Ye Cangshu (zhú) is on duty tonight.
Out of boredom, he stood in front of his desk, supporting himself with his hands on the table while exercising.
I was thinking that my apprentice would be starting school soon, and the gift he prepared seemed a little inappropriate. How about going to the supply and marketing cooperative to have a look?
Just as I was thinking deeply, an extremely excited voice came in.
"Brother, look what good stuff I brought you?"
Ye Cangshu paused and then continued.
Alas, this guy Shu Baishu has been thrown into the base for such a long time, but he is still so noisy and has not made any progress at all!
Shu Baishu rushed into the office like a gust of wind and put the bag in his hand on the table.
Seeing that Ye Cangshu ignored him, he muttered a few words, then opened the package reluctantly and took out the things inside.
"Brother, look at these two ointments, the effects are really, really good!"
Ye Cangshu stopped what he was doing when he heard that, reached out and picked up a box, opened it and smelled it, then frowned:
"The herbs used in the recipe are common, you are exaggerating again.
I said, when will you be more stable? You..."
"Stop, please stop preaching, I really didn't lie to you this time.
This ointment was made by a military wife in our base. She made more than 10,000 boxes and donated them to the base. If the effect was average, she wouldn’t have made so many.”
As Shu Baishu spoke, he pulled up his sleeves to reveal his arm: "I scratched myself yesterday, and the bleeding stopped immediately after applying the ointment.
I also asked other injured people to test the swelling and pain relief ointment, and the effect was also very obvious. "
"Is that military dependent called Qian Xiaolan?" Ye Cangshu's eyes sparkled.
Shu Baishu was stunned and immediately said, "Brother, she is a married military dependent!"
Ye Cangshu slapped him on the forehead: "What are you thinking about all day long, you bastard? That's my disciple, your nephew!"
"Oh, your disciple is my nephew, that's good, that's good!" Shu Baishu patted his chest and screamed:
"What? Your apprentice? Senior brother, when did you accept an apprentice? How come I didn't know?"
"I haven't officially become your disciple yet, but with your noisy personality, why should I let you know in advance?"
Shu Baishu was sad. He threw the ointment down and returned to the base overnight.
Early the next morning, Qian Xiaolan was stopped on her way to the factory.
She wondered, "Is there anything wrong with this comrade?"
"Hello, nephew! Um, let me introduce myself. I am your uncle Shu Baishu, and Ye Cangshu is my senior brother. Are you curious about why our names are both names of medicines? Because we were adopted by our master since we were young."
"Hello, uncle-master." Qian Xiaolan greeted him obediently.
Shu Baishu responded excitedly, then said a little embarrassedly, “It’s like this, I have a question I want to ask you.
I thought about it all night, but I couldn't figure out why you could use a few common medicines to make the ointment so effective?"
"Of course, if you have any secret recipe, you don't have to tell me. I'm just purely curious."
"I don't have a secret recipe. I just maximize the medicinal effects of the herbs when I purify them."
Shu Baishu understood, this is still a secret recipe.
He didn't ask any more questions, stuffed something into Qian Xiaolan's hand and ran away.
"Master nephew, this is a gift from your uncle. I will go back to work first. If you have anything, please come to the base to find me. Although I studied Western medicine, I have been studying Chinese medicine since I was enlightened until I was sixteen."
Qian Xiaolan responded politely, looked at the receding figure, curled the corners of her lips and opened the woolen bag in her hand.
This uncle-master was really interesting. He put the gift in the bag she gave to the base and gave it to her.
Qian Xiaolan opened the bag and found a peace locket inside.
She blinked and accepted the gift with a smile.
Tomorrow they will all go to Anshi to report for work, so Qian Xiaolan has to arrange the factory's affairs today.
She felt very relieved to have her grandfather and second cousin looking after such a small factory.
But there were still some things she had to clarify with the team leader before the products started selling.
The brigade headquarters at this time.
Several cadres were sitting together chatting.
"This factory is doing really well. There are fewer women gossiping in the brigade now."
"Isn't it? My wife is busy memorizing new words while cooking and washing clothes. In her free time, she even put a sand table on the table to learn characters."
"Well, that's good, but the factory has been open for almost a month, and all the products are piled up in the warehouse. What if they can't be sold?"
"Don't worry about it, can't you see the Hong Kong guy who is helping out in the factory?
With his connections, there will be no problem selling the goods.
What we are worried about now is, if the product sells well, will she give us 20% of the three-month net profit as promised? "
"According to me, three months was too short. It should be..."
"Shut up!" Lian Jianghai couldn't bear to listen any more.
He pointed at everyone with a complicated expression: "Excuse me, to run this factory, how much money did you give, or how much effort did you put in?
Why should someone else share so much of the profits from the factory he founded with you?"
"Do you think that since they are using our brigade's name, we should let you take advantage of them?
What a dream! I tell you, Comrade Qian was willing to set up a factory in Xiawan Brigade because she wanted to subsidize us poor people!
You can go and ask around yourself, how many new self-employed individuals have appeared in Yangcheng since last year?
Comrades, times have changed! Self-employed people will no longer be arrested!
If you don't know your own worth and disappoint her, you will end up with nothing!"
Qian Xiaolan had just approached the brigade headquarters when she heard Lian Jianghai's words. She stopped and listened quietly.
Without giving it much thought, she knew that some people must have started to have some ideas.
Now, she mainly depends on Lian Jianghai's attitude.
Everyone in the room looked embarrassed and murmured under their breath after hearing what Lian Jianghai said.
"Aren't we just talking about this?
How can we really have such thoughts? "
"That's absolutely not possible! We are all grateful people. Comrade Qian is righteous. He not only taught the women in our brigade to read and write, but also provided jobs for many people.
Before, it was equivalent to providing free medical treatment to everyone!
Good comrades like her deserve respect from all of us, and their character is worth learning from by all of us!"
The brigade accountant spoke with great righteousness, and Qian Xiaolan knew that she had been discovered.
She appeared at the door with a smile on her face.
"What Accountant Lian said is very good! But I am not as good as you say. As for me, if others are sincere to me, I will be sincere to them in return.
But if someone stabs me with a knife, I will not only stab him back, but also make him wish he were dead!
You have to know that as a doctor, I know a lot about how to make people feel very painful but not die."
Upon hearing this, everyone in the brigade headquarters changed their expressions.
