Rebirth begins with the waste wood returning home

Chapter 85 Boss Yang
"Boss, how did you sell it?"

Jiang Defu asked directly.

“Pancakes and fried dough sticks are 2 cents each, mutton soup is 1 cent, you can refill as you like!”

The boss saw them and greeted them warmly.

Jiang Defu looked at the boss. He was tall and thin, with a pair of glasses on the bridge of his nose.

He seems to be a scholar. Those who can wear glasses in this day and age must be scholars.

People who don’t read rarely get myopia. Even poor people with congenital myopia cannot wear glasses.

It's just that such a person actually sells snacks. It seems that the conditions at home are not very good.

"too expensive!"

Shi Changsheng said.

Although it costs only a few cents, in his opinion, eating a few pancakes can buy several kilograms of grains, which is a bit too luxurious.

I don’t know if it’s deflation or something else, but now the price of whole grains is 1 cent per pound. With their appetite, each person can eat at least five pancakes, which is the price of a pound of grain.

"Can 30 pancakes, 20 fried dough sticks, and mutton soup be given away for free?"

Jiang Defu smiled.

"Buy that much?"

Shi Changsheng and Shi Daniu looked at Jiang Defu in surprise.

“Take it all away if you can’t finish it!”

Jiang Defu said.

"Give it! Give it! Give it! You three can drink as you like!"

The boss had never met such a big customer before, and he was so happy that he couldn't open his mouth from ear to ear.

A customer who spends 1 yuan at once is definitely a big customer.

These days, meat is not much more expensive than grain, especially mutton soup, which is mainly soup and the cost is relatively low. For the boss, pancakes are much more precious than broth.

Today's food stalls are only open to salaried people nearby, and ordinary people can only buy a pancake.

And now the smallest denomination is usually 1 yuan, so there is no change to give.

Familiar people nearby always record their meals or deposit 1 yuan here to transfer accounts. Folks have their own folk wisdom.

Previously, Jiang Defu went to the supply and marketing cooperative in the town to buy things. Because he had no change to change, he had to make up the entire account. That was just the beginning.

As time goes by, many people are reluctant to give opinions. After all, their families don’t want to buy so many things, and all the money is spent. If they want to do other things, they will not be able to do it, which will affect their lives.

Supply and marketing cooperatives simply adopt the method of bookkeeping and storage, but they all require a letter of introduction from the unit and so on. This flexible method is still not open to ordinary people without legitimate occupations.

The fragrant and hot mutton soup and crispy pancakes made the three of them sweat profusely after running all day and night.

The pancakes were very big and Shi Daniu was very good at eating them. Each of them ate four pancakes in one go without stopping. Shi Changsheng ate three pancakes.

Jiang Defu ate two and invited the two of them to eat fried dough sticks.

Oil is very precious these days, and this thing is a rarity.

The two of them couldn't bear to eat even one piece!
Jiang Defu ate one. Although it was very fragrant, he felt that the fried dough sticks were a bit hard and slightly sour. Compared with the ones he had eaten in his previous life, the taste was really bad.

The fried dough sticks I ate in my previous life were absolutely soft and fragrant.

Jiang Defu knows something about snacks.

In his previous life, his aunt was invited to cook at home. The deep-fried dough sticks were crispy and crispy. Jiang Defu remembered adding baking powder and the like.

"Boss, your fried dough sticks are too hard. You must have made them overnight yesterday. They are so hard that they could be smashed to death!"

A well-dressed man ordered a bowl of mutton soup and a few fried dough sticks.

The boss and his wife looked embarrassed, and hurriedly exchanged pancakes with others, and said that the money for the mutton soup was also included as a gift.

"The deep-fried dough sticks in our unit's cafeteria are soft, and they seem to contain alkaline noodles or something. I said, Lao Yang, if you can't do it, you can make some stuff like this!" said a man in uniform.

"I want to make it too, but there's no place to buy it. I use my own fermented starter. It's okay to make steamed buns and pancakes, but not these fried dough sticks. This thing takes a lot of effort, food and oil. It seems that I can't make it in the future. Got it!"

The boss sighed.

Alkaline noodles?What’s so hard to buy about alkaline noodles? Isn’t it just the stuff used for steaming steamed buns?

Jiang Defu didn't cook much in his previous life, and to be honest, he didn't eat a lot of steamed buns. Although he lived in a pasta area, his grandfather and that old man's favorite staple food was pasta.

But when it comes to young people of their generation, maybe because they live in cities or go to school and eat at school, they only eat steamed buns occasionally and rice most of the time. The diet structure has already changed.

But when my grandfather was alive, he often made steamed buns when cooking at home. Steamed buns were not expensive outside, but the old man was used to saving, so he made them at home.

Jiang Defu was often sent to buy alkaline noodles, baking powder and other things.

"Little brother, these fried dough sticks are not delicious. How about I return them to you? If you stay here for a few days, you can come over for dinner at any time... If not, I can give you more pancakes!"

Jiang Defu and the others arrived late and had already missed their meal. There were fewer people there now.

"It's okay, I can still eat it!"

Jiang Defu smiled and saw that this boss was an honest man.

The couple were looking after a small stall with two dolls. One was eight or nine years old and could help carry the bowls, while the other was five or six years old and played along.

His wife is still carrying one on her back, so life is not easy either.

"Can't you buy alkaline noodles here?"

Jiang Defu finished eating first and chatted with the boss.

"Little brother, you don't know that you can't buy this thing everywhere. In the early years, you could buy some in the shops in the city. In these years... I won't say it. Now everything is in limited supply. There are many It’s basically all for internal use, and it’s not enough for them to use internally…”

The boss lowered his voice and said.

"By the way, brother, where is your coal mine? Where do the foreigners who come here to work go to?"

"We have so many coal mines, more than a dozen of them. Are you going to work in the coal mines?"

"More than a dozen?"

Jiang Defu was confused. If there were more than a dozen companies, it would be really hard to find someone.

"Well, twelve or thirteen! However, eight of them are public-owned, and everyone there is an iron rice bowl. Naturally, they won't want you at will. There are also a few private companies, but they are recruiting people. Little brother, you want Go, I will show you the place, I also know the person in charge there..."

The boss is very enthusiastic.

"Boss, what's your surname?"

"My...my last name is Yang!"

Boss Yang was very enthusiastic and told them the specific locations of those private coal mines.

Are there still private coal mines these days?This seems to be different from what Jiang Defu thought.

But think about it, everything is just on the right track, and it will only happen later...

Boss Yang knew that they were looking for someone, and enthusiastically said that a lot of people from out of town had indeed come to work recently, and they should be working in nearby private coal mines.

I heard that the person they were looking for was a deaf-mute, and I was even more surprised. They said that generally coal mines would not accept such a person because it was too dangerous, but maybe they were just afraid of the lack of people, and some people were doing it for financial gain...

Jiang Defu inquired about the place, and Boss Yang also told him about the people responsible for recruiting workers in several coal mines. In order to make it easier for them to go to those coal mines, he also introduced an old man who drove people to the coal mines to make it easier for them to travel.

"Brother Defu, what did you give to Boss Yang?"

Before leaving, Shi Daniu saw Jiang Defu throwing a small bag of things to the boss. The boss was very confused as to what Jiang Defu was explaining to the boss.

"Just something to say thank you for!"

Jiang Defu smiled.
