Hello 1983

  Chapter 72 Return with a rewarding experience

  In mid-October, the southern part of the country is still as hot as midsummer, but in the remote northern town of Bishui, it is already late autumn.

  People changed into autumn clothes and long johns, and the streets were full of withered and yellow leaves.

  But on this day, on the streets of Bishui County, there was no bleakness of autumn at all. On the contrary, it was full of gongs and drums, and the young pioneers all wore bright red scarves and lined up to welcome them.

   "Yo, it's such a big battle, is it because the top is going to come to the big cadres?"

  Many people are talking about it.

  Someone who knew some inside information said: "I heard that it is a product of our county. At what meeting, it is much more sold, and I have earned foreign exchange for the old nose."

  When the onlookers heard it, they all felt that their faces were radiant. At this time, people have a strong sense of honor.

   When Liu Qingshan followed County Magistrate Wang and the others out of the station, he was also taken aback by the sight in front of him: it was the first time he had experienced the grand scene greeted by thousands of people.

   And there are young pioneers presenting flowers to salute, this treatment, tsk tsk...

   Anyway, I haven’t experienced it before, but when I was in elementary school, I once served as a red scarf to present flowers to others.

  Secretary Gao of the county party committee first delivered a passionate speech, then the county magistrate Wang of the delegation, followed by Zheng Hongqi, and then director Zhou.

  Finally, Liu Qingshan will also talk about it.

  Liu Qingshan waved his hands again and again, indicating that he is really not suitable for speaking as a student, so he avoided it.

  Then, everyone crowded around the delegation to the guest house, just like welcoming a triumphant hero.

   It made Liu Qingshan a little dizzy. All the dedication and hard work finally came together into two words:

   Worth it!

  In the guest house, he was naturally drunk. Liu Qingshan originally drank soda, but Secretary Gao forced him to drink a glass of Moutai, which scared him away.

  Liu Qingshan took a stroll outside to feel more comfortable. In the guest house, he must never go back again. Those are old soldiers who have been tested for alcohol. Would it be good to be caught by them?

   It’s been almost half a month since he came out, and now he has one thought:

go home!

  No matter how prosperous and wonderful the outside world is, only home is the harbor he always misses.

   "Comrade Xiao Liu!"

   Suddenly an extremely eager voice came from behind, and Liu Qingshan was hugged just as he turned around.

  Seeing the shining bald head in front of him, he knew it was Director Guo of the flax factory.

   "Qingshan, thanks to you this time, you are a great contributor to our flax factory!"

  Papapapa, Director Guo slapped Liu Qingshan's back excitedly. Thanks to Liu Qingshan's strong and great guy, if he had a softer body, he would have to slap him and vomit blood.

  Director Guo is so excited, so excited. These days, he often wakes up laughing from his dreams.

   And all of this stems from the young man in front of him. Now that he finally sees something alive, do you think he can't be excited?

   "Qingshan, no matter what, you have to attend the celebration party of our flax factory tonight, and those guys are clamoring to toast you!"

  Director Guo finally stopped filming, but made another suggestion to make Liu Qingshan panic even more.

   "Uncle Guo, I just came out to hide from drinking. I'm still a student now, so I can't drink."

  Liu Qingshan had a bitter face, and finally broke free from the other party's warm embrace.

  Uh… students?

  Factory Director Guo remembered Liu Qingshan's identity, and the smile on his face became even brighter: "Qingshan, our flax factory is going to recruit a group of workers, are you interested?"

   Seeing Liu Qingshan's indifferent expression, he quickly added: "If you come, you will train in the sales department for a year first, and then you will be promoted directly. The position of sales chief has already been prepared for you."

  For an ordinary farm boy, this is definitely a good thing: eating the food supply, and then being a cadre, that is simply a step up to the sky.

  The ancestral graves don’t smoke, so they dare not think so.

However, Liu Qingshan declined politely, which made Factory Director Guo feel very disappointed: "Qingshan, I know you are a college student, and we will not delay your future, but in the future, you must not refuse to make suggestions in the factory. !"

   While speaking, he also took Liu Qingshan's hand.

   And Liu Qingshan felt that there was an extra piece of cardboard in his palm.

  Director Guo patted him on the shoulder again: "In the future, if anyone in your family is willing to work in the linen factory, tell Uncle Guo that we are a family, so don't be polite."

   After finishing speaking, he waved his hand: "Well, I have to go in and continue to accompany me. I guess I have to drink another drink today."

  Although he was complaining in his mouth, the expression on Director Guo's face was rather complacent.

  Speaking of which, Director Guo is also one of the protagonists in this celebration banquet.

  When Director Guo entered the guest house, Liu Qingshan looked at the small square piece of cardboard above his hand, and the corners of his mouth curled up involuntarily.

   "With this ticket, you can receive a Butterfly brand sewing machine."

  The official seal of the No. 1 Department Store is stamped on the bottom, and this kind of bill is obviously collected directly without spending any more money.

  The last time the eldest brother-in-law received the manuscript fee, he clamored to buy a sewing machine for his mother, but he never got a ticket.

  If you really want to fall asleep, someone will give you a pillow. Not only will you have a sewing ticket, but it will also be a free ticket.

   This can be regarded as a little thank you from Director Guo. The price of a sewing machine is higher than that of a Shanghai watch. This gift of thanks is very important at the moment.

   As for sending money, hehe, who has the courage these days?

  Put the sewing ticket in his pocket, and patted it with satisfaction. With this thing, my mother no longer has to light a lamp to boil oil, and work hard to mend their clothes and pants by hand.

   Liu Qingshan was very happy when he saw another person, staggering from side to side, swaying towards him. Looking at the iconic distiller's nose, it was the old Li from the winery who hadn't escaped.

