Lin Zhenhua found Cao Shulin's home according to the address left to him by Cao Shulin a few years ago. This is a row of bungalows located in the family area of the factory, and like the Hanhua Machinery Factory in the past, there are some small kitchens, storage rooms and chicken coops in front of the bungalows, and groups of Luhua chickens come and go to forage for food in the front and back of the house, which is an idyllic scene.

The day Lin Zhenhua arrived, it happened to be a Sunday, and a group of children were playing some game outside, singing with incomplete notes while playing:

"We workers have power, hey, we workers have power

Busy every day, hey, busy every day......"

Hearing this song, Lin Zhenhua smiled heartily, and he remembered that Cao Shulin sang this song on the viewing platform next to the Tiananmen Gate Tower a few years ago. At that time, Cao Shulin also said that this was the only song he could sing. It seems that this old Cao has not sung much at home, and he has also sung with the children around him.

Lin Zhenhua was about to catch a leading child to ask Cao Shulin's family which room they lived in, when he heard an angry scolding from a door: "Don't sing, sing something else!" ”

Lin Zhenhua was a little familiar when he heard this voice, and as soon as his heart moved, he walked towards the house. When I walked to the door, I heard a female voice inside persuading, "What are you doing, the children are having a good time, singing some songs." ”

"Don't sing this, I'm annoyed to listen to it." The voice from before said.

"Didn't you say you liked to hear this the most?"

"That was in the past, and now TMD gets annoyed when I hear this song. We workers have the power of a TMD fart! Alas......"

With a sigh, Cao Shulin walked out of the door. He stood by the door, a cigarette in his hand, his brow furrowed, and his eyes were blank as he stared at the group of children. Lin Zhenhua saw that Cao Shulin's body was still so strong, but his expression was very different from 3 years ago, as if his soul had been drained.

"Lao Cao!" Lin Zhenhua stepped forward and greeted.

Cao Shulin inadvertently turned his head, and when he saw Lin Zhenhua, he was stunned for a moment, and then a warm smile appeared on his face: "Xiaolin? Ah, no, no, Manager Lin, why are you here? Quick, please sit in the room. ”

Before Lin Zhenhua could say anything, he was dragged into the house by Cao Shulin and forced to sit down on a sofa. Cao Shulin is worthy of being a porter, with great strength, and his movements are sharp, Lin Zhenhua didn't even have a chance to be polite. After settling Lin Zhenhua and sitting down, Cao Shulin pulled his stunned wife who was standing aside and said to her: "Tianxia, let me introduce you, this is Manager Lin, Lin Zhenhua, deputy general manager of Jiangnan Hanhua Heavy Industry Group Company, capable!" I told you about it. ”

Subsequently, he introduced his wife to Lin Zhenhua and said: "Manager Lin, this is my wife, He Tianxia, a housewife, no culture, no knowledge, no level, typical three-no products." ”

He Tianxia punched Cao Shulin in disgust, and then said to Lin Zhenhua: "Manager Lin, don't listen to his nonsense, I am more educated than him." I work in a national cotton factory and work as a car stopper. ”

"Pull it down, you haven't been paid in your factory for many months, and you're still a car blocker." Cao Shulin pretended to be disdainful and said.

"Hello, hello? Isn't your factory only half of the salary? Our factory also sent 200 meters of cotton cloth to one person, isn't that money? He Tianxia didn't give up an inch of land, Lin Zhenhua saw the straightforwardness of the Shandong sister-in-law, and at the same time heard the dilemma they faced from the conversation between the two. Both of them are employees of state-owned enterprises, and many state-owned enterprises have had a hard time in recent years, and it is not uncommon for them to be paid in kind in lieu of wages.

"Lao Cao, sister-in-law, I'm here to see you this time." Lin Zhenhua hurriedly spoke, saving the two of them from continuing to quarrel.

Cao Shulin stopped attacking his wife at this time, and he waved his hand at He Tianxia and said, "Tianxia, go kill a chicken, and let Manager Lin eat at home at noon today." ”

He Tianxia also seemed to realize that it was a little inappropriate to expose her family ugliness in front of the guests, she smiled apologetically at Lin Zhenhua, and went out to arrange lunch. Although life at home is stressful, a hearty lunch cannot be saved when guests come from afar. This was a time when state-owned enterprises had just failed, and the workers still retained a sense of reserve, or self-esteem. After He Tianxia went out, Cao Shulin sat down opposite Lin Zhenhua and handed Lin Zhenhua a cigarette. Lin Zhenhua waved his hand and signaled that he would not smoke. Cao Shulin nodded and said, "By the way, I remembered, you don't know how to smoke." Well, Manager Lin, how did you come to Qingdao? ”

Lin Zhenhua said: "Lao Cao, my ass is not hot yet, you have called me Manager Lin 800 times, I remember, you called me Xiaolin in the past." ”

Cao Shulin hesitated for a moment, smiled self-deprecatingly, and said: "At that time, I was too crazy, I always felt that I was a model worker, and I really didn't take a manager in my eyes, and now it's not as good as in the past." ”

