Chapter 280 You Can’t Test Me Like This

"By the way, do you have time this weekend? Can you accompany me to the Cultural Palace?"

"The Cultural Palace? Are you going to dance?"

Jiang Bo asked.

It was only after Jiang Bo traveled here that he realized that this era was actually quite different from what he had imagined.

Group dancing is actually an indispensable part of people’s cultural life, and even the military is no exception.

Every weekend or holiday, the government offices, schools, and factories in the northern city hold dances.

However, after another four or five years, dance activities will be regarded as "feudal, capitalist, and revisionist", and the government will issue a civilized order to ban them, and dances will be put on hold from then on.

"Richard asked me to go."

Chen Xueru put her hands on the counter and said in a soft voice:

"But I don't want to go with him. I want to go with you."

Jiang Bo swallowed his saliva and thought:

No matter how strong my will is, you can't keep testing me like this...

"I have something to do this weekend, so I can't go with you."

He and Ye Xiaoyun were newlyweds, and he didn't want to ruin his reputation because of this.

not worth it.

"OK then."

Chen Xueru said disappointedly.

After leaving Xueru Silk Shop, Jiang Bo immediately put the bag in his hand into the space.

The clothes in the bag were the Victoria's Secret styles he had customized for Ye Xiaoyun. It would be a real hassle if someone accidentally saw them.

Jiang Bo hired a tricycle and went to the grain store and vegetable store to buy some food.

Then he rode his bike to the West City Branch.

When no one was paying attention, with every few steps he took, there were more things on the tricycle.

Soon, the cart was filled with meat, vegetables and grain.

logistics department.

Xiao Li, who was in charge of the inventory, was no longer surprised to see Jiang Bo pulling over a truck full of supplies.

Without saying a word, he called for people to help unload the goods.

Then the grain is weighed bag by bag and stored.

"Five hundred kilograms in total."

"This month's procurement task has been exceeded again."

"One hundred and sixty-five pounds of pork."

"Chief Jiang, you are amazing. We can still get pork in this year."

Jiang Bo smiled without saying anything and handed Xiao Li a cigarette.

Xiao Li took the cigarette but didn't smoke it. He put it between his ears and held it there.

He was a chatterbox and started chatting with Jiang Bo enthusiastically.

"Chief Jiang, I heard on the news that this autumn's grain harvest is very good."

"Will life be better in winter?"

Jiang Bo was silent.

Coming from the future, he certainly knew that the coming year would be even more difficult.

It will take at least until the second year for some relief to come.

However, people are now infected by the belief that they will soon have a good harvest and have survived the hardships. Jiang Bo is powerless and unwilling to break this hope.

"It's hard to say."

"I think we should stock up on more food now if we can."

“It’s hard to say what happens next.”

Xiao Li was stunned.

"That's right, that's right."

Xiao Li echoed.

Jiang Bo has done a lot of big things recently. Although he is very young, he has a high prestige in the branch.

Xiao Li said this out of respect for him.

But deep down, he didn't quite agree with Jiang Bo's idea.

He still felt that the current difficulties would soon pass and dawn would come soon.

Jiang Bo also noticed it.

He said nothing more.

no way.

People always tend to believe what they want to believe.

After get off work in the evening, Jiang Bo did not go directly to return the car, but rode the tricycle back to the courtyard first.

Yan Bugui was watering the flowers in his yard.

Seeing Jiang Bo coming back with a cart full of grain, he was so surprised that he almost dropped the spray bottle in his hand.

"Jiang Bo, you brought back so many things."

"What is this? Is it food?"

Jiang Bo pushed the tricycle towards his door and agreed:

"Correct."

"After purchasing for the institute, I still have some surplus, so I just bring some back and store some food for my family."

"You're back pretty early, Teacher Yan."

Yan Bugui smiled with wrinkles all over his face and said:

"You're early too."

Yan Bugui never leaves work on time.

As soon as he finished his last class, no matter when that was, he was gone.

Either he goes fishing in the wild, or he goes home to tinker with the flowers and plants and keep an eye on what's going on in the yard.

He knew exactly who bought a cabbage or carried a bag of potatoes.

If he met someone who was eager to give him two potatoes and an onion, he would feel that he had made a great profit.

Even after becoming the boss of the yard, he still couldn't change this bad habit.

Yang Ruihua came out with a rag and said:

"Jiang Bo, why are you buying so much food?"

“How expensive is food now?”

"The autumn harvest will come soon, and the price of grain will drop. Wouldn't it be a loss if you buy so much now?"

Jiang Bo said:

"My family has more people now, so I have to prepare more."

Then he didn't say anything more.

Even if I said it, no one would believe it.

He just needs to take care of himself.

Yan Bugui came into the house carrying a spray bottle, and Yang Ruihua whispered to him:

"You said, Jiang Bo usually looks like a smart person, how could he do such a stupid thing?"

"Even if you have money, you can't build it like this, right?"

"His wife doesn't care about him either."

Yan Bugui slowly placed the spray bottle on the windowsill, thought for a while, and said:

"Mother, let's go buy some food and store it."

Yang Ruihua was extremely puzzled:

"Buying food now? Are you crazy?"

Yan Bugui shook his head and said:

"You just said it, Jiang Bo is not stupid."

"He has many connections and knows a lot. He must have heard something, so he is hoarding food."

Yang Ruihua murmured:

"Do you really want to buy it?"

"My family is not as well-off as Jiang Bo and his family. We only have this much surplus. If we lose money..."

Yan Bugui was also very conflicted.

He closed his eyes and thought for a long time. Finally, he made up his mind, opened his eyes suddenly, and said:

"purchase!"

“But don’t buy too much.”

Just as Yang Ruihua said, if the grain really belonged to the Jiang family after the autumn harvest, the losses here and outside would be enough to kill Yan Bugui.

"Oh, okay then."

Yang Ruihua said helplessly.

She felt that Jiang Bo and her old man must be crazy.

They will regret it then.

Jiang Bo lives a comfortable life and doesn't care.

By then, their family will be in great trouble.

She could imagine that Yan Bugui would be so sleepless that he wouldn't be able to sleep for a month.

Because it hurts.

On the Jiang family's side.

Jiang Bo put all the food into the inner room, poured some water into the basin and washed his hands.

Then I saw my mother-in-law hesitating.

"Mom, what's wrong with you?"

Bai Wei looked like something was wrong.

"Xiao Jiang, I have something to tell you."

"Go ahead, take your time."

Next, Bai Wei told Jiang Bo about Qin Huairu's story.

"Qin Huairu is going to take over at the steel mill?"

Jiang Bo smiled.

I guess this was done by Yi Zhonghai.

Jiang Bo knew Yi Zhonghai's true face. On the surface, he was nice to everyone in the courtyard, especially the Jia family, and it seemed that he was doing his best.

But his kindness is conditional.

Yi Zhonghai will only be nice to the other person if the other person is valuable to him.
