"I looked like a man from the old housing estate, I had seen him in the market before, but I didn't know his name. Liu Dongju hesitantly told Liu Xing what she knew.

"It's from the old housing village!" Liu Xing breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, and he didn't think much about it at the moment: "Then don't worry about him, but if you come to our house to buy shoes in the future, you can't buy them for one person at a time, so that others won't be able to buy them." ”

It's not that he wants to stock up on Qiju, but when he makes shoes out of old tires and sells them for money, he also wants to improve the shoe conditions of the people in the surrounding villages.

One last thought.

This weird feeling is that I'm afraid that someone will see the business opportunities in it.

In the end, it is sold at a high price in other places.

This is the opposite of his original intention.

Not to mention that there is no such possibility, after all, shoes are a high-priced commodity these days, and money may not be able to buy them. However, since the eldest sister knows this strange middle-aged man, there should be no such possibility.

Thinking of this, Liu Xing smiled, he knew that Ding Lan and Niu Lianfang hadn't eaten breakfast yet, and after explaining a few words to his mother and eldest sister, he took it and walked towards the kitchen.

In the kitchen, there is still unfinished sweet potato porridge, exuding bursts of residual warmth and a faint fragrance.

Liu Xing didn't invite Ding Lan and Niu Lianfang to eat leftovers, but took out more than a dozen white glutinous rice cakes from the woven bag on the wall: "There is nothing else to eat at home, just count this glutinous rice cake and sweet potato as the most, do you eat it?"

After speaking, he raised the glutinous rice in his hand.

Glutinous rice is made from glutinous rice.

It is rare to bake it on barbed wire.

Of course, it can also be fried in oil.

But Liu Xing didn't want to do that.

After all, it's not good to eat too greasy early in the morning.

However, Ding Lan and Niu Lianfang didn't care so much at all, and Niu Lianfang picked up the chopsticks in the cupboard: "What kind of glutinous rice to bake! I'll just eat a bowl of sweet potato porridge, such a delicious breakfast can't be eaten at home!"

"Yes, let's just eat sweet potato porridge. Ding Lan then took out the dishes and chopsticks from the cupboard.

Maybe they were really hungry, maybe they really didn't treat Liu Xing as an outsider.

In a word, they scooped up a bowl of sweet potato porridge and ate it casually while sitting at the kitchen door.

Liu Xing looked at it and smiled, he saw that the sweet potato porridge in the pot might not be enough, so he made a fire and roasted the glutinous rice dumplings.

In order to prevent the glutinous rice from sticking to the barbed wire, he specially brushed some vegetable oil on the barbed wire.

After a while, the special aroma of the roasted glutinous rice cake wafted out.

Niu Lianfang, who originally felt that he had eaten enough, sniffed his nose and hurriedly ran to the stove: "My God! Why didn't I eat glutinous rice dumplings so fragrant at home!"

"That's fried in your home oil, isn't it? Liu Xing replied.

There is a big difference between frying and roasting.

First of all, it is easy to get tired of frying, and you can't eat a few of them.

If you eat it baked, it is not sticky, greasy, crispy and delicious, and it has the taste of eating a pot.

If you put a little sugar on it, it's a delicious thing in the world.

"Yes, is it cooked? Niu Lianfang was a little impatient.

Obviously, she is also an authentic foodie.

I saw that there was something delicious, and I didn't even know what it was called reserved.

Of course, there is no need to be reserved in front of Liu Xing, after all, they regard Liu Xing as a younger brother.

"Wait a minute, it'll be fine right away!" Liu Xing saw that Ding Lan was also staring at the glutinous rice on the barbed wire, and hurriedly took out a few more from the woven bag.

After all, this thing is not a regular grain, and one or two are not enough.

After a few moments, the first batch of six glutinous rice cakes was baked.

These six glutinous rice dumplings are tender inside and charred on the outside, golden in color, and also exude a faint fragrance of glutinous rice.

Liu Xing picked up one with chopsticks and put it in Niu Lianfang's bowl: "You eat slowly, this freshly baked one is very hot." ”

"Yes, yes. Niu Lianfang picked it up with chopsticks and ate it.

The first bite was indeed hot, but in the second bite, she fell in love with the taste of the grilled glutinous cake, and the satisfaction of a foodie could not be described in words.

Ding Lan saw that Niu Lianfang ate so deliciously, so he hurriedly picked one up and put it in his bowl, and after blowing and tasting the taste, he hurriedly sandwiched the remaining ones into the bowl.

This made Niu Lianfang cry and laugh a little: "It's okay if you leave me one, I haven't eaten such delicious glutinous rice dumplings for a long time." ”

"I won't give it to you. Ding Lan smiled lightly and ran out of the kitchen with her rice bowl.

Niu Lianfang didn't get angry, but helped Liu Xing roast the glutinous rice dumplings: "How many glutinous rice pies do you have at home! If you have more, I'll buy some and eat them later, okay?"

