Siheyuan: Starting from the promotion of an engineer

Chapter 137 Yan Bugui's Abacus Goes Far

"He third uncle, you don't have class today?"

When Aunt Yi saw a person with her head down, she burrowed in and took a closer look and recognized it was Yan Bugui.

I thought you would come to grab the solar cooker too?
I was going to buy it for Huairu, Zhuzi and the deaf old lady to use it. If you bought it, even Lin Zhen would not be willing to use it.

Aunt Yi grabbed Yan Bugui's clothes, "Third uncle, you also come to buy a solar cooker?"

Yan Bugui smiled awkwardly: "No, no, I'm here to buy light bulbs, light bulbs."

As he said that, he withdrew his clothes and drilled in.

Aunt Er pushed Yan Bugui away, "Old Yan! What are you squeezing? You can't wait until tomorrow to buy light bulbs? We are all here to buy solar cookers, so don't make trouble!"

Yan Bugui was staggered by the push, and was pushed out again before he could see what the solar cooker looked like as soon as he squeezed in.

"Hey! His second aunt, I, I don't know as much as you!"

As soon as the salesperson of the supply and marketing agency started queuing up, he arrived at the counter with six legs and feet.

This time, even the first aunt and the second aunt didn't grab it.

Yan Bugui complained: "Look, look, don't let me squeeze, didn't you buy it too?"

Aunt Er curled her lips and said: "If you don't buy it, wait for the next time. It's you, Lao Yan, don't you buy light bulbs? No one is crowded now, why don't you go buy it?"

Yan Bugui closed his eyes, snorted coldly and said, "I don't want to buy it again!"

When he got home, Yan Bu was so expensive that he couldn't breathe.

"It's all the fault of Lao Yi and Lao Liu's daughter-in-law. I was able to squeeze in first, but they pushed me out. Fortunately, they didn't buy it. It's really hurting others and not benefiting myself!"

The third aunt persuaded: "Forget it, anyway, we didn't get any in the yard. In the afternoon, after Yan Jiecheng and Yu Li got off work, let them make an appointment in the factory."

Yan Bugui said: "It may not be possible to make an internal decision. You haven't seen it. How many people robbed it just now. The rolling mill must first meet the social needs?"

really.

After get off work, the third aunt mentions the appointment.

Yu Li waved her hands again and again: "Don't even think about it, Director Yang said that each batch of goods can only be assigned a quota by default, how can it be our turn?"

Yan Jiecheng said: "Dad, if you really want to buy it, it should be easy to ask Lin Zhen for help."

Yan Bugui said: "You are familiar with Lin Zhen, go and tell me about it."

Yan Jiecheng shook his head and said, "I don't want to mention it. I just asked someone to arrange me and Yu Li into the rolling mill. I haven't thanked him yet. I'm asking for this again. I'm too embarrassed to open my mouth. You should go by yourself."

"I'll go and I'll go. It's not that difficult. Isn't it just a word from him?"

Yan Bugui arrived at Lin Zhen's house and explained the purpose of his visit.

Lin Zhen smiled and said, "Master San, I just used up my default quota and bought one for Aunt Liu. I don't have one myself. It's useless if you beg me."

Yan Bugui smiled and said: "I can't, don't fool the third uncle, I know your ability, ten sets and eight sets are no problem."

"You really don't hurt your back when you stand and talk. How can I have that ability? Besides, I will find a way to buy one for you. What about Uncle One and Uncle Two? You are all the uncles in the courtyard, and there is also a deaf old lady. The ancestors in the courtyard, everyone in the courtyard has come to ask me to buy it, who will I refuse?"

Yan Bugui smiled and said: "You are right, but don't worry, I will never say that you helped."

Lin Zhen spread his hands and said: "The factory stipulates that there is only one default quota for a family. Before the expansion of production, only one worker can be designated by default every day, but the default is fair. If you ask Yan Jiecheng to sign up, maybe you will get a number."

