Chapter 76 The Problem of Studying Abroad
After telling Liu Yanping where he is, Feng Xiaochen and Feng Fei went out for dinner.
There is a restaurant next to the guesthouse, and the grade is quite careless. When the uncle and nephew entered the door, Feng Fei asked Feng Xiaochen to find a place to sit down first, and went to the counter to queue up to order food. After a while, Feng Fei came back with the receipt for ordering and brought tableware. It took some time to cook the dishes. When the dishes were fried, the waiter naturally called out, and Feng Fei then used the documents to pick up the dishes. Even Feng Xiaochen was already familiar with this procedure.
"Xiaochen, what did your director say just now?" Feng Fei sat down and asked Feng Xiaochen curiously. He mainly wanted to know how many meat products the person Feng Xiaochen asked could help him buy. Fortunately, he was thinking about how to allocate it to his neighbors and colleagues in the department.
Feng Xiaochen spread his hands and said, "I don't know either. She said she would do her best to ask the manager of a non-staple food company to give me all the maneuvering indicators in her hand. I'm afraid she would have thirty or fifty pounds?"
"Just dream!" Feng Fei scolded, and he spoke casually to his nephew. After scolding him, he said: "We only have a pound of meat tickets per month in the factory. This is the local area to take care of our third-tier enterprises. If it is a local enterprise, only eight taels per person. You want thirty or fifty kilograms per mouth. Do you think this is sweet potato!"
Feng Xiaochen actually didn't know how much energy Liu Yanping had and what energy she was willing to exert. He smiled and said, "Don't worry about it for now, it won't be too little. Our director owes me a great favor. I rarely ask her for a second."
"You are young and just coming to the capital again, how can you make your office director owe you the favor?" Feng Fei asked.
Feng Xiaochen made a few random words, saying that when he was in Germany, he used his expertise in German and helped Liu Yanping some personal help. He put the story of helping Hao Yawei buy a camera on Liu Yanping's head, and he said it with a nose and eyes, which made Feng Fei believe it. Feng Fei is a skilled person and is not familiar with the worldly style. Sometimes he will reflect on himself for this. Seeing that his nephew is so good at having relationships, he is very happy. Of course, he can't help but remind him not to do evil deeds or violate principles.
All the three dishes ordered by Feng Fei were fried. Feng Xiaochen took the list and put them in a shape of a styling on the table. Feng Fei's love for Feng Xiaochen comes from the heart. He didn't think about saving money when ordering the dishes. He ordered two very "hard" meat dishes and a vegetarian dish. The so-called "hard" is a common saying, which is a more solid meat dish. When Feng Xiaochen was serving the dishes, he placed both meat dishes on Feng Fei's side. Seeing this, Feng Fei immediately moved the plate again, moved the meat dishes to Feng Xiaochen, and only one vegetarian dish was placed in front of him.
"Xiaochen, you are growing up, so you need to eat more meat. This restaurant is good, and you don't need to buy meat and vegetables, just a little more expensive." Feng Fei said.
Feng Xiaochen did not be polite to Feng Fei. He had just given Feng Fei 10,000 marks for Yan Leqin, which made Feng Fei become a household in ten thousand in a blink of an eye. At this time, he spent less than 10 yuan to order three dishes, which was "spraying water" in Cantonese. He greeted Feng Fei, then picked up the chopsticks and started eating. Feng Fei looked at Feng Xiaochen's indecent eating style and felt very happy.
"Uncle Second, you eat meat too!" Feng Xiaochen saw that Feng Fei's chopsticks were only moving on the plate of vegetarian dishes, so he took a large amount of chopsticks and shredded meat for him and put them in Feng Fei's bowl.
Feng Fei smiled and said, "Just eat it yourself. I am an adult, and I still need you to help me carry the food?"
Feng Xiaochen also smiled and said, "Uncle Second, I am an adult now. You should enjoy some blessings in the future. Ling Yu, Lin Tao and others should take on the burden."
Feng Fei pretended to scold: "It's still early for you! In the eyes of your father and me, you are just a group of children."
Feng Xiaochen was too lazy to fight this issue anymore. In fact, what he said to Feng Fei had other meanings. He had skills and advanced vision. It was easy to make some money as long as he took time. In the future, he hoped that he could get more benefits for his parents and uncles and aunts. Even if he was the third uncle and third aunt far away in Germany, although it seemed that they were the richest in the entire big family at present, Feng Xiaochen believed that he would soon be richer than them and could in turn fund them.
However, these words cannot be said now. Feng Xiaochen simply changed the topic and asked: "Uncle Second, your unit is so hard, have you never thought about getting it out?"
Feng Fei hesitated for a moment and said, "This is really hard to say. Sometimes I have thought about it, but it is not appropriate for me to call it out alone. Everyone responded to the call back then. I gave up halfway by myself, so what is it?"
