Chapter 338
Sit down.
"Drink some tea?" Yang Chuanwu asked.
Gu Siwei laughed and said, "When did you become so particular?"
After hearing this, Yang Chuanwu said: "I'm just being polite. My life here is not as strict as yours. If you ask me to drink, I have to ask your sister-in-law to boil water. If you don't drink, it will save me the trouble."
What else could Gu Siwei say, he could only say that he didn't want to drink anymore. And Yang Chuanwu was naturally not polite to him. He didn't ask his wife to boil water if he said he didn't want to drink. They all lived in the same village and were too particular about life.
A portion.
Yang Chuanwu said: "Siwei, this oil thing is really difficult to deal with. The few barrels in the village now are the ones I begged my grandpa and grandma to find. They were originally intended for our village to use, but now it seems that they can't be used here."
.
"I don't mean to blame you, I just said that this oil is really difficult to handle."
Halfway through the words, Yang Chuanwu realized that it would be meaningless if Gu Siwei thought that his words meant to blame him.
Gu Siwei knew that Yang Chuanwu didn't mean this, and the oil problem was indeed difficult to deal with. Nowadays, these oils are all configured for engines. If you want to refill oil, you must have a fuel ticket issued by the agency, even if it is from the agency.
, not many gas stamps can be issued in a year. This is not the case in the future, when the streets will be full of cars. At this time, only a person like Zhao Minglan in the county can drive a small green-shell Jeep, and cars are not affordable for ordinary people.
There are few places where oil is used, and diesel is more used than gasoline at the moment, mainly because diesel is still used in agricultural machinery. Of course, there are not many agricultural machinery in the county, but there are some, and they are still used every day.
But in general, in terms of oil consumption in the county, diesel is the largest one. Even if it is the largest one, it is only five or six tons in a year.
From this number, you can guess what the economic conditions of this county are like.
"Then leave this matter to me, but it will take a while. It will take more than two months. The person I know has gone out of town and will have to stay for a month before he can come back. During this period, you can think of a way, even if it is a loan.
"Borrow some," Gu Siwei said.
Now Gu Siwei's idea is very straightforward. If you want to cancel it, then go and 'borrow' it. Of course, the borrowing that Gu Siwei said is different from the borrowing that ordinary people understand. Most people borrow with the thought of repaying it. Gu Siwei is just paying back.
, he had no intention of paying it back.
Who can he borrow diesel from? Gu Siwei got brave and planned to borrow it from the British in Hong Kong. Anyway, they now have troops stationed in Hong Kong. These big soldiers don't want to use cars, so how could they run out of oil?
You guys came all the way to our country, and I asked you to borrow some oil. Isn’t it a big problem? So it was only natural that Gu Siwei borrowed the oil.
After hearing this, Yang Chuanwu said: "If you are sure that you can pay it back by then, I can really borrow it from here, but you can't talk nonsense. If you don't pay it by then, you will be dead."
Damn it, I don’t have the shame to see you again."
"Don't worry about this. As long as the time comes, even if it's a robbery, I will snatch the oil back for you and let you pay it back to others," Gu Siwei said, patting his chest.
Yang Chuanwu thought for a moment: "Then let me borrow five barrels?"
The five barrels that Yang Chuanwu mentioned are not the standard round diesel barrels that will be common in the future. He is talking about the square iron diesel barrels used today, one barrel is about thirty liters.
Gu Siwei doesn't know if this is the current standard. Anyway, let alone diesel barrels, they were all calculated this way.
"If you can borrow more, borrow more. It's actually a good thing for these folks to come to visit us. Isn't everyone fine now? When the time comes, we will organize people and they will have to eat something when they come to visit us. We are here
Let’s make something simple..." Gu Siwei started his divergent thinking.
Gu Siwei's thoughts directly amused Yang Chuanwu.
Ha ha ha ha.
Yang Chuanwu smiled so happily.
Gu Siwei was a little confused, so he asked: "Is this what I said wrong?"
Yang Chuanwu said: "Your idea is good, you want to ask the villagers to get more, but you have not thought that most of these people have relatives in the village. If they had no relatives, those people would not send them here. Let them
When I came here, I naturally wanted to have a good time with my relatives."
"So?" Gu Siwei was a little confused.
"So, you have to eat from relatives. Even if you have a pot of rice porridge and potatoes, you have to entertain relatives when they come to visit. You can't let people go hungry. This method of yours simply won't work."
"..." Gu Siwei really didn't expect this.
Yang Chuanwu continued: "Do you know why I'm not here today? I didn't dare to show up because one of them was my cousin."
Gu Siwei was stunned for a moment.
Yang Chuanwu said: "Do you think I'm unreasonable?"
