After unloading the wood, Tu Zhiqiang stayed for a while before leaving the furniture factory with the car.
"Come on, let's go out for dinner together tonight?"
As soon as Tu Zhiqiang left, a round-faced male educated youth came over.
"Not tonight, I have an appointment."
Li Jie spread his hands, showing a helpless look.
"Then let's do it next time."
The round-faced educated youth hesitated for a moment and sighed.
It is a recognized fact among the educated youth groups that Dianchang is a busy man, and the round-faced educated youth did not take Li Jie's rejection seriously.
"Well, I'll definitely do it next time."
What I said just now is not an excuse. Li Jie did have an appointment with someone tonight. Cai Xiaoguang made an appointment with him for dinner tonight.
Since returning to the city, the two of them have had more and more gatherings, both for official and private matters.
Although Cai Xiaoguang did not personally participate in the construction of the factory, his shadow was present from beginning to end. He had already regarded this matter as a task assigned to him by the old man.
In addition, he himself thinks this is a very interesting and challenging thing.
Building a factory from scratch, even if it is not big, is a rare experience. How many people of the same age have no chance to do it even if they want to do it.
The place where the educated youths studied was not far from the warehouse. After unloading the goods, they returned to the workshop together.
Before officially entering the factory, the educated youth had almost no carpentry skills, but these days' educated youth have a ruthless spirit in their bones.
Without the distractions from the outside world, everyone can calm down and learn the woodworking craft patiently.
Three months have passed, and everyone has basically entered the door. Those who can come here to study are all selected, so the progress is not too fast, nor is it too full.
According to the current progress, it shouldn't be a problem to make some simple furniture when I go back in three months.
Such as simple chairs, cabinets, etc.
However, this is still far from Li Jie's expectation.
He wants to bring his factory to the Canton Fair. Simple furniture cannot meet the requirements of the Canton Fair.
The full name of the Canton Fair is the 'China Export Commodities Fair'. It was founded in 1957 and is held in Guangzhou every spring and autumn.
Up to now, this trade fair has been held for thirty sessions.
The Canton Fair targets foreign customers, and when doing business with foreigners, the currency of settlement is naturally foreign currency.
In this era when foreign exchange is scarce, being able to earn foreign exchange through export is definitely a great thing.
If Xiaoqingshan Village can pass all the way, enter the Canton Fair's exhibitor list, and get foreign orders.
It was bound to be a sensation in the whole province, and even in the whole country.
If this thing is done, the deeds of Xiaoqingshan Village are likely to be established as a model.
In this way, Li Jie is registered with it. As long as he doesn't make any big mistakes in the future, this amulet will be considered stable.
…
…
…
As dusk approached, Tu Zhiqiang hummed a little tune and slowly left the factory on his 28-inch big bar. Along the way, people greeted him from time to time.
Tu Zhiqiang is a very loyal person and is quite popular in the factory.
However, his relationship with most people can only be maintained at a good level, just eating and drinking.
If something really happened, there probably wouldn't be many people to help him.
Tu Zhiqiang knew this situation, and he didn't care at all, because he maintained it deliberately.
Neither too close nor too distant.
About ten minutes later, Tu Zhiqiang rode his bike to an alley. As soon as he entered the alley and turned a corner, he saw the person he wanted to see.
"Brother Qiang!"
Not far away, a bookish man wearing a woolen coat waved towards the entrance of the alley with a smile.
Seeing this scene, Tu Zhiqiang also smiled and waved, then significantly increased the frequency of pedaling, and soon he was in front of the opponent.
"Brother Qiang!"
Next to the man stood a man with a horse face. Compared to the man's natural look, his expression was obviously much more reserved.
It can be seen that the relationship between the horse-faced man and Tu Zhiqiang is not close.
"Hello, Brother Qiang!"
"Shibin is here too."
Tu Zhiqiang nodded slightly, with a smile on his face, but there was a hint of displeasure in his heart.
These two people are Shui Ziliu and Luo Shibin respectively. The handsomer man with a scholarly air all over his body is Shui Ziliu.
The other horse-faced man is Luo Shibin.
Tu Zhiqiang didn't like Luo Shibin very much. He always felt that this person was a bit shady, but due to Shui Ziliu's reputation, he was not easy to show off to others.
After all, water flow has a lot to do with him.
And this is also the reason why he doesn't like Luo Shibin. The relationship between him and Shui Ziliu is very complicated. If anyone knows about it, it will never be tolerated by the world.
Luo Shibin is a smart man. Over time, the other party will probably see something.
Soon, Tu Zhiqiang retracted his thoughts. He glanced at Shui Ziliu without any trace. He didn't quite understand why Shui Ziliu always brought Luo Shibin with him when they met.
"Brother Qiang, I recently discovered a restaurant where you don't need to collect food stamps to eat, as long as you have money."
Shui Ziliu didn't notice Tu Zhiqiang's strangeness, or in other words, he noticed it, but didn't care.
"Come on, let's go have a massage today."
Although Shui Ziliu didn't have many tickets, he still had a lot of money. In the past, Tu Zhiqiang would pay for every restaurant he went to.
After finally finding a restaurant that didn't take food stamps, he had to show off.
"good."
After saying that, the three of them drove away, and not long after, they came to a remote alley.
"Brother Qiang, we're here."
This was not the first time that Shui Ziliu had come. Tu Zhiqiang, who was familiar with the road, parked the car and walked a few steps into the alley.
He didn't stop until he reached the end of the alley and saw a small gatehouse.
Tu Zhiqiang followed step by step. The further he walked, the more curious he became. This place was very remote, and there was no smell of food around him.
It doesn't look like a place to eat.
have to!
have to!
On the other side, water flowed forward and gently knocked on the small door next to the gatehouse.
After a while, a boy who looked like a teenager opened the small window left on the wooden door. When the boy saw the water flowing by itself, his expression became visibly relaxed.
"Brother Shui is here, please wait a moment, I will open the door for you right now."
The young man knew Shui Ziliu. He was a frequent visitor here. Every time he came to eat, he was generous with his money and never cared about anything.
Who opens the door for business and doesn’t like customers who have more money but less business?
Squeaky.
After the small door opened, the three people filed in. As soon as they entered, the young man immediately closed the door. Before closing the door, he looked outside a few more times.
"Er Mao, come on, have a cigarette."
Shui Ziliu took the cigarette case from Luo Shibin with a smile, and then slowly started to smoke.
Luo Shibin's action of passing the cigarette was very natural, and the process of Shui Ziliu receiving the cigarette was also very natural, because Luo Shibin recognized his younger brother from Shui Ziliu.