If you like to eat, I'll give you dozens later. Liu Xing replied casually.

"Okay!" Niu Lianfang didn't pretend to Liu Xing.

After all, in the countryside, a few glutinous rice cakes are really not worth much.

If you give Liu Xing money, you will look down on Liu Xing.

Because I saw Liu Xing making shoes before, but he made a lot of money.

I'm afraid that a day's income is higher than a month's worth of a city bureau police officer.

"Liu Xing, I also want dozens of glutinous rice cakes to take back to eat, don't be favoritous. Ding Lan entered the kitchen with a rice bowl and reminded him seriously.

"Yes, my sister. Liu Xing replied.

"Then you hurry up and roast, I still want to eat a few. Ding Lan saw that the fire in the earthen stove was a little small, so he hurriedly put down the dishes and chopsticks to help add firewood.

Liu Xing smiled, rolled up his sleeves and buried himself in baking glutinous rice cakes.

Niu Lianfang looked at the time on his watch: "Ding Lan, you said that Director Wu is going to Laowu Village to handle the case, when can he come to Liu Xing to pick us up?"

"How do I know this, Director Wu is your immediate boss, not mine. Ding Lan, who was sitting on a small stool, looked back.

"Isn't your immediate boss here too?" the smile on Niu Lianfang's face was put away at this time.

Obviously, the case that Director Wu came to Laowu Village to handle this time is not simple.

Otherwise, the Industrial and Commercial Bureau would never have joined hands with Director Wu to come to Laowu Village.

Liu Xing heard the voice, he didn't want to ask more at first, after all, this matter had nothing to do with him.

But after thinking about it, I couldn't help but ask: "Is there anything big going on in the old housing village? Is it worth Director Wu's personal action?"

Niu Lianfang and Ding Lan glanced at each other, and after hesitating for a moment, they said: "It's okay to tell you, we have received a report from the masses that the supply and marketing cooperatives in Laowu Village are buying and selling counterfeit pesticides and fertilizers, and they are currently investigating and collecting evidence." ”

"That's it!" Liu Xing nodded slowly.

Pesticides and chemical fertilizers were important materials in the 80s, which were related to the clothing and food of millions of people, and they really deserve attention.

It's just that it stands to reason that no one should be able to manufacture fake pesticides and fertilizers in the eighties, which suddenly said that there were fakes, and they also endangered the interests of the people, to be honest, it was really unexpected.

"That's right. How did you two come to me for such an important matter? After Liu Xing came back to his senses, he asked the doubts in his heart.

"The car broke down in the middle of the road and we had to get down. Niu Lianfang explained the reason: "In addition, we investigated and collected evidence and were assigned to Saltpeter Village, so we came to you to eat and drink." ”

"Not bad. Ding Lan smiled lightly and nodded.

I didn't want to come, but I really didn't have a place to go, and I didn't have any acquaintances.

So I can only come to find the only 'younger brother' Liu Xing I know.

"I don't understand, is it meaningful for you to investigate and collect evidence like this?" Liu Xing couldn't help but complain: "When the time comes, let the boss of the Laowu Village Supply and Marketing Cooperatives hide the fake pesticides and fertilizers, then you won't go in vain." ”

"No! Niu Lianfang said seriously: "After all, according to the informant's clues, the supply and marketing cooperatives of this old house village have been buying and selling fake pesticides and fertilizers for several years, as long as we find fake pesticides and fertilizers in the homes of villagers, the boss of the old house village supply and marketing cooperatives will definitely not escape." ”

"I mean, you might as well go directly to the supply and marketing cooperatives in the old housing village to check!" Liu Xing proposed.

Pesticides and fertilizers are generally not left in the homes of villagers for too long, because they will decompose when wet.

Maybe in a few decades, farmers don't care at all, but in the eighties, such a thing would never be allowed, because pesticides and fertilizers were too expensive and expensive, and they were obtained according to indicators + tickets + cash, and other channels were not available at all.

This is why there was such a profession as picking up dog poop in the countryside in the seventies and eighties.

The reason for this is that many farmers cannot afford pesticides and fertilizers.

"The supply and marketing cooperatives in the old housing village have been investigated a long time ago, and there is no evidence at all, and this time it is just going through the motions. Niu Lianfang replied helplessly.

"Moreover, the supply and marketing cooperatives are state-owned enterprises, and there are many related households following them, so it is even more difficult for us to go to the supply and marketing cooperatives to investigate and collect evidence. Ding Lan added.

"That's right. Liu Xing had to admit it.

Supply and marketing cooperatives were the hottest state-owned enterprises in the seventies and eighties, and I don't know how many people they fed.

If anyone moves the interests of the supply and marketing cooperatives, there will definitely be many people who stand up to block it.

In other words, this time Director Wu went to the old housing village to investigate and collect evidence, but I am afraid that it will be in vain.

No wonder Ding Lan and Niu Lianfang would quit halfway to find him, it turned out that they knew the inside story.
