"Down? What is that? Your cotton-padded jacket feels very light, not as heavy as cotton."

After Zhao Guangming finished speaking, Zheng Yaqing also came over and looked at Liu Chen's down jacket curiously.

"Not to mention, it is really thin and light, and the style is good-looking. It is much prettier than our floral cotton-padded jackets."

Liu Chen looked at them, that's right, cotton padded jackets are also very warm, but in this era, cotton is a good thing, it is a strategic material, not everyone has the conditions to make it into clothes, like Zheng Yaqing and Zhao Guangming

It's okay for those with formal jobs. Some members' families only have one cotton-padded jacket for going out. When they don't go out, they stay at home.

Liutang's production team is still able to do so now, mainly because they are sewing pillows and woolen nests, usually in greenhouses. It's okay not to wear cotton-padded jackets there, because it's much warmer there.

Now more and more people are going to the greenhouses, and many of the children are living there. The main reason is that it is warm inside, but it is too cold outside.

"A Chen, did you get this cotton-padded jacket from the capital too?"

"Hey, I have many friends, so I asked someone to get me one. It's mainly to keep me warm."

Zheng Yaqing and Zhao Guangming looked at Liu Chen's down jacket, and each of them touched either the sleeves or the pockets, but they liked it very much.

On such a cold day, it would be really cool to put on such a cotton-padded jacket and casually wear autumn clothes and autumn trousers underneath. When it is really cold, put on a piece of thermal underwear.

"A Chen, your clothes must not be cheap, right?"

"It's not bad. It doesn't cost much, just over a hundred yuan a piece."

As soon as Liu Chen finished speaking, everyone present stared at Liu Chen. Oh my God, this cotton-padded jacket costs more than a hundred yuan. Isn't it too expensive? Isn't this expensive?

In this era, everyone generally wears clothes made of self-made fabrics, which only cost about ten yuan a piece. The more expensive and thicker ones cost around twenty or thirty yuan. That is already amazing, my God.

, more than one hundred yuan is really a lot to buy a cotton-padded jacket.

In this era, everyone's salary is only twenty or thirty yuan, and the higher one is only about thirty-six yuan. Secretary Zhang only earns sixty yuan, and this cotton-padded jacket costs more than one hundred yuan. This is Liu's salary.

I don’t think it’s very expensive anymore. Other people really don’t dare to buy it, mainly because they can’t afford it.

Zhao Guangming and Zheng Yaqing just looked at Liu Chen eagerly. Forget it, the clothes were too expensive, so they might as well wear their own cotton-padded jackets.

"Do you want it?"

Everyone looked at Liu Chen in shock. Isn't this nonsense? Who wouldn't want such a good cotton-padded jacket? Only fools wouldn't want it.

Liu Chen looked at them with a smile and said: "Actually, this cotton-padded jacket is not that difficult. The main reason is that my friends in the capital know people in Hong Kong and Taiwan. They are the ones who produce these cotton-padded jackets, so they have a way to get them.

Take a look, how about I look for my friends and get one for each of you?"

Everyone listened to Liu Chen's words, good guys, each person can get one of these down jackets. It's really good and not expensive. This dress costs a hundred yuan a piece. Although it doesn't require a cloth ticket, it's not expensive either.

Cheap.

Liu Chen looked at them, smiled and whispered in their ears: "Look at you, you don't know how good these clothes are. That friend of mine has a quirk, that is, he likes old things from the past. You guys

As long as I can get it, I will let him give it to you at a cheaper price."

Mao Zi and the others know that Liu Chen's friends like old objects. Liu Chen's home in the area has collected a lot of objects, such as mahogany furniture, jars, ceramics, etc. from the Ming and Qing Dynasties, as well as old coins from the past. There are a lot of things.

, at first Maozi and the others thought it was just Liu Chen who liked it, but it turned out that Liu Chen’s friends liked it.

"Oh, I thought there was something, but it turned out to be this. That's easy to deal with. These old things are no problem. I've got them on my body."

"A Chen, are you sure your friend likes those things? Can those things really be exchanged for something as precious as a down jacket?"

They absolutely couldn't believe it. How could it be possible? Those things were worthless. This down jacket cost hundreds of dollars a piece. How could people like those crappy things?

Anyway, they really don't understand. Maybe people are stupid because they have too much money? Anyway, as long as they have a down jacket to wear, let alone get those old things, they will go to the knife mountain and fry the frying pan without any hesitation.

Liu Chen told them that this matter must be kept secret and not open to outsiders, otherwise so many people would come to ask for the down jackets, and he really did not have the ability.

It's not that Liu Chen doesn't have that ability, it's mainly because there are too many people and the influence is not good, and things can't be explained clearly, right?

This thing cannot be eaten in one bite, but it must be done gradually, and haste makes waste.

"That's great, Ah Chen, you are really capable."

"It's great. The Chinese New Year is coming soon. I also got such a handsome down jacket to wear. It will really brighten the eyes of my relatives when I see them during the Chinese New Year."

"Isn't that right? During the Chinese New Year last year, my old cousin wore a new cotton-padded jacket, not to mention it was too noisy. This year, I want him to know why the flowers are so red."

Several people were talking to each other and laughing.

"Okay, what are you talking about? The food is ready, it's time to eat."

Wang Mudan looked at Liu Chen and others with a smile and said.

