The rivers have been running for several days, but they have not felt the slightest fatigue, and they are still excited when they sit on the bus. confessed his heart in front of the secretary, and once again ignited the passion for dying for the country before the war. The words and words on the book of invitation have condensed into a spiritual symbol that will always belong to that era, inspiring him to go through a generous and magnificent life road. Now, the country is changing with each passing day, in such a competitive and challenging background, he is fortunate to have found a stage of his own life, determined to show his life charm and social value on this stage, and finally realize the life ambition that he originally thought had been extinguished.

The bus stopped at the station. When he returned to the factory, he first had to pass through Lao Zhang's acquisition station, and he was dumbfounded: I don't know when the acquisition station was no longer a matter of people -- it had changed hands? Lao Zhang's two sons and several children were gone, and they were replaced by a young couple. The rhubarb who was tied up kept wagging his tail when he saw the river water, humming in his mouth, as if he was telling something?

The young man stopped what he was doing, "You're Boss Jiang, right?"

"Ah, it's Lao Zhang's good friend. What's going on?"

The young man handed over a cigarette, "Lao Zhang asked me to tell you that he has returned to his hometown in Shandong, and gave me this acquisition station, please take care of Boss Jiang in the future." ”

Jiang Heshui asked eagerly: "Do you know why?" Lao Zhang said that he didn't say it, and he couldn't come back?"

The young man shook his head, as if he was choking on something.

The desolation of sorrow hit my heart, and the rivers and rivers and Lao Zhang can be called friends in distress, especially Zhang's sister-in-law, who is a person who is willing to stick to love and righteousness. They left in such a hurry, and they didn't even have time to say hello, there must have been something that could not be bypassed?, his face was gloomy, and he touched Rhubarb's head.

"This dog is always grinning at us, it's scary. I wanted to kill it, but I couldn't bear it, and I felt sorry for Lao Zhang. Seeing that it is very hot for you, take it back to the nursing home, and I will raise another one. The lad said.

Jiang Heshui dissolved the rhubarb's rope noose, "Lao Zhang must have some difficulties, if you tell me, maybe I can help him." ”

The young man squeaked and was really embarrassed: "It's not that I don't want to tell you, it's just that Lao Zhang told me not to talk nonsense." ”

"You and Lao Zhang have known each other for a long time?"

The young man nodded, thought for a while and said, "I see that your relationship with Lao Zhang is not ordinary. Well, I'll give you some of them. He pointed to Xiaolinzi's factory, "Why did Lao Zhang leave? ”

What does it have to do with the factory? What does it have to do with the factory before it opens? Could it be that Xiao Linzi has some problems in the disposal of waste products? He was confused and felt that it was not good to ask any more questions, so he took his leave.

The young man watched him limp with Rhubarb in his hands, his overly loose coat, as if it might fall to the ground at any moment......

As soon as he walked through the doors of the factory, everything was struck by the fact that the weeds and waste equipment were gone, and the exterior of all the facilities had been cleaned up. The willows on both sides of the factory road are more and more eye-catching, and in a few days they will compete with each other to bring infinite vitality here.

Xiao Linzi's car was parked in the carport, and Jiang Heshui bolted the rhubarb to an iron pillar next to the car, and then went to the main workshop. The more than 20 laid-off workers recruited before were all busy, and they were all very enthusiastic when they met him. The storage areas of different states in the workshop are framed by lines drawn with yellow paint, and as soon as the equipment is in place, it is done. In the machine repair room, the auxiliary equipment that came for nothing has been restored. There are also cafeterias, dormitories, and ...... All the planning results were so satisfying. This kid is really good! He really praised Xiao Linzi wholeheartedly.

Although a two-story building next to the guard room is not spectacular, it is available as a company's seven functional departments. The general manager's office is none other than Xiaolinzi, which is also settled by Jiang Heshui before pushing back and forth. The furnishings in the interior are pure according to the standards of river water. Xiao Linzi took advantage of him to go out and make cooked rice.

At this time, Kobayashi was reviewing a "procurement implementation plan", with a look of ambition. When he inadvertently found the river standing in front of him, there was a burst of ecstasy, and the two actually hugged each other.

"Oh mom! Why did you just come back? But you think about me badly! This is really a secretary with a doctor, and he does everything he can to draw money from the bottom of the kettle. ”

Jiang Heshui knew that most of him was a joke, "I've seen it all, and the planning is very good, like a thing." These days have taken you out. He said as he looked at the furnishings in front of him, "You're going too far, aren't you?"

