Be more bold and let it go!
Li Zhengfeng's words were heard by everyone present, and the wine glass in the hand of Peng Tao, who was busy toasting, stopped in mid-air.
At this time, Jia Jingyin, who was in the stomach of the old kiln of Xianglin, began to blush on his face, and he took out the strength of lecturing in the classroom and blowing in front of reporters, and began to talk eloquently: "The 14th National Congress of the Communist Party of China began to put the modern enterprise system on the important agenda, but the reform of state-owned enterprises has not achieved due success for many years. **The report has clearly stated that state-owned enterprises should establish a modern property rights system, carry out the reform of the property rights system, and take the reform of the property rights system as the central task of the current state-owned enterprise reform. Why mention the reform of the property rights system? ”
He paused for a moment, attracted everyone's attention to him, and then smiled reservedly: "Because the property rights of state-owned enterprises are vacant, no one is really responsible for state-owned enterprises, which is the main reason why the reform of state-owned enterprises is not effective." The current reform of property rights is to assign the responsibility of state-owned enterprises to specific people. How? It is necessary to carry out large-scale restructuring, change the composition of the property rights of state-owned enterprises, and attract as many non-state-owned economic elements as possible. Of course, it is impossible for large state-owned enterprises to be given to individuals, because no one has that much money, and we can also create a hún joint ownership system in which various economic components such as individual shareholding, state-owned shareholding, and foreign shareholding coexist. In the past, when we talked about reform, we often aimed at the internal operating mechanism of state-owned enterprises. At present, our reform is aimed at the property rights of state-owned enterprises, that is, the restructuring of state-owned enterprises. ”
Jia Jingyin's words deeply attracted everyone present, he paused, and then continued, "According to our current system, it is very difficult to do a good job in the real estate rights of state-owned enterprises. It is difficult for people in state-owned enterprises, especially those in charge, to really have a strong sense of responsibility for the enterprise. He is dedicated to the public and has done a good job in the enterprise, and maybe someone will replace him the next day. You say, how do you get him to give you a really good job? Even if Governor Li promotes Chairman Peng to take charge of Huang Gang, he will be responsible for you, and he should work hard. But if tomorrow you become a secretary in a certain province, and you don't care about him, he will not be able to take responsibility for you, and maybe a different leader may have to remove him from his post. You say, how can you make him die for you to do a good job in such a management system? ”
Li Zhengfeng asked: "I or Zhengfǔ, I can pay him a high salary, and then evaluate and reward him, so won't he be motivated?" ”
"That's not going to work. You're talking about contract management, and we've already learned a lesson in this regard. In that case, what if he spells the equipment for you, what should I do if I am fake? He got a high salary, and after a few years, he stepped down, and the company became an empty shell, and you still can't make the company bad. Jia Jingyin cleared his throat and continued, "What to do, I think the best way is to give him equity." Let the enterprise be tied to his own economic interests, and he will do his best to make the enterprise must be done well. Because the enterprise is its own or has its own share, it cannot but do a good job of the enterprise. ”
"For large enterprises, how about I can give you a small part of the equity of the operator of a state-owned enterprise, or give a false option, and then reward it after assessment, and then realize the jī incentive for the operator?" Sun Gangzheng has been considering the overall property rights structure model of state-owned enterprises, so he can't help but raise this question. Because the comrades who worked in the Municipal State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission mentioned to him before, if the state-owned enterprises are sold, what will we do? Yes, without state-owned enterprises, what does he, the deputy mayor in charge of industry, care? Even if he is in charge of other work, don't the people who follow him scold him, the deputy mayor?
"Still no. It is still a state-owned enterprise, and your major shareholder is still the state, so there is the problem that property rights cannot be implemented to specific people, and there is the problem that no one is really responsible for the enterprise. The leader of the enterprise will feel that he may come down at any time, and he will not give you the hard work to continue. Jia Jingyin replied with a scheming and well-established look.
