After the rescue team finished resupply, the turnover of the gas station on that day was pushed to the 50,000 yuan mark in one fell swoop, which became the highest single-day turnover of the gas station in ten years since its establishment.
Chen Mu watched the scene where the middle-aged man led the rescue convoy roaring into the depths of the desert after returning from Yakashi Village, and silently blessed the group of customers in his heart: "I hope you can find someone smoothly and come back here again...Come on !"
After the rescue team left, old man Li Yi didn't leave, as if he was going to wait for news at the gas station.
Chen Mu was impatient with the reception, and he couldn't completely ignore them, so he had to let the old Uighurs accompany him.
Unexpectedly, the old man Li Yi also served as a militiaman before joining the army. This common experience made him and the Uighur old man surprisingly easy to chat with. The two old guys, who are very different in terms of social status and wealth, chatted. He actually opened a bottle of white wine and drank it with peanuts.
"Brother, I have two sons. The eldest one grew up at my feet, and he followed me to do things after he grew up. I think taking care of him is enough, but the second one..."
"When my second child was born, I had already started Xincheng. At that time, I was too busy to take care of him. My wife left early, so I didn't take care of this kid. I really felt that I owed him..."
"If something really happened to the second child this time, I don't know how to explain to my mother when I go underground in the future."
…
The old Uighur listened quietly most of the time, and when the old man Li Yi toasted, he would raise his glass to touch the other party and comfort him: "Brother, it's okay, your second child will definitely come back alive, don't worry. .”
Chen Mu looked at the old man Li Yi drinking heavily, and felt that his bed would definitely be given up tonight, so he simply packed up and took Hu Xiaoer away from the gas station, and went to Karadada Village alone.
Recently, the forestry company's business has expanded, and Chen Mu is in urgent need of more labor. He had already agreed with the village head of Kaldada Village that as long as he said hello, he would immediately organize the villagers to come to work.
Although everyone's enthusiasm is very high, Chen Mu still wants to clarify some things first, so as to avoid disputes that will be difficult to deal with.
He didn't pull Hu Xiaoer for riding. Although this guy has grown in size, he is still not tall enough, and he is a single peak, so he knocked his buttocks when riding, which was uncomfortable.
To be honest, his wives are more comfortable riding, but brothers and wives are not allowed to ride. If it is not necessary, Chen Mu will try not to bother them.
He pulled Hu Xiaoer because he wanted someone to accompany him, and it was getting dark, Chen Mu was afraid that he would accidentally go the wrong way, so it would be safer to take Hu Xiaoer with him.
"Do you recognize Karadada Village? It's the place where you went to their school last time and shitted on their playground as soon as you entered... Tsk tsk tsk, you should remember such a embarrassing thing?"
Chen Mu said as he dragged Hu Xiaoer along.
Hu Xiaoer followed Chen Mu step by step, he didn't know if he heard what his elder brother said, but he didn't react at all anyway.
Chen Mu didn't put a noose on Hu Xiaoer. He felt that this animal was not a domestic animal but a wild camel, so he just put a leather collar around his neck with a skin color similar to his.
This leather collar has metal rivets on it. It looks very punk. The leather collar is used for decoration when there is nothing to do. When necessary, Chen Mu will hang a small rope on the collar as a leash. Anyway, this idiot has no objection , seems quite happy.
After walking for more than an hour, I finally came to Karadada Village. Every household in the village was lit with oil lamps, and the whole village looked hazy and beautiful in ancient times.
As the sole sponsor of the school, Chen Mu's foothold is of course in the school, so he went directly to the school.
Lu Li and Ga Enen were eating, and they were a little surprised when they saw the appearance of Principal Chen: "Why are you here? This is not the time for Chagang?"
"I'm eating noodles, can I have a bowl too?"
School Manager Chen sat down at the dining table and acted as an uncle.
Lu Li is a hardworking person, he stood up and said, "Okay, I'll feed you next time."
under…
Director Chen was quite speechless, and glanced at Ga Enen, Ga Enen obviously noticed this old stalker, glanced at Chen Mu, but didn't say anything, only Lu Li was a real person, he didn't notice anything, the following went.
Manager Chen was not idle, and after thinking for a while, he took out the flyer of the "Sunflower Dance Competition" that he brought from the city, spread it flat on the dining table, and said to Ga Enen: "Look at this. "
Ga Enen picked it up and looked at it, then looked at Chen Xiaoding in confusion: "What's wrong with this...?"
Manager Chen said, "Do you think our children can sign up for this competition?"
After a slight pause, Director Chen felt that his statement was not accurate, and said, "Do you think our children will win prizes if they participate in this competition?"
Ga Enen shook her head without thinking much: "Although I don't know the judging criteria of this competition, I have heard of this competition before. It is still very famous in our country of Xia. It is estimated that there should be quite a lot of people participating. It is not easy Take the prize."
Director Chen asked unwillingly: "Just compare in the city, and you can't get the ranking?"
Ga Enen thought for a while, and said: "If you start preparing for this matter a few months in advance, let the children rehearse a dance, and then practice hard for a few months, it should be okay. Now it's too rushed, I guess there is no way .”
Manager Chen was a little disappointed after hearing this, so he had no choice but to give up the idea of participating in the competition.
But he thinks this matter is still reliable. After thinking about it seriously, he said to Ga Enen: "Why did I suddenly tell you this matter today? In fact, I think so. The children here are studying. In terms of cultural knowledge, there is still a gap with children in big cities. After all, the conditions are here, right. But they also have their own advantages, such as singing and dancing. Many of them have been nurtured in their daily life since childhood. It can be regarded as a bit of talent, like little Ayimu, I think she can dance very well, the key is that she likes it herself... well, I just want to say, if children can use their strengths in this area, it will be good. Very good, I hope you, as their music teacher, can pay more attention to it."
Ga Enen pondered for a while, then nodded: "I understand, I will pay attention to it in the future."
Manager Chen was still a little worried, worried that this girl Gao would not understand his thinking, so he said: "I hope there will be such a competition next time, our children can participate, whether it is an individual or a group, let them Go out more to see the world." After a slight pause, he continued: "As for spending money, you don't have to worry, just tell me what you need, and I will support you."
"I understand what you mean, don't worry."
Ga Enen looked at Chen Mu with a look that seemed she didn't know Chen Mu, and suddenly said kindly: "I really can't see that a guy like you is so kind to children... Tsk, can you tell me why?" ?"
