Rebirth: the fiery age of Mori Gong's children

Chapter 414 Done
Sheng Xiyun didn't say what kind of unit they were in. The coal in the trailer was about [-] tons. The amount was not very large, and it was probably just for heating the unit.

Just like what Sheng Xiping and Hou Yashuang said before, coal, steel, and wood are all in short supply these days.

Unless you follow the planned targets, it will be difficult to get it out.

Not to mention spending more money, the key is that without acquaintances, it really can’t be done.

"I haven't gone to Pine Tree Town yet. I'm thinking of visiting my uncle and aunt first, and then I'll make a quick trip to Pine Tree Town later."

Sheng Xiyun was slightly startled, then smiled.

"Oh, ok, let's stay at home for a couple of days. Why don't you come all the way and have a few more days of kissing?"

Sheng Xiping could probably guess what this eldest brother meant, but he couldn't take the initiative to mention it without him speaking first.

So he warmly invited Sheng Xiyun to stay and play for a few more days.

"Hey, okay, thank you my brother." Sheng Xiyun didn't refuse, and nodded with a smile.

My relatives have come all the way from Yantai, so I must treat them well.

Zhang Shuzhen dismissed Sheng Xiping and hurried to the forest farm store to take a look. If there was meat, she would buy some meat and some canned food. She made six dishes for a meal at noon.

In the afternoon, Zhang Shuzhen chopped stuffing and dough and prepared to make dumplings.

Sheng Xiping did not go to the pine cone in the afternoon. Instead, he went to the river, found the fish basket he had hidden in advance, and caught a thin-scaled fish.

On the way home, I met Zhang Zhijun’s younger brother Zhang Zhiqiang. This boy was carrying two bunches of toads.

As soon as I saw Sheng Xiping, I had to give him a string.

There were less than 20 toads in the bunch, including a female and a male dog, all jumping happily.

Sheng Xiping just carried the fish and toad back home. In the evening, the Sheng family stewed fish, toad and potatoes, stir-fried vegetables and made dumplings.

Sheng Xiping invited Liu Changde and Zheng Xianyong over to drink with Sheng Xiyun.

Sheng Xiyun felt embarrassed when she saw how rich her uncle's house was.

"Oh, Auntie, look at you, we are all members of our own family, and you are making dumplings, including fish and meat. It's just in time for the Chinese New Year."

Although Sheng Xiyun works in Yantai and is from the city, life may not be as good as that of the Sheng family, so he said this when he saw the food on the table.

“It’s okay, just feel free to eat, his family’s Chinese New Year food is better than this.

Nephew, you're here at the wrong time. Xiping hasn't gone hunting in the mountains recently. Otherwise, I really want you to try the delicious food from the Northeast. "

Liu Changde was happy when he heard this. In his eyes, where is this?That is to say, I have been busy recently and no one has gone into the mountains to hunt. How about trying it in winter?You can eat whatever you want.

Liu Changde is actually a few years older than Sheng Xiyun, but Sheng Xiyun calls Sheng Liancheng uncle, and by the way, Liu Changde also calls him uncle, so Liu Changde calls him nephew.

In particular, Liu Changde was also a soldier. As soon as the two met, they felt very close and had a great conversation.

When she learned that Liu Changde took leave and did not return to the team, Sheng Xiyun also felt sorry for him.

If he had returned to the team at that time, he would have had a formal job, and he wouldn't have been stuck in this small ravine.

After so many years, Liu Changde didn't care much anymore, but said that this was good.

There is a table full of dishes and dumplings, how can we not have some wine?
Among the people at the table, Sheng Xiping was the youngest, so he picked up the wine bottle and filled it for everyone.

We all chatted while eating, and the more we talked, the closer we got, and the more we talked, the happier we were.

"Uncle, to tell you the truth, I really have something to ask you for help when I come here this time."

After a few glasses of wine, Sheng Xiyun also started chatting with Sheng Liancheng.

"Do you know why my employer arranged for me to come to Northeast China? The main reason is that I enjoy the treatment of disabled soldiers, and I don't have to pay for transportation no matter where I go."

"Arrange for me to come over. This is the best thing that can be done. If it can't be done, you can just have some food and drink, which won't cost that much.

Oh, to be honest, I was worried about going to Pine Tree Town. It was hard to buy coal. I was afraid that people would ignore me.

