Chapter 49 Don’t worry, there’s still 1 yuan left.
Liu Haizhong asked: "Zhuzi, your life must be difficult. Your father didn't leave you any money when he left. You still have to build a house."
"Yeah, I'm 16 this year, and I'm about to go on a blind date. The wedding house has to be renovated, and I need money everywhere. I'm worried that I can't live any longer."
"Then I can't just ignore you. I'll lend you a hundred yuan to help you tide over the difficulties so that you can marry a wife and start a family as soon as possible."
"Then thank you, uncle. You really saved my life."
Liu Haizhong had already prepared a lot of money and put it in his pockets. He just didn't know how much money he would have to pay to settle this matter, so he put the money in this way.
Although 100 yuan was a bit much, Liu Haizhong was willing to spend it in order to become the master in charge of the hospital and enjoy the pleasure of being an official.
Liu Haizhong was very happy. Since He Yuzhu accepted the money from him, he would have his own position as the steward.
He Yuzhu is also happy, as the donation amount will be 100 yuan more tomorrow.
Although this little money does not help the front line much, it is still my own thought.
My abilities are limited and I can only do this.
I later sold the fish and donated some. After all, donating 250 yuan was a bit unpleasant.
To me, money is just a few pieces of paper. Standing on the bridge of the moat, you can catch dozens of dollars worth of fish in a short time.
What I admired most in my previous life were the soldiers who defended my home and country. I cherished my life and could not go to the front line, so I could still make some donations.
The two talked politely for a while, then Liu Haizhong said goodbye and walked back humming a tune.
He Yuzhu was lying on the bed and was so happy that he got 250 yuan directly. He could do a lot of things by donating it.
I woke up very early the next morning, cooked, took the hook scale and took He Yuyu out.
First he sent her to school, and then carried her sack and scale into the vegetable market.
This is the vegetable market in Beiluogu Lane to the north of Gulou Street. There is also a small vegetable market near Nanluogu Lane. Neighbors in the courtyard will not come here to buy vegetables.
Carrying a sack of fish, I randomly found a stall and spread it out, and people gathered around me.
"Comrade, how do you sell your carp?"
"Two cents a pound."
"Give me one."
At this time, there were not many people selling fish. After all, no one was engaged in breeding. They were all fishing or casting nets to catch fish, and the daily supply was not much.
He Yuzhu's fish stall has always been chosen by customers since it was set up.
By the time the sack of fish was sold out, it was just past 8 o'clock.
He Yuzhu was not far away from the vegetable market carrying the sacks and sacks. Before he could find a chance to send the things into the space, he met Tian Zao again.
"He Yuzhu, how come it's such a coincidence that I can see you everywhere? What are you doing?"
The final question, of course, is why a cook goes to work with a sack and a hook scale.
He Yuzhu said: "What a coincidence. I caught some fish last night and sold them."
"I see. It seems like your fishing skills are pretty good."
"good."
He Yuzhu didn't intend to delve into this topic, so he just wanted to go to work after saying a few polite words.
Tian Zao said: "Now that I have met you, I want to ask about your compound."
In Tian Zao's view, He Yuzhu is just an apprentice and can donate money, which means he is a caring person.
The words that come out of his mouth should be pertinent and fair.
"Okay, I also want to reflect on the situation with you."
Historically, if he had not intervened, Yi Zhonghai, Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui would have become the masters of the hospital.
The two came to a wooden bench under a tree on the side of the road. After sitting down, Tian Zao asked about the courtyard.
He Yuzhu didn't talk nonsense, he only told the basic situation.
Although he deliberately did not want Yi Zhonghai to be in charge of the hospital, Yi Zhonghai pretended to be too nice and did a lot of good things.
If he talks nonsense in front of Tian Zao, Tian Zao won't just ask himself, he will definitely get information from others. Then won't he be a human being inside and outside?
So He Yuzhu could only tell the truth.
Then he also talked about Qian Datong hiding in the countryside.
Tian Zao said: "It seems that he has something in his mind. We will check this matter."
He Yuzhu asked: "Who in our courtyard can be the master in charge of the courtyard?"
"I can't decide on this matter. It needs to be discussed by superior leaders."
The neighborhood committee has not yet been established. Tian Zao is more active and familiar with things on the street, so he follows Li Changying to do some errands.
The two chatted for a while, and He Yuzhu stood up and left. Since they knew each other, they could not donate to Tian Zao.
When we came to the small square in front of the Bell Tower and Drum Tower, there was also a donation office. Many residents donated their clothes, food, daily necessities, and quilts. Of course, there were also people who donated money on the spot, and certificates of donation were issued.
He Yuzhu put on a mask, squeezed forward, took 50 pieces of money and put it on the table: "I will donate yuan and give me a certificate."
"How much more?" The staff was a little surprised.
Nowadays, prices are low, ordinary people don’t have money, and the amount of individual donations is not high.
Normally someone would donate ten or twenty yuan, which is considered high.
Someone came directly and said that he wanted to donate fifty yuan.
He Yuzhu was very direct and put the cash on the table so that no one could suspect that He Yuzhu was lying.
A man who looked like a leader came over and shook hands with He Yuzhu cordially across the table:
"Comrade, thank you for your donation. On behalf of the soldiers on the front line, I thank you."
"This is what every Chinese should do."
He Yuzhu was wearing a mask, so of course he didn't want to say anything more. He just urged him to issue a donation certificate.
"What's your surname?" the leader wrote in person.
"The surname is Zhong." Of course He Yuzhu couldn't tell his real name.
"Oh, your surname is Zhong, what's your name?"
"The name is Chinese."
"Zhong Guoren, it's written."
The person who looked like a leader opened the ticket, and then he realized that the name He Yuzhu just reported was a Chinese one.
This time I was even more moved.
There were many people around who came to donate money and materials, and they all looked at him with admiration.
What shocked everyone even more happened. After He Yuzhu received the first note, he took out another hundred yuan and put it on the table and said: "This is the second donation of 1 yuan, written for Chinese people."
"It was 50 just now, now you have donated another 100 yuan?"
"Yeah, that's really rich."
"."
The people who heard it all commented that they had never seen such a donation.
The leader became even more excited, holding He Yuzhu's hand and not knowing what to say.
"If there were more good comrades like you, our soldiers would definitely have enough weapons, ammunition, aircraft and cannons to fight the Japanese."
"You're welcome, leader, this is what I should do."
"Comrade, which unit do you belong to? I want to write you a letter of commendation."
"There is no need for a letter of praise. This is what I should do. No praise is needed."
He Yuzhu took out a handful of money from his pocket again: "Don't worry, there's still a hundred yuan left."