Yan Bugui was surprised and said: "That's not right, Yan Jiecheng and Yu Li said it's not their turn at all."

"Uh... did they say that?"

"Ok!"

"Oh, then I misremembered. In this way, I will tell Director Chen tomorrow and ask him to add the names of Yan Jiecheng and Yu Li to the default list. Wouldn't the chance of being selected be doubled?"

"Okay, then, I will trouble you, don't worry, I won't let you help in vain, my family saved soy sauce this month, and you will take the non-staple food book and type it later."

"No, no, I'll just mention it in passing. I can't guarantee whether I can choose it."

"It's okay, you just need to mention it."

Yan Bugui told Yan Jiecheng and Yu Li when he got home.

"I said hello to Lin Zhen, and begged him to add both of your names to the default list. The solution is Yu Li. If you are drawn, I will buy it back quickly and use it one day earlier to save coal."

Yan Jiecheng and Yu Li looked at each other speechlessly, they didn't want to make an appointment for their father.

The money will definitely not come in his hands, and he will probably have to pay for it himself.

Otherwise, the two of them would have been able to add names.

Yan Jiecheng pursed his lips and said nothing.

Yu Li said: "Dad, a solar cooker costs 25 yuan, how do you calculate the money?"

Yan Bugui smiled and said: "We haven't divided the pot yet, we all eat at the same table, so it's okay for you two to buy it back?"

Yu Li said disapprovingly, "We just changed jobs, and our salary won't be paid until next month. Where can we get 25 yuan?"

Yan Bugui said: "Didn't you save all your previous wages? You have been eating for half a year, and buying a solar cooker counts as joining the family. Besides, isn't it also used by our family when you buy it?"

Yan Jiecheng said unhappily: "Dad, you can't say that. After all, Yu Li and I don't use it much. We eat in the factory at noon whenever we go to work. At most, we share the solar cooker half and half. Can't we let all of it out? "

Yu Li said: "Why is it [-]/[-]? Anyone who wants to buy it will sell it. Anyway, I won't buy it."

Yan Jiecheng nodded and said, "Yes, Dad, Yu Li and I don't need a solar cooker, so we don't want to buy one. If you want me to make an appointment for you, you can get the money first."

Yan Bugui stared angrily and said, "You don't need to buy it?"

"Need not!"

"If you don't need it, don't follow along. Anyway, the salary of the two of you is high now, and the sum is more than mine. You should start your own cooking!"

Yu Li said: "If you share the pot, you will share the pot. Let's go, let's not buy the solar cooker!"

After talking, the two got up and left, going to Lin Zhen's house.

"Hey! You..."

"Okay, old Yan, don't talk about it, since Yan Jiecheng and Yu Li came to the rolling mill, they just want to share the pot with us."

"how do you know?"

"Hmph, didn't you see that the few times Yu Li wanted to eat good food, did Yan Jiecheng exchange money with Lin Zhen to buy it and eat it at his house? That's because she was afraid that her younger siblings would eat more."

Yan Bugui let out a long breath of anger.

Yan Jiefang pursed his lips and said, "If you know how to do calculations, didn't you learn it from Dad?"

Yan Jiekuang smiled and said, "It's good for the big brother and sister-in-law to share the pot, I can eat more."

Yan Jiedi said: "If you think too much, my dad will definitely reduce the daily amount."

Sure enough, Yan Bugui said indifferently: "Let's divide it up, save us, son of a bitch, from now on, the daily cooking amount will be reduced by two adults."

"What about the solar cooker?"

"Of course you have to buy it. You have to figure it out. It costs 25 yuan. If you use it for ten years, you can use it for nearly [-] days without cloudy and rainy days every year. You can use it for one meal a day, saving a briquette of eight taels." No problem, multiply three hundred briquettes by ten, how much money can you save?"

The third aunt murmured: "It's a saving, but the time is too long."

