When Wang Lin heard that Tian Xiaoqing said that he was going to Xiangjiang on New Year's Day, he couldn't help but was startled: "Are you planning to go on New Year's Day?"

Tian Xiaoqing said: "Because I went as a tourist, I met that person by chance, so as not to arouse the other person's suspicion. It is most appropriate to travel on New Year's Day."

Wang Lin smiled and said: "What a coincidence, I am also going to Xiangjiang on New Year's Day. I was invited by Xiangjiang Dahua Company to go there for inspection."

"Really? Then can't we go together?" Tian Xiaoqing smiled, then thought about it, shook his head, and said, "No, we can't go together. If I'm in danger, I might bring it to you.

How many of you are going?"

"For the time being, we are two people."

"Let's talk about it when we get to Xiangjiang, or maybe we have a chance to meet?"

"The people from Dahua Company have already booked a hotel for me at the Kowloon Hotel in Tsim Sha Tsui. My room is Room 608. Just come to this hotel to find me."

"Oh, okay."

"How many of you are going?"

"I don't know the entire action plan yet, and part of it is confidential. I went alone, and they acted as a team. When we get to Xiangjiang, we have a way to contact us."

"When you get there, be sure to contact me. I will help you if I can."

"Well!" After Tian Xiaoqing finished speaking, he realized that he had been holding Wang Lin's hand, and quickly let go. His pretty face turned red, his heroic eyebrows wrinkled slightly, and he said, "Wang Lin, if I can't come back...

…”

"You will definitely come back!" Wang Lin said in a deep voice, "Think on the bright side!"

"Okay. Stop talking. I'll peel another orange for you to eat."

Wang Lin sat at her house for more than an hour without realizing it, and it was already past nine o'clock in the evening when he left.

He drove back and when he passed by the vegetable market, he saw that there was also a night market stall set up here.

It seems that the rise and popularity of late-night snacks is unstoppable!

Wang Lin saw a familiar figure and stopped the car.

"Sister Xu!" Wang Lin walked over with a smile.

"Deputy Director Wang, hello!" Xu Ying smiled in surprise when she saw it was him, "Come and sit."

"Are you setting up a Malatang stall?" Wang Lin asked.

"Yeah, there's nothing much to do at night anyway. I saw that a night market has emerged in the vegetable market here recently, and they also set up stalls. It's good to make a few extra bucks."

"You should have come out and set up a stall long ago!" Wang Lin said with a smile, "Director Hu from your cafeteria is setting up a late-night snack stall outside!"

"Yes, I heard him talk about it. I also listened to what he said, and that's when I came up with this idea. As a director, he can set up a stall and sell barbecue, so I can sell it too."

"Of course, there are no noble or humble professions! I once set up a stall and sold pants! How is your business?"

"It's okay. It's just too cold."

"It's good to be cold. It's just right to eat spicy hotpot on a cold day. I feel hungry just smelling the aroma, so I'll eat some too."

"Sit down." Xu Ying shouted, "Yanzi, come here."

A girl with two pigtails was stringing vegetables. After hearing this, she put down her work and came over: "Mom!"

Xu Ying said: "This is Deputy Factory Director Wang Linwang. He is a great benefactor to my family. You must remember it."

Yanzi looked at Wang Lin with his big eyes: "I recognize this big brother. He has been to my house and even gave me money to buy candies!"

Wang Lin chuckled: "You have a really good memory. How old are you?"

"It's my thirteenth birthday and I'm fourteen!"

"Good! She's so good." Wang Lin saw that she was pretty, slender, and looked like Xu Ying. He touched her head and asked, "Are your academic performance good?"

"Well, every time I take the test, I rank in the top five in the class!"

"That's right, study hard!" Wang Lin took out ten yuan, put it in her hand, and said with a smile, "When you get first place in the class, tell your brother, and I will give you another hundred yuan as a reward!"

"Thank you, brother Wang Lin!" Yanzi took the money and went to work happily.

Xu Ying smiled and said: "Deputy Director Wang, what do you want to eat?"

"I don't care." Wang Lin said with a smile, "It smells pretty good."

In a pot, a lot of spicy hot pot was boiling, and several people were sitting at the table eating it.

Xu Ying took some Malatang, got a bowl for Wang Lin, and placed it in front of him.

Wang Linda said: "Can it be packed?"

"OK."

"Pack it for me for five yuan! I have a foodie at home who loves these."

"You mean Li Wenjuan, right?"

"Yes, that's her."

"The last time I saw her, she was getting more and more beautiful. She looked like a princess, wearing a necklace and earrings. Did she have a family?"