I was just wondering, my uncle has been in the Northeast for many years. Do you have any acquaintances here who can help me inquire about this matter? "

With the help of wine to cover his face, Sheng Xiyun finally revealed the purpose of coming to Sheng's house.

"Oh, you said it so suddenly, I really don't have a clue. I don't think we know anyone over there in Pine Tree Town, right?"

Sheng Liancheng frowned slightly when he heard this.

It's not that he doesn't want to help, but he has always been in this valley and has not had much contact with the outside world.

For a while, I really couldn't remember if there was anyone I knew in Pine Tree Town.

"Xiping, is the other side of Pine Tree Town under the jurisdiction of Sanchazi?" Zheng Xianyong next to him narrowed his eyes and pondered for a moment.

"Yes, it's under Sanchazi's control." Sheng Xiping nodded.

"That's right, why don't you go find Secretary Wang? Tanghe Forestry Bureau is located in Fusong, Jingyu, and Sanchazi. It seems not far from Songshu Town." Zheng Xianyong patted his thigh and said .

At this mention, Sheng Xiping also remembered it, it was true.

In fact, he just wanted to say that some of Zhou Qinglan's maternal relatives work in Sanchazi, so they might have something to do with it.

But when Zheng Xianyong mentioned Wang Jiachuan, Sheng Xiping remembered that Wang Jiachuan was over there.

Although the Tanghe Forestry Bureau is not as big as the Songjianghe Forestry Bureau, it is still the top leader, and maybe it can talk to the other side of Songshu Town.

"Uncle, who is Secretary Wang you are talking about? Are we familiar with him?" Sheng Xiyun was overjoyed when she heard this and quickly asked Sheng Liancheng.

"Oh, that was the secretary of Qianchuan Forestry Farm, who was transferred to Tanghe Forestry Bureau last summer.

Secretary Wang's relationship with our family is pretty good, but I don't know if he can talk to the other side of the Songshu Town Coal Mine? "

Sheng Liancheng was not too sure about this.

"Uncle, why don't you ask Xiping to accompany me?

You see, I can't come all the way here in vain. If I get this done, it will be easier for me to explain to my work unit later. "

Sheng Xiyun looked at Sheng Xiping, and then said to Sheng Liancheng.

“Brother, you’ve said it, what else can you do?

Let's do this. You can live at home with peace of mind. Tomorrow, I'll call the Tanghe Forestry Bureau and ask Uncle Wang's story first.

If Uncle Wang has a way, we will go there. If there is no way, let's not rush there blindly. We will find another way. "

Sheng Xiping thought for a moment and gave Sheng Xiyun this reply.

"Yes, yes, Xiping is thoughtful. Then I'll leave this matter to my brother. Come on, I'll give you a toast."

Sheng Xiyun was very happy when he heard this. He picked up the wine glass and paid homage to Sheng Xiping.

Sheng Xiping quickly picked up the wine glass, clinked it with his distant cousin, and drank half of the glass.

As for men, most of them start chatting after having a drink, and they start chatting all over the world.

You guys kept talking to each other, and the more we talked, the closer we got, and the closer we got, the more we drank, and in the end we drank too much.

The meal was quite late, and by the end everyone was walking a little wobbly.The three masters of the Sheng family drank a lot and slept on the south kang at night.

Around 08:30 the next morning, Sheng Xiping went to his work and borrowed a phone to call the Tanghe Forestry Bureau.

By coincidence, Wang Jiachuan had just gone to work and was surprised to receive a call from Sheng Xiping.

The two chatted for a while, and then Sheng Xiping inquired about the news about Songshu Coal Mine.

"Oh, you said Songshu Coal Mine, what did you think it was about.

I'll ask people in the bureau later to see who has contact there.Don't worry, I'll call you back soon. "

After Wang Jiachuan finished speaking, he hung up the phone and called back after a while.

"Xiping, bring your brother here. There is someone here. The brother-in-law of the logistics director of our bureau works at Songshu Coal Mine, and he is in charge of sales."

When Sheng Xiping heard this, he was very happy, "Hey, thank you, Uncle Wang. Then I will accompany my brother to your place."

"Thank you? It's just a small thing. Come and play for two days. Your aunt always talks to me about the people in Qianchuan Forest Farm and your mother.

Come back and give your parents a good baby for me. "Wang Jiachuan smiled on the other end of the phone and then hung up.

