Chapter 54
Zhang's Green Island Branch
"Uncle, why did you suddenly remember to stay in Ludao City? The branches in Beijing and Hong Kong are much larger than those here. Zhang Shinian lowered his head and was drinking tea, and there was a handsome young man sitting opposite his desk with a natural demeanor, if you look closely, there are faint similarities between the eyebrows and eyes of these two people, which one else can it be if it is not Ji Junheng.
"How's your job?"
Ji Junheng has understood since he was a child that in their family, as long as his uncle doesn't want to answer, no one can force him to speak, so he has to change the topic, "I haven't been in the country for many years, and some things are really rusty to operate. Uncle, didn't you look at my schedule, the assistant sent to me by Wei Lin filled the schedule every day, and only scheduled my time to go to the toilet. β
"Do you want me to find someone to help you?" Ji Junheng is the only son of his second brother Ji Fangnan, and his mother is one of his cousins, and among his four nephews, he is the closest to this.
"Uncle, then you let Ah Joe come over to help me?" Ji Junheng leaned forward, his eyes were pitiful and hopeful, Ah Joe has been by Uncle's side for many years, and his work ability is obvious to all.
"I still have something for him to do, not for the time being, and besides, he is new to the city and is not familiar with the environment of Green Island City. These days, he occasionally thinks of Chen Tianyu's words, listening to those words, isn't Ton Ton an An Xiu's child?
"That's right. "I can't think too much about it.
"I asked Secretary Yu to help you for a while, she has been in the industry for many years, her work ability is very good, and she is a native of Green Island, so it should be more convenient to do things. β
"Is that the beautiful woman at the door?" he had seen when he came just now, and it seemed to be surnamed Yu.
"What's the matter?"
The person given by the uncle, how dare he be dissatisfied, "There is no Joe, it's not bad to have beautiful women, it's even better if it's a local, maybe you can let her take it around." β
"Are you looking for someone?" Zhang Shinian's eyebrows were calm, and his tone was also understated.
"I've been to school here before, and occasionally, I'd like to meet my old classmates here. β
"I haven't been in touch for so many years, can you still meet when we meet? I didn't see it before, you are still such a nostalgic person. β
Ji Junheng didn't know what his uncle was thinking, and said with nostalgia, "It's okay for others, but one of them is really quite close and often plays basketball together, when my grandfather was suddenly admitted to the hospital, I was in too much of a hurry when I left, and I didn't have time to say goodbye to him in person." I remember we were drinking the night before, and he was a pretty good drinker. β
Zhang Shinian's expression was a little weird, when he heard the beer, he would just run stupidly with people, this is called a good amount of alcohol? He was very skeptical that Jun Heng was talking about An Xiu, if not, then it would be the best, he didn't want the two to meet at all. There's really nothing to be proud of about the fact that his lover is a classmate of his nephew, "Since you're so friendly, why did you break off contact later?"
Ji Jun Hengjing was immersed in his memories, and didn't pay attention to the slight change in his uncle's expression, "I had contact before going abroad, I originally thought that even if I didn't study in college, it would be very convenient to contact, but then I didn't know what Lu Dao was for, he didn't go to college, but went to be a soldier, in the first few years, I called his home a lot, I don't know what Lu Dao is, his mother has never given me contact information, and his mother doesn't seem to like me very much." "It stands to reason that he and An Xiu's mother have never met, and there is no reason to offend her, and he himself doesn't know what Lu Dao is about.
After Ji Junheng said these words, Zhang Shinian could basically be sure that the old classmate he was looking for was An Xiu, but one thing was really strange, why did An Xiu's mother guard against the men around An Xiu so much? Is it like this to everyone? Or is it just for some people?
"By the way, uncle, didn't you see An Xiu back then? The night we drank, he slept next to you. "Listen to my father, the uncle has not been in good health since he was a child, grandma invited an old Chinese medicine doctor, specifically for him to recuperate, grandpa does not agree with this pampering method, he firmly believes that boys are good at beating and beating the bones, so he invited a lot of martial arts experts to teach uncle kung fu at home, so that later, uncle's skills are not even opponents of people like dad who were born in the army. An Xiu was sleeping next door at the time, and the uncle should have noticed it, why didn't the uncle ask him about it in the first place?
Of course, Zhang Shinian couldn't tell him that Chen Anxiu didn't sleep next to him, but slept in his bed.
