Chapter 33



Everyone was discussing about partnership, but Wen Nuan was the only one who stayed behind without saying a word.

After what happened on the train, although Zhang Zhenzhen disliked Wen Nuan, she also knew that she was not someone to be trifled with, so she did not bully Wen Nuan as blatantly as she did in her previous life.

In her previous life, Nuan Nuan didn't have the spare money to buy a cabinet. Besides, she didn't have anything to put in it. From head to toe, she had only two sets of tattered clothes and a torn quilt.

In this life! Although I need a cabinet, I have plenty of space. Although I am not short of money now, I am still frugal in my heart.

If it wasn't for hiding from the public, there would be no need to come here.

Soon, they arrived at Carpenter Zhang's house, and Li Da went up and knocked on the door.

After a while, the door was opened from the inside, but Wen Nuan didn't expect that the person who opened the door was the old lady she met on the train!

Zhang Zhenzhen and Zhu Jianjun were also very shocked. Thinking about what happened on the train, it was really a narrow road for enemies to meet.

Wen Nuan was surprised for a moment, then immediately retracted her gaze. After all, there was no major conflict between her and the old lady.

But Zhang Zhenzhen and Zhu Jianjun were different. Zhang Zhenzhen, who couldn't keep her cool, spoke without thinking.

"Why are you here?"

The old lady obviously recognized Zhang Zhenzhen. She looked at Zhu Jianjun who was not far away from her and immediately rolled her eyes.

"Why do you care where I am? Why are you knocking on the door?"

Li Da saw that the atmosphere between the two seemed a little tense, smiled awkwardly and said:

"Auntie, is this Carpenter Zhang's house? We are here to ask Carpenter Zhang to replace some cabinets!"

When the old lady heard this, she stepped back a few steps and opened the door.

"Come in, my brother is working in the backyard!"

I didn't expect that this old lady was actually Carpenter Zhang's sister. Wen Nuan had never come to buy a cabinet in her previous life, so she really didn't know about this.

The group followed the old lady in. Zhang Zhenzhen and Zhu Jianjun couldn't help but look at the old lady a few more times, fearing that they would be in trouble again.

Perhaps because she was at her brother's house, the old lady didn't act like she did on the train and ignored Zhang Zhenzhen and Zhu Jianjun at all.

In the backyard, Carpenter Zhang was assembling cabinets. This set of cabinets was exactly the purpose of the old lady's trip.

The youngest son in the family was going to get married, so the old lady came to her younger brother's house and asked Carpenter Zhang to help make a set of furniture.

Seeing everyone coming in, Carpenter Zhang temporarily put down his work.

"You must be the new educated youth!"

Li Da stood in front of the team and nodded with a smile.

"Yes, yes, you are Carpenter Zhang, right? We all came here because of your reputation and want to pick out some cabinets. Is it convenient for you to come now?"

"It's inconvenient, it's inconvenient, what's wrong with that!"

After Carpenter Zhang finished speaking, he looked at his sister and said:

"Sister, don't worry about Sanwa's furniture. I will personally deliver it to you after it is finished. Now that my family is here, I won't keep you any longer. Go back as soon as possible!"

The old lady frowned, then took out a big knot and handed it to Carpenter Zhang.

"Since you said so, I won't worry about it. But you have to take this money. I won't let you work in vain!"

Carpenter Zhang stretched out his hand and pushed it away, with no intention of taking the money.

"Sister, my own nephew is getting married, so what's wrong with me, as his uncle, giving him a set of furniture? The wood is all readily available, and I just spent some time on it!"

"It's one thing to one thing. You sent it over, and I've already accepted your favor. Why don't you want money? Your whole family will have food and drink!"

The old lady's attitude was very firm, which was completely different from the way she tried to take advantage of others and make trouble on the train.

"No need, sis. Just consider it as a gift from me to my nephew!"

"A gift is a gift. This is different. You don't give it this way!"

After the old lady finished speaking, she forcefully stuffed the money into Carpenter Zhang's pocket, then turned and left.

Watching his sister's movements, Carpenter Zhang was a little dazed. He felt that something was different about his sister's visit to Fengxiao this time.

I looked up at 꽭, with a puzzled look on my face. The sun didn't rise from the west either...

"Carpenter Zhang, look..."

Li Da's words interrupted Carpenter Zhang's thoughts. He came to his senses and said a little embarrassedly:

"Sorry, I was a little distracted. Come on, I'll take you to look at the furniture. I have some ready-made furniture in my warehouse. Take a look. If you don't like it, you can also order it to order!"

Everyone nodded and followed him to the warehouse.

When you open the door of the warehouse, you can clearly see the furniture inside, including cabinets of all sizes, tall and short.

However, the most common type is the kang cabinet, a large box that can be locked.

"How did you change this? I saw that the dormitories of the educated youths' camps all use this type of thing!"

Zhu Jianjun pointed at a kang cabinet and asked.

"This one! Indeed, this is the one that most of the educated youths need. It can be locked, has a large space, and is more practical.

The most important thing is that the price is not expensive, only two yuan each, plus a ticket, no matter what kind of ticket it is, grain ticket, cloth ticket, sugar ticket or meat ticket. "

Two yuan is indeed not expensive for such a big box, but it is not easy to get tickets. Moreover, none of the educated youth have such things, and even if they do, the quantity is not much, and they are reluctant to take it out for exchange.

"My fellow countryman, what if there is no ticket? Can I just use money to pay for it?"

Carpenter Zhang glanced at everyone and frowned. What the countryside lacked most was various receipts, so every time new educated youth came, Carpenter Zhang would ask for some receipts.

"If you don't have a ticket, just give me two yuan. It's the same price for everyone!"

There was a difference of a dime between having a ticket and not having one, and I felt very upset, because when I was in the city, a ticket was not worth a dime.

It's a pity that Carpenter Zhang didn't give us a chance to bargain.

Everyone looked at each other, and finally compromised.

"My fellow countryman, I don't have food coupons, meat coupons, etc., but soap coupons will do?"

"Soap ticket?"

"Yes, it's the one you use for washing your face, the one that smells good and makes bubbles!"

Zhou Xiaohua looked at Carpenter Zhang expectantly. She didn't want to pay the extra money, but she was reluctant to give him the grain coupons.

So after much hesitation, I just took out the unimportant soap tickets.

Carpenter Zhang thought about it, and although he was a little hesitant, he finally agreed.

After all, there are no tickets in the countryside, and the money distributed at the end of each year can barely last a whole year.

"Okay, any ticket is fine, but it has to be for use here. For tickets from other places, forget it!"

Many of the receipts used to buy things at the supply and marketing cooperatives are valid nationwide, but some are only circulated in different regions, so Carpenter Zhang gave such instructions.

After hearing this, many educated youths heaved a sigh of relief and took out some rarely used bills to spend more money.

In addition to this kang cabinet, everyone also replaced various things, such as wooden basins, benches, washboards, etc.

Wen Nuan also exchanged some necessities with the others, and then went back to the educated youth center to wait for Carpenter Zhang to deliver the goods.
