In the afternoon, the third unit office of the steel rolling mill.
They haven't gone out since they came back from outside. Even lunch was bought by those who lost in the game from a trip to the canteen.
There weren't many people in the cafeteria today, so it was very convenient to buy food.
"We have a holiday here in the afternoon after get off work, right?" Li Ming was still very concerned about his holiday.
Chief Xu nodded, "Although the salary is closed early this year, the annual leave is also long. This year should be the longest holiday in the past few years."
"When do we go to work after the Chinese New Year?"
"Third grade, our Purchasing Department has nothing to do anyway, it doesn't make any difference if we start earlier or later."
Wu Gang slumped down comfortably on his chair and took over the conversation.
"That's for sure. I guess it won't be easy to harvest the unplanned grain after the Chinese New Year, but I'm afraid the factory will impose strict requirements by then."
"Don't worry about these ridiculous things. If it were a hard and fast rule, no one would fulfill it!" Xu Qiang explained with a smile, "After all, we all have less to eat and less to wear, so no matter how much you ask, it won't be of any use, right?"
After hearing the news he wanted to know, Li Ming didn't plan to sit in the office all the time. He planned to chat with his cheap uncle for a while. After all, idleness was idleness.
Besides, it’s all about pay, and the Chinese New Year is just around the corner. If I don’t go there, how will I know if my dear god-uncle Li Huaide has prepared anything for me?
"I went out to use the bathroom, is anyone there?"
"No, no, no!"
"You can go alone in the cold weather."
"You can't hold it in for a while. If you can't hold it in anymore, talk again!"
"Then I can't stand it. I'll go by myself without any of you." Li Ming just found an excuse to sneak out. After all, no one would really go to the toilet together.
It's not the middle of the night, the old man has nothing to do before going to the toilet!
. . . . . .
Office of the Director of the Rolling Mill Logistics Department.
"Boom!"
"Come in!" Li Huaide packed up the information on the desk. There were two large pockets on the desk. Apart from that, there was nothing related to work on the desk.
"Hey, why did Mingzi think of coming to see me today?" When Li Huaide saw that the person he recognized as his nephew came in through the door, he was not polite, he just joked and threw a cigarette over.
Li Ming stretched out his hand, and the cigarette fell exactly between his two fingers.
"Your hands are pretty smooth, kid!"
Li Ming was so happy, did he really think that the locust stone was thrown away in vain? How can I happily be the sixth child if my reaction speed is so poor?
"Hey, isn't this about pay today? I'm thinking of wishing you a happy birthday!"
Li Huaide waved his hands, with a look of disbelief on his face, "You kid will never come to my place if you have nothing to do, and you won't come if you have something to do. You said you would wish me a good year! I don't believe it!"
Li Ming lit a cigarette for himself and sat on the sofa, "I just wanted to come and see you. When the New Year comes, you won't be able to see me, right?"
"Oh, that's because your Uncle Li misunderstood you. Then let me put away the things I prepared for you. I thought you came to me for some New Year gifts or something!"
Li Huaide took out a small bag from under his desk with a smirk on his face and waved it in front of Li Ming's eyes.
Called a small bag, it was much larger than the one Li Ming got this morning. It was just a little smaller compared to the two bags on Li Huaide's desk.
Li Ming's eyes lit up. Unexpectedly, there was such an unexpected gain!
"It's okay, Uncle Li, you've prepared everything for me. I can't change your mind!" Li Ming came to Li Huaide before he finished speaking and transferred the bag in Li Huaide's hand to his own.
Li Huaide glanced at Li Ming angrily, "You're the only one who's so slippery! I thought the steel rolling mill's tariffs didn't have anything good for you this year, so I asked for something good in advance, so you can take it home and eat it!"
Li Ming laughed happily, and didn't pay attention to Li Huaide's eyes. He looked through his pockets and said, "Oh! Cans, and there's even a can of malted milk! Uncle Li is so awesome!"
After finishing the work, he took out another plate of lard from his pocket and said, "Tsk, tsk, Uncle Li, this is not something that can be made in a steel rolling mill!"
"Just keep what Uncle Li gives you! I have taken advantage of you a lot this year, and now there is no good thing for you to do. I can only fill in these things for you."
Li Huaide lit a cigarette for himself. The more he looked at Li Ming, the more he liked him. If he didn't have a girl in his family, he would have to match him up!
Li Ming was not polite when he heard what Li Huaide said. These things are indeed very precious in this era, but people from later generations have not eaten less of the good things? I don't really care, it's what Li Huaide wants anyway.
"Hehe, thank you then. I can just take it back to replenish it for my sister!"
Li Ming said with a smile.
"Well, no problem. When your family or others ask, just say that you did a good job and I rewarded you. If anyone has any opinions, just ask them to come to me!"
"Uncle Li is domineering!"
It's not without reason that Li Huaide, the character in the original play, was able to ride on the wind. At least he was very good at winning people's hearts.
Give benefits when they are due, that is quite heartless!
"Okay, stop making jokes with me here, get out of here! Uncle Li, I originally planned to leave early, but now I'm going to delay you for a while!"
"Okay, okay, you are the biggest one today, what do you say?" Li Ming didn't have any objection at all. He got a lot of benefits from coming here, let alone being kicked out now, as long as Li Huaide can give him every day , then it’s not impossible for him to be kicked out every day!
Li Ming picked up the things in his hands without being polite, turned around and left the office, found a deserted corner and stuffed them into his own space, let's work together!
As for taking it out in a big way, it's not impossible, but it would be better to avoid trouble. Especially if you bring it back to the courtyard in a big way, it will be even more troublesome!
It's better for him to take it home secretly and enjoy it. Youdao is not worried about the scarcity but the inequality. Who knows if the crazy animals in the courtyard will cause trouble for Li Ming and cause trouble? ?
After all, those beasts in the courtyard are really incapable of doing anything, eat whatever they want, and are capable of causing trouble. Everyone from all over the country knows it!
