Chapter 69

Xiao Yuanhang pointed and arranged the matter, handed over everything to Wang Dahai, and then went home. The shift was about to leave tomorrow, and some preparations were still needed, especially Minister Xu would take this train tomorrow, so he had to prepare well. Besides, he went to Lin Quan after finishing the shift. He didn't see Jiang Shan for seven or eight days. He calculated that Jiang Shan should be in the night shift tonight, so he could only go to the hospital to see her at night.

When I got home, I packed up my backpack for the car, thought about it, and put the box of instant coffee I bought in the Huanghai Overseas Chinese Store from the cabinet. This era is not like later generations, with coffee shops everywhere. There are not many Chinese people who come into contact with this foreign game, and some don’t even know what the coffee is. The receptionist usually serves tea. In order to deepen the impression, Xiao Yuanhang is preparing to serve coffee for Minister Xu and his party this time.

These days, Xiao Yuanhang felt a little tired. After packing up what he had to prepare for leaving the car, he lay down and slept for a while. It was already 4:30 pm when he woke up. He heard his father cooking in the kitchen. When he went to wash his face, he took a look. The meat was made with beans and potatoes. The dishes were just boiling, and the kitchen was full of the aroma of the dishes!

Seeing that Xiao Yuanhang was about to go out after washing his face, Xiao Qiliang stuck his head out and said, "Xiaohang, don't go far. We will have dinner when your mother comes back later."

Xiao Yuanhang said: "Dad, I won't walk far away, just stay at the front of the building for a while, and when my mother comes back, I will come back too."

Xiao Yuanhang's house is basically old neighbors. They moved to this building together during the relocation in 1979. The front of the building is where the neighbors gather. At night, everyone sits on the stone slabs made of loess on the top of the building, and the adults gather together to chat. Young people come together to play poker, usually play magic tricks, two people fight together, and the lottery head for winning 5 holes is a box of cigarettes. Everyone agreed before playing with any brand of cigarettes. The children are playing here...

Xiao Yuanhang came to the building to see if Uncle Liu was there in Sanmendong. His big name was Liu Fujin, who looked fifty-three or four years old. He was a freight duty officer at Guhe Station. Guhe Station is a first-class station. The freight duty officer is an important position. The four freight duty officers are all over fifty years old. Unlike some small stations who work for freight for a few years, they can be called by young people. Of course, they will discuss the issue of picking up the goods.

Xiao Yuanhang came to the entrance of the building and took a look. There were many people at the entrance of the building, but Liu Fujin was not among them. After greeting the aunts and ladies, he came to Wang Er's group to watch the game. Wang Er and him were in the same doorway, living on the third floor. They were Zhang Da together since childhood, but they were two years older than him. The other three were also familiar with Li Qiang in the front floor, the third child in the back floor and the boss Zheng in the back floor, they usually play together.

Seeing Xiao Yuanhang coming, Boss Zheng said, "Waiter, how many games are there?"

Xiao Yuanhang smiled and said, "No, I'll have dinner later. I'll watch it for a while. What did you win today?"

Boss Zheng said: "Today, Da Jinhua, hehe, I have won half of it!"

Boss Zheng and the Sanhaier, Wang Er and Li Qiang’s gang. Seeing Wang Er and Li Qiang’s faces turned dark, you know that Boss Zheng is right. Five boxes of gold cost three or four yuan. If you win, you want to run away. There is no door, so I won’t give it to you as a cushion!

Xiao Yuanhang saw them playing a few times and wanted to go home. When he looked up, he saw Liu Fujin coming out of Aunt Wu’s shop opposite with a soy sauce bottle. He immediately said hello and said, “Uncle Liu, do you want to make soy sauce?”

When Liu Fujin saw that it was Xiao Yuanhang, he replied: "Yes, I just found out that the soy sauce was gone after dinner. Waiter, are you off work today?"

Xiao Yuanhang said: "Yes, I'll leave tomorrow. Uncle Liu, you must be making dumplings at home, right?"

Liu Fujin laughed and said, "Vegetable dumplings, vegetable dumplings!"

Seeing that the head of the building was too talkative, Xiao Yuanhang leaned over and said, "Uncle Liu, I want to ask you for help."

"What's the matter? Tell me, as long as I help you, I will definitely help you!" Although Liu Fujin moved here later and was not an old neighbor with Xiao Yuanhang's family, he had lived in the same building for more than 5 years and was very familiar with him. He agreed without thinking.

Xiao Yuanhang said: "Uncle Liu, that's the case. My friend sent two boxes of goods from Linquan. He left the whole piece. It is estimated that it will be available in four or five days. I want Uncle Liu to notify me when he saw the goods arrive. In addition, I want Uncle Liu to find a car at the cargo and pull out the two containers directly. After unloading the goods, we will send the boxes back."

"No, no!" Liu Fujin shook his head when he heard this. If the previous one arrived, it would be fine. If the goods arrived, he would just tell Xiao Yuanhang when he came back. But he was in a dilemma behind him. It was nothing to pull the container out of the cargo yard. He could be the one who could do this and just send it back after unloading the goods. But it would be a bit too much for Xiao Yuanhang to ask him to find a car. He worked in the cargo office for so many years, and it was easy to find a car. The key is that he had to take favors. Besides, pulling the container out of the cargo yard is also a violation of regulations. He would not agree without any deep communication.

Xiao Yuanhang was not in a hurry at all. He knew that as soon as his conditions were issued, he agreed and said with a smile: "Uncle Liu, these guys were not for you to help for nothing. My friend said that as long as you are willing to help this, I will give you the money!" As he said that, he slapped him.

Liu Fujin looked at Xiao Yuanhang and slapped her hands and asked, "5 yuan?"

Xiao Yuanhang smiled and shook his head and said, "No, it's 50 yuan!"

"Ah!" Liu Fujin was shocked when he heard this. He would give him 50 yuan if he did such a favor? He couldn't help but lick his dry lips. His family of seven, three sons and two daughters, his wife had no job, and the family lived all on his salary of eighty or ninety yuan a month. It was very difficult. It was impossible to be 50 yuan as his salary for most half of the month. It was impossible for Xiao Yuanhang to seize this point and was so sure.

Seeing that Liu Fujin was a little surprised and a little confused, Xiao Yuanhang smiled and said, "Uncle Liu, my friend often ships goods to Guhe from the ditch. I will be troubled in the future, but my friend is very particular and will never treat you badly!"

Seeing that Xiao Yuanhang's friend was so generous, Liu Fujin vaguely thought that the goods he shipped might have some problems, but 50 yuan was too tempting for him. He thought that the inspection was the delivery party's business, and there was no responsibility for any arrival station you sent. Finally, he made up his mind and nodded and said, "Okay, waiter, I agree to this matter, but I have to talk to you at that time."

Xiao Yuanhang smiled and said, "Uncle Liu, I have taken care of this matter, don't worry, there will be no problem with one hand and one hand money at that time!"

He explained to Liu Fujin in detail the delivery station. After arriving at the station, Xiao Yuanhang returned home happily. Before his mother Bai Shuxian came back, Xiao Yuanhang saw that the time was almost over, so he put the table on and helped his father to bring the dishes and dishes on the table.

Sure enough, it was not long before Bai Shuxian came back. Seeing that the table had already been put on, she raised a piece of pork head in her hand and said, "Old Xiao, my son will leave the car tomorrow. I bought a piece of pork head and come back. You can cut it and make some garlic sauce."
