Chapter 253: Up the Mountain and Down to the Countryside
After glancing at the dormitory, Conan felt that this trip to the countryside was just a guest, and the most important thing was to accompany Togo, who must be in the White Stork Village. White Stork Village is the home village of the general manager of the provincial head office, and the project cannot fail, but can only succeed, so that the men, women and children in the village have water to drink.
Togo's budget for himself is quite sufficient, it will definitely not be used up, Conan knows this very well, at the moment, you can do successful things with money, to put it simply, money is at work, without money, the clever daughter-in-law can't cook, with money, the stupid daughter-in-law can ask the nanny to buy good rice, and definitely make a good meal. Suppose Togo is a stupid daughter-in-law, and she can also cook. Not afraid of experimentation, not afraid of waste, do as many times as you want, there is no reason not to succeed. Under the heavy reward, there will be brave men, and there will be money and good things. Why bother trying to save money?
The car started to start, and Yoon Hyun-in asked the driver, "Is it too early?" ”
"It's too early, the people in our small county town are not powerful, they get up early, and it is the literati who go to bed late and get up late is what the literati do. We are coarse people, we can't do those things, we can only use some stupid strength to eat. The driver said.
It seems that the driver is very talkative, and Yoon Hyun-in also likes to talk, so he just walks all the way and can pass the time all the way.
As soon as Conan got in the car, he began to sleep, waking up once or twice in between, and spending the rest of the time in a blur. Ji Conan can't interject, only choose to be silent, choose to rest, as long as he doesn't speak out, it is not easy to offend people, because speaking appropriately can make people comfortable, and if he doesn't speak appropriately, he will hit people, hurt people, offend people, and may eventually become enemies, unforgettable, and he will continue to fight, and in the end he will lose both.
The scenery outside the car window, I have already seen it, Conan saw this, I think it is normal, not a photographer who has lived in the city for a long time, seeing the mountain, it is like seeing money, excited, choose the best shooting angle, take a beautiful picture out, upload it to the Internet, can make netizens rate, get some appreciation and encouragement, will make the photographer more obsessed with this. Photographers or photography enthusiasts may not care about the prize money, but about the interest, just as a fisherman may prefer to enjoy fishing and not care about how many fish he catches.
When the car arrived at the village project office, the old sign of White Stork Village was still hanging there, but I always felt very awkward. Togo got in touch with Jiang Menshen, and Jiang Menshen soon appeared, he opened the door of the village project office, and then helped carry the things, without the participation of the villagers. Conan thought to himself, is it possible that there is no money in the village? If you have money, you are not afraid of inviting villagers to carry it, the advantage of this is that people do not suffer losses and losses, and the money can be earned back, and no matter how much money people go, they can't get it back. No one will spend money to extend their life by a minute, and at a certain time, it will be difficult not to die. It's useless to spend this money, so far no one can buy a life with money when they are dying, in fact, in the end, money has no meaning at all. Money is useful to the living, but useless to the dead.
After moving, Togo gave the driver a fare, two hundred, which was okay, but the three of them didn't bring anything, and it added up to almost 100 yuan.
Put down the things, assigned the room, considering that in the future Conan and Yin Xianren will leave the white stork, both of them live on the first floor, Togo sleeps in the room on the edge of the second floor with a gate gate, just like Togo said last time, it is more convenient to get up at night, you don't have to go through the corridor, go downstairs, and then go down the corridor, go around a big circle, and get to the latrine. It's just that you can do this when no one is passing by, and if there are people, you probably have to reschedule the evening's activities.
