Yao Weimin returned to the backyard and entered the house with Shen Wenli and the two of them carrying the purchased vegetables.

When Han Guifeng and his wife saw that their son and daughter-in-law were back, they were overjoyed, and they were busy fishing out the watermelon chilled with well water from the bucket and cutting it.

Yao Hongxia's study in the neighborhood office has already ended, because she will go to the university tomorrow to report, she took her sister to the people's market to buy school supplies in the afternoon, and she has not come back yet.

A family of four was eating watermelon and chatting for a while, Han Guifeng clapped his hands and got up to prepare to go to the dining shed to work for dinner.

"Wen Li, sit down, every time you come back, I'll let you stir-fry, I'll come today, you and Wei Min can just cool off in the house!"

Seeing that Shen Wenli also got up, Han Guifeng didn't agree with anything, and pressed her back into the chair.

Not long after, the sisters Yao Hongxia and Yao Hongfang entered the door, and the atmosphere in the room suddenly became more lively.

Shen Wenli gave the pen she brought to Yao Hongxia, and Yao Weimin gave Yao Hongxia fifty yuan, so that she could buy all kinds of items she needed when she arrived at school.

Yao Weimin didn't really give 300 yuan, not that he was reluctant, but that this amount was too much, and the family would definitely strongly oppose giving Yao Hongxia so much money, and his eldest sister would definitely not ask for it.

In fact, even if he only took out fifty yuan, Yao Hongxia resolutely didn't want it, and later Shen Wenli forcibly put it in her pocket.

The dinner was very rich compared to other families, the family sat around the dinner table, eating, drinking, laughing, and once again praised and encouraged Yao Hongxia, and everyone sent words of encouragement.

The meal lasted until more than eight o'clock, and after cleaning up and drinking tea for a while, it was almost ten o'clock when Yao Weimin and Shen Wenli left the courtyard.

The two rode bicycles and just walked out of Tongluoguxiang not far away, when they saw Gangzi at the intersection, the latter put his hands in his trouser pockets, constantly walking back and forth, and when he saw Yao Weimin's figure, he made a vague gesture.

Yao Weimin took advantage of Shen Wenli's inattention, raised his hand and pointed to Gangzi in the direction of Yuqian'er Hutong, and continued to ride forward.

Gangzi understood, turned around and left the place.

After sending Shen Wenli home, Yao Weimin casually found an excuse, left the community again, and rushed to Yuqian'er Hutong.

Gangzi took the initiative to find him, something must have happened, and he needed to deal with it immediately.

About ten minutes later, Yao Weimin saw Gangzi waiting at the door of his yard, nodded to each other, and silently opened the door into the courtyard, and Gangzi bolted the courtyard door with his backhand.

"Second brother, there is suddenly a batch of fruit sellers in the pigeon market today, I went to a few pigeon markets, the situation is similar, after asking some people, I am sure that none of them are from us!"

Entering the house, Gangzi frowned and said such news before he could sit down.

"Oh? What about the price at which they sell, is it much different from what we set?"

Yao Weimin's expression was calm and he asked lightly.

He had long expected such a situation to happen, and basically guessed that it should be Liang Guoqing's doing.

After all, a batch of fruits had been transported from the south by truck last time, but the goods were found and confiscated while they were still in the warehouse, so they did not flow into the pigeon market at that time.

Now more than a month has passed, calculating the time, it is not surprising that the second batch of goods organized by Liang Guoqing appeared in Sijiu City.

Regarding Liang Guoqing's situation of buying and selling fruits in Sijiu City, Yao Weimin will not take the initiative to stir up trouble, Sijiu City is so big, it is not realistic to want to monopolize all the fruit markets.

As long as the other party is rushing to do business, there is no problem at all, everyone competes fairly, which is within the normal scope of business, but if the other party does not follow the rules, it will not let the other party make trouble.

Among them, the price is an issue that Yao Weimin is more concerned about, so he will take the lead in asking about the specific situation of Gangzi.

"The price is good, and each category is almost the same as ours." Gangzi replied seriously.

Yao Weimin smiled calmly and said slowly:

"As long as there is not much difference in price, then there is no need to worry about it at the moment

As the saying goes, you can't control other people's pants and fart, people have to do fruit trading, and we can't tie them up and prevent people from doing it.

At present, the top priority is to ask the brothers to raise the service attitude when setting up the stalls, you have been selling fruits for so long, there must be many regular customers, don't be afraid of competition, this is normal."

