Chapter 47

When the car arrived in Guangzhou, Qi Zhongmou got off the car with Lan Wufeng, found the bus stop familiarly, and rushed to the Erqing Guest House.Before leaving, he had told Lin Zhenhua in detail the location of the guest house and the bus route. Lin Zhenhua told him that he must wait for him to meet after finishing the work, and Qi Zhongmou readily agreed.

It was the first time for a group of people from the Hanhua Factory to go to Guangzhou. Standing at the Guangzhou Railway Station, their eyes were darkened.However, Spischer Company has helped to arrange for a girl named Schumann to pick up the station, and also drove a minibus to take the group directly to the Xiuhe Hotel.

"My god, there are dozens of floors in such a tall building?" Zhong Rulin looked up at the main building of Xiuhe Hotel as soon as he got out of the car, tsk-tsk.Hanhua Machinery Factory only has a few small two-story buildings, and the rest are bungalows.Even in Nandu City, the provincial capital, the tallest building is about six floors, and Zhong Rulin has never seen a building higher than six floors.

"How can there be dozens of floors, or nine floors...or ten floors." Kong Haijiang stretched out his fingers and counted, but he still couldn't count clearly.

"This building is not very tall. The tallest building in Guangzhou is a 27-story building, which is the tallest building in China." After all, Zhu Tiejun has seen the world. The legend is still very familiar.

The so-called 27-story building refers to the Guangzhou Hotel built in 1966. The main building has 27 floors and a height of 86.51 meters. It is located in Haizhu Square by the Pearl River. It was once the tallest building in the country. holy place.However, by 1976, Guangzhou had built a taller Baiyun Hotel, with a main building of 33 floors and a height of 114.05 meters, setting a national record again.Since it has not been built for a few years, this 33-story building is not as famous as the 27-story building.

Luo Qinsheng was a worker and didn't have much experience. He asked in surprise, "A 27-story building? How many rooms does it have?"

Zhu Tiejun said with a smile: "I don't know exactly how many rooms there are. However, I heard that during the Canton Fair one year, the Japanese devils wanted to make trouble with us, saying that they would take over the entire 27-story building. At that time, our staff dared not Make the decision, think about it, the building is occupied by Japanese people, what about the other foreign guests? Report this matter to the leader, and the leader instructed: Agree, let the Japanese take care of it.”

"Really let the Japanese do it?" Zhong Rulin asked curiously.

Zhu Tiejun said: "The leader said that it is okay for the Japanese to pay, but there is a condition. The first room is free, the second room is 1 cent more, the third room is 2 cents more, and so on. The Japanese After thinking about it, it doesn’t matter that this room only costs 1 cent more. As a result, they calculated the rooms in the building themselves, and after the calculation, they found that they couldn’t afford to live in the room after selling all their pants. Think about it, How many rooms does this building have?"

"Haha, the leader is really capable." Everyone laughed.

Lin Zhenhua was also affected by the emotions of the crowd. Back then, there were countless stories of Chinese people fighting wits with foreigners, and some of them would involve some respected people.Some stories are actually just legends, but people still talk about them and believe them to be true.However, most of these stories have a characteristic, that is, the Chinese are poor, and the foreigners are rich. wisdom.

"Everyone, please come in, the room has been opened for everyone." Schumann said to everyone.

Everyone followed Schumann into the Xiuhe Hotel and took the elevator up to the sixth floor.Except for Zhu Tiejun and Lin Zhenhua, everyone else was nervous. After all, they had never been to such a high-end occasion.

Schumann held the keys from the service desk in his hand, opened the doors of the rooms one by one, and arranged for everyone to stay.The Spischer Company was extremely generous and arranged a room for everyone, which made everyone in the Hanhua Factory feel that it was a waste.

"Xiao Shu, I saw that there are obviously two beds in this room. Two people can be arranged to live there, instead of opening six rooms." Zhu Tiejun said to Shuman in this way.

"Mr. Zhu, Mr. Ford from Spischer Company has explained this. They have already paid for the house, so you don't have to worry about it," Schuman said professionally.

Zhu Tiejun said: "This is too wasteful."

Lin Zhenhua said with a smile: "Director Zhu, don't worry about them, anyway, the Americans pay the money. They are willing to pay more. Can't our country also earn more foreign exchange?"

"Well, since it's here, let's settle down." Zhu Tiejun finally said.

Walking into the room, everyone made a fuss again. Not only did each room have a bathroom, hot and cold water, but there was also a small TV. You must know that TV was a rare item in those days.

"Xiaohua, how much will it cost for this night?" Zhong Rulin secretly asked Lin Zhenhua.

Lin Zhenhua spread his hands: "I don't know, maybe ten or eight."

"Ten and eight!" Zhong Rulin clicked his tongue, "My god, if I stay like this for one night, I will lose my salary for a week."

"Don't worry, Master Zhong, haven't you heard what Comrade Shu said, the money is all paid by the Americans, let's use the money from the Americans to open our eyes, this is a real opener." Kong Haijiang said cheerfully Said that he couldn't help but feel lucky for himself to win this business trip opportunity. As the office director, he had quite a few business trip opportunities, but it was the first time in his life to stay in such a high-end hotel.

