Chapter 24

Director Hu was a bit upset.

He felt he had trusted Lu Qiao too much.

He should have waited until the vegetables arrived before notifying them.

But Lu Qiao said that the weather had been hot these days, and green leafy vegetables couldn't be stored, so it was best to trade them as soon as they arrived, which would also avoid loss.

He had believed it.

"... Nothing, aren't you going back to the unit? Why don't you hurry up and leave?"

The union official was driven away inexplicably, but he couldn't delay, and just as he was about to leave, he heard someone shout: "They're back, the truck pulling the vegetables is back, my god, a whole truck of green..."

Director Hu and Huang Juan looked at each other, and both were full of smiles.

After walking out of the neighborhood office, they saw a military green big truck parked steadily at the door.

And at the gate of the military factory, Lu Lu Lu Qiaoling and Lu Xiaosi had already gotten off the truck.

The two siblings were responsible for meeting Captain Zhao from Guzi Village here.

At this time, Lu Qiao jumped down from the cab, her eyes shining as she looked at Director Hu, smiling: "I didn't fail the mission, the green leafy vegetables have been traded back, please check and receive them, leaders."

Director Hu smiled until his eyes narrowed into a slit.

Was there any need to check? Because Gu Wenbo of the transport team, who followed closely, said slowly: "I watched the loading, the members of Guzi Village are too honest, they even hurriedly picked off a little bit of bad leaves."

Director Hu looked up.

Both sides were blocked by several ropes crossed.

Even though they were piled high, no vegetables fell off, and, they were all in bundles.

Fresh and tender, one could tell at a glance that they had been picked not long ago.

Satisfied, very satisfied!

Lu Qiao said: "Director Hu, you call the gatekeeper, Captain Lin's horse-drawn carriage will arrive in a while, he said the car is too fuel-consuming, he will use the horse-drawn carriage to pull the daily necessities back."

Old Hu hurriedly let Ren Xiaocui make the call, and a row of tables had already been moved out here.

Old Hu shouted: "See, these are all vegetables, so everyone don't squeeze and don't grab, everyone can have a share, have you seen the detailed list posted on the wall? Trade according to this, and you can't trade for too much, these are green leafy vegetables, they can't be stored, if you take too many, you can't eat them and they will rot, it's a pity, others who want to eat can't get them..."

"Director Hu, you are too long-winded."

"If you continue to be long-winded, the cucumber vegetables will be cold."

"Hurry up and start, I was the first to come, I want five catties of chives, five catties of spinach, five catties of small cabbage, five catties of small green onions, I bought tofu, small green onions mixed with tofu at noon, clear and white, hahaha..."

"You are opening your mouth like a lion, do you have enough things to bring? Can you take them back?"

The neighborhood office had always been lively, and now it was even more lively, but everyone was smiling.

The tube building didn't have a vegetable garden, and eating vegetables depended on buying, and eating green leafy vegetables really wasn't that easy.

Lu Qiao saw Ren Xiaocui nodding at her with a smile, knowing the call was made, so Lu Qiao picked up a few bundles of green leafy vegetables that had been bundled in advance and came to Director Hu, telling him directly that this was for Director He.

Huang Juan, who was on the side, smiled and said: "You go send them first, wait until you come back, we still have a lot to ask you."

Lu Qiao hadn't expected to run into Sun Qin, who came to pick her up, halfway. Lu Qiao handed the vegetables to her: "Don't save them, I'll go trade again another day."

Lu Qiao saw that there was still enough time, so she ran to the gate again.

Lu Lu Lu Qiaoling was talking to Captain Lin who had just arrived, while Lu Xiaosi was standing in the shade holding the tabby cat.

The guard had just received the call and had an introduction letter from Captain Lin, so he let them in very quickly.

Lu Qiao told Lu Lu Lu Qiaoling: "You and Xiao Si walk slowly in the back."

Lu Lu Lu Qiaoling nodded obediently.

Captain Lin said: "It's okay, the horse-drawn carriage can pull it, why walk, come up and sit in the carriage."