"No! I bought them for her, and she wears them to play with! She is still young, so she is not in a hurry to find someone else."

"That's it. She is so lucky to have a brother-in-law like you."

Wang Lin was eating spicy hotpot, it was so spicy that it was so satisfying!

"Who is the stall owner?" Two men wearing red sleeve bands came over, "Pay the stall rent!"

Xu Ying responded: "Here we come!"

Wang Lin asked: "How much does the rent cost?"

Xu Yingdao: "Two yuan a day. If you set up a stall, you will be charged. If you don't set up a stall, you will not be charged."

"That's quite expensive!" Wang Lin said in surprise, "Two yuan a day? Sixty yuan a month! Just such a shabby stall? Who cares?"

"This area is all managed by the factory."

Wang Lin looked at the two people collecting booth fees. They looked vaguely familiar. Sure enough, they were from the logistics department of the factory. He waved to them: "Come here."

The two people took a closer look and hurriedly walked over with smiles on their faces: "Hey, isn't this Deputy Director Wang? Deputy Director Wang, hello, are you eating Malatang?"

Wang Lindao: "Who asked you to collect money? Has the money collected been handed over to the public?"

"This, this? Deputy Director Wang, this money can't go into our pockets. We manage this area together with the street office!"

"My cousin is from a poor household. She only earns a few yuan a day by setting up such a stall. You have to take away two yuan. Who set this price? Have you asked the factory for instructions? I am in charge of logistics work.

, How come I don’t know about this? The factory’s finances don’t see any revenue from this!”

"This? Deputy Factory Director Wang, this is your cousin's stall? Then we won't collect money. We will go to other stalls to collect money. Regarding this income, we are in contact with Director Ma of the factory. You

If you have any questions, you can ask Director Ma."

"Okay, I will ask, you go ahead!"

"Yes, Deputy Director Wang." The two hooked up, winked at each other, and left quickly.

When Xu Ying saw this, she couldn't help but pursed her lips and smiled: "You still have a lot of face. You can scare them away with just one sentence!"

Wang Lindao: "They shouldn't charge this money. Even if they have to charge it, the local government should set up a management office and charge it with a clearly marked price. Two yuan a night is definitely too expensive!"

Xu Yingdao: "That's right! For a small stall, in one month, the rent is equal to one month's salary."

Wang Lin said: "They are sucking blood! Sister Xu, if you have any difficulties in the future, just come to me. If anyone dares to bully you, give me Wang Lin's name!"

Xu Ying's eyes turned red, she stretched out her hand to wipe the corners of her eyes, and said, "Thank you, Wang Lin, for taking care of me so much, I have nothing to repay you for."

"Don't say such things. Don't people just need help and warmth from each other?" Wang Lin said, "Okay, I've finished eating, and I'm leaving!"

He took out fifty yuan and put it on the table, then left with the packaged Malatang.

"Deputy Director Wang, I haven't asked you for any money yet!" Xu Ying shouted.

"No need! Leave it here with you! I'll have to come back to eat in the future!" Wang Lin waved his hand without looking back, got in the car and left.

Xu Ying took the money and watched Wang Lin leave, feeling warm in her heart.

"Mom!" Yanzi walked over and said with a smile, "Brother Wang Lin is such a good person."

"Well, you have to remember him. When you grow up, you must repay him."

"I know, Mom!"

Wang Lin returned home.

"Brother-in-law, what delicious food did you buy?" Li Wenjuan shrugged her nose, "It smells so good! Malatang! Isn't it?"

"Yes! Malatang! I bought it for you! I bought a big bowl! It has meat, shrimp, and meatballs."

"Oh my god, there are so many! Sister, come and eat too!"

"I don't want it." Li Wenxiu shook his head gently, "I'm afraid it won't be good for the baby!"

Wang Lin was also playing here and said with a smile: "I'm not that particular, Wenjuan, I'll eat with you. It's not dirty, and you won't get sick after eating!"

Li Wenjuan smiled and said: "I mean, my sister is very particular about poverty!"

Wang Lin smiled and said: "I bought this from the stall set up by Xu Ying. I think the Malatang she makes is very clean. You can eat a little."

"Xu Ying made Mala Tang? Is the business good?" Li Wenxiu asked with a smile.

"It seems fine. I heard her say that she can make a few dollars a day during this period!"

"That's not bad! It's no worse than going to work."

"Well, it's not bad." Wang Lin said with a smile, "As long as you work hard, there are still many ways to make money."

"Didn't you go find Tian Xiaoqing? What did she say?"

