Military industrial hegemony

Chapter 8 Play
The next day, Jiang Chen didn't wake up until noon. It was Ma Jun who woke up when he saw that Jiang Chen didn't go to eat and asked the fat man to bring the food.

"Brother Chen, eat some." The fat man said.

Sitting on the bed, Jiang Chen rubbed his head and said, "I don't want to eat. Now I have a headache and no appetite. You can eat."

"I've eaten at home. We called you in the cafeteria." The fat man replied.

"Aren't you eating in the cafeteria?" Jiang Chen got up and asked.

"No, we all eat at home, so that we can save money on meal tickets. Those who eat in the cafeteria are not here at home, and there are single and working masters like you." Panzi explained.

"Oh, forget it, put it there, I'll eat some later." Jiang Chen pointed to the table beside him and said.

"Well, okay, well, Brother Chen, Brother Jun asked me to ask you what you are doing today?" The fat man asked as he put the rice on the table.

Jiang Chen put towels, toothbrushes, shampoo and other things into the washbasin and picked them up while walking outside, asking, "What are you doing? Don't you have to go to work?"

"Well, you also know that the factory is not profitable, so we boys have nothing to do except Brother Jun has a job to do after returning from the army." The fat man continued.

"Then what do you usually do?" Jiang Chen asked when he came to the public bathroom and turned on the faucet.

"Well, we are usually idle, sometimes helping the adults with some idleness, and doing security patrols and inspections with Brother Jun on a regular basis, basically nothing else." Fatty stood aside and explained.

"Eating and dying." Jiang Chen said vaguely while brushing his teeth.

"Brother Chen, we still have some use for it." The fat man explained.

"What's the use, is it a dung making machine?" He continued to be vague.

Fatty: ",,,,,,"

"Okay, what is Junzi looking for from me?" He finally finished brushing his teeth and said clearly.

"Brother Jun said, if you have nothing else to do, meet at the broken warehouse next to the test field at [-] o'clock in the afternoon." The fat man said after Jiang Chen finished his work.

"Oh, what's the matter." Jiang Chen began to wash his hair again.

"You'll know this when you go, it's a good thing." The fat man said helplessly.

"It's still a mystery. I'll go to the technical department and report as soon as I arrive." Jiang Chen said while fiddling with his hair.

The fat man was surprised and said: "Technical department, brother Chen, you don't need to go."

"Oh what's wrong?" Jiang Chen raised his head and asked curiously.

"Everyone in the technical department is at home now, except for the old man who sits in the office and reads newspapers every day." Pan Pan explained.

"Oh? That old man?" Jiang Chen replied while rinsing under the faucet.

"It's old man Yang, the chief of the technical department. This old man has a very stubborn temper. My dad (Chen Factory Director) has said that he can rest at home, but he commutes on time and guards those broken offices." Standing a few steps away, he carefully explained to himself with the water foam on his body.

"It's okay, I'll go find the door and report to you." Jiang Chen finally said while drying his hair with a towel after washing.

"Okay, then I'll go first, remember to come later." The fat man said helplessly.

"En." After bidding farewell to the fat man, Jiang Chen went back to his room, cleaned up the housework, and finally sat on a chair to enjoy the lunch.One meat and three vegetables, not bad, the rice is mixed with rice and corn kernels, although it looks very dry, but Jiang Chen ate very well, because last night he drank and talked with those three old foxes, so he didn't eat much. , I remember that the old foxes packed their bags in the end, leaving Jiang Chen speechless.

Overall, the food is very good. These dishes are green and pollution-free, and the dishes retain a very original fragrance, unlike later generations, so the dishes do not have a little fragrance.After eating comfortably, Jiang Chen groped his way to the office of the technical department in the office building.

As the fat man said, there is really only one old man reading newspapers in the huge office.

"Excuse me, is this the technical department?" Jiang Chen knocked on the door and asked.

The old man tilted the newspaper, glanced at it and said, "Look at the door."

"Oh." Jiang Chen turned his head and saw a sign on the door saying "Technology Department" and was speechless.

"That's it." After speaking, Jiang Chen walked in and looked around.

"Hey, young man, what do you do." The old man knocked on the table a few times and asked.

"Me, I'll just take a look." Jiang Chen replied and continued to watch.

"Look, do you know the confidentiality regulations, your unit." The old man was anxious.

"Me, I belong to this unit." Jiang Chen said with a smile.

"Nonsense, why haven't I seen you in all these years here." The old man said vigilantly.

"I'm really here." Jiang Chen smiled.

"Say, what are you doing, what kind of spy?" The old man asked forcefully while grabbing the teacup next to him, as if Jiang Chen was about to come up and fight Jiang Chen desperately if he didn't answer a sentence correctly.

Jiang Chen waved his hand and said, "Old man, I'm here. I just came to report yesterday and was assigned to our technical department. My name is Jiang Chen. Here is my work permit."

"Oh, you should have said it earlier, you are the young man that Lao Lu praised for helping the factory solve technical problems! You were the one who competed with the Ma family boy yesterday." The old man said while taking the work permit and looking at Jiang Chen.

"That's me, kid." Jiang Chen explained with a smile.

"Are you here to report?" The old man said as he sat back in his chair and picked up the newspaper.

"Well, the factory arranged for me to come here first as the deputy section chief. I hope you will take care of me." Jiang Chen flattered.