Gangzi groaned when he heard this, raised his head and asked in a low voice, "Second brother, do you think this batch of fruits will be transported back from the south by Liang Guoqing?"

Last month, this grandson approached my father-in-law and wanted my father-in-law to bring someone to work with him, and although he hasn't been seen again in the past month, I guess he must still be thinking about the fruit sold at the pigeon market!"

Yao Weimin nodded slowly and said:

"That's right, nine times out of ten, the inexplicable extra fruits in the market are behind Liang Guoqing shipping them.

But it doesn't matter, the important thing is that you not only pay attention to their selling prices, but also guard against these people deliberately finding faults, once this happens, remember to tell me as soon as possible, and I will deal with it!"

"Hmm! I understand the second brother!" Gangzi's expression perked up, and Yao Weimin's words made him invisibly full of confidence, and the previous nervousness disappeared in an instant.

"By the way, second brother, Xue Fei sent a telegram saying that the five thousand catties of goods shipped last month were almost sold, and it is estimated that he will have to transport goods in the next few days!"

Gangzi began to talk about other things, with a look of admiration on his face.

"Not to mention, Xue Fei is very powerful, with that little bit of people to get alive, it didn't take long for him to break into the fame, and he told me in the telegram that if he transports the goods again this time, he will start at eight thousand catties, tsk...... I'm so convinced, man!"

"Well, just listen to his letter, and let me know when the goods are available." Yao Weimin nodded with a pleased smile.

Then the two chatted for a while, and when Gangzi saw that the time was not early, he asked Yao Weimin to sit in the house, and walked out of the yard and quickly carried the payment for the sale of fruits.

After the settlement, Gangzi left with an empty cloth bag in his arm, Yao Weimin turned off the lights in the house, locked the door and returned to the house to rest.

The next day, Yao Weimin deliberately went to the procurement station, and since Yan Bugui had agreed to the matter, he still had to help with it.

In order to ensure that the system of unified purchase and sales is in place, the purchasing station does have provisions for the purchase of individual production materials.

For example, personally woven bamboo products, some handmade objects and other materials that need to be processed by individuals are all targets for purchase at the purchasing station.

When he came to the purchasing station, he found that more than half of the colleagues in the station were missing, and only a few people were still working in the station, and the entire spacious office area seemed particularly deserted.

Yao Weimin was stunned, but soon understood.

At present, the task of collecting public grain from various grain stations on the outskirts of the city has not yet been completed, and most of the colleagues have been sent to help.

At the beginning, Xiao Hongying told him that it was a good opportunity to be transferred to the cooperative headquarters by Ma Wenyong, otherwise if he stayed at the procurement station, he would most likely be sent down, and he would be roasted by the sun every day in the grain station, doing some physical work, and one station was a day, and the hardships were indescribable.

"Brother Fang, are you busy?" After Yao Weimin entered the door, after greeting the rest of his colleagues, he walked up to a middle-aged man and sat down with a smile.

"It's a little busy, don't we all go down to help, and a few of us are left behind, and everything in the station will be overwhelmed, haha......

The man surnamed Fang explained with a smile, and asked curiously, "Weimin, is there something looking for me, you just say, who is with whom, don't see each other."

"Brother Fang, the third master in my yard is a teacher, I don't like to fish at home during the summer vacation, yes, the fish I caught are reluctant to eat by myself, so I pickle them all with salt.

It is said that there are not many young and old people who are saving now, and now they are even more reluctant to eat and waste themselves, so I wonder if we can let our station buy it back and exchange some money to subsidize the family."

Yao Weimin did not hide it at all, and told Brother Fang what Yan Bugui told him as it was.

Brother Fang is an old worker in the station, and he has no choice but to take care of the seriously ill elderly at home

often travels, Xiao Hongying arranged for him to be responsible for personal production and repurchase, and generally this aspect of the matter can be basically solved by him.

"Hey, what do I think is the matter, that's all? Cheng, Weimin, you don't care, I'll go to your courtyard in the afternoon, you tell me the detailed name of that person or something, I'll go to him and take it back!"

Brother Fang smiled happily and nodded in agreement, treating Yao Weimin with both politeness and enthusiasm.

"Brother Fang, you can just do business, it won't make you embarrassed, right?" Yao Weimin asked with a smile.

"What's so difficult about this, although strictly speaking, the salted fish in your neighbor's hand is not a standard processed product, but after all, he caught it himself, as long as it is not speculation, buying and selling, then we can buy it at the door!"

