Rebirth in 88 starts as a carpenter

Rebirth in 1988: Begin as a Carpenter Chapter 208: Making an atomic bomb is not as good as selling tea eggs (3/4)

The bigger the business gets, the more Jiang Fan starts to pay attention to these details.

After handing the things to Yang Ruolin, Jiang Fan directly dialed the number of the Beigang store, but Yang Luoyan was not there.

Jiang Fan then dialed her pager.

After a while, Yang Luoyan called back. As soon as he heard what Jiang Fan meant, he decisively refused: "No! It's okay if you don't want a partner who goes back on his word."

Jiang Fan said no more, "I understand, I will tell him the truth."

After lunch.

Wu Yuan called Mr. Qiao, got into Santana, drove to Sipailou Road, and called Zhao Baojun.

The group went straight to Zhabei Labor Market.

As the end of the year draws to a close, the number of workers here waiting for work continues, but the number of employers who come to hire workers is sparse.

As soon as Wu Yuan and his group got out of the car, they were surrounded by a swarm of swarms.

Hold the sign in your hand and try to recommend yourself.

"Boss, I can build walls!"

"Boss, I can paint the walls!"

"Boss, I can do carpentry and make furniture."

"Boss, I can clear the sewers!"

Go! You're connected to the sewer, why are you joining in the fun?

"Boss, my price is low, just pay me and do it!"

There was yelling and everything.

But no matter what he shouted, Wu Yuan remained indifferent.

Because the job of selecting people today is entirely left to Fifth Master Qiao and his second apprentice Zhao Baojun.

More than half an hour later, Qiao Wuye and Baojun came back.

As soon as Zhao Baojun got in the car, he sighed: "Master, it's not easy for these masters. I really can't be cruel to whomever I want and who I don't want."

"Some people even say that they can work for three yuan a day just to earn a ticket home by the end of the year."

"Some people say..."

Before he finished speaking, Wu Yuan interrupted: "Don't listen to what they say, watch what they do."

"The fifth master said so too."

Fifth Master Qiao took the Hua Zi from Wu Yuan and allowed Zhao Baojun to order it with quick eyes and hands: "You kid, you are still too young. Don't you know the principle of not being kind to the army? Those people just said it nicely,

In fact, I’m not sure what it is.”

"Most of our masters from the countryside are honest and kind-hearted. But there are also mangy dogs and hob meat. Once they get involved, they will cause constant trouble. However, our decoration company has many people, so we are not afraid of them."

The day passed quickly.

When Wu Yuan returned home at night, it was already close to eight o'clock.

As soon as the key was inserted into the door, the door behind him opened. The professor who had said hello before pushed up his tortoiseshell glasses and invited him warmly: "Are you free? Come over for a drink?"

Wu Yuan turned around and said, "The invitation from a great professor is hard to refuse."

Then he asked again: "Sister-in-law is at home, don't disturb her?"

The great professor waved his hand directly and said, "Your sister-in-law has gone out to set up a stall, and I am the only one in the family."

Wu Yuan conveniently locked the door again, turned around and entered the opposite door.

The layout of the door opposite is almost the same as that of my own house. But there is relatively no decoration, and everything is still the same as it was in the 1970s.

The green skirt and white walls are peeling off in many places.

The furniture is also very simple in style, giving it a rustic feel.

The great professor closed the door and said: "The conditions at home are average and cannot be compared with your home. Your home was built by Professor Wang and Professor Li who spent many years of their savings."

Wu Yuan changed the topic and introduced himself with a smile: "Wu Yuan, from the countryside in northern Jiangsu."

The big professor's eyes lit up, he took Wu Yuan's hand and said: "What a coincidence, my wife is also from Northern Jiangsu. My name is Lu Wenqing, I work in architecture in Tongji, and I was just promoted to associate professor. So don't talk about big professor anymore, I'm still

Not qualified."

"What a coincidence, Professor Lu, you are the son-in-law of Jiangsu Province, and we are half fellow villagers."

"That's right, that's right, my fellow countrymen are in tears when they see each other. Sit down quickly!"

As he spoke, Lu Wenqing fished out a half bottle of liquor from the corner of the kitchen. The label had long been torn off.

There was no wine in sight.

Then he took half a plate of peanuts from the pot, which had just been boiled.

Plus three tea eggs.

"Brother Wu, this is how we order food at home, don't think it's too shabby!"

Wu Yuan waved his hand: "Professor Lu, I have already had dinner anyway. This wine is considered a midnight snack. But for you, drinking old wine on an empty stomach is not good for your health. How about I go down and bring up two dishes?"

Lu Wenqing grabbed Wu Yuan and said: "No, the tea eggs are enough."

Wu Yuan sighed, this old man is really a breeze.

Just have this for dinner.

Lu Wenqing picked up the wine bottle and split the remaining white wine in half with Wu Yuan.

I poured it back and forth many times to make sure it was evenly divided.

Then he capped the wine bottle and said expectantly: "Brother Wu, try what I have collected for many years. I have never been willing to drink it."

Wu Yuan picked up the cup, took a sip, smacked it again, and then said: "Lao Baigan?"

"Brother Wu, you really know how to drink! Let's take a sip first."

The two glasses met and the two men, who were smoking across the balcony on a starry night, started drinking for the first time.

After one bite.

Wu Yuan picked up a peanut, chewed it slowly in his mouth, and looked at everything in the room.

Although the decoration is a bit old, the certificates on the wall and the trophies on the top of the cabinet all illustrate Professor Lu's talent.

"Professor Lu, I heard that there are four architectural giants in China: Tsinghua University, Tongji, NTU and Tianda University. You are an associate professor of Tongji Architecture, and you must be well-known in the industry. I'm disrespectful."

Originally, Wu Yuan wanted to flatter the professor.

Who would have thought that after saying this, Lu Wenqing sighed directly and said: "Xiang Dangdang is useless! To tell you the truth, brother Wu, I sell tea eggs at the night market, and my monthly income is more than what I make."

.When there’s a quarrel at home, as a man, I can’t hold my head high!”

Wu Yuan raised his glass and said: "When the two of us quarreled, it was all nonsense. My sister-in-law has no ill intentions. We women in Northern Jiangsu are all hard-working, capable and hard-working people. We can sometimes have a bad temper, but we definitely care about our family."

Lu Wenqing and Wu Yuan touched each other, took another sip and said, "To be honest, when she scolded me like that, I wasn't angry, I just felt incompetent. But I really can't live without the three-foot podium.

I am also conflicted."

At this time, Wu Yuan took out two cigarettes from his pocket.

In order to save Professor Lu’s face, he didn’t even take out his cigarette case.

Passing it to the other person's mouth, it lit up the smoke. Lu Wenqing took a puff and turned to look at the trademark on the cigarette.

"Good guy, Brother Wu, do you usually smoke Huazi?"

Wu Yuan said casually: "I also received this from my clients. As you know, those who do decoration in Shanghai are all rich people."

Lu Wenqing nodded muffledly and started talking again.

From national affairs, talking about colleagues going abroad. From daily teaching, talking about daily necessities.

Wu Yuan came to a conclusion after hearing this.

It’s not easy to do scientific research these days.

No wonder I always meet Lao Lu smoking alone on the balcony in the middle of the night.

Before I knew it, two hours had passed.

Until there was a sound of keys behind him, and a woman in an apron came back carrying a pick.
