Era: I have a two-world door

Chapter 328, Why?
Wang Qingsong was looking at the shopping list that Li Yingying had given him earlier, thinking about taking Xiaomai out to play tomorrow.

Then he whispered to Li Yingying, "Sister Li, who is on duty this week?"

"Oh, this week it's Sun Liang and Chen Kai from the sales team. What's up?"

"Oh, it's okay. I have something to do tomorrow, so I asked."

"It's okay, just go about your business. If I were on duty, I would have told you."

Seeing this, Wang Qingsong lowered his head to register the purchase lists sent by other departments.

Looking at the cement on the list, I thought about it and found the cement factory number from Li Yingying's registered business directory!

I walked to the phone by the wall, picked up the phone and started to make a call: "Hello, put me through to ** Cement Factory, yes, number ******"

After waiting for a while, the call was connected.

"Hello, is this the cement factory? We are from the Red Star Parts Factory. I would like to ask about 400# cement and 420# hollow-core floor slabs..."

After chatting for a while, he hung up the phone.

After returning, he said to Li Yingying, "Sister Li, I'll go see if Master Yao's car is empty. If it is, we can go to the cement factory and bring back the cement and hollow floor slabs."

"Oh, do you want me to follow you?"

"No, I'll try it alone!"

I bought a lot of things in the future. You don’t need to bargain when buying things here, as the prices are unified across the country.

Don't worry about quality issues.

As long as the procedures are correct, there won't be any major problems.

In his opinion, it is actually much simpler.

"Okay, go ahead! Call me if you have anything."

"okay!"

Wang Qingsong agreed and said to Zhang Yuan: "Brother Yuan, I'm going to the cement factory..."

Zhang Yuan just heard it and nodded in agreement.

After coming out, I came to the locomotive class.

The car was parked there and no one was seen.

Just as I was about to speak, I heard movement under the car and a pair of feet appeared outside.

"Master Yao?"

He called out tentatively.

"Ah? Who is it!"

"Oh, I'm Wang Qingsong from the Supply and Marketing Department."

"Oh, Xiao Wang! What's wrong? Is there something you want to talk to me about? Wait a minute, I'll tighten the screws and come out."

"Okay, you're busy. I just want to ask if you have time today? Let's go to the cement factory together and bring back some goods."

"Just wait a moment."

Seeing this, Wang Qingsong agreed and waited there quietly.

A few minutes later, the other person slowly crawled up from the bottom.

Looking at Master Yao who was covered in oil, he handed him a cigarette and said, "Master Yao, do you have any plans at the factory today? Can we go to the cement factory?"

"No arrangements. Go talk to the dispatcher at the personnel department. If they don't have any arrangements, we'll leave."

"Oh, okay! Then I'll go over and ask first!"

"Well, go ahead, I'll wash first."

Wang Qingsong said hello and went to the Personnel Department.

There was no dispatch today, so he was given a note and returned to the locomotive team with it.

"Master Yao, the ticket has been issued. Do you know the place?"

Master Yao had almost finished washing, but the oil on his hands was difficult to clean all at once, especially between his nails.

He took the note, read it and said with a smile: "I know him. I've been there many times. When our factory was being built, we first visited their factory. Okay, get in the car."

After saying hello, he went inside, said a few words to someone inside and came back.

Wang Qingsong got into the passenger seat of the car.

The car slowly drove out of the factory.

……

After leaving the factory, we drove along the road around the Imperial City Wall towards Fuxingmen. There weren't many cars on the road at the moment, so we were able to speed up.

Walking on the road, the two started chatting there.

During the conversation, he also learned about Master Yao's situation.

Like Section Chief Yang, he was transferred from the army and was already in his thirties at that time.

Under the leadership of the street office, he found a wife from the city.

All in all, the oldest child is only about 12 years old.

There are three children in the family, two daughters and the second oldest is a boy.

Master Yao’s salary is still quite high.

Because there are only five levels of drivers, the lowest salary is 48 yuan per person per month, which does not include various subsidies for traveling.

Because drivers' salaries are so high, they are divided into ten grades.

Each level is followed by a sub-level.

The lowest level is naturally deputy level 5.

Once you have been an intern for more than a year, you can get 48 yuan a month.

