1983 Small Island, Starting From a Large Farmer

At this wine party, Li Duoyu also rarely drank too much, and everyone put their arms around each other and started to fight each other.

 After drinking, some leaders in the county were still rushing to pay the bill, but their way of paying the bill was quite special. They went directly to the restaurant owner to place the order, that is, they wrote a IOU.

This reminded Li Duoyu of his previous life. There was actually a restaurant in their town that these leaders kept placing orders for, and he owed hundreds of thousands of dollars.

 As a result, after a new leader was appointed, he immediately refused to acknowledge the debt, and eventually the restaurant closed down.

Even if the hotel owner went to the imperial capital, he couldn't solve the problem. Later, it seemed that he couldn't even leave the town. As soon as he went out, someone would immediately receive the news.

Li Duoyu saw the boss's grimace but helpless look, so he settled the bill in cash before they placed the order.

Li Duoyu's behavior of grabbing the bill made several leaders a little unhappy: "Director Li, you are looking down on us. Boss Xu, please return the money quickly."

 Li Duoyu smiled: "No, how can I have the nerve to ask my boss to pay for it? After all, I am also the boss of a company. If this gets out, everyone will think I am stingy."

The hotel owner smiled with a smile on his face and said helpfully: "This young boss is very reasonable. If the boss has no money, why should he be called boss?"

After paying the money, several comrades also proposed to go to a nightclub to dance and sing, but Li Duoyu politely refused on the grounds that he wanted to go home and pay the public rations.

Although Li Duoyu is a little disgusted with these people, it is understandable. After all, the general environment is like this, and everyone follows the same example, and the best practices are followed by others.

 After drinking.

Li Duoyu and Chen Jianghe were sitting next to an inland river in the county. Chen Zhishu felt very uncomfortable in his stomach. He dug his throat with his hands and vomited out everything he had eaten tonight.

After vomiting, Chen Jianghe felt as if he had saved his life. He sat depressed on the stone steps by the river: "Why do you have to drink every time at dinner? I vomited out everything I ate. It was nothing." "

He comes from a poor family, and he may not be able to have such a sumptuous meal every few months. Normally, he would never dare to think about the dishes in it.

Although there is no famous dish like Buddha Jumping Over the Wall, there are seven-star tripe, white chopped chicken, egg drop beef soup, and fried Xi Shi tongue. They are all not cheap dishes.

Li Duoyu, who had long been used to strangers, said calmly: "It is easiest to tell the truth after drinking, and it is also easiest to enhance feelings."

Chen Jianghe was silent for a while and looked at Li Duoyu curiously: "It's strange. You drink more than me. Why do you seem to be fine at all?"

Li Duoyu smiled, he was covered in secrets all over his body, and even if he drank, he did not dare to completely let go.

However, in this era where "Xun Qin Ji" has not even been published yet, even if he said that he had traveled through time after drinking, these people may not know what time travel means.

Li Duoyu said casually: "Because I am blessed by Mazu."

Chen Jianghe snorted: "I believe you, Mazu will bless your drinking ability? I found that you especially like to use Mazu as a shield."

“Zhishu Chen, you can’t say that, Mazu is not our shield, she is our goddess.”

At this moment, from the second-floor window behind them, a woman yelled and cursed: "Goddess, you are a bastard. If you want to vomit somewhere else, it stinks so much. Don't chat downstairs in my house at night." "

After speaking, a basin of water was poured directly towards the two of them. Li Duoyu, who was still awake, dodged in time.

  Chen Jianghe, who was a little drunk, was half-drenched with something that might have been bath water. He cursed angrily on the spot: "Dian Po, come down here. Do you know who we are? You dare to pour bath water on us."

"Whoever you are, if you disturb my sleep, I will splash on you. If you don't leave, I will just **** on you."

Li Duoyu was also dumbfounded. Although he had long heard that women in the county had stronger personalities, he had seen it today.

Although they were wrong about this, this woman did cross the line. Li Duoyu was not good at swearing, but when it came to hurting others, he naturally learned a lot under the influence of his second sister-in-law.

“Oh my, the bath water is so smelly, it’s been how many days since I took a shower, and the woman is so dirty, I think it’s because there is no man in the family, or your man doesn’t want to sleep with you at all.”

When Li Duoyu said this, he didn't expect someone to respond in the residential building behind him. An old man smiled and said: "Young man, you really guessed it right. She really doesn't want a man."

 Perhaps Li Duoyu really stepped on the opponent's tail this time. The man was so angry that his face turned black and he turned around.

Li Duoyu realized something was wrong and quickly pulled Chen Jianghe away. Sure enough, as soon as they ran out, a chamber pot was thrown at them.

Seeing this scene, Chen Jianghe was instantly relieved. If he were splashed with something from the chamber pot, he would definitely be sick for several months.