Schuman stood in the corridor, ready to provide technical guidance for those who live in different rooms to stay in high-end hotels.As a native of Guangzhou, she was already mentally prepared for how guests from small counties in Jiangnan Province would behave.Among these people, the only one who surprised Schumann was naturally Lin Zhenhua. From Lin Zhenhua's words and deeds, Schumann could feel that this young man was not intimidated by the high-end hotel, on the contrary, he seemed to have a good understanding of the hotel's conditions. Some disdainful looks.

Zhu Tiejun was thinking about the equipment in the yard, and asked everyone to put down their luggage. After a brief wash, they started working directly.Schumann took everyone to the freight yard first, took the bill of lading to pick up the goods, and then began to contact the train wagon.After going through a lot of wrangling, the consignment procedures are finally completed, and the machine tool will be loaded and shipped in two days.

"Okay, now we just have to wait." Fan Shibin said, "At that time, we have to watch the porters load the machine tools on the truck with our own eyes, and then we can go back to Fenghua."

"Is this necessary?" Lin Zhenhua asked, "Chief Fan, you don't want me and Mr. Zhong to be responsible for loading the car, right? This machine tool cannot be moved by the two of us."

Fan Shibin said: "Xiao Lin, you haven't read the newspaper. A while ago, the newspaper was criticizing the brutal loading and unloading on the railway. Those porters pushed everything directly from the car, including the TV set. It was pushed down and broken. Ours is a precision machine tool, if we bump it, it will be too late for us to regret it.”

"That's right." Zhu Tiejun said, "With so many of us coming, we just need to have a few more pairs of eyes watching when loading the car. At that time, Xiao Kong will prepare a few more packs of cigarettes, and give a pack to each porter. Don't save money, let these porters be more responsible."

"No problem, Director Zhu. Before I came out, Director Jiang had already approved the funds for me." Kong Haijiang said smartly.

"It's all right now, what's everyone's plan?" Zhu Tiejun looked at the crowd and asked.

"Director Zhu, where is the 27-story building you mentioned, can we take a look?" Zhong Rulin asked.

"I want to see it too." Luo Qinsheng said, "It's best to borrow a camera and take a picture downstairs as a souvenir."

"Yes, I also want to take a picture." Zhong Rulin also said.

"Miss Shu, can you make arrangements for these?" Lin Zhenhua looked at Shuman and asked.

Schumann gave Lin Zhenhua a blank look, as if he was dissatisfied with the title Miss.However, she still satisfied the request of the people in Hanhua Factory: "Everyone, Mr. Ford has specifically explained that I will take care of your life during your stay in Guangzhou. You can put forward any requirements, and I will give you Find a way to solve it. Now I will take you to Haizhu Square, we can take a look at the 27th floor building, and I will arrange for you to take pictures. Next, you probably have to buy some things. It is rare to come to Guangzhou. Do you want to give Lovers and children to buy some souvenirs and the like. Finally, I will treat everyone to a light meal for the Spischer Company. There are some local specialties in Guangzhou that are worth tasting."

Lin Zhenhua smiled and said, "It seems that you really have the potential to be a tour guide."

"What is a tour guide?" Schumann was puzzled.

"It's just..." Lin Zhenhua thought for a while, but couldn't think of a good explanation. "Anyway, he is someone who is familiar with the local situation and is responsible for arranging the itinerary for tourists."

"We do foreign affairs work, we do this all year round, and we are used to it," Schumann said.

"Miss Shu, let me ask if Ford has specifically explained my affairs?" Lin Zhenhua pulled Schumann aside and asked in a low voice. Ford is not in Guangzhou now, and mobile phones were not popular in that year, so Lin Zhenhua couldn't communicate with him at all. Ford got in touch, and he guessed that Ford should explain to Schumann what he asked Ford to do.

Schumann nodded, seeing that other people were admiring the street view, and no one noticed them, so he took out an envelope from Xiaokun's bag, handed it to Lin Zhenhua, and said, "Comrade Lin, this is what Ford gave you, it's from Guangzhou For the bill of lading at the freight yard at the railway station, you just need to pick up the goods and go through the formalities to transport them away. I have arranged a jeep and a driver for you. The driver will accompany you all day today. You can do whatever you want whats the matter."

"Thank you very much." Lin Zhenhua said, "Excuse me, do you know how to get to Erqing Guest House?"

Schumann said: "No problem, our driver also knows, just tell him."

"That's good." Lin Zhenhua came to Zhu Tiejun and asked for instructions: "Director Zhu, the business here is over now, and Ms. Shu will arrange for you to go to Haizhu Square, so I won't go. I'm still here I have some private matters, and I want to take a leave of absence to deal with them, do you think it's okay?"

"You go, pay attention to safety." Zhu Tiejun said, he didn't know what was going on with Lin Zhenhua's private matter, but Lin Zhenhua made such a great contribution, so he still had such a little autonomy in his actions.Zhu Tiejun had some doubts that Lin Zhenhua might have contacted Ford alone, and he didn't intend to go into it.
