My Courtyard Refuge

: Making connections

Hurrying quickly, Xu Dong finally got home before lunch.

Today’s courtyard is extraordinarily lively.

The children didn’t know that three toy motorcycles turned out from there. The twins and Ma Xu chased each other in the cars, making the yard full of chickens and dogs.

“Where did you get the motorcycle?” Xu Dong asked his wife.

“Didn’t you buy it? I saw it in the warehouse.”

Xu Dong patted his forehead, he remembered.

He did buy the toy motorcycle, but it was a birthday present for the triplets. Boys, there is no boy who doesn’t like driving.

“That’s…forget it, it’s all demolished.”

“What’s wrong?”

“It’s nothing, why are you going to the warehouse?” Xu Dong asked casually.

Yang Lina said unhappily: “It’s not because of your two precious daughters, I don’t let them play tablet, they just insist on playing badminton.

I wanted to go to the warehouse to look for it, but I couldn’t find the badminton racket, but I found a toy motorcycle, so I brought it up.

Lingling was still smart, after reading the manual, she assembled the motorcycle with a flexible mind. ”

Looking at the two sisters who didn’t look like ladies at all, Xu Dong decided to add more burdens to the little padded jackets:

“I told Lingling, let her help Keke and the others with extra lessons when she has time, and you can supervise them when the time comes. Lingling is not an elder after all, so I’m afraid it’s hard to manage.”

“Hey, why did you suddenly change your mind?” Yang Lina asked in surprise.

“I just didn’t let the two of them ‘deadly study’, and I didn’t say that they really let go.”

“You remember what you just said.”

Xu Dong nodded and said, “Don’t worry, don’t be too strict, do you understand the combination of work and rest?”

“Is it still necessary for you to say that?”

…

After lunch, Xu Dong was lying in the vegetable garden swiping his phone, and as he swiped, a wonderful idea suddenly popped up in his mind.

In the past few days, one thing has been lingering in his mind. The root of the problem lies with Boss Duan. The other party’s behavior of playing around the edges has always made him uneasy.

It wasn’t until this moment that Xu Dong finally thought of a solution, which was to pull more people into the water.

There is a saying that goes well, the law does not blame the public.

As soon as he thought of it, Xu Dong opened the wechat group of the rotation training class, edited a text message immediately, and then tweeted everyone.

“The group leader gave out benefits. Dried krill costs 3,500 yuan per catty, and the purchase limit is 10 catties per person. If you want to buy it, hurry up.”

When the news came out, one stone stirred up a thousand waves, and the group exploded immediately.

“Really, group leader, don’t fool us?”

“Haha, the group leader is a local tyrant, how could he be joking with us?”

“Now that you have money, you can’t buy food, let alone meat. Old Xu really has a conscience.”

“How to sign up?”

“Old Xu, good job!”

“Ten catties is too little, can I buy more?”

“Is there anyone who is willing to sell the quota? Buy it at a high price.”

“Get out upstairs, as if someone is short of this money.”

“Long live the group leader!”

Next, the message “Long live the group leader” was swiped across the screen.

Xu Dong quickly sent another voice message: “I am Xu Dong, the news is absolutely true. Everyone should be grouped according to their respective districts. It is best to form a small group. I will talk with each other later. .”

After posting the voice, the group became more lively, even more lively than when they were grabbing red envelopes during the Chinese New Year.

Zhao Jian also received the news, and quickly contacted Xu Dong in private: “Old Xu, what are you thinking?”

“Old Zhao, I have my own reasons, so don’t askup. “Xu Dong replied in seconds.

“Okay, can I also spend money to buy the fifty catties of dried shrimp? [bad laugh][bad laugh]”

Xu Dong replied directly: “It’s broad daylight, don’t dream.”

“It’s my share this time too, right?”

“Have.”

“Okay, then I’ll sign up. Our small group has just elected a team leader, and he will talk to you on our behalf.”

Xu Dong felt that this method was good, so he quickly sent a message to ask other groups to choose a team leader.

As for other private messages, they don’t read them at all.

Soon, the team leader in Shijingshan took the initiative to pull Xu Dong into the group.

“Group leader, we are from Shijingshan District. There are a total of ten people in the group. How do we trade?”

Xu Dong thought for a while and replied: “There are few people here, why don’t you just send someone to drive to the city, and then we will meet at a place.”

The members of the group are all public officials, and the quantity and price of dried shrimp are also public. He is not afraid of being deceived by others.

“Then let me drive here myself!”

“also.”

“Group leader, how do I give you the money?”

“There will definitely be problems with such a large-scale online transfer. It is best to pay in cash.” Xu Dong thought for a while and replied.

More than 30,000 yuan per person is not a big number, just go to the bank to withdraw it, and it doesn’t take much time.

“Okay, group leader, then I’m leaving now, and I’ll call you when I arrive.”

“You don’t need to be in such a hurry? Dried shrimp can’t escape.”

“Our side is a bit far away, so we want to start early.”

Xu Dong had no choice but to agree, “Then drive slowly on the road. I’m in the direction of Panjiayuan. Let’s meet nearby.”

“OK.”

After replying to the message, the family couldn’t stay any longer, so Xu Dong drove a pickup truck to Panjiayuan’s side.

Next, he chatted in groups one by one, and finally arranged different pick-up times for everyone according to the number of people and the distance.

There are a total of 358 people in the group, and almost all of them can be done this weekend.

After an hour of this, Xu Dong packed more than 400 catties of dried shrimp and set off, and the destination was an underground parking lot nearby.

Dongcheng District is the closest, and of course the first one to pick up the goods.

A total of five people came across and drove three police cars.

“Old Xu, long time no see.”

“It’s been a long time.” Xu Dong hugged everyone one by one.

“We are close, we should contact more.”

This one looks like he wants to make connections. Anyone with a discerning eye knows that Xu Dong has “big skills”, so there is no harm in contacting him more.

“You are all busy people, how do you have time?” Xu Dong teased.

“No matter how busy you are, you, Old Xu, give me a call. Who would dare not come out?” This one was even more amazing, and directly put a high hat on Xu Dong.

Xu Dong quickly waved his hand: “Stop gossiping, you guys hurry up and get the goods, I have to meet other people later!”

In less than ten minutes, a total of 420 kilograms of dried shrimps were transferred to three police cars.

“Each bag is 50 catties. You go back and divide it yourself. If there is any shortage of catties or taels, please contact me when the time comes, and I will refund everyone.”

“Old Xu, you’re offended by what you said. If anyone dares to mention the word ‘refund’, we’ll just kick this kind of heartless person out of the group.”

“It’s not necessary.” Xu Dong quickly persuaded, but it was very useful in his heart.