   "Uncle Li, you can't drink too much, you haven't smoked every day?"

  Liu Qingshan greeted with a smile, he knew that the main event was coming.

   If the sewing machine just now was just an appetizer, now is the real feast.

   "Qingshan, help me out first."

  Big Lao Li leaned directly on Liu Qingshan's shoulder, talking in a low voice.

  Although there was a smell of alcohol on his face, but listening to him speak, he didn't go off the rails.

  Liu Qingshan pretended to support him, and the two of them left the guest house together and found a secluded place, only then did Da Lao Li stop.

  At this moment, the other person is no longer shaking, and his eyes are no longer blurred. The way he was just now must be pretending.

   "Qingshan, let me represent the workers in the factory first, thank you!"

  Big Old Li grabbed Liu Qingshan's hands and shook them vigorously a few times, and then the expression on his face became tangled.

   After struggling for a while, he stomped his feet and said apologetically, "Qingshan, Uncle, I'm sorry for you this time!"

  Liu Qingshan just looked at him with a smile, and the elder Li became more and more ashamed: "Qingshan, this time there is too much noise, the money that we promised you originally, the winery has no way to give you cash."

   This point, of course, Liu Qingshan has long been aware of: a bottle of wine is bought for three yuan more, and more than 10,000 bottles of wine are tens of thousands of yuan.

  The amount of transactions at the Canton Fair, of course, must be directly retained by the above foreign exchange, and then converted into RMB, and then returned to various places.

   This money has to be paid, not even a penny. If the winery really wants to give Liu Qingshan tens of thousands of dollars, I'm afraid it will cause an uproar immediately.

  As for the agreement initialed by the two parties, that thing is actually almost like waste paper now.

After Da Lao Li finished vomit, he looked around for a while, and then he leaned into Liu Qingshan's ear and said: "I, Da Lao Li, am not someone who crosses rivers and demolishes bridges, Qingshan, you showed us a way to make money, we If you don’t know how to express your gratitude, are you still a human being?”

   After finishing speaking, Big Old Li looked around again, and his voice was lowered: "Uncle, tell you, there is still a small treasury worth two thousand yuan in our factory, and it's all yours!"

  Factories at this time usually have their own small treasury. If the big boss Li can do this, he really doesn’t treat Liu Qingshan as an outsider, and he is sincerely grateful.

   "Qingshan, I have to go back to accompany the wine. Today I have to drink them all down. You'd better go to our winery at night and take care of that."

   After finishing speaking, Da Lao Li patted Liu Qingshan on the shoulder, and then returned to the guest house. As soon as he entered the gate, he staggered back and forth and began to sway up.

  Liu Qingshan is not a greedy person. If he can earn 2,000 yuan this trip, he has already overfulfilled the task. What's more, he also got a sewing machine.

  By the way, there is also a camera, this should be one of the gains.

   These are all things that can be seen and touched. There are also contacts, which also need to be continuously accumulated.

  In fact, he gained more than that. In the afternoon, intermittently, Liu Qingshan received a lot of thank you gifts.

  One box of milk powder is sent by the dairy factory, one box of soft white sugar is sent by the sugar factory, two boxes of clear water Daqu and two boxes of medicinal wine are used by Da Lao Li to deceive people...

  In addition, there are two hundred yuan rewarded by the county, and the most important spiritual reward:

   Model worker!

  Although the Model Worker Commendation and Award Conference will be held at the end of the year, Liu Qingshan has already reserved a spot in advance.

  There are a lot of things, Liu Qingshan can't take them back by himself. Although the bicycle is still parked in the guest house, it can't carry it. Just a sewing machine can't be brought back by bicycle.

   There was no other way, Liu Qingshan could only ask Da Lao Li for help, and went to the transportation company to temporarily transfer two Great Liberation vehicles.

  Of course, not only to get his private goods, but also to transport two truckloads of distiller's grains back.

  Big Lao Li patted his chest and promised: enough distiller's lees in the future!

  The next morning, Liu Qingshan sat in the cab of the Great Liberation with a lot of harvest.

   It was the old master Li Zhong who was driving, and his son Li Guoxin was driving the car behind. Zhang Zhaodi and Zhang Liandi were also sitting in the car.

   These two girls have been out for a while, and they happened to drop by to go home to have a look.

   There is also Zhang Dalu, the grandson of the old party secretary. Although Xiaodanzi is wild and doesn't miss home very much, he was also dragged into the car by Zhang Liandi.

  First went to the winery to load the distiller's grains, then went to the guest house, loaded Liu Qingshan's things into the car, and finally went to Baibai to carry the sewing machine into the car.

  Seeing the brand-new sewing machine, Zhaodi and the sisters also stared at each other.

  In the countryside these days, three turns and one sound is definitely the dream of every young man. When they get married, if they can have a full set, they must be from a very wealthy family.

  As for the TVs and refrigerators that have just become popular in the past two years, I dare not even think about it.

  You know, now the entire Qingshan Commune only has a 12-inch black and white small TV, which is locked in a big iron shelf at the commune’s cultural station all day long, like a safe.

  Only when important meetings are held above, commune cadres and masses will be organized to watch.

   "Zhaodi, when we get married, I will also buy you a sewing machine."

   Li Guoxin leaned in front of Zhang Zhaodi and whispered, but Liu Qingshan still heard it.

   "Whoever cares about your sewing machine will marry you!"

  Zhang Zhaodi flicked her big braids and got into the cab first, her face flushed.

  Liu Qingshan was delighted to see it: This is a match, the boss uncle is very good, he is planning a strategy.
