Chapter Seventy-Five: The Order for the Shovel Came
"Qin Hai, you're back!"
The train stopped at Pingyuan Railway Station, and as soon as Qin Hai stepped off the train, he felt as if a dark cloud was floating overhead, and a fat man rushed impatiently in front of him and took the heavy bag in his hand.
"Ningmo?" Qin Hai looked intently and saw that it was the little brother Ning Mo who was standing in front of him sweating. Ning Mo looked at Qin Hai with a happy face, as if he was looking at a lover who had been absent for a long time.
"Uh...... You've picked up the wrong person, shouldn't you go and help your dad carry the bag first? Qin Hai pointed at Ning Zhongying, who was walking behind him, and reminded Ning Mo.
"Oh, yes, my dad is on a business trip with you, too." Ning Mo reacted at this time, and hurriedly stepped forward to help Ning Zhongying carry his bag. Before Ning Zhongying could stare at him and reprimand him for having no beads, he had already turned back to Qin Hai's side.
"Qin Hai, why have you been there for so long, I can't find you alive or dead. If it weren't for Lao Chen saying that you would come back today, I would have planned to go to Pujiang to find you. Ning Mo chattered to Qin Hai.
Qin Hai was puzzled by Ning Mo's unusual enthusiasm, no matter how good his friendship with Ning Mo was, the protagonist of today's pick-up should be Ning Zhongying. Ning Mo was so enthusiastic about him, he didn't care about Ning Zhongying, and even said that Ning Zhongying was on a business trip with Qin Hai, which was simply a big rebellion.
Without waiting for Qin Hai to ask Ning Mo anything, Chen Rongkun, who was also the director of the office temporarily, and Wei Long, the driver, both came up, and these two people would not make a mistake about the priorities, so they directly ignored Qin Hai and went straight to Ning Zhongying. Wei Long also took the remaining small bag in Ning Zhongying's hand, and Chen Rongkun asked Ning Zhongying with a smile on his face whether it was hot on the road, whether there were mosquitoes on the train, and other unnutritious questions.
Before Ning Zhongying and the others set off from Pujiang, they sent a telegram to the factory, explaining the number of trains they were taking and other information, and it was natural for Chen Rongkun to come to pick up the station. If Ning Mo came to pick up the station as Ning Zhongying's son, it would be reasonable, but he didn't have Ning Zhongying in his eyes at all, and his attention was focused on Qin Hai, which made people feel strange.
"Ning Mo, what the hell are you doing, are you here to pick me up." Taking advantage of Ning Zhongying's entanglement by Chen Rongkun, Qin Hai asked Ning Mo in a low voice.
"yes, who else can you pick up if I don't pick up?" Ning Mo replied assumingly.
"Your skin is itchy, I was on a business trip with your dad, and you actually came to pick me up, I'm not afraid that your dad will go back to clean you up." Qin Hai said with a smile.
Ning Mo looked at Ning Zhongying's side and said disdainfully: "He is the factory director, and he is worried that no one will pick him up." I'm here to pick you up, there's something big going on. ”
"What's the big deal?" Qin Hai was stunned.
Ning Mo pointed with his hand: "Look who is over there." ”
Qin Hai looked up and saw that in the corner of the platform, there was a jeep with a military license plate parked, and the soldier standing next to the car was clearly Ge Dongyan.
"Is Platoon Commander Ge looking for me?" Qin Hai understood a little in his heart, Ge Dongyan came to him, obviously for the matter of the military shovel. After waiting for so many days, this matter should have a follow-up.
"Dad, I have something to do with Qin Hai, let's go first, okay?" Ning Mo finally thought that some things needed to be approved by his father, who was the factory director, so he came to Ning Zhongying's side and asked him for instructions.
"What's the matter?" Ning Zhongying asked.
Qin Hai walked over and said, "Director Ning, it's that incident in the army, I want to ask for a leave of absence and deal with it first." ”
"Oh, then there you go." Ning Zhongying nodded and agreed. Regarding the matter of the military shovel, Qin Hai once reported to Ning Zhongying, and promised that the machining of the military shovel would be handed over to Qingfeng Factory to do, and Ning Zhongying was still very concerned about this. However, after Pujiang received so many orders, Ning Zhongying began to look down on the military shovel, but when it came to the troops, Ning Zhongying was naturally inconvenient to stop it.
"Qin Hai, you have to distinguish between priorities and priorities, there are still a lot of things waiting for you in the factory, you can't patronize the affairs of the troops." Seeing Qin Hai turn around and want to leave, Ning Zhongying said uneasily.
"Director Ning, don't worry, I'll take care of it." Qin Hai agreed.
Chen Rongkun said with a smile on the side: "Xiao Qin is really capable and hardworking, but Director Ning attaches so much importance to you, you have to put the things in the factory first, and don't live up to Director Ning's expectations." ”
Director Chen is relieved. I'll go first. Qin Hai returned a smile to Chen Rongkun, then handed the bag containing the materials to Wei Long, asked him to take it back to the factory, and followed Ning Mo to Ge Dongyan empty-handed.
"Why does Xiao Qin still have contact with the troops?" Looking at Qin Hai and Ning Mo's backs, Chen Rongkun asked Ning Zhongying.
