Chapter 33: Anecdotes from the Wine Table

After getting off work at noon, Geng Zhiyuan was about to go downstairs to the canteen to eat, when Wang Ping suddenly stopped him and said, "Xiao Geng, Lao Liang has a treat, let's eat together." ”

"Oh!?" Geng Zhiyuan saw that he only called himself, worried that the teacher had an opinion, turned his head to look at Xia Su, she smiled slightly, "You didn't call me again, you go eat yours." ”

Wang Ping hurriedly explained: "At the end of the year, the project team has a meal. ”

Compared with the unit canteen, the food cooked in the restaurant is definitely more delicious and delicious, and there is no need to spend money on his own, Geng Zhiyuan naturally couldn't refuse, so he followed Wang Ping downstairs happily.

Liang Guangyuan's place of hospitality is Yangzi Restaurant, which is located on Daxue Road to the north of the design institute, not far from three or four hundred meters. When Wang Ping and Geng Zhiyuan arrived, the room was already full.

Liang Guangyuan beckoned them to sit down, and seeing that Geng Zhiyuan was not familiar with everyone present, he introduced them one by one: "This is He Gong of the equipment major, Wang Gong of the structure major, Guo Gong of the construction major, Jiang Gong of the automatic control major, and those two are Qi Gong of the electrical major and Yang Gong of the general drawing major." ”

Geng Zhiyuan nodded his head one by one and said, "I am Geng Zhiyuan, a new craftsman this year, please take care of the old comrades." ”

After hearing this, Qi Yuanhao pointed at him and suddenly realized: "Oh, you are the little Geng who called me last time." ”

Geng Zhiyuan saw that it was a white and pure short and fat middle-aged man who spoke, similar to the image of Qi Yuanhao in his imagination, and responded with a smile: "Qi Gong, it's me." ”

He Lan and Guo Ping are ladies, women naturally like to be matchmakers, seeing Geng Zhiyuan's sunny and handsome guy who is more than 1.8 meters tall, he asked with concern: "Xiao Geng, do you have a partner?"

Geng Zhiyuan had a headache, women like to inquire about young people's private affairs, regardless of their educational background or work. Fortunately, he already has a girlfriend, so he doesn't have to worry about how to deal with them. He calmly replied, "There already is." ”

"Oh, where do you work?" As soon as they heard that Geng Zhiyuan had a girlfriend, the two women became even more interested.

"Are you tall?"

"Are you good-looking?"

"Where is home?" ......

The two women threw out a series of questions like cannons, forcing Geng Zhiyuan to stammer, and he was speechless for a while.

Seeing this, Liang Guangyuan laughed and said, "Everyone is here, let's start now!"

There are many rules on the wine table in Ningcheng, half of them are the main escort with three wines, the deputy escort with two wines, and the rest of the time you can play freely.

Geng Zhiyuan drinks very lightly, and he usually doesn't drink a drop of alcohol, but he also knows that he can't stop drinking on this occasion, so he chose beer with interest.

The wine has passed three rounds, and the dishes have passed five flavors. Geng Zhiyuan had already drunk seven or eight glasses of beer, only to feel that the wine was surging up, his mind was clouded, and his face was already red like a persimmon. And the other people at the wine table were still talking and laughing, and there was no drunkenness at all.

When I was in college, I heard the teachers say that the employees of the Provincial Chemical Design Institute drank a lot, and I saw it with my own eyes today, and the rumors are true. Geng Zhiyuan knew that he would soon get drunk if he drank like this, so he quietly lengthened the interval between drinking, and at the same time drank more tea and ran to the toilet, finally supporting the completion of all the toasting procedures that should be taken.

By the end of the banquet, with more than 20 glasses of wine in his stomach, Geng Zhiyuan was already dizzy and his steps were vain, and he could barely maintain his consciousness and walk independently. Seeing this, Liang Guangyuan smiled and said: "Xiao Geng still has to practice a lot of alcohol, you can't drink with those people in the factory, they drink a lot more than us." ”

"Hmm!" Geng Zhiyuan unconsciously agreed, feeling that these words didn't feel like they came out of his own mouth.

Wang Ping's drinking volume is also average, but fortunately, he has been on the battlefield for a long time, and he is good at cheating, and his situation is much better than Geng Zhiyuan. He nodded sympathetically: "Xiao Geng is still too honest, pour less when you pour that wine, and leave a little bottom when you drink." How are you, full of drinks, can you not get drunk?"

"I don't usually drink alcohol, and the amount of alcohol I drink is ...... Very small. Geng Zhiyuan was saying that, his feet were soft and he stumbled and almost fell to the ground. Wang Ping's hands were quick, and he grabbed him and said, "Look at you, drink less if you drink less, so what are you really doing?"

"Uh-huh......" Geng Zhiyuan followed behind the two of them, returned to the office in a daze, and fell asleep as soon as he sat on the chair.

When he woke up, the alcohol had faded, Geng Zhiyuan ran to the toilet and came back, and found that the time was more than three o'clock. Xia Su saw him return to normal and said with a smile: "Xiao Geng, come with me for dinner in the evening." It's the New Year, and the project team gets together. ”

"Ah......!" Geng Zhiyuan said in his heart: "No wonder the old comrades in the courtyard drink a lot of alcohol, according to this three-day two-end drinking method, no matter how small the amount of alcohol is, it can be practiced big." ”

The place where Xia Su treats guests is also Yangzi Restaurant, this hotel is relatively close to the provincial institute, and the grade is also appropriate, which is the first choice for the design institute to gather and entertain. Most of the guests invited by Xia Su were women, except for Geng Zhiyuan, Pang Dong and Ye Shoufeng, an old comrade in the craft room, the rest were women.