Lao Yao is now a level 58 driver, earning 1 yuan a month. Above that are level 2 and . Just like administrative levels, the lower the level, the higher the salary.

Wang Qingsong looked at the other person's heartfelt smile and felt that he was very satisfied with his current life.

It’s not because of how high the salary is.

The salary of each person in the Yao family is quite high.

However, he was the only one who had to pay for the expenses of a family of five, and during the difficult three years, his savings had been almost used up.

However, Lao Yao's words just now can be used to describe the difficulties this time: "What's the big deal? You guys, you have to believe in the country, it will all pass. When we were fighting the devils and the bald guys in the past, we might not even be able to eat millet during the Chinese New Year in our hometown.

What about now? No matter how difficult the situation is, you can still eat a few kilograms of white steamed buns every month. I never dared to think about this before. "

After listening to this, Wang Qingsong was thinking about it.

It seems that during the war before liberation, it was common for people to starve to death.

"Master Yao, there aren't many people on this road. Please teach me how to drive the car!"

Wang Qingsong handed over a cigarette.

Hearing this, Master Yao hesitated for a moment, but still agreed.

"Okay, I'll take you to the front and give it a try."

After agreeing, the car drove along a less bumpy stretch and then stopped.

The two changed positions.

However, Master Yao took out a stick more than one meter long from the back, with a round wooden head on it.

Wang Qingsong looked at the things curiously: "Master Yao, what is this for?"

"Oh, this is for my apprentice to use when he practices driving. If something goes wrong later, I'll steer the wheel. If I ask you to, just move your legs and I'll use this to brake."

As he spoke, he gestured.

Wang Qingsong understood instantly.

Later generations of training cars have brakes on the passenger side, so if something goes wrong, the passenger can just step on the brakes.

But not now.

This is the only stupid way.

After understanding it, he agreed.

Take the key and start the car as Lao Yao said.

There is no need to act like a novice when it comes to lighting a fire, it is too easy.

But he still pretended to hold the key tightly, and only let go after Lao Yao said something.

"Once the key is in the ignition, it will loosen up. You'll know by the sound. It won't be the clicking sound like before, but a steady buzzing sound."

Wang Qingsong pretended to nod.

"Come on, step on the gas gently and release the clutch slowly, oh right......"

Old Yao was talking there.

"Gudong"

The car stalled.

Lao Yao said distressedly: "Try it again. It's very simple. My apprentice will be able to do it in one try."

Wang Qingsong restarted it after seeing this.

This time it started normally.

"Oh, yes, step on the gas... change gears... change gears when you hear the booming sound... keep your eyes forward! The gear position!"

Old Yao was muttering there.

Wang Qingsong tried his best to repeat the mistakes he made when he was learning to drive.

Finally, we can get on the road safely.

In fact, it is not that troublesome to get on the road.

Just get the direction right.

It was only more than 20 kilometers, and if the road was not easy to walk on, it would take about 40 minutes.

It took more than an hour to finally arrive safely.

When the car arrived, the two of them changed seats.

It would be troublesome if you had a car crash in someone else's factory.

Wang Qingsong took the certificate to the guard room. After being let in, he followed the car to the office inside.

The producing area is very large.

At this time, there were quite a few trucks and carts pulling cement there.

There are also special rack carts.

This type is made of welded iron, and the wheels are smaller car wheels. It is specially used for loading and unloading heavy objects. There are not many of them in the city.

They are usually concentrated at train stations, loading and unloading heavy objects.

Old Yao had been here before and was quite familiar with the place, so he took him to the sales office.

After explaining the purpose of the visit, he was received.

For this kind of unit with which we have long-term contact, and which is located in this city, we do not need to settle the bill now and can keep it on account, but not for too long.

Half a month at most.

After signing the contract, I was taken to the warehouse to arrange for pickup.

The entire factory area was surrounded by dust. The machines in the gravel plant not far away were roaring, and there was even more dust on the warehouse side.

"Bah~"

Wang Qingsong spitted out a mouthful of saliva not far away.

The city of Sijiu is usually windy and dusty, and even then we are not used to the conditions in this factory area.

The workers carrying cement were covered with a layer of gray cement from their hair to their clothes. They were bare-chested and wearing masks that were also dyed gray by the cement dust.