Wang Mudan and others got up at 4 or 5 o'clock this morning to make breakfast. This morning they made seafood porridge, steamed white flour steamed buns and multi-grain steamed buns, stir-fried bacon bracken, hot and sour cabbage, radish vermicelli, beef sauce, and pickled snowflakes.

Scrambled eggs with red chives.

"Oh my god, Ah Chen, your breakfast is actually so rich?"

"Yes, this is too rich, isn't it? What kind of porridge is this? It's really delicious."

Maozi and Ergou had never had any seafood porridge. Although Achen gave them some seafood, Liu Chen was in a hurry and he didn't have time to ask Liu Chen how to eat it.

"It's nothing, just don't dislike it. If it tastes good, just eat more of it."

Wang Mudan served everyone a big bowl of seafood porridge. Today, there was a lot of seafood porridge cooked in a big pot.

Everyone held the bowls and smelled it. It was so fragrant. Then they picked up their chopsticks and started to devour it.

"Oh my God, this is the best breakfast I've ever had."

"Yes, it's really fragrant. It's so delicious."

Everyone was talking while eating.

"Ah Chen, every time I come to your house for dinner, I'm never disappointed. It's always delicious."

"I really want to move into your house and eat the food cooked by my aunt every day."

"Okay, eat it quickly. I'll teach you how to eat it. Break this steamed bun apart, put some beef sauce on it, add some vegetables, and then put a piece of meat. It will become a roujiamo."

Let’s all learn from Liu Chen’s way of eating. Not to mention, it’s really much more delicious this way.

Good guy, two big baskets of steamed buns were finished in one morning, and a big pot of seafood porridge was also finished. This is not enough. If there is still more, I guess everyone can drink more.

.

After everyone had finished eating, they were cooking on the coal stove in the living room.

The snow outside is getting heavier and heavier. It's snowing heavily. It seems that I won't be able to return to the county town today.

Zhao Guangming and Zheng Yaqing looked at the falling snowflakes outside, and they expressed joy. It would be better if they didn't go back this time. They could stay at Liu Chen's house for one more day, mainly because the food at his house was really delicious.

, I really don’t want to leave.

Liu Chen didn't care. Anyway, he didn't have any good food at home, so he could definitely eat enough. Besides, when the snow stopped, he wanted to take Pili and She-Wolf up the mountain, so the goods would definitely be full.

Full.

To be honest, Liu Chen has never gone up the mountain after snowfall. He has long heard Zhang Yanjun and Zhang Xiaodong say how nice the mountain is after snowfall and how convenient it is for hunting and catching animals. He has wanted to go there for a long time, but he hasn't waited until

It's snowing heavily. It's finally going to snow heavily. We can't miss this opportunity.

As the saying goes, if it doesn't snow, it will turn into snow. It's not very cold anyway. The children are going to school with their schoolbags on their backs. Liu Chen looked at the snow and thought, forget it. After all, it's hard to walk to school with such heavy snow.

It's embarrassing, since I have a car anyway, and Zheng Yaqing's truck is still there, so it's not in vain.

"Brother Zheng, let me use your truck to take the children to school."

"A Chen, what did you say? Send the children to school? Drive a truck to school?" Liu Jiefang almost lost his grip on the cigarette he was smoking and fell to the ground.

This is a truck, not a tricycle. This is a big object. Besides, can Ah Chen drive it? This is no joke. If it drives into a ditch, it will be troublesome.

"Don't worry, it'll be no problem."

"How about I drive the children to school."

"It's okay. It's cold outside. You drink tea at home, crack melon seeds, and eat peanuts. I'll be there. Trust me, don't worry."

When the children heard that Liu Chen was driving a truck to take them to school, they were not only shocked, but more happy.

They have gone to school by tractor and tricycle, but they have never gone to school by a large truck.

There is no other way. Liu Chen also wants to drive a tricycle to school. But when he wanted to drive it just now, the car ran out of gas. It is too late to buy one now, so he might as well drive a truck.

"Achen, can you do it?"

"Don't worry, there's no problem at all."

Zheng Yaqing still looked at Liu Chen doubtfully, and looked at Liu Chen's firm expression. Forget it, just trust him for once.

Zheng Yaqing said as he took out the truck key from his pocket and threw it to Liu Chen.

"Children, get in the car and take you to school."

Liu Jiefang, Wang Mudan and several sisters all looked at Liu Chen in shock, shaking their heads. This Chen is really nonsense. How can anyone drive a truck to send children to school? Isn't this a waste of national resources? What's going on here?

It’s snowing, not raining. Is it necessary to drive a truck to school?

In this era, even if it rains heavily, no parents will send their children to school, let alone if it snows. Although the snow is heavy and the wind is not light, it is not rain after all, so it doesn't matter.

Is it necessary to send the children to school?

Liu Jiefang thought, if Captain Liu found out about this, his son would be scolded again, and Captain Liu's pipe pole would even fall on Liu Chen's head.

But, this kid didn't listen and still shouted for the children to get in the car.

"Uncle Chen, you are a god and an angel. I love you so much." Liu Damao looked at Liu Chen and said with a smile.

"Come on, Glib, get in the car quickly."

Liu Hehua also came here, as did brothers Liu Xiaotian and Liu Xiaolong. They climbed into the truck one by one, not to mention how happy they were.

"Let's go, take the truck to school."
