Era: Start as a buyer

Chapter 171 Borrow only if you can afford it

Things at the grain station were going very smoothly, but superficial interests still played a role. That is to say, Luo Cheng doesn't want much rice bran, otherwise it would be difficult to get it during this period.

But at least this line has been established. From now on, Luo Cheng only needs to get a new variety of tea to discuss and learn from others every one or two months, and the friendship will naturally gradually deepen.

Moreover, the director of the grain station directly made a call to the poultry factory. Although they are also nervous now, the grain station, as a place that supplies feed, asked them to help supply the machinery factory with an additional ten chickens and ducks a month. That is still very difficult. Easy.

After coming out of the grain station, Luo Cheng and the others took a bus to a certain intersection on their way back and dispersed. Zhang Tao still had to go back to the factory to continue working. He did not dare to be like the people in the purchasing department. After leaving the factory, he would find reasons not to go back and continue working after the work was completed.

Zhou Lin went back with Luo Cheng. He wanted to go back with Luo Cheng to get a fish. To borrow money, the price of fish on the market is half of that of meat, about 30 cents. But again, it’s not the New Year or the holidays, and there is no fish for sale in the market.

Luo Cheng doesn't have a scale at home. The last time he sold eggs to his colleagues, he borrowed them from the canteen. This time we can only give a rough estimate of the weight and deduct some money from the loan.

"Luo Cheng, why is this side of your yard so smelly? It comes in waves. It was like this when I came here before."

"There are two houses opposite that have had their feces thrown at them. Now that the yards have been cleaned, the smell still needs to be dissipated. However, there should be a lot of it on the roofs of those two houses. If they are not cleaned up, it will still stink for at least a day to dry out. However, It's better for me when I'm on the opposite side, so the smell isn't too strong. But the residents in the row opposite me have a much stronger smell. If you don't believe me, just stand over and smell it."

"Who are you offending? Someone threw excrement at you, but someone who could do this is quite wicked. It's really disgusting."

"You offended me."

"This~~, what did you do?"

"Director Sun accidentally gave me a shit ticket last time. If you have any shit tickets, please give me some."

Hearing Luo Cheng's disguised admission that he did it, Zhou Lin didn't know what to say. He had always thought that Luo Cheng was a very generous and nice person. Throwing shit is a completely disgusting trick, but he seems to be quite at ease with it.

"You're not afraid of others finding out, Team Leader Luo, if you say they offended you, then there is a conflict. Even if they didn't see you do it, they would have guessed it was you and come to trouble you."

"It's interesting to let them guess, but there is no evidence for guessing. If you dare to talk nonsense without evidence, I will punish you even more severely. By the way, did you know that Wang De from the security department of our factory said that his uncle is ours?" The deputy director of the film.”

"Wang De? His uncle is indeed, but don't be fooled by that kid. That kid always uses his uncle's name to make friends with others. His uncle is too lazy to talk to that kid. Unless something happens to Wang De himself, others will His uncle will not come forward easily when it comes to people's affairs. But if he really wants to find something to do with Wang De and his uncle, he can help pull the strings, but he doesn't need to be too nice to Wang De."

Zhou Lin's words were very direct. His impression of Wang De was not very good. He always liked to brag, but he could not help others. The main reason is that the relationship is used up. Otherwise, if there are some minor issues, the nephew can just say hello to the uncle and it will be solved. Now his only value is that he can hold the line, so there is no need to give him too many benefits. When Luo Cheng heard what Zhou Lin said, he understood. Before, he had hoped that some small matters could be solved by just calling Wang De. This little thing is useless, and for big things we have to consider whether my uncle can handle it, so it doesn't mean much. It was enough to maintain the superficial relationship. Luo Cheng also hoped that if his neighbors "framed" him, he would ask Wang De to call the police to scare them.

Now, you still have to rely on your own brothers. If the person on the other side is not convinced, they will continue to throw shit. If it doesn't work, just put a sack on him and beat him up. Anyway, let’s make people sick and scared first. That is to say, we are nervous about eating now. If we catch mice, we will eat them as meat. Otherwise, we will get some dead mice and throw them at your door every day.

Some older people, who are still obsessed with belief, are afraid of these unlucky tricks.

Luo Cheng sent Zhou Lin away. Zhou Lin did not have a shit ticket, but he told Luo Cheng that Liu Liang had such a ticket. It was obtained accidentally, and even if it wasn't much more accidental, the person he was engaged in purchasing daily necessities could get it without such a ticket.

At almost five o'clock in the afternoon, Zhao Qian came back from outside with Luo Yan. Luo Cheng is killing rabbits and fish and will send them to Director Sun's house later. Luo Cheng told them that Section Chief Li from the factory might come later and asked him to pick two fish and two rabbits. In addition, he prepared a small bag of tea and remembered to give it to Section Chief Li.

There is no need to ask Section Chief Li for money. They will give him fifty yuan directly tomorrow, and he will still owe him forty yuan by then.

"Luo Cheng, why did you ask the section chief to borrow so much money? You don't have any money to use. I have dozens of them here."

"Just keep the little money you have yourself. Not only did I ask Section Chief Li to borrow money, but other people in the factory also borrowed a lot. The total amount is 150 yuan. Let me tell you, we will have bicycles soon. I’ll take you for a ride when the time comes.”

"Buy a bicycle~~."

Zhao Qian was a little confused when she heard Luo Cheng's words. She would have a bicycle so soon. In the past, there seemed to be only two bicycles in the town, one for the secretary and one for the mayor. Not even the deputy mayor. When this man sees a bicycle, no one would want to own one. But not to mention the price, it’s still not available.

But in Zhao Qian's opinion, Luo Cheng didn't need to borrow so much money at all. Last month's salary was given to Zhao Qian by Zhou Lin, and the money she saved now was sold to those selling eggs, rabbits, and lard. Together, I'm almost 80. I have rice and noodles at home, and I can't spend them all. Why bother to owe others or take favors?

In this day and age, many people are unwilling to owe others favors by borrowing money. I owe someone money. I always feel panicked and think about it even when I sleep.

In fact, Luo Cheng is the same. He doesn't want to owe anyone, but he has no pressure to repay the money. Borrowing money from others actually gives people an opportunity. If you want to borrow more money from someone Luo Cheng doesn't like, he won't take it. Let's put it this way, Chief Li and Director Sun, this fifty yuan is said to be a loan, and Luo Cheng will slowly pay it back with supplies. In the end, everyone will know who takes advantage of whom and who owes a favor to whom.

Luo Cheng told them not to worry about bicycle money, especially when Section Chief Li came and said that they didn't need to lend him money because they had money at home. That would make the relationship stalemate. The money owed was one hundred and fifty yuan, but today the fish and the rabbit were together, and it was one hundred and thirty yuan. In the next few months, it will be able to be offset against the debt.

　In fact, I want to ask for leave secretly. I went to a relative's house during the day today, but I was delayed due to work in the evening. I need to write 4000 words a day to not be absent from work. There are still 2 hours left, so I will try my best to update at 12 o'clock.
