Life in a quiet village in Xianshan

After spending almost a quarter of an hour in the store and buying several cans of malted milk, two packs of peach cakes, and two bags of milk powder, Gu Siwei carried the basket and walked towards the logistics yard where Wu Daorong worked.

As soon as we arrived at the gate, we were about to say hello to the gatekeeper. Unexpectedly, the uncle opened the window of the reception room with a smile on his face and smiled very kindly at Gu Siwei.

"Comrade Xiao Gu is here, coming to see Director Wu, right?" The uncle smiled cordially.

Gu Siwei couldn't help but twitching on his face when he saw it, and thought to himself: Who would have thought that such an unattractive old man at the door could actually have the money to collect many antiques?

Gu Siwei felt a little itchy when he thought of antiques.

"Here, Uncle Tao, you are on duty today." Gu Siwei smiled and walked over, showing a little enthusiasm. He leaned on the window sill and put the snacks on the table.

Old man Tao showed a little displeasure when he saw it, but he still swept a bag of worthless snacks into his drawer.

"You young man, do the same thing to me." Old Tao said with a smile: "Hurry up and go in. Director Wu has just arrived. If you are any later, you will have to go out."

"Thanks".

Gu Siwei patted the window with his hand and walked in through the small door next to it.

After entering the courtyard, Gu Siwei went directly to Wu Daorong's office. When he got to the door, he knocked on the door. Hearing that there was no movement inside, he didn't open the door and went directly to the cafeteria.

When I arrived at the cafeteria, I saw Wu Daorong wearing high-top water boots checking the fruits and vegetables that had just arrived this morning.

The place where the vegetables were washed was a little noisy, Wu Daorong's voice was loud, and he seemed a little unhappy. I don't know who sent the food but it was bad or what. In short, Wu Daorong had a look of displeasure on his face.

The few people being disciplined next to them lowered their heads and looked submissive on the surface, but if you look closely, you will find that these people are in a fugue.

There is no way, these people are all regular workers now, and there is no question of whether they should be fired or not. Anyway, for them, as long as they are still working in the factory, their wages will not be much less.

Wu Daorong saw Gu Siwei, and after giving these people a few words of scolding, he walked towards Gu Siwei.

"What good things are you going to send here today?"

Wu Daorong was quite happy to see Gu Siwei. Of course, cousin and cousin were just words. They were not real cousins, it was just an excuse.

Gu Siwei didn't pay attention to this point. The things he delivered every time were of high quality and quantity. A serious person like Wu Daorong naturally likes to deal with a worry-free person like Gu Siwei.

"I don't have anything to send today. I came here to ask for your help."

So Gu Siwei told him about wanting potatoes.

When he heard that Gu Siwei wanted dozens of kilograms of potatoes, Wu Daorong's expression became a little serious, and he said to Gu Siwei: "There are potatoes, but these potatoes are food for the workers. I don't have the ability to make a difference."

Well!

Gu Siwei was stunned by Wu Daorong's words. He thought for a moment and said: "It doesn't take dozens of kilograms, just twenty kilograms. I didn't take it from you for nothing. I'll exchange it with you, or else take it." Do you have enough money to buy it?”

Wu Daorong said: "That's not something I can decide. This is workers' food. What will it cost if I sell it to you?"

Gu Siwei almost said why you are such a fool!

But when the words came to his lips, he still held back.

Although Gu Siwei thinks Wu Daorong's business-like attitude is very good, it would be weird if he felt better if he applied this attitude to himself.

"It's okay to exchange it for a piglet, so that you can take advantage of it. How about exchanging five pounds of potatoes for one pound of pork?"

Gu Siwei had no choice but to make new suggestions.

Having dealt with Wu Daorong several times, Gu Siwei knows that as long as this guy refuses you, it is impossible to force him to do it. Although this guy looks like a fat translator and has a traitorous face, as long as he says If you say it out loud, you can grind it however you want, he is more patient than you.

"There's no one to entertain in the factory these days, and we don't want piglets. I can't even raise them here."

Wu Daorong's words made Gu Siwei almost roll his eyes.

"Then what can you say to get potatoes?" Gu Siwei said, suppressing the small flame in his heart.

Wu Daorong thought for a while but still shook his head: "I can't exchange the potatoes here for you. They are public property. When they come into my hands, I will ensure the workers' food. Let alone dozens of kilograms. Not one less!”

"Oh, that's it, I'm fine."

Gu Siwei was really a little angry with this guy, so after saying that, he turned around and left.

As for the gifts I brought, of course I wouldn't give them out. After all the negotiations, I still gave him a gift, including an egg!

I originally felt that I was 70-80% sure, if not 100% certain, but now this matter has caused trouble. Not only did I not get the potatoes, but I also made him very angry.

Wu Daorong watched Gu Siwei leave, and when Gu Siwei was about to arrive at the door, he shouted to Gu Siwei: "Then I won't send you off."

Gu Siwei didn't even look back and just walked out the door.

After leaving the gate, I turned around and found that Wu Daorong had already gone back.

Nima!

Gu Siwei cursed.

It was hopeless to find potatoes through Wu Daorong, so Gu Siwei thought about finding his apprentice.

When I asked Qiao Yitong's class, his colleagues said that Qiao Yitong had gone to the provincial capital to study and would not be back until the day after tomorrow. I went to see Qiao Yitong's father, but found that he had gone to the district for a meeting. I don’t know exactly when I will come back.

