Chapter 99 Well County

“Is it sweet?”

"Yeah, the cream is so sweet!"

"Then eat more. When you arrive in Jing County, there will be sugarcane there to sell it." Fang Dajun felt sweet, and he got the moon first. Li Yulan is his, and no one can take it away.

The old varieties of sugar cane today were basically eliminated in later generations, but in the 1980s it was a good thing. The villagers bought it as New Year’s goods, and wholesale it costs two cents per kilogram. The villagers bought a large bundle, which was only one dollar.

In Jiaoshan climate, sugarcane yields are low when planted, and generally no one is growing. However, the Jingxian area produces sugarcane, and correspondingly, many sugars can be purchased, such as white sugar, yellow sugar, peanut sugar, melon strips, etc., so I can’t buy them.

Although the cake was delicious, the two of them had not finished it. They couldn't eat it for two pieces per person. Li Yulan carefully held the cardboard box, and he carried two bags and crowded into the car. This is the case for Chinese people. They knew that there would be seats when they got on the car later, but they still snatched it because the seats were also divided into good or bad.

The bus started, and Li Yulan looked out the window, looking very curious and nervous, while Fang Dajun wanted to sleep as soon as he got on the bus, which was a bad habit he developed in his previous life.

"Young man, buy something for your wife and eat on the way!" An old lady walked up to her with a basket.

This surprised him a little. Why didn't the seller get off the bus? The car drove outside the station, but the aunt's eyes were really good in front of him. She could tell at a glance that Li Yulan was his wife.

"As long, what's there?" Fang Dajun said happily. Li Yulan next to her came to her senses and wanted to persuade her, but she had no idea.

Finally, I bought two bottles of soda, two salted duck eggs, peanuts and snacks, which cost less than a dollar, but it was equivalent to the price of a train ticket, which made the aunt so happy that she couldn't even close her mouth.

The aunt got off the bus just after leaving the county town and did not give the ticket money. She probably was the family of the station staff. This was the first time he saw this business.

More than twenty minutes later, he passed by a small town. He had some impression of this place. He had seen it in the recipe book. The specialty of the new store: Seven Stars of Pepper, which tasted so hot that it made people's throats smoke. It was on par with the Xiaomi Spicy in Guizhou, overlooking the chili world.

However, there is no need to buy Chaotian pepper specifically now, because it can be planted in Jiaoshan area, and the only thing that is bad is its own land.

"Magnolia, don't you want to sleep?" After passing the town, he couldn't stand it anymore. It took nearly three hours to reach his destination.

"I don't want to, how can I sleep in broad daylight?" Li Yulan asked in return. If it were before, at this time, she would have worked in the land.

Fang Dajun once again discovered that he was the lazyest around him. He said embarrassedly: "I am sleepy, go to bed first. If you have any questions, call me."

"Yeah, you go to bed."

When he moved to a comfortable position, he just closed his eyes and suddenly his ears became hot. Li Yulan murmured, "Dajun, which bag is your money in? I'll help you stare at it. Be careful of pickpockets (thieves)." This was what her father told her before she went out, saying that there were many pickpockets outside, especially in the car, so she asked her to look at the money carefully.

Uh! Fang Dajun smiled and said, "Just in his right trouser pocket, why don't I take it out and put it there now."

"No, no, I don't dare to put so much money." Li Yulan refused. She really didn't dare. Although she didn't know how much money the army brought, it was definitely a lot.

"Haha, then don't worry, the money can't fly in his pocket." In fact, he had money in his shirt pocket and baggage. This was a precaution to really throw the money away, and it wouldn't even cost him to return to the commune.

"That won't happen." Li Yulan insisted, her pretty face full of nervousness, because now another passenger got on the bus, and there were many people standing in the middle aisle. She felt that there might be pickpockets inside.

The army in trouble below. He was really sleepy and wanted to sleep. Suddenly, a smile appeared on his face and whispered: "Or, put your hand in my pocket and you won't be afraid of losing money if you catch the money."

It was a joke, but who would have thought that Li Yulan would nod her head seriously and agree to this absurd proposal.

He slept very sweetly this time, but he felt that his right thigh was too hot. Except for getting off the bus and going to the bathroom, Li Yulan's little hands were placed in his pocket for the rest of the time.

