The leisurely life of the reborn daddy
Chapter 1172 The Stubborn Old Man Cao
You can get 7 yuan after working for 1000 days, and there are bonuses, and the food is not bad either. This treatment is already very high for many students who work and study.
In the end, the school’s logistics management office stepped in to calm the situation down.
A list of 300 people who were eligible for work-study programs was selected and reported to the Municipal Bureau of Culture and Tourism, which then notified Caojiazhuang to make arrangements for the matching of these students.
"Shujie, 300 students will come to help us in a few days." Cheng Xiaolin said.
"Are 300 enough?" Cao Shujie was a little confused.
Last year, we recruited 300 students to work and study.
But it was still very tight last year, and we didn’t have enough staff in the end.
We are also planning to hold a theme fair this year, which also requires manpower. People from Caojiazhuang will be transferred back, so more students will be needed to help.
"If it's not enough, then look for it nearby?" Cheng Xiaolin asked her husband.
Cao Shujie felt that in this case, it would be better to increase the number of work-study quotas. He felt that these work-study students might be more dedicated.
What's more, they are young and smart, so if anything happens, they can react quickly.
"That's fine. Otherwise, you can talk to Director Pan and see about adding 100 more places." Cheng Xiaolin said.
Cao Shujie called Pan Jianglong again and asked him to help get more people.
Upon hearing this, Pan Jianglong immediately called his friend at Yiling University and asked him to help recruit another 100 people.
"Old Pan, why are there so many people in Caojiazhuang?" His friend was also puzzled.
300 people are already a lot, and we need to add 100 more.
Pan Jianglong asked his friend: "Do you remember how many people went to Caojiazhuang last year?"
"I remember you told me last year that the number of tourists exceeded one million. It was one of the tourist attractions in our province that exceeded one million during the two National Day holidays, right?"
His friend doubted the authenticity of the data and asked, "Lao Pan, it's been so long, can you tell me whether this data is true or false?"
Pan Jianglong thought to himself, if you were in front of me, I would scratch you immediately, and he actually doubted the accuracy of the data.
In fact, after compiling this data, not only his friends, but even Pan Jianglong himself doubted the authenticity of this data.
But this is a real data record.
The statistics of Caojiazhuang Children's Theme Park and Mengmeng Orchard are combined together. It is undeniable that there are overlapping data. But even if the overlapping data is removed, can you imagine what it means to receive hundreds of thousands of people in 7 days?
It’s really hard to deal with those people in Caojiazhuang.
"Just tell me whether you will give it to the person or not?" Pan Jianglong finally asked his friend.
If Yiling University doesn't give it to him, Pan Jianglong can only ask other schools. A living person can't be suffocated to death by a pee.
Hearing Pan Jianglong's tone, his friend knew it was almost time, so he didn't say any more nonsense and told him, "I'll prepare the people for you."
"But let's be frank. These 400 children must be returned to me intact. If any one of them has an accident, even if you are the director, I will never forgive you."
Pan Jianglong quickly responded: "Of course, don't worry, I will definitely return everything to you."
After hanging up the phone, Pan Jianglong looked at the disconnected phone, feeling a lot of emotions.
Even though he is the head of the bureau, he now feels that he is not as successful as his friend who doesn't have so many troubles.
Unlike him, who is in charge of culture and tourism, he has to consider how to develop this area well. Otherwise, how will he answer when his superiors ask him about it?
The people of Caojiazhuang have also found that their village is particularly busy during this period.
Everyone is preparing for the Mid-Autumn Festival and National Day.
Secretary Jianlong's daughter is also busy organizing a themed market, which she says will last for eight consecutive days.
Everyone was a little confused about this market. They only heard that the market did not sell things like rice, flour, grain, oil, vegetables, and fresh produce, but instead sold targeted handicrafts and snacks that were representative of history.
After this rumor spread in Caojiazhuang, people were confused because they didn't know how to make those snacks, and they didn't know how to make those handicrafts either.
Who should be allowed to sell things at this market?
There has been no definitive answer, but some people have heard that this wave of sellers came from outside, but they still haven’t figured out what’s going on.
The moon was at its zenith and the stars were blinking in the sky, looking at the people below hurrying home and the street lights that were about to be turned off.
The Mid-Autumn Festival on August 15 is only a few days away. The moon is obviously brighter during this period, and people who stay outside are preparing to take advantage of this rare holiday to rush back home and reunite with their families.
