Siheyuan: How many worlds does the system integrate?

Chapter 39: Taking Xu Damao to Purchase

After entering the factory, I heard that the newly built workshop at the back of the factory had been closed.

There were some unfamiliar people guarding outside, and no one was allowed to get close. Li Xuewu went there and found that it was really the case.

I originally wanted to meet the master, but was rejected by the guards. I could only hand over my spare clothes to the guards and ask them to help carry them in. When I returned to the workshop, people were still discussing what kind of mission it was that required such a large number of people.

At noon, when I was walking to the cafeteria with my lunch box, I saw the factory gate opened. Several large trucks drove in and stopped in front of the office building. Many workers got off the trucks. They were wearing all kinds of work clothes and it was obvious that they were from different factories.

I saw Director Yang shaking hands with several team leaders, saying a few simple words to the group of people, and then they all went to the new factory building at the back.

When he arrived at the cafeteria, he found the window where He Yuzhu was getting food. When it was his turn, he said, "Brother Zhu, one dish and two steamed buns. Do you have to work overtime these few days?"

"Of course! After finishing the work at noon, I have to prepare an overtime meal in the evening. It will be eight or nine o'clock every day!" He Yuzhu said while serving the dishes.

"I saw two more truckloads of people coming in just now. This is quite a big force!"

He Yuzhu lowered his voice and said, "When I went to deliver the food, I saw an old man and his friends holding a book and studying it. I guess it was some new technology!"

"Oh, they have learned some of that!" Now Li Xuewu understood.

I didn't expect that the set of books I threw in would cause such a big wave, but it's normal when you think about it. Now we are in short supply of everything, especially technology. Many technologies are old technologies that the Russians and Chinese used to use dozens of years ago. Now that we have a set of technical books at the world's advanced level, how can it not attract attention?

"I hope the audience will give me more technical books as rewards in the future! Then I can take off right away!" Li Xuewu thought to himself.

This kind of technical research is not something a newbie like Li Xuewu can participate in. Although the master and other senior workers like the uncle are working day and night, Li Xuewu and his colleagues are living the same life. The only difference is that there are a few more unfriendly glances when they go to and from get off work every day, staring at the people coming in and out, looking at each person as if they were a spy.

Xu Damao is getting married this weekend, so Li Xuewu asked for leave from the workshop director since Friday. As an apprentice, he didn't have much work to do, and the workshop director was familiar with him. After asking for the reason, he said directly: "What's the point of asking for leave? Your master is too busy to teach you, and there is no work for you. You should go and do your own thing!"

It's really easy to be an official if you have connections in the government. You don't have to deduct your salary if you take leave and don't go to work. The attendance is all in the hands of the workshop director. Li Xuewu smiled and stuffed a box of Daqianmen into the director's pocket: "Thank you, Uncle Zhang, I'm leaving now!"

"Get out of here!" Director Zhang smiled and drove Li Xuewu away. He took out a cigarette from his pocket, opened it, lit it, and smoked it happily.

Early on Friday morning, Xu Damao knocked on Li Xuewu's door and asked, "Have you woken up yet? Why do you have to leave?"

Li Xuewu came out, ruffling his messy hair: "Brother Mao, what time is it? Why are you leaving so early?"

"It's getting late. Go earlier and come back earlier. There are still a lot of things to do here."

"Okay, wait for me to wash my face." He walked to the sink in a daze and washed his face. He woke up instantly, wet his hair and fixed his hairstyle, went back to put on his coat, pushed the bicycle and walked out with Xu Damao.

This man was already extremely anxious and was riding very fast on the road. One must say that Xu Damao was indeed a man who often dragged equipment weighing hundreds of kilograms to the countryside to show movies, so his physical strength was really good.

The journey would have taken two hours, but the two of them pedaled very fast and arrived in an hour and a half.

Li Xuewu now walked into Qin Dazhuang's house as if he were walking into his own home. When he reached the door, he pushed it open and walked in: "Uncle, aunt, I'm here!"

Qin Jingru inside shouted with joy and ran out, "Brother Xuewu" and threw herself directly into Li Xuewu's arms.

He held her and spun her around twice before putting her down: "Alright, alright, come down quickly, I'll introduce you to a friend, this is Xu Damao, you can just call him Brother Damao!"

"Brother Damao!" Qin Jingru hugged Li Xuewu's arm and called out coquettishly.

"Hello!" Xu Damao replied politely.

"Are you and your dad the only ones at home?" Li Xuewu asked when no one else came out.

"Well, there are still a few things you asked me to buy that haven't been delivered yet. My mom and brother went to get them. They should be back soon. Brother Xuewu, let's go inside!" Qin Jingru's eyes were completely on Li Xuewu, and she didn't pay any attention to Xu Damao at all.

"Brother Mao, please sit in the house for a while. When Da Zhuang comes back, we will pack up and head back quickly!"

Father Qin came out from the inner room, holding his chest and walking out slowly: "Here comes the martial arts teacher!"

"Uncle, please don't come out! Take a rest. This is not the first or second time I've come here!" Li Xuewu hurried forward to support him.

"It's okay. You need to exercise properly. Dazhuang and the others are out. Jingru is the only little girl at home. Come on, sit down. Jingru, go boil some water!"

"Uncle, this is Xu Damao. He is getting married in the next two days, and most of the things are bought for him!" Li Xuewu pointed at Xu Damao and introduced him.

Father Qin glanced at Xu Damao and said, "Well, you are a spirited young man. Congratulations!"

"Thank you. My wedding has caused trouble to your family. You even have to help me buy things!" Xu Damao is quite good at saying polite words.

"Don't be so formal. You are my martial arts brother, so I will definitely help you if I can!"

The three of them sat and chatted for a while, and after about an hour, Qin Dazhuang came back.

When he saw the bicycle parked in the yard, he knew it was Li Xuewu. He spoke before he even entered the door: "Xuewu, everything is almost ready, come and take a look!"

"Hey, you're back. Let's go check it out, Brother Mao!"

The two men stood up and walked out. They saw a shoulder pole next to Qin Dazhuang in the yard, with vegetables in baskets on both sides. "We thought the vegetables from the village yesterday were not fresh, so we picked them this morning. You picked them just in time. In a few days, there won't be many fresh vegetables left!"

"Of course, I chose this time to get married so that things are easier to buy. If we wait until winter, all we will have are radishes, potatoes and cabbages!" Xu Damao was very satisfied looking at the vegetables in the basket.

Li Xuewu asked again: "How much meat and eggs did you get?"

Qin Dazhuang laughed: "This brother picked a good wedding date. You gave me instructions on Sunday, and I went into the mountains again on Wednesday. Guess what happened?"

"What's the matter?" Both of them stared at Qin Dazhuang with hope.

"Hehehe, I encountered a wild boar and a roe deer, and I brought them back!"

Xu Damao was delighted: "That's great! I was worried that there wouldn't be enough meat before, but now it's solved. Let's take a look at it!"

"It's too hot outside, so I put it in the cellar. Let's go down and take a look!"

The three of them went into the cellar and saw the wild boar and roe deer that had been packed up. "How many pounds does Da Zhuang weigh in total?"

"The wild boar produced 70 kilograms of meat, and the roe deer produced less than 40 kilograms! You can decide how much you two can take, and I'll take care of the rest!"

Seeing Xu Damao hesitate to speak, Li Xuewu spoke directly: "Brother Mao, you decide how much you want. Don't consider Dazhuang. He is guarding the mountain. If you want to eat meat, you can always get some meat in the mountain for two or three days!"
