Chapter 235: Those Years in the Great Northern Wilderness (71)

The supply and marketing point was set up during National Day. It is not a big place and does not sell many things. It mainly sells oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, soap, towels, toothpaste, toothbrushes and other items. It is also responsible for purchasing dry goods, eggs and other agricultural and sideline products from the farm.

Lingxi did not apply for the job, as the supply and marketing clerk was directly appointed. The two little guys were curious, so Lingxi accompanied them to the newly opened supply and marketing point to buy cakes.

The varieties were limited, with only red bean paste bars, peanut bars, and peach cakes, which were very broken. But the two children loved them and shook Lingxi's arm pitifully, muttering that they wanted to eat them.

Then buy some, one piece of each. The two children ate their snacks and didn’t leave, but squatted at the door to watch the fun. There were quite a lot of people, one wanted to buy soy sauce, and another wanted to buy eggs.

The supply and marketing clerk was running back and forth, with an visibly annoyed look on his face.

At this time, an old lady said, "Your account is wrong. I bought salt for 15 cents and gave you one dollar. One dollar is 10 cents, 10 minus 1 equals 9, 0 minus 1 equals 10, 0 minus 5 equals 5, you should give me 95 cents. I asked my grandson before I came here."

This calculation seems to be correct? The girl was stunned and wanted to take another dime.

Yi An chuckled, pulled her back and said, "Sister, it's 85 cents, not 95 cents."

The little girl hurriedly fiddled with the abacus beads. Oops, she was almost tricked by the old lady, so she started arguing with her.

After finally dealing with this one, another grandma came to sell eggs. She was deaf and couldn't hear clearly, so she had to shout to communicate with people.

Seeing that there were more and more people queuing up behind, the two children were very enthusiastic and calculated the bill for people by looking at the price tags above. Could Ling Xi just watch them calculate randomly?

They calculated wrong, and it corrected them expressionlessly. The little girl then used the abacus to check and found that they were all correct!

Looking into Lingxi's eyes is like the light of salvation.

The sun set, and the two children felt particularly accomplished, running all the way home happily. The next day, Lingxi received an olive branch.

It was the slack season during the farming season, so Lingxi had nothing to do. He could earn about 20 yuan a month by earning some work points. The key was that he could get information in advance and use his internal advantages to get some defective products.

You can also smuggle some things out of the space. As long as the accounts and the things are correct, using supply and marketing points to digest the things in the space is also a good way to make extra money.

The little girl was the daughter of the director of the county supply and marketing cooperative. Her father arranged for her to work on the farm not to avoid her from going to the countryside. It can be said that they contributed a lot to the rapid opening of the farm's supply and marketing point.

The old father knew very well what his daughter was like, and he let Lingxi go to prevent her from making any mistakes. Therefore, Lingxi had full authority over the supply and marketing point, and the girl just had to sign in and punch the clock to get by.

If there is a chance, people will still go back to the city.

It can be said that all supply and marketing points are supported by Lingxi.

There are other people who envy them, but literacy, calculation and bookkeeping are a hurdle. The educated youth can learn them, but why should we give them the chance?

By this time, Yun Tinglan had already remembered who Lu Zhiqing was.

An old educated youth has been on the farm for four years. He is usually honest and efficient at work, but he comes from a poor family, as his family is a national capitalist family. Therefore, he has been very low-key since coming to the farm, neither standing out nor falling behind, and has a very low sense of existence.

Is she trying to get a job? Her background alone is enough to stop her.

No, they went there to see Secretary Xu.

This is a bit hard to say.

Lanny leaned over to Yun Tinglan's ear and said, "Just now, Old Ren saw her dressed up like a butterfly and quietly slipped into the granary."

The granary in the nearby Shitoutun suddenly caught fire, and most of the grain was lost. The cause is still unknown. Xu Jianmin was worried that it was sabotage by spies, so he was particularly alert and personally led people to patrol near the granary in the past few days.

It was his turn to be on duty tonight, and Yi An brought him dinner on his bicycle. Being alone with a man and a woman at night was indeed easy to make people think of something wrong.

However, Yun Tinglan still believed in Xu Jianmin's character.

In terms of appearance, Lu Zhiqing is not as good as Chen Dandan. In terms of age difference, Lu Zhiqing is younger. Xu Jianmin will never choose her. Besides, he seems to be... really interested in Ling Xi.

Can you imagine that a rough guy like him who doesn't care about food will one day bring back meat patties that he thinks are delicious and give them to others?

The weather was more than ten degrees below zero. When I came back from the county town, the meat pie was still warm. I could only put the meat pie in my arms and bring it back while it was still hot.

Ling Xi later confirmed this when she gave him some burn ointment.

Although both ended up in the mouths of the twins, one could still see that Xu Jianmin treated Ling Xi differently.

To be honest, Yun Tinglan felt a little guilty. Lingxi could only simulate human emotions but not have real emotions. At least for now, it had not evolved human emotions.

The only real emotion she had was confusion. She was completely unable to respond to Xu Jianmin's feelings, let alone become a real couple. She didn't give it that function.

Serving him three meals a day like an all-round nanny and taking care of his food, clothing, housing and transportation is already the limit of what Ling Xi can do.

Putting aside her thoughts, Yun Tinglan said that she understood. After sending Lan Ni away, she asked Ling Xi to scan the situation at the granary. She hoped that Lu Zhiqing just wanted to use... as a bargaining chip to get Xu Jianmin to help her return to the city or get a teacher's quota, instead of deliberately drugging or framing Xu Jianmin to threaten him with this.

Here, Xu Jianmin looked at the female educated youth who suddenly appeared in the granary, then fell to the ground inexplicably, and fell towards him. He dodged instinctively without any sympathy for her.

He looked at her sharply, "This is an important granary. Who asked you to come here?"

The suspicious look made Lu Zhiqing's face freeze. She had finally made up her mind to sacrifice herself, but she didn't expect to throw a wink to the blind man.

Isn't her implication obvious enough?

Lu Zhiqing bit her lip tightly, feeling aggrieved. Since the euphemistic way didn't work, she would just play it straight. She didn't believe there were men in the world who didn't cheat. It was just that the temptation was not big enough.

Xu Jianmin is older, but he also has a lot of power. Moreover, he and Aunt Yun are just living together and they haven't held a wedding banquet or gotten a marriage certificate, so she is not interfering.

If she could really marry him, she might be able to use his help to help her family out of its predicament.

However, no matter how beautiful her imagination is, she still needs Xu Jianmin's cooperation.

She had just unbuttoned a button of her clothes when Xu Jianmin walked up to the gate and, contrary to common sense, opened the door of the granary. There were several people standing outside, and it was unclear whether they were going in or not.

When those people came face to face with Xu Jianmin, they immediately looked embarrassed and wondered how they could explain themselves so as not to be hated by their boss.

Then Xu Jianmin shouted, "How could you guard the warehouse? You actually let a female educated youth sneak in! Take her away for a thorough investigation. Why did she come to the granary? Is she related to the previous fire?"

The ambiguous looks in those people's eyes were immediately replaced by vigilance.

Lu Zhiqing: “…”

She's not, she doesn't, she just...

Just what? In exchange for a favor.

She couldn't say it. If she did, even if she was having an affair, she would still be cheated. She couldn't just say that she was lost, because she would expect them to believe her!

For a moment, I didn't know how to defend myself.

Crazy? Sick?

Yun Tinglan was shocked when she learned about the follow-up. This direction...she really didn't expect it.

What caught them off guard was the series of consequences that followed this incident.
