Siheyuan: Starting from a Truck Driver

He seemed a little excited about this sudden action.

When Liu Feng recalled the predicament he was in at that time, he couldn't help but frown.

Cigarettes were distributed and people around took them.

Xing Liuzhu turned a blind eye to this.

All the efforts paid off.

......

...

When I saw Section Chief Li Aiguo nodding at me, I thought he must have understood something in his heart.

but.

Jiang Zhi's younger brother Liu Chunhua was sitting in the dispatch room.

During those days at the distant border, what I was concerned about was not these few pounds of braised meat.

Jiang Zhixia saluted Li Aiguo, then solemnly took the certificate and showed it in front of the audience.

"But that contribution was so small, why did he choose to tell that kid in person..."

"Comrade Li Aiguo, due to your outstanding performance, as the representative of Qianmen Locomotive Depot, I now award you the title of this year's Railway Model Worker."

If this matter spreads, it will definitely be a good story in our section.

Everyone on the stage was shocked by Xing Liuzhu's action.

"Duanzhang, do you want to impose some degree of material punishment?"

It is obvious that Xing Liuzhu did this just to steal my limelight and enhance his personal prestige.

I thought I could accept the meager amount of braised pork that the maintenance section gave to Xing Liuzhu.

His deep eyes were filled with smiles. He patted my shoulder, straightened his chest and walked into the venue.

The work in the dispatch room was actually not as important as Jiang Zhi imagined.

"The fourth piece of good news is that Comrade Jiang Zhixia selflessly donated 70 kilograms of my braised pork.

The aroma, the glossy color...it's so delicious when you take a bite.

He raised his voice and winked at Li Aiguo mischievously.

Please congratulate Comrade Jiang Zhixia for her contribution, and follow Comrade Xing Liuzhu's example and learn from her hardworking character.

It really takes a lot of courage to punish someone in front of his superior.

At first, Li Aiguo was a little confused.

Even Section Chief Li Aiguo did not expect that Xing Liuzhu would be so generous this time.

I turned around excitedly, pointed at the staff and leaders on the stage, and whispered, "It's almost noon. Comrade Xing Liuzhu has decided to contribute 70 kilograms of braised meat. Our lunch today will be particularly sumptuous."

Such anecdotes add a bit of color to everyday life.

I was very excited facing these colleagues and leaders in the maintenance section.

A real generosity

When he saw the red banner outside the meeting room, he understood.

Seventy large pieces of braised meat were shared by hundreds of workers, but in fact, there were only a few meat scraps on each person's plate.

In fact, the workers only become generous and buy some meat products during the Spring Festival.

Xing Liuzhu pointed in the direction of the dormitory area.

I work a four-hour shift every day, sitting in the dispatching room to stay awake and dispatching one train after another.

After Xing Liuzhu praised him, he suddenly lowered his voice and said, "Lunch time will soon be here. Are you planning to be generous and share the remaining meat with the little ones?"

The bright red paper reflects brightly under the sunlight.

"I want it!" Xing Liuzhu stretched out his hands.

"Just now, seeing how you were calculating carefully, I thought you would be a cheapskate. I didn't expect you to be so considerate."

The doctor is not young but handsome, with outstanding looks and temperament, and is as eye-catching as a noble white swan.

He immediately pulled Li Aiguo up to the podium, held his strong hand tightly and announced loudly:

“Quack, quack…”

The clear and passionate voice echoed throughout the locomotive depot with the help of the microphone.

Learning from Comrade Jiang Zhixia is important, but the most important thing is of course to be able to enjoy meat.

Xing Liuzhu, the section chief, is a down-to-earth man who doesn't play empty tricks.

In Liu Feng's impression, he is the most handsome boy he has ever seen.

"Liu Feng, you are going to the cafeteria to eat. Does he want some of Xing Liuzhu's braised meat?"

"Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Duanchang. You are truly a Duanchang who serves the people wholeheartedly."

Compared with other special factories, the salary and benefits of the locomotive depot are slightly lacking.

Which train driver would not think that taking a nap outside the driver's building is the most comfortable and relaxing thing?

Liu Feng muttered in his heart: He is obviously trying to show off.

The workers who did not participate in the small group were also infected by the lively atmosphere and became excited.

Debt collection in an open and aboveboard manner

Riding a beloved tandem bicycle?

Never worry about traffic jams?

There are also light and cheerful tunes along the way.

Li Weidong rode his bicycle between the courtyards.

Turning into the yard, noisy sounds immediately entered my ears.

"Master, your skills are not up to par. When you settle your wages later, I will have to deduct some money from you."

“How can I fail?”

"Look at that wall. It's not built evenly at all. It looks like the messy fangs of a wild animal."

The civil engineer looked at the place where Jia Zhang pointed, and his face flushed with anger: "Aunt, those are stone bricks, and they are not flat. If you want them to be smooth and flat, you have to apply a layer of cement dust on them first."

“No matter what you say, if it’s not smoothed over, you have to deduct my money.”

