Siheyuan: Start with a Truck Driver

Chapter 1189 Xu Damao helps Sha Zhu, the printer

At this time in the courtyard, Jia Zhang had already moved a small stool and sat at the door.

She held the starched sole as she had done before.

I kept my eyes on the direction of the courtyard gate, hoping that Sha Zhu would come back soon.

Occasionally, neighbors would pass by and greet her, but she would just respond perfunctorily, her mind completely focused on the matter of Sha Zhu bringing in leftovers.

After waiting for a long time, I finally saw Sha Zhu appear at the gate of the courtyard.

Jia Zhang's eyes suddenly lit up, and she quickly stood up from the stool and walked towards Sha Zhu.

"Silly Zhu, you are finally back. I have been waiting anxiously for you.

How was your work today? Did you bring back any leftovers? "

As she spoke, Jia Zhang kept looking at Sha Zhu's hands and body, but after looking for a long time, she didn't see anything to hold leftovers.

My heart couldn't help but "skip", and my face, which was originally full of expectation, gradually became gloomy.

Sha Zhu looked at Jia Zhang's anxious look.

With an awkward and helpless smile on his face, he scratched his head and said, "Jia Zhang, don't worry, listen to me, this restaurant has a rule that does not allow you to bring leftovers, and I can't do anything about it."

When Jia Zhang heard this, she jumped up and started to curse: "Shazhu, you are such a heartless person!

Who are you trying to fool? It's been an unspoken rule for many years that the cooks bring leftovers, but it's not allowed in your case?

I think you just want to make life difficult for me, an old woman, and you are making excuses on purpose!

Do you think our family is easy to bully, so you bully us like this?"

Sha Zhu hurriedly explained: "Jia Zhang, I really didn't lie to you. The boss was very fierce. He found out that I took the leftovers and almost fired me.

I am doing this to keep my job. Otherwise, how can I support myself and help others? "

But Jia Zhang didn't listen to his explanation at all. She put her hands on her hips and yelled in the yard like a shrew: "Humph, stop talking nonsense here!

I don't believe it. Can I fire you for bringing some leftovers?

You just don't want to give it to you. Do you think our Jia family owes you something?

When I ask you to help me with something, you always refuse to do it. Are you still a man?

You are pushing us into a dead end!"

Jia Zhang cursed more and more vigorously, with spit flying everywhere. The neighbors heard the noise and gathered around.

Seeing more people around, Jia Zhang became even more excited. She sat down on the ground and started to make a scene: "Everyone, come and judge for yourself! This idiot Zhu looks like a decent person, but he has such a dark heart!

I am so old now, I just rely on him to bring back some leftovers to fill my stomach.

He said that restaurants don’t allow bringing food, isn’t that just bullshit! He just wants to starve an old woman like me to death, wuwuwu…”

Sha Zhu stood there, angry and embarrassed, his face flushed red. He really couldn't do anything about this rogue Jia Zhang.

Just at this moment, Xu Damao came back from the factory humming a little tune and walking briskly.

He was the center of attention in the factory today and received praise from Wang Weidong. He felt so happy that he felt like he was walking with the wind.

As soon as I entered the courtyard, I saw Jia Zhang sitting on the ground, cursing at Sha Zhu. It was a very lively scene.

Xu Damao and Sha Zhu have never gotten along, and the hatred between them is very deep.

When he saw this scene, he secretly laughed in his heart, thinking that Sha Zhu had offended someone again and deserved to be scolded.

I didn’t care and turned around and walked towards my house.

Qin Jingru heard the commotion in the yard from her room. She was curious and went out to take a look. She saw that it was Jia Zhang who was scolding Sha Zhu.

But Xu Damao just stood by and watched

He quickly stepped forward and said, "Da Mao, go and take care of it. It's such a mess. What kind of nonsense is this?"

Xu Damao said nonchalantly: "Why should I care about this? Shazhu is a guy who likes to show off.

He is being scolded now, that is his own fault, I just like to see him get humiliated."

Qin Jingru heard this and said anxiously: "Da Mao, don't forget that you are now the head of the compound.