"Now all parts of the country are trying to attract foreign capital to participate in the reform of state-owned enterprises, which do you think is better for foreign capital or domestic private enterprises to participate in the reform of state-owned enterprises?" Li Zhengfeng not only brought up the issues he has been thinking about recently.
"Now many places are proud to be able to attract foreign capital and introduce strategic investors to participate in the reform of state-owned enterprises, in fact, private enterprises and foreign capital to participate in the reform of our state-owned enterprises have their own advantages and disadvantages. Reform is a kind of redistribution of interests, and since there are interests in it, there will be struggles. Let's just say that the property rights will be transferred to private enterprises or internal operators of enterprises, because they are all Chinese, it is inevitable that there will be such and such a relationship is not easy to coordinate, I will give it to you, you can't give it to him, you may offend him and even offend the person he entrusted to find you. As the competent authorities, the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission and the government department, in order to be afraid of offending people, the best way is to deal with foreigners, and give foreigners the trouble of such complex interpersonal relationships as Chinese people, save a lot of indescribable troubles, and do not lose an ideal choice. I have analyzed many examples of state-owned enterprises that have been restructured, and it is easier to bring in foreign investors than to involve Chinese people in the restructuring. In addition, if foreign investors really have money and invest their funds in the restructured enterprises, the development of the enterprises may be smoother in the future. ”
Looking at the people with different faces, Jia Jingyin took a sip of tea, and then said, "I talked about the advantages of restructuring with foreigners, but there are also great disadvantages." After all, a foreigner is a foreigner, and he is investing to earn money from us Chinese people. Now that China has joined the WTO, domestic competition is also international competition, and of course, competition between countries is mainly competition in the economic field. Now that foreigners have been allowed to participate in the reform of our large state-owned enterprises, how can our private enterprises become bigger and stronger? Our state-owned enterprises have all been restructured and sold, and private enterprises have been crushed by foreigners. What does the rejuvenation of the Chinese nation depend on? You can't rely on foreigners, can you? Therefore, from the perspective of national interests, I think we should let more domestic private enterprises participate in the reform of state-owned enterprises. In the future, when China's private enterprises are strong, Huaxia can be strong! ”
"Professor Jia said it so well, he stands taller than us, and his analysis is thorough. However, there are not many rich people in China, and so many of our state-owned enterprises need to be restructured, especially those large state-owned enterprises, which are worth hundreds of millions of dollars at every turn, and how many people can afford them. This is, Peng Tao had a light in his eyes, and then said worriedly about the country and the people, "The reform of state-owned enterprises is imminent, and the situation is not waiting for me, like some experts say the popsicle effect, we can't wait, let the state-owned assets continue to be lost in vain!" ”
"This requires Governor Li, Mayor Sun, the elites of the party and the state to make decisions. For the sake of the country, for the sake of the nation, and with the spirit of statesmen and strategists, I believe that you will be able to forge a broad road to the rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. ”
After putting down his big hat for a while, Jia Jingyin continued, "For example, some workarounds can be adopted, such as deferred payments, bank loans, preferential reductions and exemptions, and finding bridge funds, etc., that is, our government departments should introduce some flexible and preferential policy measures." Otherwise, it will be very difficult to carry out the reform of state-owned enterprises in depth. For example, some people say that the property of state-owned enterprises can be regarded as ownerless property, and whoever can get it can be counted as anyone's own. Someone may ask, isn't this a **? However, it should be noted that it is only through such so-called "**" that a new and dynamic system can be exchanged from the rigid system. We should all see that after more than 20 years of reform and opening up, how many state-owned enterprises have collapsed, how many burdens have been brought to government departments at all levels, and how many bad debts have been brought to the country's major banks. It's not up to the people of the whole country to pay out of their pockets to fill those holes and carry those burdens. ”
Speaking of this, he sighed: "State-owned enterprises do not adapt to the objective law of economic development, which has been proved by the experience of all countries in the world. It should be noted that since the last century, starting with the United Kingdom, the sale of the property rights of state-owned enterprises has formed a strong cháo flow from the west through Eurasia to the east, and this cháo flow cannot be reversed by anyone. Therefore, we should not only focus on the so-called loss of state-owned assets that may be caused by the restructuring of state-owned enterprises compared with the books, but also see that if the enterprises are not restructured, they will not be able to do a good job and will cause more and more loss of state-owned assets, and it will also bring more and more heavy burdens to the state and to the government at all levels. In fact, there is no harm in giving state-owned enterprises to individuals, and their assets are still on the land of China, and they still pay taxes to the state and solve social employment in the same way. It is a thankless task to run an enterprise, and it is simply necessary to hand over the existing state-owned enterprises to individuals and the market. ”
