Chapter 60: The Kiln Master's Hospitality

The corners of Zhang Guilai's mouth showed a helpless smile, he looked at Li Ergou's back running in the rain and gradually moving away, he pulled the woven bag on his head in his hand, and threw it into the wind casually, the woven bag slowly fell to the ground, and let the ruthless rain wet it.

I don't know if it was rain or tears that blurred Zhang Guilai's eyes, he waved his hand in the direction where Li Ergou was far away and said, "Brother, goodbye!" You must live well, I will definitely come back to you again, and on the day I triumph, I will not forget the kindness of your brothers to me! ”

After speaking, Zhang Gui disappeared into the night in the rain without looking back.

Li Ergou hurriedly returned home, his body was also soaked, the place that the woven bag could cover was limited after all, and Li Ergou was afraid that he would delay Zhang Guilai's trip if he slacked off a little, Li Ergou didn't have time to take down the woven bag buckled on his head and rushed to the kang, there was nothing on the empty pillow, and only Zhang Tiedan was holding the quilt in a daze on the kang.

Li Ergou asked eagerly, "Tiedan, have you seen anything on the pillow?" ”

Zhang Tiedan's expression was very wooden, he shook his head and replied, "There has been nothing on the pillow." ”

Li Ergou said anxiously while rummaging: "Impossible, Brother Zhang said, his things fell on our kang, how could there be none?" ”

Zhang Tiedan said lightly: "He should be talking about the things under the pillow." ”

Li Ergou was stunned for a moment, his eyes fell on the pillow again, there seemed to be a bulging thing under the pillow, Li Ergou seemed to understand something, but he didn't dare to believe his judgment, he didn't dare to slack off, reached out and took the pillow away, when he slowly lifted the pillow with trembling hands, his heart twitched, followed by the unstoppable tears.

Li Ergou turned his head to look at Zhang Tiedan, and blamed him with a sad expression: "Why didn't you tell me earlier?" ”

Zhang Tiedan looked aggrieved and said: "He didn't let me say what the eldest brother said, and he still said that I had to listen to him." ”

Li Ergou slammed his fist on the kang fiercely, hugged the wad of money and said with tears: "Big brother, why are you so stupid!" ”

After Ding Fengjun listened to what Li Ergou said, he turned his head to look at Zhang Tiedan, who was sleeping on the car window, and then looked at Li Ergou, who had not yet been separated from the sad memories, Ding Fengjun's heart was also very uncomfortable, he didn't expect Zhang Guilai's appreciation of him to be so high, and he didn't expect him to be so important in Zhang Guilai's heart.

Ding Fengjun patted Li Ergou on the shoulder and comforted: "It's okay, everything is over." Zhang Guilai will definitely come back. ”

Li Ergou smiled bitterly and said lightly: "It's been a few years since he came back, and he still hasn't come back, I think it's very likely that he won't come back." ”

Ding Fengjun sighed and said: "No matter what, this is his choice, as for whether it is good or bad, everything is only borne by him alone, but there is no need for you to be overly immersed in sadness, in my opinion, you have done a good job, presumably Zhang Guilai also knows in his heart, if he really soars one day, he will definitely come back to find you brothers." ”

Li Ergou smiled bitterly again, and he said: "Second brother, in fact, I don't care if he comes back to us, I just hope that he can mix well in BJ alone." He wants us to live well, and I hope he can live well. ”

Ding Fengjun smiled and said: "Don't worry, with Zhang Guilai's ability, he will definitely live well, I think it's still early, you can also squint, we still have to walk a long way when we get to the place." ”

Li Ergou nodded, leaned on the back of the car seat and narrowed his eyes.

Ding Fengjun twisted his head out of the window, and through the glass window, he saw that the east was already white.

When the car stopped, it was already one o'clock in the afternoon, Ding Fengjun took Zhang Jilai and the three of them got out of the car and walked to the No. 2 kiln to find Director Ye, the kiln where Ding Fengjun was in the past was not far from the No. 2 kiln factory, and he had also been to the No. 2 kiln with his colleagues, so he was no stranger to this road.

There is a distance of three or four miles from the place where they got off the bus to the No. 2 kiln factory, and the walk is about twenty minutes.

The moment Director Ye saw Ding Fengjun, he was a little stunned, and after he confirmed that it was Ding Fengjun, his face showed an excited smile.

"Xiao Ding, I knew you would come." Director Ye personally took the luggage in Ding Fengjun's hand as he spoke, and the four people standing next to Director Ye also hurried to pick up the luggage of the other three, and this enthusiastic attitude made Zhang Jilai and the three of them a little flattered.