If something happens in this hospital and you don't care, and it gets to Wang Weidong, you will definitely be scolded, and that won't be good for you."

When Xu Damao heard this, his smug smile froze on his face, and his heart skipped a beat.

Yes, how could I have forgotten this.

He didn't want to offend Wang Weidong because of this matter, otherwise the good image he had worked so hard to build in the factory would be ruined.

Thinking of this, Xu Damao felt a pang of fear in his heart and quickly turned around and walked towards Jia Zhang and Sha Zhu.

Xu Damao hurriedly walked up to Jia Zhang, the smile on his face had long disappeared, replaced by a serious look.

He cleared his throat, raised his voice, and angrily shouted at Jia Zhang: "Jia Zhang, you are going too far!

You are greedy, lazy and gluttonous all day long. You are throwing a tantrum here just for some leftovers. What a person!

You have corrupted the atmosphere in this compound!"

Jia Zhang was cursing at first, but was stunned by Xu Damao's sudden scolding.

She widened her eyes and stared at Xu Damao, her face full of disbelief.

In her impression, Xu Damao and Sha Zhu are mortal enemies.

Logically speaking, Xu Damao should have just stood aside and watched the joke. I never expected him to stand up and speak for Sha Zhu.

And he scolded himself so badly.

Jia Zhang opened her mouth and wanted to refute something, but she was speechless and didn't know what to say.

Her lips were trembling slightly, and her face turned blue and white, and she looked so miserable.

After a long while, she came to her senses, pointed at Xu Damao, and stammered, "Xu Damao, you... why are you helping Sha Zhu?

Did you collude with him to bully an old woman like me?"

Xu Damao snorted coldly and said, "Jia Zhang, please stop making trouble here.

I am maintaining order in the compound. If your behavior gets out, how will others view our compound?

Don't you think about it, is it worth it just for such a small thing?"

When the neighbors heard Xu Damao's words, they all nodded in agreement.

Although everyone knew that Jia Zhang liked to take advantage of others, no one cared about it because she was old.

But today, she did go too far, and everyone was a little dissatisfied. Sha Zhu stood there, watching Jia Zhang being scolded by Xu Damao and speechless. His tense nerves finally relaxed a little and he breathed a sigh of relief.

He knew in his heart that if Xu Damao had not suddenly stepped forward, there was no telling how long this matter would have lasted.

When Jia Zhang saw Xu Damao standing up, she knew that she would not be able to take advantage today. She spat at Sha Zhu in anger and hatred, and the saliva almost splashed on Sha Zhu.

Then, she snorted, and under the gaze of everyone, she turned dejectedly and went back into the house, her back revealing a sense of unwillingness and resentment.

Seeing this, Sha Zhu hurriedly walked up to Xu Damao and said with gratitude, "Da Mao, today is really thanks to you. If it weren't for you, I don't know what to do.

You have helped me a lot, I will remember this favor."

Xu Damao raised the corner of his mouth slightly, with a hint of sarcasm, and said to Sha Zhu: "Sha Zhu, don't be hypocritical with me here.

I'm not doing this for you, I'm doing this for the reputation of the compound, to avoid being laughed at by outsiders.

You, you just stir up trouble all day long, and you don't use your brain. You can't even handle such a small matter, and I have to clean up your mess."

Sha Zhu blushed slightly after being mocked by Xu Damao. He scratched his head awkwardly and said, "Da Mao, anyway, you did help me today. I know that I sometimes do things without thinking. I will change in the future. Please stop mocking me."

Xu Damao snorted disdainfully and said, "Humph, I hope you can really change and stop causing trouble for the compound. I don't have that much free time to help you clean up the mess."

After saying that, he turned around and went back to the house, with a bit of pride in his walking posture.

Nothing made him happier than the praise of his enemies.

In the next few days, the entire courtyard seemed to have returned to its former tranquility.

Although Jia Zhang was still upset about Sha Zhu not being able to bring back the leftovers,

But she also knew that after Xu Damao intervened, it would be useless for her to dwell on the matter.

Every time she saw Sha Zhu, she couldn't help but glare at him fiercely.

His eyes were filled with resentment and unwillingness, but he could only mutter a few words helplessly, not daring to act like a spoiled brat like before.