"What if there is a chance to get you out of there?" Feng Xiaochen deliberately embarrassed Feng Fei.
Feng Fei said: "It depends on what opportunity it is. If it is an organizational need, there is nothing to say. Just obey the arrangements. But if it is a speculative approach, it would be too inappropriate to transfer it out. At least I wouldn't do this."
"So, is anyone doing this?" Feng Xiaochen asked.
Feng Fei nodded and said, "Of course there are. The policies have been loose in recent years. Some people have been looking for various relationships to transfer. Some have been transferred back to the east, and some have remained in Qingdong Province, but have been transferred to the provincial capital or region. Everyone looked down on these people and discussed them privately, thinking that they are just deserters."
"So that's how it is." Feng Xiaochen understood a little. Feng Fei's psychology is also very strange. He clearly knew that the living conditions in the mountains were poor, and if he was transferred, he could improve his life. But he was unwilling to be transferred as a deserter. This was a sense of collective honor that had been formed over the years.
"Uncle II, when I was in Germany this time, my third uncle talked to me and said that he wanted your family and my parents to immigrate to Germany. What do you think about this?" Feng Xiaochen asked.
"Immigration?" Feng Fei's eyes stood up, "This third brother is just nonsense. Is it that easy to immigrate?"
Feng Xiaochen was speechless when he heard Feng Fei behaved so righteously as the second brother. After all, Feng Hua was also an executive of a big bank, so why did he become the "third brother" in Feng Fei's mouth? He didn't want to get involved in the affairs between adults, but just smiled and said, "Second Uncle, don't change the topic. I'm asking you, if Uncle Third can do this, would you be willing to immigrate?"
"I don't want to!" Feng Fei said firmly.
"Why?" Feng Xiaochen asked.
"What's good about Germany!" Feng Fei said angrily.
Feng Xiaochen was happy: "Uncle Second, you are too domineering in your words. Germany is a developed country after all, and Uncle Third lives in villas. The big color TV is more than 30 inches long. Isn't it better than China?"
"No matter how strong it is, it is a foreign country." Feng Fei said, staring at Feng Xiaochen again and said, "Xiaochen, I have to talk to you about this matter. Don't be optimistic about foreign countries and fawn on foreign countries. No matter how good the living conditions of other countries are, they are not their own motherland. Think about it, how did your grandfather come back then? If we want to enjoy and go abroad, then who will build our country?"
"Uncle Second, you are not sincere, are you?" Feng Xiaochen asked.
"Boy!" Feng Fei was really annoyed. He stared at him and said, "You'll talk nonsense anymore. Do you believe it or not, I'll beat you for your father?"
Feng Xiaochen then laughed and said repeatedly: "Second uncle, I am having fun with you. You have a high awareness. Your nephew has been educated by the Party for many years and has a high awareness. I told you that as soon as I saw my grandmother and the third uncle, they would arrange to do it for me to study abroad. Second uncle, don't be angry, they also said they would do it for Ling Yu and Lin Tao. I refused at that time, and what I said was the same as what you said just now."
"You said your third uncle was going to run for you to study abroad, but you refused?" Feng Fei asked seriously.
Feng Xiaochen nodded and said, "Yes, I refuse."
"Why?" Feng Fei asked again.
Feng Xiaochen said: "I am not in a hurry to study in Germany now, I still have a lot to do."
Feng Fei said: "I think that if you have the opportunity, it is good to go out and study. You can learn the skills and come back. You are still young now and have many opportunities to do things. You shouldn't reject your third uncle's kindness."
Feng Xiaochen waved his hand and said, "No, the opportunity now is very important to me, but studying abroad is not urgent. Second Uncle, following your opinion, are you supporting Lin Tao to study in Germany?"
"If he has the ability to go, of course I support it." Feng Fei said, "However, the teaching quality of our children's schools in our factory is very poor. Lin Tao's grades can't even get into a technical secondary school, let alone studying abroad. Also, studying abroad costs a lot of money..."
Speaking of the last sentence, his voice became weaker. He had always believed that studying abroad requires a lot of money, but it seems to be no longer valid now. Yan Leqin gave him 10,000 marks, and if Feng Lintao wanted to study in Germany, Yan Leqin and Feng Hua would probably also provide funding, so he didn't have to worry about the cost. Thinking of this, he suddenly had some expectations in his heart: Maybe he could really send his children to Germany for gilding!
"In terms of grades, I don't think it's a big problem. When my third uncle told me, he also mentioned that he could go to Germany for another year or two to study tutoring schools, both learning German and basic courses. I refused to study in Germany myself, but I have no right to make the decision on the arrangements between Lin Tao and Ling Yu. Second uncle, think about it, and go back and discuss it with Third uncle." Feng Xiaochen said.
