Chapter 347: A simple gift, a famous workers' village

After applying the facial cream, the two sat on the sofa and chatted.

Gu Sinian opened his travel bag, took out something and handed it to her.

Mingdai took it, looked at the familiar book, opened it and saw that it was indeed the house title deed with her name on it.

"You bought me another house? A courtyard house. Where did you get the money?"

Gu Sinian took out the unknitted wool and smoothed it out.

"I didn't know what gift to give you, but I thought you liked houses, and the bonus for this mission was quite large, so I asked Uncle Lu to buy you a house. Just like before, I've rented it out."

From the tone of his voice, if you didn't know better you would think he just went out to buy some food.

This gift is simple and unpretentious, Mingdai said she likes it!

Looking at the yarn in his hand, he asked, "Is this for me too?"

Gu Sinian nodded: "Yes, this is a scarf, and it matches your hat."

Ming Dai went forward and touched it: "Is this cashmere?"

Gu Sinian smiled and nodded: "Yes, it's pure cashmere, very warm. I also brought back a lot of wool this time, all of which are on the military card at the entrance of the village. Tomorrow you can choose a color and I will knit you a skirt."

Ming Dai was curious: "Are you planning to sell the yarn?"

Gu Sinian shook his head and said: "The wool sold alone is not included in the calculation. These wools are brought back from abroad and the quality is better than that in China.

Before I came here, I made an agreement with Uncle Lu that I would weave the wool into ready-made clothes and send them over before the New Year. He would help me sell them in Beijing to the people in the retirement home. They have money, and I could sell a sweater for tens of dollars. Apart from the commission I give him, the rest would be pure profit for me.

I have also decided who will knit the sweaters. I will let the people in the Taisho Church village do it.

Just like your clinic, we can ask Uncle Wei to stamp the seal and set up a Liujiawan workshop, registered under the name of the provincial textile factory. "

Ming Dai's eyes lit up when she heard this: "Pay attention to this. I just happen to have an order to fulfill when this workshop is set up.

I want to make a batch of women's products. I have sewing machines and fabrics, but I don't need labor.

If you can run this workshop, I can use manual labor."

Gu Sinian nodded and said, "It just so happens that I have a truck. Tomorrow I will put the sewing machine and fabric on the truck and say that I brought them back from the capital."

Mingdai did what she said. The next day, she did not sleep in for the first time. She was thinking about the sewing loom, so she washed up early and went downstairs to have breakfast.

After dinner, Mingdai went upstairs to change her clothes and prepared to go out.

Gu Sinian had already knitted the scarf last night. In order to wear it, Mingdai specially chose a white honeycomb collar sweater and matched it with a red hat, which set off her snow-white skin and made her look delicate and lovely.

After admiring herself enough in front of the mirror, Mingdai went downstairs.

When I got downstairs, I found that Gu Sinian was no longer in the room. Just as I was about to call for help, I heard a voice outside the villa.

Mingdai looked over in the direction of the sound and immediately burst into laughter!

In order to cover up the high altitude redness on his face, Gu Sinian put on his iconic red headscarf again!

To avoid embarrassment, he put one on one ear and the pony king as well!

Especially one ear, the headscarf looks so suitable on its head!

At this moment, it was holding its paws in its tucked chest, tilting its head, watching the battle between the Little Pony King and Gu Sinian. It looked very rustic, as if it had lived in Liujiawan for many years!

One ear is small, so wearing a headscarf is not very offensive.

The little pony king is in trouble. His ears are long and wearing a headscarf not only hurts his ears, but also looks very strange.

Now it has changed from a handsome horse into a little donkey with drooping ears!

Gu Sinian was holding a carrot in one hand and a pair of scissors in the other, coaxing the little pony king to lower its head, trying to free its ear.

Ming Dai walked forward with a smile and controlled Gu Sinian to fly up.

Gu Sinian seized the opportunity, and with two clicks, he dug two holes at the position of the pony king's ears and pulled out its two long ears.

The little pony king shook his ears and found that it didn't hurt anymore, so he didn't care what Si Nian put on his head. He chewed carrots and enjoyed the delicious food.

Just like that, with Yizier's non-resistance and the pony king's futile resistance, the two of them finally joined Gu Sinian's Red Turban Team.

Just as Mingdai was laughing and falling on an ear, her head was tightened and a standard bow was tied on her chin.

She touched it and found that Gu Sinian was wearing the same red scarf over the hat.

A new member of the Red Turban Team.

Gu Sinian looked at the freshly baked "Little Red Riding Hood" with satisfaction and smiled.

"That's right, a family should be together!"

Early in the morning, a long queue had formed at the water well in Liujiawan.

Everyone was looking at the big truck not far away, and were gossiping about whether it was Gu, the educated youth, who had returned.

Soon, the newly produced red headscarf version of F4 from Liujiawan walked towards the truck.

