Siheyuan: debt repayment is a matter of course

"Four corn tortillas, one potato shreds."

"Have some sour cabbage."

……

Not only Shazhu is busy, but also his new apprentice Ma Hua, and Liu Lan who is in charge of washing vegetables.

There are tens of thousands of workers in the Red Star Rolling Mill, but it is not a canteen. Shazhu is the No. [-] canteen, and there are No. [-], No. [-] and No. [-] canteens.

Although it is not a cafeteria, Sha Zhu's cooking skills are the best.

Director Li in logistics likes to eat the dishes made by Shazhu.

Silly Zhu was still waiting for Lin Xiangdong to perform the trick, but he didn't see Lin Xiangdong, so he felt lonely.

"Strange, why didn't Lin Xiangdong come to the cafeteria? Could it be that he guessed that I was going to give him a spoon?" Silly Zhu frowned, thinking in his heart.

Lin Xiangdong didn't come to the cafeteria for a long time, so he must have asked someone to help him cook.

"Don't come to the cafeteria every day if you have the ability." Silly Zhu thought to himself.

As long as Lin Xiangdong comes to the cafeteria, Sha Zhu must give him a spoon.

Some depressed silly Zhu also started to eat lunch. His lunch meal is two Erhe noodles steamed buns, plus a stewed pork vermicelli, which has two slices of meat, plus a portion of shredded potatoes and stewed in oil. Eggplant, plus a bowl of egg cauliflower soup.

When cooking, Sha Zhu would also take two bites, saying it was for a taste.

When the leader of the factory wants to start a small stove, Shazhu is also a bit lucky.

It can be said that apart from the leaders in the factory, Shazhu's food is the best.

In the words of Shazhu, the leader drinks the blood of the workers, so he can't take advantage of it?

When Xu Damao went to the countryside to show a movie, he still asked for a card, but no one said that the silly Zhu took advantage of it.

Many people in the factory knew about what Sha Zhu had done, and no one reported him.

You know, silly Zhu didn't take advantage of him for a day or two, and he didn't sneak around, like Liu Lan was dissatisfied with him.

Even if you report Shazhu, at most you will let him go to the workshop for a few days, and you will still go back to the cafeteria.

These days, it is more difficult to stay out of the matter even if you report anonymously.

Therefore, it is thankless to report the silly column.

If he could report it, Xu Damao would have reported it long ago.

……

The factory area is very large, and the third workshop is far away from the publicity department.

When he came to the publicity department, Lin Xiangdong saw that most of the people in the publicity department were away and went to the cafeteria to get dinner.

Xu Damao, who is a projectionist, is still in the propaganda department.

Xu Damao and Shazhu are rivals, and Shazhu likes to give Xu Damao a kick.

And Xu Damao often asks people to cook for him.

When Lin Xiangdong came to the Propaganda Section, Xu Damao was fiddling with the projection equipment.

The combination of the gear and wooden gear of the projector generator, the small lens, the prototype of the shelf and the rocker of the handle are used to assemble the rocker.

In the original world, Lin Xiangdong had seen pictures of this type of projector, but this was the first time he had seen the real thing, and it was a bit novel.

Projectionists are respectable in this era, and they are one of the eight members of grassroots culture popularization.

Eight major members: counselor, newspaper reader, creator, librarian, projectionist, performer, blackboard newspaperman and storyteller.

Chapter 5 Xu Damao: I will pay you back after the salary is paid next month

"Brother Xu, you're busy!"

Lin Xiangdong smiled and walked to Xu Damao's side.

Looking at the projector, Lin Xiangdong reached out to touch it, but Xu Damao hurriedly stopped him.

"Look at it, don't touch it." Xu Damao said.

Although the projector belongs to the factory, Xu Damao, the projectionist, is responsible if it is damaged.

Every day when he comes to the factory, Xu Damao will carefully check the projector, and the movie film is free of problems.

"It's better to be a projectionist." Lin Xiangdong sighed.

Not to mention that apprentice fitters are inferior to projectionists, even first-level or second-level fitters are inferior.

It can be said that today's Xu Damao is comparable to a third-level fitter. This is not salary, but status.

As far as salary is concerned, Xu Damao is comparable to a second-level fitter, but his status is much higher than that of a second-level fitter.

In this day and age, the projector is a foreign gadget, and most people can't handle it.

"Nonsense, don't be envious, you are just playing with pliers. By the way, what are you doing in the propaganda department?" Xu Damao squinted at Lin Xiangdong while fiddling with the projector.

"Recently, my money is tight..."

Before Lin Xiangdong finished speaking, Xu Damao interrupted with his hand: "I have no money to lend you."

Although they live in a courtyard house, the relationship between Xu Damao and Lin Xiangdong is not very good.

And Xu Damao would not lend money casually.

"Brother Xu, you misunderstood. I am not asking you to borrow money, but I hope you will pay back the money." Lin Xiangdong took out the IOU.

"?" Xu Damao.

In black and white, Xu Damao owed Lin Xiangdong 20 yuan and meat tickets last year.

When he saw the IOU in Lin Xiangdong's hand, Xu Damao immediately remembered it.

"This..." Xu Damao was embarrassed.

20 yuan is not small money, Xu Damao does not have it.

Although he only has a few dollars, Xu Damao still has a lot of money in his family, not to mention 20 yuan, but 200 yuan, which Xu Damao can take out.

However, he was not happy to ask Xu Damao to give Lin Xiangdong 20 yuan.

