Era: Craftsmen in the Siheyuan

Chapter 186 Giving advice

The sign "Model Courtyard for Promotion of Briquettes" has been put up at the entrance of the courtyard, which looks a little more stylish.

Some residents in nearby alleys came intermittently to watch.

After all, the people from the neighborhood committee held loudspeakers and shouted propaganda back and forth all afternoon.

There are also children who are already singing children's songs using briquettes on the street.

Xu Deyong took off the mesh aluminum lunch box hanging on the handlebar and carried it in his hand. Inside was the liver tip he bought for his grandma.

You can't have a wife and forget about grandma.

When I got home, I saw my grandma Xu Nan enthusiastically telling the neighbors in the alley about the benefits of briquettes. She also took out the briquette molds and said that she could come and use them when she makes briquettes later.

Tsk tsk, this realization!

When Xu Nanshi saw Xu Deyong coming back, she said: "Hey, Xiaoyong, you've come back just in time. Later you will accompany me to the neighborhood committee and ask Team Leader Wang to write a note and get some briquettes. Each family will share a few pieces equally. That's it." Don’t be reluctant to burn the subsidies for our small courtyard when someone comes.”

Yes, this time I got aroused.

After eating with his grandma, Xu Deyong took his grandma to the neighborhood committee, took the note to a nearby coal shop, and bought a beehive worth less than 200 yuan.

When we returned to the courtyard, the family shared ten yuan.

Some of those who had complained suddenly fell silent. Free stuff is good.

The third aunt asked with a smile: "Aunt Nan, will it still happen after the fever is over?"

Xu Nanshi said: "I don't know about this. It has to be decided by the street. But we have the honor in the hospital and the subsidies. We must learn to be content."

"Yes, yes," the third aunt replied with a smile.

Mrs. Jia Zhang curled her lips slightly when she heard this, and thought to herself: "We are all in the same hospital, so no one knows who the other is, how can we be so impressive!"

Then he turned around and left holding his own briquettes.

The little BangGeng happily hugged one and followed behind with his short legs.

After Xu Nanshi finished his explanation, he went out to promote it with his bag in hand.

Xu Deyong couldn't help but said: "Grandma, don't be too tired!"

"I'm not tired." Xu Nanshi said: "Well, life lies in exercise. The leaders have said that we should exercise and improve our physical fitness. This is equivalent to exercising. You can be busy and leave me alone."

After saying that, he left without looking back.

Xu Deyong couldn't help but shake his head, no, it's no use worrying.

This old lady has something to do, and I am worried that she will feel "lonely".

According to this spirit, it will not be a problem to serve the people for another four to five years.

Xu Deyong later found his second aunt and gave her the parts and handwritten repair instructions, asking her to turn them over to Liu Haizhong.

Of course, I didn't let people work in vain and leave fifty cents.

The second aunt smiled brightly when she received the money. Fifty cents was enough to improve their family's meal.

Xu Deyong smiled and left. Compared to Yi Zhonghai, he was more "principled". It was naturally more convenient to ask Liu Haizhong for this kind of thing.

After finishing his own business, Xu Deyong rode the cart back to the tavern and bought some vegetables on the way.

The door of the tavern was open, but there were no customers inside. He stopped and took a look. Xu Huizhen, He Yumei and others were chatting inside.

Xiao Li'er was held and played by He Yumei.

Just as he was about to go in, Fan Jinyou came out from the next door and said, "Hey, Deyong, we don't have much firewood in the kitchen. I told Manager Cai and Manager Xu, take me with you and let's go buy some together."

Xu Deyong felt a little weird inexplicably, this Fan Jinyou seemed a little different!

What exactly happened, he couldn't tell for a while.

At this time, Cai Quanwu came out and said, "How about Deyong and I go."

Fan Jinyou said quickly: "No, no, you are the manager, just leave such small things to us."

Xu Deyong couldn't help but have a strange look on his face when he heard this. Hey, he knew something was wrong.

This Fan Jinyou was a lot more polite in his words. Although this guy was demoted in the past, no one was intimidated by his momentum.

It's a bit abnormal to be polite now. It was probably because I was aroused by this bitch Chen Xueru yesterday.

This person suddenly changes, either for better or for worse.

According to the "evil nature theory", no one is good, only the degree of badness is different.

With Fan Jin's urinary nature, this sudden change is not a good sign!

It's possible that the surface has gotten better, but the inside has become a bit "darker".

Of course, this guy is unlikely to go to extremes. After all, his mother is still alive and a sister is married. It is very likely that this guy will make some mistakes within the "rules".

It seemed that he needed to give Chen Xueru a warning not to provoke him again in the future.

Xu Deyong narrowed his eyes and smiled and said, "Sure, in that case let's go."

Fan Jinyou smiled and jumped onto the driveway: "Okay, let's walk."

