44. Borrow some meat tickets to buy meat and go home

In the afternoon, Luo Chengcheng was going to the station to catch the train back to Longyang Town, and after finding a job, he had to go back and talk to his family. And the people from the personnel department also said yesterday that they should have a few days off, but they can't always stay in their hometown. He also has to come to the city to register in the street, whether it is a dormitory or a place arranged by the street office, Luo Cheng also has to transfer the household registration.

If he has a place to live in the city, Luo Cheng's hukou will move over alone, and then distribute the food book. In the future, Luo Cheng will also become a city man who eats commercial grain.

After the meal, the assessors will leave in the car, and when the work is completed, they will not wander around. In later generations, when I went to other places on business, I had to take the opportunity to go shopping.

"Director, can I ask you something?"

"Engineer Luo, we will all be colleagues in the same unit in the future, don't be polite if you have anything."

"That, factory director, do you have a meat ticket, if you have one, you can lend me some some, I want to buy some meat to take home."

Now Luo Cheng is alone with the factory director Zhang Lin, and the factory director said that he will drive him to the station later, and he doesn't need to walk. If it weren't for the fact that this is an auto repair shop, the number of employees in this factory and the level of the factory director would not be qualified to allocate cars.

And even if there is a car, there is no driver, unlike some units, there are also special driver positions.

Meat stamps are more scarce than food stamps. Ordinary workers can receive meat tickets every month, just two taels. What a concept, less than three pounds a year. During the New Year's holiday, the family always has to eat some meat, make a dumpling or something, there are many people who work at home, it's better, and you can taste it occasionally. If there is only one person in the family who has a job, there are old and young, and they are really reluctant to eat meat. A pound of meat should be stored for several months, and the family can eat as much as they want. Eat all vegetarian for the New Year?

Hearing that Luo Cheng was borrowing a meat ticket, Zhang Lin now knows his family situation, not living in the city, and how difficult it is in the countryside now, he understands. As a sixth-level repairman, he is actually only an intermediate auto mechanic, and the meat ticket of ordinary workers is lowered to two taels a month, and they are also lowered, that is, one tael more, but as the factory director, there is an additional three taels of meat ticket subsidy.

Therefore, Zhang Lin, the director of the factory, has six taels of meat tickets a month, and this bit of meat can be eaten once during the festival. In normal times, like ordinary workers, it is impossible to eat meat all the time.

But Zhang Lin eats less meat in his family, and he actually eats meat often throughout the year. Even if you run once or twice a month, help people repair cars outside, and have the identity of a factory director, the unit always has to entertain a decent meal. And the smaller the unit, the better, because the more important it is to him.

However, there are few small units that can drive a car.

Meat tickets, Zhang Lin has, but it's not much. It is impossible to give it to Luo Cheng in vain, and it will not be deliberately stammered just because Luo Cheng is a seventh-level engineer. admires the other party's ability at most, and he Zhang Lin is also a tough man.

"Two catties of meat tickets are enough, do you need other tickets?"

The director of the factory thought about it and said that he did not have many meat tickets, and he always had to keep some at home. Mainly this is an auto repair shop, and there are many units that deal with it, but most of the units do not interact frequently. If the meat factory's car breaks down, go to repair it, and maybe give them some meat tickets.

Many units deal with each other, and there will also be 'personal exchanges'. It's like a bus station, if Luo Cheng hangs up the work card of the auto repair shop, the fare is a few cents, and people won't charge you at all. Otherwise, if your car breaks down, you will have to repair it for a few days, and you will lose a lot of money at the station.

Two catties of meat tickets will do, and the other tickets will definitely be missing, but those can be taken slowly. What is urgently needed is meat, Luo Cheng wants to get some meat and go back to make up for his grandmother, and the others also eat some meat, and the two younger sisters are really thin and not decent.

