Chapter 40: The Fragrance of Golden Flower Tea
Kuang Dejun rode the brand-new electric car and met Zeng Xiangyuan, the director of the fungus factory, in the building materials market.
"Director Zeng, why are you rolling steel bars here?" Kuang Dejun saw him wearing heavy overalls, sweating profusely on the rolling mill.
He glanced up at Kuang Dejun, and suddenly said, "Oh, I remember, it's the little Kuang boss in Qianqian Village." Coincidentally, I have something to tell you, last time you said you wanted the batch of dilapidated equipment from my factory, you can go and pull it. I packed it all in one house. In recent days, I have been trying to call you, but I accidentally lost your phone number. ”
"Then early tomorrow morning, I'll ask Li Jian to pull it. How much is the estimated payment?" asked Kuang Dejun happily.
"Alas, what kind of money. It's all broken bottles and cans, and for those who are useful, it's still a little useful. For those who don't need it, giving it to him is too much of a space. Our factory didn't say that we would exchange these equipment for money, so I gave it to you as a favor. Zeng Xiangyuan rolled up his sleeves to wipe the sweat from his forehead, and said with a smile: "If I meet you selling mushrooms in the market in the future, give me a few for free, even if you repay me." ”
Kuang Dejun saw that he was in his fifties, a little bald, but he was in good spirits and spoke very interestingly. At the cold drink shop on the street, I bought a cold drink and handed it to him.
"Xiao Kuang, come to visit the building materials market, are you going to build a new house? If you want to buy reinforced concrete, just look for me, this shop is opened by my brother, I can give him a discount with you, the price is definitely lower than other stores." Zeng Xiangyuan said enthusiastically.
It's normal to be a brother working for a brother? The strain factory went out of business, and Zeng Xiangyuan and the others were laid off.
Kuang Dejun looked at the signboard hanging above: Hongyuan Building Materials Co., Ltd., a few big characters. The store occupies more than a dozen stores, and it seems that the scale is large.
In addition to steel bars, cement, steel plates, rails, angle irons, there are also steel wire mesh, temporary sheds and other projects. Aluminum alloys, anti-theft nets, tiles, paints and other materials are available.
"This boss is your brother?" It's better to go to more than one family, and sometimes it is easy to find acquaintances. Kuang Dejun said: "I have a few temporary sheds, as well as a few hundred meters of steel wire mesh project to find someone to do, you and the boss are brothers, I see you, go and negotiate with the boss about the price." ”
At this time, he saw that the time was half past nine. So he called and asked Li Jian: "Is the one who buried the barbed wire here?" Li Jian replied: "I only saw Ye Hongwen driving a construction truck to the construction site for a while, and then left." No one has started work yet. Kuang Dejun said to Li Jian: "If he comes again, inform him to leave." The work they did yesterday was checked for him, and the wages that met the standard were settled, and the work that did not meet the standard was reworked until the standard was met. ”
Zeng Xiangyuan led Kuang Dejun into the boss's reception room. The two of them were making tea and talking during the reception. The two of them were obese, and when they saw Zeng Xiangyuan coming in, they all bowed down, poured him a cup of tea, and said, "Big brother is really, why do you go to do such hard work, you look as tired as a monkey." You just have to wander around the shop area, you don't have to work so hard. ”
Zeng Xiangyuan said: "Old bones, can't be idle. If you give me a salary, I have to be worthy of it. ”
Another one with dimples on his face said, "Big brother is really, he can't be idle." Either go with me to plant Jinhua tea, the second child here is all some steel and iron plates or something, and if you don't pay attention to it, you will be bruised. ”
The two saw Kuang Dejun behind the eldest brother. Zeng Xiangyuan introduced: "Xiaokuang in Qianqian Village, there are a few sheds to build, and there are hundreds of meters of steel wire mesh to be buried.
Zeng Hongyuan, the owner of Hongyuan Building Materials Company, is only in his forties, with a Chinese face, no beard, and looks very generous. The other handed over a gilded business card that read: Zeng Xiangxi, general manager of Jinhua Tea Company.
"Boss Xiao Kuang, young and promising, what kind of company are you running?" Zeng Hongyuan stretched out a warm hand to him and shook them warmly.
"I'm just a farmer who wants to enclose a hill and do some farming in it. Kuang Dejun said modestly.
"Third child, Ye Jinchang of Zishan Town, have you heard of it? That kid came back and occupied a barren hillside in the town, yesterday I asked Lao Qiu and them to help him build a temporary shed, the hillside is surrounded by barbed wire, I heard who is preparing to dig a pit on the hillside to plant navel oranges. Zeng Hongyuan said to his third brother Zeng Xiangxi.
"Second brother, you don't know anything. That sloping land was originally a navel orange planted by a farmer surnamed Li for three years, and that piece of land was leased to Li Jingsheng by Ye Jinchang's father when he was alive, and it began to bear fruit last year. As soon as Ye Jinchang's father died, Ye Jinchang, who was in the gangdong gangster, returned to the village and threatened not to go out to farm at home. Seeing that Li Jingsheng's navel oranges began to bear fruit, he took possession of the navel orange orchard on the grounds of recovering the sloping land. Zeng Xiangxi still knows more about this matter.
Kuang Dejun listened to what they said about Ye Jinchang, who was a broken jar and wanted to ask for pills for nothing yesterday. The wicked are a scourge to their neighbors there.
Zeng Hongyuan said angrily: "I can't imagine that he is such a rotten person, if I knew, I wouldn't accept his business." ”
Zeng Xiangxi said: "This kind of rotten person, it's better for you to mess with less!"
Zeng Hongyuan said: "I will be afraid of him, in the territory of Guangdong, he will not be able to make waves in front of me." Thinking that he had snubbed the guests by chatting, he humbly said to Kuang Dejun: "Brother Kuang, I'm sorry." I'll give you a price, and if you see the right price, you can entrust us to do it. ”
Kuang Dejun saw that he quoted a specific and detailed price increase, and specifically listed the specifications of the materials used, the specifications were different, and the prices were not the same. It is lower than the price of Ye Shengwen's newspaper.
"Then please ask Mr. Zeng to arrange manpower to go to the construction as soon as possible. Kuang Dejun paid part of the deposit and told Zeng Hongyuan about Ye Shengwen's construction for a few days.
"I'm going to take over from Hongyuan Company, and he doesn't dare to let go of Ye Shengwen's fart. So it was decided, and in the afternoon my workers passed. Zeng Hongyuan invited Kuang Dejun to taste tea.
"This is the golden flower tea planted by my third brother, you drink a cup and see how it tastes. Zeng Hongyuan saw that this young man was cheerful and had the bearing to do great things, and he admired him in his heart.
Kuang Dejun looked at the three or four golden orange flowers in the cup, and he had already smelled a rich aroma of tea before he drank it. After the camellia is soaked in the cup, it is like a flower on the branch, which is particularly brilliant.
He took a small sip carefully, his mouth was full of fragrance, and the fragrance of tea in his mouth was around his tongue, which was a little bitter at first, and then bitter and sweet, and lasted for a long time.
Although the tea is golden and noble, but the water for making tea is a little less hot, Kuang Dejun thought: If you make tea with space spiritual spring water, this taste must be rare in the world.