Brother Fang handed a cigarette roll to Yao Weimin, took out a match and insisted on helping to light it, shook the half-lit matchstick with his hand, and said firmly.

"Then it's troublesome Brother Fang, thank you!" Yao Weimin thanked him seriously, and Brother Fang was warm and polite to him, so the courtesy should definitely not be less.

After chatting about Yan Bugui, Yao Weimin walked outside to smoke because he was holding a lit cigarette in his hand.

Soon, Brother Fang, who quickly dealt with the work at hand, also followed, lit a cigarette for himself, and came to the front with a smile on his face.

Brother Fang's full name is Fang Jianye, who is about the same age as Wang Genshu who took Yao Weimin before, and belongs to the old man in the station.

"Wei Min, when the comrades sent abroad come back in a few days, the station will be promoted again, I guess with your ability, you will definitely not run this time!"

There was a touch of envy in his smile, because he had to take care of the seriously ill elderly at home, and he had never been able to express himself at work, so he had not been mixed with the position of an officer, and he would inevitably feel a little lost.

"Brother Fang, don't say that, I haven't worked in our station for a long time now, and the station will definitely not have me, but Brother Fang, you have been serving the station for several years and working hard, I think this opportunity is quite big!"

Yao Weimin waved his hand and said politely with the same smile.

"I can't do it, I know my own situation best, and the stationmaster can help me allocate a position that doesn't require travel, I'm already very grateful, to say that this officer position, with my performance is still far behind!"

Fang Jianye shook his head busily, but the smile on his face was accompanied by a hint of gratitude for being recognized, and his gaze at Yao Weimin became more cordial.

The two smoked cigarettes and chatted about other stations, and after a few minutes, they returned to the purchasing station.

Yao Weimin didn't leave immediately, since he had come here, he felt that he needed to meet Xiao Hongying and say hello, but he only knocked on the door, and Fang Jianye, who was sitting in the distance, told him that Stationmaster Xiao had gone to the head office for a meeting and was not in the office.

"Comrades are busy, I'll go first!" Yao Weimin didn't stay long, waved to his colleagues in the station, and left the purchasing station.

After eating at a restaurant at noon, he went to the construction site outside the city in the afternoon, declined Yang Yuejin's request to drink together in the evening, and returned to the city at the end of the day.

As soon as I arrived at the gate of my community, I saw Yan Bugui sweating profusely on a bicycle from a distance, and after seeing Yao Weimin, he smiled and raised his hand to greet:

"Weimin, wait for me!"

As he spoke, the man had already come closer, took a breath and continued:

"Wei Min, the three masters came here today to invite you to my house for a banquet, now, you are tired to do the three masters a favor, let's go and call the old brother in the well together, okay?"

"Hey, this is a good thing, it's rare for the three masters to be invited to a banquet, I have to cooperate, haha......

Yao Weimin has been leisurely and relaxed recently, and he is also idle when he is idle, so he did not refuse Yan Bugui's kindness.

"Okay, then let's wait for your daughter-in-law to come back, let her go to my house to have tea with my daughter-in-law for a while and wait, let's go and invite Brother Jing, okay?"

Yan Bugui pushed his glasses and suggested with a smile.

Yao Wei

The people nodded, and were about to invite Yan Bugui home to sit for a while, when he saw Shen Wenli's figure already appearing on the street not far away.

After explaining the situation to Shen Wenli, Yao Weimin took Yan Bugui to Jing Shiyuan's house, followed by Yao Weimin, Jing Shiyuan naturally would not refuse, gladly agreed to the banquet, and specially found two bottles of good wine from home and put them in the basket, and the three of them returned to the courtyard together.

When they came to Yan Bugui's house, the three mothers had already made tea, and they were extremely enthusiastic and polite to Jing Shiyuan's arrival.

Obviously, Yan Bugui had already told the three mothers about Jing Shiyuan's connections and background, so the latter's attitude would be diametrically opposite to the last time Yao Weimin sat down for tea.

At this time, after pouring tea, I quickly went out to the dining shed to stir-fry.

"Wei Min, the third master really has to thank you, guess what? Hey, your purchasing station is really here, it doesn't take much trouble at all, and you can settle it on the spot, that's called a refreshing!"

After Yan Bugui gave up his seat, his face was full of joy, and he took the lead in saying gratefully to Yao Weimin.
