The Soviet-style BTR40 armored personnel carrier imitated by the Chenguang Factory is powerful and sharp, with a sharp wedge-shaped front and a square tail, and a circle of fence-shaped armor is installed around the body, which is the crystallization of the collective wisdom of the factory, and the anti-rocket armor made with reference to the style of the wheeled armored vehicles of the US military stationed in Iraq.

Open the heavy cockpit door and drill in, the car is neat and neat, exuding the unique smell of cheap plastic products, the vehicle chassis and control equipment are purchased civilian truck systems, so the steering wheel and dashboard are slightly weak, the speedometer, oil and water temperature indicators are mechanical pointer type, at a glance, easy to maintain, the steering wheel is not assisted, it is difficult to rotate without point arm strength, the seat is artificial leather fabric with springs, sit on it and rattle, I am afraid that it will not feel too comfortable in the hot flashes of Africa, But in general it fully complied with, and even partially exceeded the requirements of the tender.

Although Liu Ziguang does not work in the factory, he also serves as the assistant to the factory director, so the master of the finished product warehouse stood next to him and said enthusiastically: "Assistant Liu, do you want to go out for a walk?" ”

"Okay......" Liu Ziguang tried to start the car, and a roar came, and the vibration of the engine was transmitted to his body through the seat, which felt like a heavy truck. He hung up the second gear and slowly drove the armored car out of the warehouse, moving forward at a constant speed in the factory area, there are two square plexiglass windows in front of the cockpit, the view is not very good, but military vehicles must be designed like this, in a combat environment, there are two iron plates above the window can be put down, only drive with the gaps in the iron plates, if you are not an experienced driver, I am afraid it is difficult to control.

Suddenly, someone on the side of the road yelled: "Stop! Who asked you to prescribe it? Liu Ziguang hurriedly stopped, opened the car door and said with a smile: "Old Brother Deng, it's me." ”

The person who came was Deng Yunfeng, the director of a workshop, and when he saw that it was Liu Ziguang, his face was much softer, and he climbed into the car and said, "Test drive?" ”

"yes, take a walk around and experience the ...... for the user," Mr. Liu said.

"Absolutely post, the armored vehicles produced by our factory, how can it be bad." Deng Yunfeng said proudly, "The prototype uses an in-line six-cylinder gasoline engine with 80 horsepower, and we use a four-cylinder heavy-duty truck diesel engine with 160 horsepower, which is strong and fuel-efficient, and the diesel engine is not easy to explode when it is bombed, which is much stronger than the gasoline engine." ”

"Oh, how about fuel consumption?"

"About 30 liters per 100 kilometers, which is not high for this car, after all, its own weight is five tons."

The armored car turned around in the factory test site, and its ability to cross the obstacle trench was stronger than expected, and the bulletproof ability also met the requirements, but another question came to Liu Ziguang's mind, where to find 50 people who can drive cars?

……

After coming out of the Chenguang factory, Liu Ziguang returned directly to the Red Star Company, with a thick stack of questionnaires on the desk, which was the basic investigation of all employees arranged by the company when he was away......

It is true that the overall quality of veterans is relatively high, they are militarily trained, they have strong discipline, and they have a sense of group honor, but there is another problem, that is, none of them like to fight.

For most people, being a soldier is a way of curvilinear employment, although now the state no longer places veterans for employment, but there are always a variety of local care policies, veterans employment also has an advantage over young people in society, there can be a hundred reasons to join the army, for them, learning technology, joining the party, going to military school, exercising will, and even defending the country is also a reasonable reason, but no one can say that I went to the army to learn the technique of killing......

Liu Ziguang rubbed his temples, picked up the internal phone and asked his foreman Shi Tao to go upstairs to talk, Shi Tao is a veteran of the Marine Brigade, has been trained in amphibious operations, can use a variety of light and heavy weapons, drives cars and speedboats, and has a very high overall quality, which is one of Liu Ziguang's most hopeful seedlings.

