Hello 1983

  Chapter 480 Iron Bull's Heart

  The family members were busy with their work, and when they suddenly saw Chen Dongfang, they couldn't help being taken aback, and the fourth and fifth children didn't even look at him well.

   Grandfather Liu Shikui also stared, thinking that this kid was here to find trouble again.

  Chen Dongfang is much calmer now, and nodded to Yang Hongying: "I came here today to talk about the cooperation with the instant noodle factory."

  As soon as everyone heard this, they went about their business.

  All the guests came, Liu Qingshan poured Chen Dongfang a cup of tea, and Liu Yinfeng also brought over a plate of snacks, half of which were melon seeds and half were pine nuts.

  Since the instant noodle factory is involved, Liu Jinfeng and Yang Hongying are also here.

  Liu Qingshan asked straight to the point: "Manager Chen, how do you plan to cooperate?"

  Chen Dongfang took a sip of tea lightly: "My idea is this, our Hualong Instant Noodle Factory will provide you with uniform braised beef noodles as an OEM, and the profit will be divided in half."

   After finishing speaking, he added another sentence: "We are only responsible for producing noodles."

  It is just to prevent the other party from suspecting that he is peeping at the recipe of the seasoning, so declare it in advance.

  Liu Jinfeng and Yang Hongying looked at each other and nodded slightly. The supply of their unified braised beef noodles was indeed in short supply. Chen Dongfang's proposal moved them very much.

   There is another meaning: choosing an OEM means that the other party has voluntarily surrendered, and the unified factory has won a big victory.

  But the two sisters still looked at Liu Qingshan together in the end, Sanfeng had to decide on this matter.

  Liu Qingshan also took a sip of tea slowly, then grabbed a handful of melon seeds and picked out a grain from it.

  The melon seeds here are relatively flat, and there is a small round hole, obviously bitten by insects.

  Liu Qingshan put this stinky melon seed in front of Chen Dongfang, and said unhurriedly: "If Hualong Factory belongs to you, Manager Chen, then I will definitely agree to your proposal."

   "It's a pity that your factory cooperates with people from the island country. It's like a handful of good melon seeds mixed with a rotten melon seed, which makes people feel uncomfortable."

   "Manager Chen, I would rather earn less than let the islanders take our money away from me."

  Hearing this, Chen Dongfang's eyes darkened: From a business point of view, this is definitely not the right choice.

  But from an emotional point of view, it is understandable for Liu Qingshan to do so.

   At this moment, Chen Dongfang also carefully examined his past practices: perhaps, choosing to cooperate with the islanders is not a wise choice.

   These islanders, not only did not bring him help, but they were a little bit behind.

  Chen Dongfang smacked his lips, probably because the tea was too strong, and he felt a little bitter in his mouth.

   Putting down the teacup, he stood up: "Everyone, I'll take my leave then, sorry to bother you."

  Liu Qingshan raised his hand and said: "Enter the threshold, eat a bowl, Manager Chen will have to eat before leaving."

  Chen Dongfang would definitely not eat here, so after a few words of politeness, he said goodbye and went out.

  When Liu Qingshan sent him to the car, he smiled and said: "Manager Chen, maybe we have a chance to cooperate in the future, of course, it's just between you and me."

"I am looking forward."

  Of course Chen Dongfang understood, and solemnly shook hands with Liu Qingshan again, before driving away from Jiapigou.

  …

  The next day is New Year's Eve, Liu Qingshan's house is also very lively, besides his family, Zheng Hongqi also comes here to celebrate the New Year.

  With the addition of dumb grandpa, Li Tieniu and others, two tables were filled for dinner.

  The fourth and fifth children all put on new clothes and led the little white ape to run around inside and outside the house. The little monkey is also in the Chinese New Year, and they are also dressed in underwear.

   Pants are still crotch pants, which is more convenient when it is convenient.

  Outside the house, the big bear was also brought by the dumb grandpa. You can’t just throw it up the mountain, right?

   It’s just that this guy can eat too much. When eating dumplings, he ate a whole gailian, and he was only half full.

  The small mountain village, which is peaceful on weekdays, is also very lively today. The sound of crackling firecrackers has not stopped since the morning.

  Bursts of fragrance wafted out from the cracks in the doors of every household, and then filled the whole village.

  With the prosperity of the cooperative, every year, everyone has money on hand, so the preparations for the new year are extraordinarily rich.

  This can be seen from the number of firecrackers from the children.

  In the past, there were at most one or two small foreign whips, all of which had to be disassembled.

  In this year’s Jiapigou, who doesn’t have more than a dozen firecrackers hanging up, looking proud!

  Liu Qingshan’s family also prepared various hanging whips. During the New Year’s Eve dinner, two large firecrackers were hung on both sides of the gate, and Liu Qingshan and Li Tieniu lit one respectively.

  Hearing loud crackling noises, the big dog at home was so frightened that it went into the kennel.

  It's a pity that it can't get in, because the kennel has been occupied by a big bear, and this guy is also afraid of firecrackers.

