At around two o'clock in the afternoon, Zhou Chen and Zheng Juan, who were full of wine and food, left the photo studio.
As for the suggestions he made to Xiao Guoqing and Sun Qianchao, whether they would agree or not was beyond his control.
The opportunity has been given, it's up to them whether they can seize it or not.
The logistics company in Shuiziliu has slowly grown and developed since it was re-opened. Nowadays, Shuiziliu has dozens of people under its management. Private enterprises in this era can be said to be very strong.
Although he has not taken any profit from Shuiziliu over the years, the relationship between the two has not been severed. Shuiziliu often writes to him for advice. It is with his help that Shuiziliu's logistics company can develop like this.
fast.
Let alone two people, even if two more people are packed in, the water will flow and they will never refuse.
Zhou Chen left, but Sun Ganchao and Yu Hong did not leave Xiao Guoqing's place immediately, but gathered together to discuss.
"National Day, what do you think of Kun'er's suggestion? Should we buy out our seniority and go to the logistics company he mentioned, or should we stay in the lumber factory?"
Sun Qianchao was a little more thoughtful than Xiao Guoqing, but he was still hesitant now. He felt that Zhou Chen would definitely not fool them and said that if he could find them a job, then he would definitely find a job.
But there is still the same problem. Now they are established workers. If they buy out their seniority and go to work at the logistics company Zhou Chen mentioned, they will be temporary workers.
One is a permanent workforce with little future, and the other is a temporary workforce that may make more money, but is unstable.
How to choose, this made Sun Qianchao really unable to make a decision.
Xiao Guoqing thought for a moment, then shook his head and said, "I don't know either."
Two women, Yu Hong said: "Wu Qian, I think the establishment of formal workers is more reliable. The lumber factory has collapsed. There may be other ways out. We can't say what the logistics company Bingkun said is like.
Accurate, right?"
But Wu Qian had a different view than her: "I think what Zhou Bingkun said makes sense. There is no hope for the lumber factory. Bingkun also said that working as a driver will pay very high wages. Even if there is no establishment, as long as
If you can make money, it's a good job."
In the end, the four of them failed to reach a conclusion through discussion.
The next day.
What surprised Zhou Chen was that the person who came to him turned out to be Xiao Guoqing.
He originally thought that the active Sun Qianchao would come to him first, but he didn't expect that the person who came to him was Xiao Guoqing.
After Xiao Guoqing saw Zhou Chen, he immediately said: "Kun'er, I have already thought about it. I am ready to buy out my seniority and leave the lumber factory."
"Has the decision been made?" Zhou Chen asked.
Xiao Guoqing nodded and responded: "It's decided. Wu Qian has no objection. Kun'er, does the logistics company you mentioned have to learn to drive?"
Zhou Chen said: "Driving has the highest salary. Although loading and unloading is a lot of work, it is very hard. It's just hard work and no skills. It's okay when you are young, but it won't work as you get older; but driving is different. When
Being a driver is a technical job that lasts a long time. If you want to do it, I suggest you learn to drive."
Xiao Guoqing snapped the case on the spot and said: "Okay, Kun'er, you are much smarter than me. I believe you won't lie to me, so I will just listen to you. I will learn to drive and then go to work in a logistics company."
Zhou Chen smiled and said: "Don't bother me. I will take you to Shuiziliu later. He is in charge of the logistics company now. It will be more convenient for him to help you find someone to teach you how to drive."
"Water flows by itself? Why does this name sound familiar?"
Xiao Guoqing frowned when he heard Shui Ziliu's name.
Zhou Chen explained: "He used to hang out with Tu Zhiqiang. He had contact with me before. I suggested him to run the logistics company. You don't have to think so much. He is on the right track now and there will be no impact.
It’s impossible for me to harm you, right?”
Hearing Zhou Chen's assurance, Xiao Guoqing was relieved and said, "Okay, I'll listen to you."
"What did Qianchao say?" Zhou Chen asked Sun Qianchao again.
Xiao Guoqing said: "I didn't look for him when I came here, but when I was at our house yesterday, I heard from him and Yu Hong that they seemed to be planning to stay in the lumber factory."
Zhou Chen was a little surprised, but he didn't say much: "Okay, let me get something and go over now."
Because it was Chinese New Year, the water flowed freely and he didn't wander around, so he stayed at home. Zhou Chen found him easily.
After explaining the situation, Shui Ziliu agreed immediately without saying a word and asked Xiao Guoqing to buy out his seniority and come over immediately. He arranged for someone to teach Xiao Guoqing how to drive.
Now he is leading dozens of subordinates, and Shui Ziliu's demeanor has changed a lot, becoming more and more like a boss.
