Send me to the countryside? Turn around and make you homeless!

Guan Jianguo looked so honest that even Lin Guoan and others couldn't see any clues from his face.

Thinking about what Tan Yuan said, the brigade will have to get a few more tractors sooner or later. With the current momentum in the factory, it seems that it will not be difficult to get a few tractors in the future.

Thinking of this, he didn't say anything and let Guan Jianguo take the time to teach the young men in the brigade how to drive a tractor.

"Remember to ask your Uncle Zhang to reimburse you for the diesel money when the time comes."

The current Huaiyin Brigade is no longer what it used to be, but even the small gas money can be afforded. Besides, Guan Jianguo is doing this for the brigade, so there is no reason for him to spend his own money.

Guan Jianguo is no longer the same person he was before. He took over the black market business, which means he took over the secret connections. He made a lot of money from the batch of goods he brought back from the city. Of course, Boss Yang got the lion's share, as did his subordinates, but he definitely got a lot.

This trip is equivalent to the income of the previous six months. No wonder Brother Yu would target him for this reason. The power of unity is so strong.

Guan Jianguo has money, but this money cannot be spent openly. He is just a small tractor driver now, and the money he can spend under the noses of others is only the salary of more than ten yuan per month.

A salary of more than ten yuan plus tickets can buy some daily necessities such as food, oil and salt, as well as a pair of decent Liberation shoes, two sets of clothes, plus the money for the adoptive father's medicine. This is already tight. If you want to live a better life in the eyes of others, it will attract attention.

The brigade asked to reimburse the gas money, and Guan Jianguo gladly accepted it.

Now that Guan Jianguo is here, it is much more convenient for Tan Yuan and her friends to go to the county. In just a few days, it will be National Day.

National Day is a big day, the most important day of the year except for the Spring Festival. Naturally, all factories and units in the county have to have a holiday.

It is extremely difficult for an ordinary family to buy a TV these days. In fact, there is not a single TV in the entire Huaiyin Brigade, let alone a TV, there is not even a radio.

However, the county's loudspeaker played the national anthem in the morning. When I went to the supply and marketing cooperative, there was a radio there, so I could listen to the flag-raising ceremony at Tiananmen Square and the speeches of the leaders.

People nowadays have much stronger patriotic sentiments than those in later generations. At least Tan Yuan saw that the entire street was full of people, especially in front of the supply and marketing cooperative, which was extremely crowded.

Today is not only National Day, but also the first day of the lucky draw at the tofu factory franchise store. Lin Guoan and Zhou Zhigang are both here. Not only them, but also several strong laborers were called from the brigade to maintain order.

They all felt that even for the generous prizes, the store’s business today would definitely be very good, extremely good.

But now, the store has not officially opened yet, and the lottery has not started yet. Everyone turned their heads towards the supply and marketing cooperative's radio. No one knew who took the lead, but when they heard the prelude to the national anthem, everyone started saluting that direction.

Zhou Zhigang stood straight, and if you looked closely you could see that his eyes were very complicated.

However, no one would go to see Zhou Zhigang. After the flag-raising ceremony was over, Tan Yuan and the others would also prepare to open the door.

There were already a lot of people crowding the door, all of them rubbing their hands, waiting for the lucky draw. They had been looking forward to it since they first heard the news, and it would be great if they could get the grand prize.

Everyone in the Huaiyin Brigade also had a serious look on their faces. Just looking at the dense crowds of people at the door, they could foresee the scene that would happen in a while.

When it was nine o'clock, Tan Yuan took a look and saw that everything was ready. She nodded to everyone who looked serious.

As several big men walked out of the gate, several pretty and even tall female comrades came out. These female comrades wore the same clothes and had the same hair style, which was pleasing to the eye.

Customers who often come to the tofu shop can recognize them at a glance. They are the sales clerks in the store. The last ones to come are Tan Yuan, Lin Guoan and Zhou Zhigang.

Normally, it should be Zhou Zhigang, the team leader, or Tan Yuan who officially announced the start, but one of them did not like such occasions, and the other felt that he did not want to be in the spotlight, so the task fell on Lin Guoan.

Lin Guoan was incredibly excited. There were so many people coming today. If everyone could go into the store and buy some dried tofu, wouldn't the sales skyrocket?!

With excitement, he announced the lottery rules and prizes.

The grand prize was placed next to the store, next to a table with a large box inside, which was full of notes.

"Everyone, look carefully. These are the slips of paper with the grand prize written on them. I put them all in there."

Lin Guoan put the note with the grand prize written on it into the box and started shaking it, and everyone's hearts followed his movements.

Some smart eyes stared at his hand, trying to analyze from his strength and other factors where the note with the grand prize written on it was placed.

When some skeptical people saw this scene, they had a lot of doubts in their hearts, and they all secretly said that the people in the tofu shop were great and did not deceive people.

However, not everyone believed Lin Guoan's actions. Everyone knew how to write the word "magic trick", but when they saw the winner appear and actually take away the prize, they would never believe it.

There were so many people waiting for the lottery that the male comrades from the Huaiyin Brigade who came to maintain order asked everyone to line up.

Tan Yuan admired Luo Linlin's face very much. Based on the principle of making the best use of things, Tan Yuan asked Luo Linlin to host the lottery and also took out a big loudspeaker and asked Luo Linlin to ask everyone to line up.

People who are good-looking have benefits. For example, now, Luo Linlin just called out a few times, and many people really lined up obediently.

There are quite a few people queuing up for the lottery. They all have one thing in common: they are all employees of the county factory. During the Mid-Autumn Festival, their factories undoubtedly ordered tofu from the Huaiyin Brigade Tofu Factory as a welfare benefit.

This really made those who didn't have lottery tickets jealous and envious, but no matter how jealous or envious they were, there was nothing they could do. Once missed, it was missed, and it was too late to regret. If they wanted to win the lottery now, there was only one way, and that was to spend money.

"Comrade, if we buy something from you, will we really donate the money?"

People at this time were really a little different from those in later generations. People at this time were more simple and honest. Apart from prizes, what they cared most about was donating money to do good deeds.

If I can really donate some, then even if I don’t win, I’ll just consider it as doing a good deed.