The two of them went to buy a hundred kilograms of firewood. A kilogram of firewood only cost three cents. Of course, coal was cheap, and a kilogram only cost more than a penny.

After pulling one hundred kilograms of firewood back and unloading it, Fan Jinyou took out his lesson preparation book and took a look at it. He was also recording something with a pen, preparing for the next literacy class. He was very active.

Seeing this, Xu Deyong smiled, went to the tavern next door, and took Xiao Li'er from He Yumei's arms.

The little guy had begun to feel sleepy. His little head rubbed against Xu Deyong's shoulder, his little hands grabbed his clothes, and his eyelids slowly fluttered.

At this time, Kong Yuqin ran over and whispered: "Hey, hey, have you noticed that Fan Jinyou is different today!"

He Yumei curled her lips and said: "I'm a little more polite to people. Who knows if he is a three-minute hot guy? I heard that manager Chen Xueru gave him a scolding last night, and the film master is going to be the public manager of the silk store. "

Zhao Yali and Fan Jinyou have grandparents and relatives, and they are more or less partial to Fan Jinyou. Hearing this, he said: "This person, we can't always look at a person with the same eyes as before. We must give him a chance to change his past." Chance, are you, Manager Huizhen?"

Xu Huizhen smiled lightly and said: "That's true, but what people fear most is that they do one thing on the surface and another behind the scenes."

"Let's not discuss this matter. At least his attitude towards work today is worth learning from."

Zhao Yali nodded and said, "What Manager Huizhen said makes sense."

Kong Yuqin curled her lips and said nothing more about Fan Jinyou. Zhao Yali, who said something unpleasant, went to report again, then changed the subject and said: "Film master? How can he, who travels around the streets selling foreign films, be the public manager of a silk store?"

He Yumei said with a smile: "Isn't it worse than you?"

"That's not true." Kong Yuqin said, she was quite motivated.

Zhao Yali is also a person who "goes up and down again", and said with a smile: "Then you should have written an application to the street early, maybe this silk store official manager will be yours."

"After all what happened with Liao Yucheng, it's really hard for gay men to go there, that is, the film director is older."

Seeing that the two of them were fighting, Cai Quanwu said, "This silk shop has business dealings with Dasu people. The public manager, Manager Xue Ru, has a lot of say. It's useless for you to think about it here." "

Xu Huizhen smiled and said: "Manager Cai should understand. Okay, let's stop talking and let everyone do their own thing."

He Yumei glanced at Cai Quanwu, and felt more and more that his face was not so ugly.

Xu Huizhen looked at Xiao Li'er who was sleeping in Xu Deyong's arms, and whispered: "You can take her home."

"Yeah." Xu Deyong said, "Then drink more hot water."

"understood."

……

Time flies, and four days pass in the blink of an eye. The promotion of briquettes is in full swing and the results are gratifying.

Unfortunately, after Wang Dezhou's calculations over the past few days, he discovered that the restriction on large-scale promotion came from the manufacturing of briquettes, and it was urgent to develop a machine for rapid production of briquettes.

And the movie master also got his wish and became the acting public manager of the silk store. Naturally, he stopped doing the job of selling foreign movies. His whole body started shaking, and he walked with his head held high.

But this guy is just showing off in the tavern, and he is just a listener in the silk shop. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is Chen Xueru's "puppet".

This evening, the tavern was still lively.

The film director came in swaggering, and many people called him "Manager Qiu" with a smile.

The film master suddenly showed a bright face, clasped his fists and said with a smile: "Everyone, lift it up, lift it up."

"Master Niu."

"Master Pian."

The two of them sat down. The film master didn't dare to show off in front of Mr. Niu. He, the "film master", was joking, but Mr. Niu was the real deal.

Fan Jinyou came in with a smile, sat down and said, "Hey, Mr. Film, you're done now, don't drink two more drinks."

Mr. Pian smiled and said, "Hey, let's wait until next month. When the wages are paid next month, Mr. Pian, I'll give you four taels of Niulanshan."

Xu Deyong and Liu Dezhu sat at the next table, drinking and watching and listening to the excitement.

Most people here come here just for this reason. After all, they don’t even have a radio at home, so a lot of news from outside is circulated in the market.

Xu Deyong and Liu Dezhu clinked their glasses and said, "What do you want to do with me today?"

Liu Dezhu took a sip, grinned, and whispered: "Hey, Deyong, Director Ma seems to be paying close attention to me these days and talks to me more than usual. What do you think is going on?"

Xu Deyong couldn't help but blinked quickly. Could it be that Director Ma really had some ideas?

After all, he just had an idea and said it casually.

Xu Deyong said: "Why, is there any problem?"

Liu Dezhu hummed for a moment and said: "Deyong, do you think Director Ma wants to promote me? You and Director Ma are more familiar with each other. What does Director Ma like? You said I want to give you some gifts. Is there any chance I can become a full-time employee?"

