Chapter 125: I'll Treat You to Pay the Bill
After the driver's heat stroke incident, Director Fang was much more cautious, and after a little consideration, he adopted Liu Xinyu's suggestion.
Four people in a car found a hotel and stayed.
The hostel is small and generally clean and meals are provided.
Although it was almost eight o'clock when Liu Xinyu and the others checked in, there were still fresh meals available.
This meal said that Liu Xinyu was a treat, but it was Zhang Honglianghui's account.
Liu Xinyu was not polite to Zhang Hongliang, but just made a note in the small notebook.
When I get home, I have to settle the accounts, and then I can calculate them together.
Running long distances in a truck was more tiring than expected, and after eating and making an appointment to travel the next day, Liu Xinyu returned to the room.
I hurriedly took a shower, changed into dry pajamas, and fell asleep before my hair dried.
Although I was so tired that I fell asleep, I still got up early the next day.
When Liu Xinyu came out to wash, the whole hotel was quiet.
However, not long after arriving at the water room, Zhang Hongliang also came to the water room to wash, and then the factory director and the driver also got up.
Breakfast is still the way I treat you and pay the bills.
There was a gas station when I came out of the hotel, so I simply filled up the fuel tank before leaving, and it was still Zhang Hongliang who paid the bill.
Director Fang gave Zhang Hongliang a thumbs up.
Liu Xinyu couldn't help but roll her eyes in her heart.
In addition to last night's meal, the accommodation fee for the hotel, today's meal and the gas fee all came from her, otherwise where would Zhang Hongliang have so much money to pay both accommodation and gas?
However, in this era, the cost of accommodation and meals is not expensive, and the cost of fuel is relatively expensive.
Continuing the previous day's journey south, I finally arrived safely at the Minqin Brigade at around 4 p.m.
Originally, Liu Xinyu was a little worried that the truck would not be able to drive at the door of the house, but when he entered the village, he found that the village had actually built a road, so the truck drove all the way to the yard of Liu Xinyu's house.
Such a large truck entered the village, which immediately attracted the attention of the whole village.
Although it is in the period of "double robbery", because the fields have been contracted to the households, there is no longer the tense and lively atmosphere of "double robbery" before, but there are more villagers watching the excitement.
The rice in Liu's field has not yet been opened, except for Liu Qingsong and his wife, who went to work in the field, all the other people are in Liu Xinyu's house.
Hearing the sound of the car outside, Liu Xinyao, who was active and lively by nature, stretched out his head to look, just in time to see Liu Xinyu getting off the truck, and hurriedly turned around and shouted, "Milk, my sister Xinyu is back!" I'm coming back in a big truck!"
With his shouting, the Hulala family all ran out.
"Ouch, where is this big truck? Come into the house and rest, it's a hot day. Old man, hurry up and open a melon hanging in a well to relieve everyone's heat." Chen Zhaodi took the luggage that Liu Xinyu was carrying, and at the same time instructed Liu Houxing, who was looking at Liu Xinyu and being happy.
"Okay, okay, I'll go now, Xinyu, hurry up and invite the guests to sit in the room." Saying that, Liu Houxing turned around and was about to cut melons.
Liu Xinyu glanced at Director Fang, and seeing that he had no objection, he smiled and led Director Fang and the driver to the house.
After walking a few steps, he stopped and looked back at Zhang Hongliang and said, "Brother Zhang, will you go home first or come to my house first?"
Zhang Hongliang hesitated slightly, and just saw Zhang Hongyun who came to see the excitement, so he handed over the luggage in his hand to Zhang Hongyun and explained: "You send the luggage home first, I still have some things to do, go back later."
"Big brother, who are those two people?" Zhang Hongyun pointed to Liu Xinyu's house and asked.
Zhang Hongliang also glanced at the hall of Liu Xinyu's house, and just saw Liu Xinyu sticking his head out of the hall and beckoning to him, knowing that something must be wrong, he hurriedly patted Zhang Hongyun's head and said, "Guests from the capital. If you want to know anything, I'll talk about it when I get home."
