Rebirth of the era of struggle

An old man came over with a frame on his back, and beside him was a strong young man, carrying a snakeskin bag bulging with chestnuts.

The old man gave Liu Dajiang a cigarette.

Liu Dajiang took the cigarette with a smile, and said, "It's from Zhangzhuang, I still remember you...how many catties today."

"120 catties..."

The old man put the frame down.

Liu Dajiang hung the cigarette on his ear, and pawed and tugged inside the frame a few times with his hands.

Although it is an agricultural product, it must also be responsible to the buyer. The rotten, small, and immature ones will be picked out...

"Today I picked it out on purpose, and I didn't pretend to be the unqualified ones."

The old man said with a smile.

He also came here yesterday, but he wasn't sure if he was collecting chestnuts, so he brought a little less, and he took out most of the stock at home today.

Liu Dajiang checked a few times, picked out two rotten ones and threw them aside, the others were good and in good condition.

Then put it on the scale and weigh it.

Liu Dajiang said: "A total of 120 catties, I will calculate the price."

The old man sighed, "Your name is really accurate."

Before going out, he and his son weighed it once, and it weighed more than 120 catties, but before leaving, they grabbed two more and added the ones that were picked out, and there were still 120 catties, which can be said to be no less.

Those peddlers collect chestnuts, and they are often short of catties. In comparison, this place is too conscientious.

While counting the change, Liu Dajiang said with a smile: "We are not engaged in reselling, what are you doing to lie to you, the main reason is to help our fellow villagers, do you think our boss makes money? No, we buy it for [-] catties at your price. We take it back and sell it online for less than two yuan per catty, including loss, labor and express delivery, and we have to lose a few cents per catty of chestnuts, but it doesn’t matter, our boss has money and doesn’t care about it.”

"Your boss is really a kind person. Those hawkers are too dark. They want to buy it for only a few cents a catty. I'd rather let it go bad than give it to them..."

"Yeah, when I went back yesterday, people said that chestnuts are collected here, one yuan and five catties. I thought it was a lie, and I almost scolded that guy, but I didn't expect it to be true... Please let me eat it when I go back. Paused."

"There are still a lot of trees in my house. I will shoot them all down when I go back today, and send them to you. How many days will you take?"

There was a lot of discussion around.

Mostly praise and compliments.

Liu Dajiang has always been flattered.

However, he has experienced ups and downs, and he has a good mentality. He didn't get flustered because of a little bragging. He said: "Don't worry, as long as the chestnut is qualified, we will buy it in the next one or two months. You don't have to worry. The price It won't change..."

get this answer.

Everyone took a reassurance.

Two months is enough time, no matter how many chestnuts there are on the mountain, it is enough time to harvest all of them and peel them off.

Liu Dajiang handed the money to the old man, and said: "After you go back, help us publicize it. If you are far away, try to find a car to bring it here. We are short of manpower now, so we can't go down and collect it. Some people don't know it. You all help to say it." Now, don't let the folks get tricked by the peddlers."

"Boss Liu, don't worry, I will definitely explain it to you."

"I'll tell the others when I get back."

……

not far away.

in a car.

Guan Jianguo and another man wearing glasses were sitting in the car, both watching the situation here.

"Old Guan, you have solved a big problem for the folks, thank you..."

said the man with glasses.

Guan Jianguo smiled and said, "Old Tan, what are you talking about, this is our job."

"Old Guan, many people have been asking me about your son-in-law recently, but I've kept my mouth shut and no one has said anything... Hurry up, at the wedding banquet, you should have a few more drinks with me."

Old Tan said with a smile.

The relationship between the two is good.

Lao Tan is also in charge of information, and knows that Guan Jianguo's son-in-law is the young billionaire in Qingshan County.

Guan Jianguo nodded: "That is necessary, just let him drink with you."

Chapter 412 Aunt Xiaojuan

In a blink of an eye, the [-]th holiday has passed.

The school returned to its former vitality.

Lu Yang also came to Greentown Second People's Hospital.

After a few days of recuperation, the swelling in Manzi's knee finally subsided, and the doctor arranged for an operation immediately. The little grandpa didn't see anyone from time to time, and Qian Xiaojuan was a woman who couldn't take care of her. On the day of the operation, Lu Yang also came to help .

outside the operating room.

The two sat on chairs.

Qian Xiaojuan looked nervous, looking at the closed door of the operating room from time to time, her fingers on her trousers trembled slightly... It was obvious that she was very worried about her younger brother.

"Auntie Xiaojuan, don't worry... Manzi, this is a minor operation, so there won't be any problems."

Lu Yang comforted him.

Qian Xiaojuan is an out-and-out rural person.

I can't distinguish the degree of danger of surgery, and I feel that entering the operating room is very dangerous.

"I...I'm fine..."

Qian Xiaojuan said.

Qian Xiaojuan is five or six years older than Manzi, and they played together when they were young, but at that time Qian Xiaojuan was more honest, more like the role of an intimate big sister.

Lu Yang chatted with her to ease her nervousness.

"Auntie Xiaojuan, what are you doing in your hometown now?"

Qian Xiaojuan said: "Before I didn't go to work, I just did farm work... I used to take care of my children, but now the children go to school early. My daughter went to kindergarten, and I also found a job."

"Oh, where's my uncle?"

Lu Yang knew that Qian Xiaojuan married early, and her husband was also from the countryside.

Qian Xiaojuan said: "He followed the people in the county and went abroad to work, and the whole family has not returned home. He said that he signed a contract for three years, and it will take more than a year before he can come back."

