Chapter 222 Ticket Exchange
"Brother, since you don't want food coupons and meat slices,
then I'll leave the sugar coupons, non-staple food coupons, industrial coupons, and cloth coupons to you.
Take a look at these coupons of mine and pick out any that you have that are useful."
Wang Yuanchao looked at the various tickets with a smile, then gathered the selected tickets together, folded them up, handed them to Section Chief Li, and said:
"Brother, that's all. To be honest, I can't really go to the provincial capital empty-handed when taking my wife and mother-in-law to play, right? I won't say much about gratitude. Anyway, brother, you helped me a lot this time. All this is in my heart. Just wait and see how I perform in the future.
Brother, please calculate how much money is appropriate for me to give you."
Section Chief Li of the car factory pretended to be angry and said:
"Hey, brother, you look down on your brother, don't you? These are the hospitality tickets I specially applied for you from the factory. Why give them money? If you give them money, aren't you slapping your brother in the face? What's more, your brother has taken advantage of your good fortune and got so many food coupons and meat money.
If you talk about money with me again, be careful or I might get angry with you."
Wang Yuanchao waved his hands repeatedly and put away the ticket, saying: "Hey, brother, don't be angry, you have helped me a lot, I can't let you suffer any loss, right?
Alas, it is my fault. I shouldn't have done that. I am right to teach you a lesson."
"Haha, that's right. As long as you pay more attention to our unit's shipments, you'll be helping me a lot. These tickets are just small matters.
If you need anything in the future, just tell me. Don’t worry, I will get it for you without hesitation.”
"Hey, my brother, your convoy has arrived here, isn't it just like going home?
Brother, don't worry, no matter what the situation is, as long as your fleet arrives, we will definitely deliver the goods to you as soon as possible and ensure that they are delivered to you on time and in the right quantity."
"Haha, good brother, that's very nice of you. When you get to the provincial capital, remember to look for me. Then we can find a restaurant and have a good drink together."
Wang Yuanchao smiled bitterly and said:
"Brother, this time it's not possible, this time it's not possible, this time I'm talking to my wife and children,
How about we meet again next time?"
Section Chief Li patted Wang Yuanchao's shoulder vigorously and said with a smile:
"Okay, brother, just remember it, and we'll make an appointment next time."
"Okay, brother, I will, I will."
After watching Section Chief Li from the car factory leave, Wang Yuanchao looked at the ticket in his pocket and couldn't help but smile bitterly: "It's true that you are too humble to take things from others, and you are too humble to speak after taking things from others. Sigh."
Then Wang Yuanchao took out the ticket rolls and counted them. There were ten non-staple food tickets, twenty sugar tickets at one catty each, and ten cloth tickets at five inches each.
Twenty industrial tickets.
Wang Yuanchao put the ticket into the space and sighed:
"It's a pity that there are no TV tickets, otherwise I would have bought a TV during this period when the team distributes money and everyone has money to spend the winter."
The Red Flag Brigade did not hide the huge dividends this year.
This news was like a meteorite suddenly falling on a calm lake, causing huge waves in the surrounding villages and communes.
At one time, numerous people came to the Red Flag Brigade to inquire about the news.
After confirming the authenticity of the news, matchmakers from several surrounding communes and the surrounding villages, who had something to do, brought their high-quality girls and boys to the Hongqi Brigade to introduce the boys and girls to each other. For a time, the villagers of the entire Hongqi Brigade became the hot commodity among the surrounding people, and every girl and boy was in great demand.
The matchmakers' move just happened to cater to the wishes of most villagers in the Hongqi Brigade. For two consecutive years, as long as there were more people in the family, they could get more money, and it was getting more every year.
The common people are not stupid. Young people who have reached marriageable age have all been arranged to go on blind dates by their elders and parents. However, the villagers of the girls' families in Hongqi Brigade, like other people in the surrounding areas, all believe that the man who falls in love with a village girl should marry into the girl's family, settle down in Hongqi Brigade, and share the benefits of its development.
For a while, the Red Flag Brigade was busy with blind dates, weddings, banquets, and house building before hibernation.
In the Youth League compound, Cheng Xi sat on the steps of the yard, pouting and looking frustrated as she said to Lin Yibao:
"Baby, Hu Zhengwu really said he's too busy. Can't we build our house before the New Year?"
"Yes, alas, it's our bad luck that every household in the brigade has received so much money.
Many villagers have gone to the brigade to get approval for homesteads to build new houses.
They are all from the same village, so naturally, our house construction will have to be put on the back burner.”
Cheng Xi pounded his hands on the ground in anger and said angrily:
"Huh, isn't it first come first served?
We had agreed with him before the autumn harvest, but he made us wait in the back. I was so pissed off.
I'm going to go back and complain to my dad, to sue them."
"Haha, forget it, Xiaoxi, it's just a small matter, and you're still complaining to Uncle Cheng.
Uncle Cheng is so busy every day, aren't you making things difficult for him?"
Cheng Xi hung his head helplessly, sighed and said, "Ah, baby, are we going to have to spend the entire winter at the Youth League Center, huddled together with everyone else?"
"I don't know either. How about we go back home and ask our family for their opinions?"
"Well, now we use tractors to plow the land, so we educated youth have nothing to do.
Let's go find the captain and ask him to give us a letter of introduction so we can go back, shall we?"
"Okay, let's pack up and go."
"Okay, why don't you call Chen Xingyu and the others?"
When Cheng Xi heard the name, she looked unhappy and said awkwardly: "This kind of person runs away quickly when there is something going on, and comes close when there is nothing going on. I don't like them.
Baby, let's go back by ourselves, shall we?"
Lin Yibao naturally knew what Cheng Xi was talking about, and she also felt that these boys who grew up together were really not like real men.
Since Xiao Chengxi didn't want to go back with them, forget it, so he said, "Okay, Xiaoxi, it's just the two of us, let's pack up and go."
"Well, okay, should we talk to the captain?"
"Well, I think we can tell him, so that everyone won't think we are missing."
"Okay, let's go now."
Wang Yuanchao looked at the two local tiger girls who told him they wanted to go home, so he naturally wouldn't stop them.
"Okay, Cheng Zhiqing, Lin Zhiqing, since your family is in the provincial capital, please be careful on the way back. You'd better go and see the brigade's tractors first to see if you are going to the provincial capital today. If you do, it would be best if you could take a ride."
"Okay, thank you, Captain. We will be careful about safety."
"Okay, have a nice trip."
