Rebirth: the fiery age of Mori Gong's children

Chapter 409 Business delivered to your door
After dinner, Zhou Qingyue took Sheng Xiping to the Zhanqian Hotel by bicycle.

When he went to the hotel and inquired, it turned out that two southerners had just moved in yesterday. So Sheng Xiping followed the staff's instructions and went to the room to find Hou Yashuang.

"Brother Hou, when did you come? Why didn't you send me a letter or telegram in advance?"

Seeing Hou Yashuang, Sheng Xiping didn't bother to look at who else was in the room and said directly.

"Brother Sheng, I finally found you.

I called you to go to our forest farm, but your family told me that you came to Songjianghe and thought you would miss it this time.

Sit down quickly, I brought some things from home for my brother. Hou Yashuang said as he took something out of a package on the bedside.

After all, Sheng Xiping was a person who had been reborn once and had some experience. When he saw the things Hou Yashuang took out, he was really surprised.

Jinhua ham, Hangzhou silk quilts, West Lake Longjing tea, and several boxes of snacks should also be relatively famous.

All of this adds up to a lot of money.

"Brother, what are you doing? You can just come here. How much trouble do you have to bring these things all the way?"

Sheng Xiping didn't wait for Hou Yashuang to speak and spoke first.

"Brother Sheng, I came here specifically to thank you, and I brought some local specialties from our place.

These are not worth much, they are just a piece of my heart. Don’t don’t want them.

According to you Northeasterners, if you don't accept it, you are looking down on your brother. "

Hou Yashuang took out all the things, placed them on the bed, pointed at them and smiled.

"If it weren't for my brother's help, I wouldn't be able to become the director of the purchasing department. My salary and benefits are much higher than before."

Hou Yashuang grabbed Sheng Xiping's hand and said eagerly.

"I have to thank my brother very much. Without my brother, how could I be where I am today?"

Hou Yashuang sent a telegram to Sheng Xiping about this matter before.

"Brother, you're too polite. Our friendship really doesn't need to be so open-minded."

Last time, it was a win-win situation. Sheng Xiping earned more than 1 yuan from it. It was only seventy-nine years ago. More than [-] yuan was not a small amount of money.

"No, this is my intention, you must accept it." Hou Yashuang grabbed Sheng Xiping's hand and said seriously.

They were so hospitable, what could Sheng Xiping do?

"Brother, tell me, is there anything else you need to do this time?"

Courtesy to people, there must be something to ask for.

Hou Yashuang came here with so many things. He must not only be here to thank you, but also to have something to do.

They were all acquaintances, so there was no need to beat around the bush, so Sheng Xiping asked directly.

"Oh, brother, what do you want me to say? I really have something to ask of you."

Hou Yashuang sighed and glanced aside. Only then did Sheng Xiping notice that there was a young man in the room who looked to be about seventeen or eighteen years old.

"This is my eldest son, Hou Mingliang. Ah Liang, come here, I've met your uncle." Hou Yashuang waved to the young man and asked him to come over.

Hou Mingliang came forward and bowed respectfully to Sheng Xi, "Hello, uncle."

"Oh, is this my eldest nephew? He's really good-looking. Look at this bushy eyebrows and big eyes. He's such a good kid. How old is he this year?"

Sheng Xiping looked the young man up and down. Not to mention, the young man from the Hou family was really good-looking and not short, so he was quite rare.

"I'm eighteen, I'm not good at studying. I haven't studied since I finished junior high school. It's hard to find jobs, so I'm just hanging around." Hou Yashuang said with a sigh.

"That's what happened. We have a pretty big lumber company there. It's a subsidiary of the Provincial Supply and Marketing Cooperative, and it has one to two hundred employees.

The head of the lumber company came to me a while ago and told me that if I could help him get wood, he would find a way to recruit my son to work in the lumber company.

Brother, I really have no choice, so I brought my baby to you. "

They were all acquaintances, and Hou Yashuang knew Sheng Xiping's temper and his tendency to be direct, so he didn't hide it and spoke straight to the point.

This time, Sheng Xiping understood what was going on.

Hou Yashuang must have helped their furniture factory buy back the wood, and others found out.