Zhang Lin directly advanced two catties of meat tickets to Luo Cheng in the factory, and he took the tickets from home to make up for them tomorrow. The bills on the financial side are all extra spare, like today's hospitality, which is the ingredients bought from the tickets taken from the financial side.

With the ticket, Zhang Lin directly took him to the market to buy a piece of pork belly. Because it's already past noon, there is meat to sell, and it's good to make up for it, and those who are fatter have already been picked up. The pork belly is also not too fatty.

Wrap it in oiled paper, this thing really needs to be put away, and the bag is tight. If you are seen by some bad people in the middle of nowhere, it is really not safe. Some people are hungry, and the rice is eaten raw, and the same is true of the meat. When I take it home, I have to close the door and cook it secretly at night.

The factory director sent Luo Cheng to the station, not to mention, basically the drivers knew him. The shuttle bus to Longyang Town is still there, and it will take a lot of time to leave, and the factory director brushes his face, Luo Cheng can take a free car this time. In fact, his work proves that he is now deliberately shown to people, and it can be free, but for the sake of two dimes, it is a bit of a shame to deliberately do that.

In case people don't give face, they have to give money, how embarrassing it is.

After sending Luo Cheng to the bus, the factory director left, Luo Cheng waited in the car for more than half an hour before the car started, there were not many passengers on the car, and there were only about a dozen people in total. There are different places to get off, but no matter how you calculate it, the fare of this trip is only two or three yuan.

It's two or three yuan a trip, this labor plus loss, Luo Cheng doubts if he can make money, and he doesn't know the oil price in this era. I only know that before the times changed, a liter of gasoline was more than seven yuan.

However, Luo Cheng is not boring this time, probably knowing that he is from an auto repair shop, and the driver has been chatting with him enthusiastically. Luo Cheng also asked about the price of gasoline this year.

A liter of diesel costs seven cents, and a liter of gasoline costs nine cents. Gas is really cheap, but you need a petrol or diesel ticket to refuel. However, this is not a necessity for many people, and too few individuals own a car. Therefore, if you don't have a ticket, you can get a unit certificate to refuel.

For example, when the peasants in the brigade are busy with tractors, they need to go to the county-level unit to approve the refueling documents, and then bring a large barrel to pull the oil over.

To buy gasoline and diesel, you also look for supply and marketing cooperatives, not gas stations, and a large barrel of diesel gasoline is specially found to find a place to store it. If someone wants to buy it, they send someone to bring it. This is also to facilitate the use of some towns and towns, and it is unrealistic to set up a gas station in each place, but basically every place has a demand.

After chatting with this driver, I will be familiar with it, and the person who runs this station line is generally him running, and someone will take the shift when he breaks occasionally. And Luo Cheng has been in his car a few times in the past few days, but he didn't know that Luo Cheng was from an auto repair shop, so he didn't say hello.

The driver didn't say it, Luo Cheng actually guessed that this car might be the one who ran this route, and he had sat a few times, and he was familiar with this car. And there is also the conductor who gave him the ticket last time.

Now that the two know each other, they also know each other's names, and the driver's name is Zhao Dajin. said that in the future, as long as he is still running this line, Luo Cheng will take the car to Ngee Ann City and get on the bus casually. Don't be polite, if they have a problem with the car in the future, they will need him to help when the time comes.

Zhao Dajin's proposal, Luo Cheng did not refuse, not to save more than two dimes in travel expenses. The main reason is that his hometown is in Longyang Town, and he will participate in the work in the future, so it is not good to come back often, if he is familiar with this driver Zhao Dajin. It's not very convenient to ask him to help bring something home when he is passing by.

Zhao Dajin used the public ticket fee income as a favor, but he was not entirely for himself. The car broke down, and he didn't need to pay for it, he just wanted it to be convenient in the future. Running this route all year round, I know a lot of people, and occasionally bring goods, and people are embarrassed.

So he is also worried that when there is a problem with the car, he can repair it as soon as possible without delaying him to make some extra money. Today, there are a few things in the car that help people.
