Chu Xinyan almost screamed out in surprise when Li Youcai pulled her.

Worried about waking up the sleeping Duoduo.

Chu Xinyan covered her mouth.

Li Youcai couldn't wait to pull down the light cord, and the room instantly became pitch black.

"Don't do that. The basin hasn't been taken out yet."

"No more!"

Li Youcai hugged Chu Xinyan and covered his head with the quilt...

That night, Li Youcai had a dream.

He dreamed that he became the father of five children. A group of little kids in diapers chased him and called him daddy. One of them rode on his neck and pulled his hair. Two of them held his legs and swung on them. Another two held his arms and tried to climb up.

The call of "Dad" was like the tight-fitting curse of Tang Monk, giving him a splitting headache.

Huh~~!

Li Youcai woke up in shock.

It was already bright outside, and the sound of a spatula rubbing against the bottom of a pot could be heard from the kitchen.

Duoduo squatted beside Li Youcai's head and was fiddling with his hair.

"Dad, my big white rabbit fell off and is on your head. I can't take it off." Duoduo said a little aggrievedly when she saw Li Youcai woke up.

Li Youcai reached out and touched his head, and found that the candy was stuck to his hair, making it sticky.

No wonder I dreamed of having my hair pulled. It turned out to be the work of Duoduo, the culprit.

"Duoduo, if you eat candy in the morning, all your teeth will fall out. You can't eat candy in the morning from now on, do you understand?" Li Youcai lifted the quilt, got up and started to get dressed.

"I didn't eat it, I just licked it."

The dilapidated little earthen house had only one room and a kang.

Think about how Chu Xinyan covered her mouth and tried hard not to make any sound last night.

Li Youcai felt that building a house must be put on the agenda.

Build it in early spring!

Fold the quilt.

The kang was warm and felt very comfortable on my feet.

Chu Xinyan walked in with the hot dishes.

"You're up now, it's a good time to wash your face and have dinner."

"What happened to your hair?"

There was a piece of candy wrapped in Li Youcai's hair, making it messy like a chicken coop.

"It's okay, boil some hot water for me and I'll take a shower."

Had breakfast.

Li Youcai changed into a suit and rushed to the county town.

I made an appointment with Director Wei yesterday. Today they will send someone to take him to visit the old factory.

When Li Youcai arrived at Beiwei Fandai, a man was already waiting for him in the store.

"Hello, Comrade Li. I'm Su Qiang from the flour mill. The director specifically asked me to show you around the old factory."

"Thank you, Comrade Su."

"You're welcome. Let's go over there now."

Li Youcai followed Su Qiang to the old factory building opposite the hotel.

Su Qiang used the key to open the heavy iron gate of the old factory.

Looking around, the entire flour mill is a square courtyard with a factory building similar to a large warehouse around it and a large open space in the middle.

Because it has been abandoned for several years, many places are overgrown with weeds, looking dilapidated.

Li Youcai turned around and looked around.

Overall, this place is similar to what he remembered from his previous life.

It’s just that the factory building that is rotating has not been renovated yet.

With a little planning, this vacant land can be turned into rows of open-air stalls.

"Comrade Su, let's go take a look at the factory."

There is nothing much to see in the compound, the main thing is inside the factory.

If the internal structure of the factory is complex, then the renovation will not only be time-consuming and labor-intensive, but the cost of renovation will also be a problem.

"No problem, let's go this way." Su Qiang took Li Youcai into the nearest factory building.

"This used to be the flour milling workshop. The equipment has been moved away, but now it has electricity and water. The door at the back is the feed inlet, which connects to the filling workshop at the back. It's about the same size as this one, both around 500 square meters. Behind the filling workshop is the storage workshop, which is a bit bigger."

Su Qiang introduced the structure of the factory to Li Youcai.

He reached into his pocket and pulled out a box of Pegasus cigarettes worth 25 cents, took out two cigarettes, and handed them to Li Youcai.

Li Youcai didn't hesitate to take it and started smoking with Susie.

At this time, Pegasus did not have a filter, and the cigarette kept falling into pieces when held in the mouth.