Ning Zhongying smiled helplessly and said: "This kid, there are too many flowers, if it weren't for his contribution to the factory, I would definitely not allow him to leave." ”
"Hehe, young man, ......" Chen Rongkun expressed his emotion in a general way, he could hear that Ning Zhongying's accusation against Qin Hai was clear and deprecating, so naturally he would not say anything bad about Qin Hai.
Qin Hai and Ning Mo walked quickly in front of Ge Dongyan, Qin Hai greeted with a smile: "Platoon Leader Ge, it's been a hard work." ”
"Humph! You still know how to come back! Ge Dongyan reprimanded with eyes that were not eyes and noses that were not noses, "Do you know that I have been waiting for you for a few days?" ”
"There's no way, people in the workplace can't help themselves. If you want to complain, you can blame his father. Qin Hai pointed at Ning Mo and began to shift his firepower.
"With my temper, I didn't want to wait for you for a long time...... Let's get in the car. Ge Dongyan muttered, and sat in the driver's seat first.
Ge Dongyan came from Hongze two days ago, and he was full of enthusiasm to find Qin Hai and start talking about the military shovel, but when he inquired about Qingfeng Factory, he learned that Qin Hai had gone on a business trip, and it was uncertain when he would come back.
In those days, people didn't have mobile phones or pagers, and business trips were equivalent to fish in the sea, and they couldn't get in touch at all. Fortunately, Qin Hai explained all the relevant things to Ning Mo and the others before leaving, Ge Dongyan took Ning Mo and others to go around Pingyuan for two days, and some things were done, but some key issues still had to wait for Qin Hai to come back to decide. In the past two days, a calm person like Ge Dongyan has been in a hurry to break out a few bubbles.
Yesterday, Ning Mo finally brought news to Ge Dongyan, saying that the factory had received a telegram from Ning Zhongying, and they would arrive in Pingyuan today. Ge Dongyan inquired about the timing of the train, then drove the jeep and pulled Ning Mo to pick up the station.
I don't know if the railway department is deliberately blocking Ge Dongyan, and the train from Pujiang was actually delayed for more than half an hour, which undoubtedly made Ge Dongyan's heart a little more prosperous.
Of course, Ge Dongyan also knew that he shouldn't blame Qin Hai, after all, he was an employee of Qingfeng Factory, and it was his job to go on a business trip with the factory director, so what reason did he have to oppose it? He shook his face at Qin Hai, but it was just because he had been aggrieved for too long, so he had to vent it.
By the time Qin Hai and Ning Mo both got into the jeep, Ge Dongyan's anger had already subsided. Qin Hai sat on the passenger seat, looked at Ge Dongyan, and asked, "Platoon Leader Ge, where are we going now?" ”
"Steel mills." Ge Dongyan replied.
"Is the steel mill done?" Qin Hai turned around and asked Ning Mo in the back row.
"That's it." Ning Mo said, "After you leave, I went to the county with Yu Haitao and Miao Lei to contact, and people ignored us at all." This time, after Platoon Commander Ge came, he went to the Economic Commission with a letter of introduction from the provincial military district, and the matter was settled. The county agreed to lease us the equipment at the steel mill on the condition that we be responsible for the electricity, water, and wear and tear of the equipment. ”
"Hehe, it's still the face of the troops." Qin Hai said to Ge Dongyan with a smile.
"No matter how big the face of the army is, it is not as big as the face of your Qin expert." Ge Dongyan replied angrily.
"Sins and sins, I really didn't know that this matter could be done so quickly, I thought it would take a few months." Qin Hai hurriedly apologized.
Qin Hai was so low-key, Ge Dongyan couldn't say anything more, he started the car to carry Qin Hai and Ning Mo in the direction of the steel plant, and at the same time simply introduced the relevant situation to Qin Hai.
It turned out that after Qin Hai and Yue Guoyang talked about the idea of exporting military shovels to Iran and Iraq, Yue Guoyang really went to his comrade-in-arms who was doing international arms trade, and asked him to help contact the military shovel business at a convenient time. Coincidentally, at this time, there happened to be an Iraqi military delegation visiting China, intending to import a batch of main battle equipment from China, and this comrade-in-arms of Yue Guoyang was responsible for receiving this delegation.
The Iraqi personnel are also from military backgrounds, and as soon as they saw the drawings, they understood the beauty of this kind of military shovel, and immediately their eyes lit up, and they asked for the introduction of 20,000 handles to equip the corps that was in a stalemate with the Iranian army on the front line. For such a deal, they did not need to ask for instructions from China, because in their opinion, the order amount of 20,000 military shovels was really pitiful.
Yue Guoyang's comrade-in-arms hurriedly informed Yue Guoyang of the news and asked him to seize the time to organize production and ensure supply. In addition, the comrade-in-arms also told Yue Guoyang that the Iraqis' requirements for the steel quality of the military shovel did not meet the standard of the military shovel in Yue Guoyang's hand, and they just hoped to have better anti-rust performance, because in the hot environment of the Gulf, the problem of metal rust is very serious.
After Yue Guoyang got the news, he immediately ordered Ge Dongyan to go to Pingyuan and inform Qin Hai to start production. Who knew that Ge Dongyan rushed over with fire, but Qin Hai went on a business trip, making Ge Dongyan wait for two days.