Although the current business scale is getting bigger and bigger, Shui Ziliu still respects Zhou Chen very much. He knows very well that he can achieve his current achievements because of his own hard work, but without Zhou Chen's help and connections at the beginning, he would not be able to achieve his current achievements.
He is determined not to be where he is now.
What's more, now that Zhou Chen is already prosperous in Yanjing, and the father-in-law of the eldest son of the Zhou family is Hao Gaoguan, he will naturally be more polite to Zhou Chen.
After making arrangements for Xiao Guoqing, Zhou Chen took Zheng Juan and the children to the provincial compound the next day and visited Ma Shouchang and Qu Xiuzhen.
The reunion during the Spring Festival was short-lived, and in a blink of an eye it was time to part again. First, Zhou Zhigang left by train, and then Zhou Chen and others left by train.
As for Zhou Bingyi, Zhou Chen saw him once when he was bidding farewell to Zhou Zhigang, but he did not see him once in the rest of the days.
Zhou Bingyi's behavior was chilling. Even after Li Suhua arrived in Yanjing, she rarely mentioned her eldest son. Perhaps in her heart, she felt dissatisfied with her eldest son's treatment of her brothers.
Back in Yanjing, life returned to its normal state, with people going to work, people going to school, and people doing housework.
When the time came in the autumn of 1983, something unexpected happened.
"Dr. Zhou, the patient has been pushed into the operating room."
After hearing what the nurse said, Zhou Chen stood up and walked to the operating room. After changing his clothes, he was ready for the operation.
But just as he was about to go in, a nurse came over: "Dr. Zhou, there is someone outside looking for you."
Zhou Chen raised his eyebrows: "What's the matter with you? I'm going to have an operation soon. I won't see anyone at this time. Don't you know it well?"
The little nurse who was scolded by Zhou Chen looked aggrieved: "Dr. Zhou, I know it, but that person said he was your eldest brother and that he had something very important to ask you. He asked you to meet him before the operation.
It’s extremely urgent.”
"Zhou Bingyi?"
Zhou Chen was even more surprised when he heard that it was Zhou Bingyi who wanted to see him, but he did not change his attitude.
"Let him wait and prepare for surgery."
After saying that, he got ready, walked into the operating room, and started the operation.
Zhou Bingyi, who was waiting in Zhou Chen's office, was very angry after receiving the nurse's reply.
"This Bingkun, I've told you that I'm in urgent need, but he's still like this..."
He was angry, but he could only stay in Zhou Chen's office and wait for several hours.
More than three hours later, Zhou Chen came out of the operating room. After changing clothes and washing, he returned to the office looking slightly tired.
As soon as I returned to the office, I saw Zhou Bingyi dozing off in a chair.
When Zhou Bingyi heard the sound, he suddenly opened his eyes. When he saw it was Zhou Chen, he immediately stood up.
"Bingkun, what's the matter with you? I already told you that there are urgent matters, why did you keep me waiting for several hours? Do you know..."
"Zhou Bingyi."
Zhou Chen interrupted Zhou Bingyi's rambling very rudely and said in a cold voice: "I just finished the operation. I am very tired now and want to rest. If you have something to say, just leave if you have nothing to do. Don't nag in my ear.
"
In more than three years, this was the first time that Zhou Bingyi took the initiative to see him, but Zhou Bingyi complained all the time when he saw him, so naturally he would not get used to it.
Zhou Bingyi was very angry at Zhou Chen's attitude. He breathed heavily and tried hard to calm down.
"Bingkun, I know you are still angry with me, but today I..."
"Zhou Bingyi, I don't want to listen to your lectures. Please talk to me quickly, otherwise please leave. I want to rest."
Zhou Bingyi's face was ashen and he could only hold back his anger and said: "Hurry up and change your clothes, follow me to the train station and buy a ticket back to Jichun. Dongmei's father is dying."
Looking at Zhou Bingyi with an eager face, Zhou Chen had a strange look in his eyes.
"Zhou Bingyi, there is something wrong with you. Your father-in-law is dying. What does it have to do with me? Why should I go back to Jichun with you?"
Zhou Bingyi explained: "It's Dongmei's father who wants to see you."
Zhou Chen sneered: "If he wants to see me, I have to go see him? What kind of bullshit logic is this? You should leave quickly. I don't have time to tell you about the Hao family."
Zhou Bingyi said anxiously: "Bingkun, what is your attitude? Dongmei's father is also an elder after all. He is the parent official of our Jiangliao Province. At the last moment, he didn't want to see anyone else, but just wanted to see you. How could you
This attitude?”
