Siheyuan: Xu Damao wakes up in the world

Chapter 20 Tips for Liu Lan
"Enough, enough, absolutely enough. Don't compare us with your steel rolling mill. Your steel rolling mill is a large factory with ten thousand people. The few things purchased by one buyer are not enough to fill the gap between teeth. Our unit is only 21 Personally, it’s enough for Damao brother to just serve some snacks,” Deputy Director Ma said.

"As for us not sending buyers out, we can't. If we want to send buyers out, we must have a letter of introduction."

"Our buyer took out the letter of introduction, and when people saw it, he was a police officer."

"Who dares to sell this to us? What if it is a trap? This makes procurement extremely difficult for us. We can only eat what is rationed and planned, but these are not enough."

"Don't worry, brother Damao, we won't let Nian Bai work. Do you think this will work?"

"Brother Damao, you will be affiliated with our unit as a temporary worker, and your salary will be paid according to the standard of an intern, 16 yuan per month. We will provide you with matching work clothes and a letter of introduction for you. If If necessary, I can equip you with a gun." Director Zhu said.

This is a piece of cake for Xu Damao. Xu Damao is familiar with watching movies in the surrounding countryside. There is no trust issue at all. As long as he helps the steel rolling mill purchase, people in the surrounding countryside will not doubt him at all.

This is the advantage of Xu Damao's status as a film projectionist. He can work part-time as a buyer, killing two birds with one stone.

"Personally, there is no problem for me, but I have to ask my leader." Xu Damao said.

Naturally, you have to talk to Director Li about this kind of thing.

"Okay, no problem! Then let's come here today and drink a glass of wine together. We will wait for the good news of Brother Damao early tomorrow morning." After Director Zhu finished speaking, everyone drank the wine and said a few polite words before leaving and preparing to leave. .

"Brother Zhu, your bags are left behind." Xu Damao quickly handed the cloth bag filled with 600 yuan to Director Zhu and others.

"Da Mao, there is no need to play this game between us." Director Zhu waved his hands repeatedly. No matter how much Xu Damao persuaded them, they would not accept it at all.

"Damn it! You are forcing me to do things for you outright."

"If you don't accept money, how can I settle Silly Zhu's matter? If I don't settle Silly Zhu's matter, I will owe you a favor. If I owe you a favor, I will have to work for you. I am said to be a buyer. I don't know what I will do in the future. What? They all say that treacherous officials are cunning, but the ancients have never deceived me." Xu Damao thought to himself.

"Brother Zhu, isn't this serious?" Xu Damao couldn't help but asked in surprise when he saw Director Zhu and the others were packing leftovers instead of leaving.

"Brother Damao, what I just said is not a lie. We are really short of oil and water. Bringing these leftovers home will make your sister-in-law happy for several days," said Director Zhu.

Xu Damao always felt incredible. Suddenly, Xu Damao understood and found that he was always looking at the things in front of him from the perspective of future generations.

After all, things that were commonplace in later generations are simply unbelievable at this time, such as: How can leaders pack food and drinks?

"What's that, Brother Zhu, wait a minute, there are 21 of you here, right?" After Xu Damao finished speaking, he quickly found the waiter and bought 24 roast ducks for them to take away.

Two for each of the three leaders and one for each of the others.Xu Damao had the money; the tickets were naturally given by Director Li before. In this regard, Director Li has always been very generous.

Xu Damao's boldness immediately aroused a burst of cheers and praise from everyone. Compared to the three smiling tigers, Director Zhu, Deputy Director Ma and Instructor Niu, the others were much more sincere and thanked Xu Damao from the bottom of their hearts.

The calls of Brother Damao and Brother Damao are very sincere.

After sending these people away, Liu Lan came to the private room, found Xu Damao, and asked with a dark face: "Xu Damao, where is mine? You can't let me work in vain all night, right?"

"Don't worry, can I miss you?" Xu Damao teased. After Xu Damao finished speaking, he slapped two big black tens and two pounds of meat tickets on Liu Lan's hand.

"Want to buy roast duck or something else? It's up to you," Xu Damao said.

"Thank you, Damao." Liu Lan said excitedly.Liu Lan is very practical and knows how to live a good life. Of course, she cannot buy roast duck. The money is enough for her to live a good life.