After a short time, a shout came from outside the door: "Report! ”

"Come in." Liu Ziguang said.

Shi Tao walked in with his head held high, saluted neatly, and stood upright.

"Take a break." Liu Ziguang said.

Shi Tao put his hands behind his back, his legs were shoulder-width apart, and he stood majestically in front of Mr. Liu waiting for questioning.

Liu Ziguang asked Shi Tao to sit down, and asked in a homely manner: "Have you had any difficulties in work and life recently?" What are the organizational requirements? ”

"Report to Mr. Liu! I am very satisfied with the current situation, the company's efficiency is not good and still supports us, the comrades are very grateful, what orders does Mr. Liu have, we will absolutely implement ......"

Looking at Shi Tao, who was sitting straight, Liu Ziguang smiled softly, threw a cigarette and said, "Don't be restrained, chat, how much money can you get every month now?" Looking for a match? ”

Shi Tao took out a lighter to help Mr. Liu light a cigarette first, and then he lit a puff and said: "The monthly basic salary is 1,000 and a half, overtime pay, lunch allowance, night shift subsidy, all the mess is added together, you can have more than 2,000 a month, girlfriend...... Hey. ”

"What are you laughing at, tell me, whose girl do you like?" Liu Ziguang said with a smile.

Shi Tao scratched his head: "I know a girl who serves dishes in a restaurant, she looks good, and she is okay." ”

"Yes, when will you eat your candy?"

"Early, how can I get married without a house now, people are willing to marry, and I am embarrassed to marry, I want to work hard for another two years, and strive to buy a smaller second-hand house, and I have to live like this......"

Liu Ziguang praised: "I can't see that Xiaoshi is quite good at living, but now the house price is rising crazy every year, just with the salary of the two of you, I am afraid it will be difficult to come up with a down payment in two years." ”

Shi Tao frowned, sighed deeply and said: "My parents said, sell the old house in the family, and then take out all the savings of the past few decades, if it doesn't rise again, maybe you can make a down payment, it's a big deal to borrow more, and then you have to ask the company to come up with an income certificate or something, maybe you have to ask Mr. Liu for help." ”

Liu Ziguang said: "The income certificate company can help you open it at any time, but have you thought about it, our Red Star Company's efficiency is not good, and the situation is getting worse, if you are unemployed, who will repay the loan?" ”

Shi Tao was stunned for a moment, he suddenly realized the reason why Mr. Liu was talking to him, could it be that the company was really bad?

After pondering for a while, Shi Tao sighed and said: "Brother Liu, you are a good person, everyone understands that it is difficult for the company to leave the country, we are idle all day long, in fact, everyone is prepared in their hearts, even if the company is gone, we are also Brother Liu's people, no matter what happens, as long as you say a word!" ”

"Don't talk about me, tell me your plans, in case the company goes bankrupt, how will you make a living?"

"It's not that I haven't thought about it, I want to help people open a taxi, be a second driver, set up a stall in the night market, and let me do it, but now it's hard to find a job, neither of us has a high degree of education, and we don't have any skills, so that's the ......"

"That's right, Xiaoshi, a friend asked me to find a driver, but the place of work is a bit far away, in Africa, and the place is a bit chaotic, fighting all day long, the salary is not low, at least more than 8,000, do you want to think about it." Liu Ziguang tentatively threw out this topic......

Shi Tao lowered his head and smoked violently, did not answer the question immediately, and said after a while: "If it was a job like the last time in Myanmar, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to do it." ”

"Okay, it's okay, you go back first, help me call Lin Hao in." Liu Ziguang said.

Lin Hao is also a backbone employee of the Red Star Company, he once served as a compulsory soldier in the anti-aircraft artillery brigade for two years, and his military quality is quite good, Liu Ziguang once recommended him to be a driver for a period of time for the original Mayor of Zhou, and later Mayor Zhou was promoted to the provincial capital as the director of education, and Lin Hao returned to Red Star to continue to be a security guard.