After taking the luggage, Director Ye said to Ding Fengjun: "The bed has been prepared for you since I came here last time, but I didn't expect you to really bring someone here, but don't worry, we still have two empty rooms, enough for them to stay." ”

Ding Fengjun said with a smile: "It's really troublesome for Director Ye." ”

Director Ye smiled heartily and said: "You are polite to me, they are all your own family, you will live here first, and I will let Li Yuequan arrange work for you tomorrow." ”

Ding Fengjun nodded, and several people had been taken to their respective rooms between the words, Zhang Tiedan and Li Ergou lived in the same room, Zhang Jilai and Ding Fengjun lived in the same room, originally Director Ye meant to let Ding Fengjun live in a room alone, but Ding Fengjun was worried that Zhang Jilai was going out for the first time, and it would be a little inconvenient for him to live with other workers, so he asked Director Ye to let Zhang Jilai live in the same room with him.

After all the things were arranged, Director Ye said to Ding Fengjun with a smile: "Xiao Ding, you haven't eaten yet, let's go, I'll invite you to dinner." ”

Ding Fengjun looked at the four people standing next to Director Ye, and he said a little embarrassedly: "Director Ye, if you have something to do, you can go and get busy first, and I'll take them out for a simple make-do." ”

Director Ye smiled, he understood what Ding Fengjun meant, and after laughing, he turned to the four people beside him and said: "You four come here, let me introduce you, this is the Ding Fengjun I have been talking about before, his brick-burning skills are first-class, you must study hard in the future, don't look down on others because you are also a master." ”

The four nodded yes and said yes, yes, and Director Ye introduced Ding Fengjun one by one: "This is called Liu Ming, this is Zhao Laosi, that is Wu Yutao, and the one on the edge is Wei Chengying, and the four of them are the oldest masters in the No. 2 kiln." ”

Ding Fengjun also greeted these four politely, Ding Fengjun always had a sense of oppression when he looked at the appearance of these four, on the surface they were very friendly to Ding Fengjun, but through this appearance, Ding Fengjun felt a sense of rejection.

Director Ye originally wanted to invite these four to dinner, because it is now the busy season, the efficiency of bricks must be high, the key point is that the current customer requirements are also high, especially for quality, because of the quality of the owner has complained many times, so this time Director Ye plans to invite these masters, let them take their own apprentices, but what Director Ye did not expect is to meet Ding Fengjun, the savior who came to him.

The weight of this Ding Fengjun is heavier than these four combined, so he would rather invite Ding Fengjun than invite them, but Director Ye is not a three-year-old child, he doesn't want to offend the old backbone of his factory, he smiled and said to the four people: "That's it, I'll invite you to dinner another day, it's rare to meet my old employees today, not to mention that they have come so far away, how can I say that I have to entertain them well, so let's find a place to eat today, remember to drink less, It's the busy season, and I don't want any problems with the brick kiln at this juncture. ”

After speaking, Director Ye didn't wait for the four people to reply, pulled Ding Fengjun and walked out of the kiln factory, looking at the back of Director Ye and Ding Fengjun leaving, the roots of the teeth of the four people hated it.

Liu Ming spat on the ground fiercely, and said angrily: "Phew, what a thing, I see that kid is only in his early twenties, what can he do!" ”

"That's it, Director Ye is too pretentious, a little hairy child is worth it, and he is so excited as a man in his forties?" Wei Chengying said unconvinced.

Zhao Laosi was silent for a while, and said: "Let's not be angry here alone, we still suffer from the bad body, I think Director Ye's performance is a bit exaggerated, but we also have to guard against that Ding Fengjun, if he doesn't have real skills, Director Ye won't value him so much." ”

Wu Yutao took over the conversation and said: "Even if he has real skills, it's just a little hairy child, I don't believe he can be happy in front of a few of us in our thirties!" ”

Liu Ming had already been angry with Director Ye's approach, and he said angrily: "I think this old man Ye is also confused, and he doesn't want to think about it, who supported him in this No. 2 kiln factory, he knows every day that we should pay attention to efficiency and production quality, and I don't even want to catch a fart now with his attitude!" Today, this is Liu Yuequan, Director Liu is not here, if he is here, I have to tell him. ”

Wei Chengying said indignantly: "That's it, wait until Brother Liu comes back, and then you will definitely let this Ding Fengjun eat and not go around!" ”

Zhao Laosi was much calmer than the three of them, he touched his chin and said thoughtfully: "You have to calm down, don't be so reckless, this Ding Fengjun is just a newcomer, we can't figure out each other's temperament, the so-called bone broth is delicious, it has to be simmered slowly, if you come up, use a big fire, and in the end it is yourself who suffers." ”

