Rebirth of the Auto Giant

Chapter 426 Li Chengyi’s supermarket is about to open

Yanjing, at noon one day in late July, the production base of Tang Dynasty Power Company.

Four heavy-duty container trucks with trailers slowly drove into the production base. Several drivers got off. When Liu Xingguo from the logistics department saw the cars coming back, he came out with dozens of people from the logistics department: "Quick, move into the warehouse first. Be careful.

, these are what the boss wants." Liu Xingguo commanded his men.

"Leader, what's on this car?" Zhou Deyi looked at the four containers and asked, "Why are there so many?"

Afraid that everyone would be bumped and damaged during the move, Liu Xingguo looked at everyone and said after hearing Zhou Deyi's words: "These are gold bricks. The boss finally got them back. In order to get these things, the boss directly destroyed the entire gold brick manufacturing factory."

I bought it. In ancient times, this thing could only be used by emperors. You must be careful. If you break one, you know the consequences."

When everyone heard that it was used by the emperor in the past, they had to be careful.

Fortunately, there were many people, so four containers of 2,682 gold bricks were delivered quickly, and employees from other departments also came to help.

When we moved to the end, the driver said: "You have to be careful with the last 28 pieces and store them separately. These are gold bricks left over from the Ming and Qing Dynasties. Gold is precious." These 28 pieces are stored in the innermost part, as a whole.

The gold bricks are all wrapped with something.

Everyone moved one piece every month, as carefully as if they were holding a newborn baby. Fortunately, there was no problem in the end.

After the things were moved, the driver captain handed a note to Liu Xingguo and said: "Director Liu, here are the laying methods and precautions for the gold bricks. You give it to the boss." The note was from the director of the gold brick factory.

Zeng Deyu gave it to him, which contained instructions on how to lay gold bricks in ancient times and precautions.

The laying method of gold bricks has certain requirements, and it cannot be like ceramic tiles.

When laying gold bricks in ancient buildings, they must first be cut and processed according to size so that the buried ground can fit perfectly.

Then, the bricks are laid and smoothed through several processes such as flattening, mud laying, springing, and trial laying. Finally, the buried gold bricks are soaked in raw tung oil to complete the work. Each bricklayer and two strong workers can only do this every day.

Pack five pieces.

This was reserved for the royal family in ancient times. This was done slowly and carefully, but now it doesn't need to be so strict.

"Okay, thank you for your hard work, Master Wang." Liu Xingguo collected the note and said.

"Hey, no matter whether it is hard work or not, it is all work, not to mention that the Brick Factory is also owned by our company. There are all colleagues from the company. The reception is okay and the colleagues are also polite." Master Wang's enthusiasm for Zeng Deyu

I felt a little indebted in my heart, and secretly decided that I would definitely bring some products from Yanjing next time I go back.

If it doesn't apply to other units, it's the same company, so it's different.

Liu Xingguo checked the gold bricks in the warehouse and found that all 28 gold bricks were placed separately. After finding that nothing was wrong, he went to the fifth floor.

Zhang Long and Zhao Hu saw Liu Xingguo, director of the logistics department, coming and let him in directly.

"Thank you, Brother Zhang and Brother Zhao." Liu Xingguo said respectfully to the two of them.

Although I am the director of a department, I am the boss's bodyguard and secretary, earning tens of thousands of dollars a month. I don't have the capital to win in front of these two people.

The general was never good at dealing with others, so the two nodded.

The door opened automatically and Liu Xingguo walked in. "Mr. Wang, the batch of gold bricks has arrived." Liu Xingguo said, looking at Wang Shi behind the office.

"Oh?" Wang Shi stood up and walked out from behind.

Liu Xingguo handed the note to Wang Shi and said, "This is from the Brick Factory. It contains some methods and precautions for laying Bricks."

"Okay." Wang Shi put it away, and then asked the two brothers Zhou Deyi and Zhou Chuanxiong, "How are Zhou Deyi and Zhou Deyi doing at work?"

"The performance is very good. It can be seen that the two of them are specialized in logistics. They are very strong and willing to work hard. They are not afraid of hardship or tiredness. They are eager to do everything and can chat with everyone." Liu Xingguo was very fond of the two of them.

satisfy.

"That's good. Their education is lower, but it's enough to be a logistics worker. You can learn what you don't understand, but your character cannot be changed," Wang Shi said.

"Okay, go and do your work."

Not long after Liu Xingguo came out of Wang Shi's office, Wang Shi also came to the warehouse to check the batch of gold bricks, and then looked at the note in his hand. Wang Shi picked up the big brother and typed it to Li Chengyi.

"Brother Wang, what do you want from me?" Li Chengyi asked.

"Where?" Wang Shi asked.

"Opposite your company, we are supervising the renovation. Is there anything wrong?"

