Xu Damao's Thirty-Six Stratagems in Siheyuan
Chapter 205 Once Owned
Shanhaiguan, Laolongtou, Beidaihe, although it was winter and very cold during the Spring Festival, the bus still took people to go around. It was precisely because of the winter that Beidaihe had the opportunity to host the Youth League Committee meeting of the Kyoto Metallurgical Department. If it came in the summer, there would be no guest rooms to arrange.
In fact, the two-day meeting was mainly to learn the latest spirit of the Central Committee and future prospects, and there was really no substantive content. On the afternoon of the fourth day, we drove nearly 500 kilometers from Beidaihe to the last stop of the visit and study. Xu Damao really didn't expect that this last stop would be Chengde Saihanba Forest Farm.
He remembered that Yan Jiekuang, the son of his third uncle, was in Saihanba.
After arriving, regardless of whether it was dark or not, he asked in the duty room about Yan Jiekuang's residence.
"Oh my god, Brother Damao, why are you here in the middle of the night?"
"Jie Kuang, this is a good place to find you. Our Youth League Committee of the steel rolling system came to visit and learn the spirit of Saihanba. I just settled down and asked around for you. Finally, I found you. How are you? Have you been doing well here these years? Did you take the college entrance examination last year?"
"I took the exam, but didn't pass. I plan to work harder this year."
"We're going back tomorrow. Do you have anything you want me to bring to your parents?"
"Brother Damao? Is it really convenient to bring? Then can I give it to you tomorrow morning?"
"Okay, we should have lunch at your farm and leave. I live in Room 106 of the Forest Farm Guesthouse. You can come find me around noon. If you have any good specialties, can you also buy me a hundred-dollar item? Okay?"
"Okay, no problem."
Xu Damao quickly took out a hundred yuan from his pocket and handed it to Yan Jiekuang, "Here's the money, buy whatever you want. Local specialties. If you don't have enough, ask me for more."
Wow, the next day Yan Jiekuang came over with a cart full of stuff.
"Brother Damao, these three small bags are for my parents, and I marked them. These ten bags are for you, with various mushrooms, beef jerky, cheese, almonds, and tea. I spent all the hundred dollars on you. This small bag is a personal gift from me to you. Thank you, Brother Damao, for coming thousands of miles to see me and bringing things to my parents. Tell them that I'm fine. Let them rest assured."
"Jie Kuang, you are good. You didn't learn to be stingy like your father. You have a promising future. You should be good and learn more useful things. Your father's stinginess is really not good. Sometimes you should be more generous at work, listen more and talk less, and take more actions and make fewer boasts. You should take action when it is time. I accept this gift. Don't worry, I will definitely pass on your words to you."
Yan Jiekuang scratched the back of his head and said, "Hey, Brother Damao, my dad is stingy, but there's nothing we can do about it. After all, it's not easy for him to support a large family. If he doesn't scheme, he'll have nothing to lose."
"Good boy, you have made progress. We will leave for Kyoto soon. We must look for Brother Damao when we get back, okay?"
It was another 400 kilometers back to Beijing, and it was dark when we arrived in Kyoto.
Xu Damao asked He Lihua to take some mushrooms, beef jerky and cheese home.
"Xu, you are really something. When you arrived at a forest farm, there were actually people running errands for you. Those people in our car were quite envious."
"In fact, the time arrangement of this activity is unreasonable. We should have gone out to buy some practical and cheap goods. You see, in Qinhuangdao, we didn't have time to buy seafood that didn't require a ticket. When we arrived in Chengde, we had to shuttle through the woods for a whole morning, eating in the cold wind. We had to go. Not going would be a bad attitude. It's just formalism. I'm lucky. A child from the compound went to Saihanba as an educated youth. Now he is a formal employee of the forest farm. I found him last night. Look, there are more than a dozen bags of things now. Can you take them back?"
"Yes, I parked my bike at work. Don't worry, I am not the same person I was before. If there are bad guys bullying me again, I will beat them so hard that their parents won't recognize them."
"Okay, it's getting late, you should go back soon. I'll find a cart and ask someone to pull it. We'll contact each other by phone later."
Not long after, Xu Damao actually found a flatbed truck, and left fifty cents for it to go to Dongsishi Street. He was just lucky, there was nothing he could do.
The next day, Xu Damao went directly to Yard 95 to deliver supplies to Yan Fugui. Third Aunt Yang Ruihua was at home.
"Hey, Auntie and Uncle, are they going to school? Is it your turn to guard the gate?"
Yang Ruihua saw that it was Xu Damao, "Oh, Damao, you seldom come to the compound after becoming an official? Where did you get all these bags of good stuff today?"
"Third Aunt, look at what you said. Just some mushrooms, milk sticks, and a few bags of tea. Do you want them? I'll give you a few bags."
"That won't do. You're so thoughtful. Just give me some to try. Speaking of milk noodles, we have them for sale at my Jiekuang Forest Farm. I've tried them and they have a strong milk flavor."
"That's right. Here, these three bags are for you. They contain mushrooms, milk noodles, tea leaves, and buckwheat noodles. I didn't even look at them. These are what your Jie Kuang asked me to bring back to honor you two."
Yang Ruihua was a little confused, "Da Mao, your third aunt is old and her brain is not working well, how come you ran into Jie Kuang?"
"I'm not lying to you. Our company went there for a visit and study. I remembered that Jie Kuang was in the forest farm, so I went to talk to him. Your Jie Kuang asked me to bring him to you. I have to tell you, don't worry, he is doing well and is preparing to take the college entrance examination this year. Maybe someone in your family will go to college this year. Three bags, keep them. I bought some for myself. I'm going to the Intermediate Court to deliver some to Brother Dongsheng's family. As for the three aunts, I'm going in now. See you later."
The more they bought, the faster they divided it up: Zhang, Hu, Pu, and Fang. One point and it was gone.
"Xiao Ru, take this back and give it to your parents. Take your share from here."
"Why don't you buy more? These mushrooms, beef jerky, and cheese are all good things. The golden lotus tea is even better. It is known as the best tea outside the Great Wall."
"There's no time for shopping during this trip. If you want to eat, we can find a chance this summer to go there and buy it ourselves. It's not too far and we can get there quickly by train."
"You said it, don't regret it later. I think it's better to take the kids out to play as soon as possible."
"Yes, sure. The scenery over there is really nice. The former desert has reappeared as the beautiful high mountains outside the Great Wall. It is very beautiful. The beef and mutton are also very delicious. This is one of the biggest gains of this event."
"So what's the second reward?"
Xu Damao paused for a moment, then turned to Gu Meifang and Xiaoru and said slowly, "He Lihua has returned to Beijing and is now the secretary of the Youth League Committee of our main factory. We met by chance at this event. Xiaoru, Meifang, don't look at me like that. There's nothing between her and me. We just had a heart-to-heart talk. She asked me not to disturb her peaceful life, and I will not disturb her current life at will. But Lihua will let you go see him if you have a chance, but you can't reveal our past feelings."
"Is that it?" Fang Xiaoru looked skeptical.
"What else do you want? I'm not Hu Hansan, and I'm going back. Lihua said that he is an excellent man, and now he is the director of the new production line workshop. He is very sincere to her, and she can't and won't let him down. Do you think I will disturb her casually? As long as she lives well, that's really good. I can't be too selfish. I once had it, so why bother about how long it will last."
Fang Xiaoru remained silent...
