Siheyuan: Sending my younger brother to the countryside to raise pigs

Wang Shuwen looked at Yan Jiecheng with a scrutinizing gaze.

He said, this person looks very smart, how could he not know the identity of the leader.

Li Zhengdong's expression did not change from beginning to end.

"No job? That shouldn't be the case. With your skills and the ability to drive, where else would you go and not be considered a hot commodity? How did you end up in this situation?"

Yan Jiecheng smiled and replied: "Well, how should I put it? My craftsmanship is like an antique. It looks gorgeous, but it is difficult to cash in."

As he spoke, he patted the steering wheel and said, "You also said that this thing is precious, and there are only a few in the whole city. Who should I go to for repairs? Don't you agree?"

Li Zhengdong nodded, "What you said makes sense. It's a pity to have extraordinary skills but no space to display them.

It is said that the masters are among the people, and this is indeed true. There are so many talents like you who are buried among the people. Our country still has a long way to go. "

It is now 1965, and only 15 years have passed since the founding of New China.

In addition, three years of natural disasters had just passed, the entire country was in a state of feeling its way forward, and the industry had just started. Having a job was a luxury, let alone giving full play to one's strengths.

Thinking of the current environment, Yan Jiecheng had a headache. "Yes. Our country was founded not long ago, just like a fragile baby who just had a serious illness a few years ago. It is the time when we need care.

I am still ignorant and my hands and feet are not coordinated, so how can I take care of everything? However, I believe that the baby will grow up one day, and our motherland will become better and better. "

Serious illness refers to natural disasters within three years.

Yan Jiecheng spoke completely from his feelings and didn't notice that the other two people in the car looked at him differently after he said this.

Li Zhengdong, who was sitting in the back seat, narrowed his eyes with a sharp gaze that seemed to want to dissect Yan Jiecheng's body, and the astonishment on his face was beyond words.

baby!?

This metaphor... is really appropriate.

The country today is like a newborn baby, ignorant, with uncoordinated hands and feet, unable to take care of itself, let alone others.

This guy not only has skills, but also speaks with depth. He is really not simple.

Such people have fallen to the point of doing nothing all day and spending their time fishing. The whole country doesn't know how many talents like him are buried.

Pity.

what a shame.

Li Zhengdong was heartbroken but he didn't show it on his face. He smiled and said, "Haha, you are really funny, but this metaphor is very appropriate. You are right, the difficulties are only temporary, our country will get better and better, and I believe that soon everyone will find a job that suits them."

Yan Jiecheng agreed with a smile.

This is the truth and cannot be refuted, because he came from the new era.

The three of them talked and laughed along the way, putting aside their identities and having a great time.

Not far from Sijiu City, we met a driver who came with his mechanic.

The car had already been repaired, so the mechanic had no use for his skills and had to return empty-handed.

After entering Sijiu City, Li Zhengdong asked: "Comrade Xiao Yan, where do you live? I'll take you there."

"Oh, I live in No. 95, Nanluoguxiang."

Yan Jiecheng explained it in such detail because he had put a lot of thought into it.

Along the way, he could hear Li Zhengdong's appreciation for him, and he also urgently needed a job to solve his current predicament.

However, there was a huge gap in status between the two parties, and he was not sure whether a high-ranking leader like him would really pay attention to a small person.

But he didn't dare to ask in person. After all, they had just met. If he opened his mouth, people would think he was too utilitarian or trying to repay a favor.

The car stopped at an intersection not far from Nanluoguxiang.

Yan Jiecheng got out of the car and took out fishing gear and buckets from the trunk.

I wanted to give the fish I caught to Li Zhengdong, but after thinking about it, I decided not to.

Such a big leader still lacks a fish to eat?

Although they are not related to each other, he is still eager to give the fish, fearing that others will not know that he has other intentions.

The driver got into the cab.

Yan Jiecheng came to the car and said goodbye to Li Zhengdong.

Li Zhengdong said: "Comrade Xiao Yan, thank you so much for today. If it weren't for you, I would still be standing on the roadside eating dirt. It's getting late, you should go home and eat."

"Okay, take care."

Yan Jiecheng waved at Li Zhengdong through the window and watched the car drive away.

This action attracted the attention and discussion of people around.

Nowadays, not to mention cars, even bicycles are rare, and only people of status can ride in cars.

This young man got out of the car. Could he be some important figure?

But it doesn’t look like it.

He has an ordinary appearance, wears rough clothes, carries a bucket in one hand and fishing gear in the other. How could such a big shot be so down-to-earth and have the leisure to go fishing?

Yan Jiecheng ignored the discussions around him, picked up the bucket, walked home, and lowered his head into deep thought.

Along the way, he did not directly mention his difficulties and demands, but he still implicitly revealed his inner thoughts.

An old fox who has been immersed in officialdom for decades could not possibly not hear his thoughts, but Li Zhengdong also did not express anything.

This made him feel uneasy, but also a little expectant.

However, it is not difficult to understand if you think about it carefully. If he really wants to arrange a job for me, he will not agree immediately. He will probably send someone to inquire about my situation next.

Yan Jiecheng returned to the courtyard with great anticipation and ran into Xu Damao and his wife who were leaving.

As soon as he saw Yan Jiecheng, Xu Damao's face broke into a smile. He glanced at what was in his hand and said nothing nice when he opened his mouth.

"Hey, isn't this our brother Jie Cheng who came back to life? You just happened to be here, why are you going out fishing instead of staying at home? Can't make ends meet at home? Do you know how to fish? Otherwise, the fish will catch you. Haha..."

After saying that, he stretched his head curiously and looked into the bucket.

Lou Xiao'e behind him looked at Xu Damao with an angry look and pinched him secretly, as if blaming him for speaking in a sarcastic tone.

Yan Jiecheng took a deep breath.

The courtyard is not big, but there are many evil spirits here.

"What bad luck. Xu Damao, does it matter to you whether I can fish or not? Do we know each other well? Get out of the way and do what you need to do."

Xu Damao was stunned when he saw the big fish and several palm-sized crucian carps swimming leisurely at the bottom of the barrel.

Wow, this guy actually caught a fish.

This is a good thing. Could such a big fish have been stolen?

"Yan Jiecheng, you didn't steal this fish, did you?"

Yan Jiecheng's expression turned cold, and his good mood for the whole morning was completely gone. He cursed: "Bullshit, Xu Damao, if you can speak, just speak, if you can't, just shut up. Which of your fucking eyes saw that I stole it? Get out!"

Xu Damao and his wife were both stunned.

Is this still the same timid and cowardly Yan Jiecheng?

In the past, when I made a few sarcastic remarks, he always kept his head down and said nothing cowardly. Today, he actually dared to curse back to my face. Is he so bold?

Especially in front of his wife, Xu Damao suddenly felt a little embarrassed.