"Deputy section chief." The old man looked at him again and threw his work card to Jiang Chen, saying, "Young man has some talent, go back, the factory is almost gone, what kind of deputy section chief."

"That old man, I haven't done it yet. How do you know I can't do it? Besides, our factory hasn't closed down yet." Jiang Chen looked at the old man and said.

"Young people nowadays really don't know the heights of the heavens and the depths of the earth. Forget it, you can come if you want. If you want to clean the table over there by yourself." The old man continued to read the newspaper after finishing speaking.

"I'm here to check the door today. I just made an appointment to come to work tomorrow, so please do your best." After speaking, he hurriedly withdrew.

The old man put down the newspaper, watched Jiang Chen leave for a while, his eyes flashed, and then he sighed and said, "Young people nowadays.",

After bidding farewell to the old man, Jiang Chen came to the broken warehouse that the fat man said, and found two crosses (three-wheeled motorcycles) parked in the shade outside. This kind of car was rare later, but it was very common in the 70s and [-]s Yes, the police station, military government often use it for office work.Although I was curious, I went in after taking a look.

When I went in, I found that several people had already dozed off on the "bed" made of weapon boxes, and Ma Jun also fell asleep on the simple hammock beside him and said helplessly: "Ah, ah, brothers, wake up."

"Yo, Chen Zi is here, what time is it?" Ma Jun jumped off the hammock and said.

Jiang Chen smiled and said, "Sorry, the old man in the technical department is a bit difficult."

"I told you earlier, brother Chen, don't you believe me, what's the matter, you're choking on it." The fat man walked over and said.

Hehe, what did you call me here for?Jiang Chen replied.

Ma Jun patted Jiang Chen on the shoulder and said, "How is it? How about our secret base?"

Jiang Chen looked around, and found that the place is very big and spacious, but it is very old, and there are still some old machines and sundries piled up inside. There is a clean place on the side, and there are tables, stools, beds, etc. piled up with ammunition boxes. Furniture, and some of those shell casings and bullet casing toys around.

"It's not bad." Jiang Chen praised.

"Of course, we have been packing these for a long time." Dongzi replied.

"I see two cars parked outside, yours?" Jiang Chen asked.

Ma Jun laughed. "No, one is mine, and the other is what we borrowed from the driver class today."

"Oh, yours?" asked in surprise.

"Well, I bought a broken one at the second-hand market with a little retirement fee when I came back, and I repaired it myself when I came back." Ma Jun said proudly.

Jiang Chen praised: "You are awesome!"

"Hehe, when I came back, my old man told me several times that I almost broke the family law."

"Where did you go today? I even borrowed a car." Jiang Chen asked

"It's not hot when you stay in the house, I'll take you to escape the heat."

"Oh? What a good place."

"Don't worry, you'll know when you go."

After finishing speaking, he went out first, Ma Jun, glasses and Jiang Chen, Jiang Chen sat on the saddle, Ma Jun rode, glasses rode behind; Dongzi and Fatty rode together.Fatty sits on the straddle while Dongzi rides.

"Just how many of us?" Jiang Chen asked.

Ma Jun threw a long bag wrapped in cloth to Jiang Chen and got on the bike, saying, "It's just us, the place we're going this time is far away, it's not suitable for too many people, so I called some reliable ones." Stomped on the car and rushed out.

"Slow down." Jiang Chen worried.

"It's okay, nothing happens when you play often." Ma Jun said indifferently.

"What is this?" Jiang Chen touched it and exclaimed in surprise, "Gun, you wouldn't rob a bank, would you?"

"Fart, if you really want to grab it, I will carry 40 fire, and 56 will rush out, and 56 and a half will be needed." Ma Jun said while riding.

"Okay." Jiang Chen stopped talking and turned to admire the beautiful scenery next to him.

Dongzi from behind rushed up and sang the volunteer march, and everyone sang along.

"Arrogant, high-spirited, across the Yalu River!,,,,,,"

After bumping for almost an hour, the five people finally came to a small river, and Ma Jun rode the bike directly to the beach.

Jiang Chen got out of the car and looked under a willow tree and said, "Let me tell you, is it a good place?"

"Well, the scenery is not bad." Ma Jun said.

"It's good, but there's nothing here." Jiang Chen looked around and said.

"Who said that?" Ma Jun quickly took off his clothes, leaving only Bayi underpants and said, "It's so hot, you don't want to go for a swim."

"No, I don't want to be half-dead again." Jiang Chen shook his head and said.

"The water here is not deep, besides, there are still a few of us." Ma Jun persuaded again.

"No, I won't go if I'm killed." Jiang Chen shook his head firmly again.

"Okay, Dongzi has a fishing rod, why don't you find a shaded place to fish." Ma Jun suggested.

"This proposal is good." Jiang Chen said immediately.

"Dongzi, give Chenzi the fishing rod." Ma Jun shouted to Dongzi.

"Good." Dongzi took a slanted schoolbag from his ride and said to him, "Brother Chen, you really don't want to go down to play."

"No, let's play." Jiang Chen took out fishing gear from his bag and said, "By the way, why is there no fishing rod?"

"City people are city people." Dongzi said: "There is a knife in the bag, so just go to the side and chop a bamboo." After speaking, he even took off his underwear and rushed into the water.
