The current situation is that the prices of grain and meat products have soared, and people cannot easily buy them every day. Even though He Yuzhu has never personally experienced the situation in (assuming this is the place name) and Pigeon Market, he also knows from the casual chat between Zhao Weiguo and Ma Wenrui in the small courtyard that the price of fresh meat has increased by at least ten times compared with the past.

In the past, the price of wild boar meat was only 10 cents per pound, but now the price has soared to around 10 yuan. Please don't think it is too expensive, because these products are extremely rare and it is difficult to find the source even if you have money.

Some people may ask, isn't it better to buy food directly? If that doesn't work, there are still canned food. This is true, but in any era and at any stage, there will always be wealthy people.

In this period, even the supply of senior leaders is subject to rationing. What can those who rely purely on economic strength do? Their only solution is to buy up high-priced grain and meat at the pigeon market at any price, but where can they find enough stocks?

There is an old saying: "Food is the first necessity of the people!"

You won't die without fancy new clothes, but lack of necessary food can be fatal!

Officials also try to obtain food through this channel. Of course, how they operate is another issue. However, in general, whether it is meat or grain, no matter how high the price is, people cannot avoid the fate of having to buy it.

As for canned food, money is not the universal key to obtain them. A can of food is not only expensive but also requires meat coupons, which are also affected by the "967"

Strict restrictions apply. In terms of taste, it is not unpalatable, but it is not as good as fresh meat. More importantly, fresh meat can be used to extract fat, or dried to make pickled meat or bacon to extend its shelf life, which is much more cost-effective than perishable canned food.

"Manager Chen, I am very happy that you can give me this opportunity to negotiate with you here."

He Yuzhu smiled and said, "But, to be honest, I think you know the current market situation of fresh meat better than me. Even if it is a hundred kilograms of meat, the price at my place may not be eight hundred yuan, but three or four hundred yuan will definitely sell out quickly. As for cloth coupons? As far as I know, the price has not increased significantly. Although there has been some increase, the increase is still limited. Is my speculation not groundless?"

"After seeing Manager Chen, I felt that you were approachable, otherwise you wouldn't have suggested trading meat. As long as the meat is put on the pigeon market and the market, I can easily exchange it for the clothing funds or cloth coupons and cotton coupons I need. Do you think what I said makes sense?"

Chen Xueru knew that the young man in front of her was not only talented, but also had a good grasp of the key points and was even familiar with the market situation. She found it hard to believe that this person had never been involved in such transactions.

Well, in fact, He Yuzhu really has never conducted large-scale transactions in Xingcheng or Pigeon City, and his only partners are only Zhao Weiguo and Ma Wenrui. However, for Chen Xueru, this may not be clear, which leads to misunderstandings.

"Then how much can you offer?" Chen Xueru asked helplessly.

"In fact, I can find a way to deal with these 100 kilograms of meat, but this is not just a personal matter." He Yuzhu said with a smile, "I would like to get to know Manager Chen. I can give up profit sharing, but it depends on what price Manager Chen can offer."

"Is it really 100 pounds?" Chen Xueru immediately became interested.

"One hand delivers the goods, the other hand pays. What does Manager Chen have to be afraid of?" He Yuzhu understood her worries. "If there is really a conspiracy, I should be the one worried. If you report me from behind, I'm afraid I'll be finished."

"Don't joke!" Chen Xueru waved her hand and refused. "In our industry, reputation is above all else. We must keep our promises. Once the brand is ruined and my reputation is ruined, not only will my business be cut off, but I may not even be able to enjoy the wealth I have earned in my life!"

"Hearing what you said, I feel relieved. Let's talk about the price." He Yuzhu nodded with satisfaction. "By the way, money alone is not enough. You also know that what the countryside really needs is not just money, but a variety of complicated receipts... You know that, right?"

Chen Xueru smiled, but she clearly understood what this meant. "It seems like I have to win this time."

"Let's strive for a win-win situation." He Yuzhu was not shaken.

Although Xingcheng is beautiful, it is not a good idea to marry someone. To live a good life, you still need to rely on honest people like Li Anxin. Of course, if you are beautiful and have a good figure, it will be even better.

At the same time, in the silk shop, Master Qian took Ma Hua and his friends to visit different fabrics and answered their detailed questions about how to choose fabrics suitable for cotton-padded jackets and trousers that are both warm and lightweight.

However, Li Anxin was uneasy and glanced in the direction where He Yuzhu and Chen Xueru left from time to time.

"Don't worry, sister An Xin, my brother has made up his mind about you." He Yushui noticed her uneasiness and quietly pulled her aside, "He did go to discuss important matters, don't worry, it's okay."

"Thank you, Yushui." Li Anxin blushed and nodded shyly.

"No need to thank me, this is our family matter!" He Yushui said with a smile.

Although she said so, the little girl couldn't help but think secretly:

"My brother, you must not be greedy. Manager Chen is indeed a good person, but he doesn't seem to be the type to lead a stable life. It's better for us not to meddle in other people's business."

