My Siheyuan Shelter

Chapter 397
"Thank you for my mother's work!"

"I can't help either..."

Xu Dong waved his hand: "Is there any help, how can I not know? Don't refuse, just accept it with peace of mind!"

Lao Qin was moved, and reached out to shake Xu Dong's hand tightly, and finally paid an extra 90,000 yuan.

Money is really nothing, as long as he is willing to sell this extra batch of sugar, he can at least double the profit.

This time, I owe a lot of favors!

After that, several groups of people came one after another.

Soon at noon, Xu Dong didn't go home for dinner, but ate a loaf of bread with tea.

The first wave of people in the afternoon was Wang Lixin.

It was the one who sold bluefin tuna before, and the other party was far away in Tangshan, so he had to come alone.

"Old Wang, why have you lost weight?"

Wang Lixin smiled wryly and shook his head: "You really think I can eat meat every day!"

"Isn't your steel plant close to the sea? No matter what, it's better than our inland area, right?"

"It can't be done." Wang Lixin said shyly, "Let's not talk about fish at the beach now, and even a seaweed can't be picked up. If the factory hadn't secretly set up a kelp farm, the workers would have been hungry."

Xu Dong said unhappily: "Don't cry with me about being poor, at least you can still have enough food there, which is already much better than most of the country."

"That's true, hehe..."

Xu Dong took out ten catties of packed sugar from the carriage, and handed it directly to the other party:
"This is your white sugar, ten catties in total."

Wang Lixin took it carefully, then immediately opened the bag, dipped some white sugar with his little finger and put it in his mouth, his old face was full of smiles.

"So sweet!"

"This is sugar, can it be sweet?"

Wang Lixin put away the sugar, and came over with a flattering face: "Old Xu, can I buy more?"

"Other people have asked this question, and my answer is the same, no."

Xu Dong shook his head.

"What's the relationship between the two of us, please accommodate me?"

"The total quantity is so much. If you buy more, the others will be less. I can't keep my word, right? Unless..."

"Unless what?"

Wang Lixin was full of anticipation.

"Unless you exchange something, like the tuna last time, it's very good, and I can help you with it."

I have eaten half of the tuna at home, and it would be great if I could stock up on another batch.

As for the other party's misbehavior just now, he didn't believe a word. The sea is so big, no matter how hard humans fish, there will always be fish that slip through the net.

"Brother, why don't I call you brother? Our factory is really out of fish." Wang Lixin sighed.

Xu Dong spread his hands together: "Then there is nothing I can do to help!"

"Is it okay to exchange it with kelp?"

Wang Lixin tentatively said.

"No, people don't lack kelp, but they lack all kinds of meat." Xu Dong replied.

Kelp is a low-fat, low-carbohydrate food. It is okay to cook as a dish, but it will never work as a staple food.

Wang Lixin could only return disappointed.

Xu Dong was also disappointed.

……

The transaction went smoothly, and at ten o'clock the next morning, Xu Dong finally sent off the last group of friends.

So far, this round of benefits has almost been distributed, and only the last 18 people are left.

The last group of friends is very special, because they are no longer alive, some died in line of duty, some died of illness, and some died of sudden accidents.

In any case, they should not be forgotten.

Driving a pickup truck, Xu Dong met a group friend in his early fifties at the gate of a certain community.

This senior has worked in the police force for more than 30 years, and is currently working in the General Bureau. He is also the highest-ranking member among many group friends.

The reason why Xu Dong asked the other party to "come out of the mountain" was firstly to find someone to "suppress the place" so that no one would gossip; secondly, he could not get the detailed home addresses of these people.

The relevant information is sensitive, and he doesn't want to cause trouble.

"Director Li, I'm sorry to trouble you this time."

Director Li got into the co-pilot directly: "This is no trouble, just ask a little bit, and you can find out the address."

"I don't have such great ability."

"Section Chief Xu, don't underestimate yourself. Everyone admires your ability to get so much sugar and the shrimp from before."

"You should always call me Xiao Xu, Section Chief Xu sounds too out of place." Xu Dong said modestly.

Director Li nodded: "Don't call me Director Li, call me Uncle Li, it sounds kind."

"Okay, Uncle Li."

"Xiao Xu, has the sugar been distributed?" Director Li asked casually.

"It has just been distributed, and everyone should be able to get it in the next two days."

Xu Dong nodded and handed Director Li a cigarette.

Director Li took the cigarette and looked it over carefully.

"Fuxing brand, what a smoke!"

"If you always like it, I'll send you one back, as compensation for taking up your old rest time."

Director Li quickly waved his hand and returned the cigarette: "No need, I quit smoking after a lot of trouble, don't hurt me, let me fall short."

"Hey, it's better for your health not to smoke."

"You think I don't want to smoke. After all, I can't afford to smoke. A pack of cigarettes can cover my day's wages."

Just chatting and chatting like this, the first one arrived.

After the two entered the community, Director Li pointed to a residential building in front of him and said:

"Their family is on the fifth floor. Speaking of which, the old Bi's family is also quite difficult. There are two daughters and a son in the family, both of whom are underage. With that little pension, life must be unsatisfactory."

"With these ten catties of sugar, it should be better!" Xu Dong comforted.

"This year will definitely be fine, but it will be hard to say next year."

"The big deal is that next year I will do another wave of benefits."

Director Li showed surprise: "It's true, don't fool me old man."

"Just wait and see!"

"Great, if we can come here once a year, everyone's life will be much better." Director Li said with anticipation.

"I'll try my best!" Xu Dong didn't finish his sentence.

"Oh, let's not talk about it, let's go upstairs quickly and try to finish all the runs today."

"it is good."

In less than 5 minutes, the two reached the fifth floor.

"Dong dong dong..."

"Crack... who are you looking for?"

The person who opened the door was a junior high school student wearing a T-shirt. Xu Dong and Director Li were both wearing police uniforms, so the little girl wasn't too nervous.

"Excuse me, is this Bi Xian's home?"

The little girl nodded and said with a lonely face:

"Are you here to find my father? My father has passed away."

"We are your father's colleagues, is your mother at home?" Xu Dong asked.

"At home, come in!" The little girl stepped aside and invited the two into the house, "Mom, there are guests at home."

Today is Sunday, and Mrs. Bi happened to be at home.

"Who? Are you?"

"We are Bi Xian's old colleagues. We heard that he passed away, so we came here to visit."

Director Li replied.

"Please sit down, the house is a little messy, don't mind!"

When Mrs. Bi heard that she was her husband's colleague, she quickly asked them to sit down.

ps: Ask for recommended tickets and monthly tickets!
