At seven o'clock in the evening, Fei Po and Ge Liquan waited there on time according to the place agreed by Lu Dalin. After a while, Lu Dalin also came in a Beijing jeep. After the three met, Lu Dalin pointed to the building in front of him and said, "It's the building in front, let's go."

The three of them walked to the residential building, which was a newly built building, and Secretary Wang lived on the third floor.

Lu Dalin knocked on the door, and it was a middle-aged woman who opened the door. She wears a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, short hair, a fair face, a few wrinkles printed at the corners of her eyes, a tall figure, a well-proportioned body, a decent long-sleeved shirt, crisp pants, and a look in her forties. Let people know at a glance that she is an intellectual woman.

After opening the door, the middle-aged woman let the three of them into the house, and the middle-aged woman saw Lu Dalin and said, "Dalin hasn't come to my sister's house for a long time, is he angry with my sister." Dalin hurriedly said: "How dare you! I've been busy lately, so I don't have much time." ”

Subsequently, Lu Dalin introduced Ge Liquan and the fat woman to his sister. Lu Dalin saw that his brother-in-law was not at home, he relaxed, and he asked, "Brother-in-law hasn't come back yet?"

Sister Lu Dalin said: "Your brother-in-law called back and said that there was a dinner and he would come back after eating. ”

After sitting down, everyone began to chatter, and later Lu Dalin's sister and Ge Liquan talked about social security, Lu Dalin's sister said: "In the past few years, social security was not good, and many young people often fought. In recent years, there have been fewer such cases, and you police have made a great contribution!"

Ge Liquan said: "The 'strike hard' campaign in '83 has played a considerable role, but it is mainly that the state attaches great importance to it, and the leaders attach importance to it. ”

Lu Dalin interjected a few words from time to time, and the fat woman had to listen to it on the side. From a few sentences, it can be seen that Sister Lu Dalin is very talkative and speaks in a disciplined manner, and Ge Liquan feels a trace of admiration for this woman.

An hour had passed, and the outside door opened. Lu Dalin's brother-in-law, who was Secretary Wang, opened the door and entered the house, and Lu Dalin hurriedly greeted him and helped his brother-in-law get his bag and hang his coat.

At this time, Ge Liquan and the fat woman also stood up and looked at this Secretary Wang. When Secretary Wang saw that a guest was coming, he smiled at the guest, and then nodded again, indicating friendship.

Lu Dalin hurriedly introduced the two to this Secretary Wang, and the three of them exchanged a few words and sat down.

Lu Dalin's brother-in-law, Wang Minghai, is in his forties, 1.7 meters tall, slightly chubby, thinning hair, broad forehead, and full of style. It seemed that he had drunk a little wine, and he was slightly drunk, and he began to ask Sister Lu Dalin to pour tea. Seeing this, Lu Dalin got up and picked up the teacups of Ge Liquan and the fat woman, and he picked up the thermos and filled the two cups with water. After that, he gave his brother-in-law another cup and put it on the coffee table in front of Secretary Wang.

Secretary Wang took a sip of tea, didn't raise his head and said, "...... two of you came to my house?"

At this time, Ge Liquan was thinking about saying the incident, and when he heard Secretary Wang say this, he hurriedly said: "There is something wrong, I want to trouble Secretary Wang!"

Secretary Wang said proudly: "I know, there must be something to come to my house! Tell me about it?"

Ge Liquan said neatly: "My sister saw that your company's service company, the garment factory, is now closed, and the area is in a prosperous area, and she wants to contract it to be a hotel, so our brothers came to visit." ”

Secretary Wang said: "The report of the service company has been reported for more than a month, and because it is busy, the factory has not yet held a meeting to study how to deal with it." But the contracting ...... There is no precedent in our Chunming Machinery Factory!"

At this time, Ge Liquan smiled and said: "Secretary Wang, I read the article written on the reference news, and now the reform of state-owned enterprises in the south has taken the lead, and it is allowed to contract the country!"

Secretary Wang frowned and said, "It should be said that the enterprise reform in our province has begun. However, at present, there are no major moves by state-owned enterprises, and there are no moves by other large enterprises, nor do they have ready-made experience. We're not sure about it right now!"

Sister Dalin interjected and said, "Contract, why can't you do it? Otherwise, more than 100 people from the garment factory will drink the northwest wind!"

Sister Dalin was a little excited, and after a pause, she continued: "Now many workers are leaving their jobs without pay, why do they go to the sea to do business? Isn't it because the company can't pay wages, even if they can, it's just that?"

