  Chapter 17 Stubborn Old Man

  After Jiang Xiaobai finished speaking, the Youth Courtyard was quiet, and the dog's eyes kept turning on Jiang Xiaobai.

  I don’t know if I talked too much in one breath just now, or I was agitated, my chest was constantly rising and falling.

   "Liu Aiguo, go and get bottles and cans for Aunt Zhang and his family, and let them take them back. All the witnesses are here today. Jiang Xiaobai, my speech, spit on a nail, and never break my promise. Our urban youth will never cause trouble to the village.

  Jiang Xiaobai finished speaking and turned back to the house. After Liu Aiguo gave a bottle of canned food to one person, the crowd slowly dispersed, and the dog's face turned blue and red, and turned away.

  After the dog eggs left, Jiang Xiaobai thought for a while and turned to Liu Aiguo and said, "Go, call everyone into the house."

   Soon urban youths all came to the house. Fifteen urban youths crowded the house, but they were not noisy. They were all looking at Jiang Xiaobai.

Jiang Xiaobai looked at everyone’s gaze and said, “Everyone has seen what happened today. Our movements are so much from the same village. It must be concealed that we can make money and live a better life. Some people will inevitably be jealous. This is also normal.

  But we can’t give up the money we’ve worked so hard to find. Now we can eat meat and drink every day. That was because we took the risk and made the risk of going out to beg if we didn't succeed. There were 15 of us, and a total of 100 yuan. After we paid the deposit for the canned bottle, we left more than 10 yuan.

I don’t know what the villagers said about us at that time when you still can’t remember, a group of prodigal sons, they are waiting to see our jokes, today we see that our lives are better, we want to get together, why there was no one... "

   Jiang Xiaobai said, all the people who had been fooled by the accountant's egg just now also reacted.

   "Little Bai, I understand when you say this, I just let the **** fool you, and I will resolutely not let that stuff enter the yard." Liu Yuan said bitterly.

   "Yes, this accountant is not a thing. Fortunately, I almost believed him just now..." Zhang Yanmei asked the dog to say that her eyes were red. If it hadn't been for so many people just now, Zhang Yanmei would have wanted to persuade Jiang Xiaobai.

   "Xiao Bai, don't worry, we won't let the old Xi fool you..." Wang Peng stared.

"Okay, it's a good thing to have them here today. It's a good thing to wake us up, and to be prepared in advance, but some plans have to be advanced," Jiang Xiaobai thought for a while. He has forgotten what era this is, and some things still need to be guarded.

"From tomorrow on, the sales team will stop temporarily. Everyone will make canned food. If the two production workshops are not enough, two more houses will be vacated. The gays will squeeze in. If it doesn't work in summer, they will spread the mats in the yard at night. Sleep. Tomorrow Liu Aiguo and I will go to the county to get the remaining canned bottles back..."

  After Jiang Xiaobai finished speaking, the people were all gone. Someone had gone to the house before it was too early, and now the better the day passes, and Jiang Xiaobai’s prestige is getting higher and higher.

  If at the beginning, people Jiang Xiaobai was because of the urban youth who came to Jianhua Village. Jiang Xiaobai and the group came from Longcheng Factory in Jin Province with the most children, and Wang Xiaojun and the factory children are quite Jiang Xiaobai, so they should also.

  Now Jiang Xiaobai is completely convinced by his performance during this period of time, so Jiang Xiaobai said, everyone rushed to vacate the room.

  The next morning, when it was dark, Jiang Xiaobai and Liu Aiguo set off. This time they brought scallion pancakes, and I wonder how much happier they ate compared to the last time they ate corn pancakes.

  After arriving in the town, Jiang Xiaobai asked Liu Aiguo to sell two packs of cigarettes and a few bottles of wine before he boarded the bus to the county.

This time it was a bit faster than last time, but it was noon when we arrived at the county seat. Jiang Xiaobai and Liu Aiguo hurried to the county glass factory, but they had already seen the factory door open, and groups of workers filed out, although they were not dressed in gray. Ji's work clothes are clothes that will not be able to get out of the gate in later generations.

  At this time, the workers were dressed in work clothes and walked out of the steps that the six relatives did not recognize. Workers who did not have him at this time were very proud. Whose children worked in the factory, said that the media-stretching could break the threshold.

   "Okay, don't run, I won't be in a hurry in the morning." Jiang Xiaobai stopped, panting and saying.

  "Why are you two here? Both got off work at noon. Have you eaten?" The old man, the concierge, was about to get off work. He saw Jiang Xiaobai and Liu Aiguo as soon as he left the factory. He was very impressed with Jiang Xiaobai last time.

"Uncle Wang, our town is far from the county," Jiang Xiaobai said as he took the two bottles of wine and cigarettes bought in the town from Liu Aiguo, and said with a smile: "Uncle Wang, you were able to do the last thing thanks to you. Yes, it's fitting that there are two bottles of wine at home, so I will bring you over."

  Uncle Wang watched the two bottles of wine handed over by Jiang Xiaobai and swallowed involuntarily. He was a drinker.

Although he works in the factory, his salary is not very high. The life of his old couple is more than enough. It is not bad for a few girls to marry and he doesn't need to worry about him, but the youngest son has nothing to do all day, and he has not even married his wife. It made him have to subsidize a little.

  Therefore, apart from household wages, there is not much left, and only two sips can be taken during the holidays.

   "It's not good, it's too expensive." Old man Wang said insincerely.

   "Uncle Wang, this is what we honor you. You hold it." Jiang Xiaobai said and handed the things to Uncle Wang. He didn't ask for anything.

  It’s just that I’m really grateful to Mr. Wang. If it weren’t for Mr. Wang, I would say whether I can find canned bottles now, let alone sell canned food.

   "Okay, you two haven't eaten yet. Go home with my old man for dinner. I'll talk about anything in the afternoon..." Old man Wang took the item and looked at Jiang Xiaobai a little closer.

  In fact, this is how the feelings between people come from. If there is a relationship, the relationship will be better and the relationship will deepen.

   "No need..." Jiang Xiaobai was interrupted by Old Man Wang just as he wanted to refuse.

   "My house is not far away. Eating a meal will definitely not delay your work. If you don't go, you will look down on me, and I won't be able to take things away." Old man Wang stared and said that he would return the things to Jiang Xiaobai.

Jiang Xiaobai was taken aback. The old man was quite stubborn. Jiang Xiaobai clicked and agreed, and the three of them walked towards the old man's house.
