Siheyuan: I am different He Yuzhu

Jia Xudong dragged his tired body and slowly walked back to the workshop. He looked up at the clock on the wall and found that there was still plenty of time before the afternoon work. So he looked around and found a relatively quiet and inconspicuous corner. Then he curled up like a lazy cat, ready to take a short nap to replenish his energy.

Time passed by like a white horse passing by. When the bell for the afternoon work rang, Jia Xudong woke up from his short sleep. He stretched his body and stood up yawning. At this time, Yi Zhonghai walked towards him. Yi Zhonghai looked concerned and asked softly, "Xudong, how was the conversation with the introducer at noon?"

Hearing the master's question, Jia Xudong quickly smiled and replied, "Master, the introducer I asked for has already told me the whole situation. She said the other party offered 500 yuan, and when I heard the price was reasonable, I accepted it without hesitation. Moreover, to thank the introducer for her help, I gave her an extra 5 yuan as a reward for her hard work."

Yi Zhonghai nodded slightly in agreement, and then asked, "Well, 500 yuan is not expensive. Did the introducer mention when the other party would retire?"

Jia Xudong quickly responded: "Master, don't worry! The introducer said that the other party will retire next month, so we don't have to wait too long."

Hearing this, Yi Zhonghai couldn't help but smile and said happily: "Oh, that's great! In this way, it won't take long for your wife to go to work smoothly. This is a great joy! You must come to my house tonight. I'll ask your master's wife to cook two side dishes, and we, master and apprentice, must drink and celebrate together!"

"Master, this is a bit inappropriate! You and Master's wife have taken care of me a lot. It's a bit unreasonable to let you spend money to treat me again! How about I wait until Huairu goes to work next month, and then I will treat you and Master's wife to a good meal." Jia Xudong scratched his head and said awkwardly.

"Xudong, we shouldn't be so clear about the distinction between master and disciple. Come to my house tonight. When Huairu starts working next month, you can invite me and your master's wife, and we can celebrate together."

Seeing that Jia Xudong wanted to continue explaining, Yi Zhonghai decisively stopped Jia Xudong from saying anything, and said with a stern face: "Okay, it's settled, let's get to work!"

......

Time flies by like a white horse. Days passed by, and in a blink of an eye, it was time for He Yuzhu to leave for the Western Region Province. Before that, he had arranged all the work matters of the Red Star Steel Plant and the Red Star Machinery Manufacturing Plant in an orderly manner to ensure that both plants could operate normally during his absence.

After everything was ready, He Yuzhu asked the driver of the Red Star Steel Plant to drive him to the Sijiucheng Airport at lightning speed. After arriving at the airport, he quickly picked up his luggage and walked to the airport in a hurry, and successfully completed the check-in procedures.

When He Yuzhu arrived at the airport and prepared to board the plane, his eyes were instantly attracted by a propeller plane not far away. The plane was parked quietly beside the runway, and the huge propeller was shining with metallic light under the sun.

With years of experience and intuition, He Yuzhu secretly guessed that the plane was most likely imported from the powerful neighbor to the north, the Russian bear. However, as to what specific model it was, that was beyond the scope of He Yuzhu, a non-professional aviation enthusiast.

Later, under the guidance of the staff, He Yuzhu followed the crowd to board the plane. Shortly after he found his seat and sat down, the crew member of the plane stood in the aisle of the plane and gave a warm reminder to all passengers: "Dear passengers and friends, hello! Welcome to this flight. The final destination of this flight is the beautiful Dihua Airport. However, we need to remind everyone that this flight is long and has far exceeded the range of this aircraft."

"So, we will make a short stop at Phoenix Airport on the way to refuel. In addition, during the entire flight, we may encounter strong air currents, which may cause a certain degree of turbulence on the plane. Therefore, please be sure to fasten your seat belts throughout the flight and try to stay in your seats. Do not move around at will. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation, and wish you a pleasant journey!"

After hearing what the crew members said, He Yuzhu couldn't help but be stunned. He really didn't expect that from the bustling Sijiu City to the distant Dihua, which didn't seem too far, only about 3000 kilometers, he actually had to land and refuel in the middle of the journey!

You know, even an airplane like this that needs to stop for refueling is imported from foreign countries. At present, we have no way to independently manufacture such advanced aircraft on our own. We have to sigh that the foundation of the domestic aviation industry is too weak. There is still a long way to go in the future for us to explore and develop.

Originally, according to He Yuzhu's original idea, the whole journey from Sijiucheng to Dihua would only take five or six hours. Who could have expected that the actual situation was completely beyond his expectations, and the entire journey actually took as long as twelve hours! Alas, it can only be attributed to the fact that the flying speed of this propeller plane was really slow, and it could not be compared with the later jet airliners that were as fast as lightning!

Finally, after a long flight of twelve hours, the plane that He Yuzhu was on landed safely at Dihua Airport. It is worth mentioning that during this flight, the plane stopped at Phoenix Airport for nearly an hour to refuel. Although the flight took a relatively long time, in any case, compared with the slow way of taking a train, taking a plane is still an extremely fast and efficient travel option.

Fortunately, the lunch served on airplanes in this era was completely different from that in later times. Judging from the appearance of the food, it is obvious that the chefs responsible for cooking these delicacies must have extraordinary skills and superb skills. You have to know that in such an era, people who are qualified to travel by airplane are by no means ordinary people. At the very least, they have to be leaders at the department level or above to have this honor.

However, He Yuzhu was surprised by more than that. He found that this plane actually allowed passengers to smoke and drink during the flight! In this small cabin, there were 14 passengers in total. Except for He Yuzhu himself, who did not smoke, the other 13 people were all experienced and experienced smokers. They lit up cigarettes and puffed out smoke. Before long, the whole cabin was shrouded in thick smoke, as if they were in a fairyland surrounded by clouds and mist.

Faced with such a situation, He Yuzhu was helpless. Although he was very reluctant, he could only be forced to inhale the secondhand smoke. Fortunately, the ventilation system on the plane was quite powerful. Although the smoke was pervasive, the smell was not too strong and pungent, and was still within the range that He Yuzhu could tolerate.
