Everyone nodded and sat together. Wang Jianguo spoke first, introducing the layout of the supply and marketing cooperative at a rapid speed:

"Da Guang, although the front and back yards of this supply and marketing cooperative are not very large, there are many corners. When you patrol at night, you must pay special attention to key areas such as the front door, back door, and warehouse..."

Cheng Hai took over the conversation and added:

"Also, the shelves where the goods are stored are somewhat unstable. When you are inspecting, if you find any of them leaning, you must straighten them in time to prevent them from hitting anyone or damaging anything."

Yu Daguang listened attentively, nodded slightly from time to time, and asked a few questions in a low voice. His nervousness gradually dissipated, and he immersed himself in the discussion about the future operation of the supply and marketing cooperative.

Outside the window, the warm winter sun shines on the ground, reflecting the focused faces of several people in the house, and seems to foreshadow the peaceful days that the supply and marketing cooperative is about to begin.

Cheng Hai took Yu Daguang on a careful tour inside and outside the supply and marketing cooperative. As they walked, he patiently introduced the conditions of each place to Yu Daguang.

From the warehouse where goods are stored, to the room where everyone works on weekdays, to the small kitchen in the backyard, every detail is described one by one.

After the inspection, Cheng Hai stopped and turned to Da Guang and said:

"Da Guang, this is where you will be on duty from now on. Look, this little house will be your 'exclusive territory' from now on."

"Although it's not spacious and luxurious, it's clean, tidy, warm and comfortable. Go home now and get some daily necessities for yourself."

"Arrange this place to your liking. Only when you live comfortably can you work with peace of mind. Here are the keys, take them and go."

As he spoke, Cheng Hai handed over a shiny key with a gentle smile on his face.

Yu Daguang took the key with great joy, holding it tightly in his hand as if he had obtained a treasure, his eyes sparkling, and he hurriedly agreed:

"Okay, Brother Cheng, I'll go right away."

After saying this, he walked away happily with brisk steps, humming a tuneless little song, and his back showed a sense of excitement.

After Yu Daguang had walked far away and his figure completely disappeared around the corner, Cheng Hai put away the smile on his face and his expression became a little mysterious.

He pulled Zhao Shuzhuo up and took him to a corner. He leaned closer and asked in a low voice:

"Shuzhuo, tell me quickly, how did you convince Daguang to come to the supply and marketing cooperative? This guy is usually a stubborn person."

"Once he made up his mind to join the production team, he wouldn't let go. Why did he let go today? Did you threaten him?"

Cheng Hai's eyes were full of curiosity and inquiry. He stared at Zhao Shuzhuo closely, as if trying to find the answer from his face.

When Zhao Shuzhuo heard this, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a slightly smug smile. He waved his hand disdainfully and said:

"Brother Hai, look at how happy he was just now. He even walked with the wind. Does he look like he was threatened?"

"I just told him the importance of the supply and marketing cooperative and offered him a few small 'benefits', and he came willingly."

There was a hint of pride in Zhao Shuzhuo's tone and a hint of cunning in his eyes, as if he was secretly proud of his "strategy".

Cheng Hai frowned, his face full of doubts. He tilted his head slightly, his eyes full of confusion. He shook his head in confusion, thinking to himself:

Yu Daguang was usually an honest and stubborn person, so why did he suddenly change his mind and come to the supply and marketing cooperative? What was the secret behind this?

Zhao Shuzhuo stood aside and took in all the changes in Cheng Hai's expression. Looking at his bewildered look, he couldn't help but burst out laughing.

He walked forward, patted Cheng Hai's shoulder gently, and said with a smile:

"Brother Hai, stop guessing. I'll tell you the truth. This is what happened. You know Daguang is already 25 or 26 years old."

"In the village, people his age have children everywhere, but he is still single. This has always been a concern for him."

Zhao Shuzhuo paused for a moment, a sly look flashed in his eyes, and then he said, "I was thinking, I have to find some motivation for him from this.

"So, I told him that there are single female comrades in our supply and marketing cooperative, and the working environment is relatively relaxed."

"After he comes, we will spend every day together. Maybe one day he will be able to meet the girls. If he is lucky, he can even find a partner."

At this point, Zhao Shuzhuo's face was filled with a proud smile, as if he was applauding his own "good trick".

"You know what, this trick really works. When he heard this, his eyes lit up immediately. All his hesitation just now disappeared. He was moved on the spot and agreed to come to our place."

As Zhao Shuzhuo spoke, he gestured with his hands, imitating Yu Daguang's heart-beating expression at that time, his tone full of teasing and relief.

Several people were talking about Yu Daguang. At this time, Wang Jianguo scratched his head, with a look of curiosity and confusion on his face, and raised his own question:

"I look at Yu Daguang. He seems to be about the same age as Brother Zhao. He is strong, down-to-earth and capable."

"How come in our village, everyone else has a family, but he still hasn't found a partner? This is a bit hard to understand."

When Zhao Shuzhuo heard what Wang Jianguo said, he sighed slightly, with some regret in his expression, and explained to Wang Jianguo:

"It's a long story. When Daguang was young, he joined the army with great enthusiasm."

"I was so full of energy at that time. I only wanted to train well in the army and serve the motherland."

"Others usually serve in the army for three years, but he performed outstandingly in the army, and with the need for various missions, he stayed for five years before being discharged."

As Zhao Shuzhuo spoke, he gestured with numbers with his hands, and the image of Yu Daguang in the army back then seemed to emerge in his eyes.

"Just think about it, in the past five years, people of my age in the village have gradually started families and careers, and children have been born one after another."

"When he returned to the village after retiring from the army, he was much older than the others. People of his age had already married and started a family and were living a simple life."

"And those unmarried girls are too far apart in age from him. If they were to form a couple, they wouldn't be suitable in every way."

"So, as time goes by, the matter of finding a partner has been delayed."

After Zhao Shuzhuo finished speaking, everyone couldn't help but sigh for Yu Daguang's situation, and they also understood why he was so concerned about the single girls in the supply and marketing cooperative.