People from the lumber company also wanted to open up purchase channels in the Northeast, so they approached Hou Yashuang and asked Hou Yashuang to help him get wood on the pretext of arranging his son's work.

"Brother, if this matter is done around New Year's Day, you don't have to come in person, I will do it for you.

At that time, all the forest farms had wood. Needless to say, I could draw out ten or twenty wagons for you.

But at this time, most of the wood has been sold, so it's not easy to handle. "

Sheng Xiping sighed. If he had to rush it at this time, Maekuan Forest Farm might not be able to raise much.

"Brother Sheng, I also know that this matter is embarrassing for you.

Oops, let's not talk about this for now. If it really doesn't work, then we can just wait for the next few months and wait until New Year's Day.

Anyway, I just thought I came to the Northeast to visit relatives and meet my brother. Is that okay? "Hou Yashuang was mentally prepared before coming.

There are so many old timber customers who may not be able to get anything done even if they live in the Northeast for several months.

At least he didn't leave last time, so that's good.

Whether it succeeds this time or not, we just have to tell Sheng Xiping in advance to decide. At worst, our son's work will be arranged in a few months.

Sheng Xiping's nature is to accept soft things rather than hard things. When Hou Yashuang said this, he felt unhappy.

Besides, they brought so many things when they came, and this has to do with the children's work.

The child calls him uncle. As an uncle, he can't show off at all.

"Brother, that's it. As for you, don't be in a hurry to go back and stay here for a few more days.

I happen to be living with my wife at my parents' house recently. I'm going to run this for you in the next two days. It's hard to say whether it will be possible or not. I'll try my best. "

Sheng Xiping thought about it and decided that he would have to contact Zhao Guangning to see if he could get some out of the orders from various places.

"Oh, thank you, brother, thank you so much." When Hou Yashuang heard this, he was so excited that he quickly thanked him. "Son, why don't you thank Uncle Sheng quickly?"

Hou Mingliang is young, has a tender face, and can't wipe it away. He has to bow when he comes forward.

Sheng Xiping was so frightened that he quickly helped him and said, "Don't, it's not the New Year or the festival. If you do this, I have to give you a red envelope." Sheng Xiping laughed.

"Brother, let's start the ugly talk. I will try my best to handle this matter. If it works, everyone will be happy. If it doesn't work, don't blame me, you two."

"Hey, hey, brother, all you have to do is be willing to help. We'll see if it works or not." Hou Yashuang nodded in agreement.

Sheng Xiping chatted with Hou Yashuang and his son for a while, but it was getting late, so he said goodbye and left.

Hou Yashuang quickly loaded up the things he had brought and asked Sheng Xiping to take them away.Sheng Xiping refused, and finally had to take the things.

After coming out of the hotel in front of the station, Zhou Qingyue took Sheng Xiping with him on his bicycle, and the two of them returned to Zhou's house.

"Xiping, how are you? Have you found anyone?" When they got home, the two children were already asleep, so Zhou Mingyuan asked softly.

"I found someone. It's a friend I met in Shanghai. By the way, this is their souvenir he brought. It's just right. Let's leave it to my parents."

Sheng Xiping smoothly handed everything Hou Yashuang gave to Wang Chunxiu.

"Oh, is that okay? They gave it to you, what are you doing for us?" How can Wang Chunxiu want something from his uncle?Busy waving hands.

"Mom, there are two satin quilts here. These are not the kind of synthetic fiber ones we buy. They are hand-embroidered silk quilts, which are exquisite.

It seems that a quilt is worth a lot of money, so I can just save it for my eldest brother’s wedding quilt. "Sheng Xiping said as he took out something.

Coincidentally, the two quilts are made of bright red satin, one is embroidered with dragons and phoenixes, and the other is embroidered with rich peonies. They are perfect for wedding quilts.

"This is Jinhua ham. It's a good thing. I can keep it for my dad to treat guests to dinner or give it away. I can definitely get it.

And this West Lake Longjing, Dad, take it to Secretary Zhao and Director Yang tomorrow, so that everyone can try it. "

On the way back, Sheng Xiping thought about how to arrange these things.