Sheng Xiyun was also very happy to learn that Wang Jiachuan had an acquaintance at Songshu Coal Mine.

It happened that someone from the forest farm went down to do something, so the two brothers Sheng Xiping took a ride and went to Songjiang River together.

Then I took a train at Songjiang River and went straight to Songshu Town. I went to Songshu Town to find a place to stay for one night. I bought some things the next day and went to Tanghe Forestry Bureau to visit Wang Jiachuan.

"Uncle Wang, long time no see. You look more energetic than when you were in Maekawa. You feel younger."

When Sheng Xiping met Wang Jiachuan, he didn't show much formality and said with a smile.

This is not a compliment. When Wang Jiachuan was appointed as the head of the Tanghe Forestry Bureau, he sat in the office all day. He no longer had to go to the frontline workers to be exposed to the wind and sun, and his face was gray all day long. Naturally, he looked younger and more energetic than before.

"You're such a naughty kid, you only know how to tease your uncle." Wang Jiachuan burst into laughter upon hearing this.

"Hey, I haven't seen you for a long time. Are your parents doing well?"

"It's okay. We have two little kids at home, and they are in a hurry every day. My dad and mom are following the kids all day long to clean up the mess. They are very energetic."

Sheng Xiping and Wang Jiachuan didn't look at each other at all and said with a smile.

"Oh, I really envy your dad. He got his grandson so early. Your Xinhua is already five years old, right? The two of us don't know when they will get married."

Wang Jiachuan sighed with a smile. One of his two sons has become a soldier and the other is in college. When they get married and have children, Sheng Xiping's sons may all go to school.

"Uncle, why are you worried about this?

Tianqing and Tiancheng are both promising, ambitious and promising. They will definitely get a good wife in the future. Then you can wait and have grandchildren. "

Sheng Xiping said and turned to look at Sheng Xiyun.

"Uncle, this is the eldest brother from my hometown I'm talking about. He also served as a soldier. Later, he was injured and changed his job.

Now I work in a company in Yantai, in charge of purchasing. "Just a few casual chats, but you still have to do serious business quickly.

Wang Jiachuan was also a soldier. Hearing that Sheng Xiyun had been a soldier before, he immediately felt cordial. "Comrade Sheng, it's a pleasure to meet you. Well, Xiping told me before, you don't have to worry about the other side of Songshu Coal Mine.

Our bureau also gets coal from there for heating in the winter. We have the connection, so this matter is easy to handle. "

As soon as she heard Wang Jiachuan's words, Sheng Xiyun felt at ease, "Thank you so much, Secretary Wang."

"What are you calling Secretary Wang? It sounds awkward. We have all been soldiers and we are all comrades in arms.

Don't follow Xiping and others, just call me Jiachuan. "

Wang Jiachuan was a soldier, he had a bold and informal temperament, and he didn't have the airs of a director. When talking about Sheng Xiyun, he had to talk about brothers.

"No, no, this generation can't be messed up. I'd better follow Xiping's call." When Sheng Xiyun heard this, how could this work?Isn't that a mess?

The three of them sat down to talk. Someone brought tea on the other end. Wang Jiachuan asked someone to find the logistics director of their bureau and asked Sheng Xiyun how much coal they planned to ask for.

"Xiao Zhao, I think this is it, you arrange the car and we go to the Songshu Coal Mine together.

It's almost noon. Let's invite their mine leaders and your brother-in-law to have a meal together.

At that time, everyone sat down, talked over drinks, and explained the matter clearly.How is it? "Wang Jiachuan suggested.

The logistics director's surname is Zhao. He is in his thirties and is a very shrewd person.

As soon as I heard Wang Jiachuan's words, I understood that the secretary had a close relationship with those two people. This was because he was afraid that the other side of Songshu Coal Mine would not pay attention to them and would take the initiative to support them.

"Okay, I think this arrangement is okay, then I'll arrange the car."

Director Zhao went out, and after a while the arrangements were made. The driver drove the jeep and drove the four Wangjiachuan people straight to Songshu Town.

When they arrived at the place, Wang Jiachuan and the others found a hotel to wait. Director Zhao went to the coal mine to find his brother-in-law, and through his brother-in-law he found the secretary and the mine director.

As soon as the other party heard that it was the secretary of the Tanghe Forestry Bureau who wanted to treat them to dinner, he dropped what he was doing and came to town together.