Speaking of her husband, Qian Xiaojuan's face softened a little. .

He said: "He also works very hard outside, and the money he earns every year will be sent home..."

"Oh, that was hard work."

Lu Yang was not surprised to hear that Qian Xiaojuan's husband had gone abroad.

Over the past few years, it has become popular to go abroad to work. Many people in remote areas will go out with an intermediary with their passports and visas. Of course, it is not the kind of telecom fraud and pig-killing that can often be seen on the Internet in the future. It is a real part-time job... Mainly in Singapore and Africa, although the wages are not particularly high, they are much better than domestic factories.

Of course, the disadvantages are also obvious. It’s too far away, and it’s easy to go home. Once the contract is signed, it will last for several years. If you can’t finish it, the deposit will not be refunded.And outside, the living environment is different from that in China. Some people are not acclimated to the environment, or get seriously ill, and may stay outside forever.

"No way, his parents gave birth to him late, and he was the only boy. Now the old couple are over 60, and they have no place to go out to work. They can only help others in their hometown. My mother-in-law is at home. Help me take care of the children, the whole family has to rely on him to support."

Qian Xiaojuan told all about her family.

Lu Yang asked: "Aunt Xiaojuan, you just said that you also found a job, is it in your hometown? What do you do?"

"There's no good job. I'm helping out in a restaurant, and I'm just doing the cleaning... Helping with the selection and washing of vegetables... It costs 500 yuan a month."

Qian Xiaojuan said with some embarrassment.

After all, this job is not decent, and the earning is really a little bit less.

"No wonder your hands are cracked in many places."

Lu Yang noticed just now that Qian Xiaojuan's hands had many cracks, probably caused by soaking in water for a long time.

Of course Lu Yang knew about the restaurant work.

I work hard every day and still can't make much money, so I might as well go out and be a waiter.

After thinking for a while, Lu Yang said: "I remember when I was young, you often helped the barbarians mend clothes. Don't you know how to use a sewing machine? Why don't you go to Hengyuan Garment Factory to try it out? The salary there is high, and they are still recruiting people recently. , need a lot of workers..."

bring this up.

Qian Xiaojuan smiled and said: "Xiaoyang, you think highly of me too much. With my little craftsmanship, it's okay to help me sew a patch. I can't make that kind of clothes. Besides, Hengyuan is very demanding. Gao, I'm going, it's my fault if they don't kick me out."

"That's not necessarily true." Lu Yang smiled: "You are still young, you know how to learn, and you still have the foundation, don't be afraid of anything, why don't you try it, and you will lose a piece of meat."

Seeing Qian Xiaojuan's disapproval, Lu Yang went on to say: "Auntie Xiaojuan, working in a restaurant has no future. If you break your body, you can't make much money. You can go to a garment factory and learn how to eat. You won’t have to worry about finding a job wherever you go in the future... Go try it out, I have a friend who works in Hengyuan Garment Factory, let me tell him, you should be able to get in in the past.”

"Really?"

Qian Xiaojuan couldn't believe it.

Although Lu Yang is a college student, how could he know the manager in Hengyuan Garment Factory.

"Of course it's true." Lu Yang smiled and said, "If you don't believe me, you can go back and find out. His name is Liu Dajiang. Anyway, the opportunity has already been given to you. If you don't seize it, I can't help it. ..."

Qian Xiaojuan was skeptical, but she had already taken this matter to heart.

If you can work in Hengyuan Garment Factory, it will be more decent than it is now, and the money you earn in a month will be several times higher than it is now. When it stabilizes, a year later, when the family member comes back, you can't continue I went abroad to work.

If it wasn't for the needs of life, who wouldn't want to have a family reunion?

The operation lasted about two hours.

During this period, the little grandpa never showed up.

Qian Xiaojuan made two phone calls, but no one answered...

Lu Yang was also helpless.

My son didn't even show up for the operation, which is really enough to be a father. I really don't know why he came to Greentown!

West of the city.

A construction site.

The workers who were supposed to be working nearby all stopped, gathered under a hanging tower, and whispered...

Someone looked up and saw a little old man sitting on the hanging tower, about ten meters above the ground.

After a while.

Several leaders with white hats came over.

"Qian Changfu, come down quickly...Didn't I just say that when your son is discharged from the hospital, how much should we pay? How much will we reimburse you? What are you doing..."

Someone shouted at the people on the hanging tower.

Qian Changfu looked at the following and was unmoved. He said, "Why should I believe your words? What if my son recovers and you renege on the debt? You bosses are very bad... I just asked , you just want to delay not paying the money, I have to get the money today... If I don't give the money, I will jump from here..."

He said it harshly, but if he was more careful, he would find that Qian Changfu's hand was firmly grasping the railing next to him.

"What's the matter, come down and talk about it, we are not lying to you, we will be responsible for work-related injuries...you come down first."

"No, if you don't give it to me, I won't come down."

The following people discussed it, and the other one said: "Qian Changfu, tell me how much it is, let's prepare."

"One hundred thousand, at least one hundred thousand... 10 yuan to buy my son's leg, you have made a lot of money."

Qian Changfu said loudly.

The onlookers all had strange expressions. It sounds strange to hear this...

"You come down first, I will prepare the money now..."

"No, I have to see the money to come down!"

Chapter 413

"The operation was successful, there should be no problem..."

After more than two hours of surgery, Man Zicong was finally pushed out of the operating room.

"Thank you doctor, thank you doctor..."
