Chapter 24, Er Ba Da Gang

Wu Huamin's order left Zhao Mancang stunned.

"Director, today is payday. If I go out, won't I get paid?"

Zhao Mancang had been thinking about his salary for nearly ten days, and he had already become greedy.

I was notified that I was on a business trip now. Doesn’t that mean I won’t be able to get my salary?
"If you hurry, you can still make it back for lunch. What are you dawdling for?" Wu Huamin glared at him.
"Besides, your salary is in the finance department, and no one wants it. Are you afraid they won't pay it to you?"

This is the truth, but
Well, Zhao Mancang could only nod and agree since he couldn’t prevail.

Jiang Dayong briefly explained the situation. It was actually about the last time Zhao Mancang cured the plowing ox. Jiang Dayong was just passing on the message.

As a buyer for the steel plant canteen, Jiang Dayong often goes to the suburbs to purchase agricultural and sideline products, meat, etc.

This respect is half similar to the double agents of the supply and marketing cooperatives.

The supply and marketing cooperatives have a dual agent job, which is to be responsible for the work of industrial products going to the countryside, waste recycling, fresh egg purchase, and developing multiple operations for the rural grassroots supply and marketing cooperatives.

Because of this, Jiang Dayong happened to encounter an incident at the Huaishuling Production Team. There was a sick yellow cattle with rotten and festering pus on the soles of its front legs, and it could not be cured at all.

The Huaishuling Production Team was originally planning to sell its oxen in exchange for other supplies.

He happened to meet Jiang Dayong and asked him to help invite Zhao Mancang to come and treat the yellow cow.

Jiang Dayong had no choice but to do this kind of thing where he could take advantage of others, and Wu Huamin's eyes lit up.

Although the yellow cattle were not purchased back at the price for slaughtering as a working ox, the Huaishuling Production Team had also spoken.

As long as this yellow cattle is cured, the cost of treatment will definitely not be low.

Huaishuling Production Team is a vegetable planting base in Beijing. It is a rural cooperative production society that specializes in providing vegetables to Beijing. The supply of fresh vegetables is absolutely guaranteed.

What's more, Huaishuling is at the foot of Yanshan Mountain, and many villagers there are good hunters.

Jiang Dayong often goes there to buy wild game and cured meat, so he is very familiar with them.

Therefore, there is no need to worry about the Huaishuling Production Team not being able to afford the price.

Zhao Mancang was also a little moved when he heard this.

But while he was still hesitating, Peng Sixi, who was not far away, suddenly jumped out and recommended himself to Wu Huamin, saying that he could also cure the yellow cow with pus on its feet.

When Wu Huamin heard this, his face suddenly turned gloomy.

As the director of the breeding room, how could Wu Huamin not be familiar with the abilities of the people under him?
Let’s not talk about Xu Fugui, the fifth-level breeder. Although he has the ability, he likes to be lazy and is not the kind of person who gets things done.

As for the three first-level breeders, Zhang Debao, Wang Shunfa and Peng Sixi, they work diligently and have excellent attitudes, but they lack the skills.

There is no need to mention the remaining apprentices Zeng Tong, Zheng Damao and Li Ziwen, who are just doing odd jobs.

Only Zhao Mancang, a fifth-level breeder, is very capable, hardworking, and most importantly, "sensible".

"Peng Sixi, what are you doing here? Are you a veterinarian? Get out of here right now!"

Being scolded by his leader, Peng Sixi was embarrassed, but he also took the risk. He raised his neck and pointed his finger:
"Director, isn't Zhao Mancang also a veterinarian? Why can he go but I can't?"

If you take a step forward, there may be an infinite future, but if you take a step back, you will always be lost in the crowd.

Peng Sixi had already prepared himself mentally and certainly wouldn't back down easily. Wu Huamin was immediately irritated and laughed, "Zhao Mancang is a Level 5 breeder, are you? Zhao Mancang can heal donkeys and oxen, can you?"

Wu Huamin asked two rhetorical questions in succession, and before Peng Sixi could speak, he continued:

"How dare you, a kid who hasn't even grown all his hair, yell at me? I'll punish you by making you do two more pigpen chores today. Get out!"

After saying that, Wu Huamin no longer cared about the brat Peng Sixi, but urged Zhao Mancang and Jiang Dayong to set off quickly.

As long as this thing succeeds, Wu Huamin will be able to make a lot of money again.

To be honest, although the job of the director of the breeding room is not very busy, it is definitely not as good as that of Jiang Dayong, the canteen buyer.

why?
Because Jiang Dayong handles a lot of agricultural and sideline products every day, even a little bit of it would be enough for the whole family to enjoy.

I've heard for a long time that Jiang Dayong's son is taller and stronger than other children, and it's all because of his job as a purchasing agent.

Zhao Mancang didn't look at Peng Sixi, but in his heart he had already labeled the latter as "don't have too much contact with him, and don't offend him."

This kind of small person has already offended him, so there is certainly no need for Zhao Mancang to treat him the same way as before.

But don't offend the other party too much because of this. After all, small people can be quite disgusting sometimes.

Anyway, just stay away from such people.

"Wow, Brother Yong, you have a bicycle now?"

Not long after they walked out, Jiang Dayong came forward and pushed a 28-inch bicycle over, and asked Zhao Mancang to sit in the back seat.

Bicycles are large items, and were one of the three or four major items that many people had to have when they got married in the 1960s and 1970s.

There is a 28-inch truck, which is definitely the coolest thing on this street.

Although Zhao Mancang didn't want to sit on the back of someone else's bicycle, he decided not to use his legs to measure the distance between the steel plant and Huaishuling Production Team.

Therefore, Zhao Mancang was particularly spineless and sat on the back seat of the 28-inch bicycle, even though it had no cushion.

Along the way, Jiang Dayong was very talkative and it seemed like he had almost no endless topics to talk about.

Starting with the topic of bicycles, by the time we arrived at the Huaishuling Production Team, we had already talked about the story of the old rural woman selling eggs.

Since Zhao Mancang really wanted to buy a bicycle, he specially asked Jiang Dayong for a lot of information.

It is not easy to get a bicycle ticket, and it is almost impossible to do so through formal channels.

After all, Jiang Dayong and Zhao Mancang didn't have much in common, so the former didn't mention the bicycle tickets for sale in Pigeon City, because that would give the impression of being too intimate with someone they just met.

Even so, Jiang Dayong still talked a lot about buying a bicycle in this era.

For example, Jiang Dayong's own bicycle ticket was a "reward" given to him by Director Dong Shaoxian.

Only those involved know the specific details.

Anyway, no one would go to Dong Shaoxian to verify this matter. Besides, with Jiang Dayong's cautiousness, how could he lie casually?
So if Zhao Mancang needs to buy a bicycle, he can either refer to Jiang Dayong or go to Pigeon City to exchange tickets himself.

However, given the Pixiu attributes of Wu Huamin, the director of the breeding room, how could he possibly reward Zhao Mancang with a bicycle ticket?
