Chapter 779

~7 min read 1,352 words

"This is my big brother, a good big brother for life."

If this sentence came from someone else's mouth, Wang An would just smile and let it go.

But this came from Ye Qingfeng's mouth, which is different; mainly because Ye Qingfeng is too honest, and what he says is basically not fake.

Of course, adding past and present lives together, Wang An hasn't seen Ye Qingfeng for more than forty years, so saying he is honest now might not be accurate; after all, people change.

But regardless, Ye Qingfeng is still very loyal.

Only seeing Ye Qingfeng finish speaking, the staff member who made things difficult for Wang An immediately flashed a trace of resentment in his eyes, but on his mouth, he immediately smiled at Wang An: "Qingfeng's big brother, then he's not an outsider, it's my fault, it's my fault, brother, don't take it to heart."

Wang An smiled faintly and said:

"We're all men, how can I take this little thing to heart? It's fine, it's fine."

You act, and I act; anyway, it's just a matter of face. Afterward, if you need to use a sack, use a sack; it doesn't delay anything at all.

Only seeing this kid burst into loud laughter after hearing Wang An's words:

"I just said brother is not that kind of narrow-minded person, hahahahaha."

It must be said that this person's acting is also genuinely not bad.

Wang An smiled and didn't bother with him anymore.

In Wang An's view, this kind of person is the kind of small person; if he continues to contact him, Wang An is afraid that he will be corrupted by the other party; after all, he is still young, and his mind is not very mature. If... very quickly, Ye Qingfeng opened the slip for corn and wheat, and immediately after, Ye Qingfeng asked Wang An: "Black beans don't need grain coupons to buy now, big brother, do you want some?"

Wang An heard there was such a good thing and immediately became interested.

Black beans can't be used as grain to be cooked and eaten directly, nor can they be used to extract oil, but using this thing as feed for livestock is much better than corn.

Besides, using this thing to make tofu, which is green tofu, is also something that is super delicious.

It's just that using this thing to make tofu requires grinding off the black skin first; otherwise, the tofu made will be gray-black, and the tofu made after grinding off the black skin will be light green.

Besides that, this thing can also sprout bean sprouts; just in time, the vegetables at home are not much left, so taking this thing to sprout some bean sprouts as vegetables is also quite good.

So, Wang An said without hesitation: "Then Qingfeng, give me two thousand jin; how much is this thing per jin?"

Only hearing Ye Qingfeng say: "This thing is cheap, only 5 cents per jin; by the way, big brother, why are you getting so much grain? Isn't the autumn harvest in four months? Won't this all become old grain?"

Wang An said helplessly: "Don't mention it, isn't it because we're building a house at home? And we promised to provide three full meals a day for the hired hands; this damn 400-plus jin of grain a day, we can't afford to eat it, fuck."

It must be admitted that although Wang An is not short of money and the price of grain is not expensive, buying grain in large quantities at this time is genuinely not an easy thing.

Mainly because besides the public or collective, there is no grain in the hands of individuals at all.

To say this matter also blames Wang An himself; if he built the house a year later, buying grain would be very simple, because ever since the division of land to households, there has been surplus grain in the hands of individuals.

At this time, that grain station staff member suddenly chimed in:

"No wonder brother exchanged so many grain coupons; it turns out it's for building a house."

Wang An nodded and smiled, not speaking.

To tell the truth, this person has to be considered a genuine talent, able to bend and stretch, simply not knowing what face is. Don't look down on this kind of person; if he bumps into a blind leader, he might really be promoted to an official or something.

After a while, Ye Qingfeng stood up with the slip and said to Wang An: "Let's go, big brother, I'll go over with you; by the way, big brother, how did you come? Can you pull so much grain?"

Wang An said casually:

"Can pull it, I came driving a four-wheeled vehicle."

As soon as Wang An's words came out, Ye Qingfeng and that staff member were stunned for a moment.

You have to know that in this era, no one who can drive a four-wheeled vehicle is an ordinary person; even if there is no four-wheeled vehicle at home, being able to drive one is something that makes people look up to you.

Before Ye Qingfeng could speak, that staff member chimed in again: "Brother is capable, even driving a four-wheeled vehicle; buying that thing is not an easy thing, brother, you are hiding your strength and have someone above you, hahahahaha, which day I'll arrange a table, call them out to drink together?"

Wang An twitched the corner of his mouth, and a thought suddenly arose in his brain, which is that he must find an opportunity to put a sack on this kid and give him a fierce beating.

This kid is truly disgusting, and he takes himself too seriously; he keeps comparing and climbing up the pole, and you arrange a table, what the fuck are you to arrange? This time, Wang An just looked at him coldly and didn't even speak.

The reason Wang An didn't want to speak was that Wang An was afraid he would curse directly.

Fortunately, Ye Qingfeng was just honest, not stupid; after glaring at his colleague, he said to Wang An: "Let's go, big brother, let's go load the grain."

Wang An nodded and said casually:

"Yeah, let's go."

Arriving outside the office, Wang An started the four-wheeled vehicle, and following Ye Qingfeng's guidance, he drove the four-wheeled vehicle toward the corn warehouse.

The grain station's granaries were normal brick-tile houses, but the windows used for ventilation were very small, and even a person couldn't crawl through.

And the grain inside was not put into sacks, but put directly into the grain piles in the warehouse.

If you want to buy grain, you have to prepare sacks yourself, or find a way to move the grain away; the grain station won't take care of these for you.

Of course, the grain station also has ready-made sacks, but you need to spend money to buy them; the price of the sacks is the same as the supply and marketing cooperative.

Four-dou large sacks, which are sacks that can hold 200 jin, are 80 cents each; as for the kind Wang An often brings into the mountains, they are two-dou sacks, which are the kind that hold 100 jin.

It must be said that sacks are genuinely not very cheap.

But thinking about it, it feels normal; after all, a sack is woven from dense fine hemp rope; to be accurate, this thing is actually made of hemp cloth.

It is because of this that besides being used to hold things, this thing is also a quilt, mattress, or clothes for poor families.

That's right, it's clothes; families who have no clothes to wear have children wearing sacks, or rather, draped in sacks.

This is a fact.

Giving Ye Qingfeng face, the sacks the warehouse staff sold to Wang An, although the price didn't change, were all new, genuinely new ones.

Immediately after, Ye Qingfeng casually summoned a few workers, and then they started loading corn into the sacks and loading the vehicle.
