“I’m different from you guys. You’re not working today, but I have to work this afternoon!” Qiao Chunyan retorted without any politeness.

Xiao Guoqing looked at Qiao Chunyan speechlessly: "Then you can't ask for leave!"

“I’m a model employee at our bathhouse, how can I just take leave? Brother Bingkun, how about this, if they haven’t started selling by noon, I’ll head back first.” Qiao Chunyan looked at Zhou Bingkun and said, “Could you take my share back for me? You’re riding a tricycle anyway, it’s on your way, so just consider it a favor, okay?”

Zhou Bingkun looked at her speechlessly: "Why didn't you say so before you came?"

Helping someone carry things is really not a big deal.

He could easily handle several dozen kilograms of meat.

The problem is, you've already come all this way, and you're not willing to wait.

Why didn't you say so before you came?

Now that we have to wait, you say such things.

Qiao Chunyan said somewhat helplessly, "I didn't know I had to wait! I thought I could just buy it as soon as I arrived."

“We can all wait, but you’re so troublesome, you can’t wait,” Xiao Guoqing retorted, seizing the opportunity.

Qiao Chunyan glared at Xiao Guoqing: "Guoqing, I didn't ask you to bring him, why are you saying so much? Bingkun is my sworn brother, what's wrong with helping out a little? Is it any of your business?"

Xiao Guoqing wanted to retort again, but Zhou Bingkun stopped him.

In any case, Qiao Chunyan is not the dark girl in the future video; she is still a good girl now.

Zhou Bingkun didn't want to see his good friend and his god-sister really have a serious argument.

Zheng Juan also quietly tugged at Zhou Bingkun and whispered, "Bingkun, say yes to her! When I went to the bathhouse with my aunt before, she was so welcoming to us."

In her heart, Qiao Chunyan was a good person.

Previously, when she and Li Suhua went to take a bath, Qiao Chunyan was particularly enthusiastic and even helped them with their pedicures in the end.

She is a kind girl. She never takes small favors from others for granted, but remembers them in her heart.

Zhou Bingkun had the same idea, so he nodded and said to Qiao Chunyan, "It'll probably be a while, Chunyan. If you're at work this afternoon, you should go home first. I'll deliver the meat to your house later and give it to your uncle and aunt."

Qiao Chunyan happily said to Zhou Bingkun, "Brother, thank you so much!"

However, she did not leave immediately, but waited a while longer.

Seeing that the meat still hadn't arrived, he rode away on his bike.

"That Qiao Chunyan, with her personality, I don't know what Chao likes about her." Watching Qiao Chunyan leave, Xiao Guoqing shook his head.

Zhou Bingkun patted Xiao Guoqing on the shoulder: "Alright, we all grew up together, why bother arguing with her?"

After a while, Zhou Bingkun felt that he couldn't wait any longer.

So he went into the supply and marketing cooperative and asked around, only to find out that the leaders were not there, and there were only a few employees.

He didn't waste any words and directly told them to make the call.

The staff didn't want to cause trouble for the warehouse.

Because they deal with people there frequently, they know how difficult they can be.

So Zhou Bingkun directly asked the staff for their phone number.

Then I called the warehouse and asked them to send the meat over as soon as possible.

The other party said they would only deliver if there was a responsible person to guarantee it.

Zhou Bingkun said he would take responsibility and told them to send the meat over quickly.

More than an hour after I made the call, the meat was finally delivered.

Two truckloads of pork arrived, and they started selling them immediately.

After much trouble, Zhou Bingkun and his group finally managed to buy the meat.

Cai Xiaoguang said there was no limit to the quantity, but that was not actually the case.

The butcher said that each person can only buy one pancake.

Fortunately, Zhou Bingkun and his group came in large numbers and managed to buy three doors.

Zhou Bingkun and Zheng Juan's pieces didn't need to be divided, while Xiao Guoqing and Sun Ganchao's pieces were divided into three parts.

Each piece of meat weighed nearly 100 jin (50 kg), and Xiao Guoqing and Sun Ganchao even wanted to help carry it.

