Chapter 620 Zhu Boss and the others have arrived
Our accountant will be here in a few days. She is a sister from Shanghai. Her husband will also come. He is a chef.
You can find two more people who can cook locally. With these three people, it shouldn't be a problem to provide food for us.
From now on we will fire our own fire, and our company will pay for all the expenses.
This way, everyone can have a hot meal no matter how late they come back, and the meal may even be better.”
"Okay, then let's take some time to clean up the yard."
"it is good."
Before going to bed, Li Fenlan called back and said that she and her lover were willing to come over.
However, I am not selling my job, but rather being suspended with pay. I plan to come and take a look at the actual situation here before making a decision.
"I'll settle my home in the next two days and then come over."
"it is good."
The next afternoon, the local mountain people and the old shopkeeper introduced by Director Liu arrived.
The old shopkeeper’s surname is Zhu, his given name is Bingwen, and he is sixty-four years old this year.
He is tall and looks thin, as if there are only bones left on his body, and he is in very good spirits.
He walks with great vigor and speed, and it is hard to associate his walking posture with his age.
With his hands behind his back, he looks very scholarly, a bit like an old scholar who knows some Kung Fu.
As a result, the first thing he said after sitting down in the restaurant was: "I love meat, as long as there is enough meat."
After that, he started ordering his own food, picking his favorites and commenting on the food as he ordered, saying that the food here was not very good.
He muttered: "It seems that an old man like me will suffer in the future!"
Xia Ran smiled and replied: "As long as the doctor has no objection, I have no objection either, eat as much as you want.
Also, we will build our own kitchenette and the chef is on the way.
When you are old, just tell them what you want to eat and let them cook it for you.
By the way, let everyone else take advantage of this. We are all rough people and can only make do with food. By the way, let us enjoy your food and satisfy our taste buds."
After that, he turned to the Liu family and said, "You two can order whatever you like.
I'm not very good at taking care of people, you can't count on me.
We are all family from now on, no need to be polite, just order whatever you want to eat, only by doing it yourself can you have enough food and clothing."
Liu Dachun said "OK" several times.
Shopkeeper Zhu then raised his head and looked at Xia Ran formally, "Not bad, it's to my taste."
If it wasn't for an important favor involved, he would have to do it. He really doesn't want to make this trip at his age.
Wouldn't it be nice for him to stay at home, take a walk, eat something delicious, and drink some tea?
After saying that, he continued to order food.
He did this partly because of his personality.
On the other hand, I also want to take this opportunity to test this female boss, to see if she has a broad mind and whether she is suitable for working with me for a long time?
At that time, we will decide how much skills and abilities we will use to deal with it.
The two mountain villagers were a father and son. Their surname was Liu. The father was Liu Dachun and the son was Liu Chuan.
They look silly, but only the gleam in their eyes that shows that no one here is stupid.
Since Shopkeeper Zhu knew more about food, Xia Ran ignored that and started chatting with Liu Chuan and his son.
We talked about this year's rainfall, the harvest here, and the living habits and customs of the local people.
The two were a little reserved at first, but when they saw Xia Ran speaking casually, they gradually relaxed and spoke freely.
Especially Liu Chuan, who was only 21 years old and was very talkative and lively. He talked about the interesting things he experienced in the mountains, such as hunting, setting traps and picking wild fruits.
Xia Ran felt particularly yearning after hearing this.
Her previous knowledge of the Northeast was limited to literary works and various short videos from later generations.
After hearing what Liu Chuan said, the words she had read suddenly came alive and flashed through her mind one by one, as if she had experienced them too.
After dinner, I took the person to the rented yard.
"We can only live here for now. Thank you for following us and making do with us."
Shopkeeper Zhu put his hands behind his back, looked around, and nodded, "It's just barely okay."
"Tell me, why did you invite an old man like me and Lao Liu to come here? What exactly do you want to do?"
Xia Ran asked people to open several warehouse doors directly, "Please, I want you to see the value of these things we have recovered.
Give a price carefully to avoid being fooled."
What greeted Xia Ran next was a barrage of criticism from the shopkeeper Zhu.
"How could you do this? These leathers need to be kept separately for maintenance.
Look at you guys, all the skins and clothes are piled together, you can’t do this…”
As he spoke, he started to operate it himself, with a look of disappointment on his face.
Xia Ran said: "I think the arrangement is pretty good, so neat."
These things have been specially cleaned up and arranged neatly by these retired young men, just like soldiers standing guard. What else do you want?
To Xia Ran, this was already the limit of what she could imagine.
"What do you kids know? It's no use putting them in order. This is not the way to collect and maintain them..."
Seeing this, Liu Chuan and his son also prepared to clean up.
Xia Ran stopped him, "Don't worry about it for now, Shopkeeper Zhu, you guys can take a rest first, and walk around to get familiar with the environment.
When our people come back, you will direct everyone to work. Otherwise, if you three are the only ones doing it, you will be exhausted.”
Liu Dachun said: "I'm just sitting there doing nothing, why not find something to do?"
"Uncle Liu, you guys should make your own beds first and settle down first. There's no need to rush.
Don't worry, we have a lot of people, so we can clean it up quickly, but no one knows this, so we put it this way."
Shopkeeper Zhu glanced at Xia Ran, extremely dissatisfied with Xia Ran's address: "You call him Uncle Liu, but call me Shopkeeper Zhu, you are biased, girl."
Xia Ran was amused. As expected, people become naughty when they get old. She deliberately teased: "Then what should I call you? Uncle Zhu? Old Man Zhu?"
Old man Zhu snorted and muttered, "How disrespectful."
Since there was no objection, Xia Ran took it as a yes.
"Uncle Zhu and Uncle Liu, we are not in a hurry. We have plenty of manpower, but they are all out now and are not here.
Wait till night, and you will know.”
Only then did they stop and start looking at the various goods in the room.
The three of them were like mice falling into a rice jar, watching and commenting, this one is good, that one is also OK...
After watching to their heart's content, Old Man Zhu asked, "Do we have any retired soldiers here?"
“Well, there are more than 110 of us here, 32 of whom are ordinary guys who came with me from Shanghai.
The remaining 86 are all retired soldiers, and another 100 are on their way.”
"Sure, girl, you're doing a good business."
Being able to feed so many people and create so many jobs can be considered a contribution to society.