Li Chengyi heard Wang Shi's idea of ​​building a supermarket and spent money to buy a piece of land from Wang Shi to start building a five-story supermarket. He accelerated the progress. With enough funds, it has now entered the final decoration stage.

"Wait, I'll come find you." Wang Shi hung up the phone.

Two bodyguards followed closely and came downstairs. Li Chengyi was already waiting on the first floor.

"Brother Wang, what are the important things that cannot be discussed on the phone?" Li Chengyi has talked about everything on the phone since he met Wang Shi. This time...

"Look at this." Wang Shi handed the note in his hand to the other party and said.

…?

Isn't it some hidden secret?

Li Chengyi took the note and looked at it, "This... Brother Wang, this gold brick is... do you have this treasure in your hand?"

"Well..." Wang Shi told him about his acquisition of the gold brick factory, "Do you know any better craftsmen who can help me lay the gold bricks? Those who need old skills." This is not a ceramic tile, it needs to be old stuff.

It needs to be equipped with experienced craftsmen. Otherwise, if it is not laid well, it will expand due to thermal expansion and contraction, and the loss will be great.

This is not just buying those tiles when they are broken, especially these 28 pieces. They are treasures left over from the Ming and Qing dynasties. It is true to say they are national treasures.

"Brother, you have this good thing, why don't you tell me, go, take me to have a look, these are gold bricks, they used to be reserved for the royal family, but now they are the ones laid in the Hall of Supreme Harmony. They have been smooth for hundreds of years.

Ru Xin, I didn't expect to be caught by you, brother." Li Chengyi is an old bj and an antique collector. He knows these gold bricks well, but he has only seen those in the Hall of Supreme Harmony in the Forbidden City and has never seen them without paving.

"First tell me if you can help me find someone, otherwise, there's no way."

"Okay, have you forgotten that I am an old bj? I know a few masons with old craftsmanship. I promise to help you do a good job without charging any money. Do you believe it or not?" Li Chengyi said.

No charge?

"You are capable." Wang Shi turned and walked away.

"Be careful with your decoration, don't make mistakes." Li Chengyi pointed at the decoration master and said, then followed Wang Shi with a smile, crossed the street and entered Tang Dynasty Power Company.

Li Chengyi has known Wang Shi for so long, and this is the first time he has entered the Tang Dynasty Power Company compound.

The neat streets are all paved with cement, and different types of flowers and plants are planted around a square half the size of a football field in the middle. The aunties who are cleaners and gardeners are watering the flowers and plants.

Walking further inside, one after another Tang Dynasty heavy trucks drove out from the exit. Further inside, I saw a forklift transporting engines that had just left the factory to the inspection department for final factory inspection.

"Dingxin..." The two of them walked in. At this time, they heard a series of bells ringing in the sky above the company. This was the bell for getting off work at noon. Soon, workers from various workshops came out one after another with smiles, some went straight to the canteen, and some

When we arrived at the parking lot, there were rows of bicycles neatly arranged, and then we saw an army of bicycles rushing towards the company gate.

"Look at Brother Wang, how big the company is, and then think about yourself...how come the gap between people is so big?" Li Chengyi sighed inwardly as he looked at the bustling scene in the Tang Dynasty Power Compound.

A team of more than 60,000 people, what kind of scene is that?

Seeing so many people, Li Chengyi became more confident in his supermarket.

With such a large flow of people, it is difficult not to make money, and the employees of Tang Chao Dynamic Company are the richest people in the entire Forty-Nine City, and their consumption level is also high.

The two came to the warehouse.

"Is this... all of them?" Li Chengyi asked, looking at a warehouse full of gold bricks.

"Yes." Wang Shi replied.

"Are you sure this is a gold brick or not a brick?" Li Chengyi said.

"The front part was made later, but the craftsmanship and process are the same, so there is no difference, but the back part, the 28 pieces at the back are national treasures." Wang Shi said, tearing open the gold bricks on the front, and Li Chengzheng checked the ones on the side.

Seal, gently

He gently stroked the surface and said, "This feels delicate and good. It is indeed the same as the gold bricks in the Temple of Supreme Harmony." Then he tapped it lightly with a hammer, making a clanging sound like metal. "But it is modern, and it is also an imitation.

High imitation." Li Chengyi said.

"Look at these again." Wang Shi walked to the back and pointed at the 28 gold bricks.

Li Chengyi opened it, and the shiny gold bricks lay quietly, like a sleeping beauty, waiting for his sweetheart to touch him. Li Chengyi first looked at the seal on the side and found that it had Qianlong, Jiaqing, and Yongle Ming.

Seals of the Qing Dynasty, "Brother Wang, where did you get these treasures?" Li Chengyi asked with red eyes without looking back.

Li Chengyi is an antique collector, and he is very aware of the historical value of these treasures in front of him.

"Don't ask how I got it. I plan to spread these 28 pieces in the center of my lobby, and use the rest everywhere..." Wang Shi said.