After the arrangements were made, Jiang Menshen invited everyone to the town for dinner, and Yin Xianren agreed, saying: "For the first time, the cold pot and cold stove will be a meal first, and we will buy some things, and then officially start cooking and eating at the residence tonight." ”
Jiang Menshen listened, gave a thumbs up and said: "It's really better to be famous than to meet, you are really for the people, don't take advantage, don't take a stitch from the masses!" I didn't believe it at first, but today I saw that you even brought pots and pans, gas and bedding, and I completely believed it. ”
Yin Xianren said: "Yes, our agency requires this, because we are not a staff member of the coordination office, and we don't have any idea of getting promoted and making a fortune, but we just do a good job at the grassroots level honestly and do something really good for the people, and we feel very good in our hearts, have a sense of accomplishment, and it is worth doing, so we stick to it." The performance you're talking about, maybe the other staff, doesn't have much to do with us. ”
Jiang Menshen has been a village cadre for many years, and he has seen the staff go to the countryside and live in the villagers' homes, which is really hard-working, not trying to be promoted in the future, and must go to the countryside to gild, in fact, at that time it was very hard to be a staff, no one wanted to do it, including teachers, many educated people were unwilling to do it, unlike now, teachers and people who serve the public are too good professions, no one wants to leave such a team, and go to farm or do small business, and live a life in the wind and rain, it is too hard, not to do it for a dayThe day's harvest is gone, but the expenses are still the same, and the expenses are like the sun rising in the east and setting in the west every day, and they have not decreased or changed at all, unless they are invited to a high-priced meal that day, and there is no overhead, no smoke in the kitchen, and nothing else can be controlled.
Everyone followed Jiang Menshen like last time, looking at Jiang Menshen, they didn't feel hungry, because Jiang Menshen is indeed very good, up and down, left and right are about the same length, walking on the road, like a stone, passers-by have to dodge, so as not to be touched, such a stone, once touched, either dead or injured.
Follow Jiang Menshen, especially feel safe, because his figure is very strong, he looks like a big chef, he is not hungry at all, in case he is hungry, there is also a sense of satisfaction, because Jiang Menshen's figure is no longer like a person, it is indeed a little scary, if you don't want to become the second Jiang Menshen, it is possible to deliberately control your weight, and the most important way to control your weight is to control your mouth.
Regardless of your mouth, it is very likely that the meat that you have worked so hard to lose will grow back, because Chinese people are such a species, just by deliberately losing weight, I am afraid that it will kill people, so you might as well relax yourself, eat when you should eat, and drink when you should drink.
When I arrived at Flower Street, Conan looked a little familiar, and I felt more kind and cute, just like when I arrived in a class, I saw a new classmate, who looked average, often watched, often dealt with, and found that the classmate was really cute and beautiful, and even to the point that I missed it very much if I didn't see him for a day.
This classmate may not be aware of it, but it doesn't matter, the person in love is still there, and the person who is in love is also there, but the falling flowers are intentional, the flowing water is ruthless, not indifferent, no one said it, and the result became the fault of the wrong. Once you miss it, it's a lifetime. If you like it, you have to confess, you can't hide it in your heart, outsiders don't know, you are in pain, no one sympathizes, no one matches you, and you are shy, and you can only miss your life.
After the meal, Jiang Menshen signed the bill, of course, in the end, the people from the coordination office came to pay the bill, which is self-explanatory. Conan walked down the street and saw the people who were doing business, and he felt embarrassed, they were taxpayers, they were required to pay taxes honestly, and they ate other people's food, but they were doing it through the hands of the coordination office. Conan himself is also a taxpayer, every time he goes to the supermarket to buy something, the items he buys contain taxes, in addition, Conan occasionally writes some articles, earns some manuscript fees, and also has to go through accounting to do accounts, and some expenses will also be deducted, Conan eats his own taxes, which can be regarded as peace of mind.
After the meal, Jiang Menshen went to the township for a meeting, Yin Xianren proposed to send a message to Miss Liu, asking if she could buy some items, kitchen utensils used in the dormitory of White Stork Village, mops and other groceries, but I didn't expect this to get a quick reply, agreed to the request, Togo was very happy, and finally breathed a sigh of relief, this request is not excessive, it is the common need of everyone, and more importantly, it does not cost much, and it does not cost a few dollars. This is the attitude that the person in charge of the organization wants, and it cannot be cut first and then played, otherwise, it will not be easy to manage.
Yoon Hyun-in is more nostalgic, because the last time he stayed in the hotel of the staff of a certain department (not the commissary), Yoon Hyun-in proposed to go to the grocery store owned by the staff, that is, the supermarket in the entire Hua'er Street, to buy some things.
Togo supports, Conan is one to two compared to them, the minority obeys the majority, it just so happens that Conan doesn't want to think too much, even if they spend more money behind his back, it is not impossible for the two to make some small moves in private. There is no one who doesn't like to take advantage of small advantages, and seeing who lives long in the end is a comprehensive inspection and appraisal of people's lifelong behaviors, and in the end, people can understand this truth. Most people lose themselves in the chess game, and if no one reminds them, most of them will fall into the pit, unable to be rescued, and have to wait for death.
