Chapter 924
: Delivering Food to the Zhang Family
Chapter 924 Sending Food Home
Although there are all kinds of grain in these three warehouses, the vast majority of them are still corn and sorghum.
After all, in this era, corn and sorghum are the most productive crops and also the most important staple food for the locals.
The food that Wang An left behind was mainly these two things.
Because these two are also the cheapest grains used as livestock feed.
I have to say that the hat brothers of that era were really efficient at their work. They could weigh 30,000 to 40,000 kilograms of grain using just a few pole scales.
Among them, there were a little over 14200 kilograms of corn, a little over 12400 kilograms of sorghum, more than 4200 kilograms of beans such as soybeans and black beans, more than 1200 kilograms of miscellaneous grains and beans such as millet, sorghum, red beans and cowpeas, and the remaining more than 3300 kilograms were rice and wheat.
Of course, there are more than 600 kilograms of processed grains, such as sorghum rice, millet, corn flour, and rhubarb rice.
As for processed fine grains such as rice and flour, there is not even a pound left.
It was obvious that these things were eaten by Wei Cheng and others.
Wang An kept 7000 kilograms of corn, 2000 kilograms of sorghum, 500 kilograms of rice and wheat each. Finally, Wang An kept all the more than 600 kilograms of processed grain.
We have to admit that interpersonal relationships are extremely important and cannot be ignored at any time.
Because when Wang An told Zhang Shuya that he wanted to leave some food behind, both Wang An and Zhang Shuya intended to handle the matter impartially.
In other words, the two of them thought that the food should be priced at a certain price, so they just calculated the price by kilogram.
Anyway, just don't take advantage of the public and don't let yourself suffer any loss.
However, when the logistics manager settled the bill with Wang An, he still charged him a lot less because of Zhang Shuya and Sun Nian's face.
Because he calculated the prices of rice and wheat based on the prices of corn and sorghum.
As for the more than 600 kilograms of grain that have been processed, namely corn flour, sorghum rice, rhubarb rice, millet, etc., the price of corn kernels has increased by 2 cents per kilogram.
After the final calculation, Wang An only paid 373.4 yuan, which means that Wang An paid 70 yuan less!
Now Wang An is actually already a hat brother, so after thinking it over, Wang An got on his sidecar and ran to the village supply and marketing cooperative.
After spending 14 yuan to buy four packs of Classic Ice City cigarettes and another 4 yuan to buy four bundles of soda, Wang An rode his sidecar back to the yard.
According to the number of people on site, two boxes of Classic Ice City must be provided for each person. In addition, since moving food is so hard, it is very necessary for each person to drink two bottles of soda.
As for the two squadron leaders and the logistics manager, Wang An secretly gave each of them two more boxes.
Although Wang An should have given more money to the logistics manager, he did not do so.
Because the reason why the logistics manager gave Wang An convenience was because of Zhang Shuya and Sun Nian's face. There was no need for Wang An to curry favor with him. It was enough to just do what he wanted.
Under Sun Nian's order, all the brothers in hats accepted the cigarettes and soda given by Wang An, and they all looked very happy.
There is an old saying that goes very well, which is "A man who eats someone's food should be grateful, and a man who takes someone's favor should be lenient", so the hat brothers were quite friendly to Wang An, the new colleague.
Under Sun Nian's arrangement, a group of brothers in hats first loaded more than 10,000 kilograms of grain bought by Wang An onto a large machine.
Then Wang An rode the sidecar in front to lead the way, and the big sister followed to Wang An's house. Hearing the roar of the car and the unique sound of the sidecar that sounded like farting, Mu Xueqing, Wang Yi and the two little girls all ran out of the house.
Seeing Wang An in a well suit and a group of brothers in hats jumping out of the car, Mu Xueqing and Wang Yi were so shocked that they were speechless.
The two little girls who were running past couldn't help but stop. Instead of rushing up to Wang An to be hugged by their big brother as usual, they didn't do so.
Wang An saw the performance of these four people and felt that it was quite interesting. He walked forward with a smile on his face, touched the little heads of the two sisters and said to them:
"What's going on? Don't you recognize me, big brother? Hahahaha"
As he spoke, Wang An picked up his two sisters, one on the left and one on the right.
It was not until Wang An started to speak that Mu Xueqing recovered from her shock and subconsciously asked Wang An:
"Xiao An, what's going on? Whose clothes did you borrow to wear at home?"
Wang An never expected that Mu Xueqing would come up with such a sentence. Just as he was about to speak, Wang Yi, who had also reacted, smiled and said:
"Brother, you look really good in this outfit. So handsome."
To be frank, Wang An at this time was wearing a big hat, a well-fitting mining suit, and military hooks on his feet. He looked quite decent indeed.
Wang An smiled proudly at Wang Yi, then said to Mu Xueqing with a smile:
"What do you mean by borrowed clothes? I am now a serious security guard, the kind that can earn a salary every month, hahahaha. Am I serious and cool like this?"
Mu Xueqing was about to speak when a man in a hat who had jumped out of the car suddenly shouted:
"Brother Xiao An, which room should we unload the grain into?"
Wang An quickly turned around and agreed, then turned back to Mu Xueqing and said:
"Let's talk about it tonight. I bought some food and I'll go unload it first."
After saying this, Wang An put the two little sisters in his arms on the ground, then turned around and ran towards the car.
Since Wang An couldn't remember these people's names, and these brothers in hats were all very busy, Wang An didn't give Mu Xueqing a brief introduction.
Under Wang An's command, the eldest sister parked at the door of the east wing. Then Wang An took off his short-sleeved shirt and started carrying grain into the warehouse with a group of brothers in hats.
He had to take it off, because it was a new short-sleeved shirt. The most important thing was that Wang An only had this one and he didn't even have a change of clothes.
So if he was made to look old by wearing it to carry food, Wang An would no longer be able to show off in front of his parents.
Including Wang An, there were a total of 15 young men unloading the truck. They worked very quickly and it took only 20 minutes to unload more than kilograms of grain.
After unloading the grain, Wang An wanted to invite the brothers in hats to come into the house for a drink of water, but these people didn't even enter Wang An's house.
In desperation, Wang An had to give each of them a cigarette and said a few words of thanks, and then they all took the bus back.
After seeing off the brothers in hats, Wang An simply washed his upper body, mounted his sidecar, and headed back to the village.
Thanks to "Liu Tiegang" for the reward, thank you very much!