"Professor Jia, when you talk about the reform of state-owned enterprises, you often think of the leading cadres in state-owned enterprises first. If he doesn't give him shares, he won't be able to do a good job, and the company won't be able to do well? Even if they don't have the money to buy shares in state-owned enterprises, you can give them preferential policies or something, or even give them away for nothing. So, what do you think of the workers in state-owned enterprises? It turns out that we said that reform is like a woman giving birth, there will be a grit of teeth that can pass the pain, and everything will be fine in the future. However, we have been carrying out reforms for 20 years, and now we are saying that the original path of reform of state-owned enterprises is not feasible and that we must restructure state-owned enterprises. Twenty years, a young man has become an old man, and how much responsibility they have taken for our reforms. Workers in state-owned enterprises should not only take responsibility, but what kind of compensation should they receive when the system is about to be restructured today? Xiong Zhijian, who had not spoken on the side and just kept smoking, spoke at this time.
He looked at Jia Jingyin with his eyes, "I used to work in state-owned enterprises for more than ten years, and I think that in the more than 20 years of reform, the workers are the most pitiful people and the most innocent people." Whoever is responsible for the state-owned enterprises is not in any case, and it cannot be counted on the shoulders of ordinary workers. Now the state-owned enterprises are no longer good, let them be laid off, especially some old workers in their forties and fifties, whose youth has been dedicated to the state. Now that they are older, they have no jobs, and some of them do not even get a little minimum living guarantee. You say, what are they going to do? ”
At this time, Fang Shenzhi, director of the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission of Huanglong City, also echoed, "Yes, the question raised by Mr. Xiong is also a problem we consider. For example, Huanglong City, as an old industrial base, has a large number of laid-off workers, and among the city's nearly one million people, there are more than 130,000 laid-off or unemployed workers, accounting for almost a quarter of the entire Xianglin province. Many of the workers who have taken up their posts earn only 4 or 500 yuan. Now that the reform of state-owned enterprises is being carried out, I think that no matter how it is reformed, there is one problem that cannot be bypassed, that is, there are so many redundant personnel and laid-off workers in state-owned enterprises. Now that the province is stepping up efforts to promote the reform of state-owned enterprises, we in Huanglong City feel the greatest pressure, our city's SASAC is often blocked by laid-off workers, and if you ignore him, he may block the highway and seriously block the railway. You say, what should we do with the two contradictions of social stability and the reform of state-owned enterprises? ”
Regarding the questions raised by Xiong Zhijian and Fang Shenzhi, Jia Jingyin, who had been talking eloquently, was speechless for a while, he hesitated for a moment, and said sneeringly: "We promote reform, improve social efficiency and maintain social fairness and stability are originally a pair of contradictions. Now that China has joined the WTO, in the face of increasing international competition, what should our Chinese enterprises do? I think the first thing we need to do is to improve the competitiveness of our company. Only when enterprises develop and local tax revenues increase will it be possible for us to go back and solve the problems of poor people such as laid-off workers of state-owned enterprises and landless peasants. For the current state-owned enterprises, it is like a popsicle on a hot day, we must eat it as soon as possible, otherwise it will melt away, and there will be nothing left. At that time, what will happen to the old workers of state-owned enterprises, and they may also have to face the problem of being laid off and unemployed! ”
He seemed unwilling to dwell on this issue, and suddenly changed the topic and said, "Since the implementation of reform and opening up in our country, many economists have said that the transition from a planned economy to a market economy is a major social change, which will inevitably touch the interests of all aspects of society. Reform is the adjustment of interests, and it is necessary to sacrifice some interests, and if the reform of state-owned enterprises is to be promoted, I am afraid that some of the interests of a large number of old workers in state-owned enterprises will have to be sacrificed a little. The original planned economy emphasized one large and two publics, and the purpose of implementing the market economy was to widen the gap between the rich and the poor, so that the enthusiasm of the people could be mobilized to improve the efficiency of our entire society. Yes? Do you think that's the reason? ”
Although Li Zhengfeng is a relatively enlightened leader, he feels very dissatisfied with Jia Jingyin's words in his heart, but Jia Jingyin, as a well-known economist in China, is actually not suitable for he, the vice governor, should not argue with him about anything, so he can only fall into deep thought. When the others saw that Li Zhengfeng was no longer talking, they immediately realized that some of the words were overdone, and no one spoke up anymore.
