When Qian Duoduo arrived at the tofu shop, she found Zhang the tofu maker and said, "Uncle Zhang, this is the order. Please take a look."
When Zhang the tofu maker saw that it was an order from Mao'ershan Commune, he smiled and said, "I was just wondering, we have the county's orders, we have the Honeybee Commune's orders, why not Mao'ershan's..."
Qian Duoduo said, "Uncle Zhang, you see, we need to deliver these tofu and dried bean curd now. Let Sister Chunmei make the dried bean curd this afternoon."
After all, I still need to boil and soak it with seasonings after finishing, which takes time. The sooner I finish, the sooner the workers can rest!
Zhang the tofu maker nodded and said, "We don't have many soybeans left."
Qian Duoduo asked, "How many more days can it last?"
Although Zhang the tofu maker felt that Qian Duoduo wasn't from the tofu shop, he was able to secure orders based on his own abilities, which was impressive. So he said, "If it's just tofu, it will take 7 days. If we make dried tofu together, it might only last 3 days."
The autumn harvest is just around the corner, and all our other activities have to give way to it, so I'm not in a hurry.
Qian Duoduo said, "Uncle Zhang, we have signed an agreement with every state-run restaurant. If you don't act in accordance with the agreement, they can complain to the commune secretary or Secretary Lu."
Zhang the tofu maker was taken aback and asked in surprise, "Is that even possible?"
Qian Duoduo said, "Uncle Zhang, we are now the village's tofu factory. Since it's a factory, look at all the factories in the county, which one of them takes a break? Besides, we still have a lot of orders."
Zhang the tofu maker shook his head silently: "No, the workers in the factories in the county town pay much better than those in our village!"
Qian Duoduo said with a smile, "Uncle Zhang, keep up the good work! If one day, the tofu workshop in Beian Village develops into a tofu factory, then Director Zhang, you'll have even more to think about!"
Zhang the tofu maker was taken aback for a moment, then laughed and said, "Hehe, if that day ever comes, I'll definitely be laughing in my sleep!"
Qian Duoduo smiled and put down the seasonings, saying, "Uncle Zhang, these are the seasonings for making five-spice tofu, but this is not all of them. I didn't see some of them in the side dishes section. When I made it last time, I had to pick some of the ingredients in the mountains. My third brother and I will go up the mountain to pick some later. It should last us for a while."
Zhang the tofu maker nodded: "What's up? Your third brother's back?"
Qian Duoduo nodded: "I just got back today. I just saw it too. Let's go for a walk on the mountain later."
Zhang the tofu maker nodded. These days, if you want to get some meat, you usually have to go up the mountain to hunt wild game. After all, the commune's non-staple food store requires meat coupons. Of course, Qian Mao is in the county committee, so he won't lack all kinds of coupons, but who wouldn't like it for free?
Qian Duoduo smiled and said, "Uncle Zhang, I've left the things here. Please keep them safe. I'll come over tonight to prepare the ingredients and make spiced tofu!"
Watching Qian Duoduo's departing figure, Zhang the tofu maker said, "None of the brigade leader's children are easy to get. Everyone thinks this little girl is only good because of the brigade leader's favoritism, but her abilities are real. The tofu shop was able to open because of her. It seems that the brigade leader's third son still doesn't have a girlfriend, but this little girl is already getting noticed."
Sure enough, news of Qian Duoduo bringing in orders for the tofu shop spread throughout Beian Village, and some families with sons were already thinking about it.
Qian Duoduo didn't care about those things. She went to the brigade headquarters and found Qian Mao, who was helping Qian Sheng organize documents.
Qian Mao smiled when he saw Qian Duoduo: "Duoduo, you've finally arrived. I was helping Secretary Lu pack things in the county, and when I got home, my dad dragged me out to be a conscript."
Qian Sheng's eyes widened: "What? If it weren't for the fact that you can organize documents for Secretary Lu, do you think I would want to come to you?"
Qian Mao said, "Dad, you didn't have to come looking for me!"
Qian Sheng narrowed his eyes slightly: "What's wrong? Is it that I, as the father, can't replace you, my chief secretary?"
Qian Mao said with a grin, "Hey, Dad, I just wanted to chat with my cute little sister. Also, I brought back a gift for Duo Duo from the provincial capital, but I haven't had a chance to give it to her yet!"
Qian Sheng nodded this time: "Oh, I see. Then go ahead!"
Qian Mao knew that as long as he brought Duo Duo out, his father's principles would no longer be principles. If Duo Duo said the sky was blue, her father would also say the sky was blue. If Duo Duo said the sun was square, her father would look at the round sun in the sky and say: My daughter is right!
Qian Duoduo smiled as she saw Qian Mao using her as a shield. When the siblings returned home, Qian Mao took out a white dress with yellow daisies that he had bought from the provincial capital and said with a smile, "This is a dress that my third brother saw in a store in the provincial capital. All the girls there wear it. I thought that if my Duoduo wore it, she would definitely look very pretty."
Qian Duoduo smiled as she looked at the dress in front of her and nodded. Third Brother's taste was pretty good; at least this dress looked somewhat fresh and cute, and it suited Qian Duoduo's aesthetic.
She went to her room, changed into a dress, and came out to ask Qian Mao, who was tidying up the yard, "Third Brother, how is it?"
Hearing the voice behind him, Qian Mao turned around and his eyes lit up. He couldn't help but nod. His younger sister was undeniably beautiful. Her tall figure made her a walking clothes hanger. This dress looked stunning on her.
Qian Duoduo said with a smile, "Third Brother, I love this dress so much! Thank you, Third Brother! When you get married, please let me do your wife's bridal makeup and hair!"