"It's hard to explain in words. I'll tell you when you go to sleep."

"Oh, okay, Wenjuan, give me some. I'll just eat the kelp and cabbage. I don't dare to eat meat." Li Wenxiu saw that Li Wenjuan was eating well, and she also became greedy.

After eating Malatang, Wang Lin sat for a while and then left.

Li Wenxiu said: "Sister Lin and I have made an appointment to go to the hospital for a check-up this Sunday. Will you go with us?"

Wang Lin pondered for a moment: "Isn't this Sunday New Year's Day?"

"Is it New Year's Day? I didn't pay attention." Li Wenxiu said, "Are you busy on New Year's Day?"

"Didn't I tell you? I'm going to Xiangjiang Dahua Company for inspection."

"Are you going to Xiangjiang?"

"Yes, are you going?"

"I would like to go, but it's too far away. You see, my belly is getting bigger. It's too inconvenient and very tiring to travel far away!"

"Brother-in-law, take me there! I don't have a big belly, so I can go easily!" Li Wenjuan immediately shouted.

"There's still oil on your mouth that hasn't been wiped off! Go and wash it off!" Wang Lin said with a smile, "Xiangjiang, you can't go."

"Why can't I go?"

"You need a two-way permit, but you don't have one."

"Ah? Then my sister doesn't have a certificate either!"

"That's right, so none of you can go."

Li Wenjuan curled her lips and said, "Then you just asked my sister if she was going? Huh, didn't you ask in vain?"

"Haha!" Wang Lin thought to himself, this Li Wenjuan is really a ghost.

Li Wenxiu said: "Wenjuan, let's go together later! Your brother-in-law is going to inspect Dahua Company this time, not traveling."

Wang Lin said: "Yes, I was invited to go. If I have the opportunity in the future, I will take you on a special trip."

Turn off the lights for a while and go to sleep.

Wang Lin then said: "Wenxiu, Sister Tian is also going to Xiangjiang, also on New Year's Day."

Li Wenxiu was startled and came closer: "Is she going with you?"

"No, she is on a business trip, and they have a team to go with."

"What a coincidence?"

"I think it's such a coincidence! This matter is very confidential. Just know it and don't tell anyone else."

"Secret? Are you sure you two didn't discuss it?"

"What are you thinking about? I heard from Sister Tian that what she is going to do this time is probably very dangerous, and she has left all her funeral arrangements to me."

"Ah?" Li Wenxiu immediately stopped thinking about the love between children and was instead attracted by the story Wang Lin told her. "It's just a trip to Xiangjiang. What's the danger?"

"We don't understand. She is on a mission." Wang Lin said, "She told me that if she can come back alive, she will take a leave of absence without pay and help me for two years. If she can't come back, there will be no future."

Li Wenxiu said: "Oh my god! It's so scary! Wang Lin, when you arrive in Xiangjiang, stay away from her! Don't let the bad guys think that you are in the same group! It would be bad if it affects Chiyu."

"..."

In the late 1970s, China and Britain signed the "Sino-British Civil Air Transport Agreement", making it possible to open regional routes to Hong Kong.

On June 21, 1980, the Shanghai-Hong Kong route was opened, operated by Air China and Cathay Pacific at the time, with eight flights a week at that time.

Apart from flights, you can only enter through ports such as Luohu.

In addition to being expensive and having few routes, flights also require high approval requirements.

However, none of this troubles Wang Lin.

Wang Lin is now the deputy director of Shenfang No. 1 Factory, one of the ten outstanding young people in Shencheng of the year, and has an invitation letter from Xiangjiang Dahua Company for inspection. No matter which aspect of the review, he will definitely pass.

For convenience, Shen Xue checked in as Wang Lin's assistant.

Wang Lin and the others did not wait until New Year's Day to set off, but set out one day in advance.

December 31, 1988, was the 23rd day of the 11th month of the lunar calendar. This day was a Saturday, so everything in the old imperial calendar was unfavorable.

In the morning, Wang Lin sent Li Wenxiu and the others to the factory and told Zhou Zhi, "I'm going to Xiangjiang for a few days. During these days, I'll leave the factory affairs to you. Chen Xiaoxi has just arrived and doesn't understand anything. You

Teach her more."

"You are going to Xiangjiang, are you going alone? Are you going without her?" Zhou Zhou said in surprise.

"Haha!" Wang Lin smiled slightly, "I went to inspect Xiangjiang Dahua Company! You thought I was just going to have fun!"

"Then when will you come back?" Zhou Zhou asked.

"Three to five days!" Wang Lin said, "What's wrong? You can't bear to leave me?"