There was silence at the banquet for more than ten seconds, and then Tan Wu broke the silence: "Today we are celebrating the 60th anniversary of the founding of our Huanggang, and at the same time congratulating Governor Li on taking office, how can we create such an atmosphere!" I think that this is not the end of our worries about the country and the people today. Do you want to talk about something light-hearted? Governor Li, everyone, what do you say? ”
Li Zhengfeng came back to his senses from his contemplation, "Yes, yes, the reform of state-owned enterprises is not an overnight thing, and today everyone is worried about the country and the people." Let's focus on drinking. ”
Everyone else couldn't help but agree: "Yes, yes, drink!" ”
Jia Jingyin stood up first and raised his wine glass; "It's all my fault today, when I talk about reform, I can't control my mouth, and I can't help but turn the topic away. In this way, I will toast each person, starting with Governor Li! What do you think? ”
As soon as Peng Tao and others from Huanggang saw that Jia Jingyin, who was a guest, they stood up and wanted to drink a circle of wine, and they were also relieving themselves, so they first expressed their support, and the others also greeted them: "Okay, we should start with Governor Li!" ”
Li Zhengfeng saw that the atmosphere was finally active again, and he didn't want to spoil everyone's interest, after all, this person who advocated drinking and making circles was a famous domestic economist from Beijing. People come here to support the work of Xianglin Province. Li Zhengfeng picked up the wine glass at this time, and accompanied Jia Jingyin to pour down the 68-degree Xianglin old kiln, which was more than one or two.
In the interval between Jia Jingyin and the others toasting, Li Zhengfeng called the secretary Hei Xinsheng to his side and whispered a few words to him, and then Hei Xinsheng went out. In fact, Li Zhengfeng wanted to call Hei Xinsheng to the driver and ask what happened to Zeng Chūnfeng, who was living in the hospital, now.
In the private room, people who no longer talk about reform began to look for new topics. At this time, Hei Xinsheng, who came back from outside, saw that everyone was speechless for a while, so he broke the silence, "Professor Jia, what do you say if you save some money in your own family now?" What should I invest in? ”
Hei Xinsheng works in an agency, and he always likes to ponder the stock market in his free time, but he has not made much money investing for many years, and he has been hedged by two stocks for more than two years, and he has been complained by his wife at home. Recently, his wife saw that others sold houses and said that they were making money, and then saw that the current house prices were rising again, so she couldn't hold back her temperament and clamored to buy a house. Today, I was fortunate to meet a well-known economist in China, Hei Xinsheng wanted to ask for advice, and asked sincerely: "My wife and I have recently had a dispute over whether to invest in the stock market or buy a house, I said that I should put my money in the stock market, and my wife prefers to buy a house." Prof. Jia, what do you think should be invested? ”
"I'm not an expert on family finance, whether to invest in the stock market or buy a house, so I can't tell you the specifics. But from the perspective of the overall economic situation, I can help you analyze whether it is right or wrong for your reference only. Jia Jingyin stroked his almost white hair with his hand, "The stock market has been relatively low for a long time recently, and in combination with the international and domestic situation, I estimate that it will continue for a while, but now that the country is carrying out the reform of equity division, I think if the reform of equity division is completed, there should be a relatively large round of upside." Although the country has adopted a series of policies to suppress housing prices, I think that the general city will maintain a continuous upward trend, and housing prices in a few large cities may fall. Like the real estate prices in some cities in Xianglin Province, I think there is still room to rise, and some cities may still have a lot of room to rise. After all, the country is promoting urbanization, and the transfer of rural population to cities is the general trend, and the rise in housing prices is of course also the general trend. If you have an accurate vision, follow the big market, don't blindly follow the trend, and it is also good to have money to invest in stocks. If you invest in the long term, you should not go wrong with investing in stocks and housing! ”
