Liu Haizhong is not as caring as Yan Fugui. Besides, Yan Fugui promised to give another 100 yuan, but he has no reason not to agree.
And compared to Yan Fugui, whose salary is only 30.5 yuan a month, Liu Haizhong, who earns 72.3 yuan a month, has a lot of spare money.
Upon hearing that Yan Fugui asked Jiefang to pay him back 110 yuan, Liu Haizhong simply applied this standard to Liu Guangtian's head.
I was about to go home to get the money, but was stopped by Chu Xiangqian.
Chu Qianqian looked at Yan Fugui and said, "Third uncle, just give me the money and go home. I will take care of the liberation work for you tomorrow."
After the conversation with Liu Haizhong just now, Yan Fugui guessed that there should be copper coins under the rag.
After all, when copper coins are piled together, even if they are covered with a rag, the traces on the rag can still easily guess what they are.
He smiled and said, "Go forward, I just exchanged 4 copper coins and 1 silver dollar for a pheasant with you. What Lao Liu brought was also copper coins, so there is no need to hide it from me."
Chu Qianqian rolled his eyes at Mr. Yan and looked at Liu Haizhong.
Seeing the questioning expression on Liu Haizhong's face, Chu Qiang shrugged and nodded, "The third uncle did exchange a pheasant with me just now."
Only then did Liu Haizhong feel relieved. He took the initiative to lift the rag, looked at Yan Fugui and said, "Old Yan, you read more than me and you are a teacher. Help me see if these copper coins are good things."
Yan Fugui chuckled, "That would be embarrassing."
Liu Haizhong nodded hurriedly, but Chu Qianqian frowned slightly, secretly wondering whether this Yan Laokou was a hidden master?
But it didn’t take long for Yan Laokou to reveal his secret.
People like him who are half-informed are often the favorite targets of scammers who specialize in digging holes in the antiques industry.
Fortunately, Yan Fugui has no money, otherwise he would be cheated without discussion.
Chu Xiangqian interrupted the elated Yan Fugui angrily, "Okay, third uncle, you'd better take your time."
After saying that, he took a copper coin from Yan Fugui's hand and threw it on the table in front of Liu Haizhong.
"I don't want this one. I advise you to send it back to your friend's house soon."
Liu Haizhong and Yan Fugui were stunned for a moment, then realized that Chu Xiangqian was implying that the copper coin just now was fake.
Just when he was about to speak, he saw Chu moving forward to pick up one by one, or put them on the table in front of him.
Or just take a few glances and put it in front of bangs.
This means that he, Chu Xiangqian, is an expert who can tell the truth from lies at a glance.
In the end, Chu Xiangqian only left 26 copper coins, "Second uncle, I will give you 2 pheasants and 1 hare, a total of 12 pounds. What do you think?"
Liu Haizhong nodded blankly, 10 pounds is equal to 12 yuan, but he made 2 yuan.
But 14 of the 40 copper coins were fake, which made Liu Haizhong unhappy.
I secretly scolded that friend for being unreliable, but then I thought about it, if he was reliable, he wouldn't sell the 40 copper coins to me for 10 yuan.
He even said that as long as the experts said it was fake, he would refund the money.
Calculating silently, 14 copper coins can be returned to 3 yuan and 50 cents.
In this way, I used my capital of 6 yuan and 50 cents to sell it for 12 yuan.
It’s ‘unreliable’ here and there, it’s totally the God of Wealth.
Liu Haizhong nodded hurriedly, "Okay, I will ask Guangtian to sell the two pheasants on the street in his name tomorrow. There is only one rabbit left, and I will open the meat store at my house tomorrow."
Naturally, Chu Xiangqian did not lose money. Anyway, he had lowered the price by buying copper coins, and he could sell some of the pheasants and hares that were squeezed in the warehouse.
Moreover, everyone in the bangs knows how to open the door, so Chu Xiangqian couldn’t help but look at Yan Fugui.
Lao Yan smiled awkwardly, "I'm not as good as the second uncle. His monthly salary is more than 40 yuan more than me!"
Liu Haizhong immediately became happy.
He doesn't dare to compete with Chu Qianqian now, but if he can show off in front of Yan Fugui and spend a few dollars to eat a hare, he will both satisfy his craving and gain face.
Not to mention, I made 8 yuan and 50 cents from Chu Xiangqian today.
Feeling happy, he said with a smile, "Go forward, after get off work tomorrow afternoon, I will go to my friend's place to look for it. If there are any good things again, I will come to your house to sit there."
The friends Liu Haizhong mentioned were nothing more than those apprentices and some co-workers.
These people either have some copper coins hidden at home, or they have the opportunity to come into contact with the steel rolling mill and purchase the copper coins used as raw materials for copper.
It is actually very easy as long as you remember what copper coins Chu Xiangqian asks for every time, then go to the raw material warehouse in the factory to look for them, and take him with him three or five times a day.