But to everyone's surprise, Zhou Bingkun easily picked it up and put it on the tricycle.

Fortunately, the borrowed tricycle was big enough to fit everything.

"Bingkun, you ride in front, and I'll push you from behind." Zheng Juan stood behind the tricycle, ready to push it by hand.

Zhou Bingkun looked at Zheng Juan and said with a smile, "No need, you come up too. A few hundred pounds of stuff is nothing to me."

Zheng Juan looked at Zhou Bingkun with some concern: "But it will be very tiring."

"It's alright, this little bit of tiredness is nothing. Come on up! It's quite a long way, walking back would be a waste of time."

Zheng Juan was still somewhat hesitant.

She felt that Zhou Bingkun was a cultured person and shouldn't be doing this kind of physical labor.

In other words, she can't ride a bike, otherwise she definitely wouldn't let Zhou Bingkun ride one.

In the end, Zheng Juan couldn't persuade Zhou Bingkun otherwise, so she got on the tricycle, and the four of them headed towards the Guangzi area.

Back in Guangzipian, Sun Ganchao took the initiative to ask Qiao Chunyan's family for the meat, intending to deliver it to them in order to gain their favor.

Seeing this, Zhou Bingkun naturally didn't stop them.

After distributing the meat to Sun Ganchao and Xiao Guoqing, Zhou Bingkun and Zheng Juan went home.

Li Suhua was naturally overjoyed to see so much pork.

With so much meat, the old man and Bingyi will have plenty to eat when they get back.

While Zheng Juan helped Li Suhua process the meat, Zhou Bingkun sat and rested while checking the online store in the chat group.

Then Zhou Bingkun discovered that among the items refreshed in the store this time, there was indeed a good one.

Interdimensional Portal (Trial Card): Can be used three times, each time allowing one being from another world to enter this world. Beings from another world can stay in this world for a maximum of three days.

It's the interdimensional portal (trial card) that Zhang Chulan used before to get Zhang Sanfeng, Yue Buqun, and Yan Chixia to help.

Zhou Bingkun bought it without hesitation.

It wasn't so that he could call on people to help him in the future, but rather that Zhou Bingkun wanted to invite Zhang Chulan and Xiao Shan to his wedding.

After all, Zhang Chulan and Xiao Shan, two experts in love, had helped him a lot in winning over Zheng Juan.

Moreover, these two were the people Zhou Bingkun was closest to in the chat group.

Of course, it would be best if all members of the chat group could be invited.

Unfortunately, this interdimensional portal (trial card) can only be used three times, meaning you can only invite a maximum of three people at the same time!

Zhou Bingkun told his friends in the group that he had obtained the interdimensional teleportation portal (experience card), and invited Zhang Chulan and Xiao Shan to attend his wedding.

The world of courtyard houses, the city of Beijing.

Xiao Shan readily accepted Zhou Bingkun's invitation.

After all, he had long wanted to see the world of other group members.

Since the interdimensional portal (experience card) can invite three people at the same time, after discussion, the last spot was given to Ying Zheng.

Since Yue Buqun, Zhang Sanfeng, and Yan Chixia had all been to other worlds, the opportunity was given to Ying Zheng and Han Li to experience it.

Because of Han Li's consistent caution, the final opportunity to experience it fell to Ying Zheng.

After finishing his chat with the group members, Xiao Shan went to work.

It has been a month since Xiaoshan returned to work in the welding workshop.

Today is the day of the factory's performance review.

Luo Zhengqiu had previously applied for a Level 4 welder assessment for Xiaoshan, so Xiaoshan would also participate in the assessment.

The huge factory building contains a lot of equipment.

The first test was a fitter's assessment.

Yi Zhonghai, a level eight worker, was one of the invigilators.

Xiao Shan saw Jia Dongxu, who must have come to take the Level 4 fitter assessment.

Jia Dongxu also saw Xiao Shan and asked incredulously, "Xiao Shan, you're here to participate in the assessment too?"

