The Fiery Era of Siheyuan

Chapter 58, start work

The next day, Monday.

Li Weiguo got up early in the morning and waited for Hong An outside the courtyard gate ahead of time.

Although there are more than a dozen families living in the courtyard now, it is not easy for you to enter if outsiders come and are not guided by acquaintances.

So Li Weiguo came out to make contact early, just to avoid misunderstandings when people came later.

Just after 07:30, Hong An arrived with several of his big workers.

Hong An led the way, followed by three men, pushing a trolley in from the entrance of the alley, and a trolley of fellows was loaded into the trolley, and soon arrived at the gate of the courtyard.

Li Weiguo greeted everyone, took out the front door and handed one to each of them, and then led them into the courtyard.

At this time, the big guys were rushing to work, and when the courtyard was the busiest, a few strange men came in suddenly, carrying various tools in their hands, which immediately attracted everyone's attention.

The uncle who was just about to go out saw so many people coming in. He stopped Li Weiguo out of curiosity and asked, "Weiguo, what is going on?"

"Hey, isn't this my house? I asked a decorator to come over to see it yesterday, and I'm going to start construction today. This house has all kinds of problems after a long time, and I can't live without repairing it." Li Weiguo smiled to everyone. explained.

It's just repairing the house, nothing unusual, this kind of old house is repaired every year, so the big guys didn't ask much, and they were all rushing to work.

After dismissing the curious people, Li Weiguo brought Hong An and the other four to his house and led them inside.

At this time, the room had been cleaned up by the Yan brothers and was completely empty.

My own clothes and daily necessities were brought to Shazhu's house, and all other things were piled up in the corner outside, covered with a tarpaulin.

After taking Hong An and others around for a while, and explaining the construction needs to everyone, he handed over the site to Hong An, and then pushed his bicycle and went out to work.

The west gate of the rolling mill.

It happened that my master was on duty today, and Han Dayou was on guard. In the duty room, my master Wang Zhenhai was chatting with Xu Dong.

Li Weiguo parked the car next to him and stuck his head through the small window of the duty room: "Hey, Master, Brother Dong, what are you talking about, are you so excited?"

"Hey, you kid, you can't come in through the main entrance if you're not upright?" Wang Zhenhai smiled and pointed to Li Weiguo.

Xu Dong also laughed and said: "That's right, such a big guy has grown up, and he's still like a child."

Li Weiguo smiled when he heard this, quickly took his head back, walked around from the duty room to the main entrance, parked the car and walked in.

Walking up to Wang Zhenhai, he took out a lunch box from his satchel and put it on the table: "Master, this is the breakfast I brought for you."

The lunch box was opened, and there were two steamed buns and two eggs inside, which he had prepared in advance in the space, and they were still warm when they were taken out.

"I told you to just eat it yourself and bring it to me every day," Wang Zhenhai said helplessly.

The apprentice is good and filial, but he is so bad at living that he doesn't know how many children he will have left in a month.

"Master, don't worry, can I still be hungry for a big man like me?" Li Weiguo laughed and took another steamed bun from his bag and handed it to Xu Dong.

Xu Dong was not too polite, he took it and gnawed: "Uncle Wang, why are you worrying about him, you see that he eats fine grains every now and then, there is no shortage of this at all, so feel free to eat."

Li Weiguo's living standard is not known to others, but Xu Dong knows that he is on duty with Wang Zhenhai every day. He sends things to Old Man Wang every now and then, and he can also benefit from it.

"That's what I said, but I still have to save. I don't do physical work, so I don't need to eat so well."

Wang Zhenhai shook his head helplessly, took out some tea leaves from the drawer and put it into the enamel jar, preparing to make himself a cup of tea.

"Master, let me do it." Li Weiguo took the water cup from his hand, took the thermos kettle, and poured hot water into it.

As soon as the hot water is brewed, the aroma in the tea cup is extraordinary.

Li Weiguo sniffed and asked, "Master, what kind of tea is this, so thick?"

"Haha, this is 'high breaking'." Wang Zhenhai laughed, and then said: "If you want it, there are still two taels in the drawer, take them all."

"Gao Sui" is also known as "Gao Mo", also known as labor insurance tea.

It is a kind of tea unique to BJ in the old days. It is actually the powdered tea leaves sifted out when tea shops are sifting tea.

This kind of powder is discarded and useless in other places, but in the old BJ, it was a very popular tea raw material for the poor.

In this era of limited material supply, tea is very rare, and the old BJ would also choose high broken tea when entertaining guests, which is already a very rare tea.

"Forget it, you can keep it for yourself. I'll get you some high-end tea later." Li Weiguo shook his head and did not ask for this tea.

Such a small amount is not enough to drink a few times, forget it.

With space in hand, can you still drink tea?What a joke, when you get the seeds, you must plant dozens of them.

After coming out of the duty room, Li Weiguo rode his car back to the security department office building to click.

After walking into the office of the picket unit and saying hello to everyone, Li Weiguo sat down and started working on today's work.

Although there are usually no big cases in a large factory like a steel rolling mill, there are a lot of trivial things, whether it's a dispute or a violation.

After working for almost an hour, I finished processing the case report in my hand.

Stretching, Li Weiguo shouted at the security guard Zou Ting: "Zou Ting, I've finished processing these transcripts and case reports. You can take them to Section Chief Dong." He said, and handed over a stack of documents in his hand.

Now that Dong Jianjun is in charge, he basically presides over the work of the security department, so the documents have to be signed by him, and finally the toolman Sun Yucheng signs.

"Okay, Chief." Zou Ting took the document, turned around and went out to deliver it.

After finishing the work, Li Weiguo got up and went to the back kitchen. He had to prepare lunch for Hong An and others.

According to the rules, when people come to work at home, the host has to provide lunch. No matter how good it is, at least it must be enough for them to eat.

The monthly meal tickets issued by the factory are fixed, and Li Weiguo doesn't have many, so he can only bring his own food and vegetables if he wants to help out in the kitchen.

Walking to a corner outside the back kitchen, with a thought, I took out a small basket from the space, which contained 5 catties of 85 powder, three or four cabbages and a catty of fat pork.

Since it is to let people come to work, it is not good to let them eat too badly. You can make more steamed buns, and if you can't finish them, you can just put them in the space and eat slowly.

Li Weiguo didn't go through the main entrance either, and went directly through the back door of the back kitchen with a basket in hand.

A group of people in the kitchen are busy washing and picking vegetables and making preparations.

And Sha Zhu was holding an enamel jar, sitting there like a rich landlord, humming a little song and drinking tea.

He is the master chef of Yi Zao. He usually does not need to do the tasks of washing, picking and chopping vegetables. He just sits and waits for the cooking. The other tasks are handled by apprentices and assistant cooks.

"Brother Zhu, are you busy?" Li Weiguo approached and shouted.

"Hey, Wei Guo is here, are things ready?" Sha Zhu looked at the things he was carrying.

"Well, it's all here. There is a catty of fat in it. You can keep half a catty for yourself, and do everything else."

Li Weiguo put the basket at the foot of Shazhu, and gave it to the back kitchen, which was not too much. Everyone could eat one or two bites, which was considered a sweetness, no more.

"Okay, just come over and get it later." Silly Zhu made an OK gesture to express his peace of mind.
