Chapter 387: Arrange the Glass Display Case
The two of them worked in perfect harmony, as if playing a piece of enthusiastic labor. In a short time, they had cleaned up the originally messy venue into a clean and tidy place.
After finishing this, both of them were out of breath, their clothes soaked with sweat. They smiled at each other.
Taking advantage of this rare break, I found a shady place to sit down and take a short rest to recover some strength and prepare for the upcoming "highlight".
Not long after, Zhao Shuzhuo led everyone back to the supply and marketing cooperative.
Although everyone's faces showed some fatigue, they were more proud and expectant of completing the task.
Without saying a word, everyone quickly gathered around the glass cabinet on the truck and worked together to carry out the moving work.
Some held the bottom of the cabinet tightly with their hands, while others carefully protected it from the side, shouting slogans from time to time:
"One, two, lift! One, two, release!"
With neat and powerful slogans, the glass cabinet was lifted down steadily, and then everyone gently put it in order as if protecting a rare treasure.
When everything was settled, everyone slowly straightened up and looked around the current supply and marketing cooperative with satisfaction and pride.
The brand new glass counter was sparkling with charming luster under the sunlight, and all kinds of goods were displayed on the shelves in an orderly manner.
The entire supply and marketing cooperative was completely renewed and finally had a complete and presentable appearance.
Everyone's hearts were filled with a sense of accomplishment, as if they could see the prosperous future of the supply and marketing cooperative, bustling with customers.
Wang Jianguo was standing in the yard of the supply and marketing cooperative when a light bulb suddenly lit up in his mind. He remembered that the driver, Master Yu, who had worked tirelessly to help them transport the goods was still waiting patiently outside.
He immediately felt a strong sense of gratitude and uneasiness in his heart, and felt that he must not let Master Yu return empty-handed.
So he turned around and hurried into the warehouse. The warehouse was filled with an old and mixed smell, and the goods were piled high.
His eyes quickly searched the corner and found half a bag of rice. The rice emitted a faint luster in the dim light, and the grains were full and substantial.
Then, he carefully selected two cans from the shelf next to him. The cans were polished to a shine and the patterns on the labels were bright and attractive.
He walked outside with rice and canned food in his arms. At this moment, the sun was shining on the tired but resolute face of the master.
Wang Jianguo walked quickly forward with a sincere smile on his face and pulled Master Yu aside.
Then he handed the item in his hand to Master Yu respectfully, and said gratefully:
"Master Yu, you must have been very tired from traveling all this way. You must take this little bit of rice and these two cans of food home to try."
"These are just some gifts from our supply and marketing cooperative. We would be really sorry if you don't accept them."
When Master Yu saw what Wang Jianguo handed over, he quickly stretched out his hands and pushed it away with all his strength. With a simple smile on his face, he said quickly:
"Oh, Director Wang, this is not allowed. You see, Zhang Lei has already given me a box of good cigarettes, and I feel really bad about it."
"I guess, with his financial situation, he can't afford such good cigarettes. I think those cigarettes must have been given by you."
"It's just a short trip for me. It's really not a big deal. Please don't be so polite."
Wang Jianguo frowned slightly when he heard this, his eyes revealing an unquestionable determination. He took a small step forward and said in a tone that could not be refused:
"Master Yu, what you said is wrong. You may think this is just a simple trip, but you don't know how much it means to our entire village."
"Your visit has been a great help to us. These glass counters are the hope of our supply and marketing cooperative."
"With them, we can better serve the villagers and promote the economic development of the village."
"Everyone in our village, from the elderly to the children, is grateful to you. So you must accept this."
"This is not just a thank you for your help this time. We may have many more things to trouble you with in the future."
"Please don't refuse anymore, otherwise I will always feel uneasy."
Master Yu looked at Wang Jianguo's sincere and determined eyes, and felt the deep sincerity in his words, and pondered in his heart.
The person in front of me is so persistent. If I keep rejecting him, it would seem inhumane.
Unable to refuse such a kind offer, Master Yu slowly stretched out his hands and took the rice and canned food handed to him by Wang Jianguo with a hint of shyness and gratitude.
He raised his head slightly, his eyes met Wang Jianguo's, and he said sincerely:
"Okay, Director Wang, since you've said so, I'll respectfully obey your order and won't refuse any more."
"Don't worry. If there's anything I can do to help you, just let me know and I'll do my best."
"Here, I would like to wish your supply and marketing cooperative a prosperous opening and a flourishing business."
"I'm going to go back now. I still have some things to deal with at the train station."
When Wang Jianguo heard that Master Yu agreed, he felt relieved.
He smiled, clasped his hands together, and bowed deeply to his master, his gesture full of respect and gratitude:
"Master Yu, thank you so much. We will always remember your help along the way."
"When the supply and marketing cooperative opens, if you are not busy, you must come and support us, so that we can have a chance to entertain you well."
"You must be very careful on your way back. The road is rough, so please pay attention to safety."
Master Yu nodded repeatedly, saying "sure, sure" over and over.
Then he turned around, walked steadily towards the car, opened the door, and sat in the driver's seat.
With the roar of the engine, the car started slowly, and Master Yu waved goodbye to Wang Jianguo through the window.
The car drove farther and farther away, raising a light cloud of dust, and finally disappeared at the end of the road, heading towards the train station.
Wang Jianguo stood there, looking at the direction the car left for a long time. His heart was full of gratitude towards his master and longing for the future of the supply and marketing cooperative.
Wang Jianguo turned around and walked briskly back into the supply and marketing cooperative. Everywhere he looked, he saw that everyone was sitting on the ground, as if all the strength had been drained out of them.
Some were leaning against the wall, some were leaning against each other, their clothes were soaked with sweat, and their hair was sticking to their foreheads in messy strands.
However, everyone's face was filled with a smile of joy and satisfaction, and that smile looked particularly dazzling on their slightly tired faces.
When Wang Jianguo witnessed this scene, his heart was also infected by the cheerful atmosphere and he was overwhelmed with joy.