When everyone met in the hotel, they exchanged pleasantries. When everyone was seated and the food and drinks were served, after three glasses of wine, Wang Jiachuan mentioned the purpose of his trip.

"Oh, the matter of two or three thousand tons of coal even alerted Secretary Wang to personally come forward. We don't need anyone else to do this, just let you, Director Zhao, talk about it.

We don’t need to distinguish between planned and unplanned. The price will be the same as what was supplied to the bureau in previous years. Do you think that’s okay? "

Secretary Li from the mine laughed when he heard this. In his eyes, this bit of coal was really nothing.

"Look, Secretary Li is still happy. That's all. After a while, my eldest nephew will arrange for a car to come over to pull coal."

When Wang Jiachuan heard this, he was naturally very happy. The coal used by their bureau was within the planned quota, and the price was much lower.

"Come on, come on, let's all toast to Secretary Li. Thank you Secretary Li for giving me this face."

Wang Jiachuan hurriedly picked up the wine glass, and everyone also picked up the wine glass and paid tribute to Secretary Li.

Sheng Xiyun had been having problems for several days, but he didn't expect that they could be solved in just a few words.

At this time, Sheng Xiyun was also very happy. He quickly poured wine for everyone and gave everyone a toast.

After everyone talked and laughed, the matter was finalized. Songshu Coal Mine will grant Sheng Xiyun's unit one plus trailer of high-quality coal at the planned price.

The matter was settled so smoothly. Everyone had nothing to worry about and could eat and drink with peace of mind.

Halfway through the meal, Sheng Xiping found an excuse to go out and settle the bill.

After dinner and chatting, Wang Jiachuan and the others took the bus back to Tanghe Forestry Bureau.

Sheng Xiping accompanied Sheng Xiyun to Songshu Coal Mine and signed a contract with the mine.

With this contract, Sheng Xiyun can only make payments and arrange trucks to transport coal when he returns.

"Brother, thanks to your help this time, the coal purchase was so smooth.

You see, you paid the bill for me during lunch, so you have to accept the money. "

After finishing the work at the mine, the two returned to town. Sheng Xiyun took out the money and had to give it to Sheng Xiping.

"Brother, you are too unreasonable. How much money can you have for a meal? You still have to give it to me?

As long as things get done, we brothers will keep seeing each other from now on. "

A meal doesn't cost much these days. Even including wine, it only costs about twenty yuan. Does Sheng Xiping still care about this?Of course it cannot be accepted.

The two were in a stalemate for a while, and finally Sheng Xiyun sighed and took the money back.

"Brother, as for me, I have been out for a few days. Now that I have obtained this contract, I want to go back as soon as possible and finish this matter first.

I won’t go back to the forest farm with you. I’ll go to the station later and ask. If there’s a train to Tonghua, I’ll take the train back. "

"Brother, why are you in such a hurry? We've only been here two days and we haven't had enough intimacy yet. It won't be too late to go back if we stay for a few more days." Naturally, Sheng Xiping wanted to try to persuade him to stay.

"No, no, let's take care of the government affairs first. I'll come to transport coal next time, and then I'll go home and stay for a few more days.

By the way, there is one more thing that I have to discuss with you. You can help me come up with an idea and see if it works. "

Sheng Xiyun suddenly remembered something and said hurriedly.

“I was thinking that it would not be cost-effective to go all the way here to haul coal, whether it is an empty truck or a truck arranged from here.

Yantai produces apples, as you know, I thought, how about I load a truck with apples and transport them over?Do you think it can be sold? "

Sheng Xiyun is a very smart person. Otherwise, why would he be the director of the purchasing department if he is a disabled person?

"I just thought of this at the wine table, but I didn't mention it. I thought I had to discuss it with you first.

If you say yes, it will be shipped when the time comes, and you can contact me to sell it. The money earned will be divided between the two of us. How about that? "

Sheng Xiyun was a very disciplined person. Since he came to the Sheng family from the beginning, he had to plan everything with Sheng Xiping from the beginning to the end.

There was absolutely no reason to leave Sheng Xiping aside and discuss with Wang Jiachuan and the others.

So when we were drinking just now, Sheng Xiyun didn't mention anything and only said it now.

Sheng Xiping was happy when he heard this, "The apples in Yantai are pretty good, but if you bring a Yijia trailer here, I'm really not sure if I can help you sell them all."