The Sheng family is in a forestry farm. To put it bluntly, they are surrounded by rough guys, and no one recognizes the good stuff.

The situation in the bureau is also different. If Zhou Mingyuan is left with these gadgets, they will all come in handy.

"Oh, these things are worth a lot of money. What kind of friend are you? Bringing you so many things?"

Wang Chunxiu is also the director of the hospital after all, and has some knowledge. As soon as he sees these things, he knows that they must be worth a lot of money.

"Don't leave it to us, you'd better take it back. Your Xi'an is not young anymore, so keep the quilt for him to get a wife."

These are all valuable things. How can Wang Chunxiu keep his uncle's things?
"Mom, my second oldest is only a sophomore in college, and there are still two and a half years until graduation. Why is he in such a hurry to get a wife?
When he gets married, I'll just give him a thumbs up.

Didn’t eldest brother say that he would come back and get married soon?It’s just right to leave it to my eldest brother.

Just listen to me and keep these at home. I can take those boxes of snacks back and share them with my family to taste. "

Sheng Xiping had already thought about it, so how could he regret it?
In this way, at Sheng Xiping's insistence, all those things were left to the Zhou family, leaving only a few boxes of snacks for the family to eat.

It's getting late, so everyone has to take a rest after cleaning up.Zhou Mingyuan quietly dragged Sheng Xiping into the outhouse and asked him in a low voice.

"Xiping, tell me, does your friend want you to help dump wood again?"

My father-in-law was worried about my uncle, so he called out to ask for details.

"Well, when they came back this time, they mainly wanted to get some wood back." Sheng Xiping didn't hide it and nodded directly to admit it.

"Is this person reliable? He can't make any mistakes, right?"

In fact, in addition to supplying planned production, the Forestry Bureau also has a lot of unplanned timber left over every year. This is tacitly acknowledged.

The price of non-unified materials is several times higher than that of unified materials. The bureau also wants to sell more, but it is difficult to publicize it.

Therefore, those who handle it are very cautious and must choose reliable partners to avoid contact with other people easily.Those old customers who come directly from other places and want to buy wood can't get wood even if they live for a year without the means, let alone a few months.

"The cooperation last time was okay. It was all done according to our requirements."

Sheng Xiping and Hou Yashuang met in the same hotel in Shanghai and did not have a deep friendship.

But it can be seen from the last time he did things that this person is still good and quite reliable.

"Well, that's fine. You go to Guang Ning first. He will take care of this matter, and he will find a way to help you.

Recently, various forest farms have been closed down. If you squeeze in orders from other places, you can squeeze out what you want. "

Zhou Mingyuan nodded. As long as the partner is reliable, this matter is not difficult.

"If Guangning can't handle it, just tell me and I'll find a way for you."

As the deputy director and director of the Planning and Design Department, Zhou Mingyuan still has some skills. He doesn't care about other people's affairs, but he must help his own son-in-law's affairs.

"Hey, thank you dad, I feel relieved now." Sheng Xiping became happy.

"Get up early tomorrow morning and take the ham and tea to Guang Ning. He and his wife live in the corner building.

When you're looking for someone to do something, it's not a good idea to go empty-handed. We don't have these things here, so you can just bring them over. "

Zhou Mingyuan thought very carefully about his aunt.

"Dad, we agreed to leave it to the family." Sheng Xiping was stunned, isn't this bad?

"As long as you have those two quilts at home, leave the rest as a favor.

Didn’t I just say everything?Those are rare things, we don’t have them here.

Guang Ning’s family has no shortage of everything. If you bring some canned snacks and the like, they won’t care about you. It’s not as good as this. Zhou Mingyuan shook his head, smiled, and explained to Sheng Xiping.

Well, now that my father-in-law has spoken, Sheng Xiping can't be stubborn anymore.

"Okay, then when I have the opportunity in the future, I will bring back some for my family."

Zhou Mingyuan smiled and patted Sheng Xiping on the shoulder. After they finished chatting, they went back to their houses to rest.

After breakfast the next day, Sheng Xiping brought ham, tea, and two boxes of snacks, then borrowed Zhou Qingyue's bicycle and rode to the corner building to find Zhao Guangning.