Like Shi Tao, Lin Hao is also a city soldier, but his personality is more easy-going, he walked into the office and nodded and smiled: "Mr. Liu, are you looking for me?" ”

"Yes, Xiaolin, let's talk to you, it's okay lately, if there are any troubles to be solved by the organization in time." Liu Ziguang said.

"Thank you for your concern, it's okay recently, the salary is enough to spend, and the time is sufficient......" Lin Hao is the company's driver, and his salary is about the same as Shi Tao's, and it is about 2,000 yuan.

Lin Hao is a clever young man, Liu Ziguang didn't make so many detours, and asked directly: "The company's business development in the past two years has not been very good, and everyone knows that I have a friend who has a business in Africa and needs some drivers, with a monthly salary of more than 8,000 and various insurances, but the place is not very peaceful, are you interested in doing this?" ”

"I ...... Mr. Liu, this is too sudden, can you give me a little time to think about it? Lin Hao replied.

"Okay, there's no rush on this matter, you can go back and think about it." Liu Ziguang sent him back and stopped calling people up, Shi Tao and Lin Hao's reaction was enough to represent most people, they wanted a stable and peaceful life, even if they lived poorly, it was better than making a lot of money and spending their lives......

When Liu Ziguang went downstairs, he noticed that the atmosphere in the security room seemed to be a little depressing, some people were talking to each other, some people were sighing, probably the two conversations made them feel that the company's limit had arrived.

To be honest, Mr. Liu is really good to them, since the establishment of the Red Star Company, the business volume is very small, and most of the property security positions take care of those laid-off workers in their forties and fifties.

Seeing Mr. Liu go downstairs, the young men all poured out, looking at Liu Ziguang with expectant eyes, wanting to speak and stopping, Liu Ziguang knew what they wanted to say, and smiled: "Don't have any ideas, everyone." ”

"Mr. Liu, why don't we also open a bathing center!" Suddenly, someone shouted, Liu Ziguang understood what he meant, now the most profitable business is still to get out of the way, bathing centers, entertainment clubs, black casinos and other places come to make money quickly, and they also need a large number of good players who can dare to fight, according to the resources that Liu Ziguang can master, doing this is the right way.

What they can't understand the most is that Mr. Liu doesn't seem to care about the side business at all, the bathing center is lost to Zhuo Li, the sand digging field is run by Wang Zhijun's daughter-in-law, and the earthwork team is also contracted to a few friends, but he has opened a security company that does not make money, and there is an airline that has no business, and a lot of money is thrown into it every month, and there is no benefit at all, which is really strange to think about.

Liu Ziguang stretched out his hand and pressed it, reassuring everyone: "The company will not collapse for a while, even if it is closed, I will help you arrange a way out." ”

……

With a full heart, Liu Ziguang came to Xuanzi's auto repair factory, where ten battle flag jeeps were simply modified, the roof was welded with a pivot for installing a machine gun, the doors and soft top were removed, for light off-road vehicles, reducing the load is the most important thing, the thin body can not withstand bullets at all, it is not as convenient as dismantling.

Xuanzi said: "Brother Liu, the last time you told me about opening a car repair station in a foreign country, I thought about it, I am reluctant to let the child catch the wolf, this job is capable, I have found more than a dozen people, as long as you say a word, you can pull it over in minutes." ”

Liu Ziguang asked: "Didn't you tell them that work is more dangerous?" ”

Xuanzi said disdainfully: "Dangerous? It's not dangerous to do anything, who can guarantee that you won't go out and let the car hit and die, these people I'm looking for, let alone go to work in war-torn areas, just let them carry guns to fight, these boys don't have a word. ”

Liu Ziguang wondered: "I said Xuanzi, where did you find these outlaws?" ”

Xuanzi smiled: "Brother, you don't understand this, this kind of person is everywhere." ”

On Chinese New Year's Eve, let's have another chapter for everyone to read on Chinese New Year's Eve.
