The Red Era: Starting from Being an Educated Youth in the Countryside

Chapter 4: Making Money in the Cotton Mill
The Second Cotton Mill.

After layers of screening and signing a bunch of documents, we were finally allowed to pass and the car drove into the spacious cotton mill.

After sitting in the car for most of the day, I felt sore all over. After getting out of the car, I moved my sore body. My eyes rolled around and I kept approaching the driver.

"Brother, this factory is really grand. If you hadn't led me here, I wouldn't have had the chance to see it. This trip is worth it."

The driver raised his chin proudly and said, "Be diligent, young man. I'll take you out again to broaden your horizons if there's a chance."

At this time, Section Chief Liu came out and the driver had no time to chat with him.

He walked up to her and started chatting enthusiastically, handing her cigarettes and flattering her. The scene was exactly the same as Chen Huaiyang's bootlicking just now, except that the object of his flattery had changed.

Chen Huaiyang lowered his presence and followed beside, acting as if he was ignorant, looking left and right, with an expression of humbly seeking advice.

After a conversation, the driver went over to check the goods. It was indeed the cloth that was purchased on a regular basis. He ordered the required cloth. Section Chief Liu said, "It's too late today. Take your lunch boxes and go eat first."

Section Chief Liu said, "You guys go ahead, I'll go get a lunch box."

The driver nodded frequently and followed the workers' pace.

It was the time to get off work, and workers were gathering in one direction in an endless stream, moving at a fast pace.

The driver's mouth watered as he smelled the aroma, and his pace became more impatient. "Hurry up, we've already eaten a lot of food this morning."

"It's so hard to get a chance to have a meal, we can't waste it."

"The food in this cafeteria is something I will miss every time I eat it. It will definitely be worth the trip once you try it."

He was familiar with the place and led the people to the cafeteria. He looked at the cafeteria lady and asked, "Do you have braised pork?"

The cafeteria lady glanced and said without hesitation, "No more, only these are in front of us."

The driver licked his lips and swallowed. Chen Huaiyang said with great insight, "Brother, wait aside. I'll get the food."

White rice, 4 liang of food coupons, cents.

Dried tofu with hot peppers, 60 cents.

Scrambled eggs with tomatoes, Sanmao.

Green vegetables, 6 points.

The same amount of 2 servings cost a total of 2.16 yuan. The only thing that was expensive was the food coupons. However, the dishes were piled high, with plenty of oil and water, and smelled delicious.

The driver was smiling so much that his mouth was about to burst into laughter. He had someone to help him drive, provide cigarettes for him, and most importantly, pay for his meals. It was really worth it to take these people out on this trip.

I ate voraciously, and before I knew it, the full bowl of rice was gone. My stomach was full and I felt very comfortable.

The driver burped, looked at Chen Huaiyang and said, "Brother, I plan to find a woman tonight. Do you want to go with me to see some?"

"The women out there are very experienced and good at coaxing people. Do you want to try some sex?"

When Chen Huaiyang heard this, his face turned red and he waved his hands hurriedly, showing his very childish side.

"Brother, I'm shy, please don't make fun of me. I'll stay here for you to watch over the truck. I'll just stay in the truck for one night and load the goods tomorrow morning."

"Come directly after you have had enough sleep, so as not to delay your departure."

The driver's eyes lit up. It was really a good deal to bring this kid out. There was someone to help with all aspects, and he didn't have to rush to get up in the morning. It couldn't be better.

The only thing is that I am still not enlightened and cannot experience the pleasure of being a woman.

"Okay, you can always sleep in the car, but don't wander around. If you get caught, I won't be able to save you!"

Chen Huaiyang nodded vigorously, "Don't worry, I will never cause any trouble for you."

"Leave the dishes here, I'll wash them later. You should hurry to the guesthouse. If you're any later, it might be dark."

The driver didn't notice anything, so he said "oh", put down his bowl and chopsticks and left.

Chen Huaiyang watched the man walk away, but he was not in a hurry to leave. He cleaned the lunch box and waited for the opportunity to come. When he saw Section Chief Liu, his eyes lit up and he hurriedly approached the man.

"Comrade leader, I'm glad to see you here. The smooth progress of our work depends on your support!"

Section Chief Liu nodded with satisfaction. Who doesn't like to be praised by others? It will give you a full sense of accomplishment.

As soon as the lady in the cafeteria saw him, she brought out the braised pork. Section Chief Liu swallowed, then looked away and ordered his usual meals as ordered.

Chen Huaiyang, who was standing by, naturally saw it as well. After the food was ready, he ordered two servings of braised pork at 1.8 yuan per portion and chicken legs at one yuan each.

5 yuan was given out instantly.

Chen Huaiyang didn't feel any pain at all.

Holding a bowl full of hot food, he walked towards Section Chief Liu.

"Comrade leader, I usually rely on your help, and there's nothing much to thank you for, so I'll just give you a dish to satisfy your hunger, and you can't refuse!"

Chen Huaiyang was also testing whether the other party had any chance of cooperation.

The dishes in this lunch box are the stepping stone.

As long as the other party takes it, there is a chance to chat with him.

If he refused without hesitation, there would be nothing to say. The thing he was thinking about would definitely not be accomplished.

Fortunately, after a long wait, the other party finally accepted it despite his hesitation.

"Young man, are you the driver we just followed?"

Chen Huaiyang leaned close to him and whispered, "You came out with my brother to see the world. He always said that he had no chance to repay you. Don't blame me for being reckless!"

"If I do something bad with good intentions, and mess it up, my brother will definitely skin me alive."

Section Chief Liu laughed out loud, "Your sincerity will never be wasted."

After Section Chief Liu had eaten, he washed the lunch box and then divided the meat and vegetables between them. This amount of meat was only eaten once or twice a month.

To support a large family, one cannot squander money.

"Comrade leader, my brother said he has something to discuss with you. Is there a hidden place?"

"Those who can improve their lives and make a lot of money."

Section Chief Liu became nervous instantly, his heart was pounding, he looked around casually, his just relaxed expression became tense, and he immediately pushed the meat in the bowl in front of the other party.

"Young man, you have to be down-to-earth and not aim too high!" His job is stable. If he messes up, his whole family will be in trouble.

So when something is dangerous, I just refuse it without thinking.

Chen Huaiyang held the other person's hand and said, "Comrade leader, let's discuss this. If you think it's inappropriate, I will shut up immediately."

"Who doesn't want to live a bright and open life and be treated differently by others?"

"With money in hand, you can do things more steadily."

"The opportunity is right in front of you, comrade leader, are you sure you want to miss it?"

"I will handle this matter from beginning to end. If you are caught, you can directly shirk responsibility and don't have to bear any responsibility."

"Take advantage of your position and wait for the money to come. Whether you dare to do it or not depends on your order."
