Because he didn't have time to go home, Yang Liufang set off with his master in his father's clothes. Walking in the train station, Yang Liufang could feel the surprised gaze of others. A young man under the age of nineteen wears a set of old-fashioned clothes worn by an elderly man in his 60s, which is indeed a bit nondescript. But at the moment, he didn't care too much, he firmly held his bag, and walked forward side by side with the master, so that they could take care of each other.

There were fewer passengers heading to the northwest in November, and the train station was not as crowded as Yang Liufang's first trip to Xizhou, and there were no big travel bags, so they easily boarded the train. When he found his own bunk, it turned out that this time he was on the bunk with the master, and he was afraid that it would be inconvenient to climb high and low, so he let the master sleep in the lower bunk. Put away two bags with huge sums of money and sit together on the lower bunk and chat.

"Master, the first time I took the train, I was here, and I didn't have to walk at all, I was squeezed into the train. Ah Fu, yes is Li Tongfu, he didn't squeeze up at all, in order to protect the goods, I don't know how many feet he was stepped on. ”

"Alas, Master knows that it is not easy to go out, but I didn't expect it to be so difficult, it was Master who harmed you."

"Whatever the master says, the parents discipline their children, of course, the starting point is good." Yang Liufang comforted the master.

"How's Ah Fu?"

"Master, he is very good, in the first year, he went to the countryside for me to sell goods, and after contracting the counter of the supply and marketing cooperative, he managed the stall of the supply and marketing cooperatives in the city, after all, he was the godson of my father and aunt, and he really knew how to worry. Master, he asked us to arrange the furniture hall according to the life scene, and it was convenient for customers to buy, which greatly improved the sales of furniture in our factory. ”

"Oh, you young people are well-informed and have a lot of ideas."

"That's also indispensable for the old man's guidance. Master, please come this time, in addition to safety considerations, I also want you to check it, I want you to accept two apprentices, the factory is getting smoother and smoother now, I can't be busy with it alone, once I get busy, I can't leave the factory at all, two of them have been working in the factory for two years, I think it's quite smart, but I have to ask you to check again. ”

"Ah Fang, you have grown up, Master is old, you are better than Master, Master is happy." The two chatted, the flight attendant pushed a small cart to sell eggs and chicken leg bread and milk, Yang Liufang bought two servings, and ate with the master, with the master in front of him, Yang Liufang felt very down-to-earth.

After two days and two nights, they arrived at Xizhou Station, and the two walked out of the station, in order to reduce unnecessary trouble, he took Master through the square, and without having time to eat, he went straight to the wholesale market and went to Boss Chen's stall.

"Brother Chen."

"Brother Xiao Yang, you're back! I heard Ah Fu say that you went home to sell your ancestral home? You say you're impulsive. Lao Zhou also regretted his death, and he shouldn't have fallen into the well at this time. ”

"Alas, Brother Chen, everyone has difficult times. My master has already helped me out of the money matter. This is my Master. ”

"Hello uncle, I'm Chen Xinfa, Ruian. Just call me Xiao Chen. ”

"Oh, hello, thank you for taking care of my Ah Fang."

"No, uncle, it's his own efforts, and we're all doing business with Ah Fang now."

"You are too modest, Ah Fangxiao, please help more in the future."

"Uncle, don't worry. We take care of each other. ”

"Brother Chen, I brought the money back, you call Brother Zhou back, you can also be a witness, I will withdraw his shares. I settled the payment for the goods to him. ”

"Okay, I'll go over now, and you can help me look at the stall."

After a while, Boss Chen came over with Boss Zhou.

"I'm sorry, brother, look, this is a trouble, I didn't expect to force you to sell your ancestral home, but I really can't help it."

"It's okay, Brother Zhou, who has no trouble in the family, this time my master helped us solve it. It's 50000, you click. Yang Liufang handed 5 plates of brand-new RMB from the master's hand to Boss Zhou, and Boss Zhou began to skillfully count the money.

"No problem."

"Then you can help me sign a receipt stating the withdrawal of shares and the payment of the goods in October 1988."

"Okay, thank you Ah Fang. If there are investment opportunities in the future, they will definitely continue to take me with them. ”

"Don't worry." Yang Liufang said generously.

"Brother Chen, you still have 13,200 on your side, Master, you can point it out." Yang Liufang waited for the master to finish counting the money, took it and handed it to Boss Chen. "Brother Chen, you're ordering."

"Hasn't Uncle already ordered it!"

"Then let's order it, everyone can rest assured."

Boss Chen quickly counted the money and said, "No problem." ”

"Then you can also sign a receipt for me, indicating that the payment for the goods has been settled in October."

"Okay."

After doing this, Yang Liufang instantly calmed down a lot, and quickly collapsed like a tight spring. He went to Boss Zhou's to buy a new set of work clothes, and directly changed his father's clothes at the stall and put them away. Return to Boss Chen's booth and leave with Master. Originally, Boss Chen said that he would give him and Master a pick-up, but Yang Liufang couldn't wait, after all, he was still a little worried after leaving the factory for so many days.

This time he didn't take the bus, but went to find Zhang Feng's car not far away to send him back, the master is older, not as young as he was. After a bumpy ride, he didn't want Master to be too tired. He and Master sat in Zhang Feng's car, and after a brief introduction, asked Zhang Feng to take them to the supply and marketing cooperatives first.

Li Tongfu, who was busy, looked at the sixth road and saw Yang Liufang coming over with an old man, and hurriedly came over to say hello.

