The distance from the gate of the main house to the plum garden is only about twenty meters, but Xue Laosan felt that it was thousands of miles away. The chicken coops and doghouses, vegetable beds and melon stands in the courtyard were a warm picture of a farmhouse, which should have given people a sense of harmony and nature.
Feeling, but when Xue Laosan stepped into the hospital, his heart seemed to be weighed down by a heavy burden.
Originally, you came just as you came. You didn't go through the main entrance and took a detour, obviously avoiding the owner. But you can take a detour. It's just bad luck that someone will catch you. When you see the owner again, you will be too shameless.
Thick, it is inevitably embarrassing.
What's more, this master is as powerful as the sky and as powerful as the abyss. No matter how courageous Xue Laosan is, meeting him in this situation will inevitably make him feel uneasy.
Fortunately, after these years of experience and experience, Xue Laosan has seen many scenes. Xue Laosan has excellent psychological quality. As soon as he steps towards the threshold of the main room, he forcibly suppresses the embarrassment in his heart. He quickly walks to the atrium and says a warm word to the old chief.
After saying his New Year's greetings, he generously saluted and said hello to all the big guys around him.
After watching Xue Laosan's fuss with a smile, the old leader said, "You melon boy, are you here to pay me New Year greetings? You can't come in, and you are wandering around. If you hadn't been notified and knew you were coming, you would have arrested me.
If I don't meet you, you're a good kid. If nothing else, you've cultivated your shameless skills. You can get in, and you can also wish my old man a happy new year. Xue Xiang, aren't you simple?"
From the beginning to the end, the old leader was smiling when he said these words, but Xue Laosan felt chills run down his spine after hearing this. If he hadn't locked the hair follicles forcibly, he would have been sweating profusely at this moment.
What a good Xue Laosan, the more critical the moment, the clearer his mind becomes. The old leader just finished speaking. He then answered, "Chief, you have wronged me. That's what happened. I'm here to wish you a happy new year."
, I didn’t bring any other goodies, I just brought them from Shuzhong
These specialties, no, when I walked to your door, the packaging was broken. I was angry and anxious. It is not easy to bring gifts with broken packaging to your door, so I thought of getting some materials from the other side and repacking them. No, Jiang.
The minister found it out. You misunderstood me."
Talking. Xue Laosan lifted the straw basket in his hand and exposed the bottom. A few straws were indeed broken and a small hole was made.
The material of this straw basket is very rough, but the shape of the weaving is exquisite. It is exactly a black dragon with claws and beard spread out. It is extremely lifelike. It was Xue Laosan who specially designed it when preparing a gift for the old leader.
Prepared with care.[
Nowadays, he has a pair of wonderful hands that are as dexterous as any in the world. With his craftsmanship, he immediately became the most powerful artist.
Because the grass dragon is cleverly woven, it is indeed a very important package. If the person giving the gift finds that the package is damaged, he must repair it properly, no matter what.
What's more, everyone entered the door first, and everyone saw a giant haystack piled high on the north side of the main house. Xue Xiang wanted to cross the gate, remove the old straw, and repair the grass dragon. It was really reasonable and reasonable.
Du Dujiang Chaotian's heart is like a bright mirror. Because this grass dragon is so exquisitely and talentedly weaved, he pays more attention to it. He can clearly see that this grass dragon is clearly intact. Why is there a hole at the bottom now?
Speaking of which, Xue Laosan must be extremely smart and have good hands.
The old chief was faced with a difficult problem, so he used his brain to compile the most perfect lie based on the actual situation, and even used clever means to make the lie flawless.
Of course, his lies could be hidden from the eyes of all the high-ranking bigwigs in the city, but as long as they are justified and can be criticized, that's all.
After all, the old chief's current embarrassment was probably not really to make Xue Laosan difficult, but just to make Xue Laosan anxious and embarrassed.
Sure enough, after Xue Laosan explained, the old leader laughed, pointed at Xue Laosan, and said to the crowd, "When it comes to giving gifts, this monkey is good at asking for trouble. Every time he gets some worthless things to fool everyone.
My old man, last time I soaked three peppers, I’m afraid it’s some old-fashioned stuff this time, too stingy!”
The old chief said that Xue Laosan was stingy, but everyone could see the smile on his face.
Speaking of which, it’s not that no one secretly complained about miscalculation, why didn’t he start with more specialties from Shu? But then he thought about it, how would it be appropriate to send some pickled melons and rotten dates to the old chief to pay New Year’s greetings?
Indeed, the difference in status leads to the difference in gift-giving. Xue Laosan is getting close to the younger generation and sending some specialties from his hometown, which is filial piety.
If others don't have this closeness, they naturally won't have the courage.
However, when the old leader made a joke, everyone immediately responded and said all good things.
In a word, although the gift is small, Xue Xiang always has ingenuity. If nothing else, this grass dragon is extraordinary, and the things inside must be excellent.[
The old chief ignored the public opinion and raised his hand to point at Xue Xiang, "Monkey boy, you're so clever, you'd better do it yourself."
Xue Xiang took the order and placed the grass dragon on a nearby high stool. He held the dragon's beard on the right side with one hand and the dragon's beard on the left with the other. He gently pulled it. In an instant, the whole grass dragon seemed to shed its skin.
Usually, in the blink of an eye, a pile of straw fell off, and was instantly crushed into a ball by Xue Xiang and thrown into the trash can on the side.
But he said that when the dragon's body was peeled off, the thing wrapped in the dragon's belly also revealed its true appearance.
But it is a green gourd, about a foot tall and about the thickness of a fist. The spout is carved into the head of a cute gourd doll. Its entire appearance is clearly an enlarged version of the Shu Xiang King gourd doll that made a splash at last night's Spring Festival Gala.
.
"King of Shuxiang, is he King of Shuxiang?"
The old leader suddenly grabbed the gourd and asked Xue Xiang urgently. His brows were extremely excited. After saying that, he slapped Xue Laosan on the shoulder and said, "No, Yunjin Lake in Shuzhong; I remember there is Yunjin Lake in Dejiang, your son."
Are you working in Dejiang now? Could it be that you created this Shuxiang King? There are many words."
While the old chief was speaking, Jiang Chaotian, who was hiding in the northwest corner, and Shi Jianfei, who was standing near the door, suddenly looked at each other, with deep worry in their eyes.
It turns out that today, the first day of the Lunar New Year, all the big bosses went to the old chief's house to pay New Year's greetings. After all, it was not easy to talk about official matters, but they are all people who have the world at heart. Even if they chat, it will inevitably involve politics.
Nowadays, the most political and interesting topic is undoubtedly the King of Shuxiang.
It turns out that the Spring Festival Gala ended last night with an unprecedented sensation as usual. Ordinary people felt that the program was brilliant and the year's wait was well worth it.
But it exploded in the business community of the Republic. King Shu Xiang's extremely shameful and crazy advertisement was like detonating an atom with a weight of billions, blinding the eyes of all businessmen in this era.
Speaking of which, it is not that businessmen in this era have no awareness of advertising, but that there is no way to solve the business ban now, and after the Eight Kings incident, the self-employed and private owners are still collectively trembling. Even if they think of advertising, they are just in the dark.
Put up some small advertisements on the city's main thoroughfares, and for larger ones, put some tofu cubes in newspapers. (To be continued...)
