Since Guan Jianguo became the brigade's tractor driver, he no longer goes to the city to work. Except for special circumstances, he returns to Huaiyin Brigade every day.
However, the commune often assigns tasks to the tractor team, so he is still very busy every day.
Every morning, I have to send the people from the team to the county franchise store to the county, and pick up people in the afternoon. Today, the commune finally has no tasks, and Zhou Zhigang asked me to send Tan Yuan there again.
Since becoming a tractor driver, the two of them have seen each other frequently and are not at all unfamiliar with each other.
Tan Yuan remembered the last time the police interrogated her and asked Guan Jianguo specifically.
"No one has come to see me since then. It probably has nothing to do with us now. I don't think something like this will happen again."
Guan Jianguo had been on the road to the county countless times. He drove the tractor very steadily and answered Tan Yuan's questions equally steadily.
The last time the police came to see Tan Yuan, she knew something was wrong, but she couldn't tell what exactly was wrong. She couldn't understand why that group of people, who had already escaped, turned themselves in!
It would have been fine if he had just surrendered himself, but he hadn't even given Guan Jianguo away.
She guessed that it must be related to Guan Jianguo, but now seeing that Guan Jianguo was not abnormal and said that such a thing would not happen again in the future, she knew in her heart that he should have solved it.
Without asking any further questions, Tan Yuan nodded, closed her eyes and pretended to take a nap.
Bicycles and pens were both in great demand. Just as Party Secretary Zhou had said, Tan Yuan and Guan Jianguo went to several supply and marketing cooperatives and managed to buy two pens, but there was no sign of a bicycle.
"I'm so sorry. You finally have a day off, but I have to ask you to run around with me."
"What's there to be embarrassed about? This is what I do. There are two supply and marketing cooperatives in the county. Should we continue asking?"
Guan Jianguo was very patient and not impatient at all. Even his tone was exactly the same as usual. He was the tractor driver of the brigade, and it was his duty to send Tan Yuan there.
I've been to several supply and marketing cooperatives, so these two won't make a difference. Of course I have to go and have a look. If I really can't find them, I'll probably have to go to the city tomorrow.
"Of course I want to go."
After receiving the reply, Guan Jianguo started the tractor again without hesitation and drove towards the last two supply and marketing cooperatives.
The remaining supply and marketing cooperatives were on two adjacent streets. There were many pedestrians on the streets, and the tractor was not driving fast. As soon as it arrived at the door of the supply and marketing cooperative, Tan Yuan jumped out of the car and rushed inside without waiting for it to stop.
"Comrade, do we have bicycles and pens for sale here?"
Before anyone saw the shadow, the sound had already appeared in everyone's ears.
These days, the salesmen in the supply and marketing cooperatives receive a fixed salary, but they have many benefits in private. For example, if a piece of cloth has a little defect, it is definitely not possible to sell it as a good product, and it has to be sold at a discount.
But these are all good things, they can easily select the good ones, intercept them privately, and then sell them out.
Or if something good comes along and someone urgently needs it, it's common to collect a small commission and keep it for them.
These are all normal. Things like bicycle watches are really popular. Usually, as long as they are available, they will be snapped up. There will definitely be no one like Tan Yuan who came to queue up without any prior notice or notification.
The salesperson glanced at Tan Yuan, saw the ticket and money in her hand, and shook his head at her: "We don't have any bicycles. They've sold out a long time ago."
The answer was as expected. Disappointment had already appeared countless times, and now there was only a little bit. Since there was no stock, Tan Yuan turned around and left, planning to go to the last store. If there was still no stock, she would have to go to the city.
"Hey, what's wrong with you, comrade? Come back!"
When the salesperson saw that Tan Yuan didn't say a word, he quickly called out to her.
Is it still available? Tan Yuan quickly turned around at the salesperson's beckoning: "Sister, is it still available? Don't worry, if it is, I will definitely..."
She winked at the salesperson. If there was any, she wouldn't mind giving him a little kickback.
It is not easy to become a salesperson these days. Most of them have to come from well-off families, and many of them need connections to become the salesperson. The rewards are also amazing. Tan Yuan understands all these rules, but she went to several stores, and even if she was willing to give benefits, they all said no. So this time Tan Yuan did not do it in vain.
If she could buy it in the county, she would not want to go to the city, so the kickback would be considered as the travel expenses to the city.
In Tan Yuan's slightly excited eyes, the salesperson was like a shrewd person and saw through her thoughts at a glance.
"I have one more pen I can give you. A batch of bicycles arrived last week, and they're all sold out. The next batch won't be available until next week. So please leave me your contact information so I can notify you in advance when they're available."
As for the kickback, if the woman in front of her agrees to her proposal, she will naturally give it to her. She also wants money for making a phone call, right?
It was a sure thing, but Tan Yuan shook her head in disappointment: "Sell the pen to me, I don't need the bicycle anymore, sister."
"Sister, didn't you want to buy a bicycle? Why haven't you used it yet? I see you have your tickets ready. Call me sister, I will never lie to you. There are no bicycles for sale in the entire Changyun County these past two days!"
The salesperson thought about it, looked around and saw that no one noticed her, so she lowered her voice and spoke to Tan Yuan.
"Hey, sister, if you're sincere and want the goods when they arrive, I'll keep them for you in advance. Then you can come and pick them up directly. Just give me 50 cents for my hard work!"
The 50 cents pay is really not high, and doing this job is risky. In the salesperson's opinion, Tan Yuan should be content.
Unexpectedly, Tan Yuan smiled at her, but the words that came out of her mouth were emotionless.
"Sister, there's really no need. It will be too late in a few days. If there's nothing in the county, I'll just go to the city."
It was said to arrive in a few days, but the salesperson himself didn't know when it would arrive.
However, according to the previous rules of the Changyun County Supply and Marketing Cooperative for distributing bicycles, it will probably take more than ten days.
Now that things have come to this, there is no point in saying any more. The salesperson felt sorry that he couldn't earn the fifty cents, but he couldn't say anything more. He had to go to the shelf to find the watch that Tan Yuan wanted.
"Is there anything?"
Guan Jianguo waited outside for a long time, which was much longer than the previous waiting time. He thought that Tan Yuan had bought a bicycle, so he turned off the tractor and walked into the supply and marketing cooperative, intending to come in and help move things.
Hearing the voice, Tan Yuan turned her head and saw Guan Jianguo crossing the threshold. The morning sunlight shining on him looked so soft.
——It turns out this man is quite handsome even when he’s not so sullen…