At this time, Xiong Zhijian spoke, "Professor Jia, I can say that my business situation is still good when I invest in real estate in Jiangcheng, but the competition is too fierce now. We also invested in Huanglong City, and the competition was not very strong, but the housing prices were too low, and it was difficult to make money. The house was built and couldn't be sold for a long time. Can the professor give me some advice? ”
Sun Gangzheng also began to complain: "As an old industrial base, Huanglong City has an underdeveloped economy, housing prices are also very low, the price of land transfer is even lower, all kinds of taxes on real estate cannot be collected, the finances are very difficult, and the salaries of civil servants are almost not paid." When the housing prices in Huanglong City are also like the provincial capital and Jiangcheng City, then our financial life will be better. Now that the reform of state-owned enterprises is carried out, the municipal finance has no money to pay the cost of reform, which is difficult! ”
"As my friends, if you have any personal issues to discuss, I will not hesitate to say anything." Although Jia Jingyin is an economist, when it comes to money, he quickly becomes as shrewd as a businessman, "But Mr. Xiong's requirements are difficult to meet." After all, when it comes to consulting on issues such as company management, we have to charge a fee. If you have any business, please contact us Ms. Lin Meiwei, she is mainly responsible for this business. Mr. Xiong, I'm sorry here! ”
"Business, of course there is a charge for the service. However, listening to Professor Jia's words today, I benefited a lot. I have Miss Lin's business card here, and I will contact Miss Lin. I hope that Professor Jia can have time to visit our company and give lectures to the management of our company at the same time. Of course, we will definitely pay a reasonable fee. As he spoke, Xiong Zhijian laughed, and at the same time raised his wine glass, "Professor Jia's circle is over, I'll play a circle here." It's all old friends today......"
In the end, Lin Meiyu also picked up the liquor, saying that she couldn't drink more, but she must respect everyone. As soon as the lady came out, the atmosphere was lively again.
For more than an hour, Li Zhengfeng's private room still drank a box of 68-degree Xianglin old kiln. Although Li Zhengfeng didn't drink a circle of wine like a few of them, he also felt that he drank a little too much, fortunately, although the wine of Xianglin Laoyao was a little strong, but fortunately, it was not too good, even if it was not as famous as Moutai, it was still good.
After Li Zhengfeng returned to his residence, he washed his face with cold water and cleared his head a lot. He sat on the sofa, picked up a newspaper on the coffee table and flipped through it, when suddenly a small piece of tofu news from the "Guangyuan Evening News" aroused his interest.
"The nameless man was drunk and lying on the highway without being rescued and was run over to death by a car":
Yesterday night, outside a bend in the highway leading from Huanglong City to the mining area of Donghe County, an unidentified foreign man was lying drunk in the middle of the road due to excessive drinking, and was unfortunately run over by a passing vehicle.
At about 4 o'clock this morning, our newspaper's "Timely News" received a call from an enthusiastic reporter saying that a man in Huanglong City was run over by passing vehicles on the highway through the city's mining area, which caused a traffic jam on the highway for a large number of vehicles. Our newspaper immediately conducted an investigation and verification through the resident correspondent. When the reporter arrived, he found that the traffic police had already been at the scene of the accident and were conducting an inquest at the scene of the accident. Through interviews with the traffic police who handled the accident, it was learned that the man was between 30 and 35 years old, his identity was unknown, and he may have drunk heavily before his death. After a preliminary inquest, it was determined that the man had been run over by at least two or more vehicles, and further investigation was ongoing.
