Chapter 45: The Red Star Convoy

The day after getting the order, the bureau sent ten big fat pigs to the machine repair factory as a reward for the machine repair factory. The fat pig was squealing in the cage behind the truck, attracting envious glances from passers-by.

Pork is a luxury that is not something that can be eaten normally.

Several masters in the cooking room in the factory have been preparing for a long time.

Kill the pig, set up a few cauldrons in the factory yard, stew pork directly, the workers sing and dance around the pot, and the meat is fragrant.

The technicians who were far away at the headquarters found that while they were writing manuscripts, there was a puddle of saliva on their desks.

"This Zhao Yuemin is too unusual! The stewed pork is so fragrant! Gao Zhiguo smelled the fragrance at the office window, became furious, stood up and picked up the lunch box and said, "Su Bureau, I'm going to criticize and guide them." ”

After the pork was stewed, several masters scooped a full box of pork first and asked people to send it to the factory director. Zhao Yuemin saw the box of pork that was about to be full in the office, smiled slightly, took the lunch box, and returned home to honor his father.

Zhao Chunda was also very happy to hear that the machine repair factory had an order at home. He knew that his son had taken another solid step, and the position of factory director was secure.

Zhao Chunda's evaluation of Zhao Yuemin has also been raised by an unprecedented level, from "you are not as good as one of my fingers" to "you are stupid but quite diligent".

All-you-can-eat pork, production plan in place. Zhao Yuemin began to attack the messy workshop. Early one morning, he came to the workshop in person, poked open the sealed honeycomb coal stove, picked up a big broom, and swept the road at the door himself.

When the workers and cadres who went to work saw the factory director sweeping the road in person, they immediately understood the intention of the factory director this time, and they all consciously picked up their brooms to "sweep the snow in front of them".

Zhao Yuemin asked people to rebuild the flower beds in the factory yard, making a green onion full of vitality. He also asked people to build a warm house and invited a gardener, saying that he could clean the dust in the workshop and control the quality of the product.

The whole factory then stopped work for another day, and all the windows were cleaned and swept, and the previously black and greasy windows were wiped to a shiny finish.

In the past, the old factory director Duan Qiming repeatedly held meetings to emphasize the things, but now Zhao Yuemin only needs one sentence, and the workers in the factory will consciously do it.

The fire of the main boiler is burning, the sonorous sound of the machine tools of the production line is continuous, the workers are full of energy, and the machine repair plant is thriving.

After Zhao Yuemin's side stabilized, his brother Hu Dong was also seeing the opportunity and preparing to transform. Although the small restaurant is doing well, it is also facing more opponents. New private restaurants were opening one after another, and soon the street was full. The rise of the individual economy almost ended the monopoly of the collective economy in the townships.

Hu Dong and his Red Star Hotel staff understood that there were so many people in the town, and the more restaurants, the less profit they would have, and they had to transform into a new field.

Hu Dong used the money earned from the Red Star Hotel to buy two small trucks and rent a fishing boat to move and pull goods for the families of workers and residents of the town.

After Zhao Yuemin learned the news, he laughed and said that Hu Dong was the development of the navy and the army.

Jiangbei Oilfield has vertical and horizontal rivers, many bridges, narrow roads, many sidewalks, mixed traffic, and poor transportation conditions. Sometimes it needs to be transported by car, sometimes by ship, and sometimes by land.

It stands to reason that the Jiangbei Oilfield workers' families need furniture transportation, or send them to individuals, pull a cargo or something, which can be arranged by the Oilfield Transportation Department. After all, the purpose of the establishment of the transportation department is to serve the production and construction of the oilfield and the life of employees. However, in the early days of the battle in the oil fields, there were few vehicles and ships, and various projects were rushed, and the transportation contradiction was very prominent. Even if the driver and crew have no rest days and work overtime, they cannot meet the demand for vehicles in engineering construction. In this way, not to mention the car used by the family members of the employees.