Ji Junheng saw that he didn't speak, thinking that it was because the matter had been too long, and his uncle had no impression, so he didn't continue, and turned to say some other things, "When I was at home, Lu Biting came twice, uncle, what do you think of her?"
Zhang Shinian glanced at him lightly, and gave two words like gold, "It's okay." "I met it twice when I was in the United States, and it was a gentle girl, which left a good impression on him, but it didn't stop there.
Uncle doesn't like others to interfere in his private affairs, not to mention that he is still a generation lower, and Ji Junheng doesn't want to ask, but grandma threatened that if the uncle is not settled for the time being, he is ready to give him a blind date, for the sake of his single happiness, he stubbornly continued to ask, "Uncle, what do you mean by being okay?"
"It's not interesting. β
Ji Junheng wanted to cry without tears, what did it mean to have no meaning? How should he explain to his grandmother now, but the uncle's short way of speaking was obviously impatient, and he didn't dare to go against the scales.
On the internal phone was the sweet female voice of Secretary Yu, "Chairman, Mr. Wu Min, the general manager of Hongchang, has arrived." β
Zhang Shinian signaled with his eyes that Ji Junheng had nothing to do and could leave, the latter looked at his watch, it didn't take twenty minutes in total, and he drove people away without taking a sip of tea, and the uncle was really unsympathetic, but fortunately, he got an assistant, and he didn't suffer a loss. After talking for a long time, his mouth was a little dry, so he picked up the tea on the table and drank it all, "What kind of tea is this? Why haven't you drunk it?"
"Green tea here in Higashiyama. "I sent it two days before Anxiu.
Ji Junheng drank so fast that he didn't taste anything, and he wanted to complain a few words, but when he saw the uncle's face softened for no reason, the words came to his mouth and changed, "The taste is okay." β
Chen Anxiu's Taobao shop after three or four months of exploration stage, is now gradually on the right track, in addition to selling the past mountain goods and native eggs, now there are a lot of things, newly fried authentic spring tea, sesame sauce and sesame oil from the small mill in the town, are ground out of pure sesame seeds, the oil bean skin, bean curd and tofu balls from the tofu factory, and have not been mixed with anything else, in addition, he also froze the wild vegetables picked back in the spring, so that they can be stored for a long time, and a small Xiaoice bag is added to it when sent, and when the customer receives it, the taste has not changedγ
There is still a month before the cherries can be taken off the market, and Chen Anxiu saw that the cherries on his mountain were not bad this year, so he made a pre-sale online in advance.
"Brother Chen, are there really so many people buying things in our mountains on the Internet?" It was now more than ten o'clock at noon, and there was no one in the store, Chen Anxiu was knocking on the counter with the computer, and Sun Xiao came over curiously after wiping the table.
Chen Anxiu finished typing the last line of words and confirmed the address with the buyer, "It's okay, there are the most local, our store is here, people are not afraid that we will run away." β
"That's right, no wonder so many guests want the small business card of our Taobao store when they leave. β
Check the transaction records, the eggs are sold the best, the inventory at home is obviously not enough, this year he has entered a lot of chicks, anyway, the canyon is big enough, no matter how much it raises, it will not be a problem, but now the chickens are not yet the time to lay eggs, it seems that you have to find someone to go to the countryside to collect some points, "Sun Xiao, the second uncle Sun who sells fruit in the town, he has a nephew named Daji, is it very close to your family?"
"Yes, I live in an alley, separated by three doors. β
"Then does he often run from village to village?"
"He went down to collect things, scrap iron, scrap copper, scrap aluminum, old electrical appliances, batteries and other things, running around every day, his wife took someone else's car down the mountain one year, but when he came back, the driver got drunk and turned a whole car down the mountain, and his wife picked up a life, but since then she can't do any heavy work. The family counted on him alone when they ate. β
"Do you have his phone? I want him to help collect some eggs when he goes to the countryside. When the time comes, pay him by the pound. β
"I think it's okay, that person usually makes money, and he doesn't let go of a dime. Brother Chen, I'll get you a call. β
Chen Anxiu and Sun Daji have met a few times, and they can be regarded as acquaintances, but they have no contact before, but they didn't expect to call this time, and the person agreed very happily, and after two days, they brought more than 60 catties of eggs to the door, large and small, and they were collected from various homes at a glance, unlike the relatively uniform size of the chicken farm.