This morning, this newspaper also mentioned a phone call from a gentleman surnamed Li, claiming that at about 20 o'clock last night, he was riding a motorcycle to get off work and passed a bend near 1 kilometer in front of the bridge leading to the mining area in Donghe County, and saw a man who had been injured after drinking lying there. This person once wanted to take the injured and drunk man to the hospital, but considering that he could not go to the village or the back of the store, and that no one else had to prove it to him, he did not dare to rescue him for fear that the man would later identify him as the perpetrator and blackmail him. After that, he parked his motorcycle at the shadow of the road to see if anyone could help the drunken and injured man. The man claimed to have waited on the side of the road for about 10 minutes, had seen several cyclists and two cars that had passed by, looked at the drunk and injured man lying on the ground and left without saying a word, and several other cars did not notice the drunk and injured person at all and almost ran over the person. What made him very angry was that in the middle of this, a black Sè Passat car with a local license plate in Huanglong had passed by, and a cadre of about 40 with glasses had also gotten out of the car, looked at the drunk and injured man, hesitated for a while and got into the car and left. He said that not a single state cadre would rescue the drunk and injured man, and he felt that he should not care about this person any longer, so he did not wait any longer, and then left the scene. When he passed by there this morning, he heard that the man had been run over to death, and he regretted it very much, and he blamed himself very much......
After reading this report, Li Zhengfeng first felt a chill, and then became very angry, how could this newspaper, as the party's mouthpiece and propaganda and public opinion tool, publish news like this? An image of a Passat with glasses can show that it is a state cadre? If the person who called the newspaper had a limited level of judgment about the problem, it would have been reasonable, but the newspaper would have followed suit. If the person sitting in the Passat is not a state cadre, and your newspaper may be a state cadre, what a bad impact will that have on the party and the government? He immediately found his secretary Hei Xinsheng and told him to call Gong Lepeng, secretary of the Huanglong Municipal Party Committee, and asked him to inquire about this matter, and instructed the public security department to investigate the case well. After speaking, Li Zhengfeng signed an opinion on the newspaper: "Please ask the Propaganda Department of the Provincial Party Committee and the comrades of Huanglong City to read it, and instruct the Huanglong City Public Security Department to seriously investigate!" "Opinions.
Li Zhengfeng turned on the TV and tuned the program to CCTV's news channel.
After a while, the secretary Hei Xinsheng came in, "Governor Li, just now Xiao Cao called from the hospital, saying that it was in the afternoon that Zeng nǎinǎi heard that Tang Jianguo was not dead, and her condition was much better. ”
When Li Zhengfeng heard this, he breathed a long sigh of relief, "Jianguo didn't commit suicide, it's great!" ”
Hei Xinsheng hesitated, "However, Governor Li, now Zeng nǎinǎi is missing from the hospital. ”
Li Zhengfeng was stunned, "What do you mean it's gone?" Did you look for it in the hospital? ”
Hei Xinsheng said: "The hospital thought that Zeng Nǎinǎi was just taking a walk and would not go far, so he searched everywhere in the ward, but found no shadow of the old man anywhere. Now they are inquiring about where Zeng's home is, and they are going to visit her house. ”
Li Zhengfeng also wondered, where did the old lady in her 80s go in the dark? He suddenly thought that the old man was frugal all his life, and he was usually reluctant to take even cheap medicine when he was sick, could it be that he felt uneasy when he found himself living in a high-level ward? Aren't you going home? Oops, it's so dark, and there's no bus in the place where she lives? If not, how long will she have to walk? After today's day of tossing, can the old man walk that far?
