Era: Start as a buyer

"Dad, please come forward and call out the leaders of the town. I have wine, vegetables, and some steamed buns here. Our factory is a big one in the urban area. There are breeding plants and meat factories in the urban area. There is no shortage of food. Yes, but it’s just like these wild animals in the mountains. I can buy them without paying any money, and I can trade them with other things from the town.”

"What do you mean by this? Please tell me carefully and how to redeem it."

"It's very simple. Do you think wild boar from the mountains is better or domestic pork?"

"Of course it's domestically raised. The wild boar meat tastes okay, but it's a bit woody and not fat. That's not what you mean~~"

Hearing Luo Cheng's question, Accountant Zhao realized that if it was such a trade-in, the prey in the mountains could be exchanged for pork or even other things. The leaders of the town must be fine, but if it doesn't work, they just hand over some pork to the purchasing station. They don't take anything to sell in the town, they just exchange it for something.

"Luo Cheng, are you in charge of this matter? Don't let your side negotiate it. The machine factory has objections."

"Dad, don't worry, I have a purchase certificate. Besides, you may not be able to get much if you go hunting in the mountains. They just have a taste of it in the city. But the trouble is that this exchange method is not a direct exchange. You have to The prey is brought to our factory first, and they calculate it based on the amount first, and then the money is given to your commune, which in turn gives the money to our purchasing department, and we help the commune buy some internal target meat for you."

"Why do we have to go through such a big detour? Why can't we just change it?"

"If it were that easy, I could just carry a pig to exchange for things, and then my job would be easy. There is no exchange of things in the factory, and the system is so rigid. You have to buy things from the commune first, and then the commune goes to Buy the factory’s internal indicators. If I can just get something in exchange, why would I invite the town leaders to drink?”

When Accountant Zhao heard what Luo Cheng said, he took a sip of wine and thought it made sense again. These days, there are many rules that seem to be troublesome when doing things. Take his finance department as an example. Sometimes when purchasing something in town, you can sign for it first and settle the settlement at the end of the month.

In this way of settlement at the end of the month, it is easy for me to owe you money, and because you took something from me, you owe me another debt. Then when it comes time to settle the accounts, for example, my company owes you ten yuan, and your company owes my company fifteen yuan for other things. Originally, you could just give my unit five yuan and settle the account.

But this is not how the Finance Department settles accounts. Instead, you must give me fifteen yuan for the fifteen yuan you owe me, and the ten yuan I owe you is another matter. An account is a process. Even if it is clear that you owe me a lot, I will give you ten yuan to clear the debt, and you can give me another fifteen yuan, but it cannot be directly offset.

Accountant Zhao thought that Luo Cheng's unit might be like this too, not to mention that Luo Cheng was his son-in-law and a native of the town, so it was impossible to deceive the people in the town about this matter.

"Okay, who asked you to be my son-in-law? Just go through the process and I will vouch for you and the town leaders. You, who are good at wine and meat, will entertain them tomorrow and the matter will be guaranteed."

"Then one of us will leave, and the other thing is Qian's business. Let's stop working as her temporary clerk. Let's rest at home for a few days. In a few days, we have to pack up and go back to the city with me."

"It's a small matter. I'll arrange people to go to the brigade to notify you in the afternoon. Qian will stay at home and there is no need to go to work."

When it comes to this, things are basically settled, and you can eat in peace. Accountant Zhao enjoyed this meal. When he left, Luo Cheng asked him to take the fried peanuts with him and told him that he still had several bags. Accountant Zhao has wine at home, so he can take it back and make wine and dinner.

After Accountant Zhao finished eating and left, Zhao Qian was packing up the dishes and preparing to wash them and send them back to the canteen.

While the table was being cleared, Luo Cheng hugged her from behind.

"Qian, let me touch you, let me touch you, you miss me so much."

"Luo Cheng, it's still broad daylight. Don't do this. Take it out."

"Qian, have you missed me these days?"

Zhao Qian, who had not been drinking, turned red when asked this question. It is impossible for a person who has just come into contact with men and women, whether he is a man or a woman, not to think about that matter.

"Luo Cheng, let's go to bed early tonight, or take a shower at night and I'll help you wash yourself. I'm a little scared during the day."

Luo Chengzhen just wanted to touch it, and he didn't think about giving birth to a baby during the day. He was going to find Er Gouzi and Chen Leizi to have dinner at home in the afternoon. Now that I have become a worker, I have to treat them to a meal.

But thinking of them, Luo Cheng also thought of his parents. Although they were a little biased, they were still the ones who raised him. I still have older sisters, and I have joined the work. It is not good to just think about hiring Er Gouzi and Chen Leizi.

Fortunately, I also brought a lot of eggs. I don’t have a pot to cook, but I can bake eggs for dinner.

Luo Cheng stretched his hands out of Zhao Qian's clothes, hugged her and said he would go to his parents' and sister's houses in the afternoon. In the evening, if Er Gouzi and Chen Leizi were invited to drink, they would have to go to their house to inform them and ask Zhao Qian to wash some plates and bowls.

"Luo Cheng, why don't you wait while I wash the dishes, and I'll go with you to your parents and sister's house."

Luo Cheng thought about it and let her go with a bit of reluctance, asking her to wash the dishes first and find something to put the eggs in. My sister's family gives her a packet of fried peanuts with four eggs, but her parents, because there are too few eggs, her sister Luo Yan might not even be able to taste them, so they give her eight eggs in a packet of peanuts.

After Zhao Qian finished washing the dishes, the two set off. It was quite hot to go out at noon, but everyone rested at home at noon. I'll look for people in the afternoon. Even a village is not small, and people don't know where to work.

First, we went to Ergouzi's house. When we saw him, he was enjoying the coolness under the eaves with a piece of straw in his mouth. His grandma didn't know what she was doing in the house.

"Hey, Nariko, hello, sister-in-law, why are you here? Nariko, you are so well-dressed, you look like a city dweller."

"These are the work clothes issued by the factory. I went to work in the city. I came to see you just after I came back. Come to my house to drink and have meat in the evening. I will go see the leper later. It seems that the three of us have not been together for a while. Got together at the same time.”

"No problem, I'll tell my grandma and let her go to the village canteen to eat alone today."

"What you said is a slap in the face. I am married to a wife. I will let you eat your milk with my wife in the evening. The three of us will drink. At most, we should not drink too late. Your milk can bite the flesh." I don’t have a pot at home, so I brought some braised pork from the city.”

"My baby teeth are still good, and I always want to eat meat. So I will take my baby there after I finish work in the afternoon."

"Okay, I can't chat with you today. In addition to looking for leprosy, I also need to go to my sister and my parents' house to deliver some things."

"Here~~ You and your sister-in-law don't leave until you have a drink of water."

"Go away, I'm talking to you so much, and I haven't even seen you move your body. You're not thirsty, otherwise I would have just asked you to get some water."

"I'm not happy to see you, forget it."

"That's it, let's go."

"Wait a minute, Nariko, let's talk alone~~."

Just when Luo Cheng was about to leave with his wife, Ergouzi called out to him again in embarrassment and wanted to talk alone. Luo Cheng motioned to his wife to wait at the door, and then followed Ergouzi into the house.