Xiao Linzi smiled, "It's all for nothing." He understood everything he said, and then he said everything that had happened in the past few days......

Since the river left, Xiao Linzi immediately organized dozens of people who had been hired, and divided labor according to each person's strengths, so that everyone's potential could be brought into play. He sold all the things he didn't use, and made a net profit of more than 100,000 yuan inside and out, which just offset the labor, equipment maintenance and administrative expenses before it was put into production. Mr. Zhang was responsible for the procurement of equipment instead of Jiang River Water.

Xiao Linzi is even more proud that these laid-off workers are exactly what he expected: not only are they well-rounded, but they are also good at bearing hardships and standing hard work, although they are slightly older. But what if you're young? It's more and more of a pleasure-seeker, and it's getting harder and harder to train now—maybe it's a scrap-making genius.

Jiang Heshui's office has a sign of deputy general manager, and its office equipment is the same as that of Xiaolinzi. "Why are you making me so luxurious here? He visibly looked upset.

Xiao Linzi had a smile on his face, "Brother, just spare me." Besides, didn't I make a note too?"

Jiang Heshui looked at his slippery look, "Okay, I remember this, and I have hidden the notes, so I'm not afraid of you playing tricks when the time comes." ”

Xiao Linzi led him to the business manager's office again, which was Mr. Zhang's position. Mr. Zhang has been on a business trip for the past few days, and he is on his way to escort the equipment.

"Hey, Lao Zhang's family has returned to their hometown in Shandong, do you know?" Jiang Heshui suddenly remembered this thing.

"I know," Xiao Linzi replied very simply, and said, "I went to him that day, thinking that he was an expert in selling scrap, but he was gone." The new guy told me that they had gone back to their hometown. I was really busy at the time, and I didn't take it to heart – why?"

Jiang Heshui looked at him suspiciously, "The new boss said that Lao Zhang's return to Shandong has something to do with our factory, and the thief is sure." ”

Xiao Linzi was pierced by his eyes, "It's pure nonsense! Seriously, I went to him for help that day, just looking at your face, and I wanted to give him some good. ”

"Surely you didn't snub him?"

"Isn't your friend my friend, you still don't understand who I am? Even if you offend her, it won't even be that family business, right?"

Jiang Heshui felt that it made sense. Lao Zhang's matter really made him too concerned, especially Sister-in-law Zhang. He was smoking a cigarette and suddenly remembered what Lao Zhang had said, could it be ......?

"When will Mr. Zhang come back?"

"As soon as I arrive the day after tomorrow, I'll be waiting for him here. Xiao Linzi had a doubt in his heart.

"As long as it's not because of you," Jiang Heshui looked at Xiao Linzi and said with certainty, "Then it has something to do with him." Do you remember what I told you? Sister-in-law Zhang has two adopted sons who went to college, and after graduation, they have disappeared from the world?"

"That's right. But it's not like it?" Xiao Linzi said that he didn't believe it was true, "Doesn't he know that Lao Zhang and his family are here?

"I don't know. Jiang Heshui told Xiao Linzi: "Lao Zhang and his family only took over this acquisition station two years ago, and they used to make a living by scavenging waste in the northern suburbs. ”

"Oh," Xiao Linzi suddenly realized. Then he was a little angry: "Damn, this is too inhumane, it's just a grudge to repay virtue!" Xiao Linzi thought about it again and hurriedly said, "Hey, could there be someone else or some other reason?"

Jiang Heshui shook his head and said, "No—all the workers were personally recruited by me, and the family backgrounds are as clear as water, and that old Li Tou has always been good with him, let alone the two of us—it must be him!" Leaning slightly, he added, "Yes." He has an identity and status now, but this is only his present after all. It was Zhang's sister-in-law who gave him a complete humanity with hard work, but unexpectedly, he built a crippled personality for himself. Sister-in-law Zhang is too kind, since she can raise her as an adult and provide for college, she will definitely satisfy his vanity again at any cost. Jiang Heshui said a little emotionally.

"If that's the case, they must have taken care of it!, then? What do you want to do next?" Xiao Linzi said, but he had other plans in his heart.

"No, you can't just pull it down. When he comes back, I'll have to take care of him. If it is true, I have to seek justice for Lao Zhang and his family. "The rivers and rivers swear by it.