Li Zhengfeng didn't dare to think about it anymore, he called Hei Xinsheng and hurriedly walked out, saying as he walked: "Xiao Hei, let's go to Zeng's mother's house to have a look, don't have anything happening again." If she hadn't moved, I would have been able to find where she had lived. The driver Cao Minan has not come back from the hospital, Hei Xinsheng wanted to call Xiao Cao but was stopped by Li Zhengfeng, "Xiao Hei, don't call Xiao Cao, our car is too eye-catching, let's take a taxi." ”
Hei Xinsheng thought about it, and the license plate of Xiang 0-00005 was indeed too eye-catching.
When he walked out of the room, Li Zhengfeng specially asked Hei Xinsheng to explain to the waiter, if the comrades in the city or Huang Gang asked about their whereabouts, it would be for them to take a casual walk around the neighborhood at night. In fact, within a few minutes of Li Zhengfeng leaving the hotel, several groups of people came to look for him.
After Li Zhengfeng and the others walked out of the hotel, they got into a taxi and told the taxi driver that they were going to the Huang Gong's family home in the Madianzi living area. The driver, who was in his 30s, seemed to be very familiar with the place they were talking about, so he said enthusiastically: "My family lives in the family home of Huang Gong in Madianzi, who are the two gentlemen going to?" ”
"Zeng chūn Feng family, do you know?" Secretary Hei Xinsheng said.
"Haven't you heard that there is a person named Zeng Chūn Feng who lives there? Where I was born when I was a child, I don't remember hearing of anyone with such a name! The taxi driver replied a little sleepily as he said that the driver started the car.
"His son's name is Tang Jianguo!" Li Zhengfeng added.
"Oh! He's here! You say it's okay to find Zeng nǎinǎi's house. Zeng nǎinǎi turned out to be a famous figure in our place, and when I was in elementary school, she even went to school to tell us the story of fighting against Japan and fighting devils! I remember when I was a child, we used to go to her house to do good deeds and clean up. The taxi driver was a little excited at this time, "I'll take you there, her house is not far from us." ”
Suddenly, the taxi driver sighed, "Zeng nǎinǎi is such a good person, why can't he think about it so much." It's no wonder that the 80-year-old man, when his only son has an accident, he can't stand it! ”
"Do you know anything about their family?" Li Zhengfeng asked with concern.
"I know, but I don't know the specifics. Yesterday I drove the evening bus, I was sleeping in the morning, and at noon I listened to my daughter-in-law fù say that she had been looking for a short time. The taxi driver tilted his head sideways and looked at Li Zhengfeng, who was sitting in the back, "The gentleman in the back is a little familiar, are you related to their family?" ”
"yes!" Li Zhengfeng suddenly remembered something, and said to the driver, "The Zeng nǎinǎi you said was sent to the hospital today, but now she is gone, and we want to know if she has returned home." Can you take a walk along the nearest road from Huanglong First Hospital to Madianzi Living Community, and help us find out if Zeng Nǎinǎi is on the way home. ”
The taxi walked a little down the main road and then turned into the side street. The taxi didn't go too fast, and Li Zhengfeng felt that the road was becoming more and more familiar. Except for some buildings built on the main roads in Huanglong City over the years, some small streets have not changed much. Suddenly, they saw a tricycle walking in front of them, and there was a person sitting on it, and the taxi driver shouted happily, "The person sitting on that tricycle is Zeng nǎinǎi." ”
The taxi driver parked the car on the side of the road in front of the tricycle, opened the door and walked out, and shouted at Zeng Chūn Feng, "Zeng nǎinǎi, you have a guest at home!" Then Li Zhengfeng and the others also got out of the taxi.
The tricycle stopped, and the man pedaling the tricycle said, "When I finished selling vegetables, I saw an old lady walk a few steps and stop to rest, so I took her with my tricycle." Old lady, your family is here, you can go with them! As he spoke, he helped Zeng Chūn Feng get off the tricycle.