The familiar tall figure, the familiar red headscarf, yes, that's right, Gu Sinian is back.

When everyone saw the image of the little pony king and one ear, they immediately burst into laughter, and no one thought Gu Sinian's image was weird anymore.

In less than one morning, the whole village knew that Gu Sinian had returned.

Mingdai faced everyone's curious gazes, opened a corner of the military truck and went in. Looking at the wool that filled half the truck, she was a little curious. Did Gus rob the warehouse?

That's almost the same. When Gu Sinian was escaping, he happened to stop a truck full of military supplies.

After escaping danger, they found out that most of the goods were wool, which should have been supplied to the Quartermaster Department, but was taken away by Gu Sinian by mistake.

Mingdai put away the sewing machine and cloth she had prepared, patted the carriage, started the truck, and drove to the gate of the brigade headquarters.

When we arrived, the brigade headquarters had locked its door, and Ge Lao and Jia Cong should have gone to the greenhouse.

The door of the infirmary was open. Hearing the sound, Aunt Huang and Huang Dalian ran out and just in time saw Mingdai carefully helping Gu Sinian get out of the car.

"Gu Zhiqing is back!"

"What happened to Gu Zhiqing?!"

As he spoke, he walked forward and helped Mingdai to get the person down.

Gu Sinian's wound had just been pulled, and his face turned pale.

"It's okay. I was hurt accidentally while delivering the goods."

Huang looked at him in shock: "Why is delivering goods so dangerous? Isn't it just delivering something?"

Ming Dai explained to her: "There are a lot of robbers outside now, all of them are desperate criminals who will block any car they see. Gu Sinian was injured while trying to protect the goods in the car.

But it was a blessing in disguise. Gu Sinian kept the goods, and the company gave Liu Jiawan an order to thank him. "

"Affiliate?!"

"List?!"

Aunt Huang and Huang Dalian's eyes widened instantly and they looked at her with burning gazes.

Mingdai smiled and asked Mrs. Huang to call the captain and the others, while she helped Gu Sinian into the infirmary.

Just as Gu Sinian was settled, the captain and Secretary Liu came in a hurry.

"Where is Zhiqing Gu? How badly is he injured? Is it serious?!"

The captain ran so fast that he didn't even notice that the precious cigarette bag on his waist had fallen off. It was Liu Laifa who was chasing him who saw it and picked it up for him.

Hearing him calling Gu Zhiqing "Gu Zhiqing" all the time, Liu Lai felt sad. If someone didn't know, they would think Gu Zhiqing was his biological son!

However, he is also very self-aware, and as long as he dares to ask, his father will definitely answer.

Just like his mother regretted that she didn't have a daughter like Xiao Ming, the educated youth, in her life, his father wished he could exchange the three of them for one educated youth!

He is a little frightened, but he is definitely not stupid!

Liu Dazhui didn't notice the "changeable" face of his little son at the side. Instead, he looked at Gu Sinian, who was "sickly" lying on the recliner in the infirmary, with a look of heartache. His caring words came to him one after another, so frequently that Mingdai couldn't get a word in.

In the end, Liu Qingmin held him back, and Mingdai finally got in the way and briefly answered the captain's question.

"I encountered robbers and in order to protect the goods, I suffered a serious chest injury. I can't do heavy work for the time being."

"In consideration of Gu Sinian's efforts to protect the goods, the provincial textile factory gave Liujiawan a quota for affiliation and also gave it an additional processing order for half a truckload of wool."

"We need to hire people this time. The price for making a sweater is two yuan. If you don't know how to make it, you can learn first..."

These words stunned Liu Dazhu and Liu Qingmin.

Ming Dai had just secured 13 permanent jobs for the village, and now the educated youth Gu was going to open a factory in the village? ! !

Ming Dai corrected him and said, "We are not opening a factory. We are just a small workshop at the moment. We can only provide you with temporary positions and earn a little money."

Liu Dazhui really cried when he looked at Mingdai and Gu Sinian!

Wuuuu!

What is a good comrade!

This is a good comrade!!

It's a real money-making opportunity! !

Much better than those who can only shout slogans!!

If it weren't for the greenhouse vegetable cultivation led by the educated youth Xiao Ming, the village's accounts would still be in deficit, not to mention there would be extra money to repay the famine in the village!

Now not only has the village’s debt been paid off, but there is also a surplus in the account book!

You know, in the past, the young men in the village could only work as ordinary part-time workers, and they could pick any girl from the nearby families at will, not to mention the iron rice bowl in the provincial capital, which is very valuable!

And now, even in dangerous moments, Gu Zhiqing still did not forget to fight for the benefits of Liujiawan, and provided Liujiawan with so many jobs free of charge!

The more Liu Dazhu thought about it, the more excited he became, and the joy he couldn't help but burst out of his eyes.

