Siheyuan: I earned foreign exchange in the heyday

Chen Changan didn't have anything urgent to do, so he decided to listen to what Xu Damao was going to say to him.

Xu Damao said, "Changan, if you don't have a job, then I, Xu Damao, can't have a job either. For all these years, in addition to showing movies for the factory, I also often go to the surrounding countryside to show movies. Over time, I have gotten to know many brigade secretaries, village heads, and the like. For example, the Red Star Commune we went to this time has a relatively remote small village called Yangjia Village. They are all relatives within the fifth degree of mourning. They are very united. Their place is relatively remote and close to the mountains. As a result, their village raised a lot of chickens, ducks, and geese on a mountain. There are also many pigs. In fact, several purchasing agents from other factories knew about this. But everyone was a purchasing agent, so no one reported it. If the people don't report it, the officials won't investigate it. This was not discovered by your brother Damao when he went to that village to show a movie. They promised to sell me some of the things. I don't have the purchasing power, so I'll give this good thing to you, brother."

After saying all this in one breath, Xu Damao looked very proud, as if he was waiting for Chen Changan to thank him.

Chen Changan had a lot of things to consider at this time.

The first question is whether what Xu Damao said is true, or how true it is.

Maybe Xu Damao did not lie, but the information he received was somewhat true or false.

Is it true that not many people know about this? If you raise a lot of chickens, ducks, geese, and pigs, should you sell them? As long as you sell them, or even as long as you keep them, it is impossible to avoid leaks.

Secondly, did Xu Damao really discover it by accident? Everyone in the same village is a relative. How could you, an outsider who shows movies, let you know what is raised in the mountains? At least Chen Changan didn't believe that an outsider like you could discover it by accident.

Finally, they let you find out and tell you to come back and buy from their village. Is there such a good thing?

But in this day and age, regardless of whether the village would do so, asking you to go shopping is not necessarily a good thing.

After thinking for a long time, Chen Changan decided to go and see what was going on.

It is certainly a good thing if you can really make the purchase, but if it is fake, then just consider it a wasted trip.

After thanking Xu Damao and giving him cigarettes and flattering him, Xu Damao promised to tell Chen Changan if he had any news about the nearby villages next time, and the conversation between the two ended.

After hesitating for a long time, Chen Changan still felt that it was not safe. He always felt that there was something strange about this matter. It was not that he could not complete the task, so there was no need to take risks.

Remember Yangjia Village, I will visit it again when I have the chance.

The fish at noon was pretty good, probably because of Sha Zhu's cooking. Looking at the workers around him who were happy to eat hairtail, Chen Changan thought that the aquatic product company was becoming more and more powerful, and the hairtail had already started to supply the steel mill.

Think about it, after all, it is a state-owned large company. Even if we calculate it as one kilogram per 10,000 people in a steel rolling mill, it is only 10,000 kilograms, or five tons. For a state-owned enterprise or for the supply of the four-nine cities, it is just a matter of a few train cars.

After dinner, Chen Changan had made arrangements for the things he was going to build, so he left the factory and went back to see how the house was going.

Passing by the supply and marketing cooperative and seeing the soda being sold at the door, Chen Changan suddenly remembered that he had been here for such a long time, but he had never tasted the famous Beibingyang soda.

It's already autumn. If you don't drink it now, it will freeze into ice in winter and you won't have the chance to drink it again.

Thinking about his sister, and thinking about the fact that he still lives in Director Wang's house, Chen Changan hesitated. My buddy is not short of money, so just buy it. It won't hurt to be criticized. As long as you are thick-skinned enough, you will not be afraid of boiling water.

Not only did he buy a lot of Beibingyang soda, he also took the meat coupons and bought a few pounds of meat before heading towards Director Wang's house.

Seeing Chen Changan bringing so many things in, the sister-in-law complained to Chen Changan that he didn't know how to save money and spent money lavishly, but Chen Changan pretended not to hear.

In the end, the sister-in-law said that she wanted to find a partner for Chen Changan, get married quickly and take care of Chen Changan. This scared Chen Changan so much that he ran out.

I'm still a kid, I haven't had enough fun.

As the successor of communism, I have not reached the legal age for marriage. Why should I get married? I, Chen Changan, cannot break the law knowingly.

Seeing Chen Changan coming, Master Qian came over and began to report the construction progress to Chen Changan. He also asked Chen Changan to check the finished parts and the quality of some purchased materials.

Chen Changan gave cigarettes to each of the masters and chatted with them for a while. After confirming that the repair would be completed in two or three days, Chen Changan turned to Shichahai again. After all, fishing was his hobby.

I saw Uncle Xiao from a distance. When I got closer, I realized that he was fishing with corn just like I learned from him. Okay, I'll just stay here this afternoon.

It's so boring, I don't know what to do.

Seeing Chen Changan coming again, Uncle Xiao was speechless and said, "You are really idle. It seems that I really should find something for you to do."

Upon hearing this, Chen Changan immediately retorted, "Mr. Xiao, it's hard to say who is freer between the two of us. Anyway, I see you nine out of ten times I come here. Can you reflect on yourself before you criticize others?"

Uncle Xiao said, "I am already so old, and most of my body is already infected. How can you compare with me? I have done so much for the country, what have you done?"

Chen Changan said, "Oh, now you say that I have no credit. When I helped you solve the problem, I don't know who kept saying, thank you, Comrade Chen Changan, thank you for your contribution to the country. Now that the job is done, you turn your back on me, right? You are too... How do you say it? Demolish the bridge after crossing it, beat the cook after dinner, cook the running dog after the rabbit dies. Put away the bow after the bird is dead, right?"

Uncle Xiao smiled and said, "Okay, okay, you have made a contribution, okay?" Then he changed the subject and continued, "I heard from Xiao Liu that you can repair cars?"

"I understand a little bit."

"When I first met you, I asked you if you knew how to fish, and you said the same thing," said Uncle Xiao.

Chen Changan said, "Really? Why don't I remember it? I would say that I know a little bit about fishing? But I really know a little bit about repairing cars."

Uncle Xiao didn't care about what Chen Changan said, and continued to ask, "You are a junior high school graduate, where did you learn to repair cars?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Changan's heart skipped a beat. Yes, in this life, he was just a junior high school graduate, and logically, he didn't know anything. In this era, people like him couldn't get in touch with cars. Inexplicably, he knew more about car repairs than drivers who had been driving for many years. This made him unable to justify himself.

Only at this moment did Chen Changan realize that the self-righteous person was referring to himself.
