Chapter 200: The Convenience of the Pit Stop
Around eight o'clock, they arrived at the town Gundam had mentioned.
From a distance, there are some low tiled houses. The town is a wide avenue that connects the roads of the country.
As soon as it is imported, it is a parking spot for car maintenance, water and refueling.
Do not add water before, if it is repaired, it also needs a letter of introduction from the driver and a certificate from the unit.
Lu Jingqiu didn't expect that this was a specially set up maintenance point above.
Next to the gas station is a state-run hotel.
Gundam heard the car refueling, and at this time, Yang Mingchao in the back also woke up.
After the two of them came down, they took Lu Jingqiu to a drainage pool next to the toilet to freshen up.
Lu Jingqiu had a general understanding, this gas station is still very big, and there is even a small guest house.
At this time, there are more than a dozen cars parked in it, and there are several stalls in the courtyard, selling steamed buns, cigarettes, and betel nuts.
Some of the drivers seemed to be talking about the things in the car together, and she saw a driver take out a handful of cotton from the car, and several other people looked at it and said something.
Lu Jingqiu looked at the car, it was full of cotton, the cotton was fluffy, but it was not impossible to compact, so when completing the team's tasks, it was not impossible to pull more goods.
"Second cousin, are they exchanging cotton?"
Lu Jingqiu saw Yang Ming coming over, and pointed over there.
"Yes, many drivers here pull different goods, there are many people will exchange goods with each other, buy and sell, you don't look at the outside before, you are not allowed to buy and sell, but here is different, as long as you enter here, standing allows you to do this, provided that the amount is not too large. Qiu'er, you can see if you need it here. You can buy some and go back."
Lu Jingqiu laughed at herself and said, "Second cousin, I only have a dozen yuan on me now."
Yang Mingchao was stunned and said, "Where's your money? Lost?"
Lu Jingqiu shook her head: "I bought a house."
"You wouldn't have spent thousands on that place, would you?"
was said by her second cousin to plant, what to do, she didn't want to criticize early in the morning.
Hurriedly looked at Gundam for help, Gundam smiled, pulled Yang Mingchao and said, "You take our sister to dinner, I'm watching the car here." Alas, have you noticed that the current lesbians are quite powerful. Charlene is, and so is Qiu'er."
Yang Mingchao raised his eyebrows and said, "Don't compare my sister with your younger brother and sister, your younger brother and sister are more scheming, and my sister is too naïve."
Gundam thought that Charlene was reluctant to buy the sheepskin, so she had to process it herself and do it herself.
He also has no way, although it is better than making money for Wei Jincheng, but it is also troublesome, and it also takes money to find someone to do it himself, and he has to check the craftsmanship well, if he does a bad one, more than a dozen yuan will be gone, and he has added a few sewing machines, and he has to contact the seller himself after he does it.
When he came, he had only sold more than 100 pieces, and some were not ready.
The point is that there are very few snow days in the winter in their western city, and it will not be like the northeast, so they need very thick cotton jackets and cotton pants.
It is not easy to sell more than 100 pieces.
Some time ago, Charlene mentioned to her that she would sell clothes to the troops, and directly asked her father to talk to the logistics minister about it.
Gundam directly refused, not to mention what kind of person he put in, just do it, the key is that the troops don't need it now.
I didn't want to ask for it before, but now I want to give it, and the price of paying it back is so high, isn't it obvious that his father is trying to get his own personal gain.
If his dad did, wouldn't it be clear that those people in the army would see the jokes?
can't let his father ruin the justice that he has maintained for most of his life because his clothes can't be sold.
Lu Jingqiu is also curious about this way of trading, she doesn't lack anything now, but she doesn't really need to buy it.
But the second cousin still gave her a hundred yuan, but Lu Jingqiu didn't ask for it: "Second cousin, I don't want to buy anything."
"Take it, we'll have to walk for more than a week. road
Maybe you come across something good, and you can buy it if you want to, and treat it as the pocket money that the second brother gives you."
As soon as he made a move, it was an ordinary person's salary for a few months, and Lu Jingqiu was moved, but he didn't really take the money to buy things.
followed my second cousin to the state-run restaurant next door honestly, and bought a portion of preserved egg and lean pork porridge and two servings of shredded chicken soup, as well as fried buns.
No wonder the fourth brother said that the food here is still eaten, this preserved egg and lean porridge and shredded chicken soup taste really good, not to mention the fried buns, all made of big meat, and squeaky oil.
They packed three portions directly and returned to the station to eat together.
The senior brother asked her if it was delicious.
Lu Jingqiu nodded repeatedly: "Their fried buns here are really good." In her previous life, she had also eaten fried buns: "Second cousin, fourth brother, although you can often eat food from all over the country on the road, it is also hard, after a few days, you can't sleep well, wash and change clothes or something, let alone think about it, no wonder the second cousin didn't eat it back, it's like running back from the famine."
Yang Mingchao smiled: "I don't want to get it, it's better to be a little rough outside."
Gundam on the side remembered something when he heard this, and laughed, almost squirting: "Haha, Qiu'er, let me tell you an interesting story about your second cousin."
Lu Jingqiu came and hurriedly asked, "What's the interesting thing?"
Gao said: "The year before last, we ran from Xicheng to the south, at that time we also just started to get out of the car not long ago, young man, natural acne scars pay attention to their own image, no matter where they go every day, you have to pick yourself up, you also know that your second cousin is handsome, it rained that day, we couldn't hurry, passing by a village, had to be in the village chief's house with the help. And guess what."...
Lu Jingqiu's eyes lit up: "No, the daughter of the village chief's family has taken a fancy to my second cousin."
Gundam was shocked, "I'm pretty good at guessing."
Lu Jingqiu smiled, isn't this the case for general development? Just as he was about to praise himself, Gundam said again, "But it's not his daughter, it's her sister, and it's..."
Before he finished speaking, he was pulled by Yang Mingchao and directly interrupted: "What nonsense, if you dare to say it, I will tell you about it."
As soon as Gao Gao heard this, he dared to say any more, and immediately shut up, but Lu Jingqiu, who heard half of it, scratched his heart and lungs, and asked after him, "Senior Brother Gao, how old is the village chief?"
Gundam glanced at Yang Mingchao and quickly gave her a four.
Lu Jingqiu sighed and said, "The village chief is forty?" Then her sister is not forty but thirty.
Lu Jingqiu, who seemed to know something terrible, looked at his second cousin.
Yang Mingchao knew that she would think of something messy, so he directly knocked her with chopsticks and said, "What kind of eyes are you?" After saying that, he glared at Gundam and said, "It's all your fault, what nonsense."
Gundam innocently said, "I could have made it clear, but you didn't let me say it."
Lu Jingqiu didn't give up and said, "Yes, yes, let's make it clear, Senior Brother Gao, what happened to that woman to my second cousin in the end."
As a result, after asking, he was pulled away by Yang Mingchao: "It's not much, what is your little head, what is it every day, say, did that kid in Nanzhou take you badly."
"Second cousin, I'm almost as bad as I am, how can he take me, I haven't finished the fried buns yet."
"What to eat, you are not allowed to eat today."
"No, it's rare for me to eat something so delicious."