Hu Dong saw the opportunity, bought two small trucks, and began to promote transportation services at his Red Star Hotel, but he didn't expect the effect to be good. The families of oilfield workers also have a comparison in their hearts, although the use of a car from the transportation office is free, but it has to be scheduled, to make an appointment, and usually to book a month in advance. The driver will deliver the goods to you, and you have to deliver a cigarette and a bottle of wine no matter what.

Hu Dong's Red Star team is different, on call, the price is fair, and the driver is kind. In this way, everyone is willing to use Hu Dong's team.

Hu Dong's business is getting better and better, and the small truck has also been upgraded to a Dongfeng brand truck, which can carry people and goods. However, Hu Dong did not expect that half a month later, his team ushered in a new opportunity.

That day, Zhao Yuemin met Xiao Dekai, the chief of the transportation section, in the bureau. Xiao Dekai had a sad face, squatting in the corner and smoking.

"Dekai, what's wrong?" Zhao Yuemin asked.

"Yo, Yuemin. I'm unlucky with shallots and tofu. Xiao Dekai sighed.

The people in the bureau actually like Xiao Dekai, because the section chief of the transportation department is very arrogant all day long, and he is also very humorous.

"What's wrong, Dekai?"

"Isn't this the batch of Daqing 130 drilling rigs ordered by the bureau already out of the factory?" Xiao Dekai took an anxious puff of smoke and said, "I have to send a car to Heilongjiang to pull the machine." But you also know that the trucks of our transportation department have just returned from the Xinjiang oil field to complete the task. The drivers ran for half a month, and they were all tired to death. Moreover, as far as our 58-year-old Jiefang is concerned, two engines have failed, you say, people can't do it, cars can't do it, what should I do if I have a tomato scrambled egg? ”

"It's really not okay, let Daqing Oilfield get out of the car?" Zhao Yuemin suggested.

"Let the grandfathers of Daqing deliver the goods to us? Do you think it's possible? ”

"I do have a friend who has two liberations and a driver."

"Okay, Zhao Yuemin, it's a bit of a capitalist." Xiao Dekai's eyes suddenly lit up, "Or, you helped me out of this car?" ”

"You are a regular army. We're just guerrillas, okay? Zhao Yuemin hesitated.

"Definitely. Dead horses should be live horse doctors. If you don't get out of the car, I, Xiao Dekai, will not be able to complete the task, and will be scolded by the Soviet Bureau and Daqing Grandpa, wouldn't it be even worse? In this case, as the head of the transportation section, I will give you a note, and then send two drivers to sit in the co-pilot and show you the way, how about it? ”

"Okay. That's fine. Zhao Yuemin nodded.

He immediately found Hu Dong, found a friend, borrowed a car, and scraped together five Dongfeng, plus the transportation department made up three more Jiefang, and eight trucks set off to Daqing, Heilongjiang to get the drilling rig.

Half a month later, eight trucks returned on schedule, Xiao Dekai breathed a long sigh of relief and invited Zhao Yuemin and Hu Dong to have a meal.

"I mean, you've done me a great favor this time. I don't think it's as good as this, if I'm short of vehicles in the transport department in the future, I'll borrow it from you, what do you think? Xiao Dekai smiled and gave Hu Dong a cigarette.

Hu Dong looked at Zhao Yuemin, who understood and said: "Section Chief Xiao, my friend Dongzi's team, after all, is not a regular army, every time I help you, I have to wait for you to approve the slips, which is too troublesome and affects the efficiency of doing business." I don't think it's better to do this, let's figure out if we can attach this fleet to your transportation section. When we have nothing to do, we run the business by ourselves, do the tertiary production, and when there is something, we are waiting for your dispatch. ”

The current situation was originally that there were fewer cars and more projects. Zhao Yuemin understands that if his fleet can be included in the transportation department, it will greatly help Xiao Dekai's pressure to get out of the car.

After hearing this, Hu Dong said suspiciously: "Is it feasible for our miscellaneous army to be attached to the transportation department?" ”

"Why not?" Xiao Dekai waved his hand and said, "I am a section chief of the transportation department, and Yuemin is the director of a machine repair factory, can't the two of them handle this little thing?" Wrap it around me. ”