Secretary Wang was speechless when asked, and Secretary Wang took another sip of tea and said: "This problem does exist, we as enterprises can only do things in accordance with policies, and reform must be done, but ......." At this he paused.

He looked at Ge Liquan and said, "Your sister's idea is very good, but can you arrange more than 100 workers? And most of them are old, weak, sick and some women!"

This question Ge Liquan and his sister really didn't think of, Ge Liquan glanced at his sister, and the fat woman said, "I can arrange a part." ”

Secretary Wang said: "Then how can we let them go home?"

The problem is frozen here, and there is really no good way to solve it. Secretary Wang said: "That's it today, you go back and think about it, I will sum it up with the factory director." Since you want to do it, we are discussing it with the relevant departments. ”

The three of them walked out of Secretary Wang's house, all silent, and Lu Dalin said when he got into the car: "It's okay, I'll find my sister tomorrow and cheer her up, my sister is a person who is keen on reform." Griffin nodded.

The fat woman returned home with a sad face. Caizi asked, "Didn't it work out?"

The fat woman said: "I don't think it can be done, Secretary Wang proposed that there are more than 100 workers in the garment factory who can't be arranged, and they are all old, weak, sick and disabled and women, how can I open a small hotel to digest these people!"

In this way, the fat woman spent more than a month in torment. That evening, the fat woman was startled by a knock on the door, and she asked, "Who?"

The knocker replied, "It's me, your eldest brother." ”

She listened carefully, it was her brother Griquan's voice, and the fat woman hurriedly opened the door. As Griffin entered the room, he slowly looked around the room.

Then he asked, "The house is very clean, what about the country boy?"

The fat woman said, "I haven't come back yet!"

"What is he doing now?"

It turned out that Ge Liquan didn't know that Caizi was working on the construction site, because Ge Liquan didn't have a good impression of Caizi at all, let alone cared about it. When the fat woman saw that her brother mentioned the talent, he was afraid of being "taught".

Hurriedly changed the topic and said: "Is there an eyebrow about the garment factory?"

Ge Liquan said: "I came for this matter, Lu Dalin called me, he said, the factory has held a meeting to study, decided to contract with foreign countries, and initially set three conditions: First, the affiliation belongs to Chunming Machinery Factory. Second, if the original workers are willing to stay in the original factory of their own volition, the contractor shall not refuse, and those who are unwilling to stay in the original factory may be transferred to another factory, and the retirees shall be paid by the service company. Third, the contract fee is 60,000 yuan per year, which is paid in advance before the end of each year. ”

The fat woman jumped up happily when she heard this, and now there is hope. At this time, Ge Liquan said: "Don't be happy too early, you have to bid for the society, and I don't know if there are any competitors!"

The fat woman naturally smiled and said, "With you and Lu Dalin, I'm not holding a handle!"

Ge Liquan said: "It is estimated that these three conditions may be announced tomorrow, and the registration will start in a week. ”

The two chatted for a while, and then the only man opened the door and entered the house. Seeing that Gregory was there, he didn't know how to speak, he didn't know what to call it, so he just nodded and smiled.

Ge Liquan scanned the young man in front of him with a pair of sharp eyes and said: "I haven't seen each other for two or three years, this kid has changed too much, this physique is much greater, and he has grown 10 centimeters taller." If I walk down the street, I don't recognize it. ”

The fat woman deliberately introduced the talented man and said, "This is the eldest brother, you have seen it." Let's change into clothes, wash our faces and eat, right?"

The purpose of the fat woman saying this is to let the talented man avoid his brother as much as possible, so that he will not ask this and that, and lest the talented man be embarrassed by himself.

The talented man went to the toilet to wash according to the fat woman's instructions, and Ge Liquan said to the fat woman with a kind of irony: "You have raised him well in the past two years!"

The fat woman said, "Aren't you tall when you were in your twenties?"

Gary asked the fat woman, "Where is he working?"

The fat woman said: "On the construction site. ”

Ge Liquan nodded, then got up and said, "I'm leaving, just wait for the news of the garment factory!"

At this time, Caizi had already washed his face and changed his clothes, and came out of the bathroom, and when he saw that Ge Liquan was leaving, he said to Ge Liquan: "Big brother, stay a little longer!"

This was the first time that the genius took the initiative to say to Greequan. Ge Liquan said: "No, you haven't eaten so late, so I won't stay." ”

In this way, the fat woman and the talented man sent Ge Liquan out of the house.