Chen Anxiu accepted it as it was, ordered the money from the wallet and gave it to him, and Sun Daji counted and pushed thirty to him.
"Brother Sun, how can this work? I can't let you run away in vain. At that time, Chen Anxiu said that the good thing was that it was five cents more than the market price per catty.
Sun Daji rubbed his hands and said with a somewhat restrained expression, "It's not for nothing, I want to ask you for help with something." β
Chen Anxiu poured him another cup of tea and said with a smile, "What's the matter, Brother Sun, you have something to say." β
Sun Daji took a sip of the teacup with both hands and said, "It's your sister-in-law, you may also know the Tao, and you can't do anything at home, I just want to ask, do you lack people to help in this store? She can't do anything else, it's okay to clean up the table and wash the dishes." β
Since Zhou Hai's daughter-in-law left, there is indeed such a person missing in this store, but Sun Daji's wife is not in good health, and I don't know if she can do it, "Brother Sun, then you let your sister-in-law try it another day, the main reason is that we are sometimes quite tired here, and I am afraid that my sister-in-law will not be able to bear it." Chen Anxiu didn't say anything very much, lest there be no way back when he got it.
"That's okay, that's okay, I'll let her try it tomorrow. Sun Daji was happy now.
When he left, Chen Anxiu still gave him back the money he deserved, and this time he accepted it after a little refusal, promising to collect more eggs next time and send it over.
"He's pretty polite. The person is far away, Sun Xiao muttered.
"This price was said to be good at the time, and he should accept it, by the way, do you know what the temper of his daughter-in-law is?"
"I heard my mother say that his daughter-in-law used to be a girl at home when she was famous for being spicy, and her health has not been good for the past two years, and the doctor made her less angry, and her temper looked a lot more restrained, and she worked very quickly. β
"Then we'll see. β
*
Ji Junheng's side, since he sent a Yu Yaqing over when he played the chapter, his work was really much easier, and when he had free time, he also had the heart to think about other things, he hadn't been in touch much in the past few years, and he also knew that Chen Anxiu's phone number at home had changed, he tried to dial it according to the old number, and it took a long time for someone to pick it up.
When Ji Junheng listened to that voice, he should have been An Xiu's mother, "Aunt Lin, I'm Ji Junheng." β
"Oh, it's you, what's the matter?" Chen's mother on the other end of the phone said in a gentle tone.
"It's not a big deal, it's just that I've been to Green Island recently, and I remember that I haven't seen An Xiu for many years, and I want to ask him if he's been at home lately? β
"It's a good thing for classmates to get together, but An Xiu has been too busy with work in the past two years and hasn't come back. I'll talk to him when he comes back next time. β
Listening to this tone, it is definitely not possible to want contact information, "That's good, Aunt Lin." β
"And do you have anything else?"
"It's all right, Aunt Lin. β
"In that case, I'm cooking in the pot, so I'll hang up first. β
Ji Junheng shrugged his shoulders and helplessly put down the beeping microphone.
Yu Yaqing knocked on the door and came in, handed him the accounts in his hand, pointed to one of them and said, "Mr. Ji, your signature is needed here." β
Ji Junheng looked through it and felt that there was no problem, Long Feifeng Wu signed his name, and asked casually, "Secretary Yu, do you have any special restaurants here?" "It's true that the seafood in Green Island City is a major feature, but he has been eating it every day recently, and he really can't digest it.
Yu Yaqing thought for a while and said, "Do you want to be distinctive?" There are many mountain and wild restaurants in the urban area, and there are also some local specialty restaurants, I have been to a few, and the taste is okay." β
"Is there anything particularly delicious?"
Yu Yaqing smiled, this is really difficult to identify the standard of special deliciousness, "Last month, our family went to the mountains, and there was a small restaurant in the town of Qiuli, the dishes were very good, and you could buy a lot of authentic farm goods there." β
"Qiuli Town?" Isn't that An Xiu's hometown? Although he hasn't been there, he's heard An Xiu mention it several times before, "Then this one, Secretary Yu, you copy the address to me." β
"His house is quite easy to find, driving all the way to the town and asking about the small kitchen of the ton family, many people know about it. β
"It's an interesting name, so let's take a look at it today on Thursday and over the weekend. β
