Rebirth of Bayi Fishing and Hunting in the Northwest

Chapter 81 This is a great experience

After the factory director left, Section Chief Hu gave Li Long a thumbs up:

"Comrade Xiao Li, you are really efficient! Fortunately you delivered the sheep before the end of the shift, otherwise I would be embarrassed today."

As he said this, he turned around and cursed at Xiao Wang:

"You bastard, did you spread this to others? Otherwise, how did the whole factory know that I was going to get rid of the sheep?"

Xiao Wang was about to explain himself, feeling a little aggrieved, when someone came out of the factory and asked with a smile:
"Chief Hu, is this the welfare we received before the New Year? Not bad, not bad. This sheep looks quite fresh. You, the logistics chief, did a great job!"

"No, no, this is my job, Secretary Xu. I'll deliver the mutton to your home when I divide it up!" Section Chief Hu's expression changed immediately and he responded with a smile.

"Chief Hu, can we unload the truck and weigh it first? We have to rush back to Ma County today." Li Long waited for Chief Hu to finish speaking, then hurriedly said, "Time waits for no one."

"Okay, okay, okay." Section Chief Hu was very happy now. He had shown face in front of the factory director and secretary, so he no longer cared about Xiao Wang's matter.

The security guard Xiao Wang watched the people leave, wiped his sweat, and then he felt that Li Long was a good person. He said that just now, otherwise he would have been scolded.

Li Long and Tao Daqiang drove a horse-drawn carriage and followed Section Chief Hu to the logistics warehouse.

"Luo Laosi, quickly push the scale over here, it's time to get down to business!" Section Chief Hu shouted loudly at the warehouse door.

Soon someone came over with a scale, looked at the tall "mountain of sheep", and said happily:

"Chief Hu, we got a lot this time. With so many sheep, each family should be able to get at least 7 or 8 kilograms, right?"

"Let's finish the weighing first." Section Chief Hu said with a smile, "Hurry up and finish the work. We still have to settle the bill with the little brother."

The two men immediately stepped forward to untie the ropes, and Li Long and Tao Daqiang also joined in to help unload the truck.

There were twenty-two sheep, weighing a total of three hundred and sixty-three kilograms. Section Chief Hu was very good at mental arithmetic and quickly worked out that he had to pay Li Long three hundred and forty-four dollars and eighty-five cents.

"You're a good young man. Come with me to pay the bill. You've done me a great favor this time, so I won't delay your business."

Li Long followed Section Chief Hu to the finance department to settle the accounts. When they arrived at the accounting office, the accountant and cashier had already locked the door.

"Xiao Liu, Sister Ma, please wait a few minutes. I just received a truckload of mutton and I have to pay the bill."

"Chief Hu, are you going to share the mutton with us?" The young female financial staff member smiled and said, "Then we will definitely have no problem."

"That's right." The older man also smiled and said, "How much is the payment?"

"Here is the warehouse receipt. Three hundred and sixty-three kilograms, ninety-five cents a kilogram, equal to three hundred and forty-four dollars and eighty-five cents."

Li Long went in to pay the bill and took out more than 300 yuan and a stack of big unity. He felt more excited than the nearly 1,000 yuan he had earned from selling jade before.

After all, this is the hard-earned money of the Yushanjiang and Halimu families.

By the time the two men drove the carriage away from the sugar factory, the sun had already set.

"Brother Long, are we going back to the team now?" Tao Daqiang asked.

"No, I'll stay in the county for one night. We have to go to the mountains tomorrow." He took out a ten-yuan note and handed it to Tao Daqiang:
"Daqiang, these ten dollars are for today's hard work."

"Brother Long, I don't want it. You gave me too much money from selling fish, and I haven't paid you back yet." Tao Daqiang is very clear about his own position now. Besides, Li Long just gave him ten yuan yesterday, which was considered an advance income. How could he ask for more?
"It's different. I won't give you money then because I'll have to sell fish one or two times later. This ten yuan is for your hard work today and tomorrow." Li Long stuffed ten yuan into his hand and said, "I won't give you money before the New Year. If we can come back early tomorrow, you can use the money to buy some things in the county. It will be hard to buy New Year goods before the New Year."

"Hey." Tao Daqiang took the money and although he didn't say anything, he was really grateful to Li Long in his heart. He knew that not many people in the team looked up to him. Last time, he was the one who betrayed Brother Long first, but Brother Long didn't let it go and let him follow him. He really had nothing to say about him.

Tao Daqiang secretly swore that he would help Brother Long in the future, and if he encountered robbery or fight again, he would definitely rush to the front!

Unfortunately, I had a safe journey today and didn’t meet anyone with malicious intentions until I reached the county town.

Li Long brought Tao Daqiang to the old house and saw that the door was locked.

"Brother Long, what are you doing here?" Tao Daqiang was a little surprised. "The door of this house is locked... I remember now, isn't this the house of that... the old man who bought our fish last time?"

"Well." Li Long said, "I'll use this house first." He took out the key to unlock it, motioned Tao Daqiang to push the door open, and he pulled the carriage in.

The situation in the yard was no different from yesterday. Li Long led the carriage to the backyard, and together with Tao Daqiang, he unloaded the carriage, tied the horses to the pillars, pulled out the grass from under the carriage, picked out the clean grass to feed the horses, and then the two of them came to the main house.

The lock on the main door was half-hanging. Li Long took off the lock and pushed open the door. He was a little surprised to find that there was electricity inside!
Pulling the light cord, with a "click", the room suddenly became bright.

"Brother Long, are we staying here tonight?" Tao Daqiang was a little reserved. He had never lived in such a big house before.

"Yes." Li Long smiled and said, "Let's go and find you a place to live."

The main house has three doors and five rooms. In addition to the main living room, there is a study, a utility room and two bedrooms.

Li Long naturally lived in the master bedroom. There was a guest room on the westernmost side. Li Long said to Tao Daqiang:
"Da Qiang, you'll stay here tonight. Let's set up the stove first."

The master bedroom and living room share a stove and a fire wall. What surprised Li Long was that there was also a floor heating system similar to floor heating. The smoke and warm air passed through the ground, which was quite novel.

The two men searched outside and found a coal shed, firewood and corn cobs for starting a fire, and some waste newspapers in the west wing.

The two of them lit the stove, and soon the room became warm.

Li Long went to the kitchen in the west wing and looked around. There was rice and flour, but the vegetables were only cabbage, potatoes, carrots, etc. Tao Daqiang followed Li Long and asked when he saw them:

"Brother Long, do you want me to make some rice porridge?"

Rice porridge is actually rice porridge. Li Long nodded and said, "Okay, let's cut some cabbage into a cold dish."

"I can't..." Tao Daqiang touched his head.

"Then you cook the porridge first, and I'll do it later."

Tao Daqiang was building a fire here again. Fortunately, there were matches on the stove. He often did this at home and was very skilled at it.

Li Long began to walk around the rooms to satisfy his curiosity.

Then he saw half a box of "money" in the study.
