"Yubai, I feel fine now, let's go together." Shen Qingli stepped forward and said.
"Don't force yourself. If you don't feel well, just stay home." Zhou Yubai looked at Shen Qingli and nodded in agreement after making sure that her complexion looked better than before.
Song Que and Zhou Yubai loaded the bean sprouts into the car together. Originally, the tofu was also to be made in the yard. The captain took into consideration that Shen Qingli was pregnant and her body would not be able to handle getting up too early.
So Zhuzi's family was arranged to make tofu.
The method of making tofu was also taught by Shen Qingli. Zhuzi's ancestors also made tofu, and Zhuzi's father also learned from his father when he was young. Now he can pick it up without any effort.
The beans that Shen Qingli gave were soaked in space water, and the tofu made from them had a special fragrance.
Zhuzi's father thinks it tastes delicious even if you eat it directly with the sauce.
After Zhou Yubai and his friends packed the bean sprouts, they went to Zhuzi's house to pack tofu.
For the first delivery, the captain specifically asked the village accountant to go along. This was better for Zhou Yubai and his wife. Otherwise, both the money and the goods would be handled by the two of them, and someone might say something unpleasant.
Zhou Yubai and Shen Qingli were both smart people, so they naturally understood the captain's intention behind the arrangement.
They loaded the car and met the accountant at the entrance of the village.
We all went to the machine shop together.
The entrance of the machinery factory.
Zhou Yubai went over with the letter of introduction. The factory manager at the gate had already greeted him. It was a rare opportunity for his old classmate to ask him to do something, or to solve a problem for him, so he had to take the initiative.
"You are the comrades from Kaoshantun. Come, our factory director has made all the arrangements. I will take you to the cafeteria to meet the comrades over there." The guard cheerfully invited everyone to go to the cafeteria.
The comrades in the cafeteria arranged for us to be weighed.
"Comrade, bean sprouts are 520 kilograms, and tofu is 110 kilograms."
"Just settle it according to our previous agreement of 500 kilograms and 100 bills. This is the first delivery, and the extra ones are our gifts to everyone." Zhou Yubai said.
"Thank you first, comrade. However, our factory director has specifically instructed that we must not shortchange the weight and must report actual sales." The comrades in the cafeteria said cheerfully. Zhou Yubai's words made people feel comfortable.
However, their factory director personally instructed that if the amount is less, it should be reported as 500 kilograms or 100 kilograms, and if it is more, it must be reported truthfully.
He didn't dare to go against the factory director's wishes, as the factory director obviously wanted to take care of these people.
"Comrade, how do you make your bean sprouts and tofu? They look better than what we bought before." A comrade from the cafeteria asked with a smile.
"The main reason is that the water in our village near the mountain is better." Shen Qingli said in a gentle voice.
The comrades in the cafeteria looked over then, and when they saw Shen Qingli, they blushed and were too embarrassed to speak. Is this a country girl?
It’s so beautiful.
He didn't know if she was engaged or not. He felt that it would be too easy for Shen Qingli to marry a worker, even a cadre.
"Wife, you are pregnant, so go to the car with Queque and wait for us." Zhou Yubai said.
In one sentence, the comrades in the cafeteria felt regretful instantly. She was married and pregnant, which was such a pity. However, this comrade was also good-looking and had an extraordinary temperament. He did not look like a peasant.
Among these four people, only the middle-aged man looked like he was from the countryside.
Accountant: Thank you for your kind look.
"Ahem, Comrade Zhou, I'll take you to the finance department to settle the bill. Bean sprouts in our factory are 20 cents per pound, and tofu is 24 cents per pound."
"The bean sprouts are 104, and the large tofu is 26.4, a total of 130 yuan and 0.4 yuan."
"Okay, thank you." Zhou Yubai signaled the accountant to follow him to get the money, and he went out directly to find Shen Qingli and Song Que.
After waiting for a while, the accountant walked out of the machine factory. His steps were still a little unsteady, and he felt that the money in his pocket was a little unreal...
At this time, soybeans and mung beans are 1.5 cents per pound.
They can make ten kilograms of bean sprouts from one kilogram of soybeans, and five kilograms of tofu from one kilogram of soybeans.
The accountant's brain was a little insufficient at the moment. They should have used a total of 74 kilograms of soybeans and mung beans, with a cost price of 11.1 yuan.
They earned a total of one hundred and thirty-four yuan, in other words, a profit of one hundred and nineteen quick three yuan!
The accountant was so excited!
How come? How come there is so much money? In just these few days, a few women comrades have earned so much money!
"Accountant Zhang." Zhou Yubai called.
"Ah, ah." Accountant Zhang came back to his senses and grinned innocently, "Yu Bai, tell me, I was a little excited when I was doing the accounts just now."
Shen Qingli and Song Que also smiled at each other.
"We are going to Song Que's house and pack some things. You should wait for us to go back together, or you can go back first."
"I'll go back with you, but I won't go to Comrade Song's house. I'll go to the supply and marketing cooperative and the vegetable company." Accountant Zhang said as he stuffed the money into Zhou Yubai's pocket. "I'll go out and look around. I'll leave the money with you. Give it back to me when we get back to the village."
"Okay." Zhou Yubai did not refuse. He knew what this money meant to their village.
The four of them acted separately.
Zhou Yubai was finally going to meet Shao Qi. He was a little excited. He hurriedly drove and soon arrived at Song Que's house.
Songque's family.
Ermao was practicing and when he heard the sound he stood up quickly.
"Qian, it's us." Shen Qingli called out, letting Ermao know that there were more people coming than just her and Song Que.
"Sister." Ermao responded and opened the door.
"Has that person woke up?" Shen Qingli asked.
"Not awake yet." Ermao looked at his brother-in-law with envy as he strode into the room and went straight to the man's room.
When Zhou Yubai walked in, he saw Shao Qi, who was wrapped in thick gauze and looked extremely haggard. His eyes welled up and he sat down beside Shao Qi.
Shen Qingli also came in.
"How long will it take for him to wake up?" Zhou Yubai asked.
"It'll be almost done. You guys can talk in the room later and I'll close the door." Shen Qingli said softly. She patted Zhou Yubai's shoulder and turned to leave.
Zhou Yubai's breathing slowed down. He never thought that he would see Shao Qi alive again.
It’s good to be alive, as long as you are alive there is hope.
Shao Qi woke up slowly. He opened his eyes with difficulty and felt that his body was much more relaxed than before. When he opened his eyes, he saw Zhou Yubai's handsome face.
Shao Qi's first reaction was to rub his eyes.
"I dreamed of Yu Bai again."
"This time it looks clearer than before. How come you don't look old? You don't look haggard, and you look more energetic than me."
Shao Qi raised his hand and punched Zhou Yubai on the shoulder.
The real touch made Shao Qi stunned.
He looked at Zhou Yubai, whose eyes were red.
"Yu, Yu Bai..."
"Shao Qi!" Zhou Yubai hugged Shao Qi tightly. He knew Shao Qi was injured, so he didn't use any strength.
"It's really you, it's really you, Yubai!" Shao Qi shouted excitedly, holding Zhou Yubai's shoulders tightly with both hands, "You, you kid, I, I."
He was somewhat incoherent.
The same thing happened to Zhou Yubai. The two grown men cried and laughed at the same time, and it took them a while to calm down.
"Why are you here, Yubai?"
