The annual ring of time rolled to New Year's Day 1988, and the Chinese people entered the tenth year of reform and opening up.

This day is special for Liu Fushun. Two months ago, he took the train for the first time and after more than 30 hours of bumpy ride, he came from Haixi to this new city: the Guangsha Special Economic Zone, the forefront of reform and opening up. After two months of pre-job training, starting today, he will work with hundreds of colleagues in the center of the city's planning to build a modern urban ark.

Ma Ziang was once again ordered to move to the south to design and supervise the construction of a "financial and electronic industry city system" for the special economic zone.

The exhibition of ten years of achievements in urban construction kicked off in Guangsha Plaza. Ten years ago, the small fishing village is gone, replaced by high-rise buildings and wide streets, and although many construction sites are still under construction, it is already foreseeable that in the near future, it will be a new gateway to China!

Along with Fushun went south were his three fellow villagers. Huajian Third Bureau adopted the method recommended by the project department, and the first batch of 500 temporary workers and 100 skilled workers were selected and transferred to more than 100 project sites. Starting in the new year, they will also recruit workers from all over the country.

The branch of the Third Bureau in Guangsha has already been prepared, and the management personnel have been stationed here two years ago. According to the latest division of labor of the bureau's party group, Ma Ziang is in charge of the South China area. In order to create a new business card for the special economic zone, the central leadership also personally met with this professor-level senior engineer who had just returned from Switzerland -- the burden of bearing was on his shoulders.

Coincidentally, Hu Mingquan, one of the project managers of the southbound project, once again became the person in charge of the "Electronic Building" of Fushun's project. This little fat man with a mustache has his own "way of being an official".

Hu Mingquan is a native of Haixi, in his thirties, his father is a veteran of Huajian Third Bureau, and his son took up the post after Lao Hu's retirement, and he also went to a regular school to study for three years, but he was 108,000 miles worse than Lao Hu in engineering technology. However, Lao Hu's prestige in the bureau is still there, many apprentices have taken leadership positions, and Hu Ming's head is turning fast. Observing words and emotions and slapping horses are his forte, so he is also a popular figure in the bureau.

Hu Mingquan has a small notebook, and the characters in the bureau and subordinate companies above his status are clearly remembered, each person's relationship background, family members, temperament and character, personal likes and dislikes, and so on. He made a comprehensive summary. This book is a "top-secret file", and no one knows about it except himself. Ma Ziang's "file" is about seven or eight pages long, and the word "hobby" on it is written with two words - "woman".

Fu Shun and the three fellows of "Tie Guan Li", "Wang Luzi" and "Zhu Xuanzui" were able to come to Guangsha, and Hu Mingquan was a great help. Of course, this is also inseparable from the treasure chest of "Iron Kidnapper". Lao Li not only has a "treasure chest", but also a "jack of all trades", before the project ended, he heard that the project was going to select people to come to Guangsha, he used Fushun to sit in Mr. Ma's car to make a fuss, and poured a lot of ** soup to Manager Hu, saying that Liu Fushun was selected by Ma Ziang as a door-to-door son-in-law or something, Liu Mingquan didn't think much about it, anyway, he had to choose people, if that was the case, who wouldn't do this shunshui favor?

Of course. Fushun didn't know this. When a few fellow villagers smiled and helped him move the book to the train station, Ma Yunmei really appeared. However, she did not come to see off Fushun, but to say goodbye to her father.

She was wearing a black coat, and her long hair and coat were the same color, beckoning to Fushun from afar. The first time Fu Shun saw the train, he almost fell down when he looked around, and he didn't pay attention to the girl who was bending over with a smile.

"Liu Fushun!" Yunmei's leather shoes "clucked", trotted to Fu Shun, and picked up the book he had dropped on the ground.

"Yunmei? What are you doing here? ”

"I'll send my dad, will you also go to Guangsha?"

"Hmm. Does Mr. Ma also take the train? In Fushun's view, a leader like Mr. Ma should take a plane.

"Yes! Are you still going back to Hercyni? Another train on the platform has started, "clang" running on the tracks.

"I don't know, it's the same everywhere for me!"

"I'm coming to you on winter vacation. When you come to Guangsha, you want to invite me to dinner! Yunmei smiled, and the radio was already urging to get in the car.

"Okay, when the time comes, you look for me, and I'll treat you to a big dinner!" Fu Shun said the word "big meal" very seriously, for fear that the voice on the radio would drown it out. According to the contract, as long as the training is qualified. The monthly salary in Guangsha is more than 300! The "big meal" was not stressful for him.

"It's a deal!" Yun Mei stretched out the little finger of her right hand and looked at this simplely dressed but handsome young man. Fu Shun shyly stretched out his little finger and hooked Yun Mei like a housekeeper, then waved his stiff right hand and got into the crowded carriage.

Fu Shun sat down against the window, the train was already moving slowly, and Yunmei was left behind. As he was about to leave the station, he seemed to see a familiar shadow at the end of the platform, but the shadow quickly disappeared.

He must not have known that Xiang Yu was waiting in that corner early, and it was only because of his conversation with Ma Yunmei that she was discouraged.

Guangsha is no better than Haixi, although it is also a city, but it is not mature at all, and at night, the streets seem a little deserted, sparse pedestrians speak in the south and north, and cars also have license plates from all over the country......

To the excitement of the temporary workers, the winters are not cold at all, and they are also housed in special dormitories, with only four people in a room. Fushun's books filled the two iron cabinets, and the three fellows had to rearrange their rows.

"I'm exhausted!" Lao Wang was the first to push open the door and lay on the bed with his head on his heels, "Damn, the thirty-story building is still covered with the foundation and exterior wall after 200 days, and it can't stand ......"

Lao Zhu threw his helmet on the table and poured a glass of water, "Don't hum, it's much better than you squatting on the street!" Besides, the bureau has not talked about it, and when the time comes, it will be possible to turn into a regular worker! ”

"Turnaround workers? Oh (lie) your baby is so good! 'Tie Guan Li', you have a lot of eyes, and you can go to see the materials too! The "madman" sat up and looked at Lao Li with blank eyes.

"I don't have that ability! Shovel, isn't it the New Year of the Gregorian calendar today? The company didn't get anything at all? ”

"Mean? It means that you will go to work today! Look at Fushun, as soon as he arrived at the construction site, he was like a chicken blood, and he picked up a notebook to write and draw everywhere. Fushun, are you afraid that one day you will become an engineer too? Lao Zhu smiled and patted Fushun on the shoulder.

"Big brothers, don't wash me! Let's go, let's drink and go! Fu Shun took out a notebook and a pen from his trouser pocket and threw them in the cabinet, ready to invite a few big brothers out to dinner, which was something he decided in the morning.

"Drinking? Fushun, what's a good thing? "Wang Luzi" excitedly approached Fushun.

"Chinese New Year! We were also spending the New Year, and I saw a seafood restaurant outside......"

"I'm afraid it's not delicious, it smells very fishy!" Lao Zhu said.

"Tie Guan Li", the only one of the four who had eaten seafood, heard that he was going to go down to the restaurant, so he quickly opened the treasure chest and found two bottles of good wine, "It's not fishy, it's not fishy, crabs and shrimp eat very comfortably, hurry, go, you have a treat, I'll make a drink!" ”

A few people talked and laughed and went to the "New Year...... (To be continued.) )