Cao Shulin's words were light, and Lin Zhenhua listened to them in his ears, but he was full of taste. He said softly: "Lao Cao, I don't care how you call others, if you still treat me as a friend, then call me Xiaolin." As I told you, I was also a porter. If you think of me as Manager Lin, then I'll turn around and leave. ”

Cao Shulin smiled and said, "Okay, listen to you, just call you Xiaolin." Actually, I've always known that you, Xiaolin, are a loyal person. At the Model Worker Meeting, you didn't think of yourself as a manager, and you mixed with us ordinary workers every day. We are from Shandong and like to make loyal friends. ”

"Lao Cao, I listened to you and sister-in-law talking just now, it seems that the factories of both of you are no longer good?" Lin Zhenhua asked.

Cao Shulin sighed and said: "Isn't it not impossible, the products in the factory are aging, and the leaders are focused on reform, but they don't have the heart to focus on production." We are the same as the old three, obviously unsellable, or vigorously produce, as a result, all the inventory is backlogged, and finally the factory collapses. Now there is no working capital in the factory, production has completely stopped, and we are all staying at home and receiving half of our wages. There seems to be a term, called laid-off. ”

Lin Zhenhua nodded, the word laid-off has just entered people's field of vision, and in a few years, it will become a word that everyone knows and everyone knows.

"How could it be like this?" Lin Zhenhua didn't know what to say, so he could only express a sentence of emotion.

Cao Shulin said: "Isn't this just reform." Haven't you heard people say, the current society is like this, the boss is on the side, the second is divided, the ninth is ascending to the sky, and he makes money without hesitation. ”

Lin Zhenhua smiled bitterly, Cao Shulin read this slippery mouth, Lin Zhenhua had also heard it. In the traditional concept of our country, there is a saying that workers, peasants, businessmen, and soldiers are studied. The workers are the big brother and have now stepped aside, of course, this mainly refers to the employees of state-owned enterprises. The peasants are the second in line, and in recent years, the fields have been divided into households, and their lives have improved much compared to the past.

Lao Jiu refers to intellectuals, that is, the so-called "stinky Lao Jiu". There are two theories about the ranking of Lao Jiu, one is from the model drama "Outwitting Tiger Mountain", in which Yang Zirong broke into the bandits and was named Lao Jiu; The second argument comes from the discrimination against intellectuals in those ten years, ranking their status behind "the rich and the bad right, and the traitorous spies and capitalist roaders", which happens to be the ninth.

Since the reform, the state has advocated respect for knowledge and talent, and the social status of intellectuals has been greatly improved. In fact, there was no special improvement in the treatment of intellectuals at that time, and there was also a saying that building missiles was better than selling tea and eggs.

In the end, there is the group of people who are not careful, referring to the first people who went to the sea to do business, which belonged to the alternative in the eyes of people back then, but it was precisely these people who made money, which did not make the bosses feel resentful.

"Xiaolin, did you really come to see me this time?" Cao Shulin finished complaining and began to get down to business.

Lin Zhenhua nodded and said, "Yes, didn't you call our company to find me?" I happened to be on a business trip in Shanghai, and someone in the company told me that I would stop by. ”

"Well, it's embarrassing to make you run." Cao Shulin sincerely expressed his apology, "Actually, I don't have anything to do, it's just ......"

Speaking of this, he hesitated a little, as if he didn't know whether to say it or not. He is honest by nature, and when he encounters this kind of begging for help, his face is a little unbearable.

Lin Zhenhua said: "Lao Cao, between our brothers, what else is there to say?" Tell me what you want. Cao Shulin said coyly: "That's the case, Xiaolin, you have also seen that the factories on both sides of me and your sister-in-law are now in a recession, and I don't know if they will succeed in the future." I have a father and a mother in my family, and I have children below, so I can't make money like this. So, I'm discussing with your sister-in-law, I want to learn from those self-employed people outside, get a stall, and start a small business......"

"Hmm." Lin Zhenhua nodded, did not interrupt Cao Shulin's words, and let him continue.

Cao Shulin paused for a while, and finally mustered up the courage to say: "If you want to do a small business, you have to have some capital." Your sister-in-law and I have a lot of burdens on our families, and we don't have much savings over the years. I want to borrow some from my colleagues, everyone's life is very tight, and no one can borrow money. Later, I thought of you......"

"You're calling, are you looking for me to borrow money?" Lin Zhenhua asked. In fact, as early as when Xiang Zhe told him about it, he had already guessed that this was the case, if it wasn't for such a thing as borrowing money, Cao Shulin would not be willing to spend long-distance phone bills to call Xunyang, and a phone call would cost seven or eight yuan.

Cao Shulin embarrassedly admitted, "Yes." I've seen several reports in the newspaper about your Hanhua Heavy Industries, with your name on it. I estimate that your company has good benefits, and you are a leader, and the bonuses and benefits may not be less, maybe you have some living money on hand. However, I'm just asking first, if you don't have it with your hands, it's okay, I'll think of another way. ”。 ）
