The modern fortune-telling history of a small shopkeeper

He happened to have a piece of data to be checked in his hand, and he still had work in hand, so he couldn't take care of both sides.Seeing his nephew sitting here with nothing to do, Zhang Huaiyuan arrested someone to come to work, and shouted, "Xiao Lang, check this data for me. Come here, and I'll tell you how to check it."

If it was someone else, Zhang Huaiyuan might not trust him yet.But this is his dear nephew, and he still trusts him very much.

"Okay, what data do you want to check?" Qiao Minglang walked over, and after hearing his uncle talk about how to check the data, he moved a chair and went over to check the data.Usually, he is also doing the data of their two stores, but the data in hand is more complicated.

After hearing what his uncle said, he probably knew how to check it.

"Xiaoyong, help me take this item outside to Master Zhang." Zhang Huaiyuan took out a blueprint and asked Qiao Mingyong to send it over for him.

"Okay." Qiao Mingyong happened to be sitting here, feeling very bored, so he went to help run errands.

But once he went out, he didn't come back for a long time.

Zhang Huaiyuan was busy here, so he didn't realize that there was one person missing in the office.

Only Qiao Minglang remembered that his little cousin had been away for so long and hadn't come back. He looked outside and saw his little cousin learning what to do with others, so he didn't care about his little cousin and concentrated on Helping his uncle here.

The factory is an assembly line of production, and each department is responsible for a responsibility and is responsible for different tasks.The workers sat in a small workshop, and when it was time to actually work, everyone was seriously doing the work at hand, and few of them were still talking.

I was busy until twelve o'clock at noon, when the aunt who was in charge of cooking came to deliver the meal, everyone stopped their work and took the lunch box to make a meal.

In the factory, there is a place to eat independently, but it is also a big table, and everyone sits around the table to eat.

"Manager, it's time to eat." The aunt who brought the food knocked on the door.

Only then did Zhang Huaiyuan raise his head from a pile of forms, and replied, "Okay, I got it, you go eat first, and I'll be right over."

If they were at the factory at noon, they would not bother to go out for lunch, they would eat with the workers in the factory.The aunt who cooks is hired separately. Every day, she cooks meals from the dormitory and sends them to the factory for everyone to eat, which saves everyone from running around.

"You two, do you want to eat here with everyone, or go out to eat?" Zhang Huaiyuan just remembered that there are two more people here today, and they only have two bowls and chopsticks to eat here.

"We're here to eat with everyone." Qiao Minglang didn't mind, it doesn't matter where he eats.

"I can do it." Qiao Mingyong said.

"There are a few bowls here. I'll take you to the office to eat." Zhang Huaiyuan usually eats in the office. It just so happens that Chen Feng is not here today, so his box can be borrowed.

He took the two children out to cook, and we stayed together during the meal, so as not to have to make a few jokes.

They used the box to put the vegetables, and the lids to put the rice, and when they were done, he found a big water cup to put the vegetables in, which was enough for the three of them to eat.The last problem is that they only have two pairs of chopsticks. Fortunately, he still has a spoon here, which he uses to scoop up rice.

The aunt they invited cooks a good dish, and everyone likes it.

There is a one-and-a-half-minute break at noon. After everyone has eaten, there is still one hour in the middle. Some people lie on the table and sleep for a while, while others are still dealing with the work in hand.

I don't officially start work until 01:30 in the afternoon, and I have to be busy until six o'clock in the afternoon before I get off work.

Most of the factories around here are paid by the piece, and this factory is the same, that is, if they do more, they get more money. If they are lazy and don't work, they will naturally get less money.For such people, they don't need to resign themselves, they will ask them to leave the factory.

When it was time to get off work, many people packed up their things and left, and some people wanted to do more work and stayed to work overtime.

The factory only includes one meal and one lunch, dinner is not included, but the workers are given a little subsidized meal money every month.

There are many small food shops near the factory. Every day at this time after work, there are many people lining up outside the shops to buy food.

"Fortunately, I have Xiao Lang helping me today, otherwise I don't know how long I will work alone."

After finishing the work at hand, Zhang Huaiyuan realized that it was already so late. When he saw the two boys who had been caught by him and had been working for a day, he felt a little guilty, and said, "Let's pack up and go back."

"Do you want to eat anything? I'll take you to eat. Ah Feng may not be back until very late, so I'll take you to eat."

"I don't have anything in particular that I want to eat, just eat anything." Qiao Minglang asked his cousin what he wanted to eat, and Qiao Mingyong also said that anything is fine.

