies, although they also cost money. But being able to spend money to buy supplies is pretty good these days. If it doesn't cost money, the transportation station won't dare ask for it.
After returning to Changcheng to rest for two days, Luo Cheng also started to take action. He got a batch of chickens from the warehouse and told Changcheng Poultry Factory that they were new varieties from Jiangcheng. The director of the poultry factory in Changcheng happily accepted the exchange just because he was larger in size, just like the one in Jiangcheng.
He even gave Luo Cheng two old hens and some eggs as a token of thanks. Luo Cheng was a local and worked locally. Even if the chickens they obtained had not started laying eggs, the poultry factory felt that Luo Cheng would not lie to them. Naturally, he thought that Luo Cheng was helping to take care of their poultry factory, so it was reasonable to give him some eggs and chickens as thanks.
After exchanging chickens in Changcheng, Luo Cheng called Er Gouzi and others in the town to the warehouse. He began to waste all kinds of supplies, but even if Luo Cheng's waste was powerful, for a city with a population of hundreds of thousands, it couldn't afford any waste.
Luo Cheng's previously self-righteous idea of quantitative balance made him find it somewhat unrealistic. In his previous opinion, as long as enough materials were transferred to his own era, it would benefit the people below.
For example, if there are 10,000 people in a town, Luo Cheng only needs to transfer supplies for more than 10,000 people, and then the area will be rich in supplies.
But Luo Cheng was born as an Orion after all, and his consideration of the issue was very one-sided. A town may not have a large population, but people in an urban area must consume hundreds of tons of food rations every day.
The supplies that Luo Cheng spent could only benefit some of the units and people he came into contact with, and would really not make any waves in the overall historical situation.
The weather is getting hotter and more and more people are fleeing. Many cities are good if they can guarantee domestic water supply, but in the face of drought, they can only stare blankly.
Luo Cheng discovered that he might really be a good person. Faced with many refugees, he really couldn't do anything to save them. He didn't save those people before, not because he was cold-hearted, but because he couldn't save them in the first place, and it's not easy to give a lot of charity these days.
In fact, Luo Cheng's efforts over the past year were not without effect. At least there are many kind-hearted people among the employees of some units who benefited from him. Especially some older people who have experienced the famine for four or more years. I know how difficult it is for these people to escape here.
It can be said that kind-hearted people these days are truly kind-hearted. Many people who don’t have much to eat at home will help as many people as possible when they come to beg for food, even if it is a thin mouthful of food. Many factories provide benefits for the materials Luo Cheng obtained. When these benefits are given to workers, some of them will use them to help others.
One person, a wooden bucket, a big spoon, a bucket of coarse grain porridge, or porridge that can't hold up chopsticks.
Over at Changcheng Warehouse, Luo Cheng's sister and sister-in-law cooked porridge and porridge every day. In addition to helping transport goods, others went to the streets to help those fleeing the famine.
The risk for Luo Cheng to do this was very high. In this era of eating rations, if someone reported him to someone for eating so much, there would be no explanation at all.
And this kind of porridge-giving thing doesn't involve just one or two people. To be honest, it can't be kept secret at all. But this is doing something good. Even if someone sees it, they will mutter in their hearts whether it is organized by a local unit or a big factory. As for individuals, even if they are leading cadres with good conditions, they can do it once in a while, but if they do it regularly, no matter how high the subsidy is, they will not have so much food to do it.
Ordinary people usually just think about it and don't do much. But some departments also discovered this situation, but were temporarily suppressed by some people. Because if we go to investigate, we will find that there is no problem, so it would be unnecessary. The investigation found that there is a problem. Under the current world situation, even if there is a problem, as long as everyone's conscience is still intact, they don't want to investigate.
The people close to him who helped Luo Cheng to eat were Ergouzi and his wife, Luo Cheng's sister and brother-in-law, brother and sister-in-law, and relatives of Chen Lezi's wife and Luo Cheng's father. Now everyone knows that there is something wrong with what they are doing. Before buying things and helping to deal with things, Luo Chengdu could make excuses and say that he was helping this or that unit.
