The brigade’s money at the time was not enough to buy all these red cloths.
Moreover, Lu Xinghe also pieced together a gap in it, a whole one thousand meters of red cloth, as long as he advanced the funds.
This resale earns me one hundred yuan.
No wonder there is such a buzz on the black market in this era.
Those who work will die of exhaustion, and those who resell will die of overeating!
After saying goodbye to Su Xingruo, Lu Xinghe and Su Xingruo finally had some time to themselves.
At this time, the production brigade would usually spend thirty yuan to invite a film projection team to show movies in the brigade at the end of the year.
And this money is not borne by the brigade, but by every family in the village.
Movie projectionist is one of the most popular jobs in this era.
And they are all cadres.
Even Lu Xinghe from the past has never seen one at this age, let alone He Xiaoyu.
Even if the village could afford to hire a film projection team, someone of her status was not worthy of watching it.
At Lu Xinghe's suggestion, the two decided to splurge.
Movie tickets are 20 cents each, and you can buy two at a time!
Not only that, the two also bought fried broad beans and popcorn.
Because they had promised to buy maltose for their sister, they bought a few pieces before watching the movie.
Due to the changes in the situation at this time, this year was the year with the fewest films scheduled in cinemas.
There are only two movies to watch in the whole year.
One is a journey, the other is a pearl on the sea.
They all tell stories about educated youth going to the countryside.
People in the county had watched it many times, so not many people attended the show that Lu Xinghe and his companions attended.
This also allowed the two of them to have a sweet date at the cinema.
After coming out of the cinema, the two of them had a luxurious meal at the state-owned restaurant!
However, when He Xiaoyu tasted the expensive food in the restaurant, she always felt that it was not as delicious as the one cooked by Lu Xinghe.
"Lao Xiao, why do I feel that your cooking is better than that of the chefs in state-owned restaurants?"
He Xiaoyu lowered her head and asked in a low voice.
"Because I like to turn the dishes over when I cook?" Lu Xinghe answered subconsciously.
He Xiaoyu, who originally thought that Lu Xinghe might have some secret martial arts, suddenly felt her head buzzing.
I always feel like there's something wrong with what he said.
Lu Xinghe, who was full and wanted to cough, raised the corners of his mouth and continued to explain:
"To fry the dish well, you need to flip it over repeatedly. If you keep frying one side, the pan will get burnt and the water will dry up easily.
So you have to be thorough, fry the front side first, fry the back side, and then fry the sides.
From time to time, you need to water it and add some water.
You should have more variety in cooking on weekdays, otherwise you will always get tired of cooking the same dish.
You also need to use love and care, so that the dishes you cook will be so delicious that you will lick the plate! ”
He Xiaoyu was listening in a daze, and the old man who was eavesdropping behind them secretly gave Lu Xinghe a thumbs up.
And just when the two were about to leave.
Li Ruonan was breathing heavily, standing at the door of the state-owned hotel, waving to Lu Xinghe continuously.
"Brother Lu, sister-in-law, I finally found you! I said the silhouette I just saw must be you!"
In fact, Li Ruonan had been looking for the two people for the whole morning. When Lu Xinghe came out of the cotton mill and passed by the scrap collection station, he was seen by Li Ruonan.
But after she ran out of the scrap collection station, Lu Xinghe and the other person disappeared completely.
How could Li Ruonan have guessed that those two movies had been played over and over again and that there were still people watching them.
She searched back and forth between the black market and the supply and marketing cooperative for a long time before she remembered that Lu Xinghe had asked her to buy steamed buns and fried dough sticks for her before, so she went to the state-owned store to try her luck.
"Little Ma Lian, have you eaten? Come in!" Lu Xinghe replied, "I heard from your sister-in-law that she saw you at the scrap collection station? Why do you want to join the scrap collection business?"
Seeing that Li Ruonan sat down without any concern, she tore off a piece of steamed bun and started to clean up the bottom of the plate. He Xiaoyu went to the instructor and ordered another dish.
The receptionists at that time were official employees of the state-owned factory and were not as conscientious in serving customers as the later ones.
"Hey, Brother Lu, I'll give you this money. After deducting the cost, I can still give you another seven yuan. I'll also keep the account. Let's take a look together."
This is the money I earned from selling felt socks before.
After returning from a new life, naturally one cannot follow the same rules as before.
The more flowers bloom, the smaller the mosquito legs are. Without doing anything, he has earned more than seven yuan, which is equivalent to half a month's salary of a county worker.
"There's no need to look at this. You came to me just for this?" When Lu Xinghe saw Li Ruonan licking the plate, the corners of his mouth twitched wildly when he thought of what he had just said.
"That's not the case. Last time, didn't you say that the house you live in is old and you were worried that it would leak when the snow melted? You also wanted to build a doghouse or chicken coop or something like that? I found something good for you!"
"Could it be the scrap collection station that did it?" He Xiaoyu asked doubtfully.
“That’s it!!”
Li Ruonan cleaned up all the dishes like a whirlwind.
Even though she kept making money in the county town, she was reluctant to spend any of it on herself. She took it all home and gave it to her father to prove that she was no worse than the boys.
When the three of them arrived at the scrap collection station, Li Ruonan greeted the old man familiarly.
"Uncle, these are my two good friends. I'm bringing them to pick up some scraps. Don't worry, you'll be there!"
Judging from the smooth process, it’s obvious that Li Ruonan has done this many times.
The old man was guarding the door, sitting on a wooden stool that was about to break, and nodded.
This stool is exactly the same as the one in the state-owned restaurant, except for a slight flaw.
At this time, the scrap collection station lacked everything except the things discarded by various state-owned factories.
"Come on! Come on, Brother Lu, look at what good stuff I got for you!"
Just below the fertilizer bag that Li Ruonan opened, rolls of tarpaulin paper were neatly arranged.
Some of them will have marks from nails, but as long as they are laid properly, these marks will not have any effect at all.
"These were discarded by the Forestry Bureau's Woodworking Factory. I hid them as soon as they were delivered here. There are also some discarded dining cabinets from state-owned restaurants.
That’s a ready-made chicken coop. What do you think? I’m nice enough, right?
With so many good things, two dollars for your errands isn't too much, right? ”
Li Ruonan pinched her waist, her acne-stained face looked incredibly pure under the sunlight.
Seventeen or eighteen years old is the time when she grows up. After just a few days of not seeing her, the little cherry blossoms have the potential to turn into little buns.
"Three pieces. I'll give you three pieces. Will you bring them back to me?"
Lu Xinghe stretched out three fingers.
It would be inconvenient for him to put such obvious things into the space.
But when he entered the scrap collection station, he saw the real good stuff!
But this is not a good time to take the money. I will come here by myself when I have time later.
"Deal! My brother Lu is the most generous!!"