After getting into the taxi, Li Zhengfeng asked, "Mother Zeng, why did you come out of the hospital by yourself?" ”
Zeng Chūn Feng looked very tired, but her spirit was much better than before, and she said happily: "Feng Wa'er, your brother Jianguo didn't have an accident. Jianguo, this kid, can scare me to death! As he spoke, the corners of Zeng Chūnfeng's eyes were full of tears, "This afternoon, the neighbors came to see me in the hospital and told me that Jianguo was fine. They also let me talk to Jianguo on the phone. ”
When Li Zhengfeng heard this, a hanging heart also let go, and he complained again: "Mother Zeng, you are not in good health, why are you not in the hospital?" Why did you sneak out alone? ”
"I'm not sick, what are you doing with that money when you are hospitalized!" Zeng Chūn Feng replied lightly.
At this time, the driver of the taxi spoke, "Zeng nǎinǎi, who is this person who calls your mother?" I look like I'm a little impressed, and I can't recognize it for a while! ”
"Endeavour, don't you recognize it? This is your uncle! You should have seen it a few years ago! ”
The taxi driver named "Endeavour" suddenly came to his senses and shouted: "Oh, I remember, I said how I look so familiar!" ”
Li Zhengfeng smiled, he really knew this driver, his name was Zhou Fenfen, this kind of name such as founding the country, patriotism, army building, loving the army, and endeavor was a special feature at that time, and there were many of the same names, and it was also a vivid memory of the times. Li Zhengfeng is eleven or twelve years older than Zhou Fenfen, so people call him uncle, which means younger uncle, when he was working in Huanggang, Zhou Endeavor was only seven or eight years old this week, and later when he left for a period of time and then transferred back to Huanggang, Zhou Fenfen went to middle school in his teens, boarding at school, and meeting Li Zhengfeng was a little less, no wonder he was not very impressed.
He said hello to Zhou Fenjin, and then turned to Hei Xinsheng and said: "Xiao Hei, call Xiao Cao, just say that Zeng's mother has found it, let's take her home first, let Xiao Cao talk to the doctors in the hospital, and rest assured." ”
The taxi whirled through the narrow streets and stopped in front of a dilapidated bungalow in front of it. Li Zhengfeng helped Zeng Chūn Feng get out of the car, and when he was about to pay the taxi fare, the taxi driver Zhou Fenjin smiled: "It's all neighbors, Uncle Zhengfeng hasn't seen him for so many years, how can I ask for your money!" ”
Li Zhengfeng insisted on giving, Zhou Fenjin insisted on not to, and finally Zhou Fenjin was anxious and said, "Isn't this cold mixed with me?" You, hurry up and put away the money, I still have to find a business", Li Zhengfeng knew that it would be in vain to continue talking, and people didn't want it, so they had to thank him a few words and let him leave.
When Li Zhengfeng stepped into the very small courtyard of Zeng's Feng family, a sense of familiarity and intimacy came to his face, but a sense of guilt arose. He has been away from Huanglong City for more than ten years, and he has only seen Zeng Chūn Feng once in the middle, except for phone calls, he has not seen their family again because he is too busy with work, but he never imagined that Zeng Chūn Feng and his family still live in this small courtyard.
Entering the courtyard, Tang Jianguo's lover Liang Xiaoying had already walked out of the door to greet her, and when they saw Li Zhengfeng, they asked in surprise: "Mom, didn't the doctor let you be hospitalized?" Why did you come back with Brother Zhengfeng and them? ”
"I'm not sick, what hospital am I going to?" Zeng Chūn Feng replied very dryly.
After entering the house, Li Zhengfeng saw that the situation in the house had not changed much from the situation he had been here many years ago, and the pair of sofas that were popular more than ten years ago, a TV cabinet, a 14-inch old-fashioned color TV, and a double chuáng were quietly squeezed into a room of twelve or thirteen square meters, and there was nothing more valuable. Entering the house, they helped the old man to lie on the chuáng. When the old man asked his daughter-in-law Liang Xiaoying to prepare a meal for Li Zhengfeng, Li Zhengfeng insisted that they had already eaten.
Liang Xiaoying put the folding round dining table away, poured a glass of boiled water for Li Zhengfeng and Hei Xinsheng with a glass teacup, and then rubbed her hands very apologetically and said, "I didn't expect you to come, I didn't prepare anything at home, just drink some white water!" ”