   Still, the little white ape is smarter, knowing how to cover his ears with his little paws.

   "When I was young, I liked setting off firecrackers the most, but they were not bought in nursing homes." Li Tieniu, looking at the smoke of firecrackers, his eyes were a little blurred.

   "Then, I kowtowed to those grandparents and asked them for New Year's money. You get one cent, he gets two cents. I got a handful of steel coins and went to the supply and marketing agency to buy firecrackers."

   While talking, this guy wiped his eyes with his sleeve.

  Liu Qingshan patted his shoulder with his hands: "Tomorrow is the first day of the Lunar New Year, let's drive over and have a look."

"Ok!"

  Li Tieniu nodded emphatically: "I'm rich now, I want to bring back some delicious food for those grandparents!"

  Liu Qingshan suddenly felt extremely happy: "Haha, Tieniu, money is spent, and such a spend is valuable, do you want me to help you some more?"

   "No, no, I have tens of thousands on hand."

  Li Tieniu saw that the firecrackers had been set off, so he ran to him, pawed them with his feet for a while, then picked up a few broken twisters, and lit them again.

  At this moment, he seemed to see the shadow of his childhood.

   Wait until 8 o'clock in the evening, everyone is standing in front of the big color TV, chatting and waiting for the start of the Spring Festival Gala.

  This year is already the fourth Spring Festival Gala, and the lunar calendar is Bingyin Year of the Tiger, so after the concert, there will be a cross talk "Speaking of the Tiger in the Year of the Tiger".

  The tall and lanky famous crosstalk actor has since opened a legendary record of appearing on the Spring Festival Gala stage for more than 30 consecutive years.

  The whole family was amused, and there wasn't much entertainment at this time, so the Spring Festival Gala was the most anticipated show.

  Liu Qingshan was also very excited to watch, when a host or actor came out, he muttered:

   "You are so young!"

   It made everyone wonder: Are you young? Some of them have unshaven beards, so they are also called young?

  The program that impressed me the most was the skit "Mutton Skewers" by Chen Xiaoer and Lao Maoer at the finale.

  Laughing so much that everyone covered their stomachs, Liu Jinfeng couldn't straighten his waist, and put his hand on Liu Qingshan's shoulder:

   "Sanfeng, if our factory produces lamb kebabs, we will definitely ask them to advertise, it's so funny."

  Liu Qingshan blinked: "Then it probably won't be sold. Who would dare to buy it if you have diarrhea after eating?"

  My elder sister Yang Hongying was very inspired: "Maybe we can ask them to advertise our ham sausage."

  Although ham sausage is selling well in Maozi, the domestic market has never been opened.

  Liu Qingshan thinks about it, it seems that he really has a trick, anyway, now he invites celebrities to advertise, and the price is cheap.

  If you ask Chen Xiaoer to put on a big robe, put on a fake beard, and yell, "We won't be selling mutton skewers this year, but Uni-President ham sausage", "Tong-Pong ham sausage tastes great", then the effect will definitely be good.

  So he said with a smile: "Then leave it to your aunt's advertising company, the fat and water won't flow to outsiders' fields."

   At twelve o'clock in the middle of the night, we started to eat boiled dumplings. This year, the fourth and fifth children were the luckiest, and they all ate the steel coins in the dumplings.

   There were three bags in total, and Liu Yinfeng ate the third one.

  Liu Qingshan couldn't help thinking: These three sisters are going to get rich this year!

  It is possible for the second sister to get rich, and she has a huge amount of money in her hands.

   But what about the fourth and fifth?

  Think about the playful investments of these two little guys, which may usher in an explosion this year.

  According to the usual practice, it is necessary to watch the year, but after watching it, everyone fell asleep in the end.

  …

  The next morning, after eating the first dumpling meal of the Year of the Tiger, Liu Qingshan and Li Tieniu set off in a jeep.

  Besides their brothers and sisters, there are also four and five in the car. These two little guys have to follow along to join in the fun.

  The nursing home where Li Tieniu grew up is also in the Songjiang area, less than 300 miles away. After arriving at the county where he lives, the road to the village is not very easy.

   After walking for more than an hour, it was two o'clock in the afternoon, and then I saw the rising township in front of me.

  The nursing home is at the western end of the township government, about two or three miles away from the township.

  The yard is quite large, with two rows of red brick houses with thatched roofs.

  The jeep was parked in front of the gate. When we got out of the car, we saw the sign of Shengsheng Township Nursing Home.

  Seeing this familiar scene, Li Tieniu was obviously a little excited, and howled loudly:

   "Grandpas and grandmas, I Tieniu is back!"

   This voice was so good that the magpies on the big poplar tree behind the house were startled and flew into the sky, chirping.

   Soon, people came out of each house, including old men and women on crutches. In nursing homes, there were orphans and widows, and some disabled people.

  Of course, there are also a few children who ran out bouncing around. They are also orphans. They grew up here, and the nursing home is their home.

   "What a snow cow!"

