Chapter 6 Borrowing money to buy a coal stove
He Yuzhu smashed his mouth and took a sip of wine.
"That's right. If it happens then, brother, I will definitely thank you very much."
Seeing that He Yuzhu had figured it out, Wang Jiuzhi felt relieved that he could still be saved.
After the two had a good drink, Wang Jiuzhi went home. But when he got home, he remembered that he hadn't bought the lock yet.
"Forget it, I'll buy it tomorrow and go to bed first."
It was the next day in the blink of an eye.
Wang Jiuzhi was woken up by thirst early in the morning, but there was no water in the house. He had no choice but to go to the public faucet in the yard, turn on the tap water, put his head over and take a big drink.
"Cool!"
After a big mouthful of cold water fell into his stomach, Wang Jiuzhi's soul came to his senses.
Yan Shuzhai's daughter-in-law Yu Li came over to wash the dishes, but unexpectedly saw Wang Jiuzhi drinking tap water.
"Hey, Wang Jiuzhi, are you just drinking cold water? You're not afraid of getting sick. You can buy a briquette stove that can hot water and cook vegetables."
When Wang Jiuzhi saw Yu Li, he also remembered that she was Yan Jiecheng's daughter-in-law. She was actually quite a good person. She also learned calculations after following Yan Jiecheng's family.
"Good morning, I'm also thinking about buying a briquette stove, but I don't know if it's fast for cooking with hot water."
Yu Li smiled and said, "You have to use it whether it's fast or not. Besides, you don't want to eat when you come back from get off work? You only have one meal in the cafeteria, so you won't be hungry when you come back."
Wang Jiuzhi thought for a moment and realized that he had indeed only eaten one meal at lunch in the past two days and had something to drink with his wine in the evening. He really didn't feel hungry at all.
"That's right. I'll buy one after get off work. Then I'll go to work first."
Wang Jiuzhi took a quick shower and then went to the factory.
Halfway through the walk, he felt that he would have to buy a bicycle in the future. This walk was indeed a bit tiring.
"Oops!" Wang Jiuzhi realized that he seemed to have forgotten something, "Don't Yu Li have a sister? Her name is Yu Haitang. She doesn't seem to be dating that Yang Chu now. Anyway, it's impossible for He Yuzhu to be together. He can first
Get the moon."
Not to mention such a total, Wang Jiuzhi thinks the possibility is still very high. Although he is young and his salary is not high now, it will definitely rise in two years.
It seems that we have to work together with Yu Li. Who wants to be single if we are not single? I just don’t know if I can get married at the age of 16. I remember that it seems that it is possible. At most, it will be okay to wait for two years. It is also OK to get married first.
As he was thinking wildly, he arrived at the factory before he knew it.
Wang Jiuzhi went to his machine and found that Master Liu hadn't come yet, so he simply tried it by himself.
My mind recalled every operation performed by Liu Cheng yesterday and the details he told me. I started to move my hands and steadily picked up the workpiece and placed it on the machine.
Wang Jiuzhi started the machine and followed Liu Cheng's actions step by step in his memory. After a while, a finished part was ready.
He took out the parts Liu Cheng made before and compared them with the ones he made. There was almost no difference.
"You're so awesome, kid!"
The sudden voice startled Wang Jiuzhi. Just as he was about to turn around to see who it was, he found that the parts in his hand were taken away by a pair of rough hands.
He looked up and saw that it was his master Liu Cheng. Liu Cheng looked at the two identical parts in his hands and was very surprised.
"Master Liu, what do you think I did?"
"Did you really make this?" Liu Cheng looked at the parts in front of him, then looked up at Wang Jiuzhi and said, "This is so good, it's almost the same as what I made. Did you really just learn it yesterday?"
Wang Jiuzhi smiled: "Yes, wasn't it you who taught me how to use the machine yesterday?"
Liu Cheng couldn't hide his surprise and asked curiously: "It only took you one day to achieve this level. How did you do it?"
