Chapter 127 Find Boss Zhou Again
Chapter 127 Find Boss Zhou Again
"It's true that a man is remarkably different after three days of absence. Sister Bai, you have learned to look three steps ahead before taking one step." Gu Mingyue teased.
Bai Fenglai said angrily, "I've been with you for so long, but I still can't learn it. I will learn it even if I listen to it every day."
Gu Mingyue said sincerely, "That's great. I believe Aunt Xu will be very pleased to know this. I think she won't worry about your immaturity anymore. This is a great deed for me, isn't it? Haha..."
Bai Fenglai said unhappily, "I see you are used to flattering yourself."
Then he asked uncomfortably, "Mingyue, can I tell my parents about the prophecy when I get home?"
"Of course you can, but will they believe it?"
"I think it's terrible." Bai Fenglai said in a dilemma, "But I still feel uneasy. At least let them be prepared."
Gu Mingyue instructed, "That's fine, but you have to tell them not to spread the news everywhere. Otherwise, if they are accused of spreading feudal superstition, no one will be able to escape unscathed."
"Don't worry, I understand. I'll go home in the afternoon then."
"The house will be located here and won't be changed?" Gu Mingyue suddenly asked.
Bai Fenglai nodded. "Well, even though I haven't lived here for long, I'm used to it. I don't plan to make any major changes to other things. I'll just modify the walls and the toilet to make them the same as yours. And build a shower room. I think it's quite convenient to do what you did."
Gu Mingyue suggested, "Let's dig another well so that it will be more convenient to get water in the future."
Bai Fenglai clapped his hands and said, "Oh, I almost forgot about this. Fortunately, you reminded me."
When talking about building a house, Gu Mingyue thought of the freshmen. "Have you discussed it?"
"Well... we've discussed it."
Bai Fenglai felt a little embarrassed when she said this. "During this period, the freshmen were basically responsible for fetching water, collecting firewood, and doing housework. I couldn't help them. But I want to make it clear that I let them stay not because I wanted them to work, but that was only a small part of the reason. The main reason was that the children were sensible and I couldn't bear to be separated from them."
"I was originally worried about whether it would be safe for them to live on their own in the future. If you can take care of them, I can worry less. Okay, pack up your things and let's go. I'll go to town with you."
"Do you want to go with me?" Bai Fenglai said excitedly after hearing Gu Mingyue's words.
As soon as she saw Bai Fenglai's eyes, Gu Mingyue guessed what she was thinking.
He quickly said, "Stop it. I have my own business in town. I'm not going home with you. Don't try to persuade me to go with you."
Bai Fenglai said with some regret, "I thought that if you went home with me, your words would be more believable. If you have something else to say, forget it."
Gu Mingyue was speechless and said, "You really think highly of me. There is no difference between what I said and what I told you. If they didn't see this kind of weird thing with their own eyes, it would be normal for them not to believe it. If they do believe it, they are probably just trying to fool you."
Bai Fenglai's eyes widened. "Don't say that. It's really possible. What should we do?"
"Just leave it alone." Gu Mingyue said calmly, "You have to trust your grandfather and the others. With their experience, they will react quickly to some things even if you don't say anything. If you say it, it will only further verify their guess, and it won't affect anything."
that's the truth.
After the Great Leap Forward in Steel Production was launched, all units were required to participate in it unconditionally.
When Bai Yanqing returned home, he kept saying, "I've lived for so many years, but I've never heard of a person being able to make steel..."
But he only nagged Xu Nianci at home, and outside, he still actively cooperated with the work above.
There are many people like him, especially those who have some cultural knowledge.
But why is no one talking about it? Because the general environment is like this, everyone either really doesn’t understand it, or only has a vague understanding of it.
No one 'really understands'.
It’s not that I don’t understand, but that I really don’t dare.
Anyone who dares to jump out and say "impossible" at this time is hindering progress, which is a serious crime.
So after Bai Fenglai returned home and told the Bai family the prophecy, the family naturally did not believe it, but that did not stop them from making preparations early.
There is no need to predict, even now they already feel the situation is a little chaotic.
If this continues, the result is predictable.
Therefore, Bai Zhonghuai instructed Bai Yanqing to remember to keep a close eye on all the materials in the factory recently, to seize them if possible, and to save them if possible.
Because of this, when other factories had no food to eat and were almost starving to death during the three-year disaster period...
However, the textile factory was able to fill its stomach and successfully survive the difficult period thanks to the supplies that were withheld during this period.
Bai Yanqing gained the sincere support of the whole audience.
Thus, he escaped the frame-up during the ten-year revolutionary period, which was a blessing in disguise.
After many days, Gu Mingyue came to see Boss Zhou again as Jinzi.
"I haven't seen you for a few days. Sister Jin is still as charming as ever."
Gu Mingyue said politely, "Boss Zhou looks a little haggard. Did something happen?"
Zhou Tao smiled bitterly and said, "Sister Jin is really sharp. To be honest, it was the previous batch of watermelons that caused the trouble."
"Oh, what happened? Did the watermelon eat the bad guys?"
Boss Zhou was afraid that the other party would misunderstand him, so he quickly explained, "No, no, it's my personal reason. A leader here likes to eat melons, and I finally catered to his taste. He asked me to send some more, but I only have so much, and they were all distributed long ago. I waited and waited, but you didn't come. I used many connections, but I couldn't buy the same variety of melons. The leader was pressing me too hard, so I was really overwhelmed."
Gu Mingyue suddenly realized, so she said with difficulty, "I see. But Boss Zhou, it's not that I don't want to help you, it's mainly because I don't have much left. Plus, the weather is getting colder, and this thing is not easy to deal with..."
Boss Zhou was really anxious. He had been worried that the noble would be dissatisfied with him, and now he finally found a food that could arouse the noble's interest.
If he couldn't even do this, how would the noble man think of him? !
After hearing what Gu Mingyue had not finished saying, Boss Zhou quickly understood.
He took the box next to him and handed it to her, saying, "Don't worry, Sister Jin. I will never let you work in vain. Look, I know you like jade, so I found it especially for you. I asked someone to check it out, and they are all top-quality goods. If you like them, Sister Jin, you can take them all away. I just hope you can do me a favor."
Gu Mingyue took a quick look and found two pairs of bracelets, two jade pendants and a "Nothing to Worry" token in the box.
She doesn't understand, but space does.
Fortunately, the space responded, and this trip was not in vain.
She just said, "I won't hide it from you. I do have some left, not much, just about twenty, which I plan to use to make connections. Since Boss Zhou has said so much, I can't help but be righteous. I won't keep any of them and give them all to you. Is that okay?"
Boss Zhou immediately clasped his fists and said gratefully, "Thank you, Sister Jin."
"Okay, I'll have my people prepare it and pick it up at the old place later. These jades are all good stuff, so I'm getting a bargain. Forget about the money for the watermelon."
"No, let's put things in perspective. Big sister has been very kind to me, so I can't be unreasonable. I'll give you as much money as I can. By the way, big sister, do you still need food? I've collected a lot recently, otherwise you can use this as payment."
Gu Mingyue was somewhat concerned about what Boss Zhou said, and couldn't help asking, "Are there many people selling food recently?"