Yan Bugui proudly said: "You, I still haven't reconciled the accounts. With the development of the economy, the price of coal will increase, but the sun doesn't want money, so use it as you like! In summer, no one cares about the water you want to burn for a day! Hehehe ..."

Yan Jiecheng and Yu Li went to Lin Zhen's house, and said happily as soon as they entered the door: "Oh, don't worry!"

Lou Xiaoe asked with a smile, "What's so happy?"

Yan Jiecheng said proudly: "The family is separated, and I don't have to eat a fixed amount of food with my father every day."

Lin Zhen frowned and said, "Isn't it because the third uncle came to ask me to get the solar cooker just now?"

Yu Li said: "That's the thing, my dad is really interesting, let us pay for it, what do you think!"

Yan Jiecheng said: "Now the combined salary of Yu Li and I is almost 60, it's time to live our own life."

Lin Zhen smiled and said, "Don't blame me because of this incident, the third uncle, saying that I interfered with the separation of your families."

Yu Li curled her lips and said, "It's too late for him to be happy. Listen, how happy he is smiling in the room!"

When Lin Zhen heard it, he really said, "Well, I have done a good deed!"

Yan Jiecheng said: "Lin Zhen, don't ask Director Chen to write my and Yu Li's names if my dad doesn't pay for it. We don't make an official decision not to buy a solar cooker."

"I don't care about your affairs, you can apply by yourself after discussing it."

……

When leaving get off work the next day, Lin Zhen took away the first solar cooker that the workers could order.

No one complained about this, after all, it was developed by others.

No one wants it, and one must be given to others.

But Lin Zhen was going to give it to Aunt Liu.

In the street office, Aunt Liu really took care of Lou Xiaoe.

Lin Zhen and his wife know kindness and often visit Uncle Liu and Aunt Liu.

Seeing that Lin Zhen brought the solar cooker, Aunt Liu frowned and said, "Hey! Silly boy, why don't you send everything here? Only when you have it yourself can you consider giving it to others. No, I don't want it."

Lin Zhen smiled and said: "Xiao'e and I don't need this. We go to work every day, and there is no one at home at noon. We don't want to waste the quota, so I brought it to you."

Uncle Liu smiled and said, "Oh, this is the solar cooker. People in the yard are talking about it these days."

Aunt Liu said, "What's the matter, do you still want to stay? You can't ask for the child's things."

"I gave the money, and the child is here, can you let him take it away?"

Uncle Liu said, he went to the house and took out 50 yuan, "Lin Zhen, take it away and buy something for Xiao'e, hey, where is it?"

Aunt Liu curled her lips and said, "Wait until you come out, people have already left, forget it, this kid won't ask for money, I know his background, good boy, we have to protect him."

Uncle Liu nodded and smiled, "Don't worry, just rely on your natal nephews and our children, as long as Xiaolin Xiao'e doesn't move away, no one in this area can talk about Xiao'e's background."

A few days later, Xu Damao went to the countryside to show a movie and came back.

He found Lin Zhen with a happy face.

"Lin Gong, I received a painting for one yuan. The painting depicts two house sparrows eating jujube branches. It's so beautiful. Take a look!"

Because of Lin Zhen's instructions, Xu Damao did not dare to deliberately buy antiques.

But every time he goes to the countryside to show a movie, he pretends to be selfless and condolences to the lonely old people in the village.

Every now and then you come across one that's in stock.

This time he was a widowed old man surnamed Sun, whose children had gone overseas for more than ten years.

He was left alone in the village. It is said that he escaped from the famine and was not from the village.

As far as Xu Damao is concerned, his ability to fool people is really high.

The old man who hadn't been cared for all year round was moved to tears by his sincerity.

Xu Damao didn't say anything when he was at his house, and when Xu Damao finished the movie and was about to leave.

The old man came after him and gave him the painting.

Lin Zhen took it over and took a look, and was instantly shocked by the monogram of "one person in the world" on the corner.