It's a pity that Chu Xiangqian didn't know about this at all. In his mind, since the steel rolling mill is called a steel rolling mill, it is naturally related to steel.
Moreover, Liu Haizhong said that he bought these copper coins from his friends, so Chu Xiangqian didn't even realize that the steel rolling mill was a great Feng Shui place to earn gold coupons.
When Liu Haizhong went home and took 100 yuan for himself, Chu Xiangqian sent him and Yan Fugui away, closed the door and put 30 copper coins and 5 silver dollars into the warehouse.
The aperture expanded by half a meter again.
One of the 26 copper coins in Liu Haizhong actually gave him a 7-point gold coupon, and many of the remaining copper coins were given 2-point or 3-point gold coupons.
At this time, the aperture has been extended to 13.58 meters.
It's a pity that no new animals or fruit trees appeared again in the half-meter increase this time.
On the contrary, in the river east of Novice Village, there are faint signs of an island in the river.
On the shoal of the island in the river, there was a crab as big as half a catty, crawling with its teeth and claws.
Just when Chu Xiangqian thought that the island in the middle of the lake should be a paradise for amphibious aquatic animals, a tiger roar suddenly came from the island.
Chu Xiangqian was startled and immediately overjoyed.
This tiger is on the island in the middle of the lake, which is definitely a good thing for me.
Get a boat, stand on the river and shoot arrows or guns at tigers, so you don't have to worry about tigers entering the water and attacking you.
With anticipation, Chu Qianqian simply lay down in the fountain pool in Xinshou Village and took a bath, soaking his clothes and boots in the water.
Ten minutes later, the pool water's built-in purification function not only refreshed Chu Qianqian's body, but also washed all his clothes.
I hung my clothes to dry in the blacksmith shop, and before I knew it, it was past 12 o'clock.
Brushed out the pheasants, hares and deer that were spawned again, and collected the fruits from 3 chestnut trees, a jujube tree, and a pear tree.
Finally, after catching 200 kilograms of fish from the river, Chu Xiangqian left Xinshou Village with peace of mind, lay down on the bed and fell asleep.
Early the next morning, after having a simple breakfast, Liu Guangtian and Yan Jiefang, with excited expressions on their faces, went to work on the street.
Find Duan Jidong in the office.
"Brother Duan, Liu Guangtian and Yan Jiefang from my yard went out of town after get off work yesterday and found 3 pheasants and 1 hare. I would like to ask if the canteen can collect them?"
"Of course," Duan Jidong nodded without thinking, "From now on, it will be all up to you, but when weighing, let people in the office come together to avoid difficulty in explaining.
As for the price, we can just know it ourselves. If anyone wants to check the account, let him go to the director.
As long as there is no problem with the weighing, the director will not care whether you bought the meat for 1 yuan or 50 cents."
When Chu Xiangqian heard this, he knew there was something in Duan Jidong's words.
"Brother Duan, the purchase of this meat does cost 1 yuan per catty, but when brothers get chestnuts and red dates in the future, let's add it up, how about adding it up?"
Duan Jidong thought for a while and nodded quickly.
He doesn't want to be greedy for anything. After all, the canteen only pays 100 yuan a month.
If you want to make additional purchases, you have to report to the director.
I don’t have much money, but I still have to support the 26th person in the unit, plus a lunch for two supernumeraries.
Thinking about it, I feel that Chu Xiangqian, let alone making money, can successfully complete this task, which is enough to give people a headache.
It’s just that Chu Xiangqian clearly asked Yan Jiefang and Liu Guangtian to cover for him, which means that he sold these 3 pheasants and 1 rabbit to the street.
If you don't take something out of his hands, you will be sorry for yourself, the head of the office.
"By the way, I heard from Uncle Sun that you got three big fish back yesterday afternoon. Do you plan to go to Houhai to catch a few more fish this morning?"
Chu Qianqian nodded and heard Duan Jidong continue, "Qianqian, since meat is so expensive, the quantity must be controlled in the future, but since fish is only 3 cents per pound, we have to get more.
And eating fish is also eating meat, but you don’t have to worry about other units gossiping.”
Chu Xiangqian didn't care about this matter. Anyway, whether it was meat or fish, he would just consume the 100 yuan every month.
"Okay, you have the final say on this matter. I only need to get food from outside, and then ask someone to cook a dish for lunch and steam some steamed buns. I don't care about anything else."
Duan Jidong chuckled and liked Chu Xiangqian, a partner who had clear powers and responsibilities and did not seize power.
Chu Qianqian thought of Wo Wo Tou, "By the way, since everyone pays food stamps and money to the office, then use the street food stamps issued by the office to buy food.
Then you have to be responsible for the procurement of food from now on."
Duan Jidong wished that Chu Xiangqian didn't care about food.
Each person pays 2 taels of meal stamps and 2 cents every day, which means he can buy 2 taels of white noodles, which would be 6 taels of stick noodles.
