Except for Gu Jiangming, everyone else was confused as to what kind of medicine Li Qiuyuan was selling in this mysterious gourd.

After giving up, Li Qiuyuan asked: "Captain, how are the two bamboo baskets I asked you to weave!".

The news has not yet been confirmed, so it is not appropriate to let too many people know. The captain here has the best craftsmanship, so Li Qiuyuan asked the captain to help us weave two small bamboo baskets.

"Oh! Of those two baskets, I just need to finish the last one. It will be done soon and I will send it to you."

"Okay! Then tomorrow, captain, you go with me and Gu Jiangming." As the leader of the first team, you must go.

"Sure, no problem." Gu Jianguo didn't expect that Li Zhiqing would let him follow.

Gu Xu looked at the mooncakes on the tray and said, "Li Zhiqing, all the materials used to make mooncakes this time have been reported to me, and the team will be out at that time."

The three old guys discussed it. Li Zhiqing was looking for a way out for the brigade, which cost food and people. Therefore, if the brigade provided the materials here, if it couldn't work, the three of them would have to share it equally.

"Okay, I'll tell Uncle Xu when I get back from the commune tomorrow." Li Qiuyuan was not polite.

…………

Early in the morning of the second day, the three of them went to the commune on bicycles, carrying sweet potato vermicelli and two baskets of mooncakes.

It was still early when we arrived at the commune, just before 9 o'clock. Gu Jianguo had been here many times and was familiar with the gatekeeper, so he led the way.

After entering the yard, he pushed the car under the tree: "Let's put the bicycle here." This car does not need to be exposed to the sun.

As soon as the three of them put the car away, the clerk who went to the countryside with Secretary Lu last time came out to greet them: "Captain Gu, you have finally arrived. I thought I had to wait for a while." In fact, he was already impatient.

Gu Jianguo was also very good at reading faces and said very apologetically: "I'm sorry, Director Liu kept you waiting for so long."

"It's okay, it's okay. Secretary Lu and the others are in a meeting. They said that for lunch today, they will have the hot and sour noodles. The meal will be served on time at 12 o'clock."

He looked around and whispered: "The people coming to the meeting today are all leaders, so take advantage of the opportunity."

Such as the director of the steel factory, the director of the agricultural and sideline food factory, and the people at the grain station...

"Director Liu, thank you for not being like us." Gu Jianguo took out an unopened pack of cigarettes from his pocket and handed it over while avoiding others.

Liu Wen glanced at it and pushed it back: "There's no need for this, Captain Gu." Deputy Director Cao had reminded him, saying that Secretary Lu attached great importance to this matter today and asked him to keep an eye on it.

"In this case, I will take you to the kitchen to have a look first. If there are any defects, you can rush to buy it."

While the two were chatting, the commune that Li Qiuyuan had been looking at could be said to be one of the few two-story bungalows in the commune. The walls were all covered with representative slogans of this era.

Glancing at the small kitchen, Liu Wen asked, "Li Zhiqing, look at what's missing, so I can prepare it." He had prepared everything in the hot and sour noodles last time.

Li Qiuyuan looked over one by one, including mature vinegar, chili pepper, peppercorns, soy sauce, peanut oil, onions, ginger, garlic, and some side dishes.

Feeling that there was nothing missing, he nodded: "No, that's almost it. I just want to ask if any of the people who eat hot and sour noodles today can't eat spicy food or have any taboos."

Because she mentioned casually last time that the soup base would be more delicious if it were made with bones, so bones were prepared in the small kitchen this time.

You have to ask this clearly, otherwise it will be embarrassing if people can't eat it after a while.

Liu Wen slapped his head: "Oh, look at my brain, I almost forgot to mention that there is one person here who can't eat spicy food. When the time comes, his portion will not be spicy, and everyone else can eat spicy food." .

"Okay, I see."

Today she knew it, and she definitely wanted to show it off, so she brought a lot of things with her.

She started without saying much. Because she was in a hurry last time, she didn't bother with the soup base. This time, she had enough time. She planned to simmer the hot and sour rice noodle soup base slowly.

Seeing this posture, Liu Wen was about to start: "Then you guys are busy first, I will go out to work first, if you need anything, just come to me."

"Okay, sorry to trouble you, Director Liu."

In the commune office, Lu Tenggu was holding meetings with each factory and the responsible personnel.

"In a few days at Sun Commune, five tractors will be allocated from above. Three will be assigned to the brigade below, and the other two will be assigned to the factory. Everyone will discuss which factory these two tractors should be assigned to."

Originally there was no such content in today's meeting, but the tractor that the chief promised finally came down yesterday, so we didn't make any arrangements while everyone was here.

The person at the grain station expressed his opinion eagerly: "This must be given to our grain station! The previous tractor has long been out of use."

Others were not happy: "You all have one at the food station, no matter what happens this time it will be our agricultural and sideline food station's turn."

"That won't work... Let me tell you..." Then several people started fighting fiercely for the two tractors.

Because their commune’s targets were not as good as those of other communes, they did not get a share of the tractors allocated last time.

This time it was finally their commune's turn, and they had to fight for this tractor.

In the end, after a fierce tug-of-war, the grain station and the steel plant came out on top. However, the old tractor at the grain station had to be used by the non-staple food station, and if it was needed urgently, it could be borrowed if it was allocated.

Although the others were not assigned, he looked dissatisfied, but there was nothing he could do, Secretary Lu was right.

"All the public rations have been handed over to the grain station. In a few days, the people above will arrange for people to come down and take them away..."

The meeting here is in full swing, and the kitchen is not to be outdone. Li Qiuyuan is practicing spicy food at the moment. The smell is very choking, like smoked rats.

The chef who had been cooking at the other end of the kitchen was full of disdain: "I want to see what a country girl can do." His ancestors had imperial chefs, who can compare with his skills? ?

He usually came to meetings with these big leaders, and he was the one in charge of the cooking, but today he was notified at short notice that someone else was there, which made him very angry and scared.

He went to see it before coming, and it would be a joke to see what delicious food could be made from the few things prepared in the kitchen.

But the chef at this moment didn't know that it was him who was laughing.