Not long after, He Yuzhu and Chen Xueru walked out of the office.

"Manager Chen, I'm leaving it to you this time." He Yuzhu said with a smile.

"Why are you still screaming like that?" Chen Xueru squinted her eyes coquettishly.

"Sorry, sorry, it's Sister Xueru." Considering the other person's age, calling her sister is not a disadvantage.

"This is what I want to hear." Chen Xueru nodded sincerely, "Zhu Zi, don't worry, I will solve it for you this time."

"That's it. Let's get in touch later." He Yuzhu nodded with a smile.

When the two men came to He Yushui and others, Master Qian immediately greeted them.

“Manager Chen.”

"How is it going? Have you selected the ingredients?" Chen Xueru asked with a smile.

"I haven't chosen yet." Master Qian shook his head.

"Leave this to me, you can go and receive other guests."

"OK."

After Master Qian left, Chen Xueru stopped paying attention to He Yuzhu and took He Yushui and Li Anxin to look at the fabrics. It must be admitted that some people are born with social skills. Before long, Chen Xueru and He Yushui became close friends, and the atmosphere was warm and pleasant.

"Sister Xueru, you just go ahead and do your thing. I'm going to go smoke a cigarette and take some fresh air." He Yuzhu said with a smile.

"Go ahead, go ahead. You're a man and you don't know how to choose materials. I'll be here." Chen Xueru waved her hand.

"Hua Zi, come with me." He Yuzhu glanced at Ma Hua and then walked out of the silk shop.

"Yes, sir!" Ma Hua hurriedly followed.

The two of them came to the outside of the silk shop. He Yuzhu didn't really smoke, as he had no cigarettes in his pocket. He took out the candies he bought last time, peeled one and put it in his mouth. Although it was a simple fruit hard candy, it tasted unexpectedly delicious.

"After lunch, you will have to run two more errands this afternoon." He Yuzhu glanced at the people on the street and said in a casual tone: "The first time is to bring some things to Uncle Zhao, and the second time is to deliver the goods here."

"Master, what happened with Uncle Zhao is definitely a small matter, but here... do you think it's okay?" Ma Hua still had concerns about Chen Xueru.

Although she was indeed attractive, he knew very well that such a woman was not something he could control, and it would be difficult for ordinary people to grasp her.

"Don't worry, it's no problem." He Yuzhu smiled, "Of course, if you are still worried, I will do it myself, you just need to prepare the bicycle for me."

"No need. I'm still worried about you, Master!" Ma Hua quickly shook his head and refused. "Leave it to me. At least I can have a roast duck meal and it will be worth the trip."

He Yuzhu was very satisfied with his reaction. Yes, this was the assistant in the TV series who dared to confront Deputy Factory Director Li and took the initiative to give pork sausage to Qin Huairu. With such courage, he is indeed trustworthy.

"Don't worry, your hard work won't be in vain. I'll make two winter coats for you, so you can wear them alternately. It's also a token of my appreciation for your cultivation."

“Hey? Is there a share for me?” Ma Hua seemed puzzled.

"Of course, you are one of us!" He Yuzhu glared at him.

"Hehe..." Ma Hua, who was originally planning to reject the other party, was shocked when he heard that he was regarded as "family"

, my heart leaped with joy.

"Stop laughing and be silly. Go back and study cooking skills seriously so that you can become a qualified chef as soon as possible." He Yuzhu patted his shoulder and continued, "The day of promotion will be the day I accept you as my apprentice. Keep working hard!"

"Master, I will definitely be promoted as soon as possible!" Ma Hua was full of energy and decided to go home to increase the time of wok flipping practice to live up to his master's trust.

"I believe you can do it." He Yuzhu nodded, and thought of another thing, "By the way, remember to help me go to Xinhua Bookstore to find some books related to mechanical processing. I forgot to buy them last time."

"As for the used bookstall, there's no need for that. If I have time, I'll go there myself today to see if I can find any useful books."

"Master, tell me what kind of books you want to buy. I know a lot about that place." Seeing the opportunity to help, Ma Hua couldn't wait to say, "I'm familiar with the owner of the used bookstall. Even if the store doesn't have it, I can ask him to look for it. It shouldn't be a problem."

"Okay, you really have a lot of friends."

He Yuzhu said happily that he felt that he had chosen a good apprentice, who was quite capable. "How about this, help me look up some books related to traditional martial arts, whether it's boxing or swordplay."

"By the way, if there are any books on machining at the used book stalls, just buy them there. We need all the materials for turning, fittering and milling. It's not easy for us to make money, so we have to save as much as we can."

He added.

"Master, there is no need to buy these books. Uncle Zhao can help. You can borrow them directly from the factory."

Ma Hua immediately offered a suggestion, "You know, our factory is well-equipped and has a complete library. All workers can borrow books for free."
