As soon as he said these words, Yu Changle was immediately confused - was he being polite or not?
He didn't react for a while, so he responded reflexively: "That...of course, I will treat you to dinner."
When Liu Bo saw the unnatural redness in Zhou Zhiqiang's dark face, he immediately realized that this melon thief had impure motives.
But in front of Yu Changle, it was hard to disgrace his buddy, so he could only make up for it:
"I was the one who introduced this order in Changle. You can't miss out on me when you eat."
Yu Changle quickly answered: "That's for sure. We are all good friends. Dining is fun when there are more people!"
Seeing that their date turned into a threesome, Zhou Zhiqiang was so anxious that he kept winking at Liu Bo.
Liu Bo pretended not to see it and reminded Yu Changle: "Didn't you say you want to go to the supply and marketing cooperative? If you don't go to their house, you will get off work."
As soon as he reminded him, Yu Changle quickly left:
"Brother Zhou, I'll leave it to you to order these things. The bed is also included in the order. I'll pick it up together tomorrow!"
After hearing Yu Changle talking to him, Zhou Zhiqiang stopped glaring at Liu Bo and instead put on a smile:
"Okay, just rest assured, I'll do a good job for you tomorrow! That model shouldn't be a big problem!"
He was determined to leave a good impression on Yu Changle, even if he pestered his master to make the model no matter what.
Coming out of the Red Star Timber Factory, Liu Bo was a little embarrassed:
"Zhou Zhiqiang is such a stupid guy, and he also speaks a bit bluntly. Changle, don't take it to heart. Just ignore him. I'll just treat him to dinner when the time comes."
Yu Changle had recovered from his shock and said with a smile:
"Brother Zhou is a nice person. He is a warm-hearted person like you, Brother Bo. If you want to have a meal, I will treat you when I get settled."
Liu Bo was too embarrassed to explain his words clearly to Yu Changle, so he could only agree with him, and he made up his mind to turn around and speak clearly to Zhou Zhiqiang.
Jia Le is a military wife. If he has any thoughts that he shouldn't have, stop it as soon as possible!
Entering the supply and marketing cooperative, the salesperson at the supply and marketing cooperative recognized Yu Changle at a glance. Who told her that she had bought tens of dollars of fabric in one go last time, but she had never seen anyone buy cloth so arrogantly.
He immediately greeted him enthusiastically: "Hello, comrade, do you still want to buy cloth today? Our club has received another batch of floral cloth. Do you want to show it to you?"
Yu Changle smiled and shook his head. He looked around first, but didn't find what he wanted to buy, so he asked, "Hello, do you have any sewing machines for sale?"
Sewing machines are big items these days, and only those with good financial conditions would be willing to buy one when they get married. Normally, no one would buy one, so supply and marketing cooperatives usually don't have it in stock.
The somewhat surprised salesman glanced at Yu Changle, then at Liu Bo who was following him, and suddenly understood.
The young couple who are about to get married are preparing their dowry. No wonder they bought so much fabric last time, including new quilts, new mattresses, and new clothes. Why don't you buy more?
Looking at it this way, the man is tall and powerful, and the woman is plump and beautiful. They are a perfect match!
Automatically remembering a love story about a young man and woman about to get married, the salesperson said with a smile: "No today, but you can apply to the superior supply and marketing cooperative, and it will arrive in a week. Do you have a sewing ticket or a national industrial ticket?"
This stumped Yu Changle. After all, she didn't come from the era of bills. She didn't expect that sewing machines also had special bills.
Liu Bo saw that Yu Changle's expression was a bit awkward, and immediately answered: "Yes, please help us apply for one."
As he spoke, he took out a National Industrial Ticket from the pocket where his ID was held. This is a good thing. Not only can he buy a sewing machine, but he can also buy bicycles, radios, etc. He can buy a lot of in-demand goods!
The salesperson's eyes lit up when he saw him taking out the National Industrial Ticket: "Comrade, can I discuss something with you? Since you want to buy a sewing machine, can I exchange my sewing ticket with you for this National Industrial Ticket?" "
Of course Liu Bo knew that this was a bad deal, but since he was going to use this ticket to buy a sewing machine for Chang Le, it didn't matter and he agreed immediately.
Yu Changle hurriedly stopped: "How can that be done? I want to buy this sewing machine and I can't use your ticket."
The salesperson misunderstood what Yu Changle meant and thought that the sewing machine was Yu Changle's dowry, so she tried to persuade her: "Oh, little girl, you all came together to buy a sewing machine. How can you use yours and mine? It's so clear who should use it." Is it different?"
Liu Bo handed the ticket to the salesperson: "Okay, I'll exchange this ticket for you, and the sewing machine will definitely apply for it for us!"
Before Yu Changle could reach out to take the ticket back, the salesperson quickly put the ticket back into his pocket and smiled from ear to ear:
"Don't worry, just buy it in a week, and I will definitely apply for it back for you."
After saying that, he said to Yu Changle with a smile: "Little girl, you are so lucky. It's hard to find such a generous partner!"
Both of them were shocked when they heard this and hurriedly explained:
"No, we are not a couple!"
The salesperson gave a friendly smile like someone who has come before: "I know, you young people are shy. You are not shy yet, but you will be in a short time!"
...
The two left the supply and marketing cooperative in embarrassment, but they still couldn't convince the salesperson that they were really not a couple.
In order to resolve the embarrassment, Liu Bo pretended to smile grandly and said: "Hey, we don't need to explain to her that these middle-aged women like to gossip about people the most. Even if there is no gossip, they will still create gossip."
Yu Changle was amused, but he still felt a little sorry: "Brother Bo, I will return your ticket to you as soon as possible!"
"It's okay, my mother asked me to prepare that ticket..."
Liu Bo suddenly stopped mid-sentence and coughed unnaturally, "It's not needed now anyway, so don't worry about it."
Then he suddenly remembered something and asked: "However, that sewing machine is not cheap. You have only paid three months' rent. Do you still have so much money in your hand?"
The salesperson just said that a sewing machine costs 175 yuan, which is equivalent to the salary of an ordinary worker without food or water for more than half a year.
Can Yu Changle really afford such a huge sum of money?
Yu Changle nodded affirmatively. Lao Ding promised her that the balance would be received at the beginning of the month, so she was not worried at all that she could not afford to buy a sewing machine.
Liu Bo still didn't believe it: "Don't be polite to me, I still have some savings, why don't I lend it to you to use first?"
Yu Changle was completely moved by Liu Bo, a good man. There must be such a warm-hearted and good young man these days.
If Liu Bo hadn't always been frank and frank when facing him, no matter how enthusiastic he was, not only the salesman, but also Yu Changle would have suspected whether he was attracted to her.
"Brother Bo, don't worry, I have money to buy a sewing machine. If it's really not enough, I will definitely ask you to borrow it!"
