The days of being a buyer in Siheyuan

Time flies. At the end of November, the first snow in the city has arrived. When I opened the door today, what caught my eye was a vast expanse of white.

There was a light snow last night, not heavy, just enough to cover the ground.

Today, Liu Minghui went to work without riding a bicycle. Instead, he walked with He Yuzhu and Xu Damao.

"Brother Minghui, do you still have that thing?"

On the way, Xu Damao came up to Liu Minghui and asked in a very low voice, as if he was afraid of being heard.

Xu Damao gave people the impression of being full of energy at this moment, and he did not look weak at all like he did a few months ago.

Liu Minghui looked her up and down, then nodded and said, "Yes, but the last time I gave you enough for three months, how come it's gone so quickly?"

Xu Damao felt a little embarrassed about Liu Minghui's doubt, because he wanted to use it as a gift. All the money at home was kept by Lou Xiao'e, so he couldn't get it even if he wanted to. But he couldn't say anything. Xu Damao thought about it and made up a lie.

"This isn't medicine, so I just took a little more."

As he spoke, he jumped twice to signal.

"Look, I think I'm much better now than before."

After looking at Xu Damao, Liu Minghui also felt that this made sense, but he still didn't believe Xu Damao because he knew that Xu Damao would not be that simple.

"Da Mao, luckily this is a tonic, otherwise I would have to be buried with you."

Yes, Liu Minghui was very unhappy with Xu Damao's recklessness. What if Xu Damao disobeyed and took medicine blindly? What if something happened? Wouldn't he have to blame him?

"Impossible, brother, don't you understand? I, Xu Damao, am not that kind of person."

Xu Damao quickly defended himself, saying that it was not his fault if something went wrong.

But Liu Minghui didn't believe it at all. Xu Damao was loyal? Even a sow could climb a tree.

"No, let's talk about it in two months."

But despite what he said, Liu Minghui still refused to provide it to Xu Damao, no matter how nicely he said.

Xu Damao was very depressed after hearing this. He knew Liu Minghui's character, and he was a man of his word. Even if he wanted it, Liu Minghui would not give it to him.

"Hey, hey, hey, what are you talking about? I don't understand."

He Yuzhu was totally confused and could only ask.

Xu Damao was originally very depressed, but when he heard He Yuzhu say this, he just answered casually.

"Nothing, just medicine to make you more powerful."

As he said this, he gave He Yuzhu a smile that every man knows.

He Yuzhu was a little confused at first, but after thinking about it carefully, he understood what it was and hurriedly asked Liu Minghui.

"Minghui, look, my wife is your cousin, so... "

He didn't finish his words, but Liu Minghui understood. He just wanted to buy medicine.

"Do you have money?"

"What?"

He Yuzhu looked at Xu Damao blankly, wondering why he suddenly asked him if he had money.

"Yes, this medicine is very expensive, you probably can't afford it."

Xu Damao said to He Yuzhu very seriously.

"impossible."

He Yuzhu, who was very proud, became unhappy after hearing this, and quickly said that he only earned 40 yuan a month and how could he not afford it.

However, after he finished speaking and saw the expressions of the two people, He Yuzhu knew that he had miscalculated, because the two of them still nodded very seriously, and they almost said the words "you are a poor guy".

"Okay, I'll give you one this afternoon. It's a free gift for you."

Seeing He Yuzhu like this, Liu Minghui said with disgust.

At this time, the three of them had already arrived at the steel rolling mill. After saying this, Liu Minghui separated from them.

Xu Damao wanted to follow and say a few more words, but was stopped by He Yuzhu, who wanted to consult Xu Damao.

In the end, Xu Damao had no choice but to explain to He Yuzhu.

"Chief, Deputy Director Li wants to see you."

When they arrived at the purchasing department, Li Yue came over and talked to him.

Li Huaide came to him, and although Liu Minghui was confused, he still nodded to indicate that he understood.

"Minghui, you're here. I asked you to come here so early in the morning. Is that okay?"

When I arrived at Li Huaide's office, Li Huaide said with a smile as soon as I entered the door.

"It's okay. Corey doesn't have much work to do every day now, and there's also Wang Wen."

Liu Minghui walked over and sat down opposite Li Huaide.

At this time, Li Huaide was looking at a document. He took out a cup, poured a cup of hot water for Liu Minghui, and then began to explain.

"I asked you to come because it's almost the end of the year. How should we arrange the New Year's goods this year? Do you have any ideas?"

Li Huaide asked him to come over mainly because of the matter of distributing supplies to the workers at the end of the year. Last year, due to some reasons, Li Huaide spent a lot of money and used many connections. This year, he planned to let Liu Minghui handle this matter.

"Ah, I don't have any idea about this matter. The main thing is that it is really difficult to get materials now. The workers are not satisfied no matter what. It's difficult."

Liu Minghui sighed and explained the main reason for the matter. It was not that he was reluctant to do so, but that the shortage of supplies was almost the most serious at this time. How could he get supplies for seven or eight thousand people? This was the big problem.

After hearing this, Li Huaide nodded in agreement.

"Yes, this is also a problem that has always bothered me, but the workers are looking forward to it. If the gap is too big in the end, I am afraid it will not end well."

After Li Huaide finished speaking, he kept sighing, looking very helpless.

However, Liu Minghui knew that Li Huaide did not call him here to complain, and Li Huaide must have a solution.

As for supplies, Liu Minghui could get them, but he didn't dare to take them. If it were Li Huaide, he could use his connections. For example, there was a cattle and sheep breeding base in the north. If Li Huaide had connections, it would be very easy for him to go there and purchase some.

"Uncle Li, if you have any ideas, please tell me. I want to hear them too."

Li Huaide talked for a long time but didn't get to the point, so Liu Minghui had no choice but to ask.

"You kid, you just can't keep your cool. Okay, I'll tell you."

Li Huaide laughed and cursed, then told him his solution, which was to go north to purchase.

"Well, this idea is good, but the journey is a bit far, I don't know if there are any specific plans."

Liu Minghui nodded, agreeing to the proposal, but the details still needed to be discussed. After all, he was unfamiliar with the place and was afraid of trouble.

After hearing this, Li Huaide smiled with relief, as if he was very satisfied with Liu Minghui's words.

"Yes, this matter needs to be discussed with Director Yang. The details will be discussed in a meeting later. You can come along as well, because you will be leading the team this time."

Li Huaide directly appointed Liu Minghui as the general. After all, as the head of the purchasing department, he must take the lead.

"I."

Liu Minghui pointed at himself in confusion, but then he thought again and felt that he was indeed a good candidate. There was nothing he could do about it. He was known for being a slacker, and everyone in the steel mill knew that. This time, Li Huaide probably wanted to push him forward, but he really had no merit, so he let him lead the team over.