Then use the stick noodles to make the steamed buns, and you can definitely get the steamed buns for 7 taels and 5 yuan.
But at noon, the street only gave me 2 Wowotou, which was equivalent to making a profit of 3 taels and 5 cents.
For 26 people, 273 kilograms of steamed bread will be put into the street's small treasury in one month.
From now on, as the head of the office, I won’t have to be so demanding when my director wants to treat me to a treat.
As for meat, naturally go to Chu Xiangqian.
"Going forward, the director should invite some leaders of the unit to dinner in a few days. Can you find someone to prepare a table of good food?"
Chu Xiangqian's heart moved. He was thinking about how to mention Liu Guangtian and Yan Jiefang's temporary workers to Duan Jidong, but he didn't want to fall asleep so he sent him a pillow.
He complained and said, "Brother Duan, I have no problem with game and big fish, but it's not easy for me and two non-staff members in the canteen to provide food for 28 people every day.
If you ask me to prepare another table of food and wine, it will really make things difficult for me."
Duan Jidong was not stupid, and he knew as soon as he heard that Chu Xiangqian wanted to make conditions.
He smiled and said, "Okay, anyway, the director has asked you to recruit two temporary workers to help in the canteen. Just tell me who you want to hire."
When Chu Qianqian saw that his thoughts had been seen through, he had no embarrassing thoughts.
He smiled and said, "Just those two guys Liu Guangtian and Yan Jiefang."
Duan Jidong knew at a glance that Chu Xiangqian must have taken advantage of others, but he didn't intend to care about it.
Otherwise, if you help others find jobs in the future, others may ruin your good deeds.
"Okay, I'll call them to the office later, and I'll personally issue them a temporary worker's work permit. It's 10 yuan a month, and you can have a bite in the cafeteria at noon.
As for the food stamps and money for lunch, forget it, they are considered as benefits for your canteen staff."
This treatment is actually very good. After all, if you eat for free at noon, you will save 6 kilograms of food and 6 yuan.
Chu Xiangqian hurriedly thanked him. He was trying to give himself face, so he had to remember to pay it back.
After thinking for a while, he said, "Brother Duan, I will take care of the director's treat.
There is a descendant of Tan’s cuisine in my yard, and he makes excellent Tan’s and Sichuan cuisine.
When the time comes, I’ll ask him to come to the street to help and keep it so that you and the director can look good.”
Duan Jidong is overjoyed.
Chu Xiangqian continued in a low voice, "I'll go back later in the afternoon. I'll bring back some more fish today. We'll have a good meal of stewed fish with shredded radish in the canteen in the evening.
After eating, I will ask you to bring some shredded radish and fish stew back to satisfy your sister-in-law and children's cravings.
However, you have to pay for the drinks. I have just started working, and the most important thing I need is tobacco and alcohol tickets."
"Okay," Duan Jidong was overjoyed. Chu Qianqian was treating him to a treat, and he had to stew two big fish no matter what. By then, he would eat one at night and take the other home, so his wife and children would be able to eat for two or three days.
"I've paid for the wine. As for the tobacco and alcohol tickets, if you really need them, I'll help you find someone to ask. Then give me some game and keep it so you don't suffer a loss."
Chu Xiangqian was overjoyed, "It's settled, when you go back in the evening, I'll get you half a twenty-pound dried wolf meat."
Duan Jidong was stunned. He thought it was only three to five kilograms at most, but he didn't expect that this guy would get twenty kilograms of dried wolf meat.
Damn it, it seems I still underestimated this guy’s ability.
But that’s fine, since it’s dried meat in exchange for tobacco and alcohol tickets. Even if others find out, there’s nothing you can do about it.
------
Half an hour later, Chu Qianqian, who was sitting in the Public Security Bureau office and talking to Xue Hongmei, saw Liu Guangtian and Yan Jiefang knocking on the door and walking in with excited faces.
He took out the work permit of the temporary worker and said, "Brother, our work is done."
Chu Qianqian nodded, "Then let's make preparations in the cafeteria. First kill the 3 fish that we saved yesterday, chop some garlic, and cut 5 radishes into shreds. You can kill the fish again when I come back from fishing later." Liu Guangtian and Yan Jiefang nodded hurriedly, and went to the yard, where the utility room had been converted into a canteen, to make preparations.
After the two of them left, Xue Hongmei said with a smile, "Go forward, don't forget the fish you promised me."
Chu Xiangqian nodded hurriedly, "Don't worry, I will ask Liu Guangtian and Yan Jiefang to send 5 big fish to your home today."
When Xue Hongmei heard that Chu Xiangqian had brought five big fish for herself, her eyes narrowed in laughter.
Secretly, Chu Xiangqian is not only capable, but also very generous.
With these five big fish, not only will the New Year be more abundant this year, but you will also be able to make a splash in your husband’s family.