Zhao Guangning had just finished eating and was about to go to work. When he saw Sheng Xiping coming, he was quite surprised.

"Hey, Xiping, you are a rare guest. Are you accompanying your wife back to your parents' home?"

Zhao Guangning heard Zhou Mingyuan mention that his daughter-in-law was coming back with his grandson in the past few days, so he asked Sheng Xiping when he saw her.

"Quick, come inside and sit down. Wife, Xiping is here. Hurry up and boil some water to make a pot of tea."

Zhao Guangning greeted his wife and let Sheng Xiping into the house.

Zhao Guangning lives in a residential building newly built by the Forestry Bureau in the past two years. It may be called a building, but in fact it is an old earth building where you can burn fires to keep warm.

The house is not big, about forty to fifty square meters, and the room is not too spacious. There are two chairs and a coffee table in the corridor, which is considered a living room.

"Sister-in-law, please stop working. I'm just here to sit and I'll be leaving soon."

Sheng Xiping casually put the things he brought on the coffee table, and then stopped Zhao Guangning's wife, who was about to boil water with a big belly.

"Hey, you can come as soon as you come. Why are you bringing something with you?" Zhao Guangning frowned when he saw Sheng Xi laying things flatly.

"You're still such a heretic when you come to your brother's house and don't treat me as one of your own."

"Brother, sister-in-law, this is something a friend of mine brought from the south, not from here.

Just in time, I brought it here for my brother, sister-in-law, and me, Uncle Zhao, to try. "Sheng Xiping laughed when he heard it and explained casually.

Zhao Guangning said nothing more and just asked Sheng Xiping to sit down.

Just at this moment, the eldest son of Zhao Guangning's family called his mother in the house, and Zhao Guangning's wife went into the house to take care of the child.

Sheng Xiping and Zhao Guangning were sitting in the small living room talking.

"Brother, why are you here this morning?" Zhao Guangning glanced at Sheng Xiping and asked with a smile.

"I really have something wrong, and I want to ask my brother for help."

Northeastern people are straightforward and don't mince words when doing anything. Sheng Xiping and Zhao Guangning were so familiar with each other that there was no need to hide it, so they nodded directly.

"The southerner who came back to dump wood came over again and said he wanted to buy some wood for some lumber company, and they promised to recruit workers for his son.

Brother, do you think we can handle this? "Sheng Xiping told Zhao Guangning the truth and didn't hide anything.

Zhao Guangning hesitated for a moment, and then asked, "How much can he want?"

"Why can't there be more than last time? Coming all the way here is related to his son's work, so I don't think it would be possible without him."

Sheng Xiping didn't ask Hou Yaping how much he wanted yesterday. The thing is, Sheng Xiping will use as much strength as he can. No matter how much it is, Hou Yashuang has to accept Sheng Xiping's affection.

Of course, since Sheng Xiping said he was going to do it, he wouldn't just do it in a non-committal manner.

Whose hands can't benefit from this thing? It's too little to even bother with.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Guangning nodded, "Okay, this can be done.

I'll go back to the bureau, do some statistics, squeeze in the lists from other units, and I can squeeze out ten or twenty cars for you.

It’s still the old method, first pay [-]% of the payment to the designated account, load the car when the money comes, pay the remaining [-]% ​​in cash, and the car will be shipped once the money is counted. "

Last time Zhao Guangning helped Sheng Xiping get some wood and earned more than 1 yuan from it. Who wouldn't be happy to have such a good deal come to him?
Of course, Zhao Guangning couldn't say that, he had to say that he was trying to squeeze in from somewhere else.

Of course Sheng Xiping understood that, he didn't care about that, as long as he could get wood.

"Come on, I feel relieved because of my brother's words. Then I will go back and wait for news about my brother. One day when my brother is free, let's have a drink."

Sheng Xiping glanced at the clock on the wall. It was almost eight o'clock. Zhao Guangning probably had to go to work, so he didn't stay long and stood up to leave.

"Why are you in a hurry? Coming to the house is just like getting a fire, sit down for a while." Seeing that Sheng Xiping was leaving, Zhao Guangning hurriedly offered words to persuade him to stay.

