Chapter 181 Someone is eavesdropping
"What are you doing? I was just saying it casually. Look how scared you are!" The political commissar patted Zhang Bin on the shoulder.
"Why are you all standing there? Sit down quickly! This food will get cold if you don't eat it now!" said Zhang Bin's wife, holding a plate of freshly fried salt and pepper bean cakes.
"What is this?" The political commissar asked curiously after everyone sat down.
"You introduce yourself!" Zhang Bin waved to Li Wen.
"To answer the leader, this is called bean cake, which is made from mung beans. It can be braised or fried. Sprinkle it with pepper and salt. It is a good side dish when drinking. You will know after you try it!"
After hearing what Li Wen said, several people picked up their chopsticks and tasted it. It was indeed crispy and tasted better than peanuts when eaten with wine. It was sprinkled with barbecue ingredients, which Li Meng brought specially for Li Wen.
"This dish is vegetarian chicken. Put some in when roasting meat. It tastes better than meat!"
"This is thousand sheets. It's delicious when stir-fried with leeks or celery. It can also be made into soup or eaten raw!"
"This is bean sprouts. You can stir-fry it or make soup."
Li Wen introduced several dishes in succession, each of which was delicious, and several leaders nodded repeatedly.
Finally, Li Wen went to the kitchen and brought out two more plates, introducing them: "This is kimchi, this is fermented bean curd, this is sour radish, and this is spicy dried radish. These are all produced by my sister's village processing factory. They are all my sister's exclusive recipes. Leaders, please try them!"
These are all Li Wen's own. Li Meng prepared them for him. He is not brave enough to open the instructor's things and share them. The instructor will definitely beat him if he is so protective of his food.
Several leaders praised the food highly, and while they were toasting each other, Li Meng successfully got the order for the military canteen that she had been dreaming of.
This was a decision made by the highest leader of the army. Li Wen was so happy that his face hurt from laughing all night. Now his sister should praise him!
Before leaving, his sister told him that if he could confirm it, he should remember to call her directly, and that Director Jiang of the supply and marketing cooperative would then talk to Zhou Hui who delivered the goods every day.
Li Wen decided to tell his sister the good news early tomorrow morning. Finally, after helping the instructor clean up, Li Wen went back humming a contented tune.
lead? All the leaders were drunk and were helped back home one by one by their guards. They were all in the same family compound, so nothing serious could happen.
Have a good night’s sleep!
The next morning, after breakfast, Pei Yu was about to follow the convoy back. Li Wen gave him a few instructions, and they said goodbye to each other, then watched the convoy leave.
Pei Yu was very happy when he knew that Li Wen had helped Meng Meng successfully get the order for the army canteen. Meng Meng would definitely be very happy to have the order.
"Sister Meng! Brother Li Wen called me. Director Jiang told me that the army's bean products order has been received. Can the dried radish, kimchi, and fermented bean curd be changed to larger packages?"
Zhou Hui brought good news when he came back from delivering the goods. Captain Huang was so happy that he went crazy. The army canteen even asked their village to place an order. Oh my God! This is enough for him to brag about for a long time!
It's not even a month yet, but by the time the monthly payments come in, it will be equal to their village's annual income.
"I will go to the town tomorrow to ask Director Jiang for help to find a way to find a big jar. If I supply pickles to the army canteen, I can use a big jar to store them."
Li Meng thought about it and made a bold decision. His business would grow bigger and bigger in the future, so it was inevitable to have a car, and he also had to train a few drivers himself.
Dali said before that he could introduce someone to the transport team to study, but the selection of people is a problem.
How to choose?
"Uncle! Come here for a moment, I have something to tell you." Li Meng called Captain Huang over and told him about the driver.
"What! You can really send people in there to learn how to drive? Is that true?" Captain Huang was surprised. Is Li Meng so capable? If this news gets out, the villagers will be furious.
Anyone who makes a living in the soil, especially young men, wouldn’t want to drive!
"Uncle! It's true. It's up to you to choose the candidate. It's best if he is literate, hardworking, and not too old. I have a candidate here, the youngest son of Ma Da's family. I also need to find three more people. Do you have any candidate in mind?"
Li Meng tilted her head to look at him, waiting for his answer.
"Don't you like any of the educated youth at this educated youth point? They are all literate!" Captain Huang asked sincerely.
"Except for the new male educated youth Ding Hao who is a bit interesting, I don't consider anyone else. Why don't you go and ask them?"
Li Meng thought about it and said, she had met Ding Hao several times in the village. He was neither humble nor arrogant, and was down-to-earth and hardworking, but he looked a little cold.
If Zhou Hui didn't have an important task, she would also like to let Zhou Hui learn to drive. The Song brothers are not suitable either. The eldest brother Song is not physically fit for learning to drive, and the youngest brother Song is a good accountant and bookkeeper, so the business in the warehouse cannot do without him, so these three are not suitable.
"Okay! Then I will go and ask for you later. As for the remaining two people, don't tell anyone else. I know what's going on. Let's go and take a look first!" After Captain Huang finished speaking, he went to the field to look for people. The new educated youth were digging in the field!
As the sowing season was approaching, all the villagers went to the fields to dig the soil.
Li Meng also went to Ma Da's house, and the two of them acted separately.
When Captain Huang arrived at the edge of the field, he saw Ding Hao waving a hoe and turning the soil diligently. He nodded, thinking that this educated youth was a good person and would not be dishonest.
"Ding Hao, come here!" Captain Huang shouted loudly, and waved his hand for fear that Ding Hao couldn't see him.
Ding Hao put down his hoe, straightened his clothes and walked over. The other people saw that it was the team leader calling him, and they were very curious about what was going on. They all stretched their necks to look over here.
"Captain, what do you want to talk to me about?" Ding Hao asked calmly, with no expression on his face. He was also very surprised why the captain came to him for something.
"I'm looking for you because it's a good thing. Let's go to the village committee and talk. This is not the place to talk." The team leader shouted to the educated youths who were craning their necks to look at him, "What are you looking at? You all just know how to be lazy. These work points are given to you for free. Hurry up and work!"
After yelling, he took Ding Hao away.
"Why did the captain call Ding Hao? He's so mysterious!" Zhang Qiang, a veteran, said to Zhao Wei who was working next to him.
"How would I know what it is? You ask me, and I want to ask you the same thing?" Zhao Wei said unhappily.
"Tsk, there's no need for me to talk to you. It's better for me to ask myself than to tell you! Humph!" Zhang Qiang snorted coldly and walked away with his hoe.
He trotted behind the team leader and Ding Hao, sneaking all the way to the door of the village committee. After seeing the two of them go in, he carefully squatted by the window and eavesdropped!