Zhang Hongyun wanted to follow up and take a look, but after looking at the luggage in her hand, she couldn't talk about it, so she could only go home first.
When Zhang Hongliang walked into the hall, he happened to hear Liu Xinyu persuading Director Fang: "Director Fang, it's past three o'clock now, wait."
After unloading, it has to be more than four o'clock and five o'clock. Although it gets dark late in the summer, it is impossible to get to Shen before dark. I suggest that you rest here for the night, and leave early tomorrow morning, and arrive in Shenshi just in time for work, so that you will not be delayed, and it will be safe."
Zhang Hongliang nodded hurriedly: "Director Fang, Xinyu is right, it's better to be late than early, although the conditions in the village are poor, you should still be able to live."
Chen Zhaodi and Liu Houxing also hurriedly agreed, and the driver obviously didn't want to drive a night train, and finally Director Fang was persuaded by everyone.
Since I decided to stay overnight, I was in no hurry to unload the goods.
Everyone stopped eating melons, and Liu Houxing accompanied Director Fang and the driver to chat some gossip.
Although most of them are chickens and ducks, they are very lively.
Liu Xinyu and Zhang Hongliang discussed the issue of unloading with Chen Zhaodi.
Hearing that Liu Xinyu bought nearly forty sewing machines and sewing machine spare parts at once, Chen Zhaodi was stunned: "What is the purpose of buying so many sewing machine spare parts. You can't eat or wear anything!"
"Milk, these are just spare parts, and when they are assembled, they are sewing machines and seaming machines. I want to set up a sewing factory in the village, where I can make schoolbags and quilts. There's no rush in this matter, I'll tell my grandmother slowly when I'm free, now I'll get my second uncle and them back first, and unload the goods." Liu Xinyu briefly explained his thoughts.
Chen Zhaodi hurriedly called Liu Xinyao and asked him to hurry up to the field to call Liu Qingsong and his wife back.
Zhang Hongliang thought for a while and said, "That's it, I'll go home and call my brother to come and unload the car together."
Chen Zhaodi shook her head and said, "Your family has already started cutting rice today, where is your brother free, so let's call someone to unload the car." You go to the hall to talk to the guests, where can the guests understand your master's words?"
Liu Xinyu thought about it and felt that this was okay, what is the matter with the countrymen, it is basically like this, you help me today, and I will help you tomorrow, but you don't need to care too much.
However, they have basically not eaten a delicious meal in the past two days, and when they get home, they have to invite someone to have a good meal.
Fish and shrimp can be caught in the river temporarily, chickens should be at home, but pigs, sheep and beef should have no choice.
Well, the school is on vacation, there should be yellow eels at home, and there are more vegetarian dishes in this season, so if you think about it, there is nothing without pigs, sheep and beef.
So Liu Xinyu looked at Chen Zhaodi and asked, "Milk, you shouldn't be able to buy meat now, let's kill a chicken for hospitality today."
As he was talking, Liu Qingsong hurriedly ran back with a hoe, so Chen Zhaodi said, "You and Hong Liang are going to accompany the guests, and I will cook dinner with your second aunt." Don't worry, I won't disgrace you! Leave the unloading to your second uncle."
"Xinyu, you just go and accompany the guests, and leave the unloading to me." Liu Qingsong put down his hoe, rolled up his sleeves and walked out, and when he got out of the yard, he said, "Whoever is free, come and help unload the goods."
Soon the courtyard was bustling with activity.
Liu Xinyu stood in the courtyard and watched for a while, and the men, under the command of Liu Qingsong, unloaded the goods in an orderly manner and moved them to the designated place to be placed neatly.
It is true that there is nothing between her and Zhang Hongliang here, Liu Xinyu pulled Zhang Hongliang, and the two went back to the hall to talk to Director Fang.
