Good mountains, good water, good people

At around four o'clock in the afternoon, the courier brother drove a tricycle into their village to deliver the package. Seeing that Boss Gu was there, he greeted Boss Gu with a smile and said, "Boss Gu, when did you come back?"

"I just came back today. Are you here to pull the package today?" Gu Changning is also familiar with the little brother who comes to pull the package every day. He holds two small cucumbers that he doesn't know where to find, and he bites one I was eating, and I also handed one to my brother.

Now that there are more and more packages on their side every day, the owner of the courier shop in the town sends people into their village to pick up the goods every afternoon, which saves them from having to go out twice a day to deliver them.If there is a rush to send in the morning, they will pull it out to the express store in the town to send it. If there are too many, they can also contact there and send someone in to pull it in.

"Yeah, I'm the one who pulls things every day." The younger brother didn't hesitate to take the cucumbers that Boss Gu handed over. The cucumbers in this season haven't arrived yet, and only Boss Gu's There are such tender cucumbers here in the farm.

After taking a bite, the cucumber in the mouth was tender and crisp, and the eyes of the little second brother lit up immediately, "It's delicious! Do you have cucumbers for sale here?"

"The sale hasn't started yet, it's too small, and it needs to grow." Even if he tried to pick two small cucumbers, he would be stared at by the uncle who watched the shed with unfriendly eyes. If he didn't know that he was the boss, Gu Changning suspected that the uncle had to beat him out.Not to mention that the cucumbers are picked and sold when they are still so young, isn't that a waste of things?It is estimated that his boss would not even agree to sell employees.

"Is that all you have for today? Our boss asked me to bring him something back, and he said he has sent you an order." The courier guy comes to deliver the package every day and helps the boss and colleagues buy things by the way. Today is Came with a mission.

"All the packages we want to send should be here." Gu Changning asked the low-key employees, and after confirming that there was nothing missing in the express packages they wanted to send, he asked for help to carry the things to the car together.In addition to the little girl that was originally hired, the online store has hired another young man from their village, who is mainly responsible for packing and shipping.

Several people carried the things to the car together, and there was another item that the boss of the courier shop asked for, and the weight was not small.

Gu Changning handed a list to the younger brother alone, "These chickens, this big box and this small box are all what your boss wants, and the small box contains eggs. This is the list, you will take it later." Go back to your boss."

"Slow down when you drive, don't smash the eggs on top, your boss will deduct your wages later." The chickens are all live chickens, and they don't sell live chickens in their store, but if If someone wants it, they will be responsible for delivering it.

The eggs in their store are not enough to sell every day. The wife of the owner of the courier store is about to give birth recently. When I come to him to buy chickens and eggs, it is impossible for them not to sell them.Fortunately, the hens on the Houshan side have laid a little more eggs recently, otherwise they really wouldn't be able to make up such a box of eggs.

"I know, I know, the boss has told me several times." The little brother closed the door skillfully, sat in the driver's seat, waved to Boss Xiao Gu and the others, and drove the tricycle out.

Just as the courier brother's car was leaving, Gu Changning saw Liu Jinlan coming in on a tram.

"Boss." Liu Jinlan happened to come back to the village after work in the afternoon to pick up her three children, who now live with her in the town.But today, the boss asked her to come over from get off work a little earlier to talk to her about something, and she probably knew what the boss wanted to talk to her about.

"Here we come, come and sit here." Seeing someone coming, Gu Changning led him to sit at the lunch place.

After giving up the small room to others to sleep in, he didn’t even have a place to work. When he talked with people, he would go directly to the door here, where there were tables, chairs, and tea-making facilities. Teapot and utensils for making tea.

The two sat down, Gu Changning poured someone a glass of water and handed it over, and said, "If you think about it, you also know why I came here for you."

"Is it because of the new shop?"

Seeing Liu Jinlan nodded, Gu Changning continued: "Well, yes, I mentioned this to you before. The new shop in the city will open in a few days. You are familiar with the things in the shop. At that time, we will have to draw a veteran and a novice from the old store to go there. There is a place to live there, and it is more convenient to eat and live. If someone is not willing to work there, they will be transferred back here. .”

"Well, I have already told them about this and asked them what they mean. Sister-in-law Zhang said that she is willing to go there. Sister-in-law Zhang is good at making pancakes. If she goes over there, the pancake-making staff will It should be fine." Liu Jinlan also asked the employees in the store about their wishes, some of them were willing to go, and some didn't want to go, and she also had to consider the wishes of the employees.

As for her own side, it is not a big problem to go for a few days, but it may not be possible to stay there for a long time.