It's also very strong when smoked.

Inside the empty factory, there was nothing but dust. There were several pits on the ground, probably the foundation trenches used to hold the milling equipment.

There is a row of glass windows above the wall, which are used for ventilation and lighting. There are only a few pieces of good glass left, and the wind blows in.

The situation in the factory was much better than Li Youcai had imagined.

No complex internal structure.

You just need to build partition walls along the walls on both sides to divide the space into several stalls.

A row of factory buildings is divided into three large workshops, each of which has a large space.

"Very good." Li Youcai nodded.

I visited all the factories one by one.

Li Youcai is very satisfied with this place.

After visiting the old factory, it was almost 11 o'clock.

Li Youcai wanted to treat Su Qiang to a meal, as it would be bad to ask him to take him around for nothing.

"Thank you, Comrade Su, for taking the time to explain this to me. I think it's almost time. Let's go across the street and have a quick meal."

Su Qiang refused with a smile.

"You're welcome. This is all work assigned by the factory director. I have to rush back to the factory to report to him, so I'll be leaving now."

Seeing this, Li Youcai took out two boxes of ginseng cigarettes produced in Chuncheng and stuffed them into Su Qiang's pockets.

Ginseng cigarettes are priced at two yuan a cigarette, the same as Zhonghua cigarettes. In the minds of many smokers, they are considered a low-key show-off, with a status no less than that of Zhonghua cigarettes.

"Take this and smoke it."

"Comrade Li, you are too polite." Su Qiang spread out his palm and did not take it.

"This cigarette was given to me by someone else. I seldom smoke, so it would be a waste for me. You can take it and smoke it." Li Youcai pushed it into Su Qiang's hand again.

This time Su Qiang did not refuse and happily put the two packs of ginseng cigarettes into his pocket.

He smiled and said, "Then I won't be polite."

Li Youcai gave cigarettes not to bribe anyone.

But it's his personal social habits.

Li Youcai, who worked his way up from a peddler, knows what it feels like to be looked down upon. He also understands that small people can sometimes play a big role.

Do some small favors to make the other person remember you well, and invisibly expand your network, which may be useful again someday.

After seeing Su Qiang off, Li Youcai came to the aquatic products company and waited for his father Li Guanghu.

At this time, the aquatic products company, under the operation of Wang Changlin, has added more than a dozen types of fish products.

Some fish that are often heard of but are not common are now on the shelves.

Seeing these changes, Li Youcai knew that it would not be long before Wang Changlin would take another step forward and become the manager of the aquatic products company.

On the tag, the salmon, which was more than half a meter long and more than a palm wide, was priced at one yuan and twenty cents per pound.

It is much cheaper than the more than 40 yuan per pound in the previous life.

"Hello, comrade. Please weigh two large salmon for me and pack them separately."

"okay."

Two salmon, weighing a total of 32 pounds.

Ding ding dang dang, as the time approached, Li Guanghu drove a mule cart to the aquatic products company.

There are fewer forest frogs and crayfish today than yesterday. After weighing, they only sold for 987 yuan in total, which is less than yuan.

The father and son drove a mule cart and bought some things at the supply and marketing cooperative.

On the mule cart, a half-meter-long salmon was in a tin barrel, with a large section of it sticking out.

Li Guanghu smelled the fishy smell and drove the mule cart.

The father and son soon returned to the Dongsheng Brigade.

When passing by the home of Party Secretary Wang Jingui, Li Youcai stopped the mule cart.

He jumped off the carriage carrying a salmon and two bottles of Red Star Erguotou.

"Dad, you go back first. I'm going to Secretary Wang's house."

"Are you taking these to give to Wang Jingui?" Li Guanghu asked.

Two bottles of wine and a fish, this costs more than 20 yuan.

"Well, I went to ask him to do something. I'll tell you in detail when I get home." Li Youcai carried the things and walked quickly into the gate of Wang Jingui's house.

Li Guanghu looked around and felt relieved when he saw that there was no one on the road.

"Don't give gifts without telling anyone."
