Zhang Junping was very happy that his second cousin could think of this.

Although it is not right, my second cousin starts for the furniture factory.

"Second brother, be generous in life and work. Sometimes, you should not be too concerned about personal gains and losses!

Just like building a road, don’t say you’re giving all the 30,000 yuan gravel and lime to the commune!

If there is insufficient funds for road construction in the future, our furniture factory can also use the money to fund the commune's road construction!

Think about it, who will be the most beneficial to the road after it is repaired?

At most, others just go to the city to sell vegetables. What about us?

The road is still the most that our furniture factory has taken!

Whether you buy wood from outside or transport the finished furniture, you can’t do without a road!”

"Huzi, I find you are so smart!

If you used half of your intelligence to study, you would have been admitted to college long ago!"

"Second brother, there is no necessary connection between intelligence and academic performance!

How many people in this world have poor academic performance because of stupidity?

Most of the poor study is because they don’t put their attention into their studies!

I like to think about it, so my academic performance is generally average and above average!”

"I think you are too smart, so you don't study!

Just like my third uncle asked you to be an apprentice in the furniture factory before, you look like you are careless, you are late for work every day and leave early!

That's because you can learn something, so you feel boring!"

"Ha ha……

Second brother, don’t praise me. I know whether I am smart or not!" Zhang Junping felt embarrassed by Dong Jianjun’s praise, and used his laughter to hide his embarrassment.

Is he smart?

Maybe!

But you can't do it in one's way.

He is really lazy, he is so lazy that he is too lazy and is late and leaving early.

Instead of what Dong Jianjun thought about, he would be able to do everything and feel it was not challenging, so he would be cynical.

When they arrived at the foot of Gushan, the two of them found a restaurant and had a bowl of noodles before they came to the stone factory.

There was no one in the stone factory, even a doorkeeper.

In fact, the so-called stone factory is a valley at the foot of the mountain.

There are piles of stones of all sizes piled up inside.

This thing is not worth much and is not afraid of stealing it, so there is no need to arrange for people to see it.

Zhang Junping searched around and found the person working in a lime kiln.

"Comrade, we are from Jinhe Village and want to buy some lime and gravel to build roads!

Do you know where the people in the stone factory live?”

"You want to buy lime and stones?" A middle-aged man looked up and down at Zhang Junping.

"I am the director of the stone factory!"

"Are you the director of the stone factory?" Zhang Junping looked at the middle-aged man in surprise. He never expected that he could find the real owner if he just asked someone for directions.

"Yes!" the middle-aged man nodded.

"Then you..." Zhang Junping glanced at the smoke-producing lime kiln.

"The stone factory has gone bankrupt, I always have to have a meal, right?

Build a lime kiln by yourself and make a living!" The middle-aged man did not care about Zhang Junping's questioning eyes and explained casually.

In the mid-1980s, China had not yet begun to carry out major construction.

Still working hard to solve the problem of food and clothing.

If you don’t engage in construction, the benefits of the stone factory will naturally be poor.

When ordinary people build houses, they don’t need stones, and at most they will buy some stones.

Even if you buy stones, you usually don’t buy them in state-owned stone factories. All the villages that back to the mountains sell stones, which are good and cheap.

The same is true for lime kilns. They have no technical content. There are many people who can burn lime in the villages that are backed by.

Almost all the villages in Gushan have lime kilns, which are much cheaper than lime burned by the state-owned stone factory in the county.

Therefore, the stone factory cannot continue to operate.

The director of the stone factory built a small lime kiln near the stone factory to burn lime for sale, which was a helpless move.

Have to eat, right?

"Your surname?" Zhang Junping handed a big chicken cigarette.

"My surname is Zhang!" The middle-aged man was obviously surprised that Zhang Junping actually smoked such good cigarettes.

No one is willing to suck the big chicken cigarette with a transitional mouth, let alone a farmer.

"A coincidence! My surname is also Zhang!" Zhang Junping smiled.

"How many stones, lime do you want to buy?"

"Thirty thousand yuan!"

"How many?

Cough cough cough!" The middle-aged man was frightened and coughed with smoke.

"The stones cost 30,000 yuan! Lime is about the same number!"

"Little comrade, are you kidding? What roads do you build for 30,000 yuan of stones and lime?" In his opinion, Zhang Junping was teasing him. For the sake of the big chicken cigarette Zhang Junping gave him, the middle-aged man did not turn against him directly and asked patiently.

"It is to build all the roads in our commune and lay them with stones and lime!"

"My little comrade, I still have something to do with you, I don't have time to joke with you!" The middle-aged man's face became bad, and he was almost cursing.

"Director Zhang, don't worry, take a look at this!" Zhang Junping said as he took out the IOU from the gear factory.

"This is the IOU that you owe the gear factory 30,000 yuan, right?

Now, this IOU County has given us Zhu Liu Commune!”

"It's useless if you have an IOU! Our stone factory hasn't paid any wages for half a year, and the workers have long been disbanded!"

"I don't want money, I want stones! There is no problem with stones to pay for the debt, right?" Zhang Junping asked with a smile.

Looking at the IOU in Zhang Junping's hand, the middle-aged man's face was unstable.

Those piles of stones and stones are a bunch of useless things to others, but in his opinion, they are all money.

During this period, many of the stones in the stone factory have been turned into lime and exchanged for money.

Now Zhang Junping takes the IOU and asks to pay the bill with stones, which is simply a robbery of his money.

"Stones can be burned into quicklime, but stones cannot!

We not only need stones but also lime when building roads!

I just looked at the stone factory and there were a lot of stones and no quicklime at all!

I can only buy quicklime after looking back. There are a lot of lime kilns in Gushan. Who can I buy them from?" Before the middle-aged man could refuse, Zhang Junping said with a smile again.

Zhang Junping's words scared the middle-aged man. He didn't expect Zhang Junping to be so smart.

Yes, he secretly made the stone from the stone factory and burned it to quicklime.

Those stones are indeed as Zhang Junping said, and they are useless. They burn quicklime, and the stones are too broken.

"Director Zhang, I don't know anything else, and I won't talk nonsense!

If you hand us those stones in the stone factory!

I can make the decision afterwards, buy all the lime from you!”

"Can you make the decision?" This time the middle-aged man was moved.

"I will introduce myself. I am the director of Jinhe Furniture Factory!

This time, the road construction in our commune is the money paid by our Jinhe Furniture Factory!

You said, can I make the decision?" Zhang Junping showed a bright smile on his face.

He knew that this was done.

If this is put into later generations, the middle-aged man answered Zhang Junping's affirmation, I owe money from the gear factory, and don't owe you money, you ask the gear factory to come to me!