Wang Jiuzhi didn't know what to say. Could it be that this was the benefit of time travel?
He could only smile and say, "Maybe he has some talent."
Liu Cheng laughed when he heard this answer.
"Hey, kid, come here and make a few more parts for me to see. I didn't see them clearly just now."
"good."
Wang Jiuzhi made a few more parts, and each one was no different from Liu Cheng's, which made Liu Cheng a little excited.
"Haha, I have taught a genius apprentice!"
Liu Cheng thought for a while and felt that if Wang Jiuzhi could be well cultivated, his future might be greater than his own.
"In this way, after I finish today's task first, I will teach you how to read the drawings, so that once you see the drawings, you can process any part."
Wang Jiuzhi was a little touched. Liu Cheng is a really nice person. "That's a good relationship. Thank you, master."
"Hey, what's this?"
Next, Liu Cheng asked Wang Jiuzhi to watch him do it. He explained some points that should be paid attention to while doing it, which made Wang Jiuzhi, who had made several parts, understand more thoroughly.
In the afternoon, Liu Cheng finished his workload. He called Wang Jiuzhi aside, took out a drawing and taught him how to read it.
The drawings were actually simpler for Wang Jiuzhi, but the drawings of this era were still very different from those of later generations, so he studied very attentively.
Liu Cheng also noticed Wang Jiuzhi's serious look, so he taught Wang Jiuzhi without reservation.
When you do something seriously, time always flies by.
After Liu Cheng had finished talking about the drawings, he looked up and saw that the other workers were almost done.
"Okay, that's all for today. Go home early."
Wang Jiuzhi nodded: "Okay, master."
After leaving the factory, Wang Jiuzhi went to the supply and marketing cooperative and asked how much a briquette stove cost to see if he could buy one.
"The stove is 12 yuan, and the briquettes are 80 cents and 50 pieces."
"Then wait until I get paid to buy it."
Upon hearing this, Wang Jiuzhi knew that he would not be able to use these things for the time being. Did he know that the coal stove in He Yuzhu's house would not go out, and he used no matter how much briquettes were used in a day. With his current net worth of only a few dollars, he might as well forget it.
.
I'll hold on for a while, luckily I can withstand the cold, otherwise it would be a bit uncomfortable if I didn't get a stove today.
Wang Jiuzhi was about to leave the supply and marketing cooperative when he spotted Master Liu Cheng standing next to him.
"Master, are you buying something?"
"Yes, are you planning to buy a coal stove?"
Wang Jiuzhi nodded and replied helplessly: "I want to buy it, but I don't have so much money now. I'm going to buy it after my salary is paid."
"How can that be done?" Liu Cheng shook his head, turned to the people at the supply and marketing cooperative and said, "Buy a coal stove and 200 briquettes."
The person from the supply and marketing cooperative calculated the price and said: "A total of 15 yuan and 2 cents."
Wang Jiuzhi saw this and quickly stopped Liu Cheng who was about to pay.
"Master, you don't need to buy it. If I, a young man, can bear it later, I can use you to buy it for me."
"Who said I bought it for you? I just lent you the money first and will pay it back to me when I get paid."
After saying that, he gave the money to the people from the supply and marketing cooperative, and added another 1 yuan and asked them to send it directly to Wang Jiuzhi's house to help install it.
Wang Jiuzhi accepted the receipt and said to Liu Cheng gratefully: "Thank you, master, but I can't be polite anymore. I'll pay you back after I pay my wages."
Liu Cheng waved his hand and said that there was no problem at all. After all, a person's monthly salary of 90 yuan was 9 yuan less than that of a big man.
But to others like me, 90 yuan is a huge amount of money. Wang Jiuzhi only earns 20 yuan a month now. Normally, it would take him several years to get a salary increase of more than ten yuan.
Liu Cheng bought other things, and after buying them, he said something to Wang Jiuzhi and left.
"Okay, Jiuzhi, I'll leave first. You should go back early and wait for the person who installs the coal stove."
