Chapter 139 The Cricket Behind Her

Helpless, Huang Juan had no choice but to call Shao Le, who had just entered the room, "Go find Lu Qiaoge and tell her that Liu, the accountant from the finance department, wants her to come back and set up the accounts."

Shao Le was quite happy. Although he was drafted as soon as he entered the main office, he readily agreed: "Okay, I'll go now."

Xiao Liu glanced at the time: "By the time Lu Qiaoge gets back, it will be lunchtime."

Old Hu couldn't listen anymore. Ever since the food factory was set up and Xiao Liu was put in charge of finances, she had been complaining that her workload had increased. She said she couldn't handle so many ledgers by herself. The financial work of the street office was indeed tedious, but if it were simple, would they still need you?

This is when someone with strong self-sustaining business capabilities starts to get cocky.

Old Hu said, "I'm going to the factory right now. You take the official seal and relevant documents, and I'll go with you to the bank to open an account for the food factory. We can do the rest when you have time."

He then said to Shao Le, "Go and see if the food factory needs any help... If it's running well, we'll give you all a year-end bonus."

Shao Le was worried that Director Hu wouldn't let him go, but he didn't expect to be asked to go there to help.

Shao Le happily rode his bicycle away.

Then Director Hu waited for Xiao Liu to go to the finance office to get the things.

Xiao Liu entered the finance office looking very unhappy. Accountant Shen frowned when she saw her and asked, "What's wrong with you? Didn't you see Lu Qiaoge, or is she not going with you?"

“Lu Qiaoge went to the food factory. She’s a very busy person. She doesn’t have time to help me set up accounts. I have to take the initiative to go see her every day.”

Accountant Shen glanced at her: "Didn't Lu Qiaoge come looking for you? But aren't you always busy?"

"I am indeed busy. There are so many trivial things to do at the street office, and they don't even add more people for us. Now, with the addition of a food factory, how can we handle it?"

Besides, the plan has only been in place for a short time, and those volunteers are mostly educated youth sent to the countryside; what kind of pastries would they know?

The cashier chimed in, "I heard that it was Sister-in-law Lu Qiaoge's pastries that caught the eye of Manager Song from the department store."

Xiao Liu pouted: "Actually, that's how it is. Just listen to what people say. Who knows what's really going on? Just look at Lu Qiaoge's sister-in-law and younger sister, they're both at the factory. You should understand what's going on."

They started as volunteers, and were overjoyed to receive a small bonus. Now look at them, it's only been a month, and they've become workers in a large collective enterprise.

They all think food factories are easy jobs. They don't even have a pastry chef; they might not make a single penny and end up losing everything.

Accountant Shen frowned as she watched Xiao Liu complaining while picking up her handbag and asked, "Where are you going?"

"Director Hu said he had time and was going to go to the bank with me to open a bank account."

"Then hurry up and go, don't delay the director's work."

Lu Qiaoge rode her bicycle away from the neighborhood office with Xiao Cangcang in tow, unaware that everyone was gossiping about her behind her back.

Of course, even if I knew, I wouldn't care.

She has so many things to do; it would be abnormal if no one was around to cricket.

Speaking of which, she often chats with Sister Qiao and the others about crickets.

She mainly wanted to ask Xiao Cangcang a question.

Strictly speaking, the intelligent little fly and the fly that can only live for a few months are no longer the same species.

In Lu Qiaoge's view, it had mutated.

As she pushed her bicycle, she asked it, "What are your plans?"

Then she thought for a moment and said, "I have a nest of swallows at home. The parents of the swallows are very intelligent, but the baby swallows can't communicate with us yet. They are at the naughty age right now. Although they are small, they are quite fierce. I'm worried that it might be dangerous for you to go there."

Perhaps because of her, the three baby swallows flew fast and grew fast. Although they didn't have any thoughts, they were already able to catch insects, and very quickly at that.

There isn't a single flying insect in her house, and that's no exaggeration.

Baby Swallow is now cleaning up the surroundings; it would be dangerous for Little Cangcang to go there. Little Cangcang landed on Lu Qiaoge's bicycle handlebars and said, "There are hot springs on Yuanbao Mountain to the north, inside the Fairy Cave. It's warm there even in winter."

Lu Qiaoge really didn't know this.

Are there really hot springs in the mountains?

"So what do you mainly eat?"

Lu Qiaoge came and went in a hurry, so I really don't know what it eats.

I don't know what happened. I woke up in a scrap yard. I was conscious as soon as I woke up. I like the mountains and the fragrance of flowers. I sometimes eat nectar. I also really like to eat sand and iron filings. I saw the hot spring. It has all the things I like to eat. There are also hazelnut trees nearby, so I won't go hungry in the winter.

Lu Qiaoge was taken aback. Eating such a variety of things?
The other things were fine, but there was also sand and iron filings, which seemed quite unbelievable.

But it's not surprising that it can even name itself.

She had mixed feelings, but then smiled and said, "It is a nice place, but winter is still several months away, so let's not rush it."

Little Cangcang flew away happily.

When Lu Qiaoge arrived at the food factory, it was operating in an orderly manner.

Looking at the successful sample, Lu Qiaoge led Meng Qingshan and Su Hui to the food section of the department store.

It was only at this point that Lu Qiaoge learned that Song, the head of the food group, and the director of Jiangcheng No. 1 Food Factory were old classmates, but now the two had a conflict because of another old classmate.

So when they tasted Su Hui's pastries, they thought they were better than those from the First Food Factory, and that's how this food factory came about.

Lu Qiaoge didn't care about those things.

To be honest, she just wanted to get her sister-in-law and younger sister urban residency permits.

It's just a small factory; the last thing it needs right now is people.

However, it must be said that the conflict between Jiangcheng No. 1 Food Factory and Song, the team leader of the department store, brought together the sixteen people at the service station.

There used to be thirteen, but soon there will be three more.

So there are now sixteen people on the list.

These three people weren't particularly important; they were all educated youth who had returned to the city. However, one of them was Huang Juan's niece, and the other two were introduced by Meng Qingshan and Hu Ze.

Lu Qiaoge learned that they were all young people, which meant there was uncertainty.

Because of that life-changing exam two years later.

Half of the young people here may leave.

Therefore, it is enough for Lu Qiaoge to achieve her initial goal.

Su Hui's cooking skills are actually quite good. She can cook some ingredients she has never seen before with just a glance.

The pastries she makes taste much better than those from food factories.

The sugar in the middle seems to be a layer of syrup, not a hard block of sugar. It's a typical crispy outside and soft inside. One bite is oily, sweet and fragrant, and it will instantly make you feel wonderful.

Su Hui's cooking skills are quite good.

When Sun Qin was involved in that incident, she did consider her sister-in-law, but she only considered it briefly before giving up. Going to a military research institute is different from going to a food factory in the street. After all, ingredients are still very important now, so there is really no need to cause trouble.

The baskets that the group used to carry food today were woven from reeds and willow branches.

It was rectangular, with a lid, and the basket contained one hundred shortbread cookies and one hundred cornbread cookies.
