Siheyuan: Originally I just wanted to be a little transparent

Chapter 54 Be Prepared
After a while, Lin Shengli came back pushing his bicycle. The bicycle was also carrying a lot of potatoes, cabbage, radishes, some grains, and two pieces of meat hanging on the handlebars.

There is only so much on the surface, but secretly, he puts even more in his space.

Originally, Lin Shengli's return home from get off work should be about the same time as Mr. Yi and the others.

But when he was halfway through the supply and marketing cooperative, he saw many people queuing up. Lin Shengli asked about it and found that everyone was stocking up on food and vegetables.

After all, there are still many smart people.

This sudden drop in temperature is especially followed by the cold winter.

All kinds of materials will increase in price. Not only will the prices increase, but with the arrival of winter, the supply of various materials will become even tighter.

It's not the depth of winter yet, so don't stock up on things. When supplies are in short supply, you won't be able to buy much even if you have money.

After going around the supply and marketing cooperative, I found that the prices of many things have increased and are a bit more expensive than before.

Lin Shengli thought for a while. Although he still had a lot of things in his space, there was no harm in stocking up on more.

Another thing is that it is only the beginning of November, and there are still many kinds of vegetables available in these four-nine cities.

After a while, there may only be some cabbage, potatoes, radishes and the like left.

So Lin Shengli started the purchase mode, and swept up everything that could be found in the supply and marketing cooperative, mainly rice, flour, oil, sugar, and some non-staple food seasonings.

After sweeping through the supply and marketing cooperative, Lin Shengli went to the nearby vegetable market.

He bought some green leafy vegetables that could be seen in the market, such as cucumbers, tomatoes, green peppers, etc. He also bought some meat and eggs.

He didn't buy too much, it was just enough for him to eat for a month or two.

In order not to attract attention, he visited a few more stalls and markets. Although he bought a lot from each stall, he didn't attract any big attention.

After all, since the sudden drop in temperature, some people have started hoarding supplies, and an old man came pulling a cart, which seemed to be much more than what Lin Shengli had bought.

After loading most of the things into the space and taking out some of the symbolic items on the bicycle and carrying them on the bicycle, he pushed the bicycle home with satisfaction.

Lin Shengli decided that every day he passed by the supply and marketing cooperative or the market, he would buy a few things and save them. Mainly, he would buy some vegetables, meat and eggs every day. The accumulated little would add up to a rainy day.

When he arrived at his door, Lin Shengli found that there were many people in the yard, muttering and talking about something.

When Lin Shengli just entered the gate, someone went to the first uncle's house to tell the first uncle and the third uncle the news of Lin Shengli's return.

The first uncle and the third uncle were also standing in the backyard at this time.

Seeing Lin Shengli's large and small bags, the third uncle asked: "Shengli is back. You have bought so many things. Do you want to stock up on supplies for the winter? Isn't it a little early?"

"Third uncle, it's getting late. Didn't you see the people in the supply and marketing cooperatives and the market today? They are overcrowded and everyone is starting to rush to buy."

"I heard that the cold winter this year is earlier than in previous years. Now the prices of many supplies have increased. Things may become more expensive in the future. I advise you to make preparations as soon as possible."

Lin Shengli heard the news from the supply and marketing cooperative and the vegetable market about the early arrival of winter, and told the third uncle and everyone in the courtyard.

Lin Shengli did it easily when he was able to give everyone some advice.

He has already said what he said, and whether everyone believes it or not is none of his business.

After all, it’s hard to persuade a damn devil with words, so if you don’t believe it, I won’t do anything to you.Hearing Lin Shengli say that many supplies would increase in price, everyone in the courtyard started talking again.

"My family has to buy something in advance. I don't know how much it will cost in a few days."

"Hey, sister-in-law, my family also needs to store some food for the winter. Let's go together tomorrow."

"Why did it get cold so early this winter? The coal stamps and winter supplies haven't been distributed yet. What can we do?"

…………

After hearing what Lin Shengli said, combined with the opinions of several people who came to the house just now.

The old man felt that winter would come early this year, and he would have to find time to stock up on supplies for the winter.

After listening to Lin Shengli's statement, the third uncle also thought thoughtfully that he would have to go home for a meeting later, and he would have to exchange all the food stamps at home for food and save them in advance.

Lin Shengli looked at the large group of people surrounding his door. He looked at the third uncle in confusion and said, "Third uncle, why are so many people in our courtyard surrounding my door?"

The third uncle said nothing and looked at the first uncle, who then said:
"Shengli, haven't I heard that you have installed that heater? We are all very curious and want to come to your house to see how effective the heater is. Is that okay?"

After hearing what the first uncle said, Lin Shengli glanced at the third uncle.

Needless to say, it goes without saying that it was the third uncle who spread the word to him. After all, apart from himself, only the third uncle in this yard had personally experienced the feeling of heating.

But Lin Shengli didn't care, he just came to see if there was anything like this. These things came from the open road, and it's not like he couldn't meet people.

However, Lin Shengli took a look at the large group of people surrounding the yard. It would be troublesome if they all rushed into the house.

After thinking about it, Lin Shengli said to the uncle: "Master, there is nothing wrong with this, but it is not good for so many people to enter the house at once."

"One more thing, you can visit, but you have to be careful and don't squeeze in anything in the house."

Hearing that Lin Shengli allowed everyone to visit, the uncle's heart finally calmed down.

He was really afraid that in front of so many people, if Lin Shengli didn't give him face, he wouldn't be able to get off the stage. After that, if Lin Shengli quoted scriptures and used the moral high ground to beat him up, then he could really die on the spot. .

But fortunately, this Lin Shengli is still very face-saving.

The old man received a satisfactory reply and said with a smile: "Don't worry, Shengli. We can't all crowd in. I will have everyone line up and come one by one."

"Also, don't worry, I will keep an eye on it and make sure no one breaks anything in your house."

Now that Lin Shengli had given him face, the First Master reciprocated the favor and took the initiative to take on the role of supervising everyone.

Lin Shengli parked his bicycle, unloaded the supplies on the car, and opened the door of his house with his foot while holding a large sack in one hand.

Following behind was the third uncle who helped Lin Shengli get something.

The grandpa was giving orders at the door to organize everyone to line up: "Those who want to visit, come and line up. Don't be crowded. Come one by one and line up."

"Also, when you enter the house, be honest and don't make a mess in the house."