In a blink of an eye, Xu Damao had a plan, one word - delay!

"Dongzi, brother Xu and I don't have much money anymore, so I will pay you back when the salary is paid next month." Xu Damao said with a smile.

"Wait until you get paid next month? Are you sure?" Lin Xiangdong looked at Xu Damao strangely.

From the moment Lin Xiangdong took out the IOU and asked Xu Damao to pay back the money, the system started counting.

If Xu Damao doesn't pay back the money in person within 24 hours, he will be at his own risk.

"Okay, I'll pay you back when I get paid next month." Xu Damao was a little impatient.

"Since you have to pay it back next month, then next month will be fine." Lin Xiangdong shrugged indifferently.

The opportunity was given to Xu Damao, but Xu Damao narrowed the road by himself, so Lin Xiangdong can't be blamed.

I'm too lazy to talk nonsense with Xu Damao, Lin Xiangdong hasn't had lunch yet.

Seeing Lin Xiangdong turn around and leave, Xu Damao curled his lips in disdain, pay back the money?does not exist.

Find an excuse after next month's salary.

"I'm also stupid, what kind of IOU is I borrowing money!" Xu Damao regretted.

Xu Damao also felt a little strange. Last year, he borrowed 20 yuan from Lin Xiangdong and wrote an IOU. Why did he forget it?

If Lin Xiangdong hadn't taken out the IOU, Xu Damao wouldn't have had the slightest impression.

But the moment he saw the IOU, Xu Damao remembered it all.

The 20 yuan was Xu Damao's half a month's salary, even if it was owed to others, Xu Damao didn't want to pay it back.

……

Walking out of the Propaganda Section, Lin Xiangdong was also thinking about it.

At noon tomorrow, the system will punish Xu Damao.

Xu Damao also has hand cramps?

Qin Huairu didn't pay back her debts, the system fined her five yuan, and Xu Damao was fined 50 yuan?

When Lin Xiangdong returned to the third workshop, worker Liu Jinjin was eating, and also ordered food for Lin Xiangdong.

Two Sanhe noodles steamed buns, a portion of shredded potatoes, and a portion of cabbage.

Taking a small stool and sitting down, Lin Xiangdong opened the lunch box and started eating.

After taking a bite of the three-in-one noodle steamed bun, I felt my throat hurt.

"This is too unpalatable." Lin Xiangdong muttered in his heart.

Before crossing over, Lin Xiangdong would never eat this steamed bun.

Although it feels unpalatable, it is important to fill your stomach.

After working all morning, Lin Xiangdong's physical exertion was not small.

Unable to swallow the steamed buns, Lin Xiangdong picked up the enamel jar and took a sip of the cold steamed buns, which made him feel better.

As for the potatoes and cabbage, there is no oily water, and the taste is not very good.

In fact, it's normal. Lin Xiangdong might not be used to eating delicacies from mountains and seas in this era.

How delicious can the big pot dishes in the factory be?

In this year of famine, hungry people abound, and there is little oil and water in the factory.

In order to fill his stomach, Lin Xiangdong bit the bullet and ate.

"Sanhe noodles steamed buns are so unpalatable, how unpalatable are coarse grain steamed buns?" Lin Xiangdong couldn't even think about it.

Although I know that these times are hard and I can’t get enough to eat, but experiencing it in person is different.

The workers in the capital are actually very healthy, while the rural people eat grass and bark hungry, and many people are hungry and their bodies are swollen.

Lin Xiangdong's great-grandfather had eaten grass when he was young, but he had only heard about it, never seen it, let alone experienced it.

Therefore, Qin Huairu in the original play is living better than most people in the countryside, but she is not satisfied.

I'm sorry to say that Qin Huairu is virtuous, but there are much more virtuous than him in this era.

Educating three children into white-eyed wolves is a mother's failure.

After eating two steamed buns, potatoes and cabbage, Lin Xiangdong was [-]% full.

Next, Lin Xiangdong washed the two lunch boxes first, and then asked a worker to exchange tickets.

Food stamps, fuel stamps, and meat stamps can be exchanged as soon as they are available.

There was only eight yuan in his pocket, so Lin Xiangdong exchanged five yuan for the ticket.

In the original play, the deaf old lady exchanged 62 catties of food stamps for 12 yuan and [-] cents, but now it is [-], and there is a famine, and food stamps are not cheap.

After chatting with a few workers, Lin Xiangdong got a clear understanding of the market.

Five yuan can be exchanged for eighteen catties of food stamps, and if you exchange for meat tickets, it will only be about five catties.

That's right, a catty of meat tickets can be exchanged for one yuan, and a catty of pork is only sixty-four cents.

In other words, if you don’t have a ticket, you need to buy a meat ticket with one dollar first, and then sixty-four cents, so that you can buy a catty of pork.

Due to the shortage of supplies, if you want to buy pork, you have to queue up early in the morning.

Every day, people go to line up before dawn.

Pigeon Market does have pork that doesn't require a meat ticket, but the price is not cheap.

With the system, Lin Xiangdong also has confidence.

First I exchanged some food stamps, then the factory meal stamps, and some oil stamps and meat stamps.

Worker Liu Jinjin helped with cooking, and Lin Xiangdong also paid back the fare.

Although the relationship is good, it is not easy for Liu Jinjin. The first-level fitter has to support his wife and children, and has an old mother. Lin Xiangdong does not take advantage of him.

After changing the tickets, Lin Xiangdong rested for a while, and then got ready for work.
