When Lian Xiaomin heard this, she thought that any job would be fine, as long as she could get one, it was better than having no job at all, so she quickly asked Dalong about the details.
Listening to Dalong's continued talk, it turned out that Lao Liu's job was really good.
He used to work in the logistics department of the county hospital. He was not a leader, but just an ordinary clerk.
Working in an office, I am responsible for inventorying the warehouse, allocating materials, and all those trivial logistical tasks.
This job is not cheap, he asked others for 950 yuan.
After all, I had joined the company, with a starting salary of 26.8 yuan per month. After working for three years, I made it all back, so it wasn't a loss at all.
After you finish the work, you can move it up.
The problem is that not everyone can come up with such a large sum of money all at once.
Therefore, Lao Liu is waiting for a distant relative to think about it, saying that they will try to figure it out first and give him a definite answer at the end of the month.
He had to leave Jianye County before mid-December at the latest. He would have to take many trains to go to the south, and he planned to reunite with his son during the Gregorian New Year.
"Xiao Jiang, Lao Liu said that if I buy it, he will sell it for 900 yuan, which is 50 yuan less."
"...and if there is any milk powder, I will exchange it for a box, which is about 30 bags, and take it to the south to give to my two grandchildren."
Black market milk powder generally sells for around six or seven yuan a bag. Old Liu really has a lot of money. As a grandfather, he is willing to spend it on his children.
Lian Xiaomin smiled and said, "Dalong, thank you so much. No problem, I'll buy the job."
"...I'll charge six yuan for the milk powder, and give you thirty bags for a box. The remaining 720 yuan will be paid directly to Lao Liu in cash when the time comes."
Dalong asked Xiao Wuzi to make a pot of tea and pour it for Xiao Jiang.
"I knew you would definitely accept it. This job is really good. If you don't want it, I will leave it to my family."
"…So I just gave Lao Liu 200 yuan as a deposit and told him he was dead. When do you want to go and complete the formalities?"
Lian Xiaomin actually wanted to help Lin Youshu find a job in the county town, so that he could pay her back the money slowly every month when he got his salary in the future.
We are friends, so it’s okay to pay for it in advance.
Moreover, she planned to take a few people to hunt in a few days, so Lin Youshu would be included.
By then, I can still earn some money and have a good New Year, and it can also be considered as helping my relatives and friends in a roundabout way.
Unexpectedly, things went so smoothly. Dalong was quite helpful. He found a job just two days after arriving in the county. So there is no time to lose, let’s settle this matter first.
"Either my own family needs work, or I'm doing someone else a favor. A client asked me to find out."
"I don't know who will take over at that time. How about letting that person take the money and go to Lao Liu to handle the formalities? Give him another five hundred and twenty."
"...I will definitely go there within a week. As for the thirty bags of milk powder, I will put them in the warehouse for you tonight. The two hundred deposit you paid for me will be deducted from the payment."
Dalong nodded: "That's no problem. I'll take the milk powder to Lao Liu tomorrow to explain it again, and then wait for him to come find him at the company."
"...Old Liu's name is Liu Daiping. As long as you mention my name, he will definitely get it done."
Now that the job has been settled, Lian Xiaomin breathed a sigh of relief. She hopes that since Lin Youshu has a good job this time, Xiao Lingzi will be able to be with him!
Haha, I’m quite suitable to be a matchmaker. I have helped bring together quite a few couples!
She suddenly thought of something and asked Dalong casually, "Old Liu is leaving soon, is he selling his house?"
Dalong laughed heartily: "Xiao Jiang, you are really good! Your brain works very quickly."
"...The house is a small courtyard with three rooms. It's on the east side of the city, not far from the hospital. After asking, I was planning to stay there."
Lian Xiaomin was also happy when she heard this. A gentleman does not take away what others like. She didn't really need it, she was just asking casually.
This was not planned for Lin Youshu, but for himself to stay.
Who knows what happened to these kids we just picked up in the end?
If they continue to stay and don't go to Hong Kong with me, it would be good for them to have a place to live. What's wrong with having multiple properties? They won't be homeless anymore.
"Oh, I'm not going to compete with you, so just keep it. I'm just asking casually."
Dalong lit a cigarette and took a puff.
"It's okay, Xiao Jiang. I also want to be your friend. I don't need a house in this small piece of land in the county. How can I possibly compete with you for this?"
"...I think you are a decent person. Just because you told me not to raise the price to sell grain to the people, I know you are capable!"
"...Lao Liu's house is pretty good. I gave him a thousand yuan. If you want it, I'll give it to you."
He simply took out the house deed, put it on the table, and took it to register and get a certificate.
"Haha, thank you again! Why do I feel like I owe you a favor? Well, I'll give you a box of wine to try. I'll put it in the warehouse tonight."
Dalong was not polite and clasped his fists: "Thank you very much! Tomorrow morning after dawn, I will go to these three places to count the goods. At noon, I will come back here and we will meet to settle the bill."
"Okay, the money for the house will also be deducted from the payment!"
The two of them had made their decision, and Lian Xiaomin said goodbye and left.
I was very happy to get another yard.
After Lin Youshu gets a job, he will definitely get a house. It’s hard to say when that will be, so we can rent it to him first.
Anyway, houses are good things and you can never have too many of them.
She glanced at her watch and saw it was half past three, so she rode straight to the first warehouse.
This place is in a bungalow in the west of the city. Three rooms in a row have been connected, as if the factory was abandoned.
It's quite remote, but the wall is quite high and has a big padlock hanging on it.
She found the key, unlocked the door, went in, and began removing supplies from the space.
There are two hundred bags of rice and two hundred bags of flour, totaling forty thousand pounds, all stored here.
He also left a box of milk powder and a box of wine for Dalong here.
Six rolls of cotton cloth were placed on the grain sack. That was enough. These were all that could be put down.
Lock all the doors again, leave here and head to the second place.
After riding for about a kilometer, the second place was a warehouse with an iron gate.
I opened the lock and went in. It was empty inside. The floor was still concrete and was quite clean.
This warehouse has high ceilings and looks like it can hold a lot of things.
Lian Xiaomin had an idea and piled 50,000 kilograms of sweet potatoes directly on the ground without putting them in bags.
The "sweet potato mountain" immediately occupied most of the warehouse.
There is still one-third of space on one side, which can hold 5,000 kilograms of soybeans and millet, or 50 bags each. Let's put them down and stack them here.
In the end, there were still 50,000 kilograms of corn flour left, each bag weighing 100 kilograms, exactly 500 bags. Lian Xiaomin rode her bike to the last warehouse and unloaded all of it.
Now everything is done, the doors are locked, I dusted myself off, it's getting dark, let's go home.