As for Sha Zhu, he would go out early every day to work in the private kitchen, and devote all his attention to cooking.

The courtyard was quiet.

the other side.

Wang Weidong's minicomputers have now occupied the international minicomputer market and earned a huge amount of foreign exchange.

With this money, the researchers in the Orchid Automobile Factory laboratory were able to devote themselves to research and produced many results.

However, because it had no epoch-making significance, Wang Weidong did not care.

But the seeds planted will always bloom

While Wang Weidong was concentrating on processing various complicated documents in his office step by step

A crisp knock on the door broke the slightly dull atmosphere in the room. "Dong Dong Dong", Fang Mu's familiar knocking sound came, and then he gently opened the door and walked into the office.

Fang Mu's face was filled with excitement. He walked a few steps to Wang Weidong's desk and reported excitedly, "Director Liu, there is big news from the laboratory of our Lanhua Automobile Factory!

Researcher Zhou led the team to develop a new machine after a period of unremitting research. This machine is not simple. It can be perfectly matched with our minicomputer.

The most important thing is that it can accurately print out the text information transmitted from the minicomputer. Isn’t it amazing? "

Wang Weidong was looking down at the document, but when he heard Fang Mu's words, his movements suddenly stopped.

He suddenly raised his head, and a gleam of surprise and realization flashed in his eyes.

In an instant, a flash of lightning seemed to flash through his mind, and he immediately realized that this was the printer that was extremely common and widely used in later generations!

In that familiar future world, printers are everywhere. Whether it is printing various documents in the office or printing photos, learning materials, etc. at home, they are indispensable.

I didn't expect that such an invention would be born in my own laboratory ahead of time.

Wang Weidong couldn't hold back his excitement. He stood up from his seat and said to Fang Mu anxiously, "Quick, take me to the laboratory. I want to see what this precious thing looks like with my own eyes. This is so meaningful!"

As he said this, he strode out the door.

Wang Weidong and Fang Mu hurried to the laboratory, where they saw various instruments and equipment arranged in an orderly manner and various pipelines crisscrossing.

Researcher Zhou was standing in front of a machine with a slightly strange shape, concentrating on it, holding some tools in his hands, and seemed to be making the final adjustments.

Hearing the footsteps, Researcher Zhou looked up and saw Wang Weidong. He immediately put down what he was holding and stood up respectfully. With a hint of nervousness and expectation on his face, he said, "Director Liu, you are here."

Wang Weidong smiled and nodded, his eyes falling on Researcher Zhou.

He knew the young man's past very well. He was once an unknown researcher, earning a meager salary of more than 30 yuan a month, and struggling on the road of scientific research. Although he had great ambitions, he was limited by resources and platforms. It was his own vision that transferred him to the Lanhua Automobile Factory Laboratory, a place full of infinite possibilities.

Now, here, not only has his salary increased to more than 100 yuan per month, but he has also been allocated a house. His life has undergone earth-shaking changes.

Wang Weidong stepped forward, patted Researcher Zhou on the shoulder, and said, "Xiao Zhou, good job! I heard that you developed this amazing machine. This is all thanks to you."

Researcher Zhou blushed slightly, and said a little embarrassedly: "Director Wang, if you hadn't given me this opportunity, I wouldn't be where I am today.

I have always wanted to repay you, and I have worked very hard in the laboratory, hoping to achieve some results and live up to your expectations. The successful development of this printer is also thanks to the concerted efforts of everyone in the team. "

Wang Weidong looked around at the other researchers in the lab and said, "Thank you for your hard work. The emergence of this printer may bring us unexpected changes.

Xiao Zhou, please tell me in detail the principle and function of this machine. "

Researcher Zhou immediately became excited and began to introduce Wang Weidong in detail.

His eyes were full of pride and passion for his research results. He explained every detail thoroughly, from the structure of the core components of the machine to the precise conversion process between data transmission and text printing.

However, after Researcher Zhou finished speaking, Wang Weidong frowned slightly.

After thinking for a moment, he suddenly said, "Xiao Zhou, your printer is indeed a very novel invention in theory, but at present, it is not very practical."