"I have seen arrogance, but I have never seen such an arrogance. Do you know what this is? If you step on it like this, if this brick is left for decades and is kept in such complete condition and in such good condition, then

But gold of equal weight is about the same price." Li Chengyi said, "Then I will definitely walk in the lobby when I go to Brother Wang's house."

After Li Chengyi got over his addiction, the two of them came outside and asked, "Brother Wang, did you just say that this Brick Factory is still there?"

"Yes, all the processes are well preserved. The above ones are produced, but because they are purely manual, the output is limited." Wang Shi replied.

"Okay, I'll make a decision with you here first. When the time comes, be the first to give it to me. I'll go back and measure how much space I need for my home and then tell you." Li Chengyi said, "It can't be too expensive."

"Now I plan to take the high-end route. Do you think the price can be cheap?" Cheap is impossible. At most, I will give you the ex-factory price. As for the price, I haven't decided yet. "Now it's time for you to take me to meet those craftsmen.

Right?" Now that you've read the things, you should do my business when you come down.

"Okay, I'll take you to the homes of some old masons. They'll be happy to know."

The two of them, plus two bodyguards, Zhang Long and Zhao Hu, got into the Mantang car and arrived at their destination.

This is a large courtyard. It used to be a large family home, but now there are several families living in it, making it quite crowded.

"Uncle Yang, you didn't go to work today?" Li Chengyi walked into the yard and saw an old man in his sixties sitting under the eaves. Hearing Li Chengyi's voice, the old man opened his eyes and asked, "Why are you here today?

?”

"I brought you a business today, and it's a big business. You must have never done it before..." Li Chengcheng told the other party about the matter, and the other party suddenly became energetic.

"You did a good job this time. I'll take over this job. Boss Wang, you can give me whatever you want, as long as you leave all the work to me." There is another unknown secret about Uncle Yang's clay tile craftsmanship, that is, he

Our ancestors were the same old craftsmen who laid the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

That's why the old man was so energetic when he heard about the laying of gold bricks. Moreover, 28 of them were genuine pieces from the Ming and Qing Dynasties, which aroused the old man's interest even more. Even the price made Wang Shi look at it.

"Okay, I'll bother Uncle Yang. Let's start tomorrow. How about starting work tomorrow?" Wang Shi asked.

"No problem, I will go over to my house to measure the ground tomorrow morning..." Uncle Yang talked about some professional things, what materials were used, etc. He paid half of the wages first, and Wang Shi asked him to prepare these by himself. How much will it cost then?

The remaining balance will be paid after the project is completed.

The next morning, Uncle Yang came to the house with two young people, Uncle Yang's two children, and some cutting and masonry tools, and they got busy immediately.

Wang Shi asked Uncle Yang to hire four more people for help. He packed up all the antiques at home and put them in the collection room in the east cross courtyard. He also collected the furniture from the Ming and Qing Dynasties and put them in the east and west rooms. Then he started taking measurements.

Cutting, cutting, smoothing. Wang Shi asked the chef at home to cook meals for seven people.

The laying of gold bricks is a delicate job, and it will take at least two months to finish laying all the houses in the gate of the mansion.

Finally, Wang Shi felt that it took too long, so he asked Uncle Yang to find some more people. There were many masters, and the entire project was completed within a month.

The entire project was completed in early September.

All the rooms in the Wang family's mansion are paved with gold brick floors, coupled with the quaint courtyard, blue and white flowers from the Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties, furniture and other antiques, and the shiny gold brick floor. Apart from being smaller than the Hall of Supreme Harmony, there is no difference.

.

"Well, it's all done now." Wang Shi sat on the Grand Master's chair and looked around and said to himself with satisfaction.

Just as I was thinking about it, Li Chengyi came over.

"You still have good taste. Look at your room. It's full of antiques from top to bottom." Li Chengyi pointed at the blue and white porcelain on the shelf and the calligraphy and paintings on the wall, and then looked at the gold bricks at his feet and said with envy.

.

"My supermarket will open next Monday, and you must come and support me." Li Chengyi slowly sat down, "I don't dare to sit hard now, for fear that the brick will break."

"Don't be afraid. With your weight, you could break my floor if you sit on it." Wang Shi looked at the other party and said, "Why did you open so quickly?"

It's only been a little over a month and it's already starting to open up. Are you sure you're opening a supermarket and not a canteen?

"That's right, I have my own way of selling the goods. After the decoration is completed, it will be done very quickly and the manpower is ready." Li Cheng said proudly.

"It's important to make money." Li Chengyi has the experience of opening Qingshan Clothing City in the past. He has channels for goods. As long as the decoration is completed, he can open it soon.

"Now our company's employees are going to bleed." This supermarket is opened opposite the company. The main consumer group is the 60,000 employees of Tang Dynasty Power Company.
