60s: I have a store

Chapter 73 Other People’s Children
Zhang Jianshe tied the box of eggs to the back of the bicycle and placed the pork on the front handlebar, then carefully headed towards the research institute.

Even though the box of eggs was covered with straw to protect it from shock, he still didn't dare to be careless.

These are all nutrition for our comrades!

In the research institute, everyone has not gone home yet, waiting for good news from Zhang Jianshe.

"Old Zhang is back."

"Go and help."

They saw Zhang Jianshe coming back with something from the window and knew it was meat and eggs. Everyone was overjoyed and went downstairs to greet Zhang Jianshe.

"Be careful, those are eggs." Zhang Jianshe said to everyone.

When everyone heard this, they immediately began to tiptoe.

They carried the meat and eggs back to their laboratory, closed the door, opened the bag, and lifted the cloth on the frame. The pork that was exposed was very fresh, with mostly fat, which made them excited.

And those eggs, it was the first time for some of them to touch so many eggs.

"Let's split it equally! I'll return the extra money to you. Originally, the meat and eggs were 75 yuan, but I gave 80 yuan." Zhang Jianshe explained it clearly to everyone.

If everyone doesn't want to pay the 5 yuan, it's fine if he pays it himself.

Sun Guowei said: "Okay, let's split it evenly!"

Of course, it was impossible to ask Zhang Jianshe to pay for it himself, so he could understand giving him an extra 5 yuan. Now, meat costs 1 yuan per pound, and eggs cost 5 cents. Although it is higher than the market price, it is still difficult to buy.

Their salaries are actually not low, they all have some money.

"Yes! It must be shared equally."

Everyone here is an intellectual. We all understand that we don't want to do anything that would lower our reputation.

So, they started to divide the meat and the knives were ready.

Each person gets about 4.2 kilograms of pork and 40 eggs, and the rest is shared among those with more family members. No one has any objection to this distribution plan.

When everyone happily returned home with meat and eggs, Sun Guowei gave Zhang Jianshe a cigarette and asked, "Mr. Zhang, whose way did you take? Can I buy it again in the future?"

"Lao Zhou's son Yimin is now in purchasing, so don't tell anyone about it."

Sun Guowei was stunned. He never expected that it was Lao Zhou's son who brought them meat and eggs.

Lao Zhou used to be their colleague, but he was secretly transferred some time ago due to the needs of the organization. Although they didn't ask where he was transferred to, they could probably guess.

"I remember that he built a water pressure well a few days ago and it was reported in the newspaper." Sun Guowei.

"If things go wrong, it will be in the newspaper again in a few days."

Sun Guowei was surprised and puzzled: "Why?"

"He has come up with a new thing, called a solar cooker..." Zhang Jianshe gave a brief account.

After hearing this, Sun Guowei was certain that the solar cooker could be realized 100%.

Other people’s children!

Sun Guowei was very depressed when he thought that his son failed the exam. Why is the gap so big? The gap between him and Lao Zhou is not that big. His son is like heaven and earth.

"If I remember correctly, Lao Zhou's son is dating your Yan Zi, right?"

Zhang Jianshe laughed cunningly.

"Damn it! You bastard got the advantage." Sun Guowei cursed.

He also has a daughter, but she is only one year older than Zhou Yimin.

It is said that a woman three years older than a man can bring wealth, so what is there to be afraid of if she is one year older?
Looking at Zhou Yimin's two inventions, it seems that they were both for his grandparents, which shows that the boy is very filial. Such a character, let alone other abilities, can win the favor of many elders just by this point.

……

In the evening, Master Gu brought two people and transported several pieces of antique furniture to the outside of Courtyard 56.

"You wait here, I'll go in to find him." Master Gu said.

"Okay, go ahead!"

The middle-aged man was a little discouraged. At first, he heard that the buyer was a purchasing agent, so he deliberately asked for a high price and waited for the other party to bargain. Who knew that the other party would stop talking immediately.

As time went by, he could no longer hold on and his family ran out of food.

It would be a huge loss to sell this thing to a consignment store, so he would not sell it to a consignment store unless it was absolutely necessary. Besides, he didn't want money, but food.

"Boss, boss..." Master Gu knocked on the door.

Zhou Yimin opened the door, carrying a bag of sorghum and a small cloth bag with five pounds of Chinese sausage in it, and said to Master Gu, "Master Gu, help me carry the other bag."

"it is good!"

80 kilograms of sorghum, 80 kilograms of corn, and 5 kilograms of sausage, in exchange for 6 pieces of huanghuali wood furniture.

When they got outside, the two men were looking forward to it and quickly gathered around them.

"Comrade, can I see the food first?"

Zhou Yimin nodded: "Just look at it."

The man opened the sack and reached in to stir it. He knew the quality of the corn kernels. They were very good. They had not deceived him by passing off inferior goods as good ones.

Repeat the same process for the other bag of sorghum.

very satisfied.

The 5 kilograms of sausages in the bag made him tighten the mouth of the bag as soon as he took one look, as if he was afraid that the smell would escape.

"Comrade, thank you." The father and son, each carrying a bag of grain and the five kilograms of sausages, left stealthily.

"Boss, do you want me to help you move in?"

Zhou Yimin shook his head: "No, thank you Master Gu for this time. I will prepare a small gift for you tomorrow. I hope you won't refuse it."

"Boss, you are too polite."

After thinking for a while, Zhou Yimin said, "Master Gu, please go and call Brother Liang and the others over! I'll get you some food tonight so you don't have to worry about the crowds tomorrow."

A few dozen dollars worth of food is a lot!

That’s right! It’s a few dozen yuan for labor, and the remaining 100 yuan is for materials, so of course I have to pay for it.

The wages are paid with food.

All of them were sweet potatoes, potatoes, and sorghum, and the quantity was quite large.

"Okay! I'll go right away." Master Gu left in a hurry.

After watching Master Gu leave, Zhou Yimin immediately put the furniture into his store backpack.

He went back to the house and sat there for more than half an hour before coming out again and taking out 5 sacks of sweet potatoes, 5 sacks of potatoes, and 2 bags of sorghum.

After a while, Master Gu came with four helpers.

"Master Gu, please keep this 100 yuan."

"Okay! Thank you, sir."

Master Gu didn't even count the money, but put it in his pocket with great trust. In fact, he had a lot of money, so he knew almost everything by just touching it, so there was no need to count it in front of Zhou Yimin.

Their focus was on the 12 bags of food.

"Each of you take a bag of sweet potatoes and a bag of potatoes back home, and then come to my house tomorrow to get 20 kilograms of sorghum." Master Gu said to Liang Kuan and others.

With these two bags of food, if you save some, you’ll have enough to eat until the end of the year.

Everyone also trusted Master Gu and helped lift two bags of sorghum, one bag of sweet potatoes, and one bag of potatoes onto the cart.

"Master, let me help you push."

Master Gu refused Liang Kuan: "You all take your things back first, don't worry about me. I have a cart, it's much easier than you."

The price of this grain is much higher than the market price, but much lower than the black market price. At least it is within the acceptable range of Master Gu and his team.