Gu Siwei shook his head: "I know it's difficult for you to handle this matter. Give them a chance. This is Zhuangzi's resource. If you don't give them a chance, you will offend your relatives, so I just came here. Out of sight, out of mind."
Snapped!
Yang Chuanwu patted his thigh: "What you said is absolutely right. Whether you do or not do this is not a human being. You can say that you should go with the price in the town, but I can't, because I can get whatever price you want.
Some people scolded me, but it was convenient for you.
Alas, this is how it is sometimes. If you are a relative, even if someone takes advantage of you, they will still feel that they have not taken advantage of you enough and that you do not care about them.
It seems like you are so happy here, just give it a kick and there will be no problems."
"Why does it sound like they are laughing at me?" Gu Siwei asked.
Yang Chuanwu said quickly: "That's not true. I was just thinking. I have been working as a captain for all these years and have not achieved much. I thought that if you, the captain, could do it, the fellow villagers would have something to look forward to following you."
Gu Siwei was shocked when he heard this and immediately said: "I can't do it. It would be better for you to be the captain."
Nonsense, what's the point of being a captain at this time? There's no room for Gu Siwei to show off. If Gu Siwei starts to trouble the village at this time, it won't take long for others to take care of him.
Don't say that Gu Siwei has never thought about being the captain. Even if he had thought about it, he would not choose this time. Isn't that stupid? Do you really think that you can withstand the crushing wheel of history if you have space?
Besides, what happens even if you resist? I'm afraid it will be more troublesome then, so it's better to live an honest life.
"Let's talk about the computer room." Gu Siwei quickly changed the topic.
"I told you that your idea won't work."
What does Gu Siwei not understand now?
I originally thought that these people would come to Jiji, and the villagers would organize themselves to cook some food and earn some money. Anyway, it is hard to rest at home in the winter, and there is no farm work to do. It is better than playing mahjong at home.
When I hear it now, I really think too much. I didn't expect that people here have been here for so many generations, and they can pull out a string with a piece of string.
Yang Chuanwu suddenly changed the topic and asked Gu Siwei: "Can your sheep be eaten?"
"No, it hasn't grown yet, but you can eat it if you want," Gu Siwei said.
Yang Chuanwu said: "I don't want to eat it. I just think that I can't ask for help here in vain. I have to bring something. You know my family, there is nothing that others can look at. I thought about this person."
I like to eat mutton, so I'll bring you a leg of lamb when the time comes.
Don't worry, I won't get your money for nothing. You said that the rent for a few rooms will be charged according to the town, so the money saved will soon be enough to pay for the leg of lamb, and we will settle the accounts then."
"That's okay"
Gu Siwei would not be polite to business matters. Of course, you have to pay for the leg of lamb. If you don't charge, it's impossible. Then the whole village will eat you. If you don't think so, you still have to let the villagers learn to wait.
It is better not to rely on it, but to work hard on your own.
The two discussed it and roughly decided on the matter.
We’ve finished talking about business matters, now it’s time to talk about personal matters.
The Yang Chuanwu family didn't have anything private to talk about, so the only thing they talked about was the Gu Siwei family, and the business was about putting up beams on the Gu Siwei family's new house.
After Yang Chuanwu heard Gu Siweiye's brief introduction about the house, he said: "You are really capable of doing things. Now there are so many mouths to eat at home, but you don't have any worries at all?"
"Oh, speaking of this, let me tell you something happy. That Zhao Minglan has been arrested now for having sex with men. I heard that I didn't know who broke the shoes with anyone in the county. That person still has a husband...
…”.
Yang Chuanwu told Gu Siwei the news he had just heard.
How could Gu Siwei not know that he was present when the incident happened?
If you know but you still have to pretend you don't know, that's just because of Ku Siwei's acting skills.
Gu Siwei acted, but Yang Chuanwu didn't watch it. He was now very happy talking about what he heard about Zhao Minglan from others. Gu Siwei was surprised, why was Yang Chuanwu so happy.
"Oh, there are so many people in your family and you haven't received such a large amount of rations yet. Zhao Minglan used to hold them back, but now you have to go and get them. Otherwise, five or six people will spend a lot of money eating each other in a day.
Gu Siwei nodded after hearing this: "Yes, I understand. When the new leader takes office, I will apply here."
"There is no new leader. Now that Zhao Minglan has fallen, her opponent has come up. Now it is Wei Dongfang who is in charge of county affairs."
"Do you know him?" Gu Siwei asked after seeing Yang Chuanwu's eloquent words.
Yang Chuanwu said: "How can I know him? How old am I and how old is he? He is nineteen years old. I have worked with his brother before, but now he probably doesn't know me either."
"Nineteen!"
Gu Siwei sighed for a while. He was so young and became the leader of a county. It is estimated that at this time of year, decades later, he would not have joined the workforce at the age of nineteen.