This year, National Day and Mid-Autumn Festival are together. For many people who miss home very much, it is a good opportunity to go back home and stay for a while. They are very happy.
The same was true for Cao Shuxu during this period.
He has been busy outside for the past two years, especially since Yaxu Electronics Factory has entered a period of rapid development in the past two years. Cao Shuxu rarely has time to have a good rest at home like this time.
After leaving the things at home, Cao Shuxu did not rush to find Cao Shujie, nor did he rush to call Cao Shujie. Instead, he accompanied his wife and children to stroll around Caojiazhuang first.
Seeing that Caojiazhuang is being planned better and better, the houses built are all of the same style, and there are ink paintings on the walls. Now there is almost no trace of the old and dilapidated village that I used to remember.
The osmanthus trees planted on both sides of the road are also blooming with small yellow flowers, exuding a rich osmanthus fragrance. Passing by them, the smell of osmanthus will make you intoxicated.
His wife Ding Yunan was standing next to the osmanthus tree and asked him to take a picture.
"Shuxu, hurry up, this smells so good." Ding Yunan took a few deep breaths.
She felt that the scent of this flower was stronger than that of the osmanthus air freshener, so much so that Ding Yunan began to doubt whether the osmanthus-scented air freshener she had bought before was real or fake.
Their son Cao Yizi was standing right next to them, watching his parents taking pictures, and he felt helpless.
He thought about telling his parents to hurry up, but when he saw his mother posing for several photos and asking his father to help take the photo, Cao Yizi felt that it would take more than 5 minutes to finish taking the photos.
He himself was thinking about walking forward and visiting other places, but looking at the people coming and going in Caojiazhuang, Cao Yizi felt a little scared.
There were so many people coming to play that Cao Yizi was really afraid of getting lost in the crowd with his parents.
It will be troublesome then.
After his parents finally finished taking pictures, Cao Yizi ran over, hugged his mother's arm, and dragged her north.
"Mom, hurry up, don't we still have to go to the orchard to pick apples?" Cao Yizi said loudly.
Ding Yunan seemed to have just remembered this matter. She cried out and shouted for her husband Cao Shuxu to leave quickly.
There is a patch of apple trees in Mengmeng Orchard, and the apples planted at this time are ripe.
This year, they managed to catch up, and Ding Yunan really wanted to eat apples. Cao Shuxu remembered this and decided to take his wife and son to the mountain to pick some apples.
However, when they came out of their homes and saw so many people walking back and forth in the village, they were thinking in their hearts that the apples on the mountain must not have been picked all.
Ding Yunan knew he was in a hurry this time, so he took his son's hand and walked north quickly.
She turned around and said to her husband Cao Shuxu: "Shuxu, you walk slowly, we will go first."
Knowing that her husband would stop to chat and smoke when he met acquaintances in the village, Ding Yunan didn't bother to care about him this time and let him go. This is how it is in the countryside. If you don't chat for a while when you meet, others will think you are looked down upon.
If you don't pass out cigarettes, it seems like you're not doing well in the outside world.
After Ding Yunan finished speaking, she didn't wait for her husband to respond. She turned around and saw that her husband had already started chatting with someone else and was sharing the cigarette he had taken out of his pocket.
"Mom, let's go quickly. Let Dad walk by himself. We won't wait for him." Cao Yizi followed.
Ding Yunan also felt that she didn't need to wait for her husband anymore.
The mother and son jogged all the way, following the crowd going up the mountain to Mengmeng Orchard. After asking someone, they headed straight to the apple orchard.
Cao Shujie planted more than 30 acres of apples here, and the apples are just ripe at this time.
Letting her son Cao Yizi carry a basket, the mother and son came to the apple orchard. At a glance, they saw that the place was full of people, all busy picking apples under the trees.
These apples don’t look very eye-catching, nor do they look shiny and glossy like the apples that are specially bagged when opened, but these apples taste good and are very sweet.
Someone picked one and ate it in the orchard. Looking at the juice dripping from the corner of his mouth, I knew that these apples were very juicy.
When Cao Yizi saw others eating apples, he wanted to eat one too.
"Mom." Cao Yizhi looked at his mother.
Ding Yunan picked a small one and handed it to him: "Eat it."
Cao Yizi took it and wiped it with paper. He did not rush to put it into his mouth, but let his mother taste it first.
Ding Yunan was very happy to see that her son was sensible. She took a small bite and then said to her son, "You eat it."
The flesh is light yellow when bitten open, and looks like crystals of rock sugar, which makes people very appetizing.