"No, brother, I plan to take my wife and children out for a walk today. The weather is nice, so I just happen to take them to play together.

That's it, brother, you should be busy with your business, and we'll get together when we have time. "

Sheng Xiping waved his hand and walked out of Zhao's house. Zhao Guangning followed him to the door, said a few more words to Sheng Xiping, and watched Sheng Xiping go downstairs before turning back to the house.

"Daughter-in-law, you should put away the things Xiping brought here first, don't let our boss get into trouble.

I saw that everything was not cheap. This seemed to be ham, which was quite expensive. I will take it to my dad later. "

Zhao Guangning rummaged through the things Sheng Xiping had brought and casually gave his wife a few words. Seeing that it was getting late, he quickly changed his clothes and went downstairs to go to work.

When Sheng Xiping returned to Zhou's house, both Zhou Mingyuan and Wang Chunxiu went to work, and Zhou Qinglan was the only one coaxing the two little ones at home.

"Daughter-in-law, where should we take our children for a stroll today? Or go to the county? At this point, I don't know if there are any cars."

Once you go out, you can't just stay at Zhou's house all day, taking the children out for a walk or something.

"Don't go today, I will take out and wash all the quilts at home later.

My mother is busy and has no time. The weather is nice, so I can do it at night after washing it. I will do it tomorrow. "

Zhou Qinglan used to live in Songjianghe. Is there anything interesting around here?Besides, it was a rare trip back and she had to help with some work at home.

Wang Chunxiu is busy, and Zhou Mingyuan and Zhou Qingyue are not the ones to work. The daughter feels sorry for her mother, so she has to share more for her mother.

"Okay, then Qingyue and I will take Xinhua and the others out for a walk. This will save them from leaving the house and causing trouble for you."

Sheng Xiping nodded and went into the house to take out some skins, medicinal materials and other things he had brought.

I plan to go to the buying station to sell with Zhou Qingyue, and then go shopping to buy some delicious food for Sheng Xinhua and the others.

In this way, Zhou Qinglan was unpacking and washing the bedding at home. Sheng Xiping and Zhou Qingyue took a baby each and first went to the purchasing station to sell things, and then went to the store to buy some food.

Sheng Xiping also bought a set of clothes and a pair of sneakers for Zhou Qingyue, keeping them for him to wear when he goes out to study.

In addition to these, Sheng Xiping also went to buy some meat, cooked food, vegetables and so on. He went home at noon and led Zhou Qingyue to cook without Zhou Qinglan having to do anything.

In the afternoon, the elder and the younger went to the nursery and played wildly for a while.

Zhou Qinglan spent three days taking apart, washing and drying all the bedding and cotton-padded clothes on his parents' side, and then made the bedding.

Sheng Xiping took advantage of the past few days to contact Zhao Guangning and roughly decided to get Hou Yashuang a piece of wood for a sixteen or seventeen-section carriage.

After Hou Yashuang found out, he was so happy that he didn't know what to do.

"Brother, please tell me how to thank you. Oh, you have helped me a lot. Ah Liang, please thank your uncle quickly."

On the other side, Hou Mingliang also quickly came forward to express his gratitude to Sheng Xiping.

"Brother, what do we need to thank for our relationship? My children call me uncle. I am an uncle who has no other abilities, so I can only help here." Sheng Xiping waved his hand.

"Brother, I have a suggestion about this, please listen to it, right?"

Sheng Xiping glanced at Hou Mingliang next to him, thought for a moment, and smiled.

"Stop calling me back, just ask Mingliang to take the car back.

One is to tell the other party that the payment must be made to their account according to the requirements above.

The most important thing is to let the other end arrange our bright work first. "

After all, Sheng Xiping has lived two lifetimes and has never experienced anything.

I was afraid that the lumber company was trying to trick Hou Yashuang into buying wood for them with empty talk, and then it would be a lie if the wood was actually bought back.

That's why Sheng Xiping said that Hou Mingliang should go back and go through all the recruitment procedures. After all the procedures are completed, the company will arrange the delivery.

Lest the lumber company's unloading mill kills the donkey, it will not be recognized when the time comes.