Liu Ming snorted disdainfully and said to Zhao Laosi: "Zhao Laosi, although you are older than us, but you have more worries than us, let me tell you, we young people just like pleasure and excitement, I will give this Ding Fengjun a dismount, I want to see if this is a difficult bone or a piece of rotten tofu!" ”

Director Ye took Ding Fengjun and they came to a small restaurant nearby, this small restaurant is no better than the restaurant in the town, everything is simple, there are a few tables scattered in the small room, and the desktop is not very clean, as if the store only wiped a handful on the table with a rag, but it is already very good here, the place where the general kiln brick factory is located is very remote, and there are few people living around, let alone shops and restaurants, this No. 2 brick kiln is the same as the brick kiln where Ding Fengjun stayed before, with a wide field of vision, There are also a few factories scattered around, and there are a few simple restaurants near the factories.

At the end of this day, Ding Fengjun and the four of them were already hungry, and as soon as the meal was served, a few people devoured it, and they didn't care about anything that was not imaged.

Director Ye couldn't help but chuckle when he looked at the eating of several people, and after eating for a while, Ding Fengjun made time to chat with Director Ye.

"Director Ye, what are those four people you just met?"

Director Ye smiled and put down the chopsticks in his hand and said: "They are only the technical backbone of the No. 2 brick kiln, if there is no them, our No. 2 kiln will have to stop fire." ”

Ding Fengjun sighed softly and said thoughtfully: "I don't think they are good at stubble, their eyes are full of hostility when they look at me." ”

Director Ye waved his hand and said: "How can it be, Xiaoding, don't think about it, although they are high-eyed and low-handed, they are not the kind of people who want to find trouble, but don't worry, as long as you do a good job here, I dare to guarantee that they will not dare to do anything to you." ”

Ding Fengjun smiled and said, "Is it possible that Director Ye is still afraid that Ding Fengjun will find trouble?" Haha......"

After speaking, Director Ye and Ding Fengjun laughed together, and at this time, Zhang Tiedan was also full, he burped and said: "Second brother, you are right, those people are not good at stubble, especially the guy with the sharp mouth and monkey cheeks, his heart is very bad, Second Brother Ding, you have to guard against him." ”

After listening to Zhang Tie's words, Director Ye looked at Ding Fengjun with doubts in his eyes, Ding Fengjun smiled and said: "Director Ye, you don't have to listen to his nonsense, he is talking nonsense here." ”

Director Ye waved his hand and said solemnly: "No, I think this little brother's analysis is very right, the person with the sharp-beaked monkey cheeks he said is called Liu Ming, he is really a bad stomach." ”

After speaking, Director Ye turned his head to look at Zhang Tiedan and said, "This little brother, how did you see it, could it be that you used to be a fortune teller?" ”

Zhang Tiedan smiled stupidly, and said with puzzlement: "I'm not a fortune teller......"

"Director Ye, my brother is just an ordinary person, how can he tell any hexagrams, Director Ye really exalts him." Li Ergou was afraid that his stupid brother would say the wrong thing, so he hurriedly took Zhang Tiedan's words and said.

Director Ye nodded with some disappointment, and he said to Ding Fengjun again: "Xiao Ding, do these friends of yours know how to burn kilns?" Do you have any experience? ”

Ding Fengjun looked embarrassed, he smiled and said: "Director Ye, to be honest, the three of them are all going to the kiln for the first time, but don't worry, I will personally take them, so that their craftsmanship is the same as mine, and they will complete the tasks assigned by Director Ye with absolute quality and quantity." ”

Director Ye nodded thoughtfully, and he said, "Okay, I believe you will be able to take them well." ”

After chatting for a while, Director Ye took Ding Fengjun and them back, and Director Ye asked Ding Fengjun and the others to go back to rest first, and then determine the work time early tomorrow morning.

After Director Ye left, Ding Fengjun called all three of them to his room for a simple meeting.

Ding Fengjun looked at Zhang Tiedan when he entered the door, and after Zhang Tiedan sat down, Ding Fengjun said: "Tiedan, you remember, no matter if you see any advantages and disadvantages of others in the future, don't tell it, and when you have time after work, just tell a few of us, do you understand?" ”

Zhang Tiedan nodded and shook his head, and said, "But why is this?" ”

Li Ergou interjected: "Because this is what the second brother said." You have to listen. ”

Zhang Tiedan nodded and said, "Well, I understand, just like when we were at home, my brother told me, if we don't obey, others will be beaten when they hear it." ”

Ding Fengjun smiled and nodded, which could be regarded as a reply to Zhang Tiedan.

"Knock Knock Knock ......"

The four of them were still in a small meeting, and there was a knock on the door.

The four of them looked at the closed door in unison.