But if this charity was given to countless people fleeing famine, if it was organized by a work unit or factory, it could be done with great fanfare. They always thought that Luo Cheng would make some money as the head of the purchasing department in a machinery factory. But after taking out the food for charity, many people didn't know what to say.
Although they didn't know where Luo Cheng got the food, they basically persuaded him not to do this, even though everyone knew that those who fled the famine were very pitiful. Luo Cheng can save many people by doing this, but ordinary people must know how to protect themselves wisely.
Luo Cheng actually hesitated. After all, he had a family. If something happened to him, he had to consider his children.
But just when Luo Cheng was hesitant, Director Sun in the factory found out about him giving porridge in the warehouse. Then I had a talk with Luo Cheng alone. Director Sun also admired Luo Cheng's actions, but he also knew that the things Luo Cheng obtained must have come from "incorrect ways."
Director Sun gave Luo Cheng a choice, or let Luo Cheng stop immediately, if he really didn't. If Luo Cheng wants to continue to rescue those fleeing from famine, he can give alms in the name of the machinery factory.
At least doing this in the name of a machinery factory can dispel many people's suspicions. But after all, there is no real food expenditure in the factory. If it is investigated, Luo Cheng will still have to bear it.
And if possible, Director Sun can go and tell the factory director that material support cannot be provided, but money can be provided, and he can even call other factories to support him. But basically it is difficult to provide materials, so you can only provide some money.
Therefore, after thinking about it for a while, Luo Cheng decided to continue giving alms. In terms of food, drink and money, he really has nothing to pursue. The hard work I have done this year has always been about benefiting the people around me. If he really wants to only care about himself, he doesn't have to do anything. He can just bring his own food and drink from the future era.
If you want wealth, you actually don’t have to do anything at all, such as based on information from the future era. When these two years have passed, collect some good wine and save some stamps. Even in ten or twenty years, go to Sijiucheng and buy a courtyard house.
Even if you are a little bolder, in the year before the era of educated youth going to the countryside, many people fled to Xiangjiang and other places abroad. Many things are processed cheaply, and Luo Cheng's collection of just a few will be enough for him to become a rich man in the future.
Until the end, Luo Cheng never thought that he would be a good person. In the past, there were a lot of fights in the town. The uncle could eat whatever he wanted in the vegetable field, but it was just the Huohuo family.
In the past, I also thought about doing some bad things and getting a woman to sleep with through informal means. If you can't live any longer, why don't you do something illegal?
There was an unexpected encounter, and the brother went to throw shit at the person who offended him and ruined his job. He even likes to eat good food in front of others and watch them get greedy. And when it comes to women, there is no control.
But in the end, because of some unrelated people, they still chose to continue the rescue. If people in the future know what he did, they might say "Mr. Da Yi".
With Director Sun's support and the participation of other units, Ergouzi and the others began to work with great fanfare.
In addition, the matter between Er Gouzi and Qin Ru was also discussed with Luo Cheng in private.
Luo Cheng could only say that Ergouzi, you are a real dog. After so many years of seriousness, this Ergouzi would actually fall for a woman. He has a wife in his hometown, so if he wants to play, he can find a sweetheart in the city. It's not impossible to find a widow, but don't find one with two children. Now that she is pregnant through surgery, it will not be a matter of raising one more baby in the future. She may have to raise the other two children at the same time.
But Er Gouzi's wife's stomach is still silent. People these days are very interested in whether they have offspring. Asking Qin Ru to abort the child, Luo Cheng couldn't say anything. Ergouzi didn't have children, what if his cousin's wife really couldn't have children.
So what his brother did was really good. Not only did he help Ergouzi raise a wife, but he also had to help him raise a lover and even a child. But between brothers, if you have the ability, you really don’t have to worry about this. If Luo Cheng had something to do with someone, Ergouzi would be the one to do it. Ergouzi likes to put on sacks, either because he's not a good fighter or because he just likes to do it.
As soon as things here were settled, Luo Cheng also applied for a marriage certificate in the factory. After getting the certificate with Zhao Qian, he started to go to Jiangcheng.
