"Yes!" Zhang Xingrong nodded. "Captain, I know there are many people in the brigade who can weave things. As far as I know, our province doesn't have any products in this area yet. I think we can give it a try! But whether it will succeed or not, I'll have to wait until I go to the supply and marketing cooperative to see."
Wei Dinghui weighed the options for a while before saying, "You can go and give it a try. Just tell me if you need anything."
But he felt his hope was slim. She was from a small production team, and even if she went to the county, no one might pay attention to her, let alone the city. But since she said she wanted to give it a try, then he decided to give it a try. Finding a job for the brigade wouldn't be bad, after all, the Hongyun Production Brigade was really poor.
"Thank you, Captain!" Zhang Xingrong took the production team's certificate, borrowed the commune's tractor, and hurried back to pick up the things to go to the city.
As soon as she got back, she ran into Xu Weiyin who came looking for her.
"Why are you so busy lately?"
Zhang Xingrong was packing her things and said, "I'm going to the city to sell some things."
With that, he asked the brigade's tractor driver, Gao Quanfu, to carry the things out. Gao Quanfu was a shy young man, blushing as he went out carrying the things. Worried that Zhang Xingrong, a girl, would have too much to carry, he carried as much as he could.
"Selling things?" Xu Weiyin was idle and said, "I'll go too."
Zhang Xingrong paused, turned around and asked her, "We're going to the city. It's going to be tiring. Can you bear the hardship?"
Xu Weiyin had already gone up to help move things and said, "What kind of crying did you not endure in the production team?"
"That's true."
The two of them carried their things out of the mountain pass together.
After getting the things, the three of them made a tractor together and headed to the department store in the city.
Xu Weiyin wondered, "Why not go to the supply and marketing cooperative in the county?"
Zhang Xingrong smiled mysteriously: "There are more people in the city's department store!"
Xu Weiyin thought about it and didn't ask any more questions. She couldn't help but ask what the cloth bag was, and Zhang Xingrong smiled mysteriously again. She simply didn't ask, and said she would find out when she got there.
The tractor rumbled along, not as fast as a car, but fortunately they didn't have to stop and change vehicles, so an hour and a half later, they finally arrived at the city's department store. Their car stopped at the back door to unload the goods.
Zhang Xingrong ordered, "Let's move the things to the front door and find a place to put them."
Xu Weiyin and Gao Quanfu both understood why they didn’t put it in the car. It would be much safer to put it in the car!
Zhang Xingrong said mysteriously, "Just follow my instructions and put it in front of the department store."
With that, the car drove forward again. They found a vacant spot, in the bicycle parking lot next to the department store, parked the tractor, and laid out the knitting, placing it prominently. Zhang Xingrong tinkered with it for a while, according to her own aesthetic. She even added a few wild fruits to the fruit bowl.
When Xu Weiyin saw these woven products, her eyes showed admiration. Then when she saw Zhang Xingrong displaying them like works of art, she couldn't help but show amazement!
"These things are beautiful. Are you going to sell them here?"
Zhang Xingrong shook her head. "That's against the rules. I'm just borrowing a place to put them. Comrade Gao Quanfu, you stay here and watch over the things. We'll go find the person in charge of the department store. That way, if someone comes to ask about them, just tell them we're from the Hongyun Production Brigade and we need to give these things to the department store. We're not sure if they want them. If someone wants to buy them, don't refuse them yet. Just say you're not sure if they want them, so you don't know whether you're selling them or not."
Gao Quanfu had never seen such a gesture before and was a little scared: "I...I can't speak."
