I Became the Favorite of Big Bosses

 Chapter 372 He is a fool if he doesn’t make money when he has money

 Early the next morning, the two of them packed up and went out.

Wei Lan originally thought that the two of them would walk together, but Gu Chao shook his head and decided to go to the brigade leader's house to borrow a bicycle.

“You go to the town a lot, so it’s not okay to borrow one from the brigade captain’s house. Now that we have money, why don’t we buy one ourselves?”

 It's one thing if others don't say it, but it's one thing if you realize it yourself.

Wei Lan started counting on her fingers. The bicycle cost about one hundred and seventy yuan, and the money Gu Chao gave her was enough.

 But buying a bicycle requires an industrial coupon.

 Wei Lan has a lot of food stamps, candy stamps, snack stamps, etc., but not industrial stamps.

It's only seven or eight miles from home to the town. When Gu Chao usually goes to the town, he gets up earlier and walks faster, and he can get there in an hour.

 It was only because he was afraid that Wei Lan couldn't bear the journey that Gu Chao went to pick up the bicycle from the brigade leader's house.

Now my money is not as tight as before. It is okay to buy a bicycle. It is also convenient to go out later or take Wei Lan out to play and go around.

Gu Chao did not hesitate, raised his sword eyebrows slightly, and said with a smile: "Okay, I will listen to you. When I get to the town soon, I will ask Shantao if there are any industrial papers."

 If there are any, exchange them for two.

 One is used to buy a sewing machine and one is used to buy a bicycle.

While talking, the two of them arrived at the door of the captain's house.

It was only after six o'clock, and it was dawn. Gu Sande took the ox and was putting a cart on the ox.

Gu Chao called out in a deep voice: "Captain."

"Hey!" Gu Sande looked up from the cow's neck and was stunned when he saw Gu Chao and Wei Lan, who was covered like a rice dumpling. "What are you doing? Go to the town?"

After Gu Sande asked the question, without waiting for the two to answer, he patted the cow and said, "Just in time, I'm going to the commune."

 Gu Chao wanted to borrow a bicycle, but Wei Lan quickly reached out to him and said, "Then, please ask the captain to give us a ride!"

 The snow on the road has been trampled into mud. Bicycles are not as stable as bullock carts, and they may fall down.

Gu Sande nodded in agreement, this was also his original plan.

Gu Chao helped us harness the ox cart.

 After helping Wei Lan sit firmly, she and Gu Sande got on the bullock cart.

Gu Sande flicked his whip, and the old cow walked forward slowly with hoofs.

 The wind was not that strong in the morning, but the temperature was very low. Gu Chao sat facing the back of the car, with the bamboo basket placed across the base, completely covering Wei Lan's small body.

Wei Lan leaned beside Gu Chao, and his cold little hand was held by Gu Chao calmly.

Gu first covered Wei Lan's hand for a while, but when it didn't feel warm again, he simply lifted the hem of his clothes and put Wei Lan's hand close to his abdomen.

Wei Lan didn't feel very cold at first, but when her hands touched Gu Chao's warm skin, she realized that her hands were very cold.

"What should I do if I catch a cold?" Wei Lan was startled and hurriedly withdrew her hand, but Gu Chao held her hand tightly, lowered his head and asked in a low voice: "Is it still cold?"

Wei Lan shook his head.

Just a moment ago, her hands were almost warm. She was afraid that she would catch a cold if she pulled Gu Chaozhen any more, so she could only stay stiff and press her hands tightly against his abdomen. His abdominal muscles were warm and slightly hard. Wei Lan moved his fingers and stroked them twice, but felt a little slippery again.

Gu Chao's breath sank, his brows furrowed slightly in disapproval, and he held Wei Lan's hand harder: "Nanny, don't make trouble."

Wei Lan pursed her lips, fearing that Gu Sande would find out, so she stopped moving.

 “What are you doing in town so early?”

“I’m going to the town to send a letter, and I’m going to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some daily necessities.” Wei Lan replied quickly, then asked after a while: “What is the captain doing in the commune so early?”

“Isn’t it the sunflower seed project I mentioned earlier? The seeds have arrived, and they were told to go to the commune to haul them!” Gu Sande chuckled, with an easy-going look on his face, without the usual rigorous atmosphere of veteran cadres.

 The three of them chatted along the road, time passed quickly, and they soon arrived at the commune.

Before parting, Gu Sande shouted: "When will Brother Chao come back? I'll wait for you here for a while?"

It is estimated that the seeds of sunflower seeds should not be too old. On the way to the road, Gu Sande was afraid that he would not be able to take care of himself, and turned back to the seeds.

If you can match up with Gu Chao in time, you can ask Gu Chao to help you when the time comes.

 Gu Chaozi knew it in his heart, and he also considered that the goods from the post office were almost due to arrive. If he could follow the ox cart back, it would save him a few trips back and forth.

Wei Lan took a look at the time and saw that it was only half past seven. Gu Chao said calmly, "We should be back at ten."

It was almost time before the commune had finished its meeting before distributing seeds. Gu Sande thought about it and made an agreement with Gu Chao that whoever finished the work first would wait for a while.

 When I arrived in town, the genius was just beginning to shine.

 Wei Lan and Gu Chao looked at each other and instantly reached a consensus.

The two of them walked to Badaoxiang. Unlike the deserted streets outside, the black market in Badaoxiang was bustling with activity, and there was no sign of the usual vigilance and caution.

Shantao was chatting with some gangsters when he caught sight of two familiar figures from the corner of his eye. He immediately put aside his leisure and ran over, "Oh, Brother Gu!"

Shantao stood in front of the two of them, stretched his neck and glanced at Wei Lan, who was covered tightly, and immediately smiled and said: "Sister-in-law, long time no see!"

Wei Lan pulled down the scarf and said in surprise: "I covered it so tightly, how did you recognize me?"

Shantao smiled and was about to speak when Gu Chao suddenly turned around and pulled up the scarf around Wei Lan's neck, covering half of his face with only a pair of dark eyes exposed.

 Gu Chao looked at Shan Yao: "What's going on recently?"

"I've always wanted to tell you about this. A few days ago, the town loudspeaker shouted that there was some kind of economic conference held in the capital. I'm not educated and don't understand. Anyway, I guess it means you can make a living, right?" Touched the head that exploded into a thorny ball

Yam Yao hasn’t had her hair cut since the beginning of winter. Now her hair is longer, and the gaps of different lengths before are no longer visible. It just looks more pleasing to the eye.

Shantao looked at Gu Chao and made a sad face for a moment: "I haven't seen you coming here for a while. Is it because the weather is cold and I can't make the milk roll before?"

　　At first, Shan Yao thought the goat milk rolls were expensive. After selling them twice, repeat customers kept asking for them, and they were all sold out without him even having to go out and shout secretly.

As soon as the sweet potato tasted its sweetness, Gu Chao suddenly stopped sending it.

 “Well, I can’t do it.” Gu Chao nodded.

Suddenly, there was a pain in his lower back. Gu Zhao's strong eyebrows twisted into caterpillars for a moment, and he gasped with a "hiss" sound.

 It is a fool to not make money even if you have money!

Wei Lan withdrew his hand from his waist, pulled off his scarf, stuck his head out and said to Shantao: "We can do it, but it's cold and the roads are hard to walk. We have to waste a lot of time when we get out of the village. It's not worth it." .”
