Chapter 77 Waste Cotton

“Xiaoxia, it’s better to come by chance than by chance. Come quickly, there is something new here.”

The salesperson next to him quietly winked at Xia Zhi, pulled Xia Zhi and walked behind the curtain next to him in a low voice.

There are a lot of people queuing up there to grab food.

 Summer Solstice understands the meaning deeply.

He hurriedly took out the basket he had made.

 In addition to making quilts, they were not idle during the summer solstice. They wove a lot of mats out of reeds, as well as various other things at home.

This kind of basket is very unique in its weaving. The outside of the basket is decorated with special thorns, so it looks very beautiful, especially with a lid on it.

The female educated youths liked it very much, especially when Xia Zhi gave them a jewelry box that they could use to make a jewelry box. These female educated youths were so happy.

There is no place to buy this thing here.

 The lack of material forces working people to use their imagination and labor to work hard to change this barren life.

 Add a little sparkle to life.

Sure enough, this basket made the salesperson’s eyes light up.

  "Hey, who made this? There is actually the word "福" on this basket. Let me see the five blessings coming to my door!"

“Sister, I made this up myself. It’s not worth much. I brought it to you specially.”

“If you like it, I’ll make two more for you next time.”

“Oh, one is good enough. They don’t have this thing. I didn’t expect you to be so handy.”

“Sister, I have received your wish. Okay, don’t tell me that there are freshly arrived vegetables here. Hurry up and put them in your basket.”

 Salesperson Xiao Min is about the same age as Xia Zhi.

The two of them got along very well last time. Coupled with Director Wang's role in it, Xiao Min and Xia Zhi have a very close relationship.

With nimble hands and feet, Xiao Min untied a large bundle of leeks, grabbed more than two kilograms of leeks, weighed them, wrapped them in paper and stuffed them into Xia Zhi's backpack.

“There are also tofu and bean sprouts. See what else you want. I’ll get it for you from the warehouse at the back.”

Xia Zhi was not polite. He packed a lot of tofu and bean sprouts, and handed his list of vegetables to Xiao Min.

 These are the vegetables that all the educated youth asked her to buy before setting off.

This time, even Feng Xizhu and the others took the initiative to ask her to buy groceries.

 After the last incident, Feng Xizhu and others were punished, so they are very honest and well-behaved now.

After loading everything into the car, Xia Zhi said goodbye to Xiao Min and ran back to the supply and marketing cooperative. Sister Zhang had already weighed the fish for her.

And it’s wrapped so tightly that you can’t even tell it’s a fish from the outside.

“A total of sixteen catties, one catty costs two cents and five cents, four yuan.”

Xia Zhi took out four yuan and held the fish in his hands with a smile.

 There is really no room for it in the basket.

 The two of them walked out of the supply and marketing cooperative with smiles on their faces and went directly to the backyard.

Zhou Zhengan had already led people to load things in the car. When he saw the shape of the newspaper in her arms, he knew it was a fish.

 “Give me the things first! Director Wang is waiting for you in the warehouse!”

He reached out and took the newspaper from her arms, and then took the basket from her back.

 Weighing the weight in his hand, Zhou Zhengan looked at Xia Zhi with a bit of disbelief.

This girl can really endure hardships, even carrying such a heavy backpack on her shoulders without saying a word.

 “Zhou Zhengan, thank you!”

They also need to give Xia Zhi and the others materials for making quilts, which Xia Zhi has to count in person.

 The quantity is not even close to good, and there will be problems when the time comes to deliver the tasks.

The moment Xia Zhi raised his face and smiled, Zhou Zhengan suddenly felt a little uneasy breathing. I don’t know when, he realized that Xia Zhi seemed to be different from the Xia Zhi he had first seen.

In just a few months, the girl who looked thin and dark had grown by half a head. When she first saw him, she seemed to only reach her shoulders, but now she seemed to have almost reached his. Ear base.

The originally dark and yellow complexion is now as white as fine porcelain.

The only thing that hasn’t changed is that her eyes are still as bright as the stars in the sky.

 Although Xia Zhi also smiled in the past, that smile gave people a feeling of alienation.

 It's like wearing a mask, deliberately smiling to show others.

But now when Xia Zhi smiles, the corners of her mouth are slightly raised, and her eyebrows are curved and full of happiness and joy.

This kind of smile can deeply infect the hearts of everyone who sees her.

It's like I drank a bowl of honey water in my heart now, it's so refreshing and sweet.

Xia Zhi took Liu Zhiyan and the two of them to the warehouse to check the materials for the next month with Director Wang.

"Xiaoxia, you have to think carefully about what I told you, if it is interesting. Next time you come, I will make arrangements for you and ensure that you choose a suitable candidate."

 Director Wang is still trying his best to be a matchmaker.

 Xia Zhi glanced at two sacks piled in the corner of the warehouse. The sacks revealed the cotton inside.

“Director, what is this cotton?”

 “I looked at the cotton and it looked like it was dirty.”

 If he doesn’t change the subject, Director Wang will soon be able to talk about his life-long events.

Upon hearing this, Director Wang glanced at the sack.

“Well, this cotton was returned as inferior quality. Look, the cotton seeds inside were not cleaned, and there are so many impurities in it.”

 “Then what is this cotton used for?”

Xia Zhi felt something in her heart. All the quilts she had made so far were made from Zhou Zhengan’s quilts.

To be precise, the cotton-padded jacket and trousers she wore were made by sneaking some cotton wadding from under the quilt.

 But it’s actually very cold when I wear it. When I go out to clear the snow on weekdays, I’m always running around freezing.

“This is waste. You see, it’s too difficult to get rid of all the cotton. We will dispose of it at a very low price. After all, if someone goes back to talk about cotton, I guess they can get some that can be used.”

“Director Wang, do you think this cotton can be disposed of by us?”

Xia Zhi immediately said with a smile, "If you don't get the discount now, there won't be this store in this village."

 It is rare to encounter such a good opportunity.

“You want it, okay, I’m telling you this cotton doesn’t need to be voted on, if you want it you have to take it all.

 We do not sell this in pieces.

 Two hemp bags don’t matter, they cost ten yuan. The two hemp bags add up to at least 200 kilograms. Although there are a lot of defective products inside, if those impurities are removed, there should be no problem in making quilts. "

 Director Wang has a good impression of the female educated youth Xia Zhi in front of him, otherwise he would not rush to introduce Xia Zhi to her.

 Of course I am willing to give this favor to Xia Zhi.

 Director Wang himself definitely despises this cotton. With his rights, it is very easy for him to want cotton, and there is a lot of cheap cotton.

“Director, I want them all. Thank you, Director Wang.”

Of course I want them all during the summer solstice.

This waste cotton seems to be more difficult to others, but it is a bit troublesome to go back and need to deal with it.

 But there is absolutely no problem in making cotton-padded clothes and quilts.

 Clean all this out, and out of 200 pounds of cotton, at least 120 to 30 pounds can still be used.