Hua'er Street Supermarket has a special nature, so no one dares to mess with it, business is particularly good, of course, abide by the unspoken rules, business will be good, what unspoken rules? The layman looks at the bustle, and the insider looks at the doorway. Yin Xianren has also opened a grocery store before, he said that the secret of opening a store, if there is no special nature, we must work the variety, try to make the variety colorful, everything, do not let customers go back empty-handed, as long as it can meet the needs of different customer groups, this grocery store will only get better and better, there is no problem of loss and money. There should be answers to questions, no and no customers can be pushed out, in short, we must try our best to make money, only when we make money, we have a chance to turn over.
It is not easy to open a supermarket in the depths of the mountains, the mountains are sparse, and some villagers have searched everywhere in order to buy a gadget, but they have not found it, but they have gone over the mountains and mountains to Hua'er Street, and they can buy what they want, which is not a simple thing.
Like liberation shoes, old-style military uniforms, tunics, etc., are the favorites of male villagers, especially the elderly, who prefer nostalgia, and also recognize the military's products, although the military's products are somewhat outdated and bulky, but in terms of quality, there is a slight guarantee. In the mountainous area, the main time is still used to do work, do things on the hillside, wear clothes to be practical and durable, of course, good quality, so that you can wear a few more times, reduce the frequency of shopping, you can do it.
The old man feels that wearing a military uniform or a Zhongshan suit is safe, and he will not make mistakes, such clothing is a popular clothing in the past hundred years, just like the Qing army entered the customs and took power, requiring people to keep braids, and now there has been no change of dynasty, and the clothing has not changed, even if it changes, it will not change anywhere. The tide of the world is mighty, and those who follow me prosper and those who oppose me perish, this is the truth.
However, the clothes made according to the appearance of the tunic are not good in material and poor in workmanship, and they are generally very watery, but the villagers just like it. Of course, there are also some villagers who like suits, and this suit, which was popular in the thirties, in the mountains, has not yet ended, and may be the effect of traditional customs and previous concepts.
Seeing the villagers on the street, most of them are wearing suits, and some are wearing jackets, but most of those villagers are wearing suits when they are working on the hillside, and most of those villagers are wearing suits, so Conan couldn't understand why they still wore suits when they did their work? Of course, it is also possible to go to eat a high-priced meal after finishing work. It's good now, eat directly, and don't need to change clothes. It's the best of both worlds.
Pants rolled up, old and tall, that's a small worker, trouser legs rolled high, to avoid being polluted by cement mortar, in short, it's not very appropriate to wear clothes and do things, but, it's normal for police and gangsters to fight in suits, because those guys in suits and leather shoes do bad things, damn it, they should be killed, and they do the right thing for heaven. If you wear a suit to do farm work or do a house, I'm afraid you have to think about the meaning of wearing clothes.
What's more, when wearing a suit, all the buttons are neatly buttoned, and some are not buttoned, only the top button is buttoned in the three-breasted one, and the trademark on the sleeve is not removed, until the suit is worn and thrown away, and the trademark on the sleeve is still not removed, because they will not think that whether it is a good suit or a general suit, after buying, they will have to remove the trademark on the sleeve. These etiquettes are all about looking at the details, and Conan didn't understand them before. Although Feng Feifei is mean and scathing, there is still research on these dressing etiquette, because people rely on clothes, horses and saddles, and when they go out, they don't know the details, and the first impression is that they are dressed appropriately and generously, which can reflect sound thoughts, leave a good impression, and facilitate continued communication next time. This is what Conan realized.
Conan didn't understand either, but working in the mountains, unlike at home, where there was a wardrobe, a hanger, and dry cleaning, Conan often wore a suit to run errands. But in the mountains, it's not so convenient. The space in the suitcase is limited, and it takes up a certain amount of space to put some items that must be used, and then there are clothes, and if you put a suit, it will definitely be crumpled and not good-looking, plus Conan likes to carry backpacks, and doesn't like suits, so you can't bring suits, lest suits be like backpacks, and you will be wrinkled if you want to.
