Chapter 1080: Why use a butcher knife to kill a chicken?
Chen Xiangdong drove over, and Lu Miao took his car directly to the bank to withdraw money for him.
Afterwards, Chen Xiangdong sent him back to his home, and he just happened to meet Ling Yuan.
There were no affordable vegetables to grow in the current season, so Lingyuan collected a lot of corn cobs and sawdust in the village to grow mushrooms.
Ling Yuan came here this time to give Lu Miao the first batch of mushrooms to try.
Lu Miao waved at the side of the road, sent Chen Xiangdong away, and ran back to the side door corridor and asked:
"What's wrong? Why are you standing here for so long and not going in?"
"Xiaobao."
Ling Yuan heard the voice and turned around, explaining awkwardly:
"This comrade probably doesn't know me and doesn't feel comfortable letting me in."
It’s not that Ling Yuan doesn’t want to go in, it’s that Xu Xiangcao doesn’t let him in.
The last time I went home to hold a housewarming party, Ling Yuan was busy with farm matters. At that time, except for him, all the other members of the Ling family came.
It is reasonable to say that Xu Xiangcao didn't know him.
Lu Miao nodded and slowly instructed Xu Xiangcao:
"This is my friend. You and Wang Xiu should recognize him. When they come, just invite them in."
"yes……"
Xu Xiangcao nodded awkwardly.
Xu Xiangcao is not stupid. How could she not know that those who came to her house must be relatives here?
But she was annoyed by those poor relatives who asked for money from her.
This time I came to Lingyuan not by bicycle as I did before, but by a second-hand pedal tricycle that I bought a while ago.
When Xu Xiangcao saw that he was riding a broken pedal tricycle and that he was pulling fruits, vegetables and other valuable things, she didn't want to let him in.
But does Xu Xiangcao dare to say this?
Lu Miao didn't look at Xu Xiangcao again, and walked ahead to invite Ling Yuan in:
"How did you get so many mushrooms? Did you grow a lot?"
"Haha, I did plant some. I originally thought it would just produce some spores, but it turned out to be quite successful. The mycelium grew thickly. I harvested over 80 kilograms of mushrooms in this first batch. There are more to come, so I estimate at least 200 to 300 kilograms!"
"So much? You can't eat it all yourself. Do you have a place to sell it? If not, I've read some information and know that several state-owned restaurants have purchase needs. How about I act as a middleman?"
"Let's not worry about that for now, let's take our time! This batch of mushrooms may look like a lot, but I only made this many. When I have some free time, Xiaoxian and I can set them up at the market over there and sell them all. State-owned restaurants require a steady supply, and I can't do that right now!"
Ling Yuan waved his hand, parked his pedal tricycle under the stone wall, and while carrying down the large basket of mushrooms, he looked around and said:
"This courtyard is really nice, it looks so grand!"
As he finished speaking, he picked up the basket and followed Lu Miao into the inner courtyard, and frankly returned to the previous topic:
"Don't worry about me. I remember your connections. How can I kill a chicken with a butcher's knife? I need you when it matters most!"
What he said made sense, so Lu Miao laughed and shook his head without saying anything more.
He invited the guest into the inner courtyard for a cup of tea and originally planned to keep him at home for dinner. However, Ling Yuan, who was standing nearby, quickly stood up and said,
"Xiaobao, Auntie, please stop busying yourself. I'm in a hurry to go back. Xiaoxian said she's discussed with the factory and will take leave for National Day tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. I told her about it when I came here, and I'll go back later to pick her up and go back with Sui Sui to celebrate the holiday together!"
Tang Mei hurriedly said, "Oh, why didn't you say so earlier? This road is not short. You should have set off earlier. Otherwise, how will you see the road when it gets dark?"
Ling Yuan touched the back of his head, just laughed "hehe" and didn't say anything.
It was definitely not possible for him to stay for dinner, so Lu Miao suggested packing some soap, hairbands and other things for him to take home.
It just so happened that Chen Xiangdong had just been here and brought a lot of things over.
Unexpectedly, when Ling Yuan heard this, he started waving his hands again:
"No, no, you must have forgotten where Xiaoxian works. We already have these at home, why would we need to take them from you?"
Ling Yuan didn't stay long after he spoke, and walked out and said:
"Okay, Xiaobao, Auntie, I'm going to go home today. I'll come to see you tomorrow when I'm not busy!"
People come suddenly and leave like a gust of wind, without any delay.
Lu Miao burst into laughter and sighed.
This is really...
The adult society is completely different from when they were studying at Renmin University and Peking University.
Everyone has a family and work to take care of, and we are so busy that we don’t even have time to get together.
Fu Jingyou came back from outside and saw her standing in front of the hanging flower gate in a daze.
After quickly setting up the bicycle, Fu Jingyou walked over to her and took her hand, and as they walked towards the inner courtyard, he asked:
"What are you thinking about? Sighing?"
Lu Miao came back to his senses, smiled faintly and said:
"Nothing, Ling Yuan just came over, gave me some mushrooms, and then left. He was so busy that he didn't even have time to stay for dinner. I was just thinking that it's been a while since we've gotten together."
"If you want to get together, that's easy. One day when you're free, talk to Xiangdong and Meizi about taking a day off. We can go to the farm in Lingyuan together."
"Okay! Oh, by the way, how's things going at the hardware factory?"
"It'll take another two days for all the formalities to be finalized, but I've already got the key to the front door. I figured since I have nothing better to do these two days, I might as well get some lime powder and whitewash the walls. I'll also install a couple more rows of light bulbs later so it'll be brighter when I work."
Lu Miao listened and nodded.
Thinking of what Chen Xiangdong said at that time, she started talking to Fu Jingyou about Dandan again.
Fu Jingyou nodded and said:
"That's easy to say. I'll ask Xiangdong and the others for help when I paint the walls. I'll talk to them in person then."
Many things in small hardware factories are similar to those in electromechanical factories, but they are smaller in scale and their production is not as comprehensive.
Dandan was originally brought into the mechanical and electrical factory by Fu Jingyou. After Fu Jingyou left, Dandan continued to work there.
Over the past year, I have definitely learned a lot.
If he really came to work together, he would really be able to help Fu Jingyou a lot.
Dandan has a good personality and is one of his own, so Fu Jingyou is definitely relieved.
The only problem is the salary.
He's just starting out, so he definitely can't offer the same high salary as a skilled worker in a state-owned factory...
However, looking at these issues again, there is no need to rush.
Let’s see how to talk later.
Lu Miao nodded, shook his hand and said:
"Then I guess we'll have to wait a few days. Xiangdong came over this afternoon. I just entrusted him with something else. He's going to take Dandan to Wuxi Taihu Lake in the next few days."
"Wuxi Taihu Lake?"
"Well, the pearl farmer I met in Guangzhou is from there, and the garment factory is still short of accessories. I plan to ask Xiangdong to go over there and see if he can find that person again."
As for what to do after finding the person, there is no need to go into details.
What else can be done?
Buy pearls, of course!