   A little boy cheered.

  The little guy has a split lip, which is commonly known as the hare lip. There is a big gap on the upper lip, which goes all the way to the bottom of the nose, so the speech is a bit leaky, and the pronunciation is not accurate.

  Li Tieniu picked up the seven or eight-year-old child, and threw it into the air a few times:

   "Haha, Rabbit, here are the firecrackers for you, let them go!"

  The dolls clattered, surrounded the bag on the ground, unzipped it, and then exclaimed, it was full of firecrackers.

  From the smallest small foreign whip to the big marlezi, there are everything.

   "Brother Xueniu, let me down, let me down!"

  The little boy called Rabbit was held up by Li Tieniu, kicking his legs anxiously.

   And the fourth brother began to criticize Li Tieniu seriously: "Brother Tieniu, how impolite you are to call people nicknames!"

  Li Tieniu put the little boy on the ground, scratched the back of his head: "Everyone has been called that since childhood, I don't even know his name, rabbit, what's your name?"

  The little guy with the parted lip didn't even raise his head: "Brother Xueniu, I don't know, you should ask the dean."

  Hearing these words, Liu Qingshan felt a little uncomfortable. The nursing home is not as good as home.

   At this time, those old men and women finally came to the front, and greeted Li Tieniu cheerfully.

  A thin old man with a goatee grabbed Li Tieniu's arm:

   "Tie Niu, everyone was still talking about you when we ate dumplings last night. They said that if you want to be here, there must be enough to eat."

   "Grandpa Wang, this is a trough cake for everyone." Li Tieniu opened another bag, in addition to bottles of Bishui Daqu, there were bags of snacks.

   There were still a few packs of toffee, Li Tieniu took them out and threw them to the children.

  Children in nursing homes usually develop rules, do not grab food, and share it equally.

  Li Tieniu excitedly picked up a bag of snacks again: "Where is Grandpa Zhang, this is his favorite Changbai cake, sweet and soft!"

   "Alas...Old Zhang left in summer." Grandpa Wang sighed.

  The Changbai cake in Li Tieniu's hand fell to the ground with a thud, and there were also two lines of his tears that fell together.

  Liu Qingshan went up and patted him on the shoulder: "Tie Niu, give lucky money to the children, and red envelopes to grandparents."

  Li Tieniu wiped his eyes with his sleeve, and then took out a stack of red envelopes from his pocket, each of which was bulging, regardless of the age, he distributed them one by one.

  The boy with parted lips curiously opened the red paper bag, and then let out an exclamation from his mouth. Inside the paper bag lay several sheets of Great Unity.

   After counting, there are ten cards in total, so that is one hundred yuan.

  Others also quickly opened, all of which were one hundred yuan red envelopes.

  In the entire nursing home, there are more than 20 people, old and young, and they will go out for more than 2,000 yuan!

   "Tie Niu, this money is too much, everyone can't accept it, and you have to marry a wife."

  An old lady with silver hair and shrunken cheeks tremblingly approached Li Tieniu, and returned the red envelope in her hand.

   "Grandma Li, what are you doing? Keep it!"

   Li Tieniu waved his hands repeatedly and said.

  When other people saw it, they also started to return the red envelopes, even those little kids, although their eyes were full of reluctance.

  This time Li Tieniu was in a hurry, two big slaps danced in the air, shouting loudly: "Take it, take it all, I have money, I have money now."

   was making a fuss, and suddenly a crisp voice sounded:

   "Grandpa, grandma, and younger brothers and sisters, please keep them all. Brother Tieniu is really rich, tens of thousands!"

   It was Xiao Lao Si who chimed in.

   "Tie Niu, where did you get so much money?"

  Grandma Li stared at Li Tieniu with dim old eyes: This kid must have done something bad, right?

  Li Tieniu pulled Liu Qingshan in front of him: "My money is all earned by doing business with my little brother."

  Liu Qingshan also smiled and nodded vigorously: "Grandpas, grandmas, brothers and sisters, this is Tieniu's kindness, everyone should keep it."

  Those old and young believed it now, and happily put away the money, and looked at Liu Qingshan and his brothers and sisters very kindly.

  In their simple concept, those who can lead the iron ox to make a fortune are of course good people, and they are also worthy of gratitude.

  Li Tieniu also breathed a sigh of relief, and then reported a good news: "Grandpa and grandma, when I passed by the county, I invited the county theater troupe to sing Errenzhuan for everyone at night!"

   Now, those old men and women are all very excited: they would rather give up a meal than play with each other.

  Grandpa Wang was more sensible, and asked in surprise: "Tie Niu, it's Chinese New Year, and the troupe doesn't have a holiday?"

  Li Tieniu grinned, and patted his chest vigorously: "You can also invite me during the holidays. I will directly give the head of the group 500 yuan and tell him to recruit people. Don't worry, everyone, I have money."

  Liu Qingshan has also seen many people showing off their wealth, but he not only welcomes those who show off their wealth to Li Tieniu, but also feels a little more touched.
