Chu Tianshu appeased Xie Ningzi, then took her to buy a watermelon to eat, and took her to the Chiyang Iron and Steel Factory.

The workers had a day off today because it was the Yuanwang Festival, but most of the workers did not leave the factory.

On the contrary, because the factory provides three meals a day for free, most of the workers accumulate here to rest.

On weekdays, there is no time and space for everyone to rest.

Seeing them today, Xie Ningzi didn't dislike them much, but was just curious: "Are these people all workers in your factory?" ”

"Yes." Chu Tianshu nodded: "They helped me before." ”

"Even skateboards and roller skates, they helped me a lot."

"That'...... Why don't you invite them to eat a watermelon together? Xie Ningzi thought for a while: "Anyway, I don't think watermelon is very expensive." ”

"There are a total of 667 workers in the factory, and if you want to invite them to eat watermelons, you will have to buy 223 watermelons." Chu Tianshu half-jokingly: "But the watermelon we just bought is three cents and nine cents." ”

"According to four cents, more than 200 watermelons are only more than eight yuan." Xie Ningzi nodded: "What do you think?" ”

"I think it's good." Chu Tianshu nodded, very happy: "It's better like this, since you want to invite everyone to eat watermelon, why don't you buy something else by the way, let's talk and celebrate?" ”

"What to buy?" Xie Ningzi asked.

"Let's buy some beer." Chu Tianshu smiled and explained: "Because the workers have to work and work, the work intensity is relatively high, and the normal body is relatively tired. ”

"Because of this, everyone usually likes to drink some wine to relieve fatigue."

"As for beer, because it tastes really good, and because it is cheap, poor workers prefer it."

"This thing is one of the few expendables for us and for them."

"Is that so?" Xie Ningzi looked at Chu Tianshu a little timidly: "Are you as tired as them?" ”

"I'm also a worker, and I used to be a slave in King Chen's mansion, so there's not much difference between them."

"Then ......" Xie Ningzi's eyes turned tactfully: "Because you have endured hardships, you want to help them and give them some good life?" ”

"There's that factor." Chu Tianshu did not deny it or admit it.

"Then go buy it." Xie Ningzi smiled: "It's good if you like it." ”

"If you're willing to agree, of course it's best." Chu Tianshu smiled and twisted her face slightly.

Chu Tianshu ordered a few workers to follow him, and first went to the tavern they frequented and asked for more than 200 catties of beer.

Such an idea of beer is obviously not enough for more than 600 people to drink.

But it doesn't matter, what Chu Tianshu needs is to keep going in and out.

He called the workers to bring the beer back, and then said loudly in the tavern: "Today, the people in our factory are happy and happy, you move the beer back first, I will go to see the watermelon, today, everyone must eat watermelon!" ”

"Chu Gong is generous!"

The workers were so happy that they carried the beer kegs back.

The guys in the tavern also remembered Chu Tianshu because of this.

Although, it's not enough.

Yuanwang's Day is a night-type festival.

Lanterns, lantern riddles, and little couples drilling into the grove are all after nightfall.

In the Yuanwang Festival, the most lively is the area around Xun Street.

There are not many high-ranking officials and nobles here, but there are many rich families, and there are not so many rules, and there are many women and children.

When there are more women, there are more men, and there have always been some traffickers, so there will be a lot of security at night, and local men will also spontaneously form patrols.

At this time, even if it is safe, there is also some different kind of fun.

All this was told to Chu Tianshu by Xie Ningzi in order to play with Chu Tianshu at night.

Chu Tianshu has no objection to playing.

But before we go playing, there are a few more things to do.

He went to the vicinity of the Song Wangfu that he saw when he was shopping with Xie Ningzi before, and found a few fruit shops from there, repeatedly comparing the prices of the watermelons sold there.

Walk all the way, ask all the way, ask to Chen Wangfu.

The two palaces are not close to each other.

In the middle is the avenue, no matter how you go, you can probably walk through.

Chu Tianshu finally compared repeatedly, said that he wanted a lot of watermelons, and bargained repeatedly, and finally chose a fruit store and bought watermelons.

By the time he returned to the factory, Xie Ningzi had already started chatting with the workers.

It's all about Chu Tianshu.

She seemed to be eager to know about Chu Tianshu.

However, the workers are not very familiar with Chu Tianshu.

It's just that everyone knows that Chu Tianshu is good to everyone, so for Chu Tianshu, he is also mostly maintained, saying that he has a good heart and ability.

In short, I choose good things to say.

Xie Ningzi listened to their bragging, and although she knew in her heart that a lot of content was watery, she still couldn't help but be happy.

As soon as she was happy, the workers had a drink to drink.

Everyone drank wine, some of them were shallow, and after drinking some beer, they felt fluttery, so they started singing.

That is, when many people started singing, Chu Tianshu bought watermelons and came back.

"Try some beer?" Chu Tianshu poured a glass of beer and tasted it himself, always feeling almost meaningful.

What's the difference?

It's about a little bit of ice.

Xie Ningzi saw Chu Tianshu take the beer he had drunk and handed it over, he was angry and ashamed, so he couldn't help but take a sip: "It tastes weird." ”

"Is it weird?" Chu Tianshu smiled: "The taste of beer, among all kinds of alcohol, should be considered relatively good." ”

As he spoke, he took another sip: "Sure enough, the beer should still be a little icy, so it's comfortable to drink." ”

Compared with the memories of my previous life, eating barbecue and drinking cold beer at a food stall on the street, discussing theory and practice with like-minded friends, today's beer is indeed almost meaningless.

But if you can't go back, Chu Tianshu won't be too nostalgic.

After a few drinks, the workers began to divide the watermelons, and the beer was already drunk.

Chu Tianshu took the initiative to kiss Xie Ningzi, and then went out to buy beer.

Under the moistening of the beer, Xie Ningzi's whole person seemed to be a little confused, and he was kissed by Chu Tianshu, but he didn't react, but his face was as red as he was, and the whole person sat in place, his body shook slightly, and his head was like a chicken pecking rice, knocking and knocking, as if he would fall down in the next moment.

Chu Tianshu went to buy beer and came back, and the time had already turned to half past five in the afternoon.

The sun sets at seven o'clock in the summer of the big clouds.

Chu Tianshu bought beer and came back, and beckoned the workers to drink.

The workers were very happy, singing and dancing.

After all, they seldom drink as openly as they do today.

The more they drank, the happier they became, and they were no longer restrained.

So the electric lights were lit in advance, and everyone began to sing and dance under the lights.

Among the more than 70 small workers, there are more than a dozen girls, who know some dance, and they come out one by one to dance with the singing.

A moment of heartiness.
