Siheyuan: Since 51

Wang Xiong raised his eyebrows and smiled complacently.

"Student Lin, we meet again. I think you are very good at speaking and I want to establish a revolutionary friendship with you. Which dormitory do you live in?"

Lin Zhiyuan couldn't help but chuckle, he said it was an accidental encounter, and he didn't even blush at all.

"Student Wang, I'm a working college student and I'm usually not at school."

Wang Xiong was stunned and asked again: "Where do you work?"

"Red Star Steel Mill."

"I'll come find you when I get a chance."

……

After parting with Wang Xiong, Lin Zhiyuan went straight back to the steel rolling mill.

A few days ago, for unknown reasons, the factory suddenly cancelled Lin Zhiyuan’s three days of school a week.

For this reason, Lin Zhiyuan had to find Zhu Dexi and ask for the next textbooks and homework.

"Boom boom boom!"

Sitting in the office, Lin Zhiyuan was reading a book when there was a knock on the door.

"Enter!"

Lin Zhiyuan said casually, and then Liang Zepeng pushed the door open and walked in.

"Lin Ke, are you busy?"

Lin Zhiyuan stood up and greeted him: "Ze Peng, you are not busy. Come and sit down. How did you have time to look for me?"

The two sat down and each of them lit a Daqianmen.

Liang Zepeng smiled bitterly, "Lin Ke, I'm undecided about something, so I'd like to ask you for advice."

Lin Zhiyuan twitched his chin and said, "Why are you being so polite to me? Just tell me."

"Soybean stocks are running low, and they are not available on the market. The canteen is about to run out of soy products. I am thinking about applying to go to the south, but I don't know if it is feasible."

After Liang Zepeng finished speaking, Lin Zhiyuan touched the tip of his nose and said thoughtfully: "Soybeans in the north will not mature until September. In the south, they are almost harvested now, so there should be no problem. What are you worried about?"

"Director Li said that after the autumn harvest, our factory's food will be supplied by our superiors. If we purchase in large quantities now without permission, will we be punished?"

Lin Zhiyuan took a puff of cigarette and exhaled the smoke.

"What does Director Li mean?"

"It's up to me to decide whether to go or not. If I go, the responsibility will be on me if the higher-ups investigate. If I don't go, the employees will also blame me."

Lin Zhiyuan couldn't help but laugh. Lao Li and Liang Zepeng seemed to be relatives, but it was so official.

"It's about your future, so I can't give you any advice."

Lin Zhiyuan laid the groundwork first, then changed the subject: "If it were me, I would choose to go. Compared to my future, I would rather not face the criticism from my fellow workers."

Liang Zepeng picked up the water cup and took a sip. After a few seconds, he showed a hint of determination, "Lin Ke, I know what to do."

After Liang Zepeng left, Lin Zhiyuan had just sat down and read for a few minutes when Li Huaide pushed the door open.

"Ze Peng is looking for you?"

Lin Zhiyuan chuckled and joked, "I thought you didn't care about him!"

Li Huaide sat on the sofa, took out a pack of Daqianmen from his pocket, threw it on the table, and cursed with a smile.

"What are you talking about? He is my aunt's cousin, how could I not care about him?"

Lin Zhiyuan's eyes lit up. Wow, Lao Li started throwing cigarettes again. Has the economic problem been solved, or has corruption started again?

Coming to the sofa, he asked with a smile: "Why don't you give him some advice?"

Li Huaide crossed his legs and said helplessly, "How? Help him analyze the problem clearly, but it's up to him to choose. Who can guarantee that the judgment will be correct? If there is a mistake, will the relatives still do it?"

Lin Zhiyuan thought about it and realized that this was indeed the case. He nodded and said, "That's right. You are very thoughtful."

"Stop praising me. What will he choose in the end?"

"He didn't say anything either. I guess I'll go."

"It would be best if he goes. I hope he goes, too. If he doesn't go, he will be 100% derelict in his duty. If he goes, there is only a 10% or 20% chance that he will be punished."

After saying that, Li Huaide sat up and became serious.

"Xiao Lin, there is something you need to be prepared for."

Lin Zhiyuan's eyebrows twitched, and he put away his smile, "You say."

"When the street office is restructured into a sub-district office, our factory will also expand its management scope. Apart from other things, the Zhenhua School next door will be incorporated into it and become a factory-run school."

Lin Zhiyuan was puzzled and asked suspiciously: "What does it have to do with me?"

"Propaganda, school publicity cannot be neglected."

Li Huaide's face became more serious. "My father-in-law said that the school system reform indicates that education will become one of the focuses of work. If we do it well, it's our duty. If we don't do it well, we will be punished."

Lin Zhiyuan rubbed his fingers lightly and fell into deep thought.

Li Huaide continued, "After all, you can't stay in school every day, so you need to have a set of procedures to ensure that the publicity work is in place. If you think about it in advance, there is still a lot of time."

Lin Zhiyuan nodded. Lao Li was really nice to him. Moreover, he always knew all kinds of news in advance. He was simply an insider in the steel mill.

"Okay, Brother Li, I'll keep it in mind."

Then he asked again, "By the way, Brother Li, our factory is going to build a staff building, is that true?"

"It's not even a matter of a minute. Even if the factory wants to, they don't dare to do it for now!"

Li Huaide snorted and curled his lips, "Don't forget, Secretary Jinmen just ate peanuts on the Lantern Festival."

"I told you, if this was true, you would definitely let me know."

As he said this, Lin Zhiyuan made a joke, "You are the gossiper in my mind."

Li Huaide laughed out loud immediately, "Boy, I'm just afraid that you'll suffer a loss!"

Lin Zhiyuan chuckled, "You treat me as your brother, I know everything in my heart, I have it figured out!"

Then, he winked and said, "There is some progress on tiger bone wine, but the price is not low this time. They say it is better than last time, but I don't understand, so I didn't dare to accept it."

Sure enough, as soon as this was mentioned, Li Huaide immediately became excited.

"Money is not a problem, get it as soon as possible. If you can't make ends meet, just ask, I'm here for you."

Just a few months later, Li Huaide was rich again. Lin Zhiyuan couldn't help asking, "Brother Li, weren't you short of money before because of bleeding? What's the matter with this..."

Li Huaide immediately understood, "Don't let your imagination run wild."

As he spoke, his face turned gloomy. "To tell you the truth, I wanted to keep the tiger bone wine for myself to drink slowly. Later, it was too difficult to have no money, so I asked my father-in-law for help and he gave me 10 million."

Lin Zhiyuan's eyes widened. Wow, both the father-in-law and the son-in-law like that? And, Old Li was really ruthless to his father-in-law.

Li Huaide stretched out his hand in front of Lin Zhiyuan and waved it, "Don't be stunned! Be careful and make sure to get it. The more of this kind of good stuff, the better."

"to make!"

After Li Huaide left, Lin Zhiyuan was not in the mood to read and instead thought about school promotion.

The answer is in the previous life, so it’s not that difficult.

It is okay to raise the national flag and sing the national anthem.

As for military training, it seems that it is not very effective.

There is no problem with visiting red bases and organizing patriotic activities.

……

On August 8, 15 and 16, the first unified college entrance examination was held, which provided a continuous source of talents for the national construction.

Lin Zhihui ushered in the second turning point in his life.
