Era: Retired from the army at the beginning and returned home

Ngee Ann Railway Station.

It's four o'clock, and the train to Nancheng is about to leave. The four art soldiers are going to finish this special 'mission' and return to their art troupe.

The mission this time was considered perfect. The squad leader's partner was all in love, and he was a really nice person. There were still four people serving them dumplings and noodles. Although they were given tickets, they were still national food stamps.

The squad leader agreed that one person would have four taels per day, so three days would only amount to one catty and two taels. The food expenses are only one pound and two taels of fine grain, which is only two cents per person for three days.

Compared with the food we entertained, everyone knew that this amount of money and tickets was an advantage. When I left just now, the squad leader gave it to the other party's sister.

The train will start in ten minutes. Generally, even if the departure time is late, it will not be delayed by a few minutes.

The monitor was sitting at the window of the train, looking out the window.

"Squad leader, Luo Cheng is still at work at this time. Didn't you agree at noon not to send it to him? He won't show up."

"I didn't wait for him. I just came to Ngee Ann once. I think this place is quite interesting."

"The monitor, after we've been together for a few days, do you like him or not?"

"I have to like it even if I don't like it. If I don't listen to my grandfather, I will have to listen to my parents and find someone in the army. I don't want to find someone in the army."

Dai Qianxi looked out the window and always answered them in a ambiguous or evasive way. She didn't want these subordinates to know what she was thinking.

At the front of the green train, several staff saw that the time was almost up, picked up shovels and shoveled the prepared coal into the fireplace. Today's green trains are also called steam trains. They still rely on the most primitive coal to boil water to generate steam, and then use the steam to push the pistons.

However, you have to wait for a while when it first starts burning. If there is insufficient steam, it will not start immediately. It is also the most difficult to start. When starting, you will see the air outlet on the front of the car expelling a large amount of steam. Burning coal itself also produces smoke. There are exhaust pipes, and black coal smoke is emitted from the roof of the train. A large amount of steam is discharged from both sides, and when combined together, it is also a spectacular scene.

"Damn it, the station won't let the sidecars in. The train has started, and where are the people? I don't know which carriage they are in."

In the autumn of winter, the weather was already very cold, and Luo Cheng was sweating all over. At the auto repair shop, after Luo Cheng taught the mechanics how to install shock absorbers, he handed over the supervision to Team Leader Jiang and others. Team Leader Jiang originally wanted to see how this thing was designed to be installed and where it was installed.

"Dai Xixi~~, Dai Xixi."

Luo Cheng shouted loudly. He had thought about it. They said that in this era, one person would last a lifetime, and he wanted to try hard. Even though it will be a long-distance relationship now, he is afraid that he will not care and lose a girl who can make his heart palpitate.

"Monitor, listen, someone seems to be shouting."

When the car started slowly, Dai Qianqian withdrew her gaze, and suddenly she seemed to hear someone calling her. She thought it was an illusion, but after Zhao Qian's reminder, she realized it wasn't.

"Luo Cheng, I'm here~~."

Dai Qianqian hurriedly opened the window. The trains in this era had a sliding window with a hook stuck in it. It was very convenient to open and close.

I'm going~~. Luo Ben had almost given up. He was holding his legs with his hands and breathing heavily. He had just trotted in from the door of the train station. Now the trains are moving slowly, which is the trains of this era. In the future, the staff will not let you get close to the trains at this time.

My physical fitness has gotten better recently, but I'm still not strong. The distance isn't too far, so just sprint.

Tens of seconds later, Luo Cheng sat on the ground and took a deep breath. He must have been running out of oxygen just now, and his head was a little dizzy. But my goal has been achieved and I can go back.

On the train.

"Monitor, didn't you say you weren't waiting for him? Why did you do that just now? I actually gave you an apple. It's so red and big. I want to take a bite."

"Monitor, I want to eat an apple too."

The female art soldiers were making noises, and the dignified art soldier squad leader could only ignore them with a shy expression.

In the courtyard room, it was already dark when Luo Cheng came back.

Because Dai Qianqian and the others were here these two days, Luo Cheng never found time to talk to his two sisters about work. He went to the repair shop to raise pigs, chickens and ducks to see what they thought.

"Xiaoyu, Shishi, let me tell you something."

"Brother, tell me."

"Brother, what's the matter?"

Luo Cheng was talking to them in the kitchen at this time. At this time, he started cooking dinner.

"Would you like to be a temporary worker? You are bored at home all day now. Of course, it doesn't matter if you don't want to be a temporary worker. I can support you. When there is a chance in the future, I will find you a regular job."