It takes a lot of cement to build a building.

Theoretically, this vehicle weighs two tons, so it should have no problem pulling four tons.

But this won’t finish it.

A total of four trips are required, and the others will be transported by other units.

Waiting for people to load the car.

The two were chatting nearby.

After the tank was full, he signed and drove away from the cement factory.

"Oh my god, my nose feels like it's full of dust!"

After coming out, Wang Qingsong blew his nose and complained. On the way back, there were goods loaded, so naturally he would not be allowed to drive.

Old Yao smiled indifferently.

"Will you come over this afternoon?"

After the contract is finalized, he basically doesn't need to come over anymore. We can just let the financial accountant come over to pay the money.

Wang Qingsong thought about it, and finally shook his head: "Forget it, I won't come. I have something else to do in the afternoon."

I have to go and register Xiaomai’s household registration in the afternoon.

You have to go to the police station and the street office.

Old Yao naturally doesn't care.

Drove to the construction site.

At this time, the people at the construction site were eating under the shed!

As the car approached, someone came over with a lunch box.

"Hey, Master Yao, who is that? Here to deliver something!"

Lao Yao smiled and replied, "Yes, I am here to send you cement because I am afraid you are out of stock."

As he spoke, he got out of the car.

Seeing this, the other party smiled and said, "Hey! Don't worry, you can still use the half moon!"

When the two came down, Lao Yao introduced them: "This is Lin Tao, the secretary from our labor union, and this is Wang Qingsong, the secretary from the supply and marketing department."

Lin Tao looked at Wang Qingsong carefully.

Then he suddenly realized, "Oh, you are the Wang from the Supply and Marketing Department! The one who handles the suitcases, cans, and eggs?"

Wang Qingsong smiled and said, "Yeah, yeah! Hello! Have a cigarette."

He handed the other person a cigarette.

There are only three people in the union, a union chairman and two secretaries.

This is one of them.

"Hey, hello, hello, look at what I did, thank you!"

Lin Tao took the cigarette with a smile.

Lao Yao looked at the messy construction site and said with a smile: "You guys eat first, and then unload the things. We have to go back to eat!"

There is a fixed amount of food.

Don't underestimate it as a construction site.

Also divided by quantity.

Seeing this, Lin Tao said with a smile: "Hey, okay, wait a moment!"

Then he turned around and called out to the crowd, "Hey, those who have finished their meal, come over and unload the goods."

Hearing this, several people walked out of the crowd.

Start unloading.

Wang Qingsong looked around and said with a smile, "Isn't there anyone from other units in charge of this?"

"Oh, yes! Our factory has the most people, so we are usually in charge. They only come over occasionally to check on the progress."

Lin Tao said with a smile.

Wang Qingsong nodded when he heard this, looked at the lunch box in his hand and said with a smile: "Secretary Lin, don't worry about us. I am the first one here, and the food will get cold if I don't eat it."

"Okay, then you guys go get busy. I'm going to eat. Come to me if you need anything."

After Lin Tao finished speaking, he left with a smile.

After everyone left, Wang Qingsong looked at the houses around him and asked, "Master Yao, where is the house that our unit was allocated before? Is it the one over there?"

He pointed to a four-story red brick building not far away and asked.

Master Yao took a look and said, "Yes, that's the building. It's been built for several years. Come in and have a seat."

Hearing this, Wang Qingsong was stunned for a moment: "Your home is here?"

Then I reacted.

With Master Yao's experience in the city, he will definitely be able to get one.

"Yes! It was divided a few years ago. Section Chief Yang's home is also here."

After hearing this, Wang Qingsong thought for a while and nodded.

"Okay, let's go and take a look."

Then the two of them walked over there.

When he was almost there, Wang Qingsong used the excuse of buying a pack of cigarettes to go buy some things and then quickly came back.

"Hey, look at what you've done. I asked you to come to my house and sit down, but why are you going out to buy things?"

Look at the bag of candy and the bag of brown sugar in his hands.

He felt a little embarrassed about it.

Now there are high-priced goods for sale.

But the price is too high.

There isn't much of either, about half a pound each, but together they probably cost about three or four dollars.