"Uncle, is there a vegetable market near you? Why don't we go buy some food and cook it by ourselves." Anyway, there is a kitchen at home, so buying some food and cooking it is also a hands-on job.

Even though his brother-in-law didn't say anything, Qiao Minglang could tell that his brother-in-law and Chen Feng's lives were not easy after coming here.

The money they spend eating out for one meal is enough for them to buy vegetables and cook three meals by themselves.

They are not people who live too extravagantly, as long as they can eat enough, they are not people who have to go to restaurants every day.

"Yes, I don't know if there are still vegetables that can't be sold right now." Zhang Huaiyuan tidied up the things on the table, put some important documents in the cabinet and locked them, and said, "Come on, let's go and have a look."

He called the two boys to go out together, and by the way, he turned off the lights in the office and locked the door.

Before leaving, Zhang Huaiyuan also turned off the switches of the machines in the factory and pulled down the main brake.After checking that there was no problem, they went out and locked the door of the factory building.

Everyone went out together.

"This used to be a rural area. Later, some factories moved here, so there are many factories here. Now there are quite a lot of people here." Zhang Huaiyuan took his nephew and Qiao Mingyong to the vegetable market to buy vegetables.

There used to be a vegetable market not far from the house they rented, and the vegetable market here sold vegetables late, but it was a bit late at this time, and he didn't know if there were any vegetables for sale.

He and Chen Feng had been here a few times before, but he himself had never come to these places.

The main reason is that his own cooking skills are limited, and he really can't make much delicious food. Instead of spending that time cooking, he would rather spend two yuan to buy a few steamed buns, which are better than cooking by himself. powerful.At least the steamed buns bought outside can fill the stomach, and the rice cooked by myself may poison myself to death.

It is not easy to be alive, but we still have to live well and cherish life.

At this time, many factories are off work, and some people go to the vegetable market to buy vegetables and go back to cooking.

However, they came a little late. There were not many people buying vegetables, and there were not many vegetables left on the stalls. Some stall owners were already packing up their stalls and preparing to go back.

"Shall we buy something?" Zhang Huaiyuan was really a little ignorant about the matter of grocery shopping, so he started. If you really think about it, he really never went shopping by himself.

"Uncle, don't you want to eat scallion pancakes? Let's buy some scallions and some green vegetables, and see if there is any meat for sale. It seems that yesterday's flour is almost used up, and we need to buy some flour." Seeing a stall left A few vegetables were okay, so Qiao Minglang picked out a Chinese cabbage and some potatoes, a handful of green onions, ginger and garlic.

"Oh, this is fine." Seeing that his nephew wanted to pay, Zhang Huaiyuan stopped him, "No, let me pay."

"And then, do you want to buy something?"

"The meat may not be very fresh at this time. Let's see if there is any fish and buy a fish." Qiao Minglang just remembered that the weather here is hot, and it is a bit late now, and the remaining pork may not be too hot fresh.

Seeing a stall selling fish, the fish had just been fished out of the water and killed, so they asked for a dace.

Next door was a chicken shop. They asked the boss to kill a chicken, and then they went back with their things.

In Guangcheng in early May, the weather was already a little hot, and the pedestrians on the road were all wearing short sleeves.

The night in summer is slow, and the sky is still bright until seven o'clock.After they bought the vegetables and walked back to where they lived, it happened to be dark.

Opening the door and turning on the light in the room, Zhang Huaiyuan followed his nephew into the kitchen, and seeing his nephew packing up the groceries, he asked, "Is there anything I can do?"

The water from the faucet was rattling, Qiao Minglang put the bought chicken under the water to rinse, and his little cousin was there to help him.

Hearing his uncle's words, Qiao Minglang turned his head and glanced at his uncle, and said, "There is nothing for my uncle to do, as long as Brother Xiaoyong is here to help me. Brother, why don't you take a bath first, maybe you will have to wait a while I have food to eat."

They have just started cooking now, and it will take half an hour before they can eat.

Although he had never lived with his uncle, Qiao Minglang felt that his uncle should be a person who is not very good at cooking, judging from the short time they got along with each other.This kitchen is so small, it is already barely enough for two people to stand here, and one more person may not be able to stand in.

Zhang Huaiyuan saw that there was really nothing he could do to help, so he had no choice but to give up helping, "That's all right, you guys do it, I'll take a shower first." Otherwise, there will be a lot of people in a while, and they will have to line up to take a shower.

"Okay." Qiao Minglang replied without looking back.
