Chapter 18 - Chapter 18: Divination~You Have the Disaster of Blood and Light

Early the next morning, Li You got up and got busy. Different from a few days ago when everything depended on Li You himself. After learning that setting up a stall to sell cold noodles could really make money, Li Shankui asked Li Na to specifically stay at home to assist Li You. Naturally, Li You was happy to see this! To be honest, with the work points of three cents for a workpoint in the production team, Li You really didn't care. After all, for a girl like the third sister, after working hard for a whole day, she could only get seven or eight workpoints at most, which was only a little more than twenty cents when calculated. That's right, it's just twenty cents! This is still a good year. In the case of a disaster year with no harvest at all, there would be no twenty cents even for a whole day. This is also why the educated youth are eager to return to the city, and the girls in the countryside would rather find a worse man and marry into the city. With the help of Li Na, Li You had everything ready before nine o'clock. Then, he drove the mule cart and went to the county town again. But this time he didn't bring Li Na, not that he didn't want to, but that he couldn't! Although it's already 1980 now, the attitude of the above towards the private economy and industry and commerce has not been completely clarified. For example, the famous "Fool Melon Seeds", just because of selling melon seeds, was caught and released several times. Therefore, there is still a risk in setting up a stall now, and if you are not careful, you will be sentenced to speculation and profiteering! Li You himself is not afraid and has a countermeasure, but he doesn't want Li Na to take risks with him. Seeing that her younger brother was determined not to take her to set up a stall, Li Na was really angry in her heart, but there was nothing she could do. She knew her younger brother's temper. He was definitely spoiled. No one could change what he decided. Helplessly, Li Na could only go to the educated youth spot to help that rascal look after her sister-in-law. Li Na knew that no matter the educated youth or the unmarried young people in the village, no one knew how many people were staring at Tang Ying. And some people like to be jealous when they can't get it, and gossip behind their backs because of the previous incident. She had to keep an eye on people, neither allowing others to take advantage nor being bullied by others. County town. State-owned restaurant! When Li You came over, from a distance, he saw Liu Jingshan standing at the entrance of the restaurant, looking around as if waiting for someone! Seeing Li You's familiar red mule cart, Liu Jingshan hurriedly came over! "Hahaha, Brother Li You, you finally came!" Li You said in surprise, "Brother Liu, you're not waiting for me here, are you?" "That's right. I've been waiting for you for more than an hour!" Liu Jingshan said with a smile. "Just tell me what you want, Brother Liu. How can you, the big manager of the state-owned restaurant, wait for me here!" Li You asked a little flattered. "Not hiding from Brother Li You, these two days a big leader in the city is inspecting in our Qingshan County. He eats in our state-owned restaurant every day. After eating the mushrooms you sent, that leader is very satisfied and hopes that our state-owned restaurant can regularly supply a batch of mushrooms to the state-owned restaurants in the city!" Liu Jingshan said. Li You knew that Liu Jingshan came to ask for goods from him. After all, he had only supplied a little less than two hundred catties of mushrooms to him these days. The state-owned restaurant in the county might not even be enough for itself, let alone have extra goods to supply to the city. "Do you want me to send more mushrooms?" Li You asked with a smile. "That's what it means. I don't know if Brother Li You can..." Before Liu Jingshan finished speaking, Li You directly said, "Brother Liu, you also know that mushrooms are wild fungi, and the output is not fixed. I really can't supply regularly and quantitatively!" Hearing this, a trace of disappointment flashed in Liu Jingshan's eyes, but he still nodded to show understanding. But at this time Li You changed his words again and said, "Brother Liu, although the amount of wild mushrooms can't be guaranteed, we can give priority to supplying the city. We can use some substitute products ourselves. Is that okay?" "Eh, how to say this?" Liu Jingshan hurriedly asked. "Brother Liu, in the mountains besides wild pine mushrooms and trumpet mushrooms, there are also inch mushrooms, tea tree mushrooms, white jade mushrooms, hedgehog mushrooms, etc. In addition, there are also wild fungus like wild wood ears and silver ears. These are also rare delicacies!" Then Li You continued, "I can ask the villagers in the village to pick more of these mountain goods. In the future, Brother Liu, you send the pine mushrooms and trumpet mushrooms to the city first, and we in the county will use other fungi. There shouldn't be too much impact!" Liu Jingshan thought for a while and said, "This is really a way, but I'm still a little worried in my heart!" "Brother Liu, there's nothing to worry about. Later I'll develop several new dishes for you to ensure that the performance of your state-owned restaurant is excellent!" Li You said confidently. "Okay, just do it according to your method. In the future, you will also send some other mountain goods!" "No problem!" After that, the two immediately weighed and calculated the money for the three big baskets of mushrooms that Li You brought. 187 catties, a total of 131 yuan! When Li You walked out of the state-owned restaurant with the money, he felt that he was almost floating. Although in his previous life he was worth tens of billions, but in Li You's opinion, the worth of tens of billions was not as fulfilling as this mere hundred or so yuan. It's not about how much money, but that now he has someone to share the joy with him when he earns money! And in his previous life, he could only be alone, staring blankly at the numbers in the bank account constantly increasing, numb and empty! When Li You came out of the restaurant and was about to go to the sugar factory to set up a stall, he didn't expect that a person ran over hurriedly from the outside. Because the other party's speed was very fast, Li You didn't pay attention and was directly knocked to the ground by him. "Sorry... sorry, I really have something urgent!" The other party's attitude was quite good, helping Li You up while apologizing. Li You saw that the other party was wearing olive green and also wearing a big-brimmed hat, obviously a policeman. Thinking that the other party might really have something urgent, Li You immediately said, "I'm fine, comrade. If you have something urgent, go ahead and do your business!" "That's really too grateful to you..." Just when the other party was about to leave, Li You suddenly thought of something, and then hurriedly said, "Wait a minute!" "Comrade, what else do you have?" Li You stared at his face carefully. After confirming that it was the person he was familiar with, he immediately took out a one-yuan coin from his pocket. Then he walked up to this policeman, directly put the coin in his upper pocket, and at the same time said, "Comrade, you take this!" "Comrade... fellow... We don't take a single needle or thread from the masses..." Li You smiled and said, "This money is not for you to use, but to save your life!" "Save my life?" The policeman obviously didn't understand what Li You said, looking at him with a confused face. "I see that your forehead is black, and there will be bloodshed in the near future. You just keep this coin in this pocket and don't take it out. It can save your life at a critical moment!" Seeing that he was looking at himself like looking at a lunatic, Li You said again, "Whether you believe it or not, you take this coin first. If you survive by chance, you can give it back to me later!" After saying that, Li You left without looking back, leaving only the other party standing there dumbfounded.