"It's okay, let's go."

He took the lead and walked into the building.

Seeing this, Old Yao had no choice but to follow him in.

Although this building was built only a few years ago, it is very messy inside, with all kinds of debris piled in the aisles.

And there are some twists and turns inside.

"Master Yao, it's time to get off work!"

"Oh, no, I was delivering cement to the construction site and came back to take a look."

From time to time, he would meet people saying hello on the road, and Master Yao would respond to them one by one.

I followed the person to the place and knocked on the door.

The person who opened the door was a middle-aged woman in her thirties.

"Why are you back?"

Seeing him, the other party also greeted him with a smile.

"Oh, I'm delivering something to the construction site. I'm bringing my colleagues from the factory over to have a look! Let's make some tea!"

"Oh, Hello!"

The other party greeted Wang Qingsong.

Wang Qingsong smiled and nodded: "Hello, auntie!"

"Okay, come in!"

Old Yao greeted him with a smile and took him into the house.

The three of them entered the room.

The living room and bedroom are right at the entrance.

The area is half larger than my own house, about 20 square meters, and it is a one-way house.

There was a bunk bed near the window, covered by a curtain.

Opposite the bunk beds is a large, clean bed.

There isn't much space left.

"sit down!"

Old Yao held a bench and motioned for him to sit down.

Wang Qingsong put his things down and sat on the long bench.

The space is limited, so we naturally cannot put in a too large round table.

The place is quite big.

However, having had experiences in later life, he felt that this house was just like that!
Moreover, cooking and going to the toilet are all in other places, sharing a kitchen and toilet, and even washing clothes is done in the same washroom.

"How about it?"

Old Yao said with a smile.

Wang Qingsong nodded: "Not bad, it's much better than our house."

If compared with the houses in the current urban area, this would be considered a very good house.

"Where does Section Chief Yang live?"

"Oh, the one next to it. Do you want to go take a look?"

"Forget it, he's not home, maybe next time!"

Lao Yao's wife put the cup of water there and asked, "Have you eaten yet? The meal is ready. The children will be back from school soon. Let's eat together."

Wang Qingsong shook his head when he saw this: "Forget it, I have to go back after unloading the goods."

Declined to eat here.

Lao Yao was not happy and said quickly, "Let's eat here."

He just came to visit my house and brought so many things with him that he felt a little embarrassed.

"Master Yao, you're welcome. I'll leave now if you're like this!"

Seeing this, Old Yao finally agreed reluctantly.

The two sat there for a while and chatted.

Wang Qingsong said goodbye.

And Lao Yao also left.

He usually eats lunch at the factory, but today his family didn't prepare lunch for him, so naturally he went out with them.

After coming out, I took a walk here.

The two returned to the construction site.

After the goods were unloaded, the truck drove to the factory.

Wang Qingsong didn't go in.

I got out of the car and said goodbye to the other party.

He still has to go through the formalities!

Then I found a place to eat something and went to handle the procedures for Xiaomai.

I was busy for the whole afternoon, registering at the street office, police station, and neighborhood committee.

For him, this is considered to have completed the household registration transfer.

What remains is the coordination between the police station and the municipal bureau, which is none of his business.

Now that things were settled, he felt much more relaxed.

Take the completed documents back to the factory and hand the information over to the personnel department.

Seeing that there was still more than an hour before the end of get off work, I returned to the department.

However, when I just came back, I noticed that the atmosphere in the office seemed a little wrong.

very quiet.

Wang Qingsong walked over curiously, but when he saw this situation he didn't say hello.

Xiaoxin came to Li Yingying and asked in a low voice: "What's wrong? Why is it so quiet?"

Li Yingying whispered, "Remember the machine we fixed last time? We didn't ask an expert to fix it, we fixed it ourselves."

"I remember! What's wrong?"

That was his idea, how could he forget it?

"The expert from Kadier said we violated the spirit of the contract and asked us to apologize and promise not to repair the machine on our own in the future. The section chief is furious!"

These words made Wang Qingsong frown.

East Germany.

In other words, in what is now called the Soviet-occupied area, it is self-evident who is in charge there.

After the Russians withdrew their personnel and technology, they treated them as a soft persimmon.

Why can't you fix things yourself?