He smiled again and said, "What a coincidence! Master, your family is planning to build a stove at home. I may need your help again in the future."

The old master's personality is really lovable.

You originally intended to use this money to buy painkillers.

In the past, they naturally needed to use concrete.

Tan Zhaohang was able to get the ration receipts, but it was impossible for Wang Xiaokui.

Yi Zhonghai finally chose to deal with the issue personally.

Yi Zhonghai walked down with his hands behind his back, looking like a family patriarch, and spoke in an anxious and majestic tone.

The civil engineer originally agreed to work for the Jia family out of kinship.

Li Aiguo looked at the muddy hands tightly holding the banknotes, his teeth chattering with anger, and stared at the civil engineer angrily.

"Since you are leaving, you might as well do a good deed while you are there. You will have to pay them in the end anyway. Out of kindness, you can ask them to pay you back the money they owe you."

However, Jia Zhang thought that burning lime was too expensive, and insisted that the masons use straw mixed with yellow mud to build the walls.

Although he agreed verbally, the bricklayer was still full of confidence in his work.

"Does this matter? The Jia family is a tenant outside our courtyard. If they fail to pay the debt compensation to the working people, it means that our Qiheyuan is bullying ordinary workers."

However, when the wall was almost completed, Jia Zhang began to find fault.

Hearing this, the neighbors who were watching all frowned in unison and discussed in low voices.

The nearby cement factories did not have much "high-quality" cement to distribute to workers and managers as welfare.

Li Aiguo remained silent.

"Master, your stove hasn't been repaired for a long time. It can still be used, but I want him to make a new stove."

Just at this moment, Jia Zhang came back pushing her bicycle.

Did you also get into trouble with Tan Zhaozhong during that time?

"broken..."

In that era, ordinary working people had a humble status and there was no concept of "malicious wage demands".

After calculating the wages for the whole morning, the bricklayer was not deducted more than ten yuan.

After Dongxu comes back, I have to find a suitable time to discuss with Dongxu how to deal with Jia Zhang's affairs.

On the surface, there was nothing special about Jia Zhang's family situation.

Li Aiguo squinted his eyes, raised his head arrogantly and said: "Who told you to be malicious? If you had done good deeds earlier, you wouldn't be in this situation today."

Jia Zhang parked her bicycle and stopped in front of Li Aiguo.

As expected.

The scene in front of the Li family’s door came into view.

At least three dollars needs to be deducted, which is just enough to buy painkillers this month.

That was a good opportunity for the bricklayer to practice his craft; how could he expect to get paid for wasting such a small amount of building materials?

She always stood in front of the Half Moon Gate and watched.

"About a ton," the mason gave the number cautiously.

That amount is what can be left to pay the remaining balance.

Before understanding the whole thing,

Li Aiguo said:

Hearing this, he nodded excitedly: "Okay, if you can promise to make him do bad things, I will promise you."

……

"What?" the bricklayer was puzzled.

After packing up his tools, he was about to leave.

Rice cannot be exchanged for cement, and even landlords and wealthy businessmen after the founding of New China may sometimes withhold workers’ wages.

He would set off tomorrow and go to Tianjin to discuss trade routes with Fatty.

I didn't expect that he would choose to look back and pretend to see it.

“Speaking of justice, who could go against the principle of working people at that time?”

……

However, unexpectedly,

Although she had lost her momentum, she still stiffened her neck and stared at Qin Zhaohang.

This happened when she asked outside residents to help build a house, and they got the project at a lower price.

Whenever he thought of what happened next, Li Aiguo subconsciously shrank his shoulders.

Under Yi Zhonghai's introduction, the bricklayer offered the highest price for the construction of the Jia family's house, which was a total of seven cents.

"Alas, when we meet such a person who knows the rules, we have no other choice!" The bricklayer sighed, holding the tools in one hand.

Yi Zhonghai crossed his hands behind his back.

No one can do anything to him.

"Don't mind him, it's his business and has nothing to do with you."

The bricklayer has become the boy's mentor.

For a master, whether the apprentice can achieve something is of course more important.

Of course he should be allowed to do so.

Things were complicated enough as they were.

"You mean we should use cement?" Jia Zhang suggested.

……

Unexpectedly, everything turned out like this.

A solution that works.

Seeing this, Jia Zhang could no longer bear it.

Bringing gifts from Liu Tianquan and Liu Diquan, she came to Liu Xiaomei's home.

"Okay!" Jia Zhang said, "He will leave first. When you have prepared the cement, come back and inform him."

Indeed, for a bricklayer with unskilled skills, Li Aiguo's behavior was completely understandable.

Wang Xiaokui, a young boy hanging around in Pigeon Market, has no formal customer base and is merely the deputy director of a cement factory.

Having been stuck at home for so long but still not getting any money, the Jia couple were worried about their children's tuition.

After witnessing Li Aiguo making things difficult for the bricklayers, they felt quite conflicted.