Lu Lu Lu Qiaoling and Lu Xiaosi happily got on the horse-drawn carriage.

Lu Qiao glanced at the carriage and let Captain Lin drive the carriage toward the Lu family's direction first.

The grain was covered with grass bags, and it couldn't be seen what was inside, but it was bulging, and it seemed like quite a lot.

When they moved it down, Lu Qiao knew it was even more than she had imagined.

Meng Xia and Old Lady Lu hadn't gone anywhere, just waiting at home according to Lu Qiao's words.

But actually, they couldn't be at ease.

In case they couldn't trade it back, not to mention the toss, would it be embarrassing?

But since people had already left, thinking about this was also superfluous.

How could they have imagined that a big horse-drawn carriage would arrive at their door.

Lu Qiao jumped off the carriage, scanned left and right, the neighbors were all dual-income families, and they were all at work at this time.

At this time, it was very quiet here.

Lu Qiao and the others and Captain Lin moved the grain down.

Meng Xia looked at the grain bags placed under the tree in shock.

This was about five hundred catties, right?

Did they actually trade for so much?

Fifty catties of white flour, two hundred catties of corn grits, two hundred catties of corn flour, twenty catties of rice, as well as soybeans and mung beans, and in the flour bag was fifty catties of millet.

Beside it was a large bamboo basket, full of green leafy vegetables.

Meng Xia was dumbfounded, her voice a bit floating: "... This... this is too much, will it... cause trouble for you, Captain?"

Captain Lin waved his hand: "No trouble, besides, the things you brought are what the brigade needs, and some can't even be bought without industrial coupons... This is given to you according to the price of grain handed over."

Meng Xia felt bad in her heart, but still hard-stuffed a pair of rain boots to Captain Lin.

These were the ones Old Lu had just been distributed and hadn't been willing to wear.

Captain Lin was startled, this pair of black men's rain boots was too precious, how could he accept them?

Lu Qiao, however, didn't give Captain Lin a chance to refuse, pulled him out of the Lu house, put the boots into the canvas bag and threw them into the carriage, let him continue to drive the carriage, and said in a kind tone: "Uncle Lin, don't calculate so clearly, I didn't even expect you to trade for so much grain, I remember it in my heart, in the future as long as there is something, if I can help, you must speak."

Captain Lin wasn't a procrastinating person either. Once he heard Lu Qiao call him Uncle Lin, he agreed readily.

It was just that this pair of rain boots was different from rubber shoes, it was really hard to get, Comrade Lu's family was too honest.

He remembered this favor in his heart.

But he couldn't wear this pair of rain boots, he was going to send them to President Zhu on behalf of Comrade Lu.

Smoothly drove the horse-drawn carriage to the neighborhood office.

Because of the organization, the family members originally wanted to grab, but there were neighborhood office cadres and union officials who came to help, and it soon became orderly.

Mainly because the noisy ones attracted more people, and then there wouldn't be enough to share.

The loss of green leafy vegetables was inevitable, but because everyone cherished them, they were bundled tightly, and basically, there wasn't much loss.

The most convenient thing was that they could be calculated bundle by bundle.

And they didn't let them pick, just take them layer by layer.

Just like the shop assistants in this era selling things, if you want to be picky, you can't.

Whatever they give you is what it is, basically there is no room for choice.

So, a big truck of vegetables, except for the reserved ones, was basically traded out.

The book recorded many pages, and the big basket at the door also put many things.

According to what was said before, the neighborhood office left vegetables for the transport team, all placed in the truck.

Lu Qiao took the broom and went up to the truck, swept the vegetable leaves that fell into the truck compartment, and then tidied up a large pile of green leafy vegetables and eggs before jumping off the truck neatly, and thanking Brother Gu with a smile... *** **CHAPTER 25** **【25-0】 Done beautifully**

After organizing another large pile of green vegetables and eggs, she nimbly jumped off the cart and thanked Brother Gu with a beaming smile...
