Chapter 160 Providing timely help
Upon hearing the other party's words, Li Qin also showed no politeness;
He then turned around, took out Li Huaide's tea leaves from the office cabinet, and then took out a cup to brew himself a cup of tea.
Then, casually, he sat down opposite Li Huaide, holding his teacup.
"I heard from the purchasing department that you went to the countryside. You were there for several days. What did you find?"
After Li Qin sat down, Li Huaide finally spoke.
This wasn't because he actually wanted to know what Li Qin had purchased, but rather because he wanted to chat casually with Li Qin.
Li Qin didn't hide anything at all and said it very casually;
"The harvest this time was pretty good; we managed to purchase a large wild boar and a wild deer."
When the topic of wild deer came up, Li Qin suddenly glanced at Li Huaide.
Deer and wild boars are completely different.
The meat, blood, and antlers of wild deer all have extremely strong nourishing effects.
Li Qin could see that Li Huaide's body was somewhat weak, but if he received these things to nourish himself, his body would soon become vigorous again.
Li Huaide's expression did not change at all when he heard the word "wild boar".
Because he knew that Li Qin had access to some hunters' channels, and as long as the relationship didn't go wrong, he could definitely purchase some wild game from the mountains every month.
However, when he heard the word "wild deer," his smile remained unchanged, but a glint of light flashed in his eyes.
The hand holding the teacup trembled suddenly.
"How big is the wild deer? Has it been put into storage yet?"
Li Huaide immediately pressed for an answer.
For someone like him who needs his father-in-law's help, besides his own abilities, the most important thing is to win over his wife.
This requires a strong physique.
Upon hearing this, Li Qin knew that Li Huaide was tempted by the long-term nourishment from wild deer.
A strange smile appeared on his face.
Li Qin wasn't mocking Li Huaide; it was a genuine smile.
That's why he came to find Li Huaide, which was also related to the wild deer. Now that Li Huaide was interested, it suited his wishes perfectly.
"After cleaning, there was less than 100 pounds of meat left. I have already sent it to the purchasing department for weighing and recording."
Li Qin said calmly.
Upon hearing this, a look of disappointment and regret flashed across Li Huaide's face.
Li Huaide is currently only a deputy division-level leader, not yet the future deputy factory director.
Although he wielded considerable influence in the steel mill due to his powerful connections, there were still many leaders with higher positions than him.
And Li Huaide was certainly not the only one tempted by such a desirable creature as wild deer.
Even though Li Huaide was in direct charge of logistics, he wouldn't actually be able to get much wild venison into his own hands in the end.
The vast majority will definitely be divided up by other leaders.
If it were other wild game or meat, Li Huaide wouldn't care too much, but considering the powerful nourishing effects of wild deer.
Li Huaide immediately felt a great sense of regret.
But at that moment, Li Qin suddenly looked at Li Huaide with a smile, and then leaned slightly towards him:
"Don't worry, Uncle Li. I actually managed to get two wild deer this time. I'll send one to the steel mill and deliver the other one to your home tonight."
Besides the processed venison, I also brought back deer blood and antlers for you.
Li Huaide, who was feeling disappointed, suddenly showed a look of surprise in his eyes when he heard Li Qin's words.
A flush of excitement flashed across his face.
"Okay, okay!"
While wild deer meat has nourishing effects, it is still far inferior to deer blood and antlers.
If all three are used together, the effect will naturally be even more pronounced.
For Li Huaide, this was a timely help.
Upon seeing Li Huaide's reaction, Li Qin was initially taken aback, but then gave Li Huaide a strange look.
A look of sudden realization appeared on his face.
Noticing Li Qin's expression, Li Huaide's excitement froze, and a hint of embarrassment flashed in his eyes.
He then wanted to explain.
Upon seeing this, Li Qin preemptively spoke:
"Uncle Li, you don't need to say anything more, I understand. Don't worry, I will ask those hunters to pay more attention to these things in the future."
I'll try to get you as many nourishing and good-natured things as possible.
Li Huaide originally wanted to explain a bit more.
But after hearing Li Qin's words, he couldn't care less about losing face or feeling embarrassed.
The main reason is that the two have a close relationship.
Li Huaide nodded quickly, a smile on his face, and said:
"Then I'll leave it to you. Don't worry, I definitely won't let you suffer any losses."
Li Qin still believed in Li Huaide's generosity.
Therefore, he did not ask what benefits the other party would give him, but simply nodded.
As for the wild deer, Li Huaide would definitely pay for them; he wouldn't let Li Qin give them away for free.
Li Qin didn't ask about the price either;
One reason was that he trusted Li Huaide, and the other was that Li Qin didn't value these "small sums of money" very much.
Li Qin didn't ask, and Li Huaide didn't say anything either.
He knew the value of these things, and Li Qin was one of his own.
Just as Li Huaide said, he would never let Li Qin suffer a loss.
"Then come over early tonight, and you can have dinner at my house."
Li Huaide nodded to Li Qin.
Li Qin was taken aback at first, then nodded with a smile;
He knew very well that this was a privilege reserved for truly close friends, signifying that their relationship had taken another step forward.
Li Qin naturally wouldn't refuse.
After finishing their business, the two chatted casually in the office.
After a while, and having drunk the tea in his cup twice, Li Qin bid farewell to Li Huaide and left.
Li Huaide did not try to persuade him to stay.
However, when Li Qin left, Li Huaide stuffed several unopened packets of cigarettes into Li Qin's hand.
Li Qin naturally wouldn't refuse such a good thing.
He readily accepted it.
Although his smoking habit was not strong, it could even be said to be very mild.
However, Hua Zi was still very interested in this period, just like some of the fine wines of that time.
Even though he doesn't have a strong desire for alcohol, he doesn't mind tasting it.
After leaving Li Huaide's office, Li Qin rode his bicycle leisurely towards the courtyard house, a cigarette still dangling from his mouth.
There were still one or two hours left before I got off work.
Therefore, he didn't encounter many people on the way.
However, when Li Qin returned to the courtyard, he found that the door god Yan Bugui was there.
Although the school's schedule was not exactly the same as the steel rolling mill's, Li Qin knew that at this time, the school was definitely not yet dismissed.
Teacher Yan Bugui has already returned, which undoubtedly means he left early.
"Xiao Li, you're back! I haven't seen you for the past few days. Did you go to the countryside to buy supplies?"
When Li Qin saw Yan Bugui, Yan Bugui also saw Li Qin.
When Yan Bugui saw Li Qin pushing the bicycle, a look of surprise immediately appeared on his face.
Although he knew that purchasing staff in the steel rolling mill's purchasing department would be assigned bicycles after they were officially hired, that would only happen a few months after they were officially hired.
Most of the newly promoted employees didn't get assigned bicycles.
Li Qin was assigned a bicycle in his first month after becoming a full-time employee, which surprised Yan Bugui.