Chen Jianghe looked at Li Duoyu in front of him and couldn't help but give a thumbs up: "Director Li, you are still the best."

 But just after I finished speaking, maybe because I smelled the smell of those yellow and white things, I lay down by the river and continued to vomit.

Li Duoyu patted his back and said, "If you don't know how to drink, drink less next time. There is no need to hurt your body."

Chen Jianghe sighed: "I can't help myself. Everyone present today is my leader. They come to toast, do I dare not to drink? Besides, the atmosphere is good today. If I don't drink, it will be really disrespectful."

After Chen Jianghe finished vomiting, he couldn't help but said: "To be honest, Director Li, I really envy you."

Li Duoyu smiled bitterly, and with the help of alcohol, he said: "I have nothing to envy. I have worked hard for many years to get this **** luck. Even now, it feels like I'm living in a dream. I live on tenterhooks every day, fearing that I will wake up from this dream.”

Chen Jianghe didn't understand a little, but it didn't matter. He told Li Duoyu his story for the first time.

“I came from Digua County. The village is very poor and our area is not suitable for growing rice. In the past, the whole village grew sweet potatoes.

 At least you have seafood on your island, but we have grown up eating sweet potatoes and are really afraid of eating them.

When I was a child, I vowed that I would get ahead and live a good life, so I studied harder than others.

 But after I started working, I realized that this was not the case.

 Speaking of which, the reason why I agreed to County Magistrate Zhang to go to your Xiasha Village was because he was willing to help me. However, unexpectedly, I stepped into a big trap. Now no one is willing to transfer me back. "

Chen Jianghe gritted his teeth and said: "If the cleanup had been cleaner and everyone was on the same starting line, I wouldn't have lost so miserably."

Li Duoyu was surprised and said: "You dare to say this, so you are not afraid of being taken away for questioning."

“I am quite conservative, but those students are more ruthless now and dare to say anything.”

Li Duoyu will not continue this topic. If a person lives long enough, he can see some things more clearly.

 People of every generation are not satisfied with the present. People living in this era are full of complaints about this era, but Li Duoyu feels that the current era is the fairest era.

As long as you are willing to study, we will arrange a job for you. As long as you are willing to start a business, the government will provide you with support and subsidies.

  Li Duoyu patted him on the shoulder: "Work hard and gild Xiasha Village for a few years. There will still be opportunities in the future."

Chen Jianghe smiled and said, "Then it depends on Director Li whether he will give me this opportunity."

 “You have to fight for the opportunity yourself.”

“I understand, Director Li, I will work hard.”

At this moment, a woman about the same age as Chen Jianghe walked over. She was not stunning in appearance, but had a good temperament.

When Chen Jianghe saw this woman, he was instantly nervous and turned into a fool: "How did you know I was here?"

Li Duoyu has heard him say that there is a target in the county, and the woman in front of him should be his target.

The woman said: "I heard from my colleagues that you went drinking with the boss. I searched nearby for a while before I found you."

Chen Jianghe scratched his head and said, "I drank too much today, so I didn't dare to look for you immediately." The woman frowned slightly, then looked at Li Duoyu with a smile: "Director Li, thank you for taking such good care of Jiang He."

Li Duoyu smiled and said, "Is that Zhang Xiuqin?"

 The woman was a little surprised: "Director Li knows me."

Li Duoyu nodded and said, "Zhishu Chen never leaves your side. He always talks about how nice you are to everyone he meets. It's hard to even recognize him."

Zhang Xiuqin blushed slightly and glared at Chen Jianghe: "Don't keep talking about me outside."

Chen Jianghe chuckled: "No, I only said that once or twice."

In the middle of the night, two men and one woman were walking by the river. The atmosphere became a bit awkward. Li Duoyu, who turned into a light bulb, quickly said: "Party Secretary Chen, there will be a commendation meeting the day after tomorrow. Why don't you just do it in the next two days?" Stay in the county seat so that we can be supported when the time comes.”

 Chen Jianghe thought for a while.

“Then I’ll bother Director Li for the next two days.”

Just before leaving, Chen Jianghe turned around and gave Li Duoyu a thumbs up. He felt that Director Li was really capable.

Li Duoyu finished his drink on the fishing boat before sailing back to the island. Now, no matter how late it is, as long as he can go home, he will naturally go home.

Unexpectedly, after returning home, Zhou Xiaoying didn't go to bed. Instead, she sat on the desk and continued to study English.

 Li Duoyu couldn't help but ask: "Are you planning to become an English teacher?"

Zhou Xiaoying smiled but did not answer. She felt that Duoyu's business would definitely grow bigger in the future, and she could help him better by learning more.