There is a way that three women in one play, five or six women of all ages get together, and the chatter is very lively. Geng Zhiyuan and Pang Dong sat together and watched the group of chatting women, but they could only look at each other helplessly.

Ye Shoufeng is a taciturn person, he was admitted to the hospital in the same year as Jia Rui, although the relationship between the two is good, their personalities are very different. In the hospital, he has always been known for his loyalty and honesty, and he is also practical and capable in his work, and he is the most effective helper of the Xia Su project team.

"That's how women are. Ye Shoufeng looked at the little brothers sitting on the side and smiled: "You will know when you get married, women like to get together and chat, and once they chat, they are not finished." No matter how beautiful and cultured she is, she is all like a bear. ”

There were ready-made facts in front of them, and Geng Zhiyuan and Pang Dong nodded in admiration.

All the ladies present, in addition to Xia Su and Lin Yin in an office, there is also Guo Ping, who just had dinner together at noon. The other people are Zheng Xiu, who majored in automation, Xu Hong, who majored in electrical engineering, and Yang Fang, who majored in public works. Yang Fang is not married and lives in a single dormitory, so although Geng Zhiyuan has never dealt with her, he is already familiar with her face.

The design work of the design institute implements a matrix management model, each professional office is a permanent management organization, and the project team engaged in specific design work is a temporary team.

The business department of the design institute is responsible for soliciting projects, and the design projects recruited through various channels are handed over to the design department, and the design department designates a design manager to be fully responsible for the design management of the project, and then he selects candidates from various professional rooms to form a project team.

The design manager has been working for a long time, and he has a group of professional designers who are comfortable with him, and gradually formed a core design team headed by him.

Most of these people invited by Liang Guangyuan and Xia Su belong to this nature.

Although there were more women at the table, it was annoying, but if they talked too much, they drank relatively little, Geng Zhiyuan and Pang Dong took the opportunity to feast and enjoy a delicious meal.

"When will we be able to divide the house in the courtyard?" After being full of wine and food, Xu Hong suddenly complained.

Zheng Xiu said with the same feeling: "Yes, I have been waiting for three years, and the children have been born, and I haven't seen the shadow of the house yet." ”

Geng Zhiyuan heard the words "divide the house", and quickly pricked up his ears and listened attentively.

"I'm afraid I don't have much hope lately. Xia Su sighed: "We are not as good as other chemical research institutes, how good their leaders are, if they have money, they will build a house first, and as long as the new workers get married, they can get a house." ”

Lin Yin looked at Geng Zhiyuan and Pang Dong and said with a smile: "You two are in the wrong place, if you go to the research institute, you don't have to worry about the house when you get married." ”

Geng Zhiyuan asked, "Isn't there a house in our courtyard?"

"Alas!" Xu Hong sighed and said: "The leader of our hospital doesn't know what to think, since the three dormitories were built in 90, he has never built a house, and the students who have been admitted to the hospital after 93 have not been assigned a house." ”

"What are you sighing for?" Zheng Xiu pouted beside him: "No matter how you live, you still live in the house of the design institute, and I can only live in my mother's place." ”

"Huh!?" Geng Zhiyuan was a little confused, didn't Xu Hong say that she hadn't been assigned a house? Why did Zheng Xiu say that she lived in a house in the courtyard?

Xu Hong's cheeks were slightly red, and she said, "What is my house called? It's a broken house, and it's awkward to die." ”

Another new term, which smashed Geng Zhiyuan into a blindfold.

"It's two families living in one house. Pang Dong saw that he was confused, and explained quietly: "Xu Hong lives in the house rented to them by our hospital, and he charges ten yuan a month for rent, which is equivalent to living in vain. ”

"No matter how awkward it is, it's better than me not having a house. Zheng Xiu teased: "At least you don't have a house to live in for a few dollars." ”

Xia Su saw that Xu Hong's expression was unhappy, and hurriedly interrupted: "This year's workers' congress will strive to let the employee representatives mention the matter of building a house again. ”

Guo Ping shook his head and said: "I mentioned it more than once, do those leaders of our institute listen? Every time they talk about research and research, why don't they learn from the leaders of other people's chemical research institutes?"

"No, let's earn more money and buy it ourselves, we don't need to beg them!" Yang Fang said domineeringly.

Xu Hong glanced at her: "Are you stupid? The house sold outside has a better location of one or two thousand one square meters." Besides, we don't have to spend a penny on the house in the courtyard, so why should we spend that unjust amount of money to buy it?"

"Didn't Dean Yue say at the meeting that there will be no such thing as welfare housing in the future, and housing commercialization will have to be bought with money. Yang Fang was unconvinced.

Xu Hong said disdainfully: "Listen to him? He also said that in the future, we can all drive a car, is it possible?

"Drive a car!?" Geng Zhiyuan said in his heart: "This Dean Yue really dares to say that if the people of the design institute want to drive a car, I am afraid that they will have to wait until the next life." ”

"Lao Yue sees far, and his vision is ahead of us. Lin Yin interjected: "Originally, the computers he said were assigned to individuals, and the office was equipped with air conditioning, didn't this all be fulfilled one by one? Maybe in the future, we will really be able to drive a car." ”

"Oh, my forest worker!" Xu Hong exclaimed: "Do you really believe him? A car is at least 100,000 yuan, and you have to throw away tens of thousands of yuan a year just to maintain a car, you say we only earn a few dollars a year? Can you afford it?"

"It's ...... too," Lin Yin sighed and said no more.