Xu Deyong smiled. He thought Liu Dezhu noticed something, but he didn't expect that he wanted to become a regular employee.

He said: "This is difficult..."

Liu Dezhu couldn't help but show disappointment in his eyes.

Xu Deyong changed his voice and said: "However, it is not that there is no chance. It depends on your own performance."

Liu Dezhu's eyes lit up and he said, "I knew you were smart, Deyong. Just tell me and I'll listen."

Xu Deyong touched his chin and said, "Here, have you met Director Ma's sister-in-law?"

Liu Dezhu blinked and said: "I've seen her before, chubby, what's wrong? Why did she suddenly say something?"

"Ahem." Xu Deyong coughed and said, "Well, isn't Director Ma's sister-in-law single all the time? That day, he asked me if I could talk to him if there was a suitable candidate."

"I just casually said you were honest and responsible..."

"Fuck..." Liu Dezhu suddenly realized, and punched the table with a loud voice. Suddenly, everyone's eyes couldn't help but look over.

Liu Dezhu smiled quickly and hugged everyone, expressing his embarrassment.

When everyone's attention was diverted, he whispered: "Let me tell you, why is Director Ma paying too much attention to me these days? It turns out the root cause is you!"

Xu Deyong touched his nose a little embarrassed and said: "Hey, that's what I said at the time. If you didn't have this idea..."

Liu Dezhu said quickly: "I think it will work!"

Xu Deyong: "..."

He still underestimated Liu Dezhu, he would really come to him if something happened.

Xu Deyong tentatively said: "I haven't even said a word about this yet... I mean, you don't have to force it."

Liu Dezhu held Xu Deyong's hand and said solemnly: "Deyong, you are a capable person. You can even deal with a woman like Manager Huizhen. You must teach me how to deal with Director Ma's sister-in-law."

"Best, teach me your "cylinder lifting technique"."

Xu Deyong: "..."

Good guy, I’m still thinking about this guy!

Moreover, this enthusiasm surprised him a bit, but after thinking about it, it made sense.

After all, Director Ma's sister-in-law is a high-ranking figure for Liu Dezhu.

Xu Deyong thought for a while and said: "It's not impossible to teach it to you. The key is not here, not between you and me, but whether Director Ma's sister-in-law can take a liking to you."

Liu Dezhu said: "Deyong, just tell me what I should do. Whether it succeeds or not is another matter."

Xu Deyong said: "If Director Ma is interested, he will most likely let his sister-in-law touch you. If you look interesting, then he will take the next step."

"So, the first thing you have to change is your image."

Liu Dezhu looked at himself up and down, and said a little sarcastically: "I don't have any spare money to spend on myself!"

Xu Deyong said: "Then it depends on whether you are determined. If you are really determined, you must be willing to pay. If you can, I can lend it to you first. Of course, you must be prepared to make a futile effort."

Liu Dezhu thought for a while, then gritted his teeth and said: "Cheng, Deyong, you lend me two dollars, I'll take care of myself, and I'll pay you back slowly. When I go out from now on, I'll just wear the unpatched clothes at home." Dress.”

"Yeah." Xu Deyong nodded and said: "This person's first impression is very important. You have to get a neat haircut and wash yourself clean. You can't be as sloppy as you are now. You have to always show energy when working. gas."

"After all, you never know when the other person will come and take a look at you."

Liu Dezhu nodded and said: "Yes, I understand. I will go and do the work tomorrow. The weather is getting warmer. From now on, I will take a shower every day after work..."

Xu Deyong nodded. If this guy has such determination, he still has a chance.

Liu Dezhu then changed his voice and said: "Well, can you teach me the "cylinder lifting technique" first?"

Xu Deyong suddenly showed a speechless look, beckoned him to come over, and murmured for a while.

Liu Dezhu said with a strange look on his face: "That's it?"

Xu Deyong shrugged and said: "That's it. Combine it with squats and keep practicing. You will feel the effects over time."

"Okay." Liu Dezhu was a little disappointed. He still wanted to become as powerful as Xu Deyong.

Xu Deyong took out five dollars, pushed it to him on the table and said: "Pay it back slowly, don't be in a hurry."

"Yes." A flash of determination flashed in Liu Dezhu's eyes. This was his chance to change his destiny...

……

At night, after feeding Xiao Li'er and putting her to sleep, Xu Huizhen lay down and leaned in Xu Deyong's arms, whispering: "Let's go."

Ah!

Xu Deyong's eyes lit up. The beauty has already sent out an invitation. What are you waiting for?

"Husband fights, the kidney qi is also there. One is used as a horse, then weakens, and three are exhausted. I am full of those who are exhausted, so I overcome them. If there is a huge one, I hope it will cry, so I will chase it away..."