Xiaoshan only passed the Level 3 welder assessment a short time ago, so why is he taking the assessment again?

"Well, my supervisor has registered me for the Level 4 welder exam. Come and give it a try!" Xiao Shan said to Jia Dongxu with a smile.

Yi Zhonghai also saw Xiao Shan: "Xiao Shan, when learning a skill, you have to be down-to-earth and not aim too high."

"Old Yi, you should mind your own business first!" Mao Dexing, Xiao Shan's master, was displeased upon hearing Yi Zhonghai's words. "Xiao Shan is a smart kid. He'll definitely pass the test this time!"

Yi Zhonghai was stunned for a moment, not expecting that Mao Dexing cared so much about Xiaoshan.

He then smiled and said, "Master Mao, who can say for sure about these things? Let's see how it goes in a bit!"

The fitter assessment began soon, and Jia Dongxu was in the first wave.

Looking at Jia Dongxu, Xiao Shan felt that compared to his previous rosy complexion, Jia Dongxu now looked weak, as if he hadn't eaten enough.

Xiao Shan was somewhat surprised. Could it be that Jia Dongxu had saved the grain for Jia Zhangshi and Qin Huairu to eat?

Fitting is heavy physical labor. If you don't have enough to eat, working slowly is secondary; a moment of distraction could cost you your life.

Chapter 124: Jia Zhangshi ate her son's food rations, and Jia Dongxu failed the assessment!

As Xiao Shan had predicted, Jia Dongxu made a mistake when he was almost halfway through the work, ruining the piece and failing to advance.

Upon seeing the discarded workpiece, Jia Dongxu's face turned pale.

He put in a lot of effort to become a level four fitter.

But when he was halfway through, he suddenly felt palpitations and shortness of breath, felt hungry and his hands became unsteady, which caused him to make a mistake.

"Jia Dongxu failed the assessment."

Upon hearing the referee's voice, Jia Dongxu silently walked off the assessment platform.

Yi Zhonghai's expression was also grim. He walked over and asked, "Dongxu, what happened? You haven't made any mistakes in our Level 4 workpiece experiment these past few days. How did you fail at the crucial moment?"

Jia Dongxu was almost in tears: "Master, I'm so hungry I'm panicking, my hands are shaking, and I can't hold the workpiece steady at all."

Yi Zhonghai didn't know what to say: "The food distributed by the hospital is enough for you! Even if you're not full, you won't be this hungry."

“Master, you know my mother’s appetite. Twenty-five jin is not enough for her. I was thinking of eating less so that my mother could eat more. I can’t let my son watch his mother go hungry!” Jia Dongxu sighed, somewhat helplessly.

Yi Zhonghai nodded. This was indeed his good apprentice, Jia Dongxu, who knew how to respect his elders.

So he comforted her, saying, "I'll get you twenty pounds of cornmeal later. If it doesn't work this time, there's always next time. With your skill level, becoming a fourth-grade worker is just a matter of this year."

Hearing Yi Zhonghai's words, Jia Dongxu was deeply moved.

Soon it was time for the Level 4 welder assessment.

Under everyone's watchful eyes, Xiao Shan completed the task with great ease.

The examiners looked at the workpiece from Xiaoshan, nodded, and approved it.

Mao Dexing stood to the side, grinning from ear to ear: "Xiaoshan, not bad, not bad!"

"This is all thanks to my master's guidance. Tonight I'll treat my master and the workshop workers to dinner," Xiao Shan said to Mao Dexing with a smile.

Upon hearing Xiao Shan's words, Mao Dexing said with a serious expression, "What invitation? Food is so scarce right now! The higher-ups have issued notices multiple times to conserve food. You better watch out!"

"Don't worry, if you don't invite them, everyone will understand, and no one will say anything!"

"Besides, you're not the only one in our workshop participating in the assessment. If you invite others, shouldn't others do the same?"

Hearing Mao Dexing's words, Xiao Shan felt that they made sense.

If I treat everyone to a meal, wouldn't that put the other colleagues in the workshop who passed the assessment on a pedestal?
