Year: I had a good time when I was young

Chapter 43 High investment does not necessarily mean high return

5 catties of stick noodles and 3 catties of white flour made 80 steamed buns, and let him steam the steamed buns all afternoon.

Those who come back from get off work can smell the aroma of Erhemen that fills the yard as soon as they enter the yard.

Fortunately, Erhemen steamed buns are not really affordable for everyone, and compared with meat, no one will feel jealous because of this.

It was almost 6 o'clock in the evening, and the second uncle and others finally drove the carriage to the courtyard.

Regardless of the sound of the carriage, it seems that the speed will be very fast.

But in fact, if you go a long distance, the speed of the carriage is not much faster than walking.

As soon as they met, the second uncle and the others were frightened by Chu Xiangqian, who was wearing a military coat and had a gun hanging from his waist.

Of course, this kind of scare also brings surprises.

It's just that when he greeted and talked with Chu Xiangqian, even Qin Dakui, the captain of the team who had been uncompromising in the forest farm before, had a kind attitude and was a lot more careful.

Before, he thought that Chu Xiangjin City was just working as a temporary worker in the street, but he was equipped with a gun, and his uniform seemed to be of high quality.

He couldn't help muttering in his heart, looking at it like this, the old Chu family has developed again.

The so-called "don't bully the young and poor", seeing that Chu Xiangqian has shown signs of gaining momentum, normal people know how to show favor.

Besides, you don't lose anything to yourself by saying a few nice words.

Chu Xiangqian dressed neatly on purpose to let Qin Dakui and Accountant Jiang know that he had gained a firm foothold in the city.

Walking down the steps of the gate, Chu Xiangqian stretched out his hand, with a bright smile on his face, "Uncle Qin, Accountant Jiang, Second Uncle, Uncle Jiang, please come in quickly, dinner is ready."

After finishing speaking, he nodded to Patriotic and Aimin again, which was regarded as a compliment to them.

Sure enough, the smiles on the faces of the two boys suddenly brightened.

Only then did Qin Dakui and the others come back to their senses, and shook hands with Chu Xiangqian with a smile.

The people in the yard had already seen guests coming to Chu Xiangqian's house, and Chu Xiangqian was wearing a uniform, and they all came up to say hello.

Chu Xiangqian greeted him with a smile on his face, but he was cursing in his heart.

One by one didn't go home to eat, obviously because they wanted to have a meal of wine and food.

But after seeing Xu Damao, Chu Xiangqian's heart moved.

Treating him to a meal and earning him two bottles of good wine is not considered an advantage, is it?

And this kid loves saving face the most.

He waved to Xu Damao with a smile, took his arm, and said to Qin Dakui, "Captain, accountant Jiang, this is Comrade Xu Damao, the projectionist of the rolling mill.

Let's have a drink with him tonight, maybe we can watch movies in our village in the future. "

Xu Damao was overjoyed, this kind of limelight was his favorite.

And it was clearly agreed in the morning that Chu Xiangqian would take him into the mountains to hunt when he went to Linchang Village to show a movie.

Now he said that he would go to the forest farm to show a movie only if the people in the forest farm had a good drink with him.

It was obvious that he was trying to save face and benefit from it.

He even let the captain, accountant and others of Linchang Village remember their favor.

Secretly said that Chu Xiangqian is a friend worth making.

He patted his chest with a smile and promised that he would go to the venue to give a report tomorrow, and he must go to Linchang Village to show a movie in the future.

Qin Dakui and Accountant Jiang were not stupid either. Xu Damao said that they would only play one game because of Chu Xiangqian's face.

If you still want to watch movies in the future, let's see if the village can win over the projectionist Xu.

As for why it is necessary to show movies in the forest farm, the reason is very simple.

When it's time to show a movie, most of the people in the villages within a few miles or more than ten miles will go to watch the movie.

When there are more boys and girls, the marriage of girls and boys in the forest farm will be much easier.

And it is also a good thing to save face in which village to show the movie.

The grassroots often value face the most.

Busily stretched out his hand and shook it firmly with Xu Damao, "Comrade projectionist, we don't have anything else in our village, but there are a lot of mountain delicacies and wild game. Keeping them will make you satisfied with your food and leave you happily."

This is too straightforward, it is equivalent to saying that the food is delicious and delicious, and you will not leave empty-handed when you leave.

But this is how it is in the local area these days.

Even the people in the courtyard were probably used to Xu Damao bringing something back every time he went to the countryside, so no one took it to heart.

Xu Damao immediately felt that he had face, and after being courteous with Qin Dakui and others, he pulled Chu forward and said, "Brother, brother, I have two bottles of good wine at home, and I'll get them for you."

Chu Xiangqian hurriedly pretended to be polite and pulled him away, but said, although Qin Dakui is the head of a lumberjack, he is a real cadre of the Forestry Bureau.

He also served as the head of the forest farm.

Xu Damao is a snobbish man, upon hearing this, he decisively slipped home to get some wine.

And be sure to take good wine.

One told Qin Dakui and the others that he had no shortage of good things, so when he wanted to send things to himself in the future, don't take out the ones that are too ordinary.

Second, if Chu was pushed forward with a few bottles of wine, Xu Damao would get excited just thinking about it.

Entering the house, I rummaged through the boxes to find wine.

In the end, when I was carrying two bottles of Xifeng at 2.5 yuan each, I hesitated for a while and changed to two bottles of Wuliangye at 5 yuan each.

In his mind, this is called high investment and high returns.

From now on, when I go to the forest farm, as long as I can bring back two or three rabbits and pheasants, I will earn back two bottles of wine.

Lou Xiaoe, who was in the room watching, asked curiously, "Xu Damao, what's the matter with you? This wine guy has been hiding it like a treasure for almost two years, and now he is willing to take it out?"

Xu Damao curled his lips, "You don't understand, Chu Xiangqian in the front yard today is wearing a military overcoat and carrying a gun. If I don't take advantage of his relatives from his hometown and bring out some good things, he will be compared to me.

Besides, he is now a member of the street security department, so give him face, and he will be able to talk to him if he really asks for something in the future.

Moreover, his relative is from the Forestry Bureau. In the future, when our family wants to arrange furniture or need some wood, we can just go to him directly. "

Lou Xiao'e is not completely stupid, it's just that she has never been short of food and drink since she was a child, and after marrying Xu Damao, she doesn't go to work.

If you eat and sleep all day, and eat and sleep, you will become a lot of stupid.

But when it comes to business, Lou Xiaoe also understands that Xu Damao is right.

Moreover, the little money spent on tobacco and alcohol is the least valuable to the Lou family.

When he heard that Chu Xiangqian was from the street, he didn't say anything.

However, Xu Damao was always reluctant to part with the two bottles of Wuliangye, hesitated for a long time, and picked up two bottles of Xifeng, which immediately made Lou Xiaoe roll his eyes.

Thinking to himself that this guy is worthless, he turned around and took out a pair of red peonies and a pair of blue peonies from the cabinet.

Looking at Xu Damao, he said, "You yourself said that Xiao Chu is from the street, and that his relatives have good jobs. If something happens in the yard in the future, the three uncles must be wary of Chu Xiangqian's opinion.

Two bottles of wine are out, don't care about two more cigarettes. "

"This, this."

Xu Damao was immediately dumbfounded. The total amount was 15 yuan. Isn't this too much face?
But when he thought that he still wanted to buy tiger bones and tiger whips from Chu Xiangqian, he gritted his teeth, took the cigarette and said, "Then give me a bag, so that people in the yard won't see it. It's too conspicuous."

And 15 yuan is just that in Lou Xiaoe's eyes.
