"Xiaoyu, go make a pot of good tea." Zhou Peng said carelessly as he walked inside, and took Du Fei directly into the upper room.
Du Fei walked in and looked at the yard silently.
This is a small triple courtyard with a total of three main rooms, plus left and right side rooms. There is no side room in the south.
There is not much to see in the courtyard. It is similar to the large courtyards of this era, a bit dilapidated and dirty.
But as soon as I entered the house, it was suddenly different.
There are modern Soviet-style furniture, sofas and coffee tables, ceiling fans and vases, and the latest long-tube fluorescent lamps are hung on the roof. The terrazzo floor seems to have been waxed. When the lamp is shined, it reflects directly.
Du Fei originally thought that his house was pretty good, but compared with Zhou Peng, it was obviously more simple and low-key.
"Brother Zhou, your house is really nice! It opened my eyes." Du Fei sat down and complimented with a smile, but he felt a little guilty.
This place is obviously Zhou Peng's foreign residence.
What does he mean by bringing him here? Is it simply a sign of closeness, or does it have a deeper meaning?
At this time, the woman named Xiaoyu brought the tea, and as in the old society, she bowed before exiting.
"Brother Zhou, you..." Du Fei smiled and showed an expression that every man would understand.
Zhou Peng also smiled, without comment, and asked, "Brother, it's time to reveal your business now."
Du Fei simply took out the note from his pocket and pushed it in front of Zhou Peng, "Brother Zhou, take a look at this first."
Zhou Peng was indeed an expert when it came to material supply. His eyes quickly scanned the note and he immediately guessed it.
He looked up and looked at Du Fei and said, "The forestry bureau's unplanned timber? How much is it?"
Du Fei smiled and took the note back.
Although this note was not written by him, it has Jiang Donglai's notes and cannot be left here casually.
Du Fei folded the note and put it in his pocket , while lowering his voice and saying, "Fourteen train skins."
Zhou Peng couldn't help but change his expression after hearing this.
The wood for fourteen carriages is not a small amount. Fortunately, it is business to business and the procedures are quite complete.
Zhou Peng thought for a moment, slapped his thigh and said, "I'll take this job! But the price is..."
Du Fei immediately waved his hand to interrupt him, "Brother Zhou, I'm just here to pull the strings. You can discuss the specific regulations after we meet."
Zhou Peng nodded and said, "That's good. It saves us brothers from fighting over three melons and two jujubes."
Du Fei smiled and accepted it as acquiescence.
In fact, he didn't know the market conditions at all, nor did he know the bottom line of Jiang Donglai's comrades, so he couldn't talk about it at all.
Afterwards, the two of them agreed on a time and place, and stopped mentioning the matter. Instead, they drank tea and chatted, chatting about all kinds of things, and actually had a great time talking.
We exchanged a cup of tea in the middle and chatted for more than an hour before returning to the unit.
It was almost noon, Du Fei told Sun Lan about Zhou Peng's situation and asked her to convey it to Jiang Donglai.
As for the next step in the negotiations, Du Fei will not be involved. Jiang Donglai and his comrades can just go to Zhou Peng directly.
Before twelve o'clock, Sun Lan left in a hurry without waiting to get off work.
Du Fei didn't take this matter too seriously.
Since Zhou Peng agreed to this matter, we are basically inseparable.
In the past two days, he had been reciting the Little Red Book with all his strength, copying it over and over again, and then memorizing it silently until he knew it by heart.
Although the little red book is not big, it still contains tens of thousands of words. It takes a lot of effort to memorize them all and make them easy to read.
Du Fei didn't dare to be lazy in this regard.
Fortunately, it's still early, so it's not too late to get it on the shelves.
On the contrary, Zhu Ting was not only dragged around by Director Wang for meetings these two days, but also had to be busy writing a year-end summary.
As the person in charge of academic qualifications for the entire sub-district office, this kind of finicky thing cannot be done no matter what.
Wait until get off work ends in the evening.
Du Fei pushed his bicycle out and prepared to go back to the courtyard
Unexpectedly, as soon as he left the door of the unit, he saw Lei Laoliu squatting and smoking not far away.
Du Fei frowned, he found that Lei Laoliu especially liked squatting at the door.
Speaking of the last time he went to the courtyard, he was afraid of disturbing his sleep. Now he was at the door of the unit, why didn't he go in?
Du Fei pushed his bicycle over and saw five or six cigarette butts on the ground. It seemed that he had been waiting for a long time.
When Lei Laoliu saw Du Fei coming over, he quickly stood up and threw the remaining half of the cigarette on the ground, stamped it out with his foot, and grinned, "Leader Du~"
Du Fei did not stand at the door of the unit, but motioned for him to walk and talk.
Lei Laoliu hurriedly pushed his bicycle to follow.
Du Fei said, "Old Lei, I have already notified Mr. Wei about the incident. You don't need to make another trip."
Lei Laoliu nodded and said, "Hey~ I know. Well...it's not about Mr. Wei this time."
"Oh?" Du Fei glanced at him.
Lei Laoliu smiled and said, "That's Lao Yang..."
Du Fei still remembered that the carpenter who built his house was a very good carpenter.
"What's wrong with Lao Yang?" Du Fei asked.
Lei Laoliu sighed, "Lao Yang's family is seriously ill. Neither of them are workers, so they don't have public medical care..."
Du Fei knew what was going on as soon as he heard it. In this era, although medical prices are very low, it is difficult for people who are not included in the public medical system to get serious illness.
Du Fei immediately asked, "How much do you need?"
Lei Laoliu's eyes lit up and he hurriedly said, "Fifty, fifty should be enough."
Du Fei stopped and said, "You wait here, I'll go back."
I just said these few words and didn't even take a few steps.
Du Fei returned to the street office, pretended to go back to the office to get money, and took out 100 yuan from his pocket.
Although I don't know what kind of disease Lao Yang's wife has, if she is in her twenties or thirties, Lei Laoliu can help her and she won't have to come to him.
After a while, Du Fei came back and handed Mr. Lei sixty unity cards directly. "Old Lei, you and Lao Yang are old brothers. Please help me with this matter. People are more important than anything else."
When Lei Laoliu got the money, his hands trembled.
In fact, he went to Du Fei with the intention of seeking medical treatment in a hurry.
He knew that Du Fei had the ability to help with this, but whether he was willing or not, he had no idea.
After all, Du Fei and Lao Yang really didn't have much of a friendship except for the occasional meeting during the days when they were building a house, and they barely even knew each other.
In this situation, Lei Laoliu also felt awkward borrowing money from others.
But he came anyway.
Firstly, there are not many people who can spend so much money in one breath; secondly, he also wants to test Du Fei's character and magnanimity, so that he can follow Du Fei in the future.
work.
Although Du Fei didn't know what Lei Laoliu was thinking.
But throwing out one hundred yuan in one breath was actually for Lei Laoliu to see.
The meaning is obvious. Lao Yang, who has nothing to do with me, will help me if he encounters any trouble. If something happens to you, Lei Laoliu, there is no need to say anything!
To a certain extent, it can be regarded as buying horse bones for thousands of dollars.
