Time Travel Article: Tool Man Rejects Plot

After agreeing on a price with Boss Zhou and suggesting "barter", Gu Mingyue asked him to take his men to evacuate first.

Boss Zhou kindly reminded, "Sister Jin, this is a lot of stuff. Do you need me to leave a few people here to help?"

Gu Mingyue waved her hand and said, "No, my brother will be here soon."

Boss Zhou's eyes moved, and he was thinking about the things in this elder sister's hand...

But I also feel that it is better to stay within the boundaries of society in the long run.

So he said, "Then I'm relieved. So, sister, you take care of this first, and I'll go back and prepare the things for the transaction, and try to make sure we're both satisfied."

"I trust Boss Zhou to do things."

Boss Zhou was very pleased with Gu Mingyue's words. He turned around and left without staying any longer.

After everyone has left, Gu Mingyue is in the habit of checking everything again, and only feels completely relieved after confirming that everything is correct.

Looking at the number of these things, there are indeed more and more.

She planned that if there was any spare space after building the house, she would also renovate the toilet.

God knows how big a shadow she was in as she walked on the shaky wooden boards every day and faced the strips of manure in the pit.

The bathroom floor can also be paved with cement, which will make it cleaner and neater.

Noticing the bags of sand and stones nearby, Gu Mingyue looked up to Boss Zhou in her heart.

She had originally planned to find some slabs of stone after building the house and pave a path in the yard so that the yard wouldn't be so muddy on rainy days.

Now that Boss Zhou helped her find these stones, it saved her a lot of effort.

She likes to deal with smart people, saving trouble and achieving mutual benefit.

He waved his hand and put all the things into the space. He decided to take some time tonight to secretly put the things in the new house and let Dandan watch over them.

If her brother asks, just say that her classmate sent someone to deliver it in the middle of the night.

Wearing this outfit, Gu Mingyue went to the supply and marketing cooperative and bought four bottles of Moutai.

I found that some cigarettes did not require tickets, so I bought two packs of Daqianmen and two packs of Dashengchan.

Suddenly she saw a tin can of malted milk on the counter next to her, which she had never drunk before.

I asked the price, and it turned out to be eight yuan, which is really expensive. No wonder they say it is a high-end nutritional product. I'll give me two cans.

At the entrance of the grocery store, there were only a few meat stalls left, with only some pig offal and large bones.

These things are time-consuming, laborious and time-consuming to make, and they also leave a strange smell if not cleaned properly, so they are not popular at the moment.

After asking, I found out that these didn't require meat tickets. That was great, so I bought them all right away.

Finally, she looked at the time and saw that it was still early for the transaction, so she took off her makeup without any hesitation and headed towards the purchasing station.

The doorman was still sitting in his old seat.

Seeing Gu Mingyue, his attitude was still indifferent, but he sat up and greeted her, "Didn't you say you would come over next week?"

Gu Mingyue said with a playful smile, "I am not afraid that you will forget about me. I will come a few more times during these two days when I am free to leave a deep impression on you."

The old man laughed and scolded, "This girl is very sharp-tongued."

The uncle’s surname is Bai and his given name is Zhonghuai. He was originally the owner of a textile factory in the town.

Later, after the public-private merger, he was originally appointed as the factory director.

But Mr. Bai didn't do that. Instead, he found a job as a gatekeeper at a scrap collection station.

I don't have anything to do normally, but when I met this little girl, I found her interesting and I got along well with her.

So I just helped out.

The things were all ready-made and didn't require any effort. I just had to save them for her in advance.

Gu Mingyue had long seen through the old man's tsundere nature. Not to mention, it was quite fun to tease the little old man.

She pointed inside and asked, "Are there any good things today?"

The old man said unhappily, "Who would send good things here? What good things are you thinking?"

Seeing that Gu Mingyue was a little disappointed, he deliberately prolonged his tone and said, "But..."

Gu Mingyue immediately looked over expectantly, "But what?"

The old man snorted arrogantly, "It's better to come at the right time than to come early. There are some. Go in and see for yourself."

She kept muttering in her mind about the old man's mysterious tricks, but that did not stop her from quickly going inside to "hunt for treasure".

Unfortunately, luck doesn’t always come, and leaks don’t always come.

There are a few wooden boxes that look good, and they seem to be a set.

There are four in total, two large and two small. The two large ones are about half a person's height.

The two smaller ones are half the height of the larger one. I can't tell what they are made of, but they are well preserved and look quite new.

Better than nothing.

The big one can be placed on the kang as a kang cabinet, and the small one can be left for the little stone.

Let him learn to tidy up things by himself. Children always yearn for adults' habits, so he will be very happy.

Next to the wooden box, there was a small jewelry box, which was a little dirty.

The patterns carved on it are very delicate. She suddenly had an idea. This is a good thing, a timely rain, so she should take it away.

The boxes were big and small, so Gu Mingyue had to carry them twice before moving all the boxes.

Noticing the old man's gaze, she understood and said, "I think he left it for me."

The old man shook his head and said, "You wish. I just think you came at the right time. Otherwise, this good thing would have been bought by someone else in a short time."

Not wanting to argue with the stubborn old man, Gu Mingyue asked, "This box is quite new, but, sir, can you tell what it is made of?"

She just asked casually, but she didn't expect the old man to know the answer. "This is Huanghuali wood, so you are lucky to have found it."

Gu Mingyue's eyes lit up, and she was puzzled, "How did something like this get here?"

The old man shook his head and sighed, "I am forced by the situation and have no choice."

Perhaps because it involved his troubles, the old man lost interest and stopped arguing with Gu Mingyue.

Taking out some broken bottles he had collected, he pointed to the box and asked, "How do you take these?"

Gu Mingyue also realized that the topic just now was quite sensitive, so she didn't say anything more. "It's okay, someone will pick me up. Lend me the cart in the yard, and I'll deliver these to the entrance of the alley."

Then he asked, "How much are these in total?"

The old man just casually said a number. Gu Mingyue knew that she was taking advantage of him, but she didn't say much and said she would make it up to him later.

Stopping the old man from getting up to help, "That's enough. You don't need your old arms and legs for this little thing. If you keep knocking, no one will help me to scratch things in the future."

The old man angrily retorted, "You are the one with old arms and legs."

"Yes, yes, you are right."

Gu Mingyue's classic quotes from a scumbag successfully made the old man even more suffocated, and he simply ignored this stinky girl.

Until Gu Mingyue brought the cart back, the old man still kept his back to her.

Worried about upsetting the old man, Gu Mingyue took out two liang of Longjing tea that she had packed in advance.

She thought of this when she saw the tea leaves in the teacup next to the old man, so she took some out from the space on the way.

It should be enough for him to drink for a while, but not too much. It should be a steady flow so that he can visit more often in the future.

She put the tea leaves behind the old man and said, "Old man, I'm leaving now. I'll come back next time. Drink a few more cups of what I gave you to calm down. Don't get angry and hurt your body. I won't have anyone to argue with anymore."

Bai Zhonghuai turned around and only had time to see Gu Mingyue running away.

As he moved, the oil paper bag behind him fell to the ground.

He picked it up and smelled it, then raised the corner of his mouth, still not forgetting to say disrespectfully, "I don't know where this stinky girl gets all the nonsense from, she's really poor."

Then open the oil paper bag, pinch out a small handful and put it in the teacup.

I poured some hot water in it and took a sip. Although the little girl was not very serious, her tea leaves were quite good.