And when you bite it in your mouth, it feels as sweet as candy.
Cao Yizi didn't mind that the apple had been bitten by his mother. He opened his mouth and started to chew it with big bites. He enjoyed the eating very much.
After seeing this, Ding Yunan started picking apples.
I was thinking about picking more today and taking them home to eat.
……
At the foot of Mengmeng Orchard, Cao Shuxu walked all the way from the south and chatted with the villagers along the way, never stopping to hand out cigarettes.
He had five packs of cigarettes on him when he left home, and now only the last pack was left.
When Cao Shuxu arrived at the foot of the mountain and was about to go up, he suddenly saw Cao Shujie's father Cao Jianguo setting up a stall at the foot of the mountain.
He thought he had seen it wrong, but when he looked carefully, he saw bread, milk, and bowls of eight-treasure porridge on the stall. He was very puzzled and walked over to greet Cao Jianguo, and handed him a cigarette: "Uncle Guo, why are you still setting up a stall?"
Cao Jianguo turned his head furtively and glanced at the door of his house. When he didn't see his wife, he took the cigarette from Cao Shuxu and asked, "Shuxu, when did you come back?"
Seeing him like this, Cao Shuxu knew that Cao Jianguo was hiding and smoking.
He smiled and said to Cao Jianguo: "Uncle Guo, I just came back, and my wife wanted to go to the mountain to pick some apples to eat."
"Just go and pick them. The apples are just ripe. This year's apples are sweeter than in previous years." Cao Jianguo started chatting with him.
Cao Jianguo also told him: "Shujie went to town today, he will have to wait for a while before returning."
Cao Shuxu waved his hand: "Uncle Guo, I'm not looking for Shujie."
"Where are your wife and children?" Cao Jianguo said as he took a bag, opened it, put a few loaves of bread in it, and then put a few boxes of milk in it.
He then handed it to Cao Shuxu: "This bread is made by us, take it and try it."
Cao Shuxu wanted to refuse, but Cao Jianguo glared at him and said, "If you don't take it, don't call me uncle."
What else can Cao Shuxu do?
He reached out to take it and said thank you several times.
"Just take it and eat it. I converted the old house into a bakery. All the bread here is made by ourselves, so it's very clean. I sell the unsold bread at a low price on the same day." Cao Jianguo told him.
It is true. The bread from Cao Jianguo is very popular now. Some people come here to visit and buy a few more loaves of bread from Cao Jianguo before leaving to take back.
Different from other bakeries, Cao Jianguo does not use messy ingredients and the taste is also very good, so everyone likes it.
Some people also say that if you go to Caojiazhuang, you must buy some fruits from Mengmeng Orchard. If you can’t buy fruits from Mengmeng Orchard, you must buy bread at the foot of the mountain.
This is referring to the bread that Cao Jianguo sells at his stall.
"Uncle Guo, I'll go upstairs first and come down to find you later." Cao Shuxu said to Cao Jianguo.
Cao Jianguo waved his hand and told him to get busy.
At this time, there were still many tourists who came to visit and were queuing in front of the stall to buy his bread.
Cao Jianguo is also very busy.
After seeing Cao Shuxu off, Cao Jianguo sold another box of bread. Suddenly, he heard someone behind him ask, "Lao Cao, are you smoking?"
It was the voice of his wife Wang Yuelan.
Cao Jianguo said subconsciously: "No, who smoked? Who smoked?"
It seemed like he was saying that he would get angry with anyone who dared to smoke.
But Wang Yuelan clearly smelled cigarette smoke on her husband, but she was too lazy to expose him.
"Who were you chatting with just now?" Wang Yuelan asked.
When Cao Jianguo mentioned Cao Shuxu, Wang Yuelan recognized the name.
She also asked her husband: "Is Shuxu here to look for Shujie?"
Cao Jianguo shook his head, pointed to the mountain and said to his wife, "Shuxu, bring your wife and children back to pick apples on the mountain."
After listening to this, Wang Yuelan didn't ask any more questions.
Before leaving, she said, "Lao Cao, don't be so ignorant. You have children at home. Why do you smoke?"
"How could I smoke? Which eye did you see me smoking?" Cao Jianguo was unconvinced and shouted loudly.
Wang Yuelan said casually: "I don't even want to expose you, look at your fingers, they have turned yellow from the smoke."
"Impossible, I just smoked one, how could it be..."
He was about to say how smoking a cigarette could turn yellow, but before he could finish, he knew he had been fooled. (End of this chapter)