She never wanted to go through the embarrassing situation of having to look up the meaning of an English word in a dictionary on the spot.

"I made some chicken soup and porridge for you. If you want to drink, just eat some at night. Your stomach will feel better."

Li Duoyu couldn't help but hugged her from behind. Just as he thought about being dishonest, Zhou Xiaoying became angry on the spot: "Hurry up and take a shower, your whole body is full of the smell of cigarette and alcohol."

"By the way, you've been too busy recently. I have something to tell you. My sister's grocery store will officially open tomorrow. You have to go and support it."

 “That’s for sure.”

 In the end, my sister listened to his advice and did not open a store near the dock or school. Instead, she temporarily converted the first floor of her house into a store.

 The location is not very good though.

But Li Shuihua discovered that there were many benefits. First of all, it saved a sum of money on renting a store.

Now, she can open a shop and take care of her three children. This place is very close to her grandma’s house. If something happens, they can take care of each other.

 The children can also play together. When she is busy, Aniang can help him take care of the baby.

 Ajie’s grocery store sells different things from those sold in the supply and marketing cooperative.

 The supply and marketing cooperative sells more cloth, clocks, light bulbs, shoes, melon seeds, candies, etc., as well as some soy sauce, flour, rice, etc.

 Ajie’s grocery store is not big. Under Li Duoyu’s suggestion, it mainly sells children’s items.

Workbooks, pencil cases, pencils, etc., as well as various candies, melon seeds, and various small packages of snacks.

Even before the store officially opened, Li Haoran, the little chubby boy, went to Aunt Shuihua’s house every day and wished he could live in the store directly.

In fact, Li Duoyu especially likes to eat the "cat ears" snack in her store, which tastes crunchy and delicious.

 It’s also good to drink with.

Of course, in addition to snacks, Ajie also sells some cigarettes, beer, cola, soy sauce, shrimp oil, etc., which are small but exquisite. Ajie does not sell those large items.

The main reason is that purchasing goods is troublesome. If you want to sell large items, you have to send a special ship to transport them. By then, you may not be able to recover the shipping fee.

My brother-in-law also took two days off because of the business of opening a shop. During these two days, my brother-in-law Chen Dongqing took charge of the shrimp farm first.

On the day when the grocery store officially opened, Li Duoyu simply became a salesperson in order to support his sister.

Uncle Mao also shouted on the radio: "A new grocery store has opened in our village. There is a big discount on the first day of opening. It doesn't make any money. Everything is 20% off. If you want to buy something, hurry up and have a look at Li Shuihua's store." ”

Although the location is not good, after such a broadcast, many villagers came and saw Li Duoyu working as a salesperson there.

 After everyone arrived at the store, they started buying the items regardless of whether they were useful or not.

Some people bought three bowls even though they had no shortage of bowls at home, and some people still made soy sauce even though they had no shortage of soy sauce.

 Some people are usually reluctant to buy snacks for their children, but this time they bought half a catty of melon seeds.

Within half a day of opening, most of the items in the store were sold.

 The smile on Sister A’s face never stopped, and she kept saying hello to the villagers who came to buy things.

 “Walk slowly and come back next time.”

 But she also knew very well that the reason why the business was so good was because his brother helped him sell things in the store. It would be difficult for there to be so many people in the future.

On this day, Li Shuihua's small grocery store was doing very well, but the supply and marketing cooperative seemed a little deserted.

 Female salespersons from several supply and marketing cooperatives said: “It’s so unfair to us that Director Li is giving his sister a platform like this.”

A salesperson named Zhang Li said: "That's his sister. If you don't give her a platform, how can you give us a platform?"

After what she said, everyone thought it made sense. One of the salespersons sighed: "Sister Li, do you think our cooperative can still be a contractor?"

Zhang Li shook her head: "It's better not to contract. I heard from people that after many places were contracted, the new boss immediately laid off the original sales staff and replaced them all with his own people."

“It’s so cruel, it’s better not to contract. At least we are still receiving state wages now.”

“It’s only a matter of time before we are contracted. The general environment is like this. Have you noticed that the director of our cooperative has not been in our store for a long time.”

 “It seems to be true.”

A female salesperson named Chunli frowned and said: "It's best to wait until I get married before contracting out, otherwise it will be difficult to get married without a job."

"Chunli, the condition of the stone next to your house is very good. Not only is the family rich, but they are quite motivated. Why don't you try to get along with him?"

Chunli said with a dark face: "What a virgin, you still don't know who that stone likes."

 “Who do you like?”

Chunli said helplessly: "Ever since he was a child, he has liked older people, those who take care of children, the kind who are very skinny and don't have much flesh on their bodies."

“You’re talking about Teacher Shanshan, but isn’t she not divorced yet? Isn’t this disorderly behavior?” (End of Chapter)
