Bound to the involution system, I built a factory in the era of Gaga

Chapter 53: Going to the Countryside to Acquire

"Village head, why did the supply and marketing cooperative go to Xiushan Village to purchase?"

"Why? If Xiushan Village can do it, then our Lijia Village can do it too!"

"Captain, did they give gifts to the supply and marketing cooperative? Let's give some too!"

No matter how chaotic other villages were, the villagers of Xiushan Village were extremely happy.

I didn’t hear it clearly the first time, I couldn’t believe it the second time, and I started asking each other about it the third time.

"Are there people from the supply and marketing cooperative coming to the village tomorrow?"

"Buy food? My family doesn't even have enough food to eat, but we can sell some of the eggs and dried vegetables we have saved..."

"That's great. My son is getting married this year and I'm worried about how to save up the money for the betrothal gift..."

There might not be a socialist fair once a month, so when there was an emergency, one had to go to the supply and marketing cooperative in the county to exchange money. However, eggs were fragile and could easily be damaged on the way. After collecting a dozen or twenty eggs with great difficulty, and walking for several hours to the supply and marketing cooperative, one would find that a few of them were rotten. Who could accept this?

Therefore, it would be great if a supply and marketing cooperative came to collect the goods.

Therefore, every household prepared eggs, as well as some extra dried vegetables and fruits. As for grain, not many people prepared it. In the days of hunger, eggs were saved and not eaten, just to exchange for more coarse grains to fill their stomachs.

The villagers of Xiushan Village were eagerly waiting, but the atmosphere in the supply and marketing cooperative was unprecedentedly depressing.

"Director Du, it's not that I don't want to go, I just have something urgent to do tomorrow! You know, I have old people and young children to take care of. The old one is making trouble at home, and the young one is making trouble for my wife. Just now, someone came to my house and said that my mother is sick, so I have to go back to the village!"

"Director, even though I shouldn't have asked for leave since Purchaser Li asked for it, it just so happens that I have a blind date tomorrow... The Director knows my situation. I'm not young anymore. If I don't get married, my mother will probably cry, make a scene, or even hang herself..."

Director Du just laughed at the words of the two buyers.

What were they planning? How could he not know? Before he got to this position, he had dealt with many people. He knew all the twists and turns.

It's nothing more than going to the countryside to purchase goods but it's hard work and there's no profit to be made. However, he can't say it openly. Although he is a small leader of neither importance, he actually has to consider the faces of his subordinates occasionally.

This is an era of food and clothing shortage, and even more so an era of talent shortage.

It takes time to train a good subordinate. He would turn a blind eye to minor mistakes. He also couldn't push people too hard. The more just a leader is, the better. He had to be more slick.

Both of them refused to go to the countryside, so there were three buyers, only the last one left.

Director Du looked at the young man, and Wang Hongxing quickly stood up: "Director, I'll go then!"

He was young, only in his early twenties, and had come here because of his family connections, so he was excluded by the other two buyers. However, although his family had connections, he himself was also very outstanding.

Just give him a chance and he will prove it to the director!

No, the opportunity has come.

Although going to the countryside is hard and tiring, if it were not so, how could it be his turn?

Director Du nodded with satisfaction: "Okay, okay, then, Purchaser Wang, I'll leave this matter to you, do a good job!" After encouraging Wang Hongxing for a while, Director Du dismissed the three people.

The three of them walked out one after another. Purchaser Li couldn't help but say sarcastically: "Oh, you really thought it was a good job!"

Purchaser Zhang turned around and looked to comfort him: "Haha, Purchaser Wang, Purchaser Li was just joking. This job is very good. If I hadn't been busy, I would definitely go. It's a very good way to train people! The great man said that we should not be afraid of hardship or fatigue!"

Wang Hongxing smiled innocently: "I know, if you guys weren't busy, this good job would definitely not be my turn. Haha, I'm going to be busy now, see you another day!"

"You!" Purchaser Li pointed at Wang Hongxing and cursed, "Look at this brat. He just got a crappy job. Do you think you are so great? I want to see if he can make a successful purchase tomorrow!"

Purchaser Zhang said cheerfully: "Oh, he's young and energetic, so he can do whatever he wants. Okay, let's go have a drink with Lao Zhao?"

"Why are you looking for him? He's just a lousy driver..." Li Mang said disdainfully.

Zhang He rolled his eyes in his heart, thinking that this man was really stupid, and leaned close to his ear and said, "You definitely can't walk to the countryside to buy things, and you must make sure Lao Zhao goes with you tomorrow..."

"You mean?" Li Mang's eyes widened.

Zhang He nodded with a smile: "Well, young people always have to go through some setbacks. His family loves him, so we should be good people and educate him!"

"Brother Zhang, I never realized you are this kind of person!" Li Mang gave Zhang He a thumbs up, but secretly cursed him in his heart, "You old bitch."

You can never fall out with this old bitch in the future, otherwise you won’t even know how you died!

The next morning, Wang Hongxing happily followed Lao Zhao to the countryside and ran to the village.

The cars nowadays have no shock-absorbing function, and the roads in the countryside are bumpy and uneven, so the riding experience is not good.

Wang Hongxing shook his head secretly: "This won't work. If I buy eggs, I'm afraid most of them will be lost..."

Old Zhao drove with one hand and smoked with the other, puffing out smoke rings and saying, "It's not that good. Whoever can't figure it out comes to the village to buy it!" Don't damage his precious car.

Although it was not his personal property, being a driver was a very popular and sought-after profession in this era. A typical iron rice bowl.

Anyway, there are only a handful of technicians who can drive in the county.

The supply and marketing cooperative's car was his to drive and manage. So it was his after rounding it off.

Of course, you can only think about this in your heart. If you really say it out loud, it would be undermining socialism and you will be punished!

Boom, drip.

The inherent sound of cars is particularly prominent in the countryside, and villagers can hear it from far away.

The children were like strings, gathering in a long line, scrambling to run to the village to report the news, just to see if they could get a piece of candy to sweeten their mouths.

"Someone's coming from the county!"

"A big car has arrived in our village!"

"The car is coming, the buyers are coming!"

"Eat candy, eat candy!"

Because some people would promise their children that if they sold grain or something, they would buy candy for their children. Therefore, in addition to the villagers looking forward to the purchasers coming to the countryside, the children looked forward to it even more.

Adults can restrain their excitement, but children’s joy cannot be hidden.

Hearing the sound, every household brought the prepared things to the doorstep, looking forward to it.

So when Wang Hongxing arrived at Xiushan Village and got off the car, he saw this funny yet scary scene.

The funny thing is that every household can't wait to sell things. The scary thing is that they all stand there motionless, smiling and looking at him, which makes people feel creepy.