If all the monks in the temple had not been chased away, Liu Dazhu really wanted to go to the temple and light a longevity lamp for Gu Sinian and Mingdai!

Liu Qingmin was also very happy. This year was definitely the fattest year Liujiawan had ever had!!

When Aunt Huang and Huang Dalian heard Mingdai say that a sweater cost 2 yuan, they were instantly moved and looked at Mingdai eagerly.

"Ms. Xiao Ming, can we also take on the job of knitting sweaters?"

Ming Dai smiled and nodded: "Of course, as long as it doesn't delay the consultation, you can do anything!"

Aunt Huang and her daughter-in-law were so excited that they couldn't wait to start knitting sweaters.

Thinking of this, Liu Qingmin suddenly reacted: "Guo Qingqing is injured, and no one else in the village knows how to knit sweaters. Who will teach everyone?"

Gu Sinian spoke up: "Let Dazheng teach us. Dazheng is very good at knitting and is more than qualified to be a teacher."

Liu Dazhu and Liu Qingmin looked at each other in shock. Liu Dazheng can actually knit?!

Although he was shocked, Liu Dazhu still asked someone to call Liu Dazheng over for the first time.

While everyone was waiting, Liu Laifa, who had been silent, came up.

"Well, Gu Zhiqing, can men also learn to knit and receive tasks?"

Gu Sinian looked at him strangely and nodded: "Of course, aren't Da Zheng and I men? We can knit, too!

This time, the task of knitting sweaters is open to all ages and genders. It only depends on the skills. Only those who pass the assessment will be given real wool."

Liu Lai was very excited. A sweater cost only two yuan! Even if he was slow, he could probably knit one in a month!

No matter how small a mosquito is, it’s still meat!

Not to mention him, Liu Dazhu and Liu Qingmin on the side looked at their rough fingers and wondered if they could also attend two classes. Maybe they just have a talent for knitting sweaters!

Soon, a burst of crying was heard.

Gu Sinian didn't need to stand up, he knew that Liu Dazheng had come.

He nervously grabbed the waist of his pants; he didn't wear a belt today!

After hearing that Gu Sinian was injured, Liu Dazheng didn't even ride his own car, but asked Liu Guoqiang to carry him over.

Along the way, he even choked up and urged Liu Guoqiang to run faster.

Now they arrived at the infirmary, looking at Gu Sinian lying on the recliner, Liu Dazheng struggled to rush over, grabbed Gu Sinian's pants tightly, and cried loudly.

I knew it!!

"My brother Si Nian, please don't let anything happen to you!!"

Gu Sinian held onto his pants tightly and explained to him that he was just injured, not dead, and there was no need to cry so sadly.

By the time Gu Sinian finished explaining, a large spot on his trousers was wet.

After Liu Dazheng calmed down, Gu Sinian told him what happened.

"Da Zheng, I want you to be my teacher for 20 yuan a month. Just help me teach everyone how to knit sweaters. You don't have to worry about anything else."

"20 bucks?!"

Liu Dazheng was so scared that he waved his hands: "20 yuan is too much, I only need 5 yuan!"

Gu Sinian shook his head: "Twenty is not much. You have to be responsible for teaching people well. I have half a cart of wool waiting to be woven before the New Year!"

Aunt Huang at the side also said: "Da Zheng, just listen to the educated youth and start the class as soon as possible. There are not many days left until the Chinese New Year!"

Seeing that everyone said so, Liu Dazheng nodded with emotion.

Before, he never dreamed that there would be a day when he would get a salary of 20 yuan!

Finally, Liu Dazhui made the decision to arrange for the students to learn knitting sweaters at Liu Dazheng's house. He was the only bachelor, so his house could accommodate so many people.

Ming Dai then asked Aunt Huang if there was anyone in the village who knew how to use a sewing machine. She also wanted to ask someone in the village to make something, preferably a woman.

Auntie Huang's eyes lit up: "We have this! How many people do you want?"

Ming Dai estimated: "Five people will be enough."

Aunt Huang nodded: "Five people can, but we may not have enough sewing machines."

Ming Dai smiled and looked at Gu Sinian, who pointed to the truck outside and said, "I brought the sewing machine and fabric, along with the yarn, and put them in the truck."

Aunt Huang's eyes widened: "Five sewing machines! That must cost a lot of money!"

Ming Dai smiled and nodded: "It is sponsored by the textile factory. If we fail to complete the task, they will take it back."

Everyone became nervous. Just to keep these five sewing machines, they had to work hard with their shirts off!

Therefore, from that day on, Liujiawan entered into a mysterious busyness, and the whole village was silent.

It was not until later, when garment and hat factories were opened in Liujiawan and Liujiawan became a well-known "workers' village", that they realized what the people in Liujiawan were doing during the quiet hours.

Liujiawan people say that learning is all about learning! Only learning!
