"Okay, I got it. Thank you, Brother Li. It's not far. I'll be back soon." Lin Tian replied.
"Go early and come back early" the purchasing manager waved to him while smoking.
It was said to be going to the countryside, but in fact it was the later Tong County. It took half an hour to get there by bike, but we were stopped by the militia as soon as we entered the village.
"What are you doing? What are you doing?" The two men said they were militiamen, but in fact they were just two half-grown kids guarding the intersection.
Lin Tian got off his bicycle, pushed it forward, and gave two candies to the two people. "I'm here to buy from the city. Please take me to your village chief."
The two children looked at each other and said, "Okay, then come with me!"
Not far into the village is the village chief's house. At that time, a village with a complete yard and two adobe houses was considered a luxury house. It seems that the village chief lives in the former landlord's house, and the cooking is still in a brick house.
Lin Tian pretended to take out the letter of introduction from his bag, but actually took it out from the space and handed it to the village chief, then said.
"Our purchasing agent was supposed to come today, but he had something urgent to do, so I came to help him. He said that he had asked you to help buy eggs and old hens."
After reading the letter of introduction, the village chief handed it back to Lin Tian and said, "It's definitely not stored. It snowed two days ago, so who knows when you will come. The old hens are ready. How about this, wait a minute and I'll ask them to bring all the eggs."
Soon, many people came from all over the village, some with three and some with five, and soon they had collected most of the basket.
Lin Tian paid the money to everyone one by one, and then gave the village chief 4 yuan for the hen.
The old hen and eggs were installed on the frame of the bicycle.
Lin Tian handed the village chief a cigarette and said, "Brother, I have something else that I want to trouble you with. My family has a small piece of land in the city and I want to buy some seeds. Is it convenient for you?"
"Okay, it's not a big deal. It depends on what you want," said the village chief with a smile, showing his big yellow teeth.
"Buy two kilograms of corn and wheat seeds, and then buy some other fruits and vegetables. Just buy whatever you have. Any price is fine." Lin Tian said casually.
"Okay, just wait," the village chief said and went into the house. After a while, he took out a pile of messy bags.
Lin Tian also squatted on the ground and looked through it, "Hey, there are really a lot of things. Everything you need, carrots, white radishes, peppers, coriander, everything you can think of."
The village chief wrapped several packets with paper.
"Hey, can you calculate how much it is?" Lin Tianshou said.
"It's not worth much, you can give it as you see fit. Just ask Li to come more often," said the village chief. In fact, at this time in the countryside, people are often willing to go to the countryside to do purchases, because when they go to the countryside to do purchases, the chickens and eggs they usually raise at home can not only be exchanged for money, but also for various daily necessities.
"No, you can't take it for free. Let me give you 5 yuan, and you give me some corn and wheat seeds." Today he took out 5 yuan from his pocket and stuffed it into the old village chief's pocket.
All the things were tied up in the back frame, and the village chief delivered them to the village entrance.
Lin Tian rode his bike slowly forward. Seeing that the village was some distance away, he reached out and stored all the eggs in the space. He didn't want to break everything, mainly because the road was bumpy, and many eggs would definitely be broken if he carried them back.
Lin Tian walked back slowly, and when he arrived at the grocery store, it was already time to get off work. After parking his bicycle at the door, Lin Tian shouted to the store, "I'm back, come out and help!"
Wang Yigui, a colleague who heard the voice, limped out to help hold the bike. Lin Tian unloaded the basket on the back of the bicycle. At this time, Li Wenhua, the purchasing manager, also heard the voice and came out from the inner room. He saw the large basket of things that Lin Tian brought back.
"Hey, you're really good! You brought a lot of stuff." Purchaser Li looked at the full basket in surprise.
"We were just talking about getting off work, it's time to get off work, why haven't you come back yet?" Wang Yigui said.
"Oh, these were not collected in advance. I collected them right away when I got there, so it took some time. Let's go, let's go into the house and count them quickly, and then don't delay getting off work." Seeing that Purchasing Manager Li had already picked up one side of the basket, Lin Tian picked it up and walked into the house too.
After a while, the three people counted all the eggs in the basket. Everyone was surprised that none of them were rotten. After settling the accounts with the accountant, they said goodbye and went home.
