Siheyuan: Steel Mill Engineer

Chapter 94 Sir
"Why did you come back so late? Why didn't you wait until tomorrow morning to come back?" Zhou Qianqian said as she opened the door for Yang Zhenyu.

"I came back at night on purpose. I brought back a lot of seafood this time. It would not be good to be seen in broad daylight." Yang Zhenyu said.

"How many did you get? I heard there were quite a few people just now." Zhou Qianqian said.

"Well, if it's just the two of us eating, we can eat until the New Year." Yang Zhenyu said after thinking for a while.

"How did you get it back? Can you leave so many things here? I read in a book that seafood can be deadly if it goes bad." Zhou Qianqian said.

"I'm not stupid. They were all alive when I loaded them onto the truck. However, many of them must have died along the way. I'll freeze them with some ice tomorrow and they will be ready to be stored until the New Year," said Yang Zhenyu.

"Okay, clean up quickly. You smell really strong." Zhou Qianqian said, pinching her nose.

"What can I do? This is how it is when I live in a guesthouse. It's not convenient to do laundry. I can only come back and clean it up."

"Stop talking, go wash up and change your clothes."

After simply washing his body and changing into clean clothes, Yang Zhenyu returned to the bedroom.

"I think it's about enough. We have already made two trips, plus this three trips, it should be enough." He Yuzhu said.

This is already the third truckload. Not a lot is transported back each time, but three truckloads is still a lot.

"That's not the case. You have never done physical work before, so you feel tired after doing any work." Yi Zhonghai said with a smile.

During those years, there were many rivers in the suburbs of the old city, because there were fewer reservoirs and fewer diverted rivers at that time. After all, the Haihe River still had many tributaries.

"I have done a lot of physical work. Who in our factory doesn't do physical work?" Yang Zhenyu retorted.

"Although this job does not seem difficult, it is really tiring." Yang Zhenyu said with a smile.

The next day, Yang Zhenyu slept in as he was tired after being on a business trip for so many days.

It was past nine o'clock when Yang Zhenyu got up.

Yang Zhenyu and a few others looked up but didn't pay much attention. After all, it was normal to have cars passing by on this road.

As the saying goes, a short absence is better than a new marriage, and the night was peaceful and smooth.

"Brother Zhuzi, isn't it too early?" Yang Zhenyu said speechlessly.

"Is it still early? The uncle has already gone there. We can just go find him now. I guess he has already got a lot of ice cubes." He Yuzhu said speechlessly.

"Uncle, this is almost enough, right?" Yang Zhenyu said as he looked at the bottle of ice that was full again.

"Haha, you are different from us. You mainly do mental labor, while we do physical labor. It's different." He Yuzhu said with a smile.

"Brother, you can sleep a lot. Let's go quickly. If we hurry, we can make two trips." He Yuzhu said to Yang Zhenyu.

"squeak!"

"Well, it's almost done. Let's work harder and freeze all the seafood after transporting it back." Yi Zhonghai looked at it and nodded with satisfaction.

"Just walking and walking." Yang Zhenyu said helplessly.

He Yuzhu was waiting early. He wanted to help get ice cubes and also to pick up He Yushui in the afternoon.

The two men pushed the cart and headed towards the river not far away.

A small car stopped by the roadside.

"Is it Comrade Zhenyu?"

A voice attracted the attention of Yang Zhenyu and others.

"Yes……"

When he saw the person clearly, Yang Zhenyu was still very excited. Although he had seen him twice before, he was still very excited to see him again. "Uncle, Brother Zhuzi, you go back first. I'll go over and talk to you." Yang Zhenyu said to Yi Zhonghai and the other person, and then trotted over.

"Sir!" Yang Zhenyu wiped his hands on his clothes and then shook hands with the man.

"It looked like you, so I asked the driver to stop and take a look. It turned out to be you," said the gentleman.

"I'm sorry to have worried you." Yang Zhenyu said shyly.

"Are you getting ice? Planning to go back and make a freezer?" The gentleman pointed at Yi Zhonghai and the other man who were pushing a cart with a smile.

"Yes, I bought some seafood for my family to try when I came back from a business trip. I put some ice on it for easy storage. Plus, the Chinese New Year is approaching, so I prepared it in advance." Yang Zhenyu said.

"I have personally seen all the inventions you have made before. They are all beneficial to people's livelihood. However, some of them are not suitable for our current situation. I personally led people to discuss some of the exports..."

The two men sat on the river bank and chatted, not feeling uncomfortable at all because they were on the ground.

"Sir, time is running out." The secretary's reminder interrupted the conversation between the two.

"We haven't finished our conversation today. We can continue it later when we have time." The gentleman said as he stood up and smiled.

"Sorry for taking up your time." Yang Zhenyu also stood up and said.

Watching the car leave, Yang Zhenyu finally breathed a sigh of relief. The conversation just now was actually very tense. This person could influence the national trend. If he said too much, deviations would easily occur, and then the sin would be serious.

"That person left?"

Yi Zhonghai and the other man pushed the cart away, but they did not go far. Instead, they waited for Yang Zhenyu in front. They were really scared.

"Let's go. I'm very busy all day. It's good enough that I can stop for half an hour." Yang Zhenyu said.

"Brother, you are really awesome. I thought it was awesome enough that I knew a big leader, but I didn't expect you to be even more awesome." He Yuzhu said with a thumbs up.

"That's nothing. He's always friendly. I've met him twice before with the teacher..."

"Okay, let's drop this topic. Don't talk about it in the compound when we go back." Yang Zhenyu said.

"Zhenyu is right. We can't go back and talk nonsense. It would be bad if it causes more trouble." Yi Zhonghai said in agreement.

"Yes, I know." He Yuzhu nodded.

Although they said so, Yi Zhonghai and the other man were still very excited, which could be seen from the way they walked.

In the afternoon, He Yuzhu went to pick up He Yushui for the holiday.

Yang Zhenyu and Yi Zhonghai built a freezer in the cellar, which was convenient to lock to prevent anyone from taking away the seafood.

"Shazhu, take these to the backyard and let the old lady try them." Yi Zhonghai said as he picked up a few pieces of fish.

"Okay, okay." He Yuzhu took the bowl and went to the backyard.

Yi Zhonghai did a very good job in this regard. Every time he had something delicious, he would think of the old lady in the backyard. Even after Yang Zhenyu came, he did not change.

Maybe he was setting an example for Yang Zhenyu, or maybe he was just used to it.

But no matter what, this image is very good. At least people in the compound say good things about him, and that is enough.

"Brother Zhenyu, this seafood is really delicious. Can we get it again next time?" He Yushui said while eating.

"Eating can't stop you from talking." He Yuzhu glared at He Yushui and said.

"It's really delicious. I've never eaten it before." He Yushui said, sticking out her tongue.

It would be lovely if there wasn't crab meat stuck on your tongue.
