Gu Jingqi decided to hide out first, "I know, then I'll put my schoolbag away first."
As soon as Gu Jingxiu came back, he washed his hands and went into the kitchen to help serve the dishes.
After the food was served, everyone gathered together. Tang Jianye ate and said, "Jingchuan, Xiaomin, Jingyue and I came here today to consult you two on something."
Gu Jingchuan said politely, "Second uncle, please tell me."
"Jingyue said that Xiao Min mentioned to her that there is a place in your hometown that specializes in growing medicinal materials and there are many types of wild medicinal materials. Is it true?"
"Growing medicinal materials?" Gu Jingchuan had never heard of it.
Tang Min heard what Tang Jianye said and said, "Second uncle, are you talking about Longshan County? It is true that Chinese medicinal materials are grown there, but it should be in the experimental stage now. From Longshan County
Most of the medicinal materials entering the market are wild."
She had mentioned this matter to Tang Jingyue.
"Xiao Min, is this news reliable?"
Tang Jianye's eyes suddenly lit up, he looked at her and asked.
Tang Min smiled and said, "Second uncle, why is this unreliable?"
In this era, information is limited. Without a lot of publicity, it is impossible to understand the dynamics of a small county.
Bincheng is thousands of kilometers away from Longshan County, so even if Tang Jianye is engaged in medicinal material processing, he doesn't know the situation of medicinal materials in the small county.
Tang Min asked, "Second uncle, do you want to go there to collect medicinal materials?"
Tang Jianye sighed and said, "To tell you the truth, our medicine processing factory must expand its business now. The medicinal materials provided by the suppliers are of poor quality and the prices are still high.
There is no room for sloppiness in the medicinal materials business. One hospital has already proposed to terminate its cooperation with us. We are now facing great difficulties and must find a new supplier. We
You have to go to the medicinal material base to inspect it yourself before you can decide whether the medicinal material can enter our factory."
"Second Uncle, then you can go to Longshan to have a look."
"Jingyue means the same thing. What she said is very clear. I just want to ask you and Jingchuan, do you know anyone in Longshan County? If you are not familiar with the place, there is nothing you can do if you go there.
The key to carrying out the work is that the local people must speak a dialect that is difficult for us to communicate with, so it is easier to get things done if we have acquaintances.”
This is the main purpose of Tang Jianye's visit today.
Since Tang Min knows the situation of medicinal materials in Longshan County, she should be familiar with the situation there.
If Tang Min and Gu Jingchuan can help them connect with medicinal material dealers in Longshan County, then their Jianmin medicinal material processing factory can usher in spring.
Tang Min thought for a while and said awkwardly, "It seems that I don't know anyone there in Longshan..." She looked at Gu Jingchuan again, "Jingchuan, do you know anyone there?"
Gu Jingchuan also shook his head, "Me neither."
Gu Jingchuan's connections are all in the army, not to mention that Longshan County is the county next to their hometown, so he really doesn't know anyone.
He didn't even know that there were medicinal materials there.
"Second brother and second sister-in-law, is the Duanshan County you are talking about the county next to our county?"
Gu Jingxiu, who had been eating with his head down and not daring to interrupt, suddenly raised his head, looked at Tang Min and Gu Jingchuan and spoke.
Tang Min replied, "Yes, that's right there."
Gu Jingxiu thought for a moment and then said, "Dad, I guess he knows someone. He went there to work the year before last, and I heard that he even stayed at a medicine farmer's house."
Gu Jingchuan and Tang Min were both surprised, "Dad worked in Dongshan?"
This was also the first time Gu Jingchuan heard about his father going to Longshan to work.
Gu Jingxiu saw her second brother's face full of shock. She was shocked to realize that she seemed to have let something slip. She couldn't hide it at this time, so she could only bite the bullet and continue, "Yes, it was the second brother who was injured just now."
One year, he went to work in a brick factory in Longshan and went with his uncle."
"Dad worked in a brick factory in another county?"
Gu Jingqi also thought about it, "At that time, the eldest brother had just gotten married and the family owed some debts, so he went to work outside."
Tang Min sat next to Gu Jingchuan and felt that his mood suddenly became depressed. She gave Gu Jingchuan some food with chopsticks to ease the atmosphere, "Jingchuan, this is all in the past. Now
It’s fine with my parents.”
She asked Gu Jingxiu, "How long has Dad been there? He should be quite familiar with Longshan."
"I've been working for more than half a year."
"Jingchuan, why don't you call dad and ask him about the situation there and see if he has any acquaintances. If my second uncle and his friends send someone there, they will at least have acquaintances for communication.
It’s more convenient.”
Gu Jingchuan's depression only lasted for a moment. He smiled and said, "Second uncle, let's eat first. After dinner, I will call my father."
"Okay, let's talk after dinner..."
There is no landline installed in my hometown, so every time I call, I either make a call to the shop in front of the restaurant, or to the canteen in the village.
The restaurant should have been closed at this time. After dinner, Gu Jingxiu and Tang Min knew there was no rush to wash the pots. After putting away the dishes, everyone sat together and waited for Gu Jingchuan to give them something.
Call home.
Gu Jingchuan directly called the canteen in the village and asked the aunt at the canteen to ask his father to answer the phone.
Then Gu Jingchuan hung up the phone first, planning to wait 10 minutes before calling again.
The diligent Gu Jingxiu couldn't sit still, so he ran to wash the fruits and brought them over, "Come on, let's eat some fruits and wait while you eat."
Jin Zhengtai took a big red strawberry and put it into his mouth, and asked Gu Jingxiu with a smile, "Jingxiu, where did you buy such a big strawberry? Not only do you cook delicious food, you also
Why are the strawberries so sweet?"
Gu Jingxiu, "..."
She rolled her eyes, then pointed at Tang Jingyue awkwardly, "Sister Jingyue bought this."
Jin Zhengtai paused while eating the strawberry, and looked at Tang Jingyue with dull eyes. He pulled his lips and smiled, "Strawberries in this season seem to be quite sweet."
Tang Jianye smiled and said, "Xiaojin, if you like it, eat more. I'll ask my Jingyue to buy it for you next time."
"Dad, hold it tight." Tang Jingyue glanced at Tang Jianye and spoke coldly. Tang Jianye suddenly stopped.
Everyone was eating strawberries and chatting. Gu Jingchuan waited until the time was almost up and called the canteen again.
As soon as the connection was connected, he had just said "feed" when Gu Decheng's voice came over.
"Hello, Jingchuan?"
Gu Jingchuan said, "Dad, it's me, have you eaten?"
"After eating, your mother and I just came back from the restaurant."
"How is business lately? Are you feeling well?" Gu Jingchuan felt very uncomfortable because he had just found out that his father had gone to work in a brick factory in another county behind his back.
Especially now, when he was far away and heard his father's voice, his nose felt sore and uncomfortable.
"Business is still like that. Anyway, there aren't too many people in the day. Your mother and I are quite free and our health is good."
"Don't be too tired."
Gu Jingchuan adjusted his emotions and was about to ask about business. Suddenly, another person's voice came over the phone, "Jingchuan, how are you doing in Bincheng? What's so good over there in Bincheng?"
