Rebirth has space, and the new love sends the bad husband to prison
Chapter 26: Inviting Comrade Liang to Dinner
The purchasing station is actually more like a large vegetable distribution center. All the vegetables here are used exclusively by the town's canteens and state-owned restaurants, and are not sold privately. The vegetables sent by farmers must be strictly inspected by inspectors, and those labeled as unqualified can only be taken back helplessly. In the hot summer, some vegetables will become wilted after such a back and forth.
When facing the inspectors, the vegetable farmers always behaved very respectfully and politely, fearing that their vegetables would be judged as unqualified. After all, the fruits of the entire team's labor rested on their shoulders. At this time, the vegetable farmers had finished unloading and were busy loading. There was a supply and marketing cooperative next to the purchasing station, and the vegetable farmers would help the villagers bring daily necessities, mostly sugar, salt, and corn grits.
After Section Chief Zhang came out of the director's office, he was worried. He thought over and over again that only by finding Liang Sumei to ask for her help could he get out of this matter. So he left the office and rode his bicycle to look for her in the busy streets and alleys. Finally, he saw the familiar figure at the purchasing station. He walked up to her and greeted her with a flattering smile: "Hello, Comrade Liang!"
Liang Sumei still had doubts about whether Section Chief Zhang was involved in this matter, so she smiled and responded: "Hello, Section Chief Zhang."
"Hello, hello." Section Chief Zhang stretched out his hand and wanted to shake hands with Liang Sumei, but she cleverly avoided it.
Section Chief Zhang was slightly embarrassed, but he immediately adjusted his attitude and asked tentatively: "Colleague Liang, is it convenient for me to treat you to a meal?"
When Liang Sumei heard this, she understood about 70% of it. She guessed that Section Chief Zhang must have offended a big shot because of her affairs, and the big shot sent him to find her to ease the relationship. In Liang Sumei's opinion, Aunt Du is likely to be that big shot. But then she thought that Aunt Du works in the Communications Department. How could the Communications Department have such a great influence? She temporarily suppressed her doubts, and looking at Section Chief Zhang's flattering look, she was no longer polite, and said in a cold tone, "I'm going back soon, and I don't have time to eat with you."
"Comrade Liang, this is a small gift from me. Please accept it." Section Chief Zhang said as he took out a bar of soap from his coat pocket and handed it to Liang Sumei with a smile.
Seeing this, Liang Sumei couldn't help but curl her lips and muttered to herself: "Just a piece of worn-out soap can be considered a token of your love?" However, she thought again that in this era of scarcity, soap is indeed a rare item. But the problem is that in the space mall she owns, there are all kinds of soaps of various brands and colors. How can a mere piece of soap impress her?
Thinking of this, Liang Sumei couldn't help but sneered: "Huh, Chief Zhang, what do you mean by this?"
Comrade Liang, I don't mean anything else, I just want to make friends with you." Section Chief Zhang's tone was very sincere.
Liang Sumei smiled awkwardly: "You are the chief of the department, and I am a country girl. How dare I befriend you?"
"Calm down." Section Chief Zhang looked embarrassed.
"Calm down? I'm not angry at all, what should I calm down? Chief Zhang, I think you are worrying too much." Liang Sumei looked at the vegetable farmer who had finished loading the goods and was resting on the side.
Section Chief Zhang said earnestly: "Comrade Liang, I did something wrong this morning, and the leader has severely criticized me. I apologize to you and hope you can forgive me."
Liang Sumei responded calmly: "Oh"
Seeing that her attitude was getting colder, Section Chief Zhang stopped talking about other things and directly begged, "Comrade Liang, if the leader asks you about this, can you help me smooth things over by saying that I haven't seen the agreement, okay?"
Liang Sumei was silent for a moment, and finally spoke: "Chief Zhang, you know whether you have read the agreement or not. Don't worry, I will not disclose what happened in your office today. After all, you still have to work in the German Investment Association, and I will not do such things as destroying other people's jobs or digging up their ancestors' graves." Her words revealed a hint of sarcasm and tolerance, which made Chief Zhang's originally nervous mood relax a little. He wanted to put the soap into Liang Suling's hand again, but was pushed away by Liang Sumei.
Liang Sumei sat on the bumpy oxcart back to the village. The old vegetable farmer driving the cart was surnamed Li and was from Lijia Village. Lijia Village and Tianwa Village were adjacent, and the two villages were only 2 miles apart. Liang Sumei needed to get off the car not far from the village head, say goodbye to Uncle Li, and then continue walking back to the village. The one-hour journey allowed the grandfather and grandson, who were temporarily together, to chat. "Uncle Li, how much salary do you get for delivering vegetables to the town?" Liang Sumei asked curiously.
Mr. Li shook his head and said, "No."
"Hey, are you afraid that I will take your job? We are not from the same village," Liang Sumei was speechless.
Uncle Li laughed loudly. "Hahaha, girl, let me tell you this. The cows belong to the team, the carts belong to the team, and the vegetables belong to the team. I am just a coolie running errands. If anything goes wrong with the cows, carts, and vegetables, I will be the only one responsible."
Liang Sumei frowned and said, "Then why not add another person? Two people are always safer than one person, and we can chat like we do to relieve boredom."
"Hey, don't say that. Two people will be more troublesome. Not only will the money we get be half less, but there will be more work. Even though my job is just a runner, I am paid by the state and there are many people who want to do it," said Mr. Li with a hint of pride.
"Then how did you get such a good thing?" Liang Sumei asked curiously again.
"Hey, little girl, what do you mean? Do you think I'm old? Let me tell you this, in our village, no one can compare to me when it comes to quick work. I have to pick the fresh vegetables early in the morning and load them onto trucks while they are still fresh. After loading, I quickly deliver them to the purchasing station. I've been doing this for so many years, and no inspector has ever said that my vegetables are unqualified." The old man answered proudly.
"It turns out there are so many tricks to making food," Liang Sumei was surprised.
Mr. Li nodded. "Of course. But then again, you have a lot of vegetable fields in Tianwa Village, right? Why don't I see people from your village delivering vegetables?"
"Uh..." Liang Sumei was stunned by the question, and then answered vaguely, "I don't know either."
"If we don't deliver vegetables every two or three days, there will be no dividends in the village at the end of the year. Life will be difficult," the old man sighed.
Liang Sumei couldn't help but worry when she heard what Uncle Li said. As Uncle Li said, Tianwa Village was only approved for a total of 3 pigs this year. If they wanted to continue raising pigs, they would have to use the village's own funds to buy piglets. However, the village had no spare money. The captain of the high-yield team tried to organize everyone to raise funds to buy pigs, but this proposal was rejected by most people. After all, many villagers had never raised pigs before. They were worried that if the pigs died, they would not only lose all their money, but their lives would become even more difficult.
Suddenly, Liang Sumei realized that the person in charge of delivering vegetables in Tianwa Village was the captain's father-in-law! This old man would sleep until noon every day and then get up slowly. How could he have time to pack vegetables? He took the country's money but did nothing. Due to the captain's power, the villagers did not dare to express their opinions easily, for fear of being targeted by the captain. Over time, the people who took care of the vegetable fields gradually lost their enthusiasm and motivation, resulting in almost no vegetables being distributed to the villagers.