But when heading to Jiangcheng, I first stopped by Macheng, met Zheng Ke's sister, and asked her how to do the handiwork. And when he left, he gave her a sum of money and asked her to do things for him.
After arriving in Jiangcheng, I made a realistic fake certificate in the future era without the Internet. I actually got another marriage certificate with Zheng Ke in Jiangcheng.
On this day, Luo Cheng really began to live happily and normally again. Because a person's energy is limited, Luo Cheng can only occasionally travel to other cities to exchange supplies for some cans. Then he bought several regional brand can labels at the cannery in Future Era.
In addition, the rice dumping was going on smoothly during the spring harvest. Luo Cheng not only exchanged old rice with some coarse grains for new rice at the machinery factory, but also at the magazine and newspaper offices in Jiangcheng. In Macheng, Luo Cheng's sister-in-law Zheng Xin also organized people to help Luo Cheng exchange rice.
In the future era, Luo Cheng will no longer do whatever he thinks of. In many industries, it is not difficult for him to make money as long as he is willing to make some changes and take advantage of the cheap labor force of his time. But it involves too many industries, and even if Luo Cheng hires someone to help manage it, he doesn't have that much energy to do it.
After the eels and soft-shelled turtles were completely sold out, there was no need to worry about them anymore. Some stores have been converted to sell local chickens and eggs, and the number of local chicken restaurant chain stores has also been steadily increasing.
As for large canteens, they have also gained a good reputation in Jiangcheng. There are large canteens with various names such as the large canteen of textile factories, the large canteen of agricultural machinery factories, the large canteen of machine repair factories, etc. Anyway, the purpose of the canteen is to provide service first and profit secondarily. But if you sincerely serve everyone and consider everyone, you will also gain everyone's support.
In the Jiangcheng area, some people started to really say that this supermarket is owned by someone from the east, and there is a "Jiangcheng" big canteen for meals. Many families who don't want to prepare meals simply use the canteen as a place to eat three meals a day. Affordable and healthy.
Because both the canteen and the local chicken restaurant needed to purchase other vegetables, Luo Cheng also began to form his own transportation team to collect vegetables directly from first-hand vegetable vendors. The purchase price is directly cheaper. If the volume can be larger in the future, we can directly cooperate with vegetable farmers and further reduce costs.
They even contracted land for large-scale planting, but there were so many chain stores in Luocheng that they almost left Jiangcheng.
Liu Xiaofei originally planned to take the Internet celebrity route by virtue of her pure and lustful image and her own capital. But readers and authors in the online literary world have been led astray. At first, they only filmed the golden opening plot and accumulated a lot of fans. However, the cost of filming was not small. Even if there are some rewards for live broadcasts and dividends for on-demand viewing on the platform, the team is expanding and the profits are Can't keep up with the investment.
Later, I planned to join the short drama market that is currently in the spotlight. Web dramas were popular before, and the filming of web dramas was no different from that of TV dramas. But the investment in short dramas is even smaller, with only a few minutes per episode, and the main focus is either a fun plot or a bloody one. Even though a short drama may have eighty, ninety, or even hundreds of episodes, the overall duration may only be a few hundred minutes. If you invest, you can actually produce a short drama at a very low cost, and short dramas are a new market, and in the field, it is really low investment and high profit.
Luo Cheng and Liu Xiaofei also held a wedding banquet in October and bought a nice house in Liu Xiaofei's hometown. However, due to age issues, the two were temporarily unable to obtain a marriage certificate.
In the blink of an eye, two years passed. In Luo Cheng's era, the food rations that had previously reduced the urban population began to recover. Porridge charity in the name of multi-factory alliances has also begun to end.
But for two consecutive years of giving out porridge, even if many factories joined forces, many people at the top actually realized something was wrong. Because there is no food donation or anything like that, if we could help people by giving money, local units would have taken action long ago.
However, in the eyes of outsiders, this matter was led by the director and director of the machinery factory. It can only be said that there is something wrong with this matter in the eyes of caring people. But it was a good thing. Some people wanted to check it out, but they were stopped by some leaders above who were determined to serve the people.