Zhou Chen was irritated by what he said: "Then what should my attitude be? Does he have anything to do with me if he is a parent official? He is your father-in-law, not mine. He has no right to order me to do anything. You
Go quickly, don't hinder my work."
"How could you do this, Zhou Bingkun, I am your eldest brother and Dongmei is your eldest sister-in-law. Now your eldest sister-in-law's father wants to see you. Even if it is for me and Dongmei, you should not refuse. Even if our parents know
Yes, they will let you go."
"For you and Hao Dongmei? Are you worthy? Let me tell you the truth, even if you go to your parents to intercede, I will not go with you to see him."
After saying that, he immediately picked up the phone and dialed: "Hello, security department? I'm Zhou Bingkun from the oncology department. Come here. Someone is making trouble here. Please come and deal with it."
Seeing that Zhou Chen actually called the security guard, Zhou Bingyi became furious, pointed at Zhou Chen and cursed: "Zhou Bingkun, are you crazy? I am your eldest brother, and you actually asked the security guard to chase me away?"
Zhou Chen was too lazy to pay attention to him, and just asked: "Do you want to leave by yourself now, or do you want to be dragged away by the security guards later? Think about it for yourself?"
He really had no patience for Zhou Bingyi. If he was here for his family, he might not have this attitude.
But Zhou Bingyi was lucky, because he had a quarrel with the Hao couple and hadn't taken the initiative to meet him for more than three years. This time he came to visit him for the sake of his father-in-law, and even used this attitude. He didn't scold him on the spot, just
Because the workplace is not right.
Zhou Bingyi, who was threatened, changed his face several times, and finally snorted coldly: "Zhou Bingkun, you disappoint me so much."
Zhou Chen rolled his eyes, "Are you possessed by Su Mingzhe?"
"Hao Senior Official is dying? Counting the time, it's not much different from the TV series."
The TV series did not specify when Hao Gaoguan left, but according to his speculation, it was around this time.
To be honest, if the Hao family and his wife had not been delayed for eight or nine years, I am afraid that their current position would not be their end.
The only thing that surprised him was that after he scolded the Hao couple, Hao Senior Official's style changed and he actually strongly supported the reform. Even though he was scolded by thousands of people, he did not give up. This was better than in the TV series.
The more, the more responsible.
Regarding the current environment in Jiangliao Province, to many people, what Hao Gaoguan did was very failed and excessive, but in the long run, his approach is definitely correct.
This can be seen from the fact that she has been able to sit steadily in this position for more than three years.
Zhou Chen was certain that Hao Gaoguan's change should be directly related to his scolding.
But even so, Zhou Chen was not prepared to meet Senior Official Hao, not even for the last time.
When he got home from get off work, he was greeted by a gloomy-looking Zhou Bingyi.
Zhou Chen directly ignored Zhou Bingyi and said to Li Suhua next to him: "Mom, I'm back."
Li Suhua waved to him: "Kun'er, come on, come and sit."
Zhou Chen went over and sat down. Li Suhua hesitated for a moment and then said: "Kun'er, Bingyi said, Dongmei's father is dying and he wants to see you. Why don't you want to go?"
Zhou Chen sneered and said: "Mom, you should know very well what they did to our family. Now that he is dying and wants to see me, why should I go over to meet him?"
Li Suhua advised: "Bingkun, I know you are still brooding about what happened back then, but after all so many years have passed, it's time to let it go. For your elder brother's sake, go and see Dongmei's father. If you
If dad finds out about this, he will definitely advise you in the same way."
"Mom, I know you do it for my own good, and I understand why people don't fight with officials, but I still can't forgive him, and I don't want to see him."
"Shut up, Zhou Bingyi, listen to me. No matter what you say, I will not go to Jichun with you, let alone see your father-in-law. Even if you don't recognize me as your brother, I will not go back. Listen
Understand, don’t waste your efforts anymore.”
After saying that, Zhou Chen walked straight into his room regardless of Zhou Bingyi's ugly expression.
As a mother, Li Suhua was helpless when she saw the two brothers quarreling again, but both of them had bad tempers, and she couldn't stop them at all.
Zhou Bingyi complained to his mother: "Mom, look at what he looks like now."
Li Suhua sighed: "You also know Bingkun's temper. If you talk to him properly, it will still be useful. But look at your attitude just now, alas, you can solve this matter yourself, I can't interfere."
Although she also wants to solve the problem between the two brothers, she knows her own abilities. The younger son is filial, but he is very independent. Even as a mother, it is difficult for her to change him.
Zhou Bing stomped his feet in a righteous manner. In the end, he had no choice but to leave sadly.
Zhou Chen doesn't care what Zhou Bingyi thinks, or what Hao Dongmei's family thinks. Anyway, he is just petty and won't look. What can they do to him?