Temporary worker? You work to earn money like everyone else. In the past few days in the city, Xiaoyu knows the difference between temporary workers and regular workers. When Luo Cheng was away, she and Shishi often chatted with the neighbors nearby, and in the past few days, neighbors often came to the door for no other reason than because there was a well in their yard. Those uncles and aunts just wanted to Save some money on tap water and come here to get water from the well to wash your clothes.

I heard from the neighbors about this job. They said that their brother drives a car and rides a three-wheeler, so he should be a capable person. If possible, find them a job, even if it is a temporary job, as long as If you have a job, it will be much easier to marry someone from the city. But if there are no temporary workers, then marrying a city dweller will be too much of a burden for others.

Of course, if you have the ability to find a formal job, you can directly become a city dweller and eat rations.

"I'm willing to do any job if I'm willing to do it."

Xiaoyu said resolutely that she would be willing to clean the toilets even if she was asked to do so. She had heard that people who clean toilets in the city earn a salary of more than ten yuan a month.

"Brother, I can do it too. Although I am young, I am very strong."

Shishi also responded hurriedly, but she was only a little over fourteen years old and shorter than Xiaoyu, so she was afraid that others would not want her.

"Let me tell you straight, the repair shop is planning to set up a place to raise pigs, chickens and ducks. The factory director asked you to go there. Have you ever raised pigs? If you can, both of you can go. It will cost you eighteen yuan a month. Five, life is not easy, you have to cook pig food."

"I have. When we were raising pigs in the production team, Shishi and I both cut pig grass. But how do you feed the pigs in the city? Now there is no pig grass."

"As long as they have been raised, you don't need to cut the pig grass. There are rice bran and soybean meal. You can just mix them together and cook them. Feed the chickens and ducks the same way."

When Xiaoyu and Shishi heard this, they both said there was no problem.

Seeing that they had no problem, Luo Cheng nodded. During this season, there were no chicks on the market, but there were still some in the breeding farms. As for pigs, there are none for very young ones, but there are for pigs a few months old.

For example, if pigs are raised in a rural brigade or production team, and villagers are asked to raise piglets, they will choose spring because they can cut pig grass to feed the pigs. It was almost recycled during the Chinese New Year. Mainly because I know that if I don’t go to the fields to get pigweed or something else, the villagers won’t be able to afford it. But that doesn’t mean that piglets are only found in spring. In fact, they are also found in August and September. It’s just that they won’t be raised in rural areas.

In other words, if you want piglets, you can actually raise them in any season, but in winter, when the weather is cold, pigs are too small and difficult to raise.

The same is true for chickens and ducks. The poultry breeding factory provides feed, and as long as the temperature can be kept warm, chicks can be raised in winter. However, the cost of raising chickens in winter these days is too high, and farms will not do it.

You can now buy pigs that are several months old, while chickens and ducks can only be bought in large sizes specifically for laying eggs.

After the matter was settled, Luo Cheng asked them to work on it first and see if there were any other formal jobs for them when they had the opportunity. When they get older and have formal jobs, they can choose others in the city. Because not everyone in the city has a formal job.

Eating, washing, lying in bed and thinking for a while, and then going to bed, this is Luo Cheng's regular life routine.

In fact, the life rhythm of Luo Cheng's two sisters is now the same as Luo Cheng's. Of course, they get up earlier than Luo Cheng in the morning and have to get up early to make breakfast. But tonight, the two girls are destined to go to bed late.

I was so excited that I couldn't sleep at all. The work hadn't even started yet, so I was thinking about how to save and spend the eighteen and a half dollars I earned. The two of them hid in the bed and didn't know when they fell asleep.

It's a new day.

"A woman will only hinder my speed of drawing the sword."

Well, without the temptation of beauty, Luo Cheng didn't get up until about seven o'clock.

Xiao Yu was shouting outside the house just now that someone had gone to work, Luo Cheng just woke up, otherwise he could sleep for a while longer.

The car should be roughly completed today, and the shock absorber and booster pump machinery factory will be finished if nothing unexpected happens.

The welder master still asked five of them to come today. There was actually no welding work today. The main thing was that the hydraulic pipe of the booster pump needed to be welded.

But they have been busy for two days without stopping, so today is a day to relax for them. This will still need to be dispatched in the future. Not to mention the director of the factory over there, the master welder will definitely be more willing.

Today is destined to be a lively day at the auto repair shop. Yesterday, so many leaders came to watch, and their itineraries were recorded. Many local units knew that the repair shop had built cars.

And those companies won’t know. Don’t underestimate how powerful people’s information channels are in this era.