Gu Changning was also aware of this point, and the two talked about it for a while.Gu Changning knew that Liu Jinlan had to go to school to pick up the child, so he stopped talking about it, "Okay, let's discuss this matter for the time being. The school is about to end, you go pick up the child first, and the rest Let’s discuss it later.”

"Okay, I will make arrangements in advance, and I will go there with you when the time comes. Then I will pick up the person first, and the boss will call me later if you need anything." Liu Jinlan has a straightforward temper and complies with the boss's request. Afterwards, I got up and rode a small electric donkey to school to pick up the three children.

As soon as the elementary school in the village is over, the road is full of children carrying schoolbags to go home, and some children run to the back mountain with schoolbags on their backs as soon as school is over.

***

Two days later, I received a call from my cousin, saying that the shop in the city was almost finished.

Early the next morning, Gu Changning drove to the city by himself. After checking and accepting the shop, he settled the wages of Master Zhao, and invited Master Zhao and the others to the restaurant for a good meal. This is a thank you to Master Zhao. A few of them have worked hard during this period of time.

In the morning, someone was invited to come and clean the store, and in the afternoon the equipment they ordered was delivered to the store, and the signboard was hung on the gate, waiting for the opening the day after tomorrow.

The dormitory has also been cleaned up in advance, and they are waiting for new employees to move in.

After arranging all the work at the shop, the two brothers drove back home.

On the way, the two brothers each drove a car. Gu Changning drove Qin You's car when he came, and he also drove the car back when he went back. His own car was driven by his cousin.

Just when they got home, it was time to wait for dinner.

Master Gao and Qin You also just came back from the outside. They were sitting in the yard talking. Master Gao held a blueprint in his hand. It seemed that he had some objection to the line drawn on it. The two were discussing it.

As soon as Gu Changning entered the door, he saw the man who was talking to Master Gao with his face sideways. His sleeves were pulled up to his wrists, revealing half of his arms. His face looked paler than Master Gao, but it was actually Master Gao and the others. These masters work in the sun all day long, and their skin is very dark.

"Sit down for a while, I'll go inside and have a look." Meeting the man looking at him, the two exchanged a look, Gu Changning greeted everyone with a smile, and looked in the direction of the kitchen .After finding his mother, second aunt, and grandma, they were all here, and he came out after saying hello to the family.

There are still a lot of people eating at night, they just need a table for themselves, Master Gao and Qin You also need to set up a table, and everyone sits around the table to eat.

"I thought you guys came back after two days. I didn't expect to come back after so many days." Second Aunt Gu saw her son who had been away for a long time before coming back. In the past, his son often drove long distances, and there were only a few days in a month. at home.After returning to her hometown, she could see her two sons by her side every day. Second Aunt Gu was not used to her son leaving and it took her many days to come back.

"Do you want to go over there this time when you come back?" Second Aunt Gu asked.

"Yes, the shop over there opens on May [-]st, and I'm going there tomorrow." Gu Chunsheng told his family that their new shop was about to open.

"It's fine to go to the market. Are you going to stay there to do things in the future?" Now the two sons come back to work with the eldest nephew, and the husband and wife are also helping the eldest nephew's farm. They have a fixed salary every month. Although it is not as high as their wages in the city, the money they need to spend to live in the countryside is not so much. At least it can save a month's money for rent, water and electricity, not to mention Said that they now eat with their eldest nephew every day, and they don't have to pay for the meals themselves.

If Second Aunt Gu was a little reluctant to return to her hometown in the past, but now she comes back and finds that her life is not much worse than theirs in the city, and even much more comfortable than their life in the city, then Second Aunt Gu would There was no further talk about going back to the city.

But for the two sons here, Second Aunt Gu doesn't really want the two children to stay in the countryside. If the two sons can go to the market in the future and develop there, it will be better than staying at home.So she also had selfish intentions in her heart, and she hoped that by opening a store this time, her nephew would send her eldest son to the city to do business.

"I'm not sure about this. Recently, there is a shortage of manpower for the opening of the new store over there. I will go there to help out for a while." Gu Chunsheng knew what his mother wanted to ask when he saw his mother's opening, but at this moment he didn't I really want my mother to talk about this matter in front of everyone. After all, whether there is a need for someone over there and who will go there are all arranged by his big brother, and he is just running errands for his big brother.

It's not that he would feel unbalanced about this in his heart. After following his lobby brother out to do business, Gu Chunsheng could see it clearly in his own eyes, knowing that he still had a lot of things he didn't understand, and there were many things he needed to know. What he learned from his big cousin, even if he doesn't work for his cousin in the future, he can come out and be the boss by himself, right?

So compared to his mother's vision, Gu Chunsheng thinks things in a longer term.