Like this, brother, don't worry, I'll check with you later and ask. "

Sheng Xiping couldn't agree to this matter rashly. He had to find a buyer first and set a rough amount before letting Sheng Xiyun deliver the goods.

Otherwise, if you bring a cart full of apples, you won’t be able to sell them. It’s so cold in the Northeast, so they won’t freeze to death, right?Even if it is very cheap to buy it from Yantai, it is not expensive for all ages.

"Sure, then please leave it to my brother. You can give me a letter later and I will send more and leave some for our family."

Sheng Xiyun had already made a plan in his mind. No matter whether it worked or not, when he came, he would have to transport at least dozens of baskets of apples.

The Sheng family, as well as Secretary Wang and Secretary Li whom I met today, all sent some to others.

Some relationships are maintained frequently, and they may be useful at some point.

As the two of them talked, they came to the train station and found out that there were buses to Tonghua and back to Songjianghe in the afternoon.

Sheng Xiyun rushed to buy a ticket, and the two brothers waited in the waiting room for a while. Sheng Xiyun took the car to leave first, and Sheng Xiping also took the car back to Songjianghe.

It was already dark when we arrived at Songjiang River. Sheng Xiping bought some things and went to Zhou's house.

Wang Chunxiu works the night shift, and Zhou Mingyuan is the only one at home. He got off work late today and is cooking.

Seeing his uncle coming, Zhou Mingyuan was surprised and happy, and quickly thought about adding two more dishes.

By chance, someone was dining with Zhou Mingyuan, and Weng and his son-in-law drank some wine and chatted while eating.

Zhou Mingyuan had to ask Sheng Xiping what he was doing here. Sheng Xiping told the truth and mentioned that Sheng Xiyun was going to pull a cart of apples here.

Zhou Mingyuan nodded, "Okay, I'll help you with this later.

The benefits our bureau will provide to employees this year have not been finalized yet. I will discuss it with Lao Zhao and the others later to see if it is not a big deal to add one item to it. "

The Forestry Bureau is a state-owned enterprise with good welfare benefits. Every year, it gives some annual benefits to its employees, such as rice, noodles, oil, peanuts, etc.

Many times, the Forestry Bureau uses wood and exchanges it from elsewhere.

If the quantity is large, even the forest farm employees will be given out together. If the quantity is small, it will be given out to the bureau employees, which is more random.

Apples are not grown locally, and they are rarely sold in stores, so they are often hard to get.

It would be nice to give some apples to employees during the Chinese New Year, paired with other things, and they would all have a prosperous New Year.

There are more than 1 employees in the Songjianghe Forestry Bureau. Even if each person is given ten pounds of apples, this is still a large amount.

With the words of father-in-law, Sheng Xiping felt confident.

"Dad, what do you want me to say? Thank you, Dad." Sheng Xiping quickly poured wine for his father-in-law, and the two of them took another sip.

"Looking back, I'll ask your mother to ask the supply and marketing cooperative in town and the supply and marketing cooperative in Donggang. Maybe we can get some.

The county's supply and marketing system, I'll check with you later. Your cousin's visit won't be worth it if the transportation is short. Since we agreed to help him, let's do it beautifully. "

Zhou Mingyuan is always proud of his son-in-law. His son-in-law's affairs are his business, and he must help him deal with them.

"This is our own family's business, why should we say thank you or not? We are happy to see you doing well, aren't we?"

Zhou Mingyuan laughed and clinked his wine glasses with his uncle, and the two of them drank and chatted until very late.

All the things that needed to be done were done, and Sheng Xiping could no longer delay. On the morning of NO. 20, he returned to Qianchuan Forest Farm by car.

At this time, the forest farm had already begun to prepare for winter production. As a production scheduler, Sheng Xiping had to take a commuter bus and go up the mountain to arrange work every day.

A few days later, Zhou Mingyuan sent a letter saying that Apple's affairs had been arranged.

The bureau, together with various forest farms, needs almost [-] jins, and the county supply and marketing cooperative and some units together have a minimum of [-] jins.

Hearing that, some units in the county wanted to provide benefits, and when they learned that Yantai Apple was available, they planned to order some.

When Sheng Xiping heard this, he quickly sent a telegram to Yantai and asked Sheng Xiyun to prepare the goods according to this quantity.

After receiving the telegram, Sheng Xiyun quickly arranged for people to go to various villages and towns below to collect apples. They all wanted first-class apples, which were almost useless.