When Luo Cheng arrived at the auto repair shop, there were a lot of people standing outside the workshop. Director Huang of the poultry breeding factory, Station Director Hu of the grain station, director of the garment factory, director of the textile factory, and Director Sun of the meat factory~~~ and so on.

I don’t know where the news came from. I came to the repair shop early this morning. It doesn't matter if others come, but it doesn't matter if Director Sun from the Meat Factory comes over. Their 'support' was originally for the cars from the Amado Automobile Factory. They went to alms with the scheduling documents, and also made a document for them to sign, indicating that they supported the study group.

If it hadn't been specified that it was for the study group, Luo Cheng wouldn't have dared to divide it directly with Team Leader Jiang and the others, instead of taking care of the workers in the repair shop. Even if Luo Chengcheng gave some to Director Zhang, he wouldn't dare to take it.

This document has been signed by Luo Chengdu. He does not sell meat factory vehicles here, and the meat factory's monthly fifty kilograms of meat coupons are indispensable. If he didn't give it, he would not offend Luo Cheng, but the study group and the Automobile Factory.

Of course, there are also many people whom Luo Cheng doesn't know and has no contact with. But judging from their clothing and style, they are at least the heads of departments.

What also makes Luo Cheng strange is, what are these people doing here today? This is a test car, and the first batch will be taken for road testing. Even if it can be installed today, it is impossible to sell it to them.

Not many people here know Luo Cheng, that is, some people in the factories where Luo Cheng goes to beg for alms know him. There were too many people in the workshop, so Luo Cheng slipped directly to the office.

When passing by, he gestured to Director Zhang in the crowd. Director Zhang should understand what he meant.

Luo Cheng came to the team office. Team Leader Jiang and the others were there. The machine factory had promised that the things would be delivered here. The shock absorber is a finished product, and the booster pump is a delivered accessory that needs to be assembled by themselves. So just wait here. It should be delivered in the morning.

However, the booster pump tested last time is considered a qualified finished product and can be installed on a car first.

Not long after staying in the office, Factory Manager Zhang came over. Those people who were currently dispatched were still guarding the cars outside the workshop.

"Director Zhang, what's going on today? Why are so many people suddenly here?"

"Hey, it's not because of the road test application. If those few people come here, it doesn't mean that some people in Ngee Ann know about it. Now everyone wants to come over in advance to see if they can get a car. Those of us What was decided before is also afraid of changes, so I have to come here to implement it. If we can't come up with a plan today, it will be difficult to send these people away. "

Luo Cheng didn't expect it would turn out like this, but the grain station would definitely give it priority. This was a huge benefit. However, with rice bran and soybean meal, we need the support of poultry farms. Before I went to the farms to draw cakes, I wanted to delay their supply and not be included in the first batch. But now we need greater support from them, and we must give it priority.

The meat factory belongs to the big meat company in the city, and the grain station does not provide you with an unlimited supply of rice bran and soybean meal. It is impossible to raise a little by yourself, and you can just buy live pigs and piglets from them.

Forget about the textile factory, if you want to be well-dressed and warm, you were promised two cars last time. There are also garment factories, all of which have gone to alms.

This is still the trouble caused by applying for a road inspection. You already know what is there and what is not. How can you talk about support in private?

"I don't think I'm from a local unit."

"There is no such thing. Local units will only declare financial purchases and will not do that like those people."

"Okay, we can't hide anyway, so let's go and meet them. That's it now. Don't hide it, let's get straight to the point with them."

Factory Director Zhang nodded, and Team Leader Jiang was also interested in how Luo Cheng would solve the problem, so they went along to watch the excitement.

When a group of people came outside the workshop, Luo Cheng asked Director Zhang to call everyone over, and first asked Director Zhang to introduce himself.

"Comrades, only ten of this car have been built so far, and they still need to go for road testing. And even if these ten cars pass the test, half of them have already been reserved. I think you all know some things. .”

"There are so many people here today, and many of them are destined to leave empty-handed. I think since everyone is here for the cars, our auto repair shop doesn't want to offend anyone. How about this? Let's count the number of people in the unit now. How many are there? Work unit, we will get as many slips of paper as possible. Only five of the slips have bus purchase tickets written on them. Whoever catches them today will sell them to whomever they pass the road test."

Drawing lots is such a child's play, but it seems to be a very fair method. But it’s one thing to get a ticket. If you have a ticket, you can also ‘help’ the repair shop when it’s difficult. Otherwise, the previous companies that came out with so many things would be no worse than others. So grabbing the ticket is just the first step.

I couldn't stand it anymore. I originally wanted to stay up all night and write a big chapter. But I couldn't hold on, so I decided to break it off. I don't know if I can get up tomorrow morning.