"Hello uncle, why are you here?"

"Ah Fu, hello, Ah Fang is worried that it is not safe for a person to bring so much money, so he asked me to accompany him."

"Brother, you're back. But I'm worried to death. ”

At this time, Qin Jiajun, Wang Shan, and Yanhua also came over to say hello and say hello to the master.

"It's okay, brother, the matter is done, my master has solved it. Boss Zhou's shares have been withdrawn, you just need to go back and tear up the shareholding contract, and their payment has been settled. There are more than 17,000 here, leaving you with 10,000 turnarounds. If you can move the public account, you can move the public account, and it is really impossible to use this money again, because we don't know when the notice will be executed. ”

"Well, got it. You haven't eaten yet, have you? Let's eat first. ”

"Don't delay business, just eat a bowl of noodles, let's go back to the factory." There's nothing going on in the factory these days, right? ”

"No, it's just that you don't have to make big pieces of furniture, I'll ask them to make some small stools, small dining tables and so on, that's all. It's selling, but it's not going well, and there's less demand for this kind of furniture in the city. ”

"Oh, if you have a job, let's go, let's go eat noodles first."

"Yanhua, Brother Qin, Wang Shan, you are in the store, you can't do without people, I'll take my uncle to eat a bowl of noodles, and I'll bring you back for lunch." After speaking, he took Yang Liufang, his master and Zhang Feng, and the four of them went to the niutou noodle restaurant next to the supply and marketing cooperative, and asked for four bowls of meat and egg Shuangfei beef noodles. The shopkeeper saw that it was Li Tongfu, and knew that this was the owner of the hardware store department of the supply and marketing cooperative, and greeted them very warmly, and the beef added was obviously more than that for others.

"Uncle, noodles are the main dishes here, and beef noodles are the specialty here, you try them first, I don't know if you are used to it."

"Oh, I'll try it first." Master took a sip of soup and ate a mouthful of noodles. "Well, yes, the soup is very fresh, and the noodles are very strong."

"Master, do you eat raw garlic? They say that they don't eat garlic when they eat noodles, and the fragrance is less than half. ”

"Come on, I'll try." Yang Liufang handed the master a clove of garlic that he had picked, and the master ate it without feeling any discomfort.

"Brother, Brother Feng, have any of you gone to deliver food to the factory in Yantan in the past two days? If not, let's go and bring it back. ”

"I've sent it, Brother Qin went yesterday."

"Oh, that's good."

After the four of them finished eating noodles, Li Tongfu packed three more bowls and prepared to take them back to the store. Yang Liufang and Master took Zhang Feng's car directly back to the factory.

The car passed through Yantan and the oil field, and Yang Liufang introduced it to the master. After the three-way intersection, you will arrive at their image project, a wide road leading to the village on both sides of the village planted with chopped willows.

"Master, this is a big road that the head of the stone village took the whole village to build in order to introduce our factory, and the trees on both sides of the saplings bought by our factory were given to the village, and they will be bought back when they are finished in the future. Now that the leaves have fallen, it is especially good when the trees are shady, and the provincial leaders have praised it when they see it. ”

"Don't forget your roots, Ah Fang, this is also what Master values about you, this tree is a willow tree."

"Yes, Master, they call it chopping willow here, and legend has it that this kind of tree was brought back by Zuo Zongtang when he recovered Xinjiang. Because the wind and sand here are very strong, in order to grow the trunk of the tree, and at the same time to prevent the strong wind from blowing the tree off, at this time of year, the branches have to be cut down, and the thick ones are made into rafters, shovel handles, thin baskets, fences, and so on. ”

Before the car entered the village, I saw the factory building of the Liufang woodworking factory from a distance, which is located at the entrance of the village, a large area, which looks very spectacular. In particular, there is a circle of willow trees planted around the factory, and although the leaves have fallen now, the willow trees with thick bowls are guarding the place like guards.

When I arrived at the door of the factory, Yang Liufang knocked on the door, and the workers came to open the door.

"Boss Yang? The owner is back. ”

"When the workers heard the shouting, they stopped and came to greet them."

"Boss Yang, what are you doing in the past few days?"

"Boss Yang, you are not saturated when you are not in Emeng (us), and you still get a salary, and you can't bear it." Everybody's gossiping. Entering the courtyard, Yang Liufang motioned for everyone to calm down and began to introduce.

"Brothers, this is my master, come, Daga, Xiaoga, you should be called master."

"Hello master."

"Hello, it's all a family, don't be formal."

"Master, this is our spraying worker, and he was also the first apprentice to enter the factory. They were there when our factory was still a workshop. ”

"Shi Yong, Brother Shi Fang, haven't you always wanted to learn carpentry from me? I didn't confiscate you because you were older than me, and I didn't dare to say it without my master's consent. This time, my master is here, let him test you tomorrow, and if you perform well, let him testify, and I will take you as an apprentice. ”

"Don't worry, boss."

"Master, let's fry a few side dishes in the evening, and you can accompany my master to have a few drinks. Brother Shi Yong, you go and call the village chief Shi to come and accompany my master to dinner in the evening. Brother Feng, come back after dinner in the evening. Brother Shi Fang, I would like to burn my kang for a while, my master has just arrived, and it is too cold here, so I may not be used to it. ”

After Yang Liufang made the arrangement, he personally went to fetch water for the master, asked the master to wash up well, and found a set of clean work clothes for him to wear.
