When Song Gang heard that his girl wanted to go to the closet, his expression became subtle.

Song Qianqian has such a temper, just leave it to him and take care of her.

If she is really allowed to sign a contract directly with Si Chen and become a contractor, it will not be easy at all.

Another point is that in the thinking of a rough man like Song Gang, he is actually a little unfavorable to women doing business.

I always feel that my girl is confused and not suitable for business.

"Dapeng, Qianqian is not that good. Don't talk to Chenzi as soon as possible."

Song Gang blocked Si Peng back with one word, picked up the wine glass, toasted Si Chen, and said:

"My younger brothers and sisters are not sensible, so don't argue with them."

Although Song Gang claimed to be brothers and sisters to Si Chen, in fact, in terms of distance in heart, he did not really dare to be on an equal footing with Si Chen.

In fact, he was not as close as Si Peng and Si Chen.

He treats Si Chen as a business partner, and if everyone respects each other, then the business can last long.

Brother Gangzi, a social man, is not a kid who plays house. He really has a strong sense of ritual and does whatever he should do.

Si Chen was very clear-minded, and of course he understood the twists and turns involved.

He clinked glasses with Song Gang, took a sip, put down the wine cup, and said:

"Brother Gangzi, if Dapeng's wife wants to go to the counter, then she can do it. It doesn't matter so much. Others can do it. I have no reason to say that I can't."

Si Chen's words are actually based on mutual respect.

Song Qianqian has grown up, and there is no need to guard against scourges.

After all, Song Gang is just such a girl. If Si Chen doesn't give Song Gang face at this time, it will inevitably leave a knot in her heart.

Song Gang said not to talk to Song Qianqian, but in his heart he was expecting Si Chen to relent.

After a few seconds of thinking in Si Chen's mind, he weighed the importance clearly.

When Song Gang heard Si Chen say this, he was actually happy.

He even spoke in a sassy voice, holding a wine bottle to refill his wine cup, and said with disdain for Si Chen's wine cup:

"Tsk! What are you doing if you don't finish the cup and keep more than half of the cup? Raising Yellow River turtles?"

"Drink, drink, I poured the wine for you personally. You must give me face, Ang~"

"Brother Gangzi, I'm not a good drinker. I have a stomachache after drinking too much." Si Chen really wasn't talking nonsense.

In his previous life, he was ashamed of his wife, children, father and grandmother. He often couldn't sleep in the dead of night and drank to drown his sorrows.

In the end, he became addicted to alcohol, his stomach was broken, and he died of stomach cancer no matter how much money he spent to save it.

In this life, Si Chen must protect his stomach no matter what!

"Go, go! Master, what's wrong with drinking two cups?" Song Gang didn't believe it at all!

"I really can't drink, Brother Gangzi." Si Chen then spoke half truthfully and half falsely about the harm to the stomach caused by drinking, and how it eventually turned into stomach cancer.

That guy's words were hard to tell whether they were true or false, and he frightened Song Gang and Si Peng into a daze.

Si Peng drove for Song Ci, the director of the National Coal Factory, and the most important task was to keep out the alcohol.

Song Gang himself likes to organize games. He holds banquets every night and drinks more wine than water.

When Si Chen said this, both of them fell silent.

They are all thinking about whether their bodies will collapse or not.

However, Si Chen was still beside him adding jealousy:

"Tell me, what are you doing to make money? Isn't it just for enjoyment?"

"My body is broken, my stomach is broken, I can't eat delicious food, and I don't have a chance to survive. Is it a loss?"

"How do you say that? Money is in the bank and people are in heaven!"

Si Peng:...scared me to death!

Song Gang:...I have no words to refute!

…

Around the 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month, school-going children take holidays one after another.

The flavor of the New Year is getting stronger and stronger, and every household begins to buy New Year items.

Si Chen, Sili Ge's tobacco, alcohol and non-staple food counter is extremely busy.

Under normal circumstances, there were not many snacks in 1988. All kinds of snacks exploded in the 1990s.

The appearance of Si Chen caused the Yuanmeng County Food Factory's snack varieties to explode in advance!

As a result, this year, every household has rich and colorful snacks.

Even if your family doesn’t have much money, weigh less of everything and try to have a little of everything.

Si Chen followed the way snacks were grouped in later generations. Many snacks were not distinguished by type, but by price.

In this way, snacks that cost fifty cents, one yuan, two yuan, five yuan, or even ten yuan a pound all have their own audience groups.

This novel way of selling goods attracts a large number of consumers.

During the New Year holiday, the first person to come back was Tang Linlang from Longcheng University.

Si Chen directly requisitioned people and assigned them to his tobacco, alcohol and non-staple food stalls.

Then, it was Si Kui from northern Qing Dynasty who came back from vacation.

Si Chen opened a stall at the entrance of the department store. The snacks on it were relatively cheap. Si Kui, Si Letian and Si Xiaoxiao were guarding the stall together.

Compared to selling goods, Si Xiaoxiao prefers to pick them up and eat them.

"Xiaoxiao, don't eat. Brother Chen's salary for one day is not enough for you to eat."

Si Kui reminded his sister.

"I'm happy! At worst, I don't need any wages!" Si Xiaoxiao stood in front of the stall and ate spicy strips with relish.

"Brother Kui, don't be ridiculous, let her eat if she wants. There is so much, and she still needs a bite."

Si Letian gave others money and smoothed things over for the little sisters.

Si Kui was weighing the scales next to him. He looked back at Si Letian and smiled gently.

He went to school in Kyoto and wrote letters to Si Xiaoxiao, mentioning Si Letian every time.

In the past half year, the two of them have been in constant contact and know each other's current situation.

…

On the night of the 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month, according to the custom of Yuanmeng County, a bonfire is lit in the yard.

The important thing is that the Kitchen God will go to heaven to pray for good weather in the coming year and for the whole family to have enough food!

This ceremony is called "making a strong fire".

After it gets dark, take out a burning firewood from the stove and put it into the bonfire——

"Don't click! Wait for me! Wait for me!"

Outside the courtyard of Sichen's house, a man's voice came urgently.

Mrs. Si was startled and happily greeted her out, running and saying hello:

"Xiao Chong is back, come in quickly, come in, come in and light the fire, I'm waiting for you!"

Every year during the Chinese New Year, Si Xuemei’s family always comes back.

When Si Qingbai was not in a high position, he spent the Chinese New Year at home.

In recent years, as he moved higher and higher, he always spent New Year's Eve at Longcheng, offering condolences everywhere.

Sometimes, the biggest leader from above will come down, and he must accompany him.

Therefore, during the Chinese New Year in recent years, Si Qingbai could only bring his family back before the 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month to celebrate a small New Year.

On the second day, when others stayed to celebrate the New Year, he left in a hurry.

"Fortunately, I run fast!" Si Chong jumped up to Si Chen, took the burning firewood stick, and inserted it into the pile of firewood.

There was a pile of soft firewood at the bottom, which quickly burned.

Yan Lixia held little Ping'an in her arms, and Wan Hong held little Yuanman in her arms. The seven-and-a-half-month-old Zai Zai was extremely excited about such a big scene!

Xiaopingan screamed and released his dolphin sound.

Xiao Yuanman was so excited in Wan Hong's arms that she threw herself in the direction of the bonfire. She was covered in milk and was so tired that it was very difficult for Wan Hong to hold her.

Si Chen took his daughter, held her in his arms, kissed her forehead, and said:
Chapter completed!