It is not tiring for men and women to work. Jingxian County is here and it is noon. Fang Dajun suggested living in the county town today. He wanted to investigate the prices of vermicelli, coal, and cement here. The cement factory is nearly an hour away from the county town. It seems a bit late when you rush over in the afternoon, so it will be over tomorrow morning.

Li Yulan didn't understand these things at all. Even if she understood them, she wouldn't make any decisions. Whatever he said would be what he said.

"Let's go and see what's good in the local area." After sleeping for nearly three hours, I was hungry. My half-aged child let go of eating, which was even more powerful than an adult.

"No need, let's eat cake at noon, two pieces per person." Li Yulan happily held the cardboard box and became greedy again. She wanted to eat it in the car, but when she saw Dajun sleeping, she endured it.

Fang Dajun smiled, "Cake cannot be eaten as food, so let's find a good accommodation first, put the bags on, and then go out for a walk, and eat when you are hungry."

"kindness!"

This is the first time he has come to this place. He has never been to the previous life. After leaving the station, he looked at it for a while and then felt his mind was clear. The construction situation in Jing County is similar to that of benevolence and righteousness, but it seems to be more prosperous in terms of trade. After all, this place is relatively close to the city and not far from the next city, which has an innate geographical advantage.

He looked down on the small hotel and felt it was unhygienic. The price of the guesthouse was a little expensive, but it didn't matter if there were bills to be reimbursed.

When you find a guesthouse for the supply and marketing cooperative, you must not have a double room, because with Li Yulan's personality of feeling sorry for money, she will definitely not ask for two separate rooms. It is just a single room and a bed, and it is not possible to be at night, hehe.

"Young man, there is just one double room left on the fourth floor. It's 280 cents a night, packing hot water. Should you register first or view the house first?" The aunt guarding the shop greeted enthusiastically.

It was a tragedy, everything went smoothly when I went out, but I went to bed, "Then let's take a look at the room first!" I thought silently again, the room was very bad, so I could find an excuse to go to the next house to try my luck and hit a single room.

As a result, the room was much better than the previous guesthouse, and the windows were larger, and it was on the fourth floor. Li Yulan was very happy with the room, but she felt sorry for the price.

Fang Dajun sighed heavily in his heart and said in a pretentious manner: "Success, then let's do this!"

"Okay, young man, please go downstairs and register. The accommodation fee is 2.8 yuan, the deposit is 3 yuan, and the check-out and turn-key refund is 2.9 yuan." The aunt seemed very enthusiastic.

The registration procedures were simple, and he was OK with the documents and keys. When he went upstairs, Li Yulan had already packed up because it was a passenger bus and she didn't have to take a shower. She followed the two of them and divided the cake. If possible, he wanted to suggest going to bed now, uh!

"Dajun, what are the cakes and creams made? They are so delicious. Can you make them yourself at home?" Li Yulan licked her lips and sniffed them. She fell in love with the taste.

He was not very clear about this question. After recalling it for a moment, he said: "The cake below seems to be baked from flour and eggs. The cream seems to be milk, eggs and sugar, but without equipment, you can't make it at home."

"Oh!" Li Yulan showed disappointment on her face. She didn't know how many years it would be after eating the cake next time.

Seeing this, Fang Dajun comforted him: "As long as the factory has good benefits, I will buy a set of cake equipment and put it in the canteen. You can eat it every day." Cake equipment should not cost much, and the ingredients are available locally. The cream only lacks milk. At worst, some dairy cows will be raised at that time. Anyway, the director of the county animal husbandry bureau is Wang Hongwen's classmate, so it should not be a big problem to help find some dairy cows to come back.

"Yeah!" Li Yulan nodded happily.

"Haha, let's go downstairs and go around. By the way, I have to tell you something. We all have to prepare a set of work clothes." Fang Dajun said seriously.

"Workwear?" Li Yulan was puzzled.

Fang Dajun explained: "We are now visiting the cement factory. The first impression we give is very important, so we should not be bad at all. We have to buy a better set of clothes, which will be reimbursed in the factory. In addition, I also need to prepare some gifts, mainly for tobacco and alcohol. You will understand when the time comes."