"But right now, we still expect him to serve food, if it is smashed, it will have a great impact on us. Kobayashi voiced his concerns.

Jiang Heshui thought for a while, "That's the same, now it's really numb without him." Anyway, we can be more careful in the future, this kind of person can do anything. He reminded Xiao Linzi extraordinarily.

Xiao Linzi smiled reassuringly, "Put this matter on hold for now, and then seize the opportunity to settle accounts with him later." ”

"That's the only way to do it - but, when the factory goes smoothly in the future, I still have to bring Lao Zhang's family back. They have been kind to me, and they will never forget what they say. "Jiang Heshui said so, very sincere.

"What's the matter, there are too many things for the two of them to do. It's worth being kind to such a good person!" Xiao Linzi readily agreed. He remembered another pleasant thing, dragged Jiang Heshui back to his office, and took out the "business license" that had been done from the drawer.

Jiang Heshui took it and smiled, obviously full of joy. It turned out that in order to name the factory, the two argued several times but couldn't settle down. As a result, he Xiaolinzi was good at advocating, and finally named the factory "Suiyuan Furniture Co., Ltd."

Xiao Linzi said proudly: "This is your girl's name, there should be nothing to say, right?"

"Isn't that your girl, too? ”

The two laughed and were very happy.

In the evening, after the bell rang, Jiang Heshui entrusted the rhubarb to a cook in the cafeteria. On the way back, he sat in Xiaolinzi's car without saying a word, and Lao Zhang's family said goodbye without saying goodbye, always entangled in his heart.

In fact, the reason for Lao Zhang's departure has been guessed by Jiang Heshui. Ever since his brothers took down the factory, Lao Zhang has been thinking about helping as much as possible. That afternoon, the day after Jiang Heshui left for Beijing, he went to the "Suiyuan Factory" and froze at the door of Xiao Linzi's office, recognizing Mr. Zhang at a glance. At that time, Xiao Linzi was talking with him intently, and Lao Zhang quietly left after relieving himself.

He told his wife what he had seen - Sister-in-law Zhang was uncontrollable for a while, and she didn't know whether she was happy or sad, and she was afraid that the old man would look away, so she went out with her scarf.

The moment she walked to the gate of Suiyuan Factory, her two legs suddenly stopped obeying. What if he didn't admit me? Didn't he just leave home because he hated me?...... The more she thought about it, the more she was in a hurry, and subconsciously covered most of her face with a scarf. She thought again, if he really didn't recognize himself as a mother, wouldn't he have sprinkled salt on his wounds again? She thought so, but walked towards the embankment behind her.

She sat down on the edge of the embankment with her hands in her hands, staring at the factory gate opposite with a pair of bitter eyes, waiting in the slightly cold wind, completely unaware that there were pedestrians walking by in front of her and behind her.

About half an hour later, Xiao Linzi and Mr. Zhang walked out of the office back and forth, as if they were going to do something? Mr. Zhang's face happened to look at Sister-in-law Zhang on the opposite embankment, making her see it clearly.

Sister-in-law Zhang didn't move, but her heart was beating violently, watching the two get into the car. The car drove out of the factory door and turned right, passed by the acquisition station and turned right again, and disappeared.

"People look like dogs, and they really come out of it. Sister-in-law Zhang thought to herself. A long drama that has been performed for more than 20 years......

I don't know when, Lao Zhang was already standing beside her, knowing that she felt uncomfortable. "Strange Lengdi, shall I go back?" he helped her up.

Sister-in-law Zhang rubbed her eyes vigorously with the corner of her scarf, and silently followed Lao Zhang down the embankment. There are only a few steps away from the acquisition, but every step she takes is so heavy, thanks to the support of her wife.

"That's my life, admit it, who will let me fiddle with the rags?" said Lao Zhang.

Sister-in-law Zhang glanced at him sideways, "I picked up all the things that people don't want, otherwise where did he come from today?"

Late at night, the two of them talked about the past for most of the night, and they couldn't sleep. Lao Zhang mentioned the matter of returning to his hometown again, and Sister-in-law Zhang accepted it with silence.

"His grandmother's! Why don't you hate him at all?"

"Is it easy for me to raise it single-handedly?

"I've been guilty of a lifetime with you stupid. ”

......

After more than 20 years of hard work, the two of them can be regarded as having a small savings; when they return to their hometown, even if they can't catch up with the well-off, they can be much better than in their previous life.