"You're welcome. If you want to thank me, just thank Shazhu. I'm using Shazhu's money to do Shazhu's business." Xu Damao said with a smile.

"Xu Damao, just do it, be careful that Silly Zhu comes out to retaliate against you." Liu Lan said.

"Am I afraid of him? By the way, Liu Lan, let me give you a piece of advice."

"You have to ask for it when you need it, and you have to ask for more, and you have to ask for it, and you want it while you can. Director Li is not short of money." "Your biggest problem is that you are soft-hearted. In the future, you must not be soft-hearted. When you grow old, you won't be able to get it anymore if you want it." Xu Damao said.

Many people are well aware of the matter between Liu Lan and Director Li.

Many people look down on Liu Lan, but due to Director Li's power, they dare not say it openly and can only slander him secretly.

Xu Damao didn't care. Survival was not a shame.

Besides, Liu Lan had no other reason to be with Director Li. She didn't ask Director Li to arrange a job for her, and she didn't make Director Li's family miserable. She just wanted to support her family.

Where can you find such a sensible, well-behaved person who won't cause you trouble?
Therefore, Xu Damao reminded Liu Lan that Liu Lan was too soft-hearted. When she was with Director Li, she needed to get more money for self-defense. No matter how much she could get, at least she could ensure that she had enough food and clothing for the rest of her life.

"Is this...appropriate?" Liu Lan asked.

"What's inappropriate? For things like today, don't just stare at the leftovers in front of you. You just met me. Who would be as generous as me when meeting others?"

"You act coquettishly while he's drunk, and it's not like playing for 80 or [-] yuan. Don't do this too much. Just do it once or twice in a month or two, and wait a few years. Even if Director Li is gone, you can still live comfortably if you have money." Xu Damao said in a tone of hatred that iron cannot be transformed into steel.

Liu Lan's eyes lit up instantly.

Xu Damao's words seemed to bring a ray of light into Liu Lan's dark world.

"Can it still be like this?" Liu Lan muttered to herself in disbelief.

"Of course, you look smart, but you are also a fool. It is really stupid to guard Director Li's big mountain but not make any money. Let me tell you, it is too easy to make money."

"I remember your father-in-law was a carpenter, right?" Xu Damao said.

"Yes, carpenter, do you want to make furniture? My father-in-law can do it and I guarantee a fair price." Liu Lan said quickly, thinking that Xu Damao was going to make some furniture.

"Do you have a lump in your head? What kind of furniture should I make? Director Li wants to make the furniture. To be precise, the steel rolling mill wants to make the furniture." Xu Damao said.

"What kind of furniture is the steel rolling mill going to build?" Liu Lan said innocently.

"The steel rolling mill needs to build several tables for receptions." Xu Damao asked the waiter for pen and paper, and casually drew the turntable tables of later generations.

"Do you think Director Li would like a table like this?" Xu Damao introduced the functions of the turntable table and then asked.

"I definitely like it." Liu Lan's eyes lit up and she said.

Others don’t understand Director Li, doesn’t Liu Lan understand him?A large part of Director Li's work must be done at the dining table. With such a dining table, Director Li will definitely have face.

"If you like it, you have to build it. Your father-in-law is a carpenter. With your relationship with Director Li, can't you take on this job?" Xu Damao asked.

"Yes! That's great! Thank you Xu Damao." Liu Lan said excitedly, wanting to pick Xu Damao up and kiss him hard.

"How much money are you going to ask Director Li for?" Xu Damao asked quietly.

"I'll have to ask my father-in-law for details when I get back. I guess it's only about ten yuan, and 18 yuan is enough." Liu Lan still knew a little about carpentry, so she said.

"You are stupid and you still don't believe me! How much can you earn with 18 yuan? One yuan, two yuan, or three yuan? Is this enough money to grind your fingers?" Xu Damao rolled his eyes and said.

"How much is it? 28?" Liu Lan said seriously.In Liu Lan's view, this table is very simple. It's just an ordinary table with a bottom and a hinge. Even 18 yuan is a bit much.

"One hundred and eighty." Xu Damao said without thinking.