After leaving the factory gate, Gu Siwei's desire for a phone had never been so strong.

Two people in a row were thrown into the air, so how could he not miss the developed communication methods decades later.

The best way to find someone at this time is the phone. As for installing a phone in the village, Gu Siwei really doesn’t have the ability. Even if he is rich, there are still people who will take care of Gu Siwei. Besides, there is no electricity in the town, and there are only a few in the county. There is electricity in the place, and a telephone is installed in Shimo Village. It is estimated that it will last for a thousand years.

Dreaming all the way, Gu Siwei walked towards Hu Yanqiu's house.

When we arrived at the door of the family area, by chance, we saw Hu Yanqiu pushing a bicycle out.

"Hu Yanqiu!"

Gu Siwei saw that Hu Yanqiu didn't see him and was about to step on the bicycle, so he called out to her.

Hearing Gu Siwei's voice, Hu Yanqiu got out of the car, turned his head and glanced in the direction of the sound, his face filled with joy unconsciously, but soon the smile was filled with a little embarrassment. It was back to its original appearance before it was discovered.

"Gu Siwei, why are you here when you are free? All the farm work at home is done?" Hu Yanqiu asked.

Gu Siwei smiled and reached out to pat the basket on his back: "I'm not here to give you some local products. Oh, by the way, where are you going? I went to your unit in the morning and they said you won't go to work today."

"I have an afternoon shift. I have something to do now. Why don't you wait for me to come back?" Hu Yanqiu pursed his lips, paused and said to Gu Siwei.

Gu Siwei smiled and said: "We are already at the door. You can't let me take it back. Let's go!"

As she said this, Gu Si grabbed the handle of Hu Yanqiu's bicycle and prepared to use some force to take the bicycle back.

"I really have something! It's something I'm very anxious about. Why don't you take it back first? In fact, you don't have to bring these things to me. I have nothing to repay you..." Hu Yanqiu said.

Now Gu Siwei sounded a little uncomfortable. He looked at Hu Yanqiu and said: "You are not feeling right today. What's wrong? Come on, don't bother me here. I brought everything. It's not a good thing. There is a bag of persimmons and a bag of walnuts. Your mother doesn’t have them at home. If your mother is at home, I will send them to you.”

"I'm really not here!" Hu Yanqiu didn't dare to look at Gu Siwei at this moment.

"Forget it!"

Gu Siwei directly took off the basket from behind, took out two things and hung them directly on the back seat of Hu Yanqiu's bicycle.

The two pockets were about the same size. In fact, they didn't weigh much together. They weighed 13 or 14 pounds. After Gu Siwei put them away, he patted them on the back seat.

"Okay, just take it with you, I'm going back!"

After Gu Siwei finished speaking, he smiled at Hu Yanqiu, put the basket on his back again and turned to leave.

"Gu Siwei".

At this moment, Hu Yanqiu felt that his heart was about to burst. When he saw Gu Siwei turning to leave with a smile on his face, it seemed that something was following Gu Siwei, so he subconsciously screamed.

"What are you doing?"

Gu Siwei stood still and turned around to look at Hu Yanqiu: "Aren't you busy? Go quickly. I still have something to do here. Alas, it's all trouble when I get here."

She gently shook her hand at Hu Yanqiu, signaling her to go about her business.

Hu Yanqiu kept watching Gu Siwei until he was out of sight, just looking straight at him.

Gu Siwei didn't know that at this moment, a girl's heart was all about him, and he thought he and Hu Yanqiu were good buddies. Not to mention lovers, there is not even a word of love in it.

It's not that Gu Siwei is a bigoted person, it's not that Hu Yanqiu isn't beautiful, but that Gu Siwei doesn't have the heart to think about such things. Unlike today's young people in their twenties, in Gu Siwei's time, it was really rare for people in their twenties to talk to their friends about normal marriage. In one sentence, he was still a child.

Now Gu Siwei's heart is entirely focused on his own little life. The house is ready, and the land will be planted immediately. The next step is to arrange some fruit trees, um, plant two tea plants. When he is free, he will go to the window to Sit down, make a pot of tea, put some fresh fruits on the table, drink tea and eat fruits, and spend the day leisurely.

This is the life that Lao Gu wants to live. Marrying a wife, having several children, and having three big circles in his mind all day long. Even if he wants to jump into this pit of fire, Lao Gu still thinks about after he is thirty-five.

After separating from Hu Yanqiu, Gu Siwei wandered to the spontaneous vegetable market again, wondering if he could buy some potatoes. Unfortunately, it was just as he thought. Where can you buy staple food now? Whoever has potatoes doesn't keep them for home use and sell them for money. To be honest, money is of little use now.

After coming out of the vegetable market, Gu Siwei really had no choice but to go back to Wu Daorong. This time he decided that if he couldn't get it, he would just borrow some. As for how to borrow, he would just borrow it like that.

After a bad day, when Gu Siwei returned to the small courtyard of the canteen, he couldn't help but feel happy, because he saw several small light trucks queuing up at the entrance of the courtyard, seemingly waiting to enter the courtyard to unload.

One of the small light trucks was filled with sacks. The sacks had a protruding shape. What could they contain if they weren't potatoes?

So with a gentle wave of his hand, the bag of potatoes on the top of the car arrived in Gu Siwei's space. In the era without surveillance, Gu Siwei felt that he really loved it.
